ACCIDENT CAUSED
BY STEEP GRADE
I'VE Cannot Build Fool Proof
Bridges, Even to Save Pa
chsoo,' z Says whitehouse.
(From Thursday Advertiser.)

(ffom Thursday AdNeftiser.)
81 brought a serious charge against
City Engineer whitehouse at the meet
ing Of the supervisors, and il should not
be treated as joke said Supervisor
Paeheco yesterday. ~ accused White
house Of Responsibility for the death of
the Japanese who was drowned last
week in the wahiawa reservoir, because
he has had the money to repair that
bridge and make it safe for the past
three or four months. Now that is a
serious charge. Either il is true and
Whitehouse is responsible, or il is not
true and am an ass.
The supervisor explains that the
board voted $1,000 last November to
repair the bridge, which amount is yet
unexpended.
What Was Done.
"The bridge has been plaearded as
unsafe for heavy loads ever since L
examined 1t last November and report
ed TO the board, 2 said Mr.. Whitehouse
last night, when asked for some expla-
nation Of the matter "The bridge
was built ten years ago, when the traf-
fc at Wahiawa was light, and il was
never intended for the heavy traffic
now using it. 1t is on the main road,
however, and we cannot close it 10 re.
build it. My plan is to rebuild by sec
tions, using the original plans, but sub
stituting heavier timbers. ] made rec
concentrations and estimates and the
board agreed TO them, but by the time
the ordinance had passed third read
ing the reservoir had filed and il was
impossible 70 go ahead as planned.
Cutting Away Grades.
"Work is now being done on the
cutting away Of the grades on each
end of the bridge, however, so that
such accidents as that Of Saturday EN-.
not recur. IL was not the fault Of the
bridge that the accident happened, but
the fault of the driver Of the machine,
who skidded onto the bridge from the
curve on the appronch, watch has d
steep down grade. Hardly any sort Of
guard rail could have prevented the
ear from Jumping the fridge. The Gar
struck the bridge at such q rate that
IL tore forty feet of the rail away.
The driver is kamaaina TO the road and
the dangerous condition of the trid2e,
ard should have known better than TO
have Travelled at the rate he did: We
cannot byild fool,proof bridges, not
even TO save Pacheco.
An Inspection of the bridge will be
made by soecial committee, headed
by Mayor Fern, today. . ...'

smooth game, the leaders of the s'army
of the unemployed'' have outwitted
the local authorities and police officers
who have boon trying TO drive them
from their camps in this county.
Apparently dispensing, the unem.
ployed ostensibly obeyed the orders of
the police and deputy sheriffs. How
ever, their leaders bought an acre of
land four miles north Of Sacramento,
paying $40 cash through Socialist
sales agent, the owner of the land
being unaware of the sale. When the
man whose land had been sold found
the ARMY moving in Co eneamp
upon IL he sent in riot call. The
army was mustered for action when
the sheriff arrived on the scene, and
that Official was Immediately con,
fronted with the contract of sale,
which he found apparently legal. He
holds that he is powerless TO eyict
the idle men and sympathizers are fur
nishing them with plenty of food.
They apparently intend to defy all
efforts to drive them from this Vi

STATE WINS POINT
Judge FIanneIIy of Independ-
enCe Holds Summons on
Gas Trust is Legal.
CUSTER CASE TO PROCEED
Big Philadelphia Concern Tries In
Vain to Dodge Responsibility in
Antitrust Suit.

Word was recently received at the
state house that Judge Flannelly at
independence had held as valid the
service obtained by the attorney gen.
eral upon the United Gas Improve
ment Company Of Pennsylvania.
Dawson had filed suit to GUST the
company from the state on the ground
that it had been operating in Kansas
without a charter. He also asked
that the company be fined $4,000
for violating the antitrust law.
The state contended that the U. G.
I. was doing business in the state
through two subsidiary companies,
the Kansas City Pipe Line Company
and the Wyandotte County Gas Com
pany. This was denied by the gas
people in the Montgomery county
court. Dawson obtained service
through the two subsidiary compan-
les, but the U. G. I. attorneys, deny
ing that the U. G. l. had been operat-
ing in the state. affirmed that service
On the subsidiary companies was not
good.
''The findings Of fact and, conclus-
ions of law made by Judge F1annelly
are based upon about carload of evil
dence and testimony submitted to him
a few weeks ago on the question Of
whether or not the United Gas Com
pany was doing business in Kansas
in such way that service upon sum-
mons upon the Wyandotte County
Gas Company as agent of the U. G. I.
would be binding" said Dawson.
THE decision holds that such service
is sufficient OF course all this
enormous volume of testimony will
be available now as evidence on the
main case, which is an ordinary suit
under the antitrust law, for custer,
injunction and civil penalties"
