Within a week, according to present report 8, a civil suit Is to he filed by tho department of Justice hero for the dissolution of the American Telephone b. Telegraph Company, for vlolntlon of the Sherman antl-tniBt law. The federal grand Jury, In session new Is also considering this case, and It Is more than possible that at the same time, or within a few weeks, criminal action may be taken against tho officials of the same company, similar to that taken against tho Amorlcnn Cosh Register Company, which resulted In Jail sentences for 28 of Kb officials. United States District Attorney Mc Court, who resigned as government prosecutor at Portland, Ore., to be come a Bpeclnl assistant to tho attor- noy-goncrol,' to prosecute theso ac- his resignation does not take effect until March 1.

Forty-six houso bills wore reported on by committees in the senate this morning and sent up to third reading. But one senate bill was reported on. Aside from a debate over the Schuebel bill relating to the authority of the board of flsli commissioners the ses sion was without popper, A majority of the fishing Industries committee reported favorably on the past-age of the bill, while an unfavora ble report was brought in by the mi nority of the committee. An attempt was made to substitute the minority report, but this was unsuccessful. .The bill was opposed by Bonn and Joseph, thd former contending that tho bill was unfavorable to the pro'ectlon of the salmon hatchery In Lane county. Dlmick and Iiutler upheld the bill. . A feature of tho debnte was tho ex ercising by President Malarkey of his duty as Joint senator from Clackamas and Multnomah counties. Dimlck had spoken as long as the rules would al low on the question when Joseph arose and added to his previous argument. Dimlck wished to reply, but was ruled out of order. President Malarkey, however, asked Dimlck to tako tho chair and himself answered the re marks of Joseph. Tho bill was placed on Its final passage and carried, Closes Certain Streams. By tho bill the board of fish commis sioners Is authorized to propagate and stock tho various waters and streams of the state with salmon, sturgeon, trout, or other food fhdios, not inimical to or destructive to salmon. For t.h! purpose of protecting tho fish the board Is authorized to close any stream or any designated portion of a stream frequented by salmon, or any stream which they have a'ocked, and to prevent any person taking salmon or other food fishes from such streams except that portion of the Columbia river west of the Cascado locks and that portion of tho Willamette river north of tho Willamette falls at Oregon city.

Willamette was considered very weak at the beginning of the Bca son, but great advancement has been mnilo bIiico thnt time. Coach Sweet land has been putting the men through the stlffest kind of workouts, anil haB developed a fast, hard-working quin tet, but their strength has never yet been tried on a team of the collegiate class, so that it Ib impossible to make any definite statements as to how the tVo teamB will compare. Seemingly, the odds are against the local team, but the boys from the "Farmers' school" wll have to fight for their money, and most of the fans will support the home team. Nothing definite can ever be ob tained from Conch Sweetland p'rlor to a game regarding the lineup he In tends to use. The members of the first squad, who will be called out for the game, are; Homan, Poung, Hepp, SchlBlor, Pfaff, Drake and Tallman.
