FRANK BEERS BRAVE ACT
Stopped Runaway Horse on Main
Street This Afternoon.

Frank Beers, the expressman, was
the hero in a runaway that occurred
this afternoon, and he is receiving con-
gratulations for his brave act. A horse
attached to buggy. driven by young
boy named Mcbride, became fright
ened and ran away. The animal was
going down Main street at a breakneck
speed, while Mcbride was pulling on
the reins with all his might and
screaming at the top of his voice. Sew
eral persons ran into the street and
attempted to stop the frightened ami
NAL, but were unsuccessful. AS the
horse started across Third street Mr..
Beers grabbed the bride on the horse
and after being dragged nearly block
succeeded in getting the beast under
control. In the meantime young Nc
Bride tainted from fright. He was
taken from the vehicle and carried to
the sidewalk where he was revived.
Fortunately the young man escaped
without injury.

movement The detectives are trac-
| ing back his movements to the night
of the wreck, and expect to be able to
show that he was in the neighborhood
of the open switch only a short time
before the flyer plunged through it.
General Superintendent Storrs of the
Lake Shore, said:
Engineer Tyler of the wrecked
train applied the emergency brake 500
feet away from the switch, which al
lowed the train to run into the siding.
This proves conclusively that the mis-
creant who sought to wreck the train
waited until it had approached too
near the switch for Tyler to stop. Ty-
Ter would certainly nave seen the
switch light had it been against him,
in time to have come to a stop. An
other point which is conclusive is that
the switch was opened by someone
who had thorough knowledge of rail-
road methods and customs"
State Railroad Commissioner Morris
is having investigated by mis- inspec-
tors, a vacant building near the switch
He has learned that this vacant build
ing has long been used by tramps, and
that several hoboes were seen in the
vicinity of the wreck shortly before,
but that none could be found immedi-
ately after.
The Lake Shore company has offered
a reward of $4,000 to anyone who could
furnish information leading to the ar
rest of the person who committed the
crime.

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The Bo-

cial warning to American diplomats
that they must not make public
charges or complaints against other
members of the corps, as Mr.. Bowen
did, and that they must not become
personally interested in private enter

are accredited, for which Mr.. LOOMS
was criticized.
Secretary Taft's report to the presi-
dent in which he exonerates Mr.. LOOM
is on the charges on dishonesty but
criticizes him for indiscretion, and the
presidents letter to Mr.. Taft, con-
demning Mr.. Bowen for disfoyalty and
disobedience of the state department
regulations and ordering his dismissal:
were issued as public documents and
will be sent to every one connected
with the state department and scatter

re Asked to Extend Time on
Options for Rights Of Way in
Kickitat County.

Notwithstanding that President Ell
e 1ha Northern Pacific has an
mood that the Northern Pacific rail-
- oompany is not contemplating

o,.idant that a road is to be built along

81 engineers has been at work running

Last week C. E. Moulton, a former
attorney for the Northern Pacific, was
in WaIla Walla and while mere he mad
conferences with a number of Walla
Wa1la people who own land in that
section of the country. Some time ago
these people were approached by a
man representing himself as agent of
a new railroad company who made an
agreement with them for a right Of
way over their farms. The right of
way deeds were made out and a small
money consideration was paid by the
agent The deeds were placed in a
local bank, however, to be neld in
escrow, until the company decided
whether the right of way was desired
or not The time limit on some of the
options will expire soon and when Mr..
Moulton was here last week he made
an effort to get the land owners to ex-
tend the time of the options. Whether
he succeeded in each case is not known
but one of the owners refused to grant
an extension.
While the officials of the Northern
Pacific dsclaim any knowledge of the
movements of the surveyors and as

Mr.. Lynch Defines his
Position on Water Question

In speech delivered before the La
dies Republican club on Tuesday, Mr.
VIM. j. Lynch, Republican candidate
for mayor, defined his attitude on the
question of an increased water supply
for this city. 1t is a clear, concise
and unequivocal statement showing
just where Mr.. Lynch AMI the Repub-
lican party stand on this all-important
question. Mr.. Thompson, the Kearns
mayoralty candidate, refused to tell
the people what his position regarding
the water supply is. 1t is fair to pre-
sumo, however, that his policy will be
similar to what it was during his last
term of Office that was to spend all
the money possible and get no water.
Mr.. Lynch's address to the Repub-
lican ladies was as follows:
Mrs. President and Ladies':
1 am pleased to meet with you this
afternoon, and to have the privilege
of making a brief address before this
representative body of citizens.
