John Ovall, of Salem, Recognizes'Picture of Man He Saw In Church While the entire polico and detective force of Portland was seeking some due that would reveal the identity of the strange man who was murdered and his bod" stuffed in a trunk, it re mained for the Sulem police to disclose the idontity of the murdered man and the name of his companion who is wanted badly, as tho slayer. The Port lnnd Saturday afternoon papers car ried photos of the dead man which were recognized bv people in this city where the two men hud remained for a week, intending, they said, to pur chase a ehickerfranch. Kev. John Ovall, pastor of the Swed ish church of this city, culled Chief of police Welsh over the phono and told him that tho murdered man attendcl services in tho Swedish church in this! city the Sunday before. Rev. Ovall said lie told the man to wait after ser vice and spoke to him. Themnn said his name was John Linnd and that he had como to this city to look for a chicken ranch. Rev. Ovall mentioned a real estate man here who would be able to give him good terms. 'I uo not need terms," Linnd answered, "I have the money to pay for the property." His subsequent conversation indicat ed that ho had between .f-'.OOO and $5,000 and it is the theory of the t ortland police that lie was murdered for his money. With Linnd in this city was one man who called himself Ed Uartbolomew. " Bartholomew is the heavy set man with the double chin that is badly wanted by the Port land police. Whilo in Salem tne men roomed at the residence of Mrs. A. A. Miller, at, 200 North Liberty street. Linnd had tho money and paid the bills but his companion claimed to bo an ex pert chicken raiser and was going to manage the chicken ranch if Linnd purchased one in this vicinity. j-inmi is described as a small dark man and Bartholomew was also short but of powerful build. However, Bar tholomew failed to make a good im pression here and was inclined to be "sporty." Jlo was more flashily ilressed than Linnd and appeared to be better at conversation than anything else. As soon ns Linnd was identified here Chief Welsh immediately notified the Portland police and they went to work on tho new clues. Several other Salem people recognized the men from the pictures.. Fred B. Bynon. said he had talked to them and could not be mis taken in tho fact that Linnd and the murdered man were one and the same. It is tiiougoh that tho men remained in Snlom tor a week and then went to Portland last Monday or Sunday even ing whero tho murder was committed. Testimony Taken in the Willamette Valley Rate Case Portland, Or., Nov. 22. Taking of testimony in the Willamette valley lumber rute case was concluded just at noon Saturday.. Tho Ininnnl'oulseii Lumber company and the Eastern Oc Western Lumber company completed their testimony in rebuttal before Jn terBtntc Commerce Commission Exam iner Butler. The case is now ready for tho filing of briefs ami later argument. The case is ono involving the rein tion of rates into the northorn Califor nia torritory from the Willamette val ley and from Portland. By a new tariff that became effective the middle of October, rates of 17 1-2 cents per 100 pounds prevail from Willamette valley mills, whilo rates from Portland are 21 1-2 coots, or four cents higher. Alleging thut this four-cent differen tial will bo disastrous to their business in this territory, tho Portland mill men appealed to the commission to restore the old rate, which was 25 cents per 100 pounds from both Portland lull Willamette valloy with some modifica tions in favor of tiio valley mills on rough t green fir. S. P. Defonds Action. Tho Southern Pacific, which was call ed upon to defend its action in chang ing the urate relation, contended that it was forced to put in a lower rate from tho valley as n protection to the millB tributary to its lines asserting that tho chango was a result of years of study upon tho lumber situation. With nulls being closed down all through tho valley because of a lack of business anil other disadvantages that in iu I o Inroads upon its tonnugo, tho rnilrond officials testified that thev had mado a systematic investiga tion beginning in 1M12 and decided that tho only way to remedy the evils was to alter tho rates. The Portland mills brought witnesses to show that ft lower rate from the vul ley would so much ovorcome the rates by wator that had allowed tnem a foothold that thoy could no longer com pete in northern California markets. Numerous Instances were cited to show this. Discussion Is Broadened. Before tho testimony was all in, tho whole rate fabric was under discussion including rates on commodities of a dozen different kinds. It was also shown tliut the Southern Pacific makes a practice of handling some of the cars from Wilamctto valley barnch lines right Into' PortlandK whero the higher rnte is, and tnen sending mem back south on the main line. It was shown that this was done in tho faro of a lower rate from the valley, though sovernl additional handlings were re quired to get tho cars into main lino trains. One point dwelt upon at length was the fact that the Willamette valley rate tends as far north as Oregon City, a few miles from Portland, north of which plnce tho rate "break" to tne signer iovsi. Examiner Butler ordered the com plainants to file their briefs by De cember 20, and the defendant by De cember 4. Hoply briefs and final ar gument will complete the 'proceedings and the commission s ruling will Xul low. EVERY THREE MINUTES ONE DIES IN THE U. S.

Trading in stocks today was small by comparison with recent totals. -The day's entire transactions were fewer than 500,000 shares and it was the least active duy in over two months. Prices moved uncertainly, with occa sional strength in particular groups but with "no distinct tendency to advance or decline. Bonds were in noticeable, but not lurge demand. There was nothing disturbing about the diminished nctivity. A number of bonds advanced and the fow stocks that declined, sacrificed only a small fraction. The fact that the present week contains a holiday was one reason for the unwillingness of the tradingjele ment to assume large commitments. The war situation and the approaching ap pearance of President Wilson's message to congress also had a similnr ortcct. ipino and Yaqui Indian Get Five Days Paulino Osio, who says he is a Filip ino, and Joe Berg, a half-breed Yaqui Indian, were each given five days in the city jail this morning by City Re corder Elgin on a chnrgo of vagrancy. It is said that, the men invaded the homo of Mrs. Andrew Hansen, at 502 Mill street, Saturday afternoon and be gan rummaging about the room for something to eat. Mrs. Hansen or dered them to leave and they finnlly went owny without securing anything. After they left the house she im mediately notified the police and the men were found hidden in tho boiler room of Honsen's paining mill. .

STEEL BRIDGE SAFE A Bridge Expert Confirms Con clusions of State Highway Engineers The steel bridge across the Willam ette river at this place will be safe for light loads if the present repairs are completed, according to the report of Henry Morse, the western represen tative of Kalph Mod.ieska. who mado an examination of the bridge recently ana today submitted his report to Cantine. The report of Mr. Morse con firms the previous reports of the state highway department engineers, Holmes and Sadler, and also states that tho load limit should not exceed 7000 pounds which they stated in their re port to the comity court last month, eludes the weight of tho team and the Tho 7000 pound load, however, in cludes the weight of the team and ve hicle or the truck and it is estimated that any net load of over 4000 is un safe on the bridge.. All of the culiieulations are based upon the supposition. that the steel of tne bridge hus not deteriorated any more than it appears to tho eye of an engineering expert and does' not in clude any laboratory tests. History of the past has been that bridges fail when least expected after thev have reached their limit, and Mr. Morse savs the Salem bridge has now outlived its usefulness. The report of .Mr. Morse was requested by Mr. Cantine who wished to remove any ideas in the minds of tho people of Polk nnd Ma rion county that a new bridge was be ing advocated whilo there was any ser vice in the old structure. The engin eering department recommends that the bridge be closed during a high wind or after any great change in temperature. ' The repairs now going on will be completed this week und in addition to the bracing of the cords and struts the lateral system will be strengthened. ine repairs, However, will still cost, less than $2000 though they will ex ceed the 'estimate of $1300 as first given out. After a consideration of the results uutained oy tne computations nnd otllne oflicial visitors expressed tnem une conditions observed) Air. Morse makes the following conclusions: i. inat tho lite of the brnlirn hum practically reached its limit and thnt failure may take plnce under certain conditions of loading which may be imposed upon it at any time.- 2. That an attempt to prolong its uso except to tiio extent of rendering it reasonably safe, for temporary means of crossing until it can bo repfneed by a new structure, would not be justified either from the standpoint of safety or economy. , 3. That temporary safety demands that in addition to tho repair work which has been begun as outlined by your department, additional reinforce ments be ninde in the lutcrul systems. Tho lateral rods extending through two panels and beginning at the third pnnel point from tho ends in the lower s.vs-' tern, should bo replaced by bracing' in each panel, preferably of angle section rivited to floor beams at the pin points of lowor chord. Compression struts, which might bo of wood, should be in troduced longitudinally of tho truss at the end connections of these later als between pin points to serve asstiff eners to the suspended floor beams lo cated at tho points of panel subdivi sion. , Beginning nt tho hip joint the later als in tho top system should be replac ed in similar manner by bracing, ex tending over one panel instead of two as ut present, for tho first four panels from each end. In the remaining pan els of both systems tho present laterals should be properly adjusted to do their work. 4. That, whilo these reinforcements will greatly reduco the liability to a eollupso of tho structure under a so vero wind, they cun not be expected to remedy entirely tho vibration which is caused in this bridgo by both wind and traffic. It is this vibration ami tho continual rucking to which tho structure is subjected by reason of its light construction and proportion of its members, thut carries the element of danger at all times. Warnings of fniluio are generally given, however, in time to prevent loss of life, thero from, provided they nro intelligently watched for. To reduco tho chance of calamity to a minimum, therefore it ls mipernuve mat. a periodical inspection bo mndo by a competent bridge man nt, least every sixty days under ordinary conditions, ami at such special times as am unusually severe storm or wide change of temperature might require. 5. That, with every precaution tak en as outlined above, considering the' fact tliat tnis bridge is tho only means of crossing the river In tho vicinity I and servies a largo territory, r.shoul'd: ronsnicr tho authorities justified in keeping it open to traffic! under the I present restrictions, which should, ot'! course, be rigidly maintained until a new bridge can bo constructed, or un til signs of linmodiato d linger are mani fested in the meantime.
