MAY CLOSE MILLS.
Chinese Boycott Hurts Tacoma Mill
ing Companies.


ing Companies.
The following special from Tacoma
to the Walla Walla Union, gives out
an alarming condition resulting from
the Chinese boycott:
Managers of the largest FIGURING
mills in Tacoma declare that the Chi
nese boycott against American goods
is daily growing stronger.
These managers. who have never
been pessimistic, say that unless con-
ditions in China change very soon,
several of the big Touring manufac-
tories on Puget Sound will be forced
to shut down, or at least to curtail
the output.
This is an unwelcome denial of the
rumor that the boycott was weaken
ing. The Tacoma Grain company's
plant, having a capacity of 1000 bar
rels a day, is idle, while the mill of
the Puget Sound FIGURING Mills COM
pany, with capacity of 1900 barrels,
is grinding to supply the local trade,
after having been shut down all of
last week.
The Tacoma Warehouse & Sperry
mills is running today, but not grind
ing to fill any Chinese orders. Where
the flour companies were formerly
receiving orders from China for 1OO,-
600 barrels of flour, they are now get
ting orders for 10, 900 sacks, and these
are coming infrequently.
1.-The boycott has paralyzed the
flour business in China" said John d.
Armstrong of the Tacoma Warehouse
& Sperry mills. According to our
advices the boycott is getting worse
instead of better"

Trainmen Say Wreck Was Caused by
OYerMOrk

OverwOrlS.
Word has been received by Denver
friends that Roy Darrell, conductor
OF the Union Pacific train wrecked at
Ah-Say, between Rawlins and Green
River, Wyo., two weeks ago, is still
violently insane with small hope IF
his recovery says the Denver Post
He was the only surviving member of
the regular train crew, the engineer,
fireman and head brakeman being
killed. The accident so preyed on his
mind that he became raving maniac.
In commenting on Conductor Dar-
rells unfortunate condition a Denver
trainman declared yesterday that If
congress does not take favorable ac-
tion on the bill now pending reduc-
ing the working hours of trainmen to
a limit of 16 hours, that radical ac-
ton will be taken by railway en-
ployes looking to a remedying of the
evil on their own account.
THE crew on that Union Pacific
train wrecked near Green River had
been on duty 36 hours" he said, 'and
human endurance had simply given
away. They had been ordered to take
a siding for trains 8, 2 and 10 to pass.
Unable to keep their eyes open they
dozed off and did not see the signal

section followed.
