A TERRIBLE FATE.
A MAN LITERALLY CUT IN TWCM
BY A BIG SAW.
In Attempting to Clear the CON-
veyor When Choked-His Inn
plement Slipped and He
Fell Back on the Re-
volving Saw.


of the most horrifying accidents eva
er recorded occurred here yesterday
when Clyde R. Wyman, an employe
at the West q Slade mill, was liter
ally cut in twain by big saw. The
saw entered the body at the should
.er and made clean cut through
the entire length, leaving the two.
halves on the conveyor, a terrible
sight to behold.
Wyman had Just received en-.
ployment at the mill, and his duty
was to take charge of the slab l4sh-.
er. The conveyor choked, and
Wyman attempted TO clear 1T with
the pickaroon. The implement in
some manner, slipped, and Wyman
fell backward onto the revolving
saw. The next moment the body
had been severed. Death was in-
staneous. The accident was witness-
ed by some fellow workmen, and
the saw was stopped as soon as pos
sible, but not until it's deathly work
had been performed.
The coroner held an inquest over
the remains and from the facts
brought out no one could be blamed
for the terrible fate of the deceased.
Wyman was glass-blower by
trade, and in company with his wife
and a two. months old babe came to
the Pacific Coast few days ago.
He was 26 years of age. ~.
Portland, June 21.-P5rtland
Oregonian: A verdict of murder
in the second degree was returned
by the jury in the Martin V. Lea
sia case at $50 o'clock last night
The punishment is life imprison-
ment. Leasia appeared pleased
with the result and thanked his at
torneys for their efforts in his be-
half. To an Oregenian reporter
who asked him if he desired to
make statement he replied. 'I
have nothing to say"
The jury retired for deliberation
at o'clock after listening to COM
prehensive charge by Judge Sears,
which was generally acceptable by
both sides. Several of the jurors
voted at first for acquittal and the
others voted guilty without fixing
the degree Of crime. Then a juror.
moved that the degree be balloted
on, and on tbe first ballot seven
voted for murder in the first de-
gree, three for murder in the second
degree, and two for manslaughter.
Numerous ballots were taken before
an agreement was reached.

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY
His Brief to Cardinal Gibbons Urging
Measures for Support of Institution.

The first brief issued by Pope Plus
Y TO the Catholic Church I'm America,
and which was recently sent by mail
TO his eminence. Cardinal Gibbons, at
Baltimore. has been translated and was
last night made public. The paper re-
fers exclusively TO the Catholic Uni

Roman Church, With the Title Of
Santa Maria in Trastevere; Arch
bishop of Baltimore and Chancellor
OF the Catholic University at Wash

Beloved Son: Health and apostolic
benediction:
The condition of the university at
Washington has enlisted our deepest
sympathy and concern, inasmuch as
the report recently submitted by your
eminence depOses that its affairs are

follow the example of our predecessor
In the furtherance Of noble projects,
more especially such as are of great
moment and hold out the promise of
large advantage In this spirit we are
pleased to continue. and, as far as may
be TO Increase in the exercise of the
apostolic Office the interest which we
have ever cheri shed toward this dis
tinguished American foundation.
Wherefore we learn with genuine
satisfaction that the bishops charged
with the approval Of all others inter

be taken up i'm all the churches through
out the United States annually for ten
years on the first Sunday of Advent, or
the first convenient Sunday thereafter.
with a view of enhancing the dignity
and charging the influence of this noble
seat of learning.
This plan, the result of their joint
deliberations. we consider most bene-

and prayer that all the bishops of the
country, as well as the faithful who
have at heart the progress of learning
and religion, should labor strenuously
for the good of the university.
THAT God may be pleased graciously
to help this undertaking by His grace.
We lovingly impart 10 you and to the
faithful committed to your care, the

COAL TAR DYE FOUND
LABELED CHERRY COLOR
Bad Violation Of the Pure Food Law
Discovered.

One of the worst examples of viola
light has just been reported to the De-
partment of Agriculture by its agents
at San Francisco. A consignment re-
ceived there in bond and labeled cher
~ color was found to be nothing less
than coal tar dye, a specially injurious
substance
The cargo was declared to consist of
purely vegetable matter. made up to
color fruits in their preparation as pre-
serves.
A sample was inspected by Prof.
George e. Colby. of the University of
California. who has been delegated TO
represent the department at the port of
San Francisco. A duplicate was for
warded here for supplemental analysis.
10 check uD the work of the Western
bureau but the judgment of the ex-
perts there is accepted in releasing or
condemning goods. This saves the de-
lay of ten days necessitated by making
the examinations in Washington.
On receipt Of Prof Colbys report by
telegraph the consignment OF cherry
color has been refused admission and its
return to Posen. Prussia, ordered. Two
reasons were assigned for this action.
either OF which is sufficient under the
law to exclude any food products: con-
tanning a substance Injurious to health
and goods falsely labeled
In consequence of the work OF the de-
partment. under DR.. II. w Wiley in
scrutinizing food imports. a warning
notice has been sent abroad by New
York importers.
They have informed the houses which
send them consignments that each cargo
must be accompanied hencefOrth by an
absolute guarantee OF all expenses OF
examination and return in case Of con-
demnation here. This puts on the foreign
firms all responsibility for requiring
care in preparation of food products and
is expected TO aid greatly the rigorous
supervision now conducted by the De-
partment of Agriculture.

Thousands of Foreigners Natu1alized in

Startling irregularities In the naturali-

Mr.. Van Duzen. who is a close friend

ing carried out by the State and Federal
courts. He has been in many of the
central and Western States. He found
many anarchists were naturalized; In
some cases Japanese were admitted 20
citizenship i'm plain violation of law, and
wholesale naturalization was quite com
mon. One Chicago judge is alleged to
have admitted 1,SOO foreigners to citizen

would have been impossible had the
oath been administered to each individ-
ual separately, as the law requires.

CHEAPER TO HAUL DIRT
THAN FIGHT LAW SUIT
B. & o. Decides to Comply With Re-
quirements Of District.

The Baltimore and Ohio officers
have changed their minds about
opposing the order of the Dis
trict 10 cart 10 such part Of
the city as directed the pavement and
other material in the streets which have
been condemned for the use Of the rail-
road.
1t was at first asserted that the rail-
road would take the matter into court.
but this morning one Of the local coun-
sci of the company said the cost OF fight
ing the District in a suit and the delay
which would result would prove more
costly than moving the material.
For this reason the company had de-
cided not TO fight, and yesterday the Of
hcers accepted the permit from the Dis
trict in which is the provision that the
hauling must be done by the railroad.
The permit allows the company TO begin
work on the Union Station site. south OF
