GRASS VALLEY, Ore, Aug. 2.
armed men are on

the Hill line. resisting the passage
of Hartman railroad gangs in a
race between the two railroad
powers to build the first line tap

An injunction was issued by the

When Twohy Brothers made an
attempt yesterday afternoon to
pass through the ranch, they were
met by Porter Brothers gangs
armed with shotguns, axes and
pick handles, and were compelled
to turn back. The Twohy men
were outnumbered and after a
brief parley, retired.
1t is feared, however, that
Twohy will attempt to force a pas

BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
ADJUSTING ASSESSMENTS

The Pierce country board oi
opened its annual
session at the court house this
morning. Three small reductions
were made in assessments. The
case heard today was
that OF the Puget Sound Bridge
|& Dredging company. Frank
Dana, appearing for the company,
Iasked that the $39591 assess
n,ent be cancelled, as its property
hi already assessed in King
bounty, Seattle being the home OF
the company. The matter was
referred to the prosecuting attor-
n&y for an opinion.
fAtkinson q Wilson, nilliners
ID G street, wanted q reduction
from $1,000 to- 5000. which was
denied when 1t was learned that
they carried between $4,000 and
$4,000 insurance.
-. r. Hodgins was granted bis
claim of reduction from $345 to
$3.50. He showed the board an
alleged gold watch. which he said
had been valued at $6o. 1t was
decided that $40 would cover its
value and Hodgins was satisfied.
Two other small claims were al

NO ACTION TAKE n
IN CURvEAU
CASE

No further action was taken by
the prosecuting attorneys office
in the Curveau tragedy today, and
as the police have dropped there
is not much hope of securing any
new evidence.
Nothing new has developed
since Friday, when the authori-
ties made their last trip to the
scene of the crime. Then they
were able to get nothing positive
which would tend to discredit
Flynn's story.
A statement alleged to have
been made by Flynn soon after the
drowning is being investigated to-
day. Louis Curveau, father of the
girl, thinks the statement does not
tally with Flynn's later story, but
this fact has not been proved.
