THEIR POSITION
WAS PERILOUS.
'arty Of Nevadans Boarded
French War Ship From a
Launch, During Storm.

Nevada Post,
While visiting the jamestown ex-
position last week a party oil Ne
vadans were in great danger OF los.
ing their lives by being drowned.
They were on a launch in Hamp-
ton Roads. When about a mile from
shore a severe storm came up sud
denly and tossed the waves over the
launch, drenching every one on board
Thefrail launch rocked like an acorn
shell, being powerless among the
angry waves.
The launch started for one OF the
small ships, but 1t was also rocking
30 badly that the sailors we're afraid
TO 90 to It.
A French war vessel observed the
peril Of the launch and its occupants
On nearing the French battleship, q
passenger OIL the steam launch threw
a rope to the sailors OF The war yes
sci and the little launch and It's pre-
cious load OF human freight wa,
saved.
The passengers OF the launch wer'
kept aboard the French vessel for
or 4 hours, on account OF the storm
during which time they we're royal!
treated.
No doubt but what all on board
the launch would have been cspsizet
but for the fact that they we're pull
ed aboard the French vessel.
The Nevadans aboard the launcl
were Gen j. D. Ingram and daugh
ter Miss Louise, Col. j. R Walton
and Mrs. Sue NJ. Bunce and daugh
ter Miss Sue Bunce. Other passen

Seventy-Five Into the Sea.

Nome, Alaska, June II The
steamship Ohio, owned by the White
Star Steamship company, struck Ice
at Port Safety. A huge hole was
broken in the ships bow and the
vessel began to fill rapidly. A panic
ensued among the passengers. Be-
fore the lifebosts could be lowered
more than seventy-five persons had
jumped into the water. Two white
men and Chinaman were drowned.
But for the efforts Of the ships Of
f1cers In closing the bulkheads of two
compartments, disastrous loss OF
life would have resulted. When Or
der had been restored among the
passengers the Ohio backed off the
ice and returned to Nome badly
damaged.

WALLA WALLA
HARVEST PASSENGER
TRAIN BEGINS AUGUST l.
Daily Round Trip, Leaving Walla
Walla at $3.50 IA. m. and Leaving
Pendleton at 4:5O p. m.-Deemed
Likely That O'Brien's Offer of a
Clean Extra Car Daily for No.
viii BE Accepted.

The regular o. R. & n. passenger
train which is run between this city
and Walla Walla every year during
harvest season, will be placed in SER
vice on August /, to continue until
about JANUARY l, it is thought.
Agent F. ]. Quinlan of the o. r. &
y. offices in this city, received in
formation Saturday evening that the
train had been ordered placed in serv-
ice.
The schedule of the train will be as
follows: Leave Walla Walla at $50
a. m; arrive at Pendleton at 1890.
Returning in the evening, leave PEN
dleton 4:5O o'clock, Immediately after
the departure of No. 2, and will ar
rive at Walla Walla at $50 p. m.
Owing to the enormous business
handled by the mixed train during
wheat harvest, the delays are annoy
ing to passengers and the o. r. & n.
has run this extra passenger train
for the past two years for the ac-
commodation of the patrons of the
mixed train. The service will be
greatly appreciated and it is hoped
that the train will be kept in service
constantly hereafter.
1t is thought that the railroad COM
mission will accept the offer of Gen.
eral Manager J. p. O'Brien to place
a clean coach on No. at this place
for the accommodation of local travel
westward from this city and If such is
done, It will induce many Walla
Walla and residents of southeastern
Washington to come to this city to
start to Portland rather than go down
by way of the Spokane train. The
passenger train to be run between
Walla Walla and this city will make
1t easy for Walla walla people to
come this way to take a main line
train.

LAB0RERs ARE
BADLY NEEDED
UMATILLA CENTRAL is
ALMOST AT STANDSTILL
Company Faithfully Starts Gangs OF
Laborcrs From Portland TO Work
on the Branch-Usually Few
Reach Here, But In Some Instances
None Do-Labor Problem Concerns
Brandon Most.

How to induce men TO work is the
problem that now confronts Engineer
II, A. Brandon, in charge of the con-
struction of the Umatilla Central, and
the task is proving a harder one than
any question Of curve or grade with
which he ever struggled.
y week or more ago preparations
were made by the railroad company
to commence tracklaying on its Pilot
Rock branch. A good, new camp was
established near the bridge at the
mouth OF Birch creek and accommo-
dations were provided for a gang Of
10 men. A man and his wife were
placed in charge of the mess tent and
fresh meat and vegetables have been
upon the daily menu. But in spite OF
all the inducements offered the entire
crew now consists of but eight people.
including the cooks, foremen, etc.
almost every day from Is to 20
men have been shipped us from Port
land, but we have seen none of them"
said Mr.. Brandon mournfully this
morning. "In order to save the men
the necessity of walking back to the
camp from Pendleton an order was
issued for No. to stop at the spur
IN nj nff nt H.
camp. But in spite of all this we have
gotten only two men out of the entire
number shipped us. The rest OF
them go into the country to work, or
else have dropped by the wayside be-
fore reaching here. Several days ago
special car, containing workmen,
was brought out of Portland, but by
the time The Dalles was reached the
car was empty and 1t was necessary
to drop the car"
Just how he is going to finish the
construction OF the Umatilla Central
without men has not been worked out
by Mr.. Brandon. AS the farmers of
the Pilot Rock country are now en-
gagged in threshing 70 cent wheat. they
cannot well be pressed into service,
and unless the situation improves the
road may not be finished In time to
haul this years wheat crop. Mean
while the railroad company offers
$3.50 per day for laborers, and jobs
are open for those who desire to en-
gage in railroad construction.

1t is possible that the party of Ha-

Oregon, California and Washington
by Mr.. Edyth Tozier Weatherred
next fall may visit La Grande to in
spect the beet factory and surround
ing country. The Commercial club
is now considering the matter OF
raising SO each to apply to railroad
fare from Portland to La Grande.
If the party goes to La Grande ar
rangements will also be made to havo
them stop off in Pendleton on the
way over.

Seoul. Korea, July 2s.-Backed by
roaring mob many thousan de
strong, the mutlnous Korean troops
in Seoul are trying tonight to exter-
inmate the Japanese In Seoul.
The uprising occurred so suddenly
that the mikado's forces in tue Ko-
roan capital were taken absolutely by
surprise. The attack was made first
against the police. whom they fairly
swept before them.
The Korean soldiers started the RI
oting. The soldiers were formidable
from their organization and arms.
which the Japanese hnve not felt
strong enough to take from them.
Seven OF the finest Japanese resi-
dences in Seoul were sacked and
destroyed with scarcely an effort at
resistance by the mikado's forces.
Many japanese have been injured.
and among the Koreans the loss in
killed and wounded must have been
heavy, though, with the fight still in
progress and the entire city in a tur-
moil. an accurate estimate OF num-
bers is impossible.
The outbreak is, of course. the d.
rect result OF Japanese domination
OF the country. general dfssatisfac-
tion with the new treaty and the
deposition OF the former emperor.
The Korean cabinet members are
again the objects OF the bitterest exc
Grafton.
They have taken refuge in the pal
ace, where the japanese minister
will doubtless be able to protect them
from violence.
