Identification and all effects placed in

The effort to raise the cars has been
abandoned, and all energy bent to-
ward recovering bodies. When all
are removed the cars will be broken

Story of the Accident.

Atlantic City, y. j., Oct. 29.-
Three passenger cars on the electric
line plounged last night off the
'"Thoroughfare, the local name for
the causeway between Atlantic City
and the mainland. The cars were
carrying about 140 passengers. The
cars We're not at first completely sub
merged, as the tide was out. but in n
short time they were out of sight in
the almost bottomless mud of the
bayou, and in a few hours the tide
came in and they were completely
submerged. \ wrecking outfit was
hurried to the scene, but it could do
but little, as the causeway, which
was damaged by the wreck, refused
to support the weight of the outfit
and any load added to it by tackling
upon the cars.
The accident was due to rail
turning in" 1t appears that the rail
which was the outside one on the right
hand side must have been out of
plumb about an eighth of an inch.
The sharp flange of the electric car
caught this and twisted 1t, inward.
This twist threw the first car off the
track and into the water. The first
car dragged the second and third
cars after it. While the third car
was descending the rear portion
struck a piece of abutment and hung
there for a short time before sliding
into the water. This brief stop saved
several lives.
The accident was witnessed by
many people and the rescue work was
prompt. Strong swimmers endeav-
ored to dive into the submerged cars
but the tide was running too strong.
Professional divers were then secured
but they We're equally powerless.

This afternoon w. l.. Thompson,
cashier of the Commercial National
bank and guardian of the heirship

the above affidavit by A. L. Parker.
The East Oregonian cheerfully pub
fishes the reply of Mr.. Thompson,
since its only desire is to do exact JUS
tice to every one concerned in this In
terestfng controversy. Mr.. Thompson's
reply is as follows:
PendIeton, October 29.-(To the
Editor of the East Oregonian.) 1T
has not been my intention to make
answer to the attacks which have
been made upon me during the past
week through the columns of the To-
cal press. nor would the matter re-
ceive any attention from me at this
time except for the fact that through
your courtesy I have read the affi-
davit of A. L. Parker, made by him
for publication. The statements
therein are so misleading that I re-
gard. 1t as but justice to myself and
the public that the true details of
the Van Pelt land transaction, so far
as ! am concerned, be made.
In the first place, I desire to say
that Jennie Van Pelt is an educated
Indian woman, quite as capable OF
looking after her own affairs as the
average white woman, and that in the
litigation through which she acquired
the piece of land In controversy and
In the legal matters touching said
sale she was represented by the law
firm of HALEY & Lowell. Judge
HALEY will be In the city at the open.

In the first place the fair will show
the world, through it's exhibits, that
Alaska can produce other things be-
sides snow and gold; it will give the
general public better conception of
the resources, advantages and possi-
Duties of the territory, and Of it's
geological climate conditions. The
same is true of Yukon.
The fair will increase the commerce
OF: the Pacific by teaching the mer-
chants and manufacturers of the Or

people of their respective markets,
and how to secure and hold the busi-
ness. Oriental buyer and Occidental
seller, as we'll as Occidental buyer and
Oriental seller, will be brought closer

through exhibits collected with that
aim in view.
The exploitation of the Pacific
Northwestern. fact the entire west

other important result that will be
accomplished by the Alaskan Yukon
Pacific Exposition. The Lewis and
Clark fair and it's attendant publicity
placed this section prominently on the
map. The interest that exposition
created beyond the Rocky mountains
In this section will be stimulated and
increased during the next three years
With the foundation in exploitation
laid by Portland to build upon the at
tendance at the 1909 fair and the SUBJ

a large scale.
1t is estimated that the fair will
cost $10,000,O00. The amount the ex.
position company will spend and the
United States Government and the
State of Washington appropriations
will make a fourth of this amount,
and the sums the states, foreign ma
tons, exhibitors and concessionaires
will expend will aggregate the remain
ing three fourths.
The exposition site comprises 225
acres of the campus of the Washing
ton University. In it's virgin state it
presents everything to please the eye.
There are tall, stately giants of the
forest forming beautiful vistas, gem
tie, slopes commanding terraces ane
unsurpassed stretches of water front
The grounds border for more than 2
mile and a half on Lake Union and
Lake Washington. The Olympic and
cascade mountains are in plain sight
and an unobstructed view of the per-
petual peaks Of Mt. Rainer and Mt

purposes. Thus the Washington state
appropriation will be used for a per.
manent good aside from the benefits
