Phillip II. Johnson, architect; John w. Hen
derson and Henry E. Baton members of
the contracting firm of Henderson & Co.,
and James D. Fin1ay, former building in
spector.
The testimony presented yesterday tended
to show that in the construction OF the
new smallpox hospital inferior material
was improperly used; that Inspector Fin
ley had reported favorably upon the work
and that the original specifications had
been fraudulently changed. Former Judge
Gordon, who is prosecuting the case for
Mayor Weaver. today endeavored to estab-

Bee: The article OF e. G. s. in The Bee
of Saturday morning on the mutilation OF
the horse and the abuse of the nobest
OF the lower orders by men in overcheck-
ing and other fortunes was a strong and
timely one It is astonishing that owners
and lovers OF the horse insist upon de-

OF these infections. During the late Louis
willie Horse Show. Reginald Vanderbilt won
the blue ribbon over all with horse whose
tail, locked and almost hairless. attracted
the attention of Mr.. Watterson to the
hideous spectacle In a criticism which
ought to have made the New York lmitator

taste in his mutilation of one OF the finest

Missouri Building at Portland Said

on Fire.

PORTLAND, Ore. Oct. 1T Is possible
that the fire which destroyed the Missouri
building at the Lewis and Clark exposition
last night was of incendiary origin F. E.
Beach, a prominent business man OF this
city, claims to have seen the fire spring up
from a pile OF rubbish back of the burned
building This would indicate that the fire
did not start from any defective electric
wiring, as was at first thought to have
been the case.
A young man named Mcdonald says he
saw three men trying to scale fence near
the Missouri building Immediately before
the fire broke out.
