LANDSLIDE BLOCKS TRAFFIC
Railroad Tracks East of WaIIuIa Are
and Gravel, Delaying Trains.

A slide on the Snake River Valley
road, several miles east Of Wallula,
early this morning, held the Spokane
flyer nearly seven hours and delayed
the arrival of the Wallula-Walla Wall
la train with Portland and Spokane
mail until nearly noon today.
Heavy rains yesterday and last
night loosened a veritable avalanche
of dirt and gravel on the steep bluffs,
which swooped down on the track and
effectually blocked traffic, until a Sec
ton crew could clear the track.
Both the Portland and Spokane
trains were stalled while the track
was being cleared. Trainmen arriving
in the city on the delayed train say
last nights rain along the Snake and
Columbia assumed the aspect of a
cloudburst at times. It is estimated
that nearly two inches of rain fell
in that section during II hours yes
terday and last night.
Trackwalkers are keeping a close
watch of the bluffs for possible land
slides.

FAIRLY DAZEs EAGER soLONS
WITH TALES.

The advantages Of establishing a
garbage incinerator for the burning
of all filth, trash and garbage collect
ed in the streets of Walla Walla was
presented to the city council last
night by a representative of the De-
carrie Manufacturing company of Min
neapolis, MINI.
II was claimed that a furnace with
90 tons capacity could be established
here which would consume all the
garbage. slops, dead animals, street
cleaning and every other sort OF
trash for the sum of $4,000. Also, tnat
this could be burned up for less tnan
so cents a ton without the least parti-
Gle of an odor escaping.
In Spokane the incinerator was d1-
rectly across the street from a nos
pital and in other places right in the
center of the business districts.
Good On Faper.
According to the model plan which
was explained to the city fathers the
dump carts with the garbage went up
an inclined plane and dropped their
load directly into the red hot furnace.
BY a special contrivance the liquid
was evaporated and then the remain
der acted as a fuel. The shape of the
inside of the furnace precents the

GRABS BOY ON MAIN STREET

A yelling child, a frantic mother, a
hotel clerk and a police officer was
what Henry Bremmer had on his
hands a moment after he attempted
to kidnap his three-year- son from
it's mother as she was coming out OF
the state hotel at S:45 this morning.
Bremmer had procured a livery rig
which he left standing at the curb as
Mrs Bremmer came out of the hotel
leading the little boy by the hand. AS
the father made a grab for the boy he
screamed and Arthur Legg, night
clerk at the hotel, caught hold Of
Bremmer and held him until an off,
Ger arrived. The mother took the
child and continued on her way to
the Office Of her attorney.
The disturbance attracted a large
crowd of the curious. Bremmer was
taken to the court house on the charge
of disturbing the peace.
To Save Child.
According to the testimony of the
hotel clerk, Bremmer lodged in the
hotel last night, under an assumed
name, in the room directly across the
hall from Mrs. Bremmer. He denies
this and asserts he stayed at lOdg-
ing house across the street.
The Bremmers are the same people
who are fighting in court over the
possession of their child. Judge
Brents yesterday postponed the ha-
beas corpus hearing until November

get testimony to disprove the charges
of adultery lodged by her husband.
Bremmer is terribly wrought up over
the affair He said this morning he
feared that in spite of the order of
the court his wife was about to get
away with the child. He intended to
take it to some friends of his on Lin
coin street to keep it until the court
should have awarded the custody to
one or the other of the parents.
