Authority to construct a tunnel

a huge ependiture for the volume - of
traffic carried over this section of the
Southern .Pacific. : "
Prior, to the : war the Southern Pacific
had planned' the construction of . a pas
senger cutoffs between Portland and
Canby s which would save about five
miles in the distance of the haul between
those points, cut out the Milwaukie hill
and place the Southern Pacif io on fa
competitive basis for traffic from the

letters introduced In the case as written
by Fred Beauvais, the Indian guide, was
called a cur by Mrs. Stillman's counsel
during the hearing.
.Kelly. H is said identified the writing
in seven "love letters" as that of -Beauvais,
saying he knew the writing since
he and the guide had corresponded. Dur

Mrs. Stillman had been kind' to both
Beauvais and Kelly, both employes.
"So you are the contemptible cur," sar

With Skull Fractured; Gun and
Star Gone, but Money Intact.
Charles A. -Allen, a special deputy
sheriff, . with a beat on Portland
Heights where he is employed as a
night watchman, was found early
this morning lying in the street at

semi-conscious condition, hlo .police
star and revolver gone, but his watch
and money still in his pockets.
Physicians who examined him at his
home stated that he had a fractured
skull and severe injuries to the scalp. -HELPLESS

While Alten was lying helpless arid de
serted in the street his baby grandchild
was dying at the home of his daughter.
About. 4 a. m. Patrolman paycer found
Allen and thinking he was merely, 111

his home at 609 Duvls street.
Neighbors in the apartment house
heard him and saw him come into the
house and go to his room un&HHlsted.
Mrs, Allen was away at" the home of
her daughter and did not return until
10:30 o'clock this morning. When Kl-e
entered the apartment she found Allen
lying on the bed,, fully drcsFtd
MEMORY BLANK N
She was alarmed at his condition and
called for the police. - Motorcycle Patrol-'
man Sttlcs responded and tried to find
out from Allen what had happened.
Allen could not. remember anything
aboufr. the occurrence or how he got
home.. Ills discourse was rambling and
disconnected and he seemed to bo suf
fering intense pain from the head in
juries. He told Stiles he didn't remember see
ing Paycer at all and knew nothing
about the trip in the taxlcab.
The police are completely baffled by
the mystery and have no explanation
to offer.
CRIME RETORTED
It Is clearly evident that robbery waa
not, the. motive, since the victim's valu
able watch and a quantity of money
were left In his clothing and none ef hi
. pockata-jvere searched. The fact that
the assailants took the : star and fcun,
instead" of offering a clue to the police,
makes the mystery more complicated.
No burglaries or holdups in that part
of the city were reported lest night,
which removes the possibility that Al
len ' had caught a cang at work nivi
tried to cope with them single handed
when he was attacked.!
