thence to be loaded direct on chips or

Difference In Billing.
In this case, however, the ties were
sent via the S. P. & S. to Bans, where
they were creouoted, and then loaded
on the steamer Kenkon Maru for an
Indian port. This difference In billing
paused ti e Southern Pacific to charge
tha regular 6-cent local rate.
J. H. Mulchay, assistant general
freight agent of tha Southern Pacific,
came up from San Francisco to testify
at this and other cases to be consid
ered by the commission. On the wit
ness stand he told of frauds perpe
trated upon the railroad by some ship
pers under this special export rate,
which almost resulted In its cancella

In May, 1915, Mr. Mulchay said, he

A. TI. Devers, In a complaint of Clos

rates were charged by the Northern
Pacific on a carload of tea In bags
from Seattle to Portland, testified that
his company had bought the tea which
had been salvaged from a fire. The

the extra charge was made. He asks ;

AT
E
OF SOME
Attempt Planned to Prevent
Solicitors From Persuading
Passersby to Enter Stores,
An attempt is to be made to prohibit
jewelers employing solicitor to drum
up trade by persuading passersby to
enter their stores. The council this
morning Instructed City Attorney La
Roche to draft an ordinance which. If
adopted, will abolish the practice.
The action came after Commissioner
Blgelow had atempted to have the
license held by M. Silverman, a Jeweler
of 138 Sixth street, for two solicitors,
revoked.
Owners of stores adjoining the jew
elry store stated, that solicitor for
Silverman "grabbed people from off
the street and emlled them Into the
Jewelry store."
Max Silverman, a cousin of the Jew
eler, charged that people were fleeced
in the store.
"I worked for him." said Silverman.
"He's my cousin. I'll give you the
dope on this place. They grab a man
and pull him in. If he's an old man
and wears glasses, they'll look at his
glasses and switch lens on him, I got
paid $15 a week but that wasn't enough
to mm me seopi. -rney sell a

they do business."

Alter nearing tne case Commis
sioner Dleclc moved to dispose of the
entire matter but he was checked, by
Commissioner Daly, who moved that

eweiers from employing solicitors
Commissioner Bigelow seconded the
motion and the ordinance is to be acted
on -noay.
PASSED DESPITE A PROTEST
To Aid Operation of Privately
Owned Autos in Fire Department.
Over the protest of Commissioner
Baker the council today adopted an
ordinance appropriating $10 a month
in oil, gasoline, tires, etor, for three
privately-owned automobiles used in
tn nre prevention work. The or
dinance originally provided for giBO-
line, tires, etc., up to $10 a month
for all privately-owned machines in
tne city's service.
Commissioner Dieck sought to have
the council purchase a small auto
mobile for use in the bureau of sur
veys buf Commissioner Baker blocked
tne passage of the ordinance today.
It had an emergency clause attached
but with Commissioner Baker's opposi
tion couia ds given only first and
second readings.
TANNER CREEK SEWER PLANS
Cost to Bo Met by City to I Jo
Determined.
The city council In special session
tomorrow afternoon is to determine
how much of the cost of reconstruct
ing the Tanner creek sewer is to be
borne by the city. The cost of recon
struction is estimated at $287,087.
which amount includes $260,808 for
new construction. $550 for the removal
of debris. $10,805 for filling the old
sewer, $1706 for changing- nlumblnar
connectlons to residences effected and
$13,668.45 for engineering.
Commissioner Dieck told the coun
cil this morning that the city should
bear a portion of the cost, probably
that for the removal of debris, the
filling of the old sewer and changing
the plumbing connections. The coun
cil postponed consideration until to
morrow. AH Dogs Look Alike.
The city council did not give much
consideration today to the plea of men
of B company of the Third Oregon to
allow them to keep their-dog without
tbe payment of a license.
Arthur D. Sullivan, quartermaster of
the company, in a letter to tb coun
cil said that the, dog bad performed
valuable service on the border, often
doing sentry and scout duty, and
should be exempted from being re
quired to wear a license tag. The let

Colonel Clenard Mclaughlin Is
likely to be ordered to duty in the
regular army by the war department
at any time. His term on detached
service under what ia known as the
"Manchu law." expired last August,
but because he was In command of
the Third Oreeon at a time when It
was In active service, he was made
an exception. It is expected that be
will be given two months' leave of
absence before receiving his new as
signment to duty.
Upon his eing relieved of the
command of the Third Oregon there
will be an election held by the staff
officers and company commanders ot
an officer to succeed him. While
in. theory they may select any Na
tional Guard officer, it Is expected
that they will ask for the appoint
ment of some regular army officer.
Major U. G. McAlexander, now inspector-instructor
of the Third Ore
gon, is prominently mentioned as a
possible successor.
Colonel McLaughlin was placed at
the head of the regiment while inspector-Instructor,
when Colonel C. Jl.
Martin was relieved of command.
Colonel McAlexander waa named as
commander of the regiment by the
war department to succeed Mc
Laughlin last July. Colonel McAlex

In-command of the citizens' auxiliary
