ANOTHER SEWER CAVE.
WILLIAM GUNNER WAS THE
VICTIM OF THIS ONE.
Caught By the Dirt, But Not Injured,
Although It Was Close Call For
Him.

Another victim, William Dummor,
was caught by slide in the sewer
trench on East Fourth street yesterday
morning at O'Clock and had hair
breadth escape from being crushed to
death. AS he was shoveling at the bot
tom of the trench, which is ten feet
deep, he saw the dirt start to crumble
and ran for his life, reaching the edge
of the caving ground, when a cross pipe
stopped him and the earth closed in
around him up to his knees. He was
extricated by the men and found to be
uninjured.
The slide was about 20 feet in length
and the great chunks of dirt that rolled
down into the trench impressed one
that it was a close call for Drummer,
who was working at about the middle
point.
Running parallel with the excavation
is an old gas trench, which, together
with the sandy condition of the earth,
renders the ground very insecure.
Contractor Folsom will make the
work safe by timbering the trench as
the excavation proceeds

THE MINING CONGRESS,
MEETING OF THE COMMITTEE ON
SUBJECTS AND PAPERS.
Relation of Investors and Miners to
Be Considered-More Contribu-
tions-Delegates Appointed.

At a meeting of the mining congress
committee on subjects and papers yes
terday, the schedule of papers was re-
ported practically complete, and will be
so reported to the congress when it con-
venes. The committee did not deem it
advisable to make the programme pub
lie until it is acted upon formally by
the congres SIS on its first days session.
but the character of the work to be
presented may be inferred from the po-
siticns Of some of the authors. One is
the state mining inspector of Pennsyl-
Fania; another Is the general manager
of the H. c. Prick Coal and Coke COM
pany Of Pittsburg, and others are
equally prominent III their respective
feds.
The relation of investors and miners
will probably be considered by one of
the best known investors in this coun-
try, q gentleman whose relations with
miners and foreign investors make him
al International authority on the sub
Ject. Among the local men TO be heard
are two or three whose opinions on
technical subjects will be received with
Difference wherever mining is carried
on. The committee will hold its final
meeting next Saturday afternoon, and
VIII then announce the papers and their
authors.

HAVE GONE NORTH.
Union Pacific People Inspect the
Short Line.

Refreshed by a bath i'm Great Salt

Dickinson, Chief Engineer Berry,
Freight Traffic Manager Munroe Gen
eral Passenger Agent Lomax, Chair
man of the Executive Committee E. H.
Hartman, of the Union Pacific, and f.
L. Trudeau of New York City went
north yesterday, to look over the Ore
gon Short Line and the Oregon Rail-
way & Navigation companys lines.
These officials have been making a tour
of the Union Pacific, and Mr.. Harri-
man, being heavily interested in the
Short Line, he wanted on his own be-
half and that of others, to look over
the latter road.
With the party went General Man
ager Bancroft of the Short Line, Cen
eral Traffic Manager Eccles, Secretary
Tooker and Mr.. Calvin. The party will
be absent for several days.
The Union Pacific officials were not
expected to arrive in the city until yes
terday morning. but concluded to come
down the evening before, and arrived
in the city at midnight, and were taken
to Saltair, where they could enjoy
nights rest by the side of the waters.
Then they took a bath early. and came
up town at noon, very much refreshed
and inviCorated.
President Burt said matters connect
ed with the Union Pacific were in a
very satisfactory condition, and that
he was pleased at the amount of bust
ness which was being done. The road
was demonstrating that the country
through which it passed was self-sus-
tanning. and that the line was a good
one. He said there were no changes
contemplated in the immediate future.
The directors We're we'll satisfied with
the work which had been done.
EIr. Dickinson had very little to say,
stating that the road was in a very
good condition.
Freight Traffic Manager Munroe was,
of course, reticent, excepting as to gen
eral matters, saying the freight depart
ment was doing exceedingly well, on
account of the stock business
