GOES TlROUGH A TREsTLE.
Freight Wreck ON the N. r., With
Two Men Injured.

Northern Pacific freight train No. 50
went through trestle between tunnels

west of Stampede. a small station on the
main line ninety-nine miles from Seattle.
early yesterday morning. John Clark, OF
Tacoma, engineer, and fireman, whose
name cannot be learned, went down with
the wreck and were badly cut up. Both
men saved their lives by jumping after

in the debris and Is the worse injured OF
the two. They were brought to Tacoma
on q special sent out to bring passengers
on the stalled overland in.
The train was proceeding at slow
speed when It reached the trestle. Recent
rains had undermined the foundation, and
the engine and two cars had just passed
on the structure when, without a warning
signal. the framework gave way beneath
the weight. The engineer at the time had
his hand on the throttle. The fireman, at
the first crack, cried out, Lookout and
jumped to the left. Clark sprang after
the engine plunged into the abyss, thirty
feet below. The first two cars behind
the engine followed and beneath this debris
Clark was partially buried. He was taken
out by the train crew, and was able to
walk about, but was dazed.

Accusation Of Embexzlement
Against Well Known Lawyer.
CLIENT MAKES THE COMPLAINT
charged with settling suit ON Note
of 5000 for $50 and Appropriating
Eroeseds 70 HIS Own Usc--Dis-
bArnsnt Preceedinxs Commenced
Once nat Never Pushed-ReIeased
On His Personal Recosnixance.

NJ L. Baer, q well-known local attorney,
was arrested yesterday upon warrant
sworn out in Judge Cams court charging
him with embexxiement. The complainant
IN the case is 8. Kloush, who claims that
Bacr embexzled go Of his money.
OF tisbarment proceedings which were In
stituted against Baer in the superior court
some months ago by Klough and others.
The disbarment proceedings have never
been brought to trial.
The facts upon which disbarment pro-
ceedings and ultimately criminal prose-
cusion, are based are said to be as foiiows:
Sometime In the early part OF this year
Klough claims that he and some OF his
brrdness associates retained Baer to col
lect $500 note for them. 1t is claimed
that he instituted q civil suit in the SUI
perior court against the maker of the note
10 enforce its collection, and subsequently
settled the matter for 500, which, 1t Is
claimed, the defendant paid him. Baer at
the same time agreeing to a dlsmlssal OF
Il is claimed that Baer did not tell his
clients OF the alleged settlement Of the suit
and that when they would ask him now ne
was progressing in making the collection
he would tell them that owing to unavoid-
able legal delays he had not succeeded IN
getting the case set for trial.
Ultimately. however, 1t is said, the clients
OF Baer learned that he had settled the
suit, and demanded the payment of their
money. He did not pay 1t, and finally
Judge Richard winsor was re-
tained to collect the money from
Baer. The latter began suit
IA the superior court, and had an or
der signed directing Baer to show cause
why he should not pay the money into
the registry of the court, and also citing
him to show. cause why he should not be
disbarred. The hearing of these orders has
not been had.
Yesterday the former clients of Baer
reached the conclusion to lay the matter
before the prosecuting attorneys Office,
and after consultation with Mr.. McElroy
q warrant was issued for Baer's arrest. He
was brought into court, and Judge Cam
released him upon his personal recogniz-
ance to appear today. Baer could not be
found last night to give HIS version OF the
story.
Baer is well-known in the city. He has
lived here many years, and at one time
was somewhat prominent in politics. In
1892 he ran on the Democratic ticket for
municipal Judge, but was defeated.

SLIDES ON FIRST AVENUE.


The heavy rains Of the last several days
are undermining the emhankments on the
east side OF First avenue, between Pine
and Blanchard streets, and 1t is feared that
some of the buildings on the bluffs over
looking the street will be thrown into the
street Should there be continuance OF
the washing.
There was an unusually heavy slide there
a year ago that required the work Of sew
eral weeks to cart off,. and at that time
the city scaled down the embankments.
smoothing them of in an incline that II
was hoped would run OF the rain and pre-
vent such accidents thereafter. But the
downpours of early this week soaked
through the upper part Of the banks, espe-
cially between Virginia and Blanchard
streets, until great weights Of earth slid
down to the sidewalk, in one place cover
ing nearly the entire width of the walk.
In other places fences have been torn down
by the washouts, and people living above
the street are fearful that their houses will
be demolished in another storm. Up to
yesterday afternoon nothing had been done
to support these houses and the sidewalks
had not been cleaned.

the only city in the world that is bothered

day. THAT little town of Vancouver can
