CITY SERVES As
AN EXAMPLE
WALLA WALLA COUNCILMEN 4
INSPECT CINDER ROADBED
Contemplating Changing from Planks
to Cinders, They Visit Pendleton to
Examine Conditions Here-Alder-
men Also Visit City Hall and Jail
and Express Approval.

That still another city is able to
take lessons from Pendleton was in
dicated this morning when five mem
bers Of the council of the city of Wal
la Walla and the city clerk arrived
in Pendleton to examine the Northern
Pacific track along Webb street
where the planking had been replac-
ed by cinders. 1t seems that the road
bed of the Walla Walla Valley Trac-
tion company in the city of Walla
Walla is covered with planking, the
same as the Northern Pacific track
here was formerly, and that the COM
pany is desirous of taking up the
planks and putting down cinders, al
leging that the change would be
more satisfactory to the city and
company alike.
1t was for that reason therefore
that G. D. o'Connor, the Walla Walla
manager of the Northwestern Gas &
Electric company and manager of the
Walla Walla Valley friction company,
piloted the Garden citys aldermen to
this city so they could make per-
sonal investigation of conditions here.
Those in the party were Councilmen
C. H. Whiteman, Fritz Lend, A. Neb-
ergall, C. H. Cummings, Fred Bach
told and City Clerk T. d. S. Hart.
The party was also accompanied by
w. F. Baker, roadmaster for the Wal
la Walla Valley Traction company.
Following the inspection of the
railroad track the men from the
Garden city visited different parts Of
the city and called at the new city
hall. They were shown through this
structure and were taken down into
the Jail, which, as usual, was open
and empty. The visitors were in
formed that Pendleton had little use
for a city jail The bastile was oc-
cupied for few minutes. however,
when two members of the party pro-
ceeded to bar the remainder of them
in.
The most of the visiting commit
tee seemed to favor the plan of Gin
ders in place of the boards between
the rails aid 1t is probable that the
change will be made in that city.

points to any point in oregon.

points to any point in oregon.
The rates are to be in effect for 80
days and it is expected that even
last springs phenomenal record will
be smashed. The railroad companies
have prepared to handle the largest
amount of travel in the history of
western railroading and from the am
cunt of interest that has been mani
tested it is believed that the equip
ment will be entirely inadequate to
handle the rush. Every available
coach and every locomotive has been
made ready for action. Many cars
that had been relegated to the scrap
heap have been brought out, painted
up and pressed into service while ad-
ditional motive power has been Sc
cured from roads which are not being
called upon to handle such an en-
ormous traffic as are those in the far
west.
That Pendleton and Umatilla county
will profit by the special rate is gen.
orally conceded. The western end of
the county is thought to be especially
fortunate as three big private land
companies have had agents through
out the eastern state for several days
and two car loads of prospective set
tiers are now enroute direct to Her
miston. One is from Iowa and one
from Pennsylvania.
The rate from Missouri river points
to Pendleton is $25. from Chicago is
$3S. from Columbus, O., $39.05; from
Knoxville, Tenn. s43.O5; Memphis,
SS445; Montreal, Canada, $47.7o;
New York, $50; Washington, D. c.,
$4S.25; and st. Louis, $4,000.

SCORE KILLED BY DYNAMITE
Terrific Explosion in Stone Quarry
Near Albany, N. Y.


Albany, n Y, May 13.-At least
twenty men were killed by a prema-
ture blast Of dynamite in stone
rb a1fy~operated blythe Callahan Road
Improvement company near South
Bethlehem, eleven miles southwest
of Albany.
One thousand pounds of dynamite
exploded, and the bodies of the vic
TINS were hurled hundreds of feet by
the conclusion and so badly mutilat-
ed as to be almost beyond recogni-
ton.
The Callahan Road Improvement
company furnishes crushed stone for
road building. The preparations for
the blast had been going on for six
weeks. Thirteen holes, seventy-f1ve
feet deep, had been drilled at points
about twenty feet back of the face of
the big quarry, and the explosion or
the dynamite with which they were
to be loaded was expected to displace
10000 tons of rock.
The workmen had placed 50O-pound
charges in six of the holes and were
working on the seventh when a per-
cussion cap was prematurely dis
charged. A terrific explosion fol-
lowed which hurled tons of rock into
the air and scattered bodies of the
victims in all directions

WARM DEBATE IN SENATE
Members of Upper House Indulge in
Personalities.

Washington, May 15.-Again the
committee on finance was upheld
when the senate voted down an
amendment by Senator Cummins to
lower the duty on round iron, etc., by
vote of IS to AZ and upheld the
house rate, which was recommended
by the senate committee.
Almost the entire session was given
up to a debate on the profits of the
United States Steel corporation and
toward the end of the day personali-
ties were freely INDUCED in by sena-
tors. This occurred after Senator
Root had spoken in defense of the
finance committee and in criticism of
senators who had complained of the
failure of that committee to provide
more ample information concerning
various schedules. Mr.. Money, ad-
dressing himself directly to the sena-
tor from New York, resented what he
characterized as a lecture to the sen.
ate and said that if the senator from
New York desired less speaking in

Receiver Appointed for Tracy.
& Go. Of New York
LIABILITIES ABOUT 4 MILLION
Suspension Due to investments
in Taxicab Company.

New York, May 1S.-In the appoint
ment of a receiver for Tracy & Co.,
members of the New York Stock Ex-
change and the Chicago Board of
Trade, Wall street had million dol
lar failure with an interesting varia-
ton from the usual. Taxicabs, not
stock manipulation or market condi-
lions, are said to be indirectly respon-
sible for the firms troubles. While
no announcement as to the exact
cause of the failure has been made, E.
derstood that money lost in backing a
local taxicab concern figured in the
outside ventures. The firm has no
stock exchange obligations. The to-
tai liabilities are estimated at $1,000
900, the assets at half that amount.
Both these sums are approximate.
Among stock exchange houses with
Chicago connections, the enbarrass-
ment Of the firm caused little surprise.
The situation is regarded by friends
Of Mr.. Tracy as result, at least in
part, of proposed taxicab legislation
pending before the local board of al
dermen. When a hearing was held
with regard to proposed legislation
some weeks ago, all attorney for taxi
cab interests announced to che CON-
mitteemcn of the board that any re-
duction in the rate Of fare might mean
bankruptcy for some persons interest
ed. Put the proposed bill was report
ed, though further consideration was
postponed.
Besides the main New York office
In Wall street, the firm maintained To-
cal branches in West Thirty-third
street and at the Hotel Gotham. It
had other Offices in Chicago, St. Louis,
Louisville, Milwaukee and New Haven,

DOZEN PERSONS ARE INJURED
Train Robbers Cause Collision on the
Great Northern.

Great Northern.
Spokane, Wash, May 17-Twelve
persons were injured in the wrecking
of Great Northern coast train by
four masked robbers, who looted it
fourteen miles east of this city, be-
tween Morse and Colbert.
The mail sacks were rihed, the
amount of the robbers haul being es-
timated at $20,OOO.
When the train was held UP at Col
bert the robbers, at the pistols point,
compelled Engineer William Miller
and Fireman John Hall to run the
engine and mail car about two miles
ard, after driving the crew from the
cab and taking what they wanted,
turned the engine and car back at
full speed upon the standing passen-
ger coaches.
The force of the collision was
broken somewhat by the presence of
mind of Conductor C. L. Robertson,
who had ties piled in the way of the
oncoming catapult, but only stag
gered it.
Before the collision Conductor Rob-
c-tson had telegraphed Spokane of
the holdup and two carloads of Off
GERS We're hurried to the scene, fol-
lowed by physicians to care for the
injured.

River Near Plttsburg,
TWENTY men ARE DROWNED
Only Ten Of the Passengers
Known to Have Escaped.

Pfttsburg, May 12.-Twenty men
are known to have been drowned
when a gasoline launch sank in the
middle of the Ohio river near Schoen-
vile, four miles below Pittsburg. Of
the thirty occupants of the boat only
ten escaped
All the men were employees of the
Pressed Steel company at the McKees
Rocks plant. The men had been
working overtime and left the works
10 cross the river in the launch The
boat is said to have been intended
for not more than twenty persons and
1t is said it was dangerous to at
tempt to carry as many as twenty
ave. But thirty men crowded in and
when the boat reached the middle OF
the stream, where the water is twenty
feet deep, it suddenly sank:
There was no explosion, no leak
was sprung, but the boat simply sank
beneath the weight AS it sank il
caused suction which took many Of
the men down with it. Others at
tempted to swim ashore, but were
chilled by the cold water and became
exhausted
John Deer, who lives on the bank
of the river and heard cries for help
went out in a skiff and saved nine
lives. Part of that number of men
he put into his boat, while others
held to the side of it and were rowed
ashore. One man swan to the bank
and was saved.
