Prevents Golf Tournament.
Owing to the fact that half Of the
links Of the Country club were under
water today as the result of the food
in Cherry creek last night, it was con-
sidered impossible this morning that
the western Golf association tourna-
ment could be held there today. Plans
for holding the tournament at the Colo
RADIO Golf association links near Golden
We're discussed. Frank L. Woodward,
president of the club early this morn.
ing said:
e'It may be possible that we shall
have to hold the first few days play at
temporary links. If conditions pre-
clude play altogether we may hold the
tournament on the Colorado Golf as
ISOLATION links near Golden
One hundred and eighty players
were here ready to begin play. At
midnight the water covered the links,
racing in torrents through the lower
end of the course, washing away
trees and shrubbery and Aasaesits OF
debris.

Questioned as to his opinion as to
the cause Of the wreck, Grain placed
the blame on the fog. He insisted that
the operator at HinsdaIe should have
known If No. had stopped within the

the operator for giving the clear track

In statement issued by P. 8.
Eustis, passenger traffic manager Of
the c., B. & O., after receiving reports
from those at the scene Of the acct
dent, the blame is placed upon either
Bronson. the engineer who lost his
life, or Woodruff, the flagman.
Reports that reached Coroner Hoff-
man that the block system was not

railroad men, but caused Mr.. Hoffman

company are that Woodruff failed to
protect his train properly by warning
the oncoming train after his own cars
had stopped or that Bronson was
responsible for missing the stop sig
nal at the proper time.
Exonerates Tower Operator.
The statement of Mr.. Eustis is as
follows:
1T was very foggy morning, and,
while the block signals were properly
handled by the operator, the accident
was due to the fact that the engineer
of train No. ran by the signal set
for stop at Western Springs and stop.
ped his train about $50 feet east
thereof. The next block to the west be-
ing thus cleared, train No. followed
and the engineer of this train likewise
ran by the signal at Western Springs
which was still set for stop, and struck
the rear Of No. 2, which was standing
still. there being an interval of about
nine minutes between the two trains
passing the block signal tower.

CUBAN rebels Will
NOT RISK A battle
THEY WILL TAKE TO THE BRUSH
AND PAY MORE ATTENTION
TO AMBUSCADES.

WASHINGTON, May 30.-Although
the arrival Of General Montegu at San
tiago and his assumption of the SUI
preme command of the Cuban mill
tary forces in Oriente was expected
in Havana to mark the beginning of
a movement i'm combined force against
the rebels under General Estinoz, thu
reports to the state department to-
day were quite peaceful. From their
knowledge Of the campaign methods
Of the rebel leaders, state department
officials do not anticipate anything in
the nature Of general engagement
but believe the rebels will avoid any
such test of strength with their raw
and half-armed natives. Instead, they
are expected to break up into small
squads and take to the bush, which,
Of course, would be most unwelcome
to foreigners, increasing the danger
to American owned plantations, espe-
cially as to the irresponsible guerillas.
In the newly enacted neutrality
laws, Cuba may have applied the same
construction as to the admission Of
American arms and ammunition that
has been employed in the case of the
Mexican insurrection. II is true that
in a strict construction Of the law. only
American arms and munitions Of war
can be excluded from Cuba. But as
the enforcement Of even that much Of
the act would involve the establish
ment of a close Gordon of United
States naval small craft around the
eastern end Of Cuba it would operate
to make difficult such arms and am
munitions to reach the rebels even
from San Domingo or Hayti or ST.
Thomas, or any Of the adjacent places,

Comparatively few people in Tulsa
have ever visited the Barnsdall OF
company property in the Usage. four
miles north OF town. A visit to this
camp will be enjoyed by anyone who
cares to see a well-equipped lease on
a large scale. There are some 63 wells
on the property, with, good, substan-
tial and comfortable homes for the
men, workshops, stables. gardens. and
la healtful. happy lot of people. Mr.
Watt Young ST., who has charge OF
the property Is justly proud Of the
physical condition of everything per-
tanning to the lease, and while no
extravaganza Of any sort is in eyi-
dcnce, the condition Of things out
there show the result Of his good iudg-
ment. The trip Is well worth max

SPRINKLE WITH OIL.

The board of public works recog-
nizes the fact that sprinkiing with
water is a failure and encouraging
the use of oil instead 1t should be
encouraged by the people of Ham
mond so that it would be warranted
in sprinkling every city street with
oil
1t Is well known fact that on a
hot summer day streets that have
been sprinkIed with water are as
dusty in two hours as they were be-
fore the sprinkling wagon passed by.
1t is different with oil. One
sprinkling effectually lays the dust
for weeks at time. The oil helps to
preserve the pavement, instead of de-
|stroying it as water does, and IT
positively lars the dust
The only place where water can
be effectually used is on asphalt
streets where it is used In heavy
streams to completely flush and wash
the payements. And even then in a
| few days che pavements are as dusty
as ever
1t is well known fact that the
sprinkling of city streets with waite,
has been a failure in the business
districts of the city. In a few hour.
the streets were as duty as ever
