HELD As IN 1 WISE
TWENTY-FIVE HOURS
BY SHIFTING SAND
New York Plumber in Pitiable
Condition From Exhaustion
When Released.

NEW YORK, June 2s.-After fight
ing against death for more than
twentv-two hours, jeremiah Fisher, a
number. was rescued alive today from
sandpit at Tompkinsville, Staten
Island, in which he had been impris-
oned since Yesterday forenoon. Fisher
is in a pitiable condition from ex-
haustion and may not survive.
> Fisher was working in an exeava-
ton when a passing street car
loosened the ground and sent down
An avalanche of sand upon him. The
sand sifted in around his legs, hold
ing him as in a wise and gradually
rising until only his head was visible.
For hours large force of rescuers
worked with frantic haste in an ef-
fort to save the imprisoned man, but
the shifting sand surged back and re-
newed it's grip upon the prisoner al
most as fast as they could remove It,
When the rescuers began to aban-
don hope of getting Fisher out alive,
they reluctantly decided to notify his
family of his predicament, and the
wife. mother and brother were wit
nesses of the all-night fight for life
that followed. Hundreds of persons
f1ocked to the scene and many of them
remained throughout the night Two
clergymen who had been summoned
awaited the cali TO dUHinlster tne idSl
rites should the task of the rescuers
prove unavailing.
When daylight came the rescuers
had succeeded in uncovering the i'm
prisoned mans body as far down as
his hips. Then ropes were attached
under Fishers arms, but the combined
strength of twenty men failed to move
the Imprisoned man even an inch.
Fisher then was unconscious and
the physicians who had been watching
his condition declared that there re-
mained only the faintest hope of his
surviving much longer. The rescuers
stuck to their task, however, and hours
later, when the last obstacle was re-
moved and the senseless form of
Fisher was drawn from the sitting
hole, spark OF life still fingered.

FIGURES IN DIVORCE SUIT.
Evelyn NesbIt Thnw Mentioned In
Mrs. George Lederer's Complaint.

Evelyn Nesbit Thuw Mentioned In
Mrs. George Lederer's Complaint.
NEW YORK. June 2s.-In discussing
the mart that Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
PLAYED in the roof garden tragedy the
fact that this is not the first time the
former chorus girl came into unpleas-
ant notoriety is often commented upon.
In the divorce suit brought by the
second Mrs George w. Lederer, for
merly Adele Rice, which is still in the
courts, Evelyn Nesbit was mentioned
in the complaint which was drawn by
the plaintiff At that time Miss Nesbit
was frequently in the company of the
theatrical manager who had given her
a part with lines" in THE Wild
Rose
1t has been said that Lederer met the
girl through the interest taken in her
by Stanford White, but this is said to
be incorrect Those who recall the cir
cumstances say that both Mrs. Nesbit
and her daughter were well acquainted
with Lederer and that he had intro
duced the girl, then Is years old. to
the architect, who from the first
evinced more than a passing interest
in her.
In spite of her small foot and her
natural advantages. Evelyn Nesbit was
by no means a graceful dancer. On
but il was a graceful awkwardness, If
the paradox be possible, and earned her
more compliments than she would have
been paid had her skill been greater.
Her voice was scarcely one that,
alone, would have earned her the re-
spectful attention of stage manager.

vantage of courses in vocal culture.

more modulated than formerly, but 1t
stin retains a bit OF that high nasal
touch seemingly peculiar to the stage
chorus.
1t was at the time that her popu-
larity was at its height that she first
met Harry Thaw. 1t is entirely incor-
rect that she confined herself to the
attentions of White and Thaw success
sively. After she had known the archi-
tect for some time and after Thaw's
name had been linked with hers, John
Barrymore was seen so much in her
company that several reports that the
two were TO be married gained cur
rency. 1t was after this episode that
she made the trip TO Europe under hel
mothers chaperonage, when she me,

Intimate friends OF the girl declare
that she was much surprised when she
were serious and that he offered mar
riage. She was not at first inclined tc
believe this until. after the passage OF
time, his attentions continued, when al
doubt OF his sincerity passed.
After the marriage there was M

HOUSE STANDS
BY CONFEREES
Indorses Their Attitude
on Meat Inspection
Amendment.
Advocates of Making
the Packers Pay
Are Defeated.

WASHINGTON. June 2s.-Congress-
man Wadsworth called up the partial
conference report on the agricultural
appropriation bill In the House today.
and 1T was agreed to without discus
sion.
Wadsworth then moved that the
House insist on its disagreement TO the
meat inspection amendment. This was
adopted on a division, 175 to 49,
Then Wadsworth sprang a surprise
by sending to the desk a resolution that
1t is the sense of the House that the
conferees do not recede from it's amend
ment known as the meat inspection
amendment, and the House was face to
face with a contest with the Senate.
Wadsworth, after referring to the
disagreement about the date going on
the cans, and insisting that it was not
necessary, passed TO the legal ques-
tions involved. His platform was: The
passage of the bill is necessary for the
protection of foreign commerce and for
the benefit of the public health.
A vigorous protest against placing
any charge on the packers was made
by Burleson (Texas). The packer, he
said, would Immediately SHIFT the bur-
den on the cattle grower.

The advocates of making the packers

FERTILE LANDS
UNDER WATER
Waters of Colorado River
Spread Over Many
Fine Farms.
Families in Palo Verde
District Are Forced
to Flight.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

Los ANGELES, June 2S.-Flood con-
ditions on the Lower Colorado River
are just now the worst they have been
during the present season. The sec
tion of the country most seriously af-
fected, aside from the Salton Sea re-
gion, is the Palo Verde settlement in
the southwestern corner of Riverside
County. Here a strip of fertile val
ley land six or seven miles wide and
twenty-five miles long, upon which
seventy-five families have homes, is
almost entirely Inundated.
Residents of the little town who ar
rived in Los Angeles today state that
stroyed. Most of the families have
been compelled to move to higher
ground and abandon their homes. Many
ranches, in a high state of cultivation,
are swept by the waters of the river
and IT will be many months before
the owners will be able to cultivate
them again. The river in many places
is six to seven miles wide. The flood
is caused by melting snow in the up
per watershed.
Those returning from Palo Verde
passed by the Salton Sea and they
say that the water in the basin is ris-
ing at the rate of two and a half
inches a day. The Southern Pacific
tracks, which have been moved to
higher ground several times to escape
the rising tide, are now less than 200
feet distant from the edge of the water
and in several places the flood crosses
under the tracks. A great flood is
pouring into the Salton sink from the
Colorado River through the former
canal intakes, which are now con-
yerted into wide channels. From the
train as il skirts the upper edge of
the Salton Sea it is impossible to see
the farther shore. 1t is estimated
the Salton Sea is now about forty miles
long to twenty miles wide. 1t has the
appearance of an ocean, in that its
surface is covered by white caps and
with a strong wind blowing has a
heavy surf.
There is no present prospect OF the
inflow being stopped, and how high
the sea will rise is still a matter of
conjecture. IT is practically certain
that the Southern Pacific will again
have to move many miles of it's track
The Imperial valley residents deny that
any danger to their section of the
country exists, although observers dis
pute this.

SAYS She PROVED LOSS
BUT is REFUSED Coin
Mrs. Welch to Sue North German,
Which Stands on Earth
quake Clause.

Although Mrs. Hannah Welch claims
to have presented evidence to prove that
her home, which was located on Joice
street and was burned in the great fire,
was not injured in any way by the
earthquake, the North German Fire In
surance Company of Hamburg has re-
fused her claim for $500 insurance on.
her home and furniture, and her friends
have rallied to her support and en-
gagged John w. Bourdette as attorney
to fght out her case in the courts.
The only excuse offered by the insur-
1t has IAN earthquake clause in the
policy and is evidently planning it's
defense on that ground alone.
The case of Mrs. Welch is pathetic
and is areusing sympathy among
those who are acquainted with the
circumstances. The fire left her with
no money, and she has no means of
supporting herself and three small
children, the Oldest of whom 10 IL.
1t is the belief of Bourdette that the
company will be required to pay the
claim, and he declares that there are
but few cases where the insurance
companies can get out of paying their
insurance policies on account of an
earthquake clause" He brands their
general attitude in this matter as
bluff, which they cannot support. He
said:
The legality of the earthquake clause
may be decided by the courts, but after
that Is done. no test case can decide
the legality of claims In general for
each case must depend upon individual
conditions, which can have but little
bearing on others.
1t will be a hard matter for any COM
pany to prove that house was de-
stroyed by the earthquake. Because a
house is missing after fire. 1t isn't to
be presumed that the destruction was
due to an earthquake. 1t is simply a
bluff on the part of the insurance COM
panies, and they will have ts come TO
terms in the end and pay the claims
against them.
The case OF Mrs. Welch is one that
will appeal TO the public. for not even
her chimney was injured by the shock,

cepting public charity OF the $500
erty, $1,000 was on the house and the
remainder on her furniture. | would
like to know how they are going to
prove that either was destroyed by the
earthquake.
