BUTCHER CARRIES EYE
TO HOSPITAL IN HAND

San Francisco, July 22.-Holding in
his hand his right eye which had
been torn from its socket by meat
hook Andrew Anderson, a butcher.
calmly walked into the receiving hos
pital today and asked surgical aid.
Despite the terrible agony he had en-
dured Anderson merely said:
Il got tangled with a meat hook
and pulled out this eye" holding it
out for the surgeon to examine.
The accident happened when An
derson tried to keep his hat from be-
ing blown by the wind. He slipped
on the sidewalk and fell against the
hook.
The injured man drove a dozen
blocks after the accident to get aid.
AnderSon's stoicism astonished the
physicians. They say that Anderson's
capacity to enduce pain has never
been equalled to their knowledge.

WILL COMPETE
FOR NORTHWEST TRAFFIC

Portland.-Locating general freight
and passenger offices of the Wabash
lines in Portland brings into the fight
for northwest business every import
ant railroad system in the United
States save the Baltimore & Ohio and
Santa Fe. The Wabash cmpaign for
business in the territory of which
Portland is the center and San Fran
cisco the antipodes comes after years
of planning and figuring on profits
and methods.
The Portland branch is the first
location Of the system in the Pacific
northwest w. D. Stubs. who has re-
ceived the very desirable appointment
of general Wabash agent for this dis
trict, is expected to arrive in Port
land today. The location of the COM
pany's offices will follow his arrival
and the formal opening will take
place August.
Now that the Wabash has invaded
the territory popularity supposed to
belong to Hill and Hartman. the re-
port comes that the Baltimore e.
Ohio will also establish general Off
ces in Portland in the near future.
Portland is regarded as the key
to the railroad situation of the Pa
cific northwest, if not of the entire
Pacific coast" said a prominent rail-
road man this morning. "Hill and
Harriman's game of checkers for po-
sition has been long watched by 9TH
er railroads, which have figured as
spectators. But you never saw the
onlooker in a checker game who did
not believe he could play the game
better than the fellow that is in it. SO
with the railroads. They're all COM
ing in to get their position on this
Pacific coast king row. AS a matter
Of fact, there is room here for every
one. The tremendous movements of
lumber to eastern markets impending
because of depleted forests in the
states east of the Mississippi to-
gether with the agricultural and min
eral development of this country make
/ impossible for any one line with
out competition to render satisfactory
passenger and freight service to the
rapidly increasing population"
