A NARROW ESCAPE



Yesterday morning street Car No. 81
Of the 5nasmutsye. line Was run into
and knocked INTO the gutter Dy some
Lake Shore cars, which were attached
~ . switch engine.
A train Of ten cars drawn by switch
engine No 200 on the Lake shore road,
IN charge Of David Moore, engineer.
had just passed over the crossing going
south. Two or three cars had been
thrown into = slde track north OF the
crossing and the engineer expected 10
back down INTO tie yards. TIE Tram
ran south just far enough 10 clear the
crossing and the gates were raised
70 allow a street car and Vcral
teams 10 pass from the east side.
The cars mad not started 10 come
back and the nagman put the gates up
again and slgnsled the driver TO go
ahead. At the same time sWltchman
standing few feet north or tie cross
ing. where ne could not see the street
car si8naled the engineer 10 back up.
4 moment later he saw the street car
and tried TO signal him 10 go ahead,
but could not attract has attention. He
danced about and yelled 10 no effect
and then called 10 the driver 10 hurry
up. Both the street car and tram We're
moving slowly and the driver immedi-
ately whipped up his horses, but at
the same time the train gave violent
jerk and struck the street car. The car
was thrown into the gutter, the driver,
Harry Himebaugh, hanging onto the
n and falling IN the mud unlnJured.
Thomas O'keef was the only passen-
ger on the car and he escaped before
the accident. The street car was not
damaged 20 any great extent.
uperintendent Harris. of Kalamazoo
DIVISION of the l.. ). & VI. 8, was on
passenger train but few rods from
the crossing when the accident oc-
Cured and is now bnsy looking into
the matter. He saws that the engineer
had the target, and that the gates
should not have been raised rs long as
he did have the target. Superintend-
ent Bevier says he has expected such
an accident from the careless manner
in which the gate has been handled.

A Boston Drummer Fleeced.

The police are looking for Henry
Lawrence, young man who loafs
around the Morton House, but lives at
cheap boarding house. A Boston
travelling man complained at police
headquarserters yesterday morning
that Lawrence represented himself as a
New York drummer and induced him
to play dice with him at Bowen's saloon
on Ion,a-st., the night before. The
dice, it seems, were loaded, and as a
consequence the Boston man is out $40.
The officers think that the barkeeper,
who is known as "Bill, the Swede." was
working the game with Lawrence, if
that is his name. Lawrence has not

forth that the Governor and the State

The Furniture Manufacturers Asso-
cation held = three hours SESSION with
closed doors, at the Board OF Trade
last night President John A. Coyode
presided and the meeting was fairly at
tended. When TELEoRAM-HERAID
reporter attempted 10 gain al entrance,
he was met al the door 10y Secretary
Van Asmus, who informed that no re-
porters would be allowed and that not
one jot or one little of the proceedings
would be given 10 the press.
When the meeting finally adjourned,
between 10 and IL O'Clock, Charles X.
Sigh was asked what conclusion the
manufacturers had come TO regarding
the demand OF the Carver's Union for
nine hours work for nine hours pay.
lie answered, ASK Secretary Van
Asmus back there. / don't think he
will tell you though, for We have ali
agreed not to make anything public"
Secretary Van Asmus was then tackled
and he would not talk. He even re-
fused to tell whether the manufsctur-
ers had reached any conclusion or not.
When Wm. A. Berkey was questioned
he shrugged his shoulders and also said
that they had all agreed TO keep the
matter quiet.
1t is understood that the Probabilities
are that the Furniture Manufacturers
have resolved not 10 accede TO the de-
mand of the caryers for nine hours. In
a conversation last night, gentleman
stated that in his opinion, If the manu-
facturers had decided TO accede 10 the
demand, they would not be slow IN
making great splurge over what they
would probably consider, great favor
to the carvers.
CARvER's UNION.
1t looks, too, rs if the committee
from the Carvers' Union had not re-
cevcd much encouragement from the
manufacturers. A special secret meet
ing of the union was held last night at
Greenwood Lodge Hall, and another
meeting of the UNION will be held FRI
day evening.
The furniture workers of all depart
ments, are evidently bound to work
only nine hours day, and probably all
will join together and make gene raj
demand.

A NOTICE FROM IowA.-UpOn r.
ceiving Salem paper announcing
the death of HezekIah Monroe,
father Of &. II. Monroe, proprietor
OF the Chemekcie hotel, the Des
MONIES, Ia, State Register has the
following kindly aud appreclntiye
notice OF former Iowan: The an
nouncement of the death of Mr.
Monroe will awaken many recollec.
tions of the career Of man who, u
score Of years ago, WAS one of the
foremost business men of Des Moines.
The deceased was an early settler in
this county, coming here in the
hfties and living at first on farm on
Beaver creek. About 1868 or 1864
he removed to town, bought out the
clothing store which had just
beers started by "A Mr.. Kin
sey IN the Savery) now
Kirkwood) house block, and there
for more than "a dozen years con-
ducled prosperous business, in later
years, however, he was the victim
Of financial and domestic troubles,
which, together with poor health,
elOuded the closing years Of his life.
Mr.. Mcnroe was man Of nota-
BILE public spirit, an active worker IN
the temperance and other good
causes, and to the extent his means
would permit, always liberal, and
many suffering family realized
how much of the milk of human
kindness there was in Hezekiah
Monroe. About five or six years
ago Mr.. Monrne joined his son, who
had gone to Oregon long before, and
has since made his home there. He
has been great sufferer for many
years, and death was rather relief
than otherwise. Mr.. M. was twice
married but died II widower. Sew
eral children survive him. One of
them only now living in Iowa,a
married daughter.
Mr.. Monroe always took an ac-
tive part In politics, OH the republi-
can side, and was at one time alder
derman of the third ward and
valuable member of the council.

RAILROAD usuRPATION.
How the oregon Pacific Destroyed a
County Road on the Upper
Santiam.

To the Editor Of The Capital Journal;
Along the upper Santiam on uD.
surveyed government lands, are not
less than 300 actual bona fide set-
tiers who have been located there
some Of them for years. To assist
these meu' this county located and
constructed what is known as the
Mimic trail and wagon road up the
Santiam into Eastern Oregon and
have since been at considerable ex-
pense in keeping it open for travel.
The Oregon Pacific railroad com
pany without a shadow of authority
located their line of road over the
road and trail so located ami worked
by this county and rendered the
same impossible either for wagon or
pack trains, the citizens have time
and again protested against this act
Of usurpation by the railroad COM
pauy. Their protest has been
ignored both by the railroad and the
county officials whose plain duty il
Is to look after the roads Of the
county.
Now this Oregon Pacific rail road
mas located their road without even
a shadow Of authority from the gov
eminent. This we know by COM
munications direct rroni the depart
ment to that effect.
Now this county j. republican and
IL Is republican officers who have
treated this section of country with
negligence if not contempt and if
something is not done to give these
settlers their road it must be expect
ed thes people will enforce the law
of retaliation and as there are now
at least two hundred republican
votes in Horeb precinct those
votes will be cast for men who will
openly pledge themselves to open
this road or compel the railroad
company TO do 50.
Gf the county is compelled to open
the road II will cost many thousand
dollars 10 do it as the line of rail
road is now on the only practicable
trail or wagon road up that river
and exactly on the old county road
or Mimic trail and they refuse to
even allow these settlers ta pass over
their road bed with wagons or pack
trains, the only means these settlers
have to get their supplies. Is it not
about time to attend to this matter,
as "A negligence In this matter may
prove disastrous when viewed from
"A republican stand point for that
these settlers hold the power to
make themselves felt politically,
none can deny. A REPUBLICAN.
