IS GRANTED
.T0S.PACIFI0
Restraining Order Issued By
, U. S. Dist. Court in Portland
Against Medford Construct
ing 6th St. Crossing As Per
Order of State Public Ser
vice Commission.
The city administration was thrown
tli In the air this forenoon upon the
receipt of the following telegram from
Clarence Hotchklss, United States
marshal at Portland, by Mayor B. C.
Gaddls and City Attorney John H.
Carkln:
"The United States district court
for diBtrlct of Oregon in Portland to
day iRsued a restraining order against
the City of Medford, members of the
city council, City Superintendent C. W.
Davis and yourselves, In a suit brought
by the Southern Pacific company. The
ordcr states that the defendants, their
agents and employees, and each of
them, are hereby especially restrained
and onjolned from entering upon, dis
turbing or in any manner Interfering
with the right of way, station grounds,
tracks, structures . or facilities of
plaintiff In the city of Medford, county
of Jackson and state of Oregon, until
further order of the court. Please
obey order or further Bervlce will bo
made promptly."
The receipt of the above telegram
telling of the temporary Injunction
suit begun In the fedoral courts means
that the proposed Sixth street grade
crossing over the outhern Pacific
- tracks, the work of establishing which
was to have been begun the first of
next week, may because of this op
position of the railroad company In the
courts, be delayed several years, or In
caso the company succeeds In getting
a permanent injunction will nevor
come about.
It also means that the city now has
a long legal fight with tho company
in the courts. The injunction suit is
the answer of tho Southern Pacific
company to the defi Issued to the com
pany last week by the city in which
the latter declared Its doclslon to re
fuse to pay $18,000 or any other sum
to the company for use of its right of
way In establishing the crossing; and
proposed to begin work on the cross
ing after Novomber 24.
The action of the S. P. was rathor
unexpected by members of tho city ad
ministration, although tho railroad had
consistently fought against the pro
posed grade crossing ovor Sixth
street both before, at the hearing of
the public service commission on the
city's request to establish such a cross
ing, which was granted, and Bluce.
But the railroad's opposition scorn
ed so mild lately, as woll as at the
hearing, that the city officials grad
ually became lulled into a feeling that
when it came down to taclis, tho op
position, beyond Informal protesting,
bad died away.
It seems, howover, that all this time
the Southern Pacific had the Injunc
tion suit up its sieves ub a last re

L
VOTE AGAIN
H.
L
There is a strong probability that
the tax payers of Medford will be
given another opportunity to vote on
the question of issuing bonds for a
now high school building, Bhortly
after the first of next year, and that
this tinio the proposition will be put
up unanimously by the school board
and a campaign of education and
facts as to plans and cost will precede
the election.
This was not done at the two prior
elections during tho past year, at
which tho proposal was defeated both
times, the first time by a small ma
jority and tho second time by a larger
one.
At a special meeting; of the school
board last night at which the only
absentee was John C. Mann and with
mombera-A. B. Cunningham, Ai H.
Miller, Elmer Wilson and Dr. I. D.
Phipps present, the board hold an In
formal discussion i with Frank Clark,
woll known local architect, on tho
subject, and decided to put up the
question to tho people again, to
gether with ample information ob
tained from architects and perusal
of other modern high school build
ings built in recent years.
Mr. Clark, who designed and built
a large modern grade school bulld
Inc al Sllvcrton, Ore., for $60,000
within the past two years, which has
attracted wide and favorable atten
tion, will leave Monday on a vacation
sojourn in Southern California to re
main until the first of January, and
during this time he will visit various
hih school buildings In the neigh
boring state and gather ideas along
this line for tho Medford school board,
which he will report to the board on
his return.

Spanish and Italian Consulates
in Philadelphia Blown Up
Many Injured, Damage Is
Large Special Guards Are
Ordered Out Reason for
Crime Mystifies Authorities.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24. Two
terriflc'bonb explosions in foreign
consulates In the downtown district to
day injured scoros of persons, damag
ed many houses and threw the south
ern' section of the city Into wild excite
ment. No ono was seriously hurt, so
far as the police could learn.
The first explosion occurred at the
Spanish consulate, 701 Pine Btreet,
about 1 a. m. and the second at tho
Sons of Italy bank, Broad and Tasker
streets, an hour later. Tho Italian
consulate Is located In the bank
building and the bomb was placed on
the door leading to the consul's office.
Both blasts shattered window panos
and shook houses in a wide area. The
force of the explosion at the Spanish
consulate was so great that many per
sons wore hurled from their beds,
some being cut and brulsod by flying
glass.
The bomb, concealed In a wooden
box, was found on tho doorstep by
Emllio DeMottn, the consul, when he
returned from the theater. ,Ho placed
it Insido the hallway but after retiring
he told tho pollco he had concluded
that a passerby had left the box on
the doorstep temporarily and might re
turn for It. . Without a thought of the
doaflly bomb concealed within, he got
out of bed and replaced the box on the
doorstep. ,
A few minutes' after returning to hlB
room, the explosion occurred, tearing
out tho entiro front of tho building
and wrecking the consul's room on
the second floor. Mr. DcMotta was
badly shaken up.
The Sons of Italy bank building was
wrecked by the second explosion and
a number of houses In tho neighbor
hood were damaged. The fact that the
Italian consulate was located in the
building led the pollco to believe that
the same porsono were responsible for
placing both bombs. Luigi Slllittl, the
Italian consul, was not In the city but
Vice Consul Guldo DIVIncenzo who ap
peared at the scene shortly after the
explosion, said he- had no Idea why
the place was bombed or by whom It
was done.
Like the SanlBh consul, he Bald
neither he or tho Italian consul had
any enemies so far as he knows.
Birector of Public Safety Cortelyou
assumed personal charge of the situa
tion and ordered guards placed around
all consulates in the city. He also
sent out a general call ordering detec
tives to guard the homes of Mayor
Mooro, the various Judges ' and other
prominent city officials. Ho said he
had not definite Information regard
ing the Identity of the persons or per
son responsible for the bombings but;
declared it was his belief (hat they
were members of "radical" organiza
tions which have been ununually ac
tive hero recently. '

EBERT SELECTS
LONDON. Nov. 24. President
Ebert has invited Herr Von Kardorff,
a member of tho German people's
party in the relchstag, to form a new
German cabinet, says a news agency
dispatch from Berlin this afternoon.
It Is anticipated that ho will accept,
the messago states.
BERLIN, Nov. 24. While awaiting
word from President Ebert as to his
plans for the government that Is to
succeed the defeated Stresomann, po
litical leaders this morning wero dis
cussing the several possibilities tho
situation contained.
Tho nature of tho new government
remained a mystery over night and
observers were wondering whether
the president would try a preliminary
ministry or whether he would decide
upon a restricted directorate. The
socialists last night let It be known
that they would ho benevolently neu
tral toward a selection representing
the clericals, tho democrats and the
German people's party but they mado
It plain that they would not approve
the Inclusion of a non-partisan expert
In such a ministry.
In. view of tho political difficulties
experienced by Chancellor Strcsemann
In dealing with tho retch stag, some
party leaders felt dissolution of the
national legislature was tho only
alternative to a popular coalition. Tho
radical leaders, however, wero con
tending that the president should
make every effort to recruit a govern
ment from parliamentary sources.
Among the statesmen mentioned
overnight ns possible candidates for
the chancellorship was Dr. Helnrlch
Albert, former German fiscal agent at
Washington and later associated with
the Cuno ministry as secretary of the
treasury.
Dr. Albert Is a non-partisan. Anoth
er man prominently spoken of was
Dr. Johannes Von fileber, premier rt
Wurttomburg and a democrat.
Whatever President Ebort's final
decision, political leaders were urg
ing this morning that there be no de
lay tn straightening out the govern
ment crisis. A long controversy over
the successor to Stresemann, these
observers' asserted, would have a most
unfavorable effect abroad Just at a
time when a move for financial assis
tance for the reieh was reported as
under way. It was also pointed out
that a serious parliamentary deadlock
would also prejudice the position of
the relch tn Bavaria and the Rhine
land. '

Referring to Mr. Graham's conten
