TWO men KILLED NEAR NORTH
YAKIMA, SUNDAY.
Burlington Train Going 20 Miles An
Hour Runs Into an Open Switch-Wil-
liam Gordon Sticks to Post With Fire
man-Meyers Dead-Engine Whistles
Distress Signals-Two Cars Ditched.

North Yakima, Wash, April u.s.
While running at 20 miles an hour past
Selah station, six miles northwest of
North Yakima, the Burlington passen-
ger train over the Northern Pacific
railroad was wrecked, Engineer VIII
liam Gordon of Ellensburg, and Fire
man Meyers of Pasco, being instantly
killed, while Theron R. Pratt of Sc
attic, mail clerk, and William Brogan
of Seattle, mail weigher, were slightly
injured. That many passengers on the
heavily loaded train were not injured
or killed was due TO the presence of
mind and heroism of Engineer Gordon,
who lost his life in the effort to save
those under his care, when he shut off
the steam, threw on the air-brakes, and
even placed the emergency brake, in
the 400 feet the train ran from the time
il struck an open or defective switch.
Exactly how the accident happened
will probably never be known.
Whistles Distress Signal
According to Conductor G. +. Church
i'll, who was taking tickets in the day
coach when the engine left the track,
the train was going about 20 miles an
hour. Suddenly the air brakes were
set, the engine whistle gave the short
distress blasts and a second later there
was a crash. Engine No. 2sO, pulling
the train, had left the main line, gone
into the switch just east of Selah, jump
ed the track. and been dumped over
an embankment about five feet high.
Forced by the momentum Of the heavy
train, the mail ear had swept by the
overturned engine and had turned about
a quarter over, and the baggage ear
had followed. Both ears were badly
damaged.

Football Is Not Yet on the List Of

New Haven, Ct, Oct. 2.-That the new

the Connecticut Agricultural College, and
the more or less serious injury to five
other college players.

ACCESSIBILITY Of Cance||ing Meet
Is Discussed.
insufficient Policing Of Parkway
Blamed for accidents.

New York, Oct. 2.-The board OF
supervisors of Nassau county, L. l.,
will hold a special meeting tomorrow
to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of can
ceiling the permit for the Grand
Prize automobile race scheduled to
be held over the Vanderbilt Cup
course on Oct. Is. Notwithstanding
yesterdays list of four dead and
more than 20 injured incident to the
Vanderbilt contest S. A. r. Pardling-
ton. general manager of the Long Is
land Motor Parkway, is authority for
the statement that nothing but official
interference shall stop the Grand Prize
Several drivers booked to partici-
pate in the event have demanded more
adequate policing of the course and
tonight William Pici1ngs, manager Of
Barney Oldfield, gave out the following
message which he says Oldfield sent
from Chicago.
Withdraw my entry from Grand
Prize race, unless course will be
guarded completely by troops I am
unwilling to risk my neck and car"
Oldfield follows with severe arraign-
ment of the management OF the Van
derbilt. whom he says Spent nothing,
to safeguard drivers and spectators. >
The foregoing from Oldfield is some
what cryptic, however, in that it was
said in New York tonight that he was
not entered for the Grand Prize. 1t
was at first understood that he would
drive Benz car but the Benz man

who will offer motion to cancel the per-

night:
THE killing and manning at yesterday s
automobile race seems to me to indicate
the end of that kind of sport on the high

1.-The Motor Cups Holding Co., which
obtained the permit to hold these races,

all damages resulting from accidents and
another bond to guarantee that the roads
will be repaired if they are damaged.

with it, but in my mind the county is a

Sheriff Mooers, after travelling over

last June. Sheriff McOers received a
call June 80 that George Jewett, a
farmer, 81 years old, who lived alone,
had been found in his barn, tied with
hay wire, his head buried up and
nearly exhausted.
JeWett's story, as told to Sheriff
MoOers, was that he was on his way
to his barn just at dusk to feed his
cattle and close the barn for the night
when, as he was going through the
doorway, two men jumped from around
the corner of the barn and knocked
him down. Then they grabbed him

Prices Rose Last Week
in Face Of Short Money,
October Dividends and Interest
Call for S17O,oOo,OoO.
Question Of New Enterprises In
voIved with Rates.

New York, Oct. 2.-An uplift in prices
of stocks was achieved last week in
face of the narrowing resources in the
money market, which induced a nota-
BILE hardening of money rates at all the
great money centers of the world.
While the immediate cause was found
in the preparations for the October
money settlements, the influence of
which might be assumed to be tempo
rary, it was manifest that banking au-
thorities We're expecting changes Of
longer duration.
The higher call loan rate in New
York was ascribed to the shifting of
accounts in accordance with October
payments of about $170,000,0O0 in divi-
dends and interest, in itself a crafty
ing showing and expected to furnish an
investment fund to benefit the securi4
ties market. There is to be considered
also, the cash requirements Of the in
terror fer the movement of the crops
which again asserted themselves dur
ing the week in heavy volume. The adj
vance in time loan rates, especially for
shorter periods carrying over the end
of the year. was the consequence of
reuuisition for internal revenue pay
mcnts by draft on New York, the indi-
rect gain by the interior in this way
reaching an important amount
Outside the immediate money mar
ket position, it is obvious that some
capital accumulation has been going
on ard that securities markets are be-
ginning to get the benefit This is par
ticularly manifest in the increased de-
mand and rising prices for bonds. The
slowing down of new enterprises since
the first of the year and the restriction
in output of new securities, with ac-
comranying methods of economy in in
dustrial production brings this natural
result.
Large intended issues of new capt.
tai are known to be deferred and not
abandoned. The resumption of capital
fotatons at the first favorable oppor
tunity is matter to be reckoned with
in estimating the future investment
position
The belief persists that the question
OF rate advances by the railroads is
wrapped up with that of resumption of
new enterprises and outlay by the rail-
roads. This feeling was shown in the
quick response OF the stock market to
the reported movement to engage rail-
road employees in active steps for adj
vances in freight rates. Unconfirmed
rumors regarding Reading accompa-
MED the primacy of that stock in the
weeks speculative advance.
The comfortable feeling regarding the
corn crop constituted a substantial
backlog to speculative sentiment

First Deer Of Fall Brought
]; into Bangor Saturday,
Most Hunters Are Waiting for
II Moose Season 10 Open. /.
PLENTY Of Game Will Be Found In
Wood, for All Corners.

,o,oor Me-. Oct. 1.-The first deer
-. the season seen in Bangor was
brought in Saturday by Fred Patton or
uudson. 1t was a plump buck and
sold at a fancy price to local mar
bot The steaks will be served at a
Bangor club
Mr.. Patton said the deer had been a
nuisance around his place for some
weeks feeding on garden stuff and do
ing considerable damage. He shot the
animal early in the morning from the
rear window of his barn.
Passengers on the late train sat
urday night said several deer had been
shot near Norcross, Millinocket and
around Moosehead lake. nut they would
be eaten in the sporting camps.
The weather was like midsummer
with heavy thunder showers in some
sections, ard game will not keep for
transportation.
Game Warden Walter l. Neal, who,
with Warden Perkins, went on duty at
the union station to inspect all trains
for violations of the game laws, says
he doesn't expect many hunters until
the moose season opens. The idea that
the deer would all be killed or scared
away before the hunters get here no
longer prevails, as the hunter is sure
of getting his allowance at any time
in the season.

Five Of the Los Angeles
Times Victims Recovered.
Three Arrests Madeleine Of
Suspects an Anarchist.
Statement to the Public by the
Owner, Gen. Otis.

Los Angeles, Oct. "A large force
of workmen, after digging for 30 hours
into the debris of the Times building,
wrecked by an explosion Saturday
morning. have unearthed five of the
10 bodies bruised in the ruins. The
men are still at work tonight, aided
by huge railway crane and derrick.
which is lifting out the masses of
heavy steel.
In the meantime the police are
guarding the home of Gen. Harrison
Gray Otis, proprietor of the Times,
and that Of Gen. Manager Harry G.
Chandler. Guards are also watching
over the plants of several concerns
recently involved in strikes.
Three arrests have. been made since
the explosion. One of the suspects
is an alleged Anarchist. Martin Egan.
In the hope of obtaining information
as to the perpetrators of the outrage.
Mayor Alexander increased the city's
offer of reward today to 100000 This
together with the offers of local
newspapers and labor organizations,
whose leaders have announced a de-
termination to assist in the search
for the criminals, raises the total
amount of rewards to s1S,500. The
city's offer is intended to tempt any
one having knowledge OF a dynamite
conspiracy to divulge the secret. There
are no conditions.
The body of ]. Wesley Reaves, sec
rotary to Harry Chandler. Is one of
those recovered today. Identity was
established more by the place in which
it was found than by any evidence
on the body itself. 1t was burned in
to fragments and so were the four
other bodies taken out today.
The first body was found shortly
after o'clock this morning and be-
tween that time and 7:30 o'clock three
more We're recovered. all burned be-
yond recognition. One of the bodies
is supposed to be that of Howard
Cordaway, a young stereotypist.
Mrs. Churchill Harvey Elder, wife of
the night editor, who died of his burns
and injuries yesterday. arrived here from
San Francisco. and shortly afterward col
lapsed from the strain under which she
had labored since learning of the catas-
trophe. She is in serious condition to-
night. John Howard, Jr., son of one of
| the linotypers whose body is believed to
be in the ruins, also collapsed today.
Since the morning Of the explosion he
had been watching the ruins and waiting
for the shovel men to work their way 10
the body.
The inquest will be held Tuesday. Al
that time the committee of dynamite ex-
perts and engineers appointed by Chiei

wreckage in an effort to learn the charac'

would give him three minutes to tell
where he kept his money.
The old man said he would not tell
if they killed him. Then they said
they would kill him in three minutes
If he did not tell where he kept his
money. The old man still refused
and they said if he would promise
to tell where they could get $50 they
would let him go. Jewett still re-
fused and the men choked him and
then bound him with hay wire, which
cut into his wrists and they they
buried up his head with a coat and
left him.
The old man was nearly exhausted
and was suffering intense pain from
the wires, but finally he was able
to release himself. He did not re-

He could not give the officer a de-
scription of the men. but said they
