Cargo of Wheat and Machinery Taken
of; Yesterday.

Word was received in Walla Walla
yesterday that herculean efforts are
being made 20 save the steamer Je-
rome, wrecked in the Columbia river
last Saturday, eight miles below t.
mouth Of Snake river. The cargo
1000 bushels of wheat was removed
and the machinery taken out in order
to tighten the boat. The removing of
the machinery was a difficult task ow
ing to the position of the wreck and
the lack of hosting apparatus. 1t
was found mat a sharp rock pierced
the bottom of the hull, slowing in a
big hole. In addition to this the bow
OF the boat was badly wrecked by

RAY COX PROVES Merry
Stops Runaway Team at Risk of His
Own Life.

Rushing into the stree, and grasping
a runaway team by the bits and bring
ing it to a stop before any damage to
passing teams was done, Ray Cox per-
formed a nervy act in Fourth street
his morning. A score of pedestrians
watching the runaway expected to see
the young man dragged beneath the
horses hoofs, but ne brought the ex
cited team to a stop af er being drag
ged a hundred feet. The team belong
ed to the Eilers' Piano house. While
standing at the O. r. & n. depot the
horses became frightened and dashed
up Elm ana Ou- Fourth street at a
frightful clip. The tongue of the
wagon was snapped off short and the
vehicle began careening from one
side of the street to the other, ad
ding terror to the already frigh ened
horses. AS they passed the new Tachi
building, Mr.. Cox rushed into the
street and grasped one of the horses
by the biz, bringing the team to
stop, after being dregged a consid-
cradle distance.

City Is Liable.

IF city undertakes to alter, re-
pair or improve its streets it is in duty
bound to use reasonable precautions to
guard the public from injury, and in
doing so may, if necessary, tempor-
arily close said street from public
travel is the meat of the decision rem
1ered by the supreme court, sustain
ing judgment for $3.50 recovered
by Benjamin H. Peterson against the
city of Seattle.
When Eastlake street was being
graded Peterson was driving a grad
ing wagon down Denny way. The
team ran away and as the wagon
struck Eastlake avenue, Peterson was
thrown out, the wagon passed over
him and the team continued it's runa-
way for some distance The city con-
tended that the runaway caused the
accident and that it would have oc-
CURED if the street had been in perfec-
condition.

Important Rulinq.

In affirming the decision Of the King
county court for defendant in the suit
of c. J. Stay on & Co., against D.
w. Field to recover a commission on
the sale of real estate the supreme
court yesterday disposed of an as
signment of alleged error due to the
failure of the trial judge to sign a
statement of facts:
1T is the proper and correct prac-
tice for party to request findings
in his own favor to which he may
think himself entitled so that he may
make proper exceptions to their re-
fusal. But such findings in his IA
vor having been refused and accepted
%, he must, if he desires to assign err
ror On failureerror on a failure to
make any findings or conclusions what
ever also request the court to make
such findings as it thinks the evil
dence warrants.
This was not done by appellant in
this action and so the court re-
fuses o grant a new trial.
