PIPING OIL ACROSS PANAMA

Following upon the Oil Trusts legal troubles, comes the news that it's only important competitor. The Union Oh Company. has completed a pipe line across the Isthmus of Panama, says Wilbur Bassett in the Technical World Magazine for December This com pany controls the output of the Cali fornia oil fields; and by cutting off the long ocean trip around Cape Horn, the Independent company gains power and prestige which will enable it to com pete with the supposed master of the oil market.
 Many troubles were encountered by the builders of this great pipe line fo= carrying crude oil. There were over murdered rivers and streams to cross. while in many places the land was so spongy that the pipe line had buried itself in the bog before the construction gang was out of sight. Seventeen bricks an hour was the record of the negro bricklayers who did the building work. which amply illustrates the labor difficulties involved in the task The pipe used Is of S-inch interior diameter tested to 1900 pounds pressure. and weighs approximately 600 pounds to the joint. The iron pipe had to be painted before shipping. to prevent the action of heat and moisture. After dis

FRANK |. CRISWfll
 HAS A BROKEN BACK
HIs Injury in the Railroad Wreck Near Tucson More Serious than Was at First Supposed.

James F. Bark returned yesterday
 morning from Tucson. where he had been called on Sunday night by the
 injury received by Frank Criswell in a railroad collision near Vail's Station.
 The injury was much more serious
 than was at first reported for Mir. Criswell's back was broken though
 the spinal cord was not severed. IL
 was the opinion of the surgeons there
 that he would not only survive but that he would regain use of himself It will be though. three months before he
 will be able to be on his feet. An eff fort will be made to bring him to Phoenix within a few days. Dr. Wy lie left for Tucson night before last to see him and will return this morn ing.
 Mir. Bark says that the most wonder full thing about the wreck is that any of the occupants of the caboose which was struck by the flying engine lived through the disaster. yet none of them except Mir. Criswell was hurt beyond a few scratches There were even per sons in the dead" or rear cabOose. The force with which the engine struck 1t is shown in the circumstance that the upper half of the caboose was thrown back on top Of the engine and three of the trainment were carried there with 1t and crawled down unharmed. One man who was picked out of the debris had so narrow an escape that he will shiver for years when he thinks of it. A splinter of hard wood several feet in length was driven horizontally through the top of his hat. so close to his skull that the skin was abraded.
 As was stated in the telegraphic ac- count of the wreck printed in The Re publican on Monday morning Conduc- tor Compton was hurled. how he has not the slightest idea. from his caboose into the middle of the one in front of it where landed unhurt though filled with wonder at what had happened. ! When he revovered from his dazed condition his first move was to go through his train inquiring of all the members of the crew for a revolver He very naturally wanted to kill the ! engineer of the flying engine Per haps fortunately there was no weapon at hand.
