In Favor of New

gresham George A. Bartlett to-
day. I'm fact, | have been in

ton Of my time and effort. +"
Bartlett says that he believes
stronger than ever on his anti
assessment work bill for 1907
and that the bill will be intro
duced as soon as congress con-
venes. While there have been
protests against the BILL" said
Mr.. Bartlett, yet the protests
do not nearly balance the sup
porters of the bill. | believe
that it is right and just, and
therefore, will introduce the
measure.
Il am in favor of more money.
More gold money, more silver
money, more paper money. The
more money we have the better,

can be too much. f"
In regard to a navy Mr.. Bart
lett is unqualified in his adj

them," he continued. I'VE need
a navy situated as we are be-
tween two great oceans and the
greater number of the dogs of

we have of peace. | believe in
spending money to maintain
peace and can do it in no better
way than to have a big navy"
Bartlett will be seen at the

that he is in accord with the adj

Their special train, running so miles

the train, smashing the coaches into

and injuring more than score of 9TH

The wreck occurred exactly at

minutes after the conclave visitors,
forming a merry party, had spent all

train was making terrific speed
when it struck the defective track is
borne out by the fact that it covered
the 81 miles of curves and crooked
track between here and Honda in eX-
actly 100 minutes.
There was no warning of the i'm

upon the defective switch, and in an

together in huge heap of wreckage.

The dining car, in which were 80
persons eating their MONDAY meal,
leaped into the air and was thrown
directly on top of the demolished
locomotive. Nearly every person in
this coach was instantly killed.
Scores were scalded by steam escap-

kitchen of the diner.
The terror and turmoil of the scene
was indescribable. Many of those who
escaped instant death by the first im-

hurled upon the wreckage. Others,
pinioned in the debris, were roasted
alive. The wreckage caught fire from
the Goals of the engine, but was ex-

WHEAT REACHES 81 MARK
HEAVY BUYING ORDERS SENDS
UP PRICE OF CEREAL.
Cause of Wild Day on Chicago Board
of Trade-Crop Shortage
Given as Reason.

Chicago, May 14.-Wheat hit the
dollar-mark Monday with apparently
the board of trade "brain-storm."
The even figure was reached by both
September and December lines, with
the trade spreading wider and wider.
Foreign buying orders swelled the de-
mand.
September opened at 95c. to 99c.
Soon it sold at 81, and while the bulls
were throwing up their headgear the
price toppled to 99c. and CSC. A re-
turn in the pits before the closing
was predicted also that the next time
it would keep it's balance.
July wheat opened at SO to csc.
Next it sold at &C. and &C. Saturday
it closed at 91Ac., while September
halted at $3.50.
The arrival at the dollar mark was
the climax of the bull stampede. A
week ago dollar wheat was spoken of
in the same vague way in which refer
ence was made to real spring weather.
The opening trade in wheat was the
widest in the history of the board
of trade. Brokers who have been
on change for 20 or 80 years say they
never have witnessed anything equal
to the excitement of the first Is min
utes of trading. There is no way of
estimating the volume of business
transacted within that period.
Leading houses traded millions
and millions of bushels Orders to
buy at the market were filled without
regard to price. Opening sales ranged
from SO to 81 cents for July, 95 cents
to $1.00k for September, and 96k
cents to $1.03 for December delivery.
These figures tell the story of the
market
There was no leadership to the
trade. The operations of big specula-
tors were lost sight of in the turmoil
occasioned by the tremendous influx
of outside buying. Seldom if ever
has the public been known to enter
the market in such a reckless man
ner.
To what extent this speculative
craze will be carried no one can tell
The public has become thoroughly in
oculated with the fever of wheat spec
ulation, board of trade men say.
New York, May 14.-'Dollar wheat"
on the Chicago board of trade Monday
was reflected in violent advance on
the produce. exchange here, where
trading assumed tremendous proper
tons, attended with much excitement
The entrance of the public in the local
grain market was feature of the
days trading. July wheat opened at
$1,000 to 1882, an advance of four
cents over Saturdays close, while Sep
TENDER wheat opened at $101 and
$1.O35s, an advance of four cents over
the close of Saturday. December
jumped from $1.04 to $1.05A at the
opening, having closed Saturday at
$1.01A.

STRIKERS LET CARS ALONE.
Partial Service Is Given San Fran
cisco on Sunday.

San Francisco, May 13.-Fifty street
cars were operated Sunday from ten
o'clock in the morning until five
o'clock in the evening over two of the
20 odd lines composing the United
Railroads system. For the first time
since the commencement of the strike
last Sunday cars were run to the fer
ries. About 10000 passengers, ma
jority of them women, patronized the
service.
There was very little disorder dur
ing the day. Thousands of persons
evidently regarded the published in
functions and private warnings and
remained indoors, for the Sunday
crowds were much smaller than usual.
Five hundred police guarded the
streets through which the so cars
were run, but they had little to do.

Germs in Books.

The authorities of the city libraries
in Berlin have been making some in
teresting experiments with the pur-
pose of determining the hygienic con-
ditions of books that have been used a
great deal by the people. With the
dirt gathered from such books, some
of which was known to include tuber-
culosis bacilli, experiments were made
on guinea pigs. In the case of books
used but two years, no result could be
noticed, but the refuse collected from
particularly soiled books, that had
been in circulation from three to six
years, did produce an effect. Attempts
to destroy the bacilli by sterilization
through formalin vapors failed; br.
the books themselves suffered to such
an extent that many were practically
spoiled. In view of this fact, the city
authorities have decided to abstain
from further disinfecting experiments
In conjunction with the city medical
society and the police department, it
has now been decided periodically to
examine the public libraries and to de-
stroy those books which have been
used so much as to make them a dan
ger to public health. Such books
must be destroyed, not sold for old
paper.
