horse he was riding in Potomac park

time on his accustomed horse, he
mounted one he had never tried before.

Works Deals Out Quick
Death to Two

WATSONVILLE, Cal, April 27.-ln
an unsuccessful attempt to rescue a
fellow worker August Greenfield was
asphyxiated in a large tank of the
Jones Brothers vinegar works today.
Greenfield met death in attempting to
save the life of Roy Phillips, who also
died in the carbon dioXide fumes in
the tank. Greenfeldt was 81 years old
and Phillips 20.
Phillips entered the tank to clean
it, not knowing that the pipe through
which the gas entered had been left
open.
When, after several minutes had
passed. the youth did not return
Greenfield, fearing he had met with
misfortune, prepared to go to his res
cue. He was warned by other work.
men, but persisted and covering his
mouth and nose with his hand, rushed
into the death trap.
The men on the outside heard no
outcry and for a few moments did not
attempt rescue. When they entered
the tank, after releasing part of the
gas, both men were dead, locked in
each others arms.
Greenfield had fallen in his attempt
to drag his companion out of danger.
A physician who examined the bodies
said death must have been almost in
stantaneous in both cases.

SONGBlRDS' GREED DRIVES
HAMMERSTEIN FROM OPERA
Famed Director Facing Defeat,
Turns to Vaudeville

NEW YORK, April 27.-Oscar Ham
merstein has abandoned the field of
grand opera. Through Samuel Inter
meyer, his counsel and his son Arthur
he announced today that he had caplt-
ulated ito the exactions of the artistic
temperament, which, aided and flat
tered by competition, now demanded
salaries which, if paid, meant bank
ruptcy, and if refused meant no per-
formances."
Both his own and the Metropolitan
Opera company faced deficits, he said,
for the season just closed.
Hammerstein retains his Manhattan
opera house here, which he probably
will turn over to vaudeville. His cos
tunes, scenery and all other property
and contracts for next season pass to
the Metropolitan for cash considera-
tion. which, with the amount paid by
Mr.. Stotesberry, will guarantee him a
total of $2,0O0,000.

STEAMERS COMING
Hartman Lines to Put the Bear,
Beaver and Rose City on
Los Angeles Run
(speclal To The Herald.)

SAN PEDRO, April 27-Three big
steamers of the San Francisco and
Portland Steamship company probably
will be running between Los Angeles
and the northern terminus of the line,
via San Francisco, within two weeks.
These are the new sister steamers
Bear, Beaver and Rose city, now on
the run between Portland and San
Francisco.
c.. L. Blair, the general freight agent
for the line, was here today. He admits
that the company contemplates extend
ing its service to Los Angeles, and
that these three steamers will be used
on a six-day schedule. 1t is thought
that Mr. Blair was here to arrange
for a berth and the discharge Of the
steamers, although he did not admit
that this was the purpose of his visit
to the harbor.
The Portland line is generally known
as a Hartman line The company was
originally known as the Oregon NaVi-
cation company, and was the southern
outlet for the Union Pacific and Oregon
Short Line before the merger with the
Southern Pacific. The company is now
under the same management as the
Pacific Mail line, in which the South
ern Pacific owns a majority of the cap
ital stock.
There is considerable speculation as
to the object of the company in invad-
ing the Los Angeles field at this time,
The new line would be a direct compet-
itor of the Northern Pacific steamship
line. operating the Roanoke and Geo.
W. Elder, and indirectly of the Alaska
Pacific line. operating the Admiral
Sampson, the Buckman and the Wat
son between here and Puget sound, as
well as of the Pacific Coast Steamship
company
The new steamers are almost as large
as the President and Governor the big
liners of the Pacific Coast company,
and now the largest steamers in the
coastwise service. They are $50 feet
long, have 4S-foot beam, draw 1876 feet
of water loaded with $500 tons of
freight, and have accommodations for
273 first class and 249 second class pas
sengers.

escaped. He was followed by seven
other bulls. Later, while the entire
force of trainers and keepers was en-

elephants by automobiles, the female
escaped.
For several hours the elephants were
at large. The entire force of police
reserves was called into action and
gave chase. After escaping the ele-
plants moved for some time in bunch
and then separated. They stopped for
nothing except brick and stone build
ings. Small frame structures, coal
sheds, fences and trees in their path
were pushed aside, turned over or up
rooted.
PUSH KITCHEN ASIDE

of the elephants found there was not
sufficient room to pass between the
summer kitchen and residence, and
pushed the kitchen aside, badly fright
enng the persons within.

overturning a shed and killing horse,
one of the animals attacked PEBBLE and
hurled him against the side of the
house.
He is now in a critical condition.
Barney ONeil was thrown from a
wagon when the herd of elephants
dashed down a side street and in front
of his team. f. Krabbe, a keeper, VINO
was assisting in taking three bulls TO
the cars after their capture, was hurled
against the side of a barn and seriously
injured.
other persons were injured slightly
during the stampede.
More than 100 homes we're attacked
by the elephants, and the damage Will
probably aggregate $4,000 or $4,000.
Truck gardens, orchards and many
buildings were ruined.
Tonight one elephant is still at large,
two or three miles north of the city,
and force of attendants with two
bulls and a female were sent to capture
