TEEN IN CAR
WRECK
RUNAWAY LUMBER CAR CRASH
ED INTO ELECTRIC FREIGHT
TRAIN AT VANCOUVER, B. c.,
THIS MORNING.

Vancouver, B. c.. Nov. 10.-A run
away car of lumber early today COLI
lider with a crowded passenger car
on the British Columbia Electric
company's interurban line. Four
teen were killed, including the motor
man and conductor of the freight
car. The passengers were mostly
workmen bound for the British Co.
lumbia Electric compan's car build
ing shops in New Westminster. The
two injured will probably die.
Practically all the people in the
car were killed or injured. Some who
escaped death on the first crash were
killed when timbers fell on them at
the edge of the track. Up to ten
O'Clock no bodies were identified ex
cept those Of NJ torman -.-orbarn
and ColGr'to tor harris, the Others De-
ing unrecognizable.
The passenger car left the station
ar Vancouver just acter the dopar-
ture of the electric freight train. tka
last car of which was flat car
loaded with heavy timbers. some 80
to so feet long. many a foot thick.
Three miles out at the head of n
grade the coupling of the lumber car
broke and il started backward to-
ward the city. By this time the
passenger car was a quarter of
mile behind. Suddenly the runaway
lumber car dashed into view, travel
ing at tremendous speed on the
down grade. Before the passenger
car, the heavy timbers, as If greas-
ed, slid off the flat car, ripping the
passenger car level to the floor.
Every passenger was crushed between
the woodwork and the flying tim
bers. Not a silver was left stand
ing on the passenger car. The work
of removing the dead and injured
was tremendous task, owing to the
heavy timbers which buried manyFo of
the dead and injured beneath their
great weight.
The motorman and conductor of
the freight train were placed under
arrest. No formal charge was ap-,
piled against them. The list of dead
follows: R. T. Lyons, T. Farmer. l..

GET $4,000 FROM
CARNEGIE
CIT COUNCIL LAST NIGHT VOTED
TO ACCEPT THIS SUM FROM
PHILANTHROPIST FOR LIBRA
RY PURPOSES.

Howard Thomas, of the library
and park committee of the city coua-
eli. was in receipt of letter this
week from Andrew Carnegie relative
to the bequest for library purposes
for this city Some time during the
early summer the committee was in
communication with Mr.. Carnegie
and he stated that at that time he
was willing to make gift of $40, 900
for the library. The council, how
ever, felt that this sum was not suf
ficient to erect the character of build
ing that was desired for the city and
to the end that an additional 5000
be secured further correspondence
was entered into. The letter re-
ceived this week, however, stated
that but $4,000 would be available
for this purpose, and the council last
night voted to accept the bequest.
Plans will be drawn Immediately
for $4,000 building. Nothing
definite has been decided as yet on
the site, but several are under con-
sideration. Some consideration has
been given to the triangle in the
north part of the city park and it
may be that this site will be decided
upon. One of the requisites in order
to secure this appropriation of s10,-
600 is that the city shall guarantee
an annual tax of 900 for the
maintenance of the library. 1t is not
thought that it will be feasible to
start work on the new building until
spring but all arrangements will be
made so that the work can be start
ei as early as possible.

Will Make His Home i'm Spokane.

z. E. Hayden expects to close up
his business here this week and will
go to Spokane to take up his future
residence. He will be succeeded here
by E. A. Hale Since the absorption
by the Lamb-Davis Lumber company
of the Hayden Lumber company Mr.
Hayden has made his headquarters in
this city and had charge of the SELL
ing department of the Lamb-Davis
Lumber company. His business in
this city. however. has kept him away
from his family and this is one of
the reasons for giving up his work in
this city. Last year he organized a
wholesale lumber company in Spo-
kane but on coming here sold mis-
interest. Recently he has repur-
chased his interest In the business
and will give his attention to 1t on
going back to Spokane. Mr.. Hayden
at the last meeting of the club, re-
signed his position as secretary of
the $4,000 club.

STRIKE
/. W. w. PRISONERS IN SPOKANE
COMPELLED BY HUNGER TO
ABANDON FIGHT FOR FREE
SPEECH.

Spokane, Nov. 10.-Seventeen I.
w. w. street speakers weakened by
four or five days in the city Jail with
out food, gave up the starvation
strike" this morning and were taken
to the hospital where good breakfasts
were prepared Two declared their
willingness to go to work and were
marched to the rock pile amid the
jeers and curses of their former COM
rades. More than 100 prisoners still
persist in their refusal to accept pri-
son fare, some apparently having
touched no food since Thursday
night. Some of these lie on hunks
too weak and exhausted to stand.
THE back of the l. w. w. fight
is broken" said Chief of Police John
T. Sullivan. .'They have found the
Spokane police a different PROPOSE

There isn't chance in the world for
these fellows to win. and they know
it. Uncle Sam and the state are
back of us in this fight and we will
stay with it.
Say for me that every l. w. w.
sentenced will serve every minute of
his time. The I. w. w. leaders name
as one of their terms of settlement
the unconditional surrender of every
man in jail. Nothing like that will
ever happen. The business men and
taxpayers of Spokane demand that
we stand pat and we are going to
do it."
Owing to the crowded condition of
the city jail about 80 l. w. w. lead
ers have been removed to the Frank
lin school building. where they are
held under guard While the govern
ment has granted permission to put
prisoners in the guard house at Fort
Wright city officials have not as yet
utilized the fort for detention pur-
poses.

SADDLE IS
FULL Of GYPSUM
LOCAL CORPORATION FORMED
TO WORK BIG DEPOSIT FOUND
ON THIS MOUNTAIN WEST OF
WENATCHEE.

Squaw Saddle may be the means
CT bringing into this valley very
substantial revenue What is con-
sidered to be the finest body of gyp-
sum IN the world is said to have
been uncovered on that little noun
tain, west of Wenatchee.
Recently there has been incorpor-
ated the Squaw Saddle Mining e
Milling company, with Pat Heley,
president; John Keegan, vice presi-
dent; Henry Sommers, secretary, and
R. S. Ludington, treasurer. The
capital stock is placed at 25O,O00
shares with the par value of 81 each.
This company owns 160 acres on
Squaw Saddle mountain and this in
cludes the seemingly limitless body
of gypsum. Many assays on this de-
posit give from so to 90 per cent
silica.
Gypsum is used in making the
white brick, the fire brick, pottery,
tiling. paving, stucco, stucco work,
lamp plaster and enters very largely
into the making of Portland cement.
The officers of the company are
putting a bunch of the stock on the
market in order to raise money to
put in small plant. They are very
enthusiastic over their find and claim
that the gypsum deposit on Squaw
Saddle mountain will be the source
for the location of a very large plant
at the foot hills of this mountain.
where thousands of men will be en-
plOyed. It has been known for some
time that the gypsum deposit had
been found but the claim locators
have been very reticent about giving
out anything. 1t is expected that a
number of local business men will
become interested in the corporation
formed and that early next spring the
machinery may be installed for max
ing the pressed brick. Later on a
cement factory will become one of
the features of the corporation.

GERMAN MOVE
WORRIES
SPAIN
MADRID ADVICES SAY THE KAI-
SER SERIOUSLY PROPOSES TO
MAKE TROUBLE OVER RIFF
MINING CLAIMS IN MOROCCO.

Madrid, Nov. 10.-That Germany
seriously proposes to make trouble
over it's mining claims in Morocco
and especially over those in the Riff
country, to which Spain lays claim,
is apparently conclusively proven by
the reports that Madrid government
has received from its agents in Ber-
lin and at other capitals where the
kaiser's representatives have con-
suited experts on international law.
The advice of 13 of these authori-
ties has been taken, it is learned, by
the kaiser. All of them, including
the celebrated Professor Westlake,
probably the best known of the en-
tire group, are agreed that the COM
ing international conference en- the
elaboration of Moroccan mining laws
can deal only with the future ana
that the so-called Mannesmann con-
cessions must. therefore, stand, no
matter what the conference may re-
suit in otherwise.
When it is considered that Mann
esmann Bros concessions include an
area amounting to One-tenth of the
whole of Morocco, that they include
also the most promising mineral re-
gions in the country and that among
them is one covering the Riff terri
tory, it becomes apparent that the
conference stands a small chance of
accomplishing anything very injuri-
GUS to German interests or of much
benefit to the claims put forward by
any other country

majority of %. In the First ward
there were more votes cast and it
took until about $50 to complete the

there been SO more votes the result
would have been different

COOK GETS DATA
READY
TIME SO INVADED IN NEW YORK
PLACE FOR THE PURPOSE OF
COMPLETING WORK.

New York, Nov 10.-Dr. Freder-
ick A. Cook, the explorer, is at a
quiet place away from New York pre-
pairing his north pole data for SUBJ
mission to Copenhagen university. A
statement issued tonight by his law
yer says:
"Dr. Cooks time was SO invaded
while in New York and he was under
such surveillance by persons SEEM
ingly interested in his movements
and those of his counsel AMI friends,
that he decided to continue the work
upon the data for Copenhagen in a
quiet place away from New York.
When his work is done DR.. Cook
will resume his activities in New
York and elsewhere as usual"
1t is denied that messages to and
from DR.. Cook at his New York hotel
were intercepted, but the statement
says that the contents of messages
sent to DIR. Cook in the west we're
published before they reached him. -
DR.. Cook today caused to be issued,
through a friend, a statement in an
swer to Rear Admiral Chester of the
National Geographic society, who dis
credited the Brooklyn explorers S
claims in an interview at Washing
ton. DR.. Cook says:
Reply to Chester.
This is an unbiased gentleman
who displayed such anxiety to pass
upon my records and who now de-
sires to go to Copenhagen as an un-
prejudiced witness Do the Ameri-
can people wonder that I have kept
my promise to the scientists OF Deh-
mark?
THE only point raised by Admiral
Chester is the suggestions of errone-
Gus location of the midnight sun.
This sight of the midnight sun on
April Z is no evidence of our posi-
ton. Though the days had been
clear the north skies had not been
clear at night for many days previous
to this.
"A low haze or cloudiness obscurei
the horizon and the sun sank into
this We did not use the sun at
night for the observations Nor did
we stay awake all night to watch
effects.
The original data. which I will
send to Copenhagen on November 25
by a special messenger, will be ac-
companied by an analysis which |
am now preparing and which. l hope,
will make it unnecessary for men to
attend before the university of CO.
penhagen to explain such questions
as may arise upon the original record
of my observations.
My unaltered original field notes
and my instruments, when I recover
them, will, of course, be available
for examination by the National eco
graphic society upon the condition
that Commander Peary agrees to sub
NIT his original data and instruments
for examination at the University OF
Copenhagen.
