Sensational Performances Are
Recorded at Indoor Meet

Performances were recorded in the
indoor athletic meet at the Auditorium
rink lasttnight which would win cham
pionships on any field in the world.
Claiming Hall, the great high jumper
of the University of California, cleared
the bar at feet 1 inch at the first
attempt. He was able to raise this
but an eighth of an inch, but this gave
him the event by a safe margin, as
Mum. his nearest opponent, was able
to do but feet 7Z inches.
Ralph Rose, the giant weightputter,
gave Hall a close run for the honors of
the evening, as he hurled the sixteen
pound shot AZ feet ~ inches, a mark
seldom equaled under any form of COM
petition.

he had to give way to Allen Garcia, and

TOLSTO| OPPOSED
To THE CHURCH !.

PARIS, Jan. 5.-Count Tolstoi has
written a letter to Paul Sabatier apro-
pos to the latter's recent book on the
disestablishment of the church In
France in which the famous Russian
author predicts the possible reduction
of all the Christian countries of the
west to a state of yassalage similar
to the Japanese and Oriental peoples.
He bases his prediction upon the
ground that it is only in the Orient
that religion and patriotism are syn
onomous In his letter Count Tolstoi
displays his time vigor of style
and clearness of ideas. He says, in
part:

BOMB DROPPED IN
FRONT Of STORE

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-A bomb of
giant powder and shot was dropped
from an elevated railway station into
a crowd of people at the corner of Sec
ond avenue and Forty-second street to-
night. In the explosion that followed
three persons were injured seriously,
and of these two will probably die.
The outrage was seemingly directed
against the proprietor of fruit store
on the corner, and this man. Salvatore
Ciniluca, aged 80 years, was one of
the two fatally injured The other was
Mary Bailey, 40 years of age. who was
making a purchase In the, store. The
15-year-o son of Ciniluca was less
seriously injured. The bomb-throwers
escaped.
The bomb fell on the sidewalk, di-
rectly in front of the fruit store. Many
persons were passing at the time. and
a dozen were thrown to the ground.
The crowd fed in panic, leaving the
three seriously wounded senseless in
the midst of mashed fruit, broken
glass and splintered wood and bleeding
from many wounds. Windows in stores
near by were shattered.
Ciniluca was unable to talk later, but
from Italians living in the section it
was learned that the keeper of the fruit
store had been summoned by the Dis
trict Attorneys Office as an important
witness in a recent Mulberry Band"
murder. The case will be called for
trial next week.
The police secured several witnesses
who said that they saw the object,
which exploded as it fell from the up
town platform. From the condition of
some of the windows in the neighbor-
hood, which had been clearly punctur-
ed, but not shattered, it was concluded
that there were iron filings or nails in
the bomb as we'll as small shot and
high explosive. Five Italians were seen
in the vicinity prior to the explosion.

SEATTLE, Jan. Seattle was intro

game received a warm reception. There
was but small crowd in attendance
when Stanford and the University of
Victoria met on the university campus,
but ii made up in enthusiasm what it
lacked in numbers. and everybody was
satisfied except those who had charge
of the game, for they had to face a big
loss owing to the heavy expense of
bringing the teams here.
Stanford won by a score Of IL to o

fornians were heavier. faster and better
tacklers, although Victoria gave a bet
ter exhibition Of dribbling and scien-
tific play.
In the first half Scott of Stanford got
over for try, which Fentcn missed.
and in the second half Jimmy Stanford
scored another three points after a
pretty piece of work, and ten minutes
later Holman got over on a short sppS1 t

HOCH WOULD END
THE s. P. STRIKE
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

% A~AAH DASr AA~d III 4EE OALL-
TOPEKA, Jan. 5.-Governor Hoch In
letters written today to Z. H Harri-
man, president of the Union Pacific
Railway Company, and to ] ]. Hanna
han, grand master of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men, offers to become a mediator and
arbitrator between the officials Of the
Southern Pacific Railway and the en-
ginemen of the system to settle the
strike along the Atlantic lines. This
strike threatens to spread throughout
the Hartman lines. including the
Union Pacific, through the trainmen
being called out on a sympathetic
strike.
Governor Hoch realizes how disas-
trous a strike on the Union Pacific
would be to the people of Kansas. and
has offered his personal and Official
help to settle the Southern strike IN
order to prevent a tieup of the Kansas
lines.
The Governors action was taken on
his own initiative. He had not been
asked to interfere or offer his serv-
ices in the matter by any one. His
attenaion was called to the impending
strike by his private secretary. s. c.
drummer. The Governor then secured
all the information available regarding
the strike on the Southern Pacific
lines and what effect a sympathetic
strike would have upon Kansas.

RAILWAYS To OPEN
NEW COAL FIELDS

TACOMA, Wash, Jan. 5.-The Chi
cago, Milwaukee and ST. Paul Railway
and the Union Pacific Railway must
locate coal fields within this state and
develop producing mines before either
OF those systems can begin successful
operations in Washington. The coal
famine this winter has shown the off,
cials OF both lines that 1t is unwise to
depend upon private capital to deveIon
coal properties and that the Hill mines
cannot be depended upon for a fuel
supply. Prospecting shows that both
the st. Paul and the Hartman systems
tap rich coal helds- The Hartman line
either will pass through the Lewis
County coal fields or will build close
enough TO those deposits to enable the
system to build a branch line into coal
properties that can be developed in
Harriman's interest. Hartman survev-
ors are now working in the Cowlftz
Pass coal fields, high up the Cascades
where wide veins of solid coal. an
preaching anthracite in quality. have
been uncovered For years they have
been awaiting the transportation which
Hartman will soon supply. An early
exploitation is certain of this coal field
and also of the fhurston County coal
field lying between Tacoma and Olym-
pia- In this field Hartman has spent
100000 in acquiring coal properties.
The ST. Paul will pass through the
Rosiyn coal fields Eastern Washing
ton and through practically all the dis
trict on the west side that is exploited
by the Pacific Coast Company There
is an abundance of evidence showing
that the St Paul can readily open and
develop paying mines. The executive
officers of the road are giving the sub
ject their attention.

FORTY MEN BURIED
BY LANDSLIDE

BINGEN, Hesse, Jan. 5.-Forty work
men were buried yesterday evening in a
cut of new railway between Lam
scheid and Leiningen. The dead bodies
of thirteen of the men and fifteen in
jured workmen have been recovered.
An embankment had collapsed, bury
ing two men. To rescue them large
parties of other laborers employed
along the line were Immediately set
to work and wide pit was dug, in
which were about fifty men, when the
overhanging hillside fell, burying forty
of the laborers under masses of earth.
Those who were not buried began to
dig out their comrades while messen-
gers were sent to nearby villages ask
ing for help. Several physicians and a
large force of workmen were sent to
the scene of the disaster. The rescue
work. which was continued through
out the night, was dangerous owing to
the possibility of fresh masses of earth
falling on the laborers. Most of the
workmen killed were young men.
Among the injured are three children.
1t is probable that there are still fif-
teen bodies beneath the fallen earth.
