They provide Tor a separation agree ment between Mr. an" Mrs. Still man. whereby she is granted a yearly allowance of $00,000, the abandonment ot the divorce pro ceedings and recognition of the child's legitimacy. Stillman Makes Proposal. The latest proposals for a set tlement are reported to have come from Mr. Stillman's attorneys. Mrs. Stillman is said to have been acquainted with them earlier In the week. She is said to have ask ed for a continuance of her present allowance of $7.."00 a month, but her husband's attorneys are un derstood to have opposed such a sum. Should negotiations for a settle ment be successful, attorneys are expected to appear before Justice Morschauser and ask for a discon tinuance. This, it is said, will au tomatically establish Guy's leciti- macy. as the paternity of a child in such circumstances cannot be attacked except through divorce proceedings. Guy May Participate His paternity established, Guy Stillman will be entitled to parti cipation on an equal basis with thre.e other Stillman children in the $7,000,000 trust fund left by their grandfather, the late James Stillman.

Most of the cities and towns where the tele phone company operates that have not filed separate petitions joined with the city of Portland in ask ing for the rehearing.

State in Furore. The commission's order increas ing the service rates of the Pa cific Telephone & Telegraph com pany probably created a greater lurore in the state than any other official action of a state depart ment has ever done in Oregon.
