Lands Heavily on Presidents Of
-
The Railroads
THEY STRUT ABOUT IN DRESS SUITS"
HANsBROUGH DECLARES OFF,
GALS SHOULD SPEND LESS
TIME IN SWELL HOTELS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator
Hansbrough today said:
IF the railroad presidents of the
country would spend more time in
managing the roads affairs and less
in strutting about the swell hotels in
dress suits there would not be so
many shortages of cars, causing sur
fering and death in remote parts of
the country"
He had just left a conference OF rns
presidents when he spoke. He con-
tinued
"All we can do is to investigate and
fix the responsibility We cannot rem
edy the trouble with the present laws.
If the commerce commission Is en-
powered to order cars from one part
of the country to another when need
ed the situation would be relieved
SINE. Also it would prevent the pres
ent demurrage charges, as shippers
often find it cheaper to hold a car for
a month at a dollar a day than to pay
storage"

1t appears ill feeling existed between
the citizens of Brownsville and the

wholly unimportant, as nothing that oc-

cover Of night, they made an attack
upon citizens.
Nine to 20 colored soldiers took part
in the attack. They leaped over the

at whomsoever they saw. They shot
into houses where they saw lights
The wOuld-be murderers must have
known that in the houses were many

North Coast Line viii Traverse This

new ARTICLES ARE FILED IN OLYMPIA
DOCUMENTS SHOW THAT STRA-
HORN LINE WILL REACH
EUREKA IN TIME.

The North Coast Railroad company,
Robert E. Strahorns company, which
Is working on a line from Spokane 70
Seattle, has filed amended articles or
incorporation at Olympia, which show
that the road will traverse Walla WAL
la, Spokane, Whitman, Adams, Frank

counties.
The new articles of Incorporation
cover a series of branch lines that will
tap many of the productive regions of
eastern Washington.
Branch lines are proposed as fol-
lows: From a point in Spokane coun-
ty to Pennington, Whitman county;
from a point n the main line in Benton
or Franklin county through Benton.
Franklin and Walla Walla counties, IS
miles; from a point in Adams county
to Eureka Junction in Walla Walla
county; from a point in Adams county
to Davenport, Lincoln county; and
from a point in Adams county to VIII

The capital stock of the company is
100000, and the principal place Of
business is Spokane.

pleasant OdOrs whatsoever and that the
company would make all necessary re-
pairs within a year The company al
so agreed to take city warrants for
payment, 40 per cent payable when
the site was chosen, 35 per cent of price
payable when the incineratOr was
ready to operate and the balance when
the same was accepted.
1t is estimated that the cost of con-
suming the garbage will not exceed so
cents per ton, and that this may be
lowered with experience in operating
the plant.

HELD UNDER SURVEILLANCE

Walter McCalley was taken into
custody yesterday in Spokane by
Sheriff Howard Doak. He was not
placed in Jail, but was kept under sur
vejllance. Ample bonds were offer
ed, but the officers were of the opin-
ion that he would not run away.
Sheriff Painter arrived at Spokane
this morning and leaves with Mccall
ley for Walla Walla on the 4:3O train
this afternoon and will arrive here
tomorrow morning about! O'Clock.
All sorts Of sensational rumors are
flying about today as to the charges
which will be brought against Mccall
ley at his hearing. Among them is one
that he kept Miss Villa prisoner in
a room at Spokane for three days to
make her sign a contract releasing
him from all claims she might have
against him on account of the child,
which was worn recently in Portland.
Late this afternoon a request from
Spokane was made to Judge Huffman
asking that he consent to release Nc
Galley on bonds supplied at Spokane.
The judge announced he would take
the matter under advisement
Should this request be granted
Sheriff Painter will return alone and
McCalley will not appear until the
date set for his trial.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-Throttled in
the grip of a tight money squeeze,
with stocks slumping on Wall street
today there is virtually a rich mans
panic in progress
Millions are already lost and many
traders forced to the wall. With call

sight The pools threw over thousands
Of shares today to tighten the burden.
The Vanderbilts and Morgan rushed
to aid the situation and are announcing
at noon that all interest payments on
all funded debts of the Vanderbilt
systems due January l will be paid at
once.
The Standard Oil crowd is reported
to have taken advantage of the situa-
ton to pound the market and bring
out the loosely held stocks.

dred million issue of the ST. Paul, ira
'ders and pool operators rushed to get

Ten shots were fired into one house
where there were two women and five
children and that they escaped is re-
markable.
A lieutenant of police rode toward
the firing and saw Is colored soldiers.
They killed his horse and shot the right
arm of the officer, which was later
amputated.
Murder Was Committed.
The soldiers shot into saloon and
killed the bartender. No individual
raiders were recognized but many Wit

and clips from government rifles were
found on the ground and were only
corroborative. Although houses were
riddled, no bullet holes appear in any
structure of the fort, thus disproving
the contention that the citizens started
the firing.
The citizens were taken wholly un-

Edgar Davenport Thinks He Is
Marked for Cruel Slaughter.
Laboring under the hallucination
that everybody was pursuing him,
that God had cursed him and begging
everybody to pray for him, Edgar
Davenport, an elderly resident of
Walla Walla, was committed to the
asylum by Judge Brents yesterday
afternoon.
Davenport has been nervous and
fearful since childhood, according to
the testimony of his sister. Severe at
tacks have been an affair of the past
two or three weeks. His only desire
seems to be to escape from those
whom he thinks are pursuing him and
he dares not be alone even for a mo-
ment.
The examination was conducted by
Drs Stewart and Robinson.

NEW BICYCLE AND PARKING BILLS
COME UP BEFORE CITY COUNCIL

The bad bicycle rider came in for a
large share Of the attention Of the city
council last night and an ordinance
was passed with emergency speed pro-
viding that rider should lismount 20
feet away from any girl or woman or
any child over seven years Of age.
The ordinance was drawn by City
Attorney Blandford and would, ne
said. protect females from the cradle
to the grave" The only discussion
arose over where to set the age limit
for boys. Some Of the councilmen
thought six years good place. others
eight The general activity Of Young
America was commented on and finally
seven years was the age limit agreed
upon.
The ordinance was "daddied" by

The slump gathered momentum to-
day after an early effort to hold UP
the market by large purchases of Read
ing.
ST. Paul was weak to the point of a
panic all day. 1t lost ten yesterday and
will fall off more today.
Great Northern and Northern Paci-
fic are under fire. The Hill stocks
have been attacked for over a week
and today showed losses of 3S points
in Great Northern and 25 in Northern
Pacific compared to the closing one
week ago.
The exchange floor held a mob of
excited traders all day. Stocks were
tossed overheard without regard to
price and only the shorts covering
served to stay the decline.
Out of town traders lost hundreds
of thousands and are unable to meet
the calls for more margins.

council last night accepted the only
bid submitted for the construction of
a garbage incinerator, that Of the De-
carrie company for $4,000.
Most of the council were in favor of
accepting the bid at once and the
final motion was made by Councilman
Glasford after some discussion as to
the advisability of taking time to con-
slider the question.
Councilman Tausick thought it was
quite a big proposition which would
bear investigation by the street COM
mittee His motion to delay the pur-
chase was not seconded. Councilman
Mexican did not know what the street
committee could do more than they
had unless they took a junketing trip
