COMMISSION
BLAMES BOTH
ROAD and MEN

After a thorough Investigation of
the wreck occurring on the Oregon
Trunk Line in Eastern Oregon on
July 10, and in which eight persons
were killed, and II injured, the State
Railroad Commission today issued
report upon it in which it censures
the violation of orders by those in
charge of the train.
The report is voluminous, covering
the condition of the roadbed and the
equipment of the trains in detail. Ii
says, in conclusion, that it is hard to
determine whether the wreck was due
to excess of speed or bad surface on
the curve, but that both contributed
to it. AS to the negligence of those
in charge of the train it makes no
further reference than to direct that
copy of the order be furnished the
district attorney of the judicial dis
triet in which the wreck occurred.
The report especially censures the
violation of train orders, saying that
they mean something, and that 1t Is
the duty of those in charge of trains
to observe and obey them.

A RAILROAD
BRIDGE is
ASSURED

Advices were received this morn
ing by those interested in the con-
struction of a bridge across the Will
lamette sriver to let the Salem, Falls
City & Western Railroad company
enter the city, that the department at
Washington, d. c., would approve
the plans in time for work to COM
mence on the construction of the
bridge before the high water set in.
The franchise for the construction
of railway tracks of the Salem, Falls
City & Western in the city was
granted some time ago-a month or
more by the council. The plan was
then to commence active work on the
building of the bridge at once but
before it could be commenced, it was
necessary to secure permit from
the secretary of war at Washington,
D. c., and since that time the attor-
neys for the company have been busy
in making negotiations for the per-

ACCIDENTS NUMBER 1894
IN STATE IN 40 DAYS

Complete returns relative to in
dustrial and manufacturing institu-
tions of the state for a period ex-
tending from May 20 to June 30
show that the sawmill industry can
lay claim to the greatest number of
accidents-the number for that in
dustry being IS. The total number
of accidents is 1894.
Ranking next to the sawmill bust
ness comes construction work and
machine foundry and boiler manufac-
turing, each laying claim to 43 acci-
dents. Railroad construction work
can boast of 26, and logging opera
tions AZ.
The purpose in gathering this in
formation by the commissioner is to
put him in position where he can
study the conditions under which
they occur, and remedy them, and
also to compile data for future legis-
lation on the subject. The law max
ing it the duty of an employer to re-
port all accidents to the commission
er was passed at the last session OF
the legislature.

IN A HURRY

THEIR FINES

UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE
New York, July 25.-Fines of $1,000
each against officers of the firms re-
Gently indicted under the Sherman
law for illegal combination in pool
ing, started a small-sized stampede
in the United States court room this
afternoon by men under indictment
who rushed in to offer pleas of nolle
contendere and receive the nominal
fines. The sentences were imposed
by Federal Judge Archbauld.
United States District Attorney
Wise angrily protested that the
judges action in accepting the nom
inal pleas of guilty and letting the
men off with small fines brought the
governments crusade against the
wire manufactures and the subsidi-
aries of the steel trust to naught
Judge Archbauld refused to listen
to Wise, and the latter left the
courtroom highly incensed.
The first fines were imposed when
members of the firms making up the
Fine Magnet Wire association ap-
peared in court and entered their
pleas. When other corporation Off
GERS heard of the judges finding,
they hastened to the courtroom and
the clerk was kept busy registering
their pleas while the 800 fines were
handed out Twenty officers and d.
rectors of the Rubber Covered Wire
association hurried to court and en-
tered their pleas.

ASTORIA WATCH FOB
CANNOT BE TRADE MARKED

That the souvenir watch fob of the
Astoria Centennial committee cannot
be registered as a trade mark under
the law is the opinion Of Attorney
General Crawford. The opinion was
rendered at the request of Secretary
of State Olcott to whom an appllca-
tion for the registration of the fob
was made by Herman Wise.
Accompanying the application was
check Of $25 for the payment of
the fees necessary for the registra-
ton Of the fob. The attorney gem
eral after review of the law holds
that there is nothing about the fob to
indicate the manufactures, and that
there is nothing about its manufac-
ture so original that It is entitled to
the distinction of being trade-marked.

AN OREGON
INVENTION
ON DISPLAY

One of the greatest inventions OF
the age, as well as one Of the most
practical, is now on display In the
show display window of the timing
shop of A. L. Fraser on State street.
It is the latest development Of the
Safety Automatic Gas Cut Off. In
simple language this is a device
which can be attached to any gas
burner and automatically cuts off the
gas If in any manner it should be
blown out while lighted or turned on
by accident. 1t is very simple and
positive in its action and is an alb
solute guarantee against the acci-
dental flow of gas from any burner
or pipe to which it Is attached. 1t
is a development and simplihcation
of the old Campbell automatic safety
gas burner, which people Of Salem
are familiar with and 1t Is manufac-
tured by this company in Portland.
The old burner was composed OF
many complicated parts and sold at
such a high price that it practically
prohibited people from buying IT..
The new burner has few parts and
retalls in the market for S1.5O.
This machine is an Oregon product
and is manufactured in Portland.
1t will be worth anybody's while to
go down to Mr. Fraser and let him
demonstrate the usefulness Of this
article improbable as it may seem,
it is ar absolute safety valve on all
gas burners. You simply cannot
blow the light out, or turn 1t on, un-
less the gas is burning, but what
this little device, which is about the
size Of dollar, will cut the flow off
absolutely.
Mr. Fraser is going to be the local
representative for the company and
have the handling of all their goods
in this vicinity They expect within
the near future to put this device on
gas stoves and water heaters. This
device attaches to gasoline stoves as
well as to the regular stoves and re-
duces insurance.

LIBRARY
PLANS HELD UP

Because of the jealousy of local
architect the plans for the Carnegie
Library are being held up in the city
of New York.
When the matter of a Carnegie
library building was first suggested,
the mayor appointed an architect to
draw the plans When the mayor
appointed the present library board
under the law it was invested with
the power of hiring an architect to
draw the plans and it secured the
services of an architect other than
the one employed by the mayor.
The plans were forwarded to Car
negie's private secretary some time
ago and there has been a delay of
weeks, members of the library board
started to inquire into the reason for
it and found out that the architect
originally hired by the mayor was
blocking the approval Of the present
plans.

that her husband had washed blood
from his clothing the morning after
the murder.
Since his arrest Wilson has been
extremely nervous and today re-
plying to questions put to him by
officers, finally confessed that he
killed the Coolies.
He said that week before the
murder he was walking down the
railroad track, when something
seemed to urge him to kill some one.
The murder mania grew and finally
impelled him to kill Coble and his
wife with an axe, as they slept in
their beds. He could give no other
explanation for his action, and told
Sheriff CASTOR that he must have
been insane, for he had no grievance
against the Rainier barber.
Wilson's confession will be repeat
ed this afternoon to a stenographer,
after which he will sign it in the
presence of a notary.

Relieving that the welfare of the
city demands the issuance Of bonds
for the reconstruction of the bridges
washed away by the spring floods,
Mayor Lachmund left the mayors
chair last evening at the meeting Of
. the council and took the floor to wage
battle for the resurrection of an or
dinance, amending the charter au-
thOrizing the council to issue the
bonds, but the fight was unavaling,
as the council stood against adoption
Of the measure by vote of to 5.
The mayor has been an ardent ad-
voCate of the proposition of issuing
bonds for the reconstruction of the
Cty's bridges. He advocated it soon
after taking office, and the question
was submitted to the people in the
spring through an election, and went
down to defeat. Satisfied that they
had erred in their judgment, the
mayor and Councilman Durbin again
prevailed upon the council to sub
nit the question to the people, and
the result was the same. 1t required
S a two-third vote to carry the election,
+ and after being twice defeated the
mayor conceived the idea of carrying
the issue through an amendment to
the charter authorizing the. council
to issue the bonds, and which at an
4 election would require but major
ity vote The ordinance came up for
the third reading at meeting of the
council week ago, and it went down
to defeat before that body.
Calls on COuncilmen to Explain.
Now 1t was this ordinance which
the mayor desired resurrected and
passed last evening, and in taking
the floor in its behalf he named the
councilman who had voted against it,
and asked them to explain. Before
taking his seat to listen to their ex-
plantations he dwelt upon the necessi-
ty of bridges in the city; argued
that unless the bridges washed away
by the spring floods were rebuilt
that the city would find itself con-
fFOnted by serious situation. He
then proceeded to consider the means
whereby they might be built-a bond
issue and direct taxation. The lat
ter, he continued, would bring the
taxes of the city up too high-would
throw the burden of rebuilding the
bridges upon the present generation
he believed in future generations as
SlStlng in paying for present i'm
prOvements, and this could only be
done by bond issue.
COunciImen Explain.
The reconsideration of the ques'
ton last night was brought about by
motion made by Councilman Ell
not He voted against the ordinance
Wnen 1t came up at meeting
week ago, and his motion was made
last evening upon the request of the
mayor.
councilman Elliott, in opposing
resubmission Of the question to the
people, stated that two elections hat

LOSES DAMAGE SUIT

Because of the rush of business,
the supreme court this morning devil
ated from the rule of handing down
decisions this afternoon, choosing 10
o'clock as the hour, and rendering
six opinions in all.
Secures Damages.
In the case of Merite G. Lewis
against the Portland Railway, Light
& Power company, appellant, in
which the plaintiff obtained a verdict
for personal injuries for the sum of
S35OO for being hurled against the
door knob of the car, while hanging
onto the straps, the lower court was
affirmed. The case is from Multno-
nah county.

would be but wasting the peoples
money, and he gave 1t as his opinion
that the money which would be
spent in holding another election had
better be used in repairing and re-
building the bridges which were dam
aged or washed away by the spring
floods.
The views of Elliott were the views
of Councilman Eldridge, and he re-
sisted a resubmission of the question
on that ground. Councilman Hatch
maintained that he might be in fa-
vor of a resubmission of the question
we're only taxpayers to vote at the
election, but when it was open to all
he was not in favor of it, because he
could see nothing but defeat staChg
him in the face.
Councilman Manning stated that
he had had enough of bridge bond
elections, and that he believed that
the time had come for the council TO
do what it could toward the repair
and reconstruction of the bridges
with the money which it had on
hand. After it had done its best
given evidence to the public that it
was in earnest, and what it could do
and it was in need of further funds
to proceed with the work, the mon
ey, he maintained, would be forth
coming from the people.
Councilman Moffit agreed with
Councilman Hatch on the subject,
and was against resubmission.
Mayor Comes Back at Them.
Coming back at them with clos
ing argument, the mayor challenged
the opposing councilmen to show
that the city was not in need Of
bridges, and the challenge went I'M
accepted. He then proceeded to say
that he was an advocate of perma-
nent improvements, and that he
would sign no warrants which would
operate as payment for the construc-
ton of wooden bridges in the city.
He believed in the construction of
bridges which would stand the test
of time-which would be as good
half a century from now as at the
present. He dwelt upon the argu-
ment advanced that the interest on
the bonds would be large, and main
tanned that it would not exceed $25OO
year for bond issue of $4,000 at
rate of five per cent
The question finally come to a
vote, and as at the meeting week
ago. went down to defeat, the vote
standing to 5.
