about to bridge the river at the latter
point. 1t is the expressed intention of
the railroad to continue the road on
from Parker to Ludlow, distance of
about lis miles, by completing line
which will shorten the distance be-
tween Los Angeles and the southern

julius Jacobs, assistant treasurer of
the United States, died at the Adler
sanatorium in this city early yesterday
morning, death coming unexpectedly
after what had been considered a sue
cessful operation last Friday
Jacobs was born in December, 1S4o.
He came to California in 1855 and for
some years was engaged in the retail
shoe business in Folsom and Sacra-
mento Then he came to this city and
engaged in the realty and insurance
business until 1898, when he was ap-
pointed by President Mckinley a as
sistant United States treasurer at the
expiration of the term of Samuel H.
Brooks, an appolntee of Cleveland.
Jacobs left two sons. Lester H. and
Alfred H. the former a lawyer and the
latter an architect, and a daughter, Mrs.
Hoffman.
Early yesterday morning Cashier
Thomas P. Burns wired the news to the
secretary of the treasury and asked for
instructions The subtreasury was kept
open all day in charge Of Burns, who
received checks and deposits, giving
temporary receipts for the same and
holding them in escrow, but no dis
bursements were made il being his
desire to keep the Office in the condition
in which it was when his superior Of
ficer died in order to avoid any confu-
sion OF accounts.
United States District Judge de Haven
and United States District Attorney
Robert T. Devlin at Burns request
looked up the law as TO Burns powers
as temporary successor They could not
find any authority under which he
could act as assistant treasurer, but he
could perform his duties as cashier as
usual. Until the appointment of sue
cessor by the president ad interim no
one could be authorized TO perform the
duties of the chief.
Burns has been in the Office for 20
years and has gained the confidence and
respect of the financial community. In
the absence of the assistant treasurer
he has always performed the duties of
that Office and there has not been a
scandal in the establishment since his
appointment. He is protected by the
civil service tenure of office His sal
ary as cashier is $4,000. while that of
assistant treasurer is $4,000.
When asked yesterday as to whether
he would accept promotion should it be
offered him Burns expressed strong
doubts, for the reason that he would be
deprived of his tenure under the civil
service system and the difference in SAL
ary would not compensate for that dis
advantage.

Suddenly, with terrible crash, the
slip gave way, precipitating hundred
or more men, women and children into
25 feet of water.
Captain Mathieson of the Multnomah
lost no time in getting the crew of 20
at the work of rescue and within five
minutes all who could be found Were
out of the water. The crews work
was impeded by frantic persons grab
bing and upsetting lifeboats. To add
to the confusion excited fathers, broth
ers and friends of those in the water
sprang from the dock to save loved
ones and the mass of humanity became
so great that the rescuers worked un-
der great difficulties.
Many acts of heroism were recorded.
One man clinging to the piles and sup
porting himself in the water saw a
little girl floating near. He seized the
childs dress and aided in putting her
in a boat which was almost Immediate
~ upset by fear crazed men seizing its
sides One woman when rescued tried
TO jump back into the sound, crying:
afI want my baby" She was assured
that the child was safe and permitted
herself TO be taken away. One year
old tot taken from the water uncon-
scious was kept at Stones Landing,
while the family came on to Tacoma,
not knowing wnere the little one was.
The little one died of exposure and in
