High TreStIe Gave Way.

STARBUcK, Wash. Aug, 5.-As an
extra westbound freight was passing
over a high bridge one mile west of Alto
at 1905 a. m. tho bridge collapsed, TAX
ing the caboose and 16 carloads OF ore,
wheat and -four to the ground The en-
CINE crossed over the bridge and is now
off the track; the tender turned over.
The engineer and fireman escaped IN
jury. The conductor and brakeman
were badly injured, The train was In
charge of Conductor Watson, engine
1,4S7, Engineer Jesse, Fireman j, Fl
Roddy, Brakemen Dave Wright and
Fred Harrison.
Conductor Watson was taken from
the caboose by the engineer and fireman,
assisted by some farmers. His injuries
consist of compound fracture of his
left arm above the elbow, right shout
der disIocated and head bruised. Brake
men Wright and Harrison were found
near the center of the bridge between
two cars which had fallen a distance of
90 feet. Their injuries are: Wright had
his left arm broken in two places below
the elbow, his right ankle hurt. his head
badly cut and his face cut and bruised.
None of Harrison's bones were broken,
but Lis face and head were cut and
bruised and his hips hurt, but he will be
all right in few days.
As soon as the accident happened q
farmer rushed to Alto, distance OF a
mile, and gave the alarm. A train was
sent from Starbuck ana Walla Walla
with doctora and assistance. DIR. Baker
from Starbuck arrived at 1910 and
found the victims at the residence OF
Milton Jonas where they had been car
rled and did what hs could to relieve
them, until the train arrived at 2 o'clock
from Walla Walla with Superintendent
A. J. Borie and Dr. E. A. VanPatten Of
DAYTON, who after dressing the wounds
OF the men, took them to Walla Walla to
st. Mary's hospital.
The bridge is about 1000 feet long
and 96 feet high and was rebuilt about
three years ago aud there is no known
reason why it should go down. 1t is a
complete wreck and it is miracle that
any of the crew escaped with their lives.

TOURIST SLEEPERS.

The Union Pacific are now carrying a
very much improved Tourists Sleeper. to
Portlan nd, Kansas City, San Francisco
and Chicago. The old cars have been
entirely overhauled. The interior ar
raneement has been changed somewhat,
repainted, the toilet arrangement i'm.
proved upon, and the main feature OF
the improved service is the spring PACK
and spring seats, the old Stat seats hav-
ing been done away with. The spring
seats and backs are covered with rattan.
These cars are now the best tourists
sleepers operated over any OF the trans
continental lines.

aud the mills anticipate good demand
fIr some months. Eastern and Western
coal agents have decided to limit the
output for August to 100000 tons,
and to maintain present prices. Wheat
made several remarkable new records at
Chicago during the past week, Septem-
Der options reaching the inside point at
524 cents per bushel on Thursday. This
was drop of q cents from the preced
ing Fridays record, and g below its
lowest record previous to the beginning
OF the present great slump. Wheat re-
ceipts at primary points on Thursday had
reached above the 100000 bushel point,
and export clearances were only trife
more than 100000 bushels. Nearly $50
carloads are now arriving at Chicago
daily. Bradstreet's reports a decrease
of only 404 900 bushels in the worlds
available wheat supply. Since the end
OF the fiscal year 1898 our reported
wheat exports have decreased from last
year 81, 100000 bushels in quantity and
SOS, 100000 in value. Even allowing
for the increased export of wheat flour,
our total shipments Of wheat IN all its
forms up to the close OF May decreased
in value S23.OO0,OO0 from 1898. Only
moderate average yield of spring
wheat is predicted. The decrease i'll the
visible supply of corn will probably
greatly advance the price OF that cereal.
Oats are we'll above the average OF the
past ten years. The receipts for this
month ore only about hc II those for July
OF last year. The marketing of hogs
reached total of 245,000 for the week
against 215,0O0 the preceding week,
and 10000 for the corresponding time
last year. The average OF prices for
Western markets is little lower than
it was week ago.-Philadelphia Rec

A Cripple Shot Dead.

CoNooNULLY, Aug. 8.-The details OF
the murder committed near Palmer lake
the other day, show it to have been d
cold blooded affair. 1t arose from dis
pute over the ownership of ranch, and
the right to cut the hay on it. Spence,
the murdered man, was a bumped back
cripple, and was well known in that part
of the country as "Humpy, the fisher
ulan." w. d. CARED, the murderer
claims that Spence threatened him with
a pitchfork. when be shot him twice, one
ball passing through Spence's neck.
CARED went to LOOMS and delivered
himself up to Ju. tice of the Peace
Stocker, who placed him IN charge OF
two deputies and notified Sheriff Rush
of this town. The body of Spence was
also taken to LOOMS.
While Spence may have been some
what boisterous, he was an inotfensvie
sort of a man, and Garred's shooting
him, as he did, Is regarded as entirely
uniustifable by those who know the par
ties, and from all the circumstances oil
the case SO far as they have come to
light
Ranch disputes are OF the blttereet
sort. no less than three Of them result
ing in murder in this section within
year.

Drought Stricken Nebraska.

OMAHA Aug. 6,-An appeal for the
drought stricken portions of Nebraska
signed by committe claiming to rep
resent large interests was today sent to
the governor. The committee explains
that 1t has reason to believe what it has
been told, that thousands of families
will either starve, emigrate or be fed by
charity, unless the people as a whole
provide for them. The committee sug-
gests as a solution OF the problem that
a special session of the legislature be
called Immediately to devise state sys-
tenn of irrigation, and that those in the
drought districts be given employment
in the bitches. Gov. Crounse is at pres
ent out of the state. The impression is
that crop failures are not complete, and
with ECONOMY little actual suffering will
result without state aid.

IT MAY Be SETTLED.
TaE STONE CONTRACTORS CONSENT TO Ar
BITRATION
In the Wage Differences With Their Employees.
A Strike at EOggs' Run Minss-Glass
Situation Industrial Notes.

The stone contractors Of the city held
a meeting last night at the Chamber OF
Commerce to hear the report OF the
committee appointed to confer with
their employees, with a view to an
amicable settlement OF the wage differ
snces between them. The conference
was held a few days ago. The men
agreed to compromise at SO cents per
hour, which is four cents less than
former wages and six cents more than
the wages offered by the contractors.
The committee had no authority to act,
but presented their report at last mig hts
meeting.
All the stone contractors in the city
were present. The situation was dis
dussed generally, ana it was decided to
reject the proposition OF the stone
masons. The contractors, however,
will make another proposition TO COM
promise at 80 b cents per hour, or three
dollars per day of nine hours. The
stonemasons offered TO submit the mat
ter to arbitration, and in the event OF
the proposition Of the contractors is not
accepted, the difficulty will be adjusted
in that manner.
A REGISTER reporter yesterday inter-
viewed representative men upon both
sides OF the controversy. Said a we'll
known mason: 1--WE consider the reduc-
tion of 90 cents day as entirely unjust
and unn necessary. The stonemasons in
Wheeling have been receiving about the
average wages paid elsewhere, and they
are not being reduced in other cities.
1t is true that $3.50 per day is good
wages. But il must he borne IN mind
that we have Employment not six months
in the year, and more frequently not
more than four months. During the
busy season we are also frequently idle
by reason of wet weather. We are not
in position TO stand q reduction in
wages of twenty-five per cent. The
amount which stoDemason earns In
year falls far short of the sum earned
by mechanics who are employed
steadily, at one-half the daily wages re-
ceived by masons.
A prominent contractor had this to
say upon the other side: The claim
that wages under the reduction we have
ordered, will not be as high as elsewhere,
is untrue. In Columbus. stonemasons
are paid so cents an hour, in Cleveland
35 cents, in SteubeDville 25 cents.
Pittsburg is the only city in this vicinity
wnere 40 cents an hour is paid. We
have been forced to take this step
because of the sharp competition at
home. Foreign contractors are employ
ing masons 10 Wheeling, and paying
S2.25 for a day of 10 hours. How can
we compete with them, by paying 81 for
the same number Of hours? We are
really making a sacrifice of $3.50 a day
to meet this competition, while the
stonemaSons are losing but GO cents a
day, if they accept the 1913 cent basis
Three perches per day is regarded as
the average work for stonemason.
Heretofore we have been receiving 81
perch. We have reduced to So. so
perch, thereby losing $3.50 per day up
on each workman"
