Usual Majority.
Boston, Nov. 4.-With the exception
of the falling off of the Socialist vote
the election in Massachusetts yester.
day very nearly paralleled that of last
year. Governor John L. Bates was
reelected by the Republicans by q
plurality of 35,899 over Colonel viii,
liam A. Castor, in total vote only
slightly under that of 1902, when Bates
won by 37,120 plurality.
The vote for the leading candidates
yesterday was: Bates, 1919, 1893; Gas.
ton, 166, ,544-both gaining about 5000
over last year, but as the Socialist
dropped from 33,628 to a little more
than 25,000, and that for the Prohibi.
tion and Socialist Labor candidates
remained about the same, the total
vote for all candidates fell just short
of that of last year, the largest in the
history of tho state

TWO CABLE CARS
COLLIDE IN FOG

Car Heavily Laden With Passengers
Crashes Into Another With Terrific
Force and Fatal Results.
Kansas City, Nov. A dense fog
and slippery track caused the collision
of two cable cars today, resulting in
the death of one person and the injury
of 19 others, four perhaps fatally
The dead:
Miss Emma Homer, a clerk, Kansas
City, Kans.
Most of the injured were working
girls. The train heavily laden with
passengers, had reached Summit
street, four blocks east of the top of
the Twelfth street viaduct. At Sum-
nit street the first car had stopped to
let off a passenger when the gripman
lost his grip on the cables and the
train started back. A heavy fog
made it impossible to see a block
ahead and indescribable confusion en-
sued, many passengers on the rear
platforms jumping and escaping with
but slight injuries.
When the train reached the top of
the viaduct, it was going at a rate of
speed of perhaps 80 miles an hour.
Two blocks away, midway the down
incline, another heavily laden train
was making it's way upward.
The fog was SO dense that neither
crew cOuI6 600 tho other and mot I'M
til the runaway train was within few
feet of the second train did those on
latter realize any danger
The cars came together with terrific
force, throwing the passengers in
every direction. Several of the in
jured were thrown clear Of the viaduct
railing and falling 20 feet to the rail-
way yards below sustained injuries
more or less serious.

THE PLANT ORDERED.
For Processing Establishment and
Packing House for Corvallis.

Oregon and Washington together
only produce fifteen millions pounds
of prunes. California produces an.
nually $50 million pounds. One
little valley in the STATE, the Santa
Clara Valley alone yields ninety
million pounds. The growers of
the state have on hands now, unsold
from last years crop, a little mat
ter OF twenty million pounds, five
million pounds more by the way,
than the combined Oregon and
Washington CROP
Such is the statement of Manager
Robert Johnson. of the Corvallis &
Benton County Prune Company, ar
rived Thursday from a three weeks
visit to California. in which much
of his time was spent in the prune
districts, in packing houses and
in other departments of the great
prune industry of the state He
was given complete insight under
most favorable auspices into the
processing and packing methods,
matters that are usually kept secret
from the general public He or
dered, while absent, a processing
and packing plant, and provided the
crop in this vicinity is good, will
put such an establishment into op-
Grafton this season. He made
complete study of the methods and
processes employed in every de-
partment. The Californians have
everything in this respect down to
fine art, and with their various
fruits and enormous shipments lead
the world in preparing goods for
the market.
Mr. Johnson was for several daysin
San Francisco, and met many old
Corvallisites there. Sol Stock is in
the wholesale millinery trade, and
with his partners is doing an ex-
tensive business. Mr.. Jesse Tun-
nlcllffe has fine position asdraugh.
tsman is one of the large establish
ments there. NJ. S. Neugass is
partner in the West Coast Furni-
ture Company. occupying there
stories of a building that near
ly covers a block and employing
eighty men. Charles Pearse is
manager of company that manu-
tactures fuel out OF coal dust mixed
with crude California petroleum.
The mixture is hardened and pres
sed into small brickettes, convent
ent for handling and valued as

His friends say that Mr. Johnson's
old bachelor heart has aip-Hopped

brances of others he saw in Calf
