WITNESS ON STAND
FOR SECOND TIME
Or. A. n. HedderIy Questioned by
Government in alleged Oregon
Land Fraud Case Before
Commissioner

With DR.. A. Fl. Hedderly again III
the witness chair yesterday, the gov
ernment sought to gain from him some
further information regarding the
proposed bond issue of $150,000 of the
Pacific Furniture and Lumber COM
papy, which figures in the alleged Ore
gon land fraud case being tried before
United States Commissioner Van Dyke
at the federal court.
The attorneys for the defense OBJ
jected to the line of cross-examination
followed by the government, since they
maintain that DR.. Hedderly was pro-
duced as n witness simply to be ques-
toned on two points relative to r. w
Kenny and Warren Gillelen of the
Broadway Bank and Trust company.
Ae they limited their examination to
these points, they claim the cross-ex-
enination should not cover wider
range.
But Commissioner Van Dyke al
lowed DIR. TIedderly to answer about
all the questions put to him by Dis
trict Attorney Oscar Lawler.
Dr. Hedderly said that the bonds
were needed to help the company to
get out of its financial difficulties and
that the bank was to act as trustee.

PUSHES PLAN TO
LICENSE ALL CARS
MUSHET WILL FACE COUNCIL
THIS MORNING
Trolley Officials Interested In Making
Fee as Low as Possible Since
Such Legislation Is
Inevitable

Auditor W. C. Mushet will again try
to convince the city council at today 8
session that all street cars should De
licensed, whether they are used once
day OF once month.
The councils special committee re-
ported recently lfavoring tax on eacn
car rather than an average license, ana
the trolley officials have about come to
the conclusion that there is no escape.
Their influences are now at work TO
make the license as low as possible ana
to omit, the clause requiring that the
tags be screwed to each car. They
favor a bulk license rather than 1ssu-
ance of 800 tags.
Last time the proposition came up
Counsel William Dunn of the Hunting
ton interests suggested that the city
and trolley auditors could get together
and make up a blank to be filled daily
by train dispatchers, showing exactly
how MANY cars were in service within
the city from the interurban lines.
The interurban companies keep por-
ton of their cars in outlying cities all
the year round, hence they would not
come under the scope of the ordinance.
The attorney also promised to furnish
nrinted lists of taxed cars by number
So that any patrolman could by refer.
rink to the book note the number or
anv passenger car and see If its license
had been paid for.
Auditor Mushet says under the old
ordinance the companies should have
furnished these daily statements of
car operations to be used as a basis
for averaging the license rate. but the
clause has always ss taSed neei , even If the IL
cense fee is lowered, it is thought the
municipality revenue will be greatly
increased.
