vate sewer was the more inexpensive
and the matter of ordering ii was
turned over to the sewer and health
committees with instructions to act
Immediately. Property owners who
do not stand their snare of the ex-
pense will not be allowed to attach to
the sewer and a lack of means for
sewage dispoal will have serious
effect on the renting Of the buildings.
Most of the time at the council
meeting last evening was spent in the
discussion of this matter and practic-
ally no other business was transacted.
The treasurer's report was read and
one or two other little matters re-
ferred to standing committees. Chair
man Sharon of the sewer committee
entered a complaint regarding the
condition of the rear Of the Boston
restaurant and the mayor announced
that the health and police commit
tees would be instructed to see that
the place was properly cleaned.

Portland, Ore, Sept. 21.-A white
slave scandal that promises to show-up
the most perfect organization, for this
disreputable traffic, and to bring
forth numerous sensational disclos-
ures that will involve many of the
leading hotel managers, and business
men of Portland as well as a large
number of travelling statesmen who
travel throughout the northwest and
make their headquarters in Portland,
was given its start here with the ar
rest, by agents of the federal gov
ernment, of Troy David, who is being
held to appear before the grand jury
on charges of white slavery.
The federal agents declare that they
have secured evidence which re.
veals the eXistance of a ring of deal
ers in white women slaves which has
for long time been engaged in draw
ing young girls from their homes in
all parts of the northwest.
1t Is alleged that the travelling sales
men have acted as procurers, while
engaged in making trips over their
territory, that hotel keepers have been
the dealers in these girls-many of
whom are from the most prominent
families in outlying town and cities,-
and that prominent business men have
been guilty of acting in the role of
purchasers. of these young girls, for
their own purposes.
No little excitement has been caus-
ed by the developments and sensa-
tional arrests are anticipated by many
who are close to the authorities who
are working on the cases.

Property owners on the west side
OF Main street between Alta and Court
streets will not secure sewer service
hereafter without paying their share
Of the expenses, following the action
taken by the city council last evening
after considerable discussion. A new
private sewer will probably be order
ed constructed. at tHc rear of the
those who stand their share of the
expense will be allowed to attach
to 1t.
1t seems from reports made by the
health and sewer committeeman last
evening that the present sewer in that
locality is a very old one and total
ly inadequate so that 1t is continual
ly being clogged and leaks so much
that 1t Is menace to the health of
the city. 1t also seems that some of
the property owners, two least, have
in the past attached onto the sewer
without any payment whatever and
that much trouble and dissatisfaction
has resulted.

San Francisco, Calf, Sept. 21.-The
elimination of fast passenger trains,
the present luXuriant service and all
palatial equipment on passenger
trains, that go to make railroad jour-
neys as agreeable as possible, is the
method by which the railroads of the
United States threaten to fight the
reduction of passenger revenues, as
proposed by the interstate commerce
commission, according to statements
given out here this morning.
The agents of the railroads alleged
that the roads are facing a reduc-
ton of one-third of their revenues
from passenger travel. which they de-
clare will make it utterly impossible
for the roads to maintain the present
high standard of train service.
