Anether woman Saifrage State.

Washington now takes rank as the
fifth state TO grant the full suffrage
TO women on equal terms with men.
The constitutional amendment was
ear fed IN every county IN the state.
The west has always been more
hospItable TO equal suffrage than the
east. Following the example OF Wy
oming In 1863. Colorado enfIanchised
women IN 1898. and Utah and Idaho
in 1886 The next step follows after
a lapse Of IA years.
On the other hand. In Oregon. a
constitutional amendment permitting
women TO vote has been rejected for
the second time. and Oklahoma and
South Dakota have also rendered an
adverse verdict. The women suffra-
gists. however. are accustomed TO de-
feat. One victory will cause more re-
joicing among then than a score Of
defeats can produce dismay.-New

BUENOS AYRES. ARGENTINA,
Oct. 28.-It is feared here that the

ITHACA, NJ Y, October 2S.-l nat
Lauren B. Paine, of Duluth, the fresh
man who died at Cornell infirmary
last night, did not die from injuries
received in football practice, was
made known tonight after an autopsy
on The body by Dr. Charles A Bentz,
the Buffalo pathologist.
The findings confirmed the opinion
of the football coaches and others

moves all doubts as to the playing or
the balance of the scheduled year
The findings are conta ned in a
telegram sent tonight by President

boy's father, in which President
Schurman points out that DR.. Bentz
found as the result of post-mortem
that young Paine died of "unavoid-

Engineer Pearse Says Struc-
ture May Fall Down.
LAW REQUIRES REMOVAL
Ordinance Adopted at Time Hampton
Roads Traction Co. Surrendered
Franchise Provided That Company
Tear Down Trestle.

Following the reading Of a letter
from City Engineer T. f. Pearse last
night before the council committee
on highways and sewers relative to
the tearing down of the old steel
trestle across the Chesapeake & Ohio
railway yard at Twenty-sixth street,
il developed that under the provision
of the ordinance allowing the com.
pany to abandon it's franchise in this
city the Hampton Roads Traction
Company was required 10 tear the
trestle down before January l, 1908.
The fact that the company had failed
to carry out the provisions of the or
dinance had been generally overlook
ed and it is probable that steps will
be taken to see that the company
complies with this provision.
City Engineer Pearse said in his
letter that the trestle had been built
a number of years and had not been
properly cared for and it might prove
dangerous He pointed out that the
bridge had not been painted in years
and that the gases from locomotives
passing under it probably had rotted
the steel work and made the trestle
unsafe.
Mayor Not Certain.
Mayor Marquis Jones. who was
counsel for the old Hampton Roads
Railway & Electric Company. which
company constructed the trestle. stat.
ed that as he remembered it the rail
way company and the Chesapeake &
Ohio executed the contract for the
construction of the trestle and that
the city was in no way party to
the contract. However, he would not
venture an opinion as to whether or
not the city could be held liable in
case the trestle fell and caused injury
to life or property. He said that he
feared that the trestle might fall on
a passing passenger train and cause
the injury or death of many persons
Subsequently City Engineer Pearse
secured copy of the city ordinances
and found the ordinance requiring the
Hampton Roads Traction Company TO
tear the trestie down at the time that
ii moved its tracks from Twenty-sixth
street from West avenue to Warwick
avenue and on Warwick avenue to
Hampton avenue and on Hampton
avenue to Chestnut avenue.
After some further discussion the
committee referred the entire matter
to City Attorney J. A. Massie for an
opinion as to whether or not the city
could be held liable in case of injury
to persons or property occasioned by
the falling of the trestle.
