EXCITEMENT At ARCATh.
Unknown Persons Cut Down the
Union High School
Flag Pole.
Enemies of State Senator MCGOWAN
Endeavor to Prevent His
Grafton.

EUREKA, CAL, Dec. 20.-The town of
Arcata has been in a turmoil to-day over a
dastardly act committed by unknown per-
sons last night. The pupils of the Arcata
Union High School had arranged pro-
gramme and fag-raising, and engaged
State Senator Frank MCGOWAN to deliver
the Grafton. This morning it was discov-
cred that the fagpole had been chopped
to the ground in order to prevent the flag
raising.
The citizens were greatly incensed, and
members of the G. A. R. and others spliced
up the pole and the progra mme was car
ried out as planned. Senator MCGOWAN
appeared and delivered fine Grafton be-
fore a large crowd.
1t is believed the raZing of the f1agpole
was the work of enemies of Senator Nc
Gowan, as protest had been made against
his acting as orator of the day. The
scholars of the high school voted unan-
imously, in the face of the protest, in favor
of MCGOWAN. The midnight act has
aroused the entire county.

SUES A PORTLAND MAN,
A San Francisco Woman Charges
ReStaurateur Vierick
With Bigamy.
The Accused Man Claims He Is the
Victim of a Blackmailing
Scheme.

PORTLAND, Or, Dec. 2o.-A suit for
alimony was instituted yesterday after
noon by Emily May Vierick of San Fran
cisco against larry Vierick, a prominent
restaurateur of this city, who has wife
and several children. The plaintiff al
leges that Vierick deserted her and re-
married without first obtaining divorce
from her. This evening, though, some
startling disclosures respecting this case
came from the District Attorneys office.
The counsel for Mrs. Vierick No. es-
sayed this afternoon to cause Vierick' 8
arrest for bigamy. The District Attorney
declined to issue an information against
the accused. He has seen document
ary proof in the possession of Vierick,
leading him to believe. beyond doubt,
that his first wife was dead when he
welded his second; and further, that Mrs.
Vierick has been here, off and on, for the
past two months attempting to blackmail
Vierick.
The first demand for money for keeping
secret his alleged crime was, it Is asserted,
for $500, the next $500 ami the third
$1,000. Vierick, who is a man of some
means, claims he refused to meet these
demands, and told the woman and her
lawyers to proceed with the execution of
their threats. Vierick will contest the
alimonv suit

lookout was kept and all likely water

searched.
The flagship during her six days ab-
sence steamed nearly 1900 miles. cruising
between 48 and 80 north latitude. and as
far west as 134, or nearly 500 miles from
Cape Flattery. She steamed about ten
knots an hour in parallel courses twenty
miles apart. A crows nest was placed 1O7
feet above water, so that lookout could
fifteen miles in any direction, and at night
the f1agship's powerful search-lignt, which
can be seen thirty miles off, was used
carefully, a lookout being kept for answer
ing rockets or distress fires.
The cruising ground was based on the
natural drift of steamer of the Strath-
nevis size with the prevailing winds,
weather and currents since she was re-
ported by the John Gamble. Since then
the prevailing winds have changed and
naval officers now believe that if the vessel
has not gone down she is further north
than calculated-doubtless toward the
Queen Charlotte group. 1t was there that
menced her search and it is believed by
some here that she will return with her
rich prize in tow.
One peril that besets the passengers and
crew of the Strathnevis, granting that
the steamer is still above water, is starva-
ton. When sighted by the John Gamble
provisions were running low and the 100
Chinese passengers aboard were clamorous
because they were already forced to eat
white mems diet, their rice having been
exhausted. There was not enough in the
larder to nave held off famine even this
length of time

WILLIAM ROBINSON DYING
Many Little Ones Owe Their
Existence in the World
to His Genius.
But the Inventor of the Baby Incu.
bator Failed to Secure a
Patent.

NEW YORK, n. Y, Dec. 20.-William
G. Robinson, the man to whom many lit
tie folks who were born into the world too
soon owe their existence, is said to be dy-
ing of consumption in Washington. In
his little tinshop at 315 East Twenty-sixth
street several years ago the idea came to
him that the incubator which had relieved
hens of the burden OF a sedentary occupa-
ton could be applied to infants. So he
told the doctors about it and made an in
cubator.
A baby who is now Joseph Grevort was
the first one to occupy it. One day there
came call from the residence OF E.
Clarence Haight, millionaire. The waif
he found there lay silent by the body OF
the mother, who had died in giving it
birth. 1t came into the world three months
too soon. Robinson connected the incu-
bator with the gas fixture, and soon he had
the water well heated so as to give the
space inside the temperature of the hu-
man body. Then the waif was placed on
swinging bed of cotton. The oven and the
glass doors were shut. The physicians
and nurses stood peering through the
glass. In two hours the physicians said
there were signs of life. The waif lived.
Since then an incubator of the Robinson
pattern has been placed in nearly every
hospital. 1t has saved many lives. Like
all inventors, Robinson was poor. When he
made his first incubator he had no idea
there was money in it for him. But when
the incubator was adopted generally he
began to think. Finally he decided to
have it patented and reap his reward. He
left for Washington month ago and filed
his applications in the Patent Office. AS
he was about to leave for New York he
was seized with violent fit of coughing.
He was taken to the house CT his sister.
The doctors said he bad consumption.
Mrs. Robinson was called to his bedside
two weeks ago, and yesterday she sent
word to her mother that he could not sur
yive much longer. He was 80 years Of age
and had three children.

Mediators Rather Prematurely
Notified the Men to Return
to Work.
DEBS AND M'BRIDE CALLED.
These Labor Leaders Will Go to the
Scene of Strife and Deliver
Addresses.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 21.-The
strike situation is in worse muddle than
ever from all appearances.
At 1 o'clock this morning it was an
nounced that a proposition submitted to
the Mayor by the Rev. DR.. Baker and
George Griffith, representing the Christian
League, had been laid before Mr.. Welsh
and acceded to by him on behalf of the
Union Traction Company. The PROPOSE
ton is as follows:
''If the men come back and return to
their-work and peace is restored the Union
Traction management will cordially
and considerably receive any committee
from the ranks OF its own employees, and
will respectfully and kindly hear their
complaints and grievances that they may
offer, and will remedy the same within the
range Of fairness
DR.. Baker and Mr.. Griffith were assured
that this proposition had been accepted by
Mr.. Welsh. They Immediately hu ed to
headquarters of the strikers and laid it be-
fore the executive committee of the strike
board and the committee Immediately ac-
cepted it. The committee thereupon
started out in cabs to notify the men to re-
port for duty this morning.
General Manager Beetem of the Union
Traction Company answered a telephone
call at so O'Clock and denied absolutely
that the Union Traction Company had
made any such proposition Or would come
to any such understanding with its former
employees. He said that if the committee
had declared the strike off it was because
they were beaten at every turn.
-: The outcome of this singular complica-
ton must be awaited this morning.

searching parties had been out ever since.
His horse, saddle and clothing had been
taken, and the body was riddled with bull

ALASK5'S MUDDLE.
The Disputed Prohibition La,o a Relic of

The Disputed Prohibition La,o a Relic of
Russian RmIe.
PORTLAND, Or, Dec. 20.-The chaotic
state of affairs in Alaska over the liquor
question is giving much trouble, accord
ing to D. K. Johnson, a merchant of
Juneau, who is here on business. Mr..
Johnson says:
1.-THE prohibition law, which has just
resulted in the indictment of forty-four
saloon keepers of Juneau, Douglass City
and Sitka, is relic of old Russian rule
and was made to prevent the Indians, with
whom for many years the Russians were
at war, from getting hold of intoxicants.
for fight was sure to follow big drunk
among the Siwashes. When the Territory
was turned over to the United States this
Russian prohibitory law continued in
force. With the gold excitement, and
consequent rush of hundreds of whites
into Fort Wrangel and Juneau, there was
immense increase in traffic, and whisky
traders rapidly made fortunes.
''Witn the appointment OF Governor
Kincaid, a desultory effort was made to
stop the traffic, but it soon died. With sue
ceeding changes of Governors and United
States Marshals the bringing in of whisky
become more dangerous, SO far as confsca-
ton was concerned, but the saloons went
along Just the same. The Government de-
cided to license saloons in the face of the
organic act. This has brought things into
wretched muddle. The saloon-keeper
pays license, yet he is at the mercy of
any one who chooses to prosecute him un-
der the organic act.
1.-THE action of the Grand Jury in bring
ing the indictments is to bring the matter
to final settlement, the Jurors having
petitioned the National Government to
either repeal the issuance of licenses or
else so amend the organic act that regu-
larly licensed dealers may transact their
business without fear OF prosecution"

He Writes to His Mother of His
Intention to Begin Life
Anew.
REGRETS HIS POPULATIONS
Neither Details of the Method EN-.
ployed nor the Amounts Stolen
Are Given.

VALLEJO, CAL, Dec. 20-At last news
has been received from the defaulting
Deputy Postmaster, Charles L. McEner-
ney, of this city. who disappeared on De-
cember 13, taking with him $500 or $500
paid to him for money orders. McEner-
ney had, the day before his hirht, been
found some $3.50 short by Postal Inspector
Irwin, but on promising to make this sum
good both Irwin and Postmaster Roe con-
sented to let the matter remain quiet.
The next day at noon McEnerney left the
Office, ostensibly to go to dinner, but was
not heard from after. Suspicion being
thus aroused, further investigation was
made, and to date in the neighborhood of
$500 has been found missing, and presum-
ably an indefinite sum beyond this, which
can be known only when persons to whom
remittances were to have been sent are
heard from.
1t was thought at first that McEnerney
had killed himself, but sober reflection
failed to give motive for this, as all his
known stealings of $3.50 were made within
a few days, and one for 5000 on the very
day OF his disappearance. That he did
not kill himself proves to be the fact. He
has gone East doubtless having valuable
and intelligent assistance in his plans.
A letterin McEnerney's handwriting was
received by Mrs. John McEnerney, the
young mans mother. 1t is evident that
he started East almost Immediately after
his disappearance. The letter was for
warded by H. ]. Barry, the postmaster at
Reno, New, who says he received it under
cover on December II. In the missive Nc
Enerney expresses sorrow for his actions,
and says he could not stay and face the
music" He declares his purpose of max
ing an honest record for himself else
where, and states that before the letter in
question could be read he would be in
Chicago. McEnerney intimates, however,
that that city will not be his stopping
place. He acknowledges having changed
the com bination of the postoffice sale, but
does not enter further into the details Of
his actions.

Los ANGELES ACCIDENT,
An Aged Couple Struck by q
Santa Fe Engine and
Killed.
Run Down by an Oncoming Train
While Attempting to Cross
the Track.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Dec. 20.-J. T.
Lincoln and his aged wife were dashed
into eternity this morning without mo-
ment's warning. AS they were crossing
the Redondo branch of the eSanta Fe track,
at private crossing on East Central ave-
nue., about half mile east of La Grand e
station, the engine of regular train No. 140,
coming from Redondo, struck the buggy.
The vehicle was broken into small frag-
rnents and the aged occupants crushed to
death.
The engineer claims that the train was
coming in at the usual rate of speed. He
noted the fact that there was a horse and
buggy approaching to cross the track, and
gave the usual warning by ringing the
BELL but the aged occupants either did not
hear the bell, or, if they did, failed to
realize the warning conveyed. The old
gentleman's head and chest were crushed
and Mrs. Lincoln was mutilated almost
beyond recognition. Their horse was also
killed in the collision.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lincoln lived at Whittier
and were visiting their daughter, Mrs.
Hyer, on Central avenue. They have other
relatives in the city.

CALEED TO PHILADELPHIA.
Debs and Mcbride to Encourage the
Strikers.

Debs and McBride to Encourage the
Strikers.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 20.-The
leaders of the strike to-day decided to call
upon Eugene V. Debs, the famous leader
OF the a. R. T.. and John Mcbride, ex-
president of the Federation of Labor, to
aid them with their advice and presence.
Accordingly telegram was sent to Mr..
Debs at Terre Haute and to Mr.. Mcbride
asking them if they would come here.
Replies were received from both that
they would come to Philadelphia at once,
and it is expected that both these labor
leaders will be here some time tomorrow.
1t is not the intention of the local lead
ers of the strike and of President Mahon
of the Amalgamated Association to ask
Mr.. Debs to take charge of the strike, but
the purpose now is to have the president
of the American Railway Union and Nc
Bride address meetings and enthuse the
men with their speeches and presence.
After Mr.. Debs comes, here, however, mat
ters may so shape themselves that he will
assume the direction OF the strike.
The situation to-day, as far as the run
ming OF cars was concerned was measur-
ably improved. On those lines that the
traction company is operating to any ex-
tent cars were run on nearly schedule
time.
Much of the excitement has died out on
the streets and crowds did not congregate
to-day as when the strike first started.
Nevertheless, two particularly vicious as
,saults were made on cars on the Thir-
teenth and Fifteenth street lines. At
Fifteenth street and Pennsylvania avenue
a car was com PEELED to slow up for a
freight train passing out the latter street.
The car was crowded with men and
women and there was but one policeman
on the platform. The momentary halt
proved too much for the patience of the
crowd, and without warning a storm of
iron bolts, coal, Stag and bricks were
hurled at the car.
At the first assault the terrified passen-
gers threw themselves upon the floor of
the car and during lull in the fusilade
made their escape to the street One lady
had her jaw broken by an iron nut. a
man was severely hurt by flying glass and
the conductor was injured in the same
way.
The conductor and the motorman de-
serted the car and fed. The solitary po-
Gceman aboard the car rushed to the near
est patrol-box and rang in a call, and a
patrol wagon full of policemen were soon
on the spot.
The officers charged the crowd, clubbed
it vigorously and dispersed 1t, making
four or five arrests.
Exactly the same sort of an occurrence
happened on Thirteenth street above Will
low. Here, strangely enough, the jaw OF
another woman was broken by the stone
tbrowers and several others were cut By
flying glass. On Thirteenth street the
windows of eight cars in all were wrecked
before the police assumed control OF the
situation.

RATES TO ASCEND.
End of Contention In Fares From Port
land Is In Sight.


land Is I'm Sight.
PORTLAND, Or, Dec. 20.-Passenger
Agent Hurlburt of the Oregon Railway and
Navigation Company was asked to-day
when his company would restore higher
rates to San Francisco.
"The matter is still undecided he said.
"We are awaiting instructions from Mr..
McNeiIl 1t is probable that there will be
an advance about the same time the
Southern Pacific's advance goes into
effect"
The Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company has no desire to antagonize the
business interests of Portland by main
tanning useless rate cutting. which, as
some. of the merchants contend, is iniur-
ing home trade by taking people away to
San Francisco who would otherwise be
here to spend their money. Mr.. Hurlburt
had nothing to say about the contention
with the Southern Pacific, although he
admitted that if it was necessary to con-
tinue 81 so and So rates they could do it
without losing money. He further ad-
mitted that if it were not for antagonizing
local interests the war would be relent-
lessly forced against the Southern Pacific
people until they would be glad to discon-
Time the Shasta special, which is still the
torment of sailing days for the steamer
people.
