AUTOMOBILE TURNS OVER

Party of Four In Car Narrowly Escape
Death Near Oakland When Ma

Sidewalk
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
OAKLAND, Cal, Aug. 10.-An automo-
bile occupied by George Lindsay of san
Francisco a friend and two women, Dor
ris Coddington and Eva LeVange, was
wrecked early this morning in Fruitvale,
while returning from Morgan's park,
where the party had spent the evening.
The accident was the result of reckless
speeding. In turning from the scenic
boulevard into East Fourteenth street the
chauffeur bumped into the sidewalk and
capsized the machine. The latter was
going at such a high rate of speed that
the momentum caused it to turn double
somersault; yet no one was killed
Eva LeVange, the chauffeur and Lind
seys companion escaped unhurt. Lindsey
and Doris Coddington were badly in
jured about the head. Lindsey was taken
to a sanitarium in Alameda and Doris
Coddington was brought to her quarters
in this city. 1t is represented that Lind
sey will be able to leave the sanitarium
in a. few days, but Miss Coddington is
living in a critical condition.

ASK INCREASE IN PAY
FOR ALL SWITCHMEN
BROTHERHOOD OF TRAINM EN-
TAKES HAND IN COLORADO
Grand Master Morrissey May Call Out
His Entire Force If Railroads
Refuse to Raise
Wages
BY Associated Press.


DENVER, Aug. 10.-The grievance
committee representing the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen employed on the
Denver g. Rio Grande will hold a con-
ference next Monday with General Su-
perintendent A. o. Welby, Assistant
General Manager w. S. Martin and prob
ably President c. H. Schlaaks, for the
purpose, as understood, of formally de-
manding an advance of 20 cents day
for all switchmen in the system.
This demand, which has caused the
strike of the switchmen and trainmen
on the Colorado & Southern has resulted
in an enormous amount of inconvenience
and financial loss all over the state. If
the demand be refused by the officials
of the Denver & Rio Grande, Grand
Master P. H. Morrissey, of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen will In all
probability call a strike among the mem
bers of his organization on that road.
Before the Rio Grande management
makes answer to the trainmen, a con-
ference of officials of the Union Pa
cific, the Burlington Santa Fe, the Dem
yer & Rio Grande and the Colorado &
Southern will be held. 1t is almost GER
tain that at this conference the man
ayers will make final decision as to their
attitude toward the advance asked and
the answer of the Rio Grande will be
practically the answer of all. The idea
of government intervention has been def
initely abandoned.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10-Twenty- of the
original 100 young Filipino students sent
to the United States by their native gov
ernment four years ago to be educated in
American colleges left Chicago last night
for the Philippines with diplomas in their
pockets, preparing to tackle the intrica-
cies of government. Twenty-three of
the boys started back home a few days
ago and the remaining forty-seven de-
cided to remain in America.
The students appeared happy, but
prouder than any of them was Maj.
States army, retired and assistant super
intendent of the insular bureau in charge
of all the Filipino students in this part
of the country.
"I am proud to say that every one Of
them carried off some kind of honor or
prize in the college he attended" said
Mai. Vattmann. There was only one
trouble with them-they studied too hard
and we had some difficulty in preventing
them from OVERRIDING. Their uppermost
thoughts were of the day when they would
have a hand in conducting affairs of the
government. They are quieter than
American college students. and absence
of cigarettes is noticeable in the Filipinos

CHICAGO, Aug. ia dispatch from
New York says that E. H. Hartman
yesterday gave his views regarding the
state of trade. He said:
II hear lots of talk of a recession in
business, but l see no signs of the re-
cession. My advices from the west south
west and northwest are that business is
still at a top notch. So far as one can
judge at present it looks as though we
were going to do a big falls work"
Asked what he thought about the pros
poets for a return of confidence, Mr..
Hartman replied with a smile:
THAT is beyond me. Investors and the
public generally, like individuals, have
their moods and changes. Meanwhile, we
are going ahead and keeping our prop
critics in first-class shape. They are
growing more valuable every day and
doubt not that everything will turn out
all right, for values must tell in the
end"
Mr.. Hartman is soon to make his an
nual tour over the Hartman lines. He
will be gone two or three weeks.
NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-The violent
break in the stock market this week is
most usually attributed in the financial
district to the hue and cry against cor
porations from many quarters. A vul-
nerabe speculative position, was uncov-
cred and raidipg tactics by professional
bears were actively employed.
The growing contraction of money re-
sources was prime element in the up
set.
The interior has begun to draw cur
rency away from New York, and large
syndicate requirements had to be met for
e,,he
recession in the iron and steel trade and
the decline in price of copper kept at
tention awake to the probability of trade
reaction. The stock market slump put

WOMAN'S ASSAHANT
HELD FOR MURDERS
TRIES TO KILL HOUSEkEEPER,
SHE INFORMS ON HIM
Prisoner Is Accused of One Crime in
Italy and Another Commit
ted In New York
State
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 1o.-An attempt to
murder woman with a knife in her
residence at 317 Aberdeen street last
evening and the arrest of her alleged
assailant may result in clearing two
murder mysteries that have remained
unsolved for many years.
From the statements of Mrs. Murray,
35 years of age who was found almost
unconscious on the sidewalk in front or
her house, it is thought possible that
prisoner held at the Maxwell street
station may be charged with the death
of a woman in Italy and that of man
in New York.
For five years Mrs. Murray has cared
for the living rooms of her fellow ten
ant James de Lara, who owns grocery
in another part of the building. Yes
terday De Lara complained that she
was not doing her work properly. An
argument followed and De Lara, 1t Is
charged, attacked her with large
knife. The woman was cut several
times before she fled from the house.
She tainted on reaching the street and
was found suffering from loss of blood
by Policeman O'Connell.
After receiving the attention of a
physician Mrs. Murray made a state
ment to Lieutenant Thomas Coughlin
concerning her assailant. DE Lara Is
not his right name" Mrs. Murray told
the police. He Is known in Italy as
Carlos Masteleno, and he Is wanted ir
Italy for the murder of a woman. Ht
escaped from Italy and came to New
York under the name of Charles d.
Lara. There he murdered a man
Canal and Front streets and came tt
Chicago. While in New York he
owned the Hotel Calabro and catered
to immigrant Italians"
To support her statements Mrs. Muir
ray said that De Lara, as he is known,
had several scars on his body received
in the fight with the man he had MUIR
dered in New York. On examination
the police said they found the scars,
but De Lara explained their presence
by saying they were relics of a fight he
had when he was boy. Denial of
both accusations was made by De Lara,
but he could not tell where he was at
the time of the alleged murders.

THREE ARE WOUNDED
IN REVOLVER DUEL
Italians Who Long Ago Vowed Ven-

By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1O.-A pistol
duel on the street this evening resulted
in the fatal wounding of one of the prin-
cipals, the serious shooting Of the other
and the wounding of a woman.
Leopold Bertuccelli and Guiseppi Pas
saglia, Italians, were partners in a mac
caroni business over a year ago, but
quarreled and separated, vowing ven
geance on one another. Today as Pas
saglia was entering a grocery store Ber
tuccelli came behind him, cursed him and
fired a bullet at his former partner.
The bullet struck Mrs. Mary Mullins, a
bystander, in the elbow. A moment later
both men were firing at one another.
Passaglia fell with a bullet in his brain
and he will die. His last shot hit Ber-
tuccelli in the stomach and the latter is
now at hospital in serious condition.
