MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1910. TRUNK LINE MAPS HILL ACROSS flight of Way Designated Is From a Point on Summit Running West erly Past Fish Urte Thcirst Aiong Willow and Big Butte. piis Right of Way Is for an Exten sion of the Pacific & Eastern, Which Will Connect With Oregon Trunk In Central Oregon. "LAKEVIEW, Or., Sept. 1C Maps liavo bocn filed hero in tho govern ment land of tlco by tho Orcson Trunk railway, through Carey & Kerr, Port land agents of tho company. Tho right of way designated Is from a INVESTIGATING REFRIGERATION Preceolintj Results Are Under Fire at Sessien ef Interstate Commerce Commission Point at Isue Is the Need ef Re-iclng. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 16. The in vestigation of tho refrigeration of cit rus frulCs was resumed here by tho Interstate commerce commission to day. A largo number of citrus grow ers who have" been battling for lower railroad rates to eastern points have promised to bo on hand. The freight rate controversies, both aB t&)ranges end lemons, have been decided by the commission,, but the refrigeration question was left open to allow tests to be made through part of the hot months. These tests, which have been con ducted both by the shippers, with inspectors of tho commission watchiag them, were completed in July, and the results .will bo brought eut at the hearing now. The main contention of the citrus growers is that they should have tho right to pre-cool their own fruit and have it shipped according to their directions. The discovery of pro-cooling has greatly reduced the cost of refrigera tftai, they maintain, and the shippers have built pre-cooling plants at Po mona and Ea6t Highlands. Others will be built, if it is decided that the shippers can pre-cool their fruits. The railroads have been making an arbitrary charge of 130 on cars of fruit pre-cooled by the shippers, although they have rendered no ser vice for it. The shippers ask that this charge be done away with, and they believe refrigeration charges then will settle themselves, although the general question of refrigeration Is before the commission. The railroads contend that fruit pre-cooled by the shippers will not go through to destination without re-icing, and that is one of the points concerning which tests have been made. Another point at issue ia the amount of ice required to take a car through to tho east in good condi tion if it is not pre-cooled. The tests, which have been made this summer, will give the facts on the points, and will be brought out at the coming hearing.

ARMED ROBBERS HOLDJP ADTO Bold Robbery Takes Place Near Or egon City A. W. Cheney of Port- land and Family tho Victims Be lieved Highwaymen Young Men. PdRTLAND, Or., Sept. 16. Two armed and masked robbers held up two automobile parties on tho high way between Portland and Oregon City shortly beforo midnight, secur ed several hundred dollars' worth of loot, and covered their tracks so ef fectually that officials hunting them today are without a clue as to their Identity. The robberies took place within half a mile of the Oregon City lim its. A. W. Cheney, vice-president of the Pacific Stationery & Printing company of Portland, was the first victim. He, accompanied by six members of his family, was return ing to Portland from Oregon City when a heavy timber laid across the road caused him to, slow up his ma chine. A moment later two robbers jumped from the underbrush and cov ered tho party with revolvers. They collected two gold watches and a few dollars from Cheney and rings from Mrs. Cheney valued at. $200. The obstruction was then removed from tho road and the automoblllsts allow ed to depart. A few minutes later John H. Gib son, a real estate dealer of Milwau kle, was stopped in tho same place. The thugs compelled Mrs. Gibson, who accompanied her husband, to re linquish all her jewelry, valued at $450. Gibson surrendered a gold watch and a sum of money. Tho po lice are Inclined to believe that the robbers are young men. HEARST TRYING TO FORM. (Continued from Page 1.) will make in this state. "All that wo discussed was pol itics. Nothing else entered into tho conversation," said Graves. "What could one expect on meeting Roose velt? There is no particular subjet und there certainly was no conspir acy." Boosevelt conferred today with hii lieutenants. The whole New York situation was canvassed, it is un derstood. No statements were Riven out after the conferences ended. William Barnes, Jr., issued a state ment, however, sayine; that no amount of maneuvering or the use of putronago could obscure tho issue of tho Saratoga convention. Tho con vention, he said, will determino the future of the republican party in New York for years. The party will decide whether it will bo recognized as a conservative, conserving force or whether it will follow tho radical policies of Theodore Boosevelt and louts the strategic position it has held for years as tho party of sanity and tho protector of industry on which business and labor must depend. Natatorium Notes. The match game of bowling Wed nesday night botween tho Natatorium and Smokehouse teams proved a ver2 close and exciting contest, which tho Nutntorimn team finally won two gnmes to one for tho Smokers.

For tonight there will bo another match, same conditions, between dm Smokehouso team and one from tho Vnlloy Auto Co. Game starts at 8:15.

Tho defondant Is therefore tho owner of tho onstmont for tho sower and tho plaintiff ma bo tho owner of a right of action against tho defendant for reclslon of his contract, or ho may If ho chooao stand on tlo contract and suo for damages for tho broach, It thoro Is a breach, or for specific norformnnco In tho propor case, but In no sonso ia tho grant of easement dependent upon tho porformanco by tho city of Its promised In consideration there for. Tho conveyance of tho fco for street purposes Is dependent upon tho porformanco by tho city, and tho city could not compel a docd of tho feet for street purposes without showing that performance upon Us part. But in my opinion tho tltlo to tho onsomont passed at onco upon tho execution and doltvory of tho contract plend. If tho cnt Uo eastmont had been conditioned upon tho completing 'of tho bridgo and opening of tho street, what purpose could bo subserved by the grant of tho easement? for tho conveynnco of tho fcot for street purposes would include tho grant of tho caacmont for sower purposes. "Tho nttltudo of tho.plaintiff in regard to tho taking of gravol from tho bed of tho rivor Indicates that tho plaintiff regarded tho promises as belonging to tho city, tor ho did not interforo with tho taking of grav el or claim It In any way, but refer red persons desiring to tako gravol to tho city. "In this view of tho case tho only question loft to decldo Is whether tho action of the city is such as like ly to produco great and irreparablo Injury to tho plaintiff. Tho plaintiff in granting the casement to tho city granted the city tho right to uso tho easement for -the surpose specified In the contract, and taking tho allega tions of tho answer'as to the purpose of the city to construct' its sower in such a manner as to prevent any damage from tho htgo''water is sin cero, I have concluded that tho re straining ordor should bo dissolved with leave to the plaintiff to renew tho application for a restraining or der upon notice when It shall appear that tho city Is not carrying out tho promises' contained In the answer." TAFT TO QUIT? (Continued from Dace 1.1 "Thoro have been many stories floated concerning what I will and what I will not do, and in all prob ability there will bo many more in tho future. There have been many attacks on me, too, and of course there will bo more. I don't propose to discuss any of them, past, present or future," Colonel Roosevelt said. Much Comment. President Taft's reported state ment that he will not be a candidate two years hence if Boosevelt decides to run is causing much comment and speculation hero today, If the re port was well founded, as certain persons in nuthority profess to be lieve it is, it may be that tho ques tion of the result of the unsettled state of the republican situation, in its benring on the 1012 presidential enndiducy, is answered. It is argued that the president would not make such a statement unless ho were well informed ns to Hoosovclt's intentions, and that he is paving the way for n graceful exit at tho close of his term.
