condemn right of way for new locks
but not to condemn the present iochs
The question of water ownersnip
,s an important one, since, even IL the
state should acquire the present
locks the electric company, possessing
the water, might not supply all the
water needed for navigation at low
stages of the river. 1t is the opinion
of the United States officials that the
electric company cannot take water
needed for navigation uses even
though it claims the sole ownership
Of all the water power.

good things-the street car lines, the
water power in the Clackamas river,
all the electric and power plants at
Oregon City, as well as lien on ev-

been sustained and the judgment en-
tered TO the contrary by Judge Thos.

mt get off he would get somebody
who would put them of.
Slime went back to the top of the
car and few minutes thereafter,
Carr came over. on the same car.
Slime Informed him Of the men in the
car and Carr said he would go down
and take a look at them. Slime states
that Carr let himself down on the
north side Of the car, near the west
end, where there was space -of
about two feet between the timber
and the edge Of the car, and while he
was In swinging position a shot was
fired This was the last Slime saw Of
Carr alive. Slime within a few sec
onds says he felt stingng pain in,
his foot and started for the caboose,
and what happened in the car is
locked within the breasts, Of only four
living beings.
The defendant claims that Carr had
q club when he appeared before them
In the semi-darkness, that the club
was swung and George Miller was
hit with it upon his side, that Miller
shot three times, that eight or ten
shots were fired in all, the defendants
claiming that the other shots were
fred from above, all was confusion
and the brakeman's lantern was put
out in some way. the four living oc-
cupants of the car leaped over the
side OF the car and ran away from the
train, and when the car was entered
after arriving at Richardton only the
dead body Of Carr was found therein.
Though the trial is still in progress,
II is very probable that the defendant,
Buchanan, will claim not to have done
ANY shooting; Miller, who acknowl-
lodged shooting, though he said at one
time he does not know in what direc-
ton he pointed his gun, firing the
three shots which it is acknowledged
were shot from the inside of the car.

dola car in which the trouble oc-
CURED have been introduced into evil

bullet which killed Oscar Carr has
been offered. DR.. Fisher Of Dickinson.
testified that he and Dr.. Davis per-
formed an autopsy upon the body of
Carr and that both of the wounds
found on his body we're fatal.

of the district court holding him in
contempt was void, as the law pro-
yiding for an enforced Testimony Of
this nature was unconstitutional.
The case will be heard by the SUI
prenne court and in the meantime
Beer was remanded upon the same
bond furnished in the district court
case.
It is understood Judge Spalding will
not sit in the hearing Of this case, as
he sat as committing magistrate in
the cases when Beer was previously
before him as a witness.
