gon Railroad and Navigation compa-
ny's Heppner branch.
Almost the entire residence portion

ground, escaped.
Huge powders weighing ton were
CuIIleu uOWn w Nue Cullthl, hhu many
people were Silled by being crushed
against the rocky bluff. Early in the
afternoon thunderstorm occurred,
covering a wide region Of country, and
later heavy rain storm set in, many
OF the small streams overfowing their
banks in a short time. Bridges were
swept away like straws. AS soon as
possible after tNr food had subsded
the work of relief was commenced by
the citizens of the town.
Dozens of bodies were found lodged
along the bends Of Willow creek, and
in several places they were piled ovei
one another.
Fifteen buildings in the town Of Lex
ington, nine miles below Heppner, or
Willow creek. were washed away, but
with no loss of life, the inhabitants
having time to save themselves from
the surging torrent.

NEW YORK, June l7.-Frank Dean,
vice president Of the Seaboard Nation
vi bank, committed suicide at his
home, 152 Highland avenue Orange,
N. j., by shooting himself through the
head. No reason is given for the act
other than dependency due to the
continued Illness OF his wife and the
mental strain following upon the re-
cent Nitical condition Of his twelve
year-old son, now eonvalescing from
pneumonia.
MIR. Dean arose at his usual hour
and seemingly prepared for breakfast
While 1t was being placed upon the
table the servants heard the sound OF
a shot and found Mr.. Dean dead In his
room. The revolver was still clutched
In his hand. The bullet entered just
over the right ear, and DR.. Wakely
who was summoned, said that death
must have been instantaneous.
Mrs. Dean has been an invalid for 9
long time, and she and her husband
made few ncquaintances In East Or
ange, although they had lived there
for FIVE years. Mr. Dean, 80 far as
known, was not member Of any loca
club or organization and lived very

Accepted.
SCRANTON, Pa, June 1T.-There
will be no strike in the anthracite re-
gion growing out of the refusal OF the
operators to recognize the credentials
Of District Presidents Nichols, Fahy
and Dettrey, selected by the joint ex-
ecutive board OF the United Mine
Workers as the miners representatives
on the board of conciliation.
The convention of the United Mine
Workers elected the three district pres
idents by districts as their representa-
tives, and the operators, through Pres
ident George f. Baer of the Reading
company, announced that this action
was satisfactory.
Mr. Connell of the concillation board,
on the one hand, and President Mitch
ell, on the other, communicated with
one another through Dr.. Charles p.
Neill, who was sent here as a peace
envoy by some members of the strike
commission, and the result was n ten
tative agreement that if the miners In
the three separate district conventions
elected representatives those repre-
sentatives would Dot be objected to by
( the operators.

Leo Get. Gold Cross From New York.

Leo Gets Gold Cross From New York.
ROME, June 17-Count Camille Pee
CT, the pope's nephew, presented the
pontiff in the name of Charles Astor
Brlsted and his daughters of New York
magnificent gold pectoral cross
adorned with diamonds, pearls and ru-
bies. His holiness was much pleased
with the gift and charged his nephew
to convey his appreciation and thanks
TO the donors. The conversation during
Count Pecci's visit turned on the re-
cent reports of serious illness and even
the death of the pontifP, at which
Pope Leo showed considerable irrita-
ton and annoyance. His nephew in
reassuring him said: Your holiness
must keep In mind the italian proverb,
The announcement of ones death al
ways adds years to ones life This as
sures that you will live to see a hun
dred," at which remark the pope
laughed heartily.

DEATH LIST OF HEPPNER.
May Reach 3OO-Over 100 Yet to Dc
Accounted For.

Accounted FOR.
HEPPNER, Ore, June 1.-THE few
survivors of the cloudburst which
swept away the town Of Heppner have
gathered up the bodies of 800 of their
fellow citizens and are asking the
neighboring towns for collins 70 Put
them in and for large force of men
to aid in their burial.
In addition, the bodies of seven Chi
nese, three japanese and twenty one
strangers and babies, names unknown,
go to swell the list.
More than 100 people remain to be
accounted for.
1t is now known that at least 300
people were drowned, and 115 corpses
have been hastily buried in wooden
boxes, while some were merely wrap
ped in blankets. There were still sew
eral wagon loads of dead unburied.
Heppner itself has now been pretty
well searched except in piles of debris,
where, it is thought, great numbers Of
bodies will be found.
Between lone and Heppner there are
mounds of debris, but the flood passed
so quickly that the roads have not
been seriously damaged.
1t looks strange to see the heavy
steel rails bent and twisted like cork
screws and big tlmbers splintered like
match wood.
In Heppper itself the food swept a
clean path a mile long and two blocks
wide through the town, following gen
orally the course of Willow creek.
Among the incidents of the catastro-
phe was the heroic saving Of three
lives by Julius Keitley, an old man
Of seventy years. James Herman, the
Oregon Railway and Navigation COM
pany's agent, met his death at the
telegraph key trying to call Portland
to inform the outside world of the inn
pending calamity.

BROOKLYN, June 16.-Shamrock
Ill, Britain's latest and best flier Of

alongside the main pier In Erie basin

But figures of speech cannot lift the

Tragedy Was an Act of Mercy

From Civil War.

BELGRADE, Servia. June 1T.-The
~osition of King Peter I. promises TO
little more than that of a royal cap
e. The real government of the coun-
will be Il military dictatorship un.
Che leaders Of the revolution, Colo.
Maschin and Colonel Niitschitch.
! new king is almost without any
'sonal adherents, and the ruling splr-
I of the army, 1t Is thought probable,
would just as readily murder him as
they did his predecess or should I've OPP
pose their aims.
At the present moment the whole
country is under military rule, and, al
though no projects In the country dis
tricts have been revoked, each is ac-
companied by an army officer who at
tends the prefect wherever he goes,
even to the telephone. This policy has
led to one good result Not single
case OF disorder anywhere has been
reported.
Extremely forcible arguments were
found necessary to suppress the radl-
cal aspirations of n republic. The fore
most advocate Of the creation of re-
publican form of government was Lju-
bomir Schickovics, the editor of the
Belgrade Odjek. Finding him imper-
vious to arguments, the conspirators
invited him to dinner ut the Officers
club. During the dinner his host told
him that unless he agreed to support
Prince Peter Karageorgevtch there
would be one head less in Belgrade
that night NJ. Schickovics yielded to
the force of this reasoning and accept
ed the situation. He il now minister
of justice in the new government.
The deliberations of the members OF
the senate and skupshtina on the re-
publican question were materially
hastened by the attendance of one OF
the leaders of the revolution. Colonel
Mitschitch. The colonel took no part
In the proceedings, but his presence
was significant enough to induce the
members tosaccept the army's choice
Premier Avakumovics told the depu
ties that 1t was useless to talk of re
public, as neither Russia nor Austria
would permit it. He further urged
that the proposed new constitution
would give King Peter far less power
than that enjoyed by the president OF
the United States.
One of the highest officials of the
"esent government asked number
foreign journalists what Europe
fought Of the way in which the Ser
ian revolution was carried out. He
as told bluntly that II was considered
4 brutal act. He thereupon explained
that from his point of view the assas
sination Of the king and queen was ar
act Of mercy, as by utterly destroying
the dynasty instead Of deporting the
sovereign the likelihood of a civil wal
was precluded.
The king Of Servia Mt Geneva has re
ceived the following message from the
czar:
Learning that the senate and the
skupshtina had formally proclaimed
you king of Servia, | venture to ex-
press to your majesty sincere wishes
for the prosperity of your country and
the hope that God may come to your
assistance In the enterprise you have
undertaken for the happiness of your
DeODle"

all classes are taken to Bilibid prison,
the Philippine penitentiary, to serve
their time.
The city Of Manila also boasts an
efficient fire department under Chief
Bonner, formerly of the New York fire
department. 1t is well equipped with
apparatus and has crews of Americans
and natives mixed. The city has a good
water system and fires are much less
disastrous than under the old system.
This is due not alone to the improve
ment in the fire fighting facilities Of
the city, Captain Burt says, but to
the change in construction of the
houses there. The business part OF the
town has been almost rebuilt since
American occupation, fiimsy structures
being replaced by more substantial
buildings. In the sections occupied by
natives, conditions are still rather bad
for successful fire fighting. The native
huts are built of infammable fibres
and grass and are so crowded together
