Tributes to "Billy" Mead.
General Agent Sisler, of the Omaha, is
In receipt of two letters from the officials
of his company, at St. Paul, touching up
on the lata William H. Mead, which show
the high regard in which he was held
H. M. Pearce, the general freight agent.
after expressing his pleasure to learn of
the kindly feeling entertained for the de
ceased here, adds:
"This, however, is not new to me, be
cause I have never seen a man in my life
that bad more friends and warmer friends
than 'Billy.' I feel that his death Is a
very great loss to us, not only in an
official but In a personal way, because we
had become very much attached to him."
O. H. MacRae, the assistant general
passenger agent of the company, says:
'Billy has been with our company so
long that It is hard to realise that he Is
dead, and when we do come to the realisa
tion of it I think we wUl miss him a great
deal. We all had a very warm spot In
our hearts for thi dear old fellow, and I
hope that he has received the reward that
he earned. He was extremely charitable
and I believe hadn't an enemy on earth."
Other letters of similar tenpr have been
received by General Agent dialer. No
man who has left behind him fellow'
workers who can speak so kindly of his
memory has lived in vain.
Six new horses, according to Fire Chief
Campbell, have been hired for the use
of his department This will permit. of the
use Of the chemical engine when needed.
It is understood, however, that the hiring
of these horses Is only temporary, until
other arrangements can be made, or un
til, a it is hoped, the Fire Commissioners
may be enabled to purchase outright
what animals are required.
The city administration recognizes the
fact that more horses are badly needed,
but says that lack of available funds
makes their purchase impossible at this
time. Still, It Is understood that an ef
fort is to be made to remedy what is
generally acknowledged to be a deficiency
fraught with danger to the city.
Railways and the Fair. '
Engineer Grondahl, of the Southern Pa
cific has suggested a route to the City
Park for a street car line on account of
the Lewis and dark Exposition, which.
shall It be found practicable, may decide
the question as to the City Park being the
proper site for the big fair, unless it shall
be found to be too expensive. The latter
will probably be the ease. To secure re
liable and definite data, the City & Su
burban and the Portland Railway Com
pany have undertaken a joint survey. The
two companies yesterday placed their sur
veyors In the field. The survey will be so
far completed by Thursday, it is thought,
as to enable the companies to decide
whether they can afford to make the de
sired improvement i!
P. C. & 0. MORTGAGE.
The Oregon Water Power & Railway
Company yesterday filed a mortgage on
its property for $5,000,000, to the Land Ti

NEED MONEY
The most important matter to come
before the City Council at its meeting
tomorrow afternoon will b the means to
be taken to hasten., the reopening for
traffic of the Madison street bridge. This
matter, Mayor WIUAems says, will con
stitute a very serious drain on the
finances of the city, considerably more
than half the appropriation for the cur
rent year having been already spent.
Just what means will be taken to secure
more money it is hard et present to say.
The pressing need ' of funds is known
to be embarraBglng the present admin
istration very greatly, and It Is likely
that at tomorrow's meeting some action
will be taken to relieve the strain. The
present unsatisfactory state ot the Fire
Department is another matter which la
likely to be discussed, but whether any
definite action will be taken In the
premises is a problem.
Only $06,039.25 has been paid Into the
exposition fund up to noon today, leaving
a balance of about $22,000 outstanding. As
every cent of the Srst assessment is
needed, the delinquent subscribers should
pay up at once. No collector wilt he sent
out.

by routing via St. Louis and the other
is through the Elgin, Joliet & Esstern, a.
belt line outside of Chicago. Shipments
from points east of Chicago will be
switched over to this line, and no delay
will therefore be occasioned."
