FIRE ENGINE ON WAY.

Word was received by Mayor Sleeves
today that the new automobile pumping
engine for the Salem fire department
had been shipped from the American
La France company at Elmira, New
York, and should reach this city by
June 6. The installation of the new
auto engine will permit the selling of
two teams of horses now used by the
fire department, and the Ferry street
station will be closed. There will be
no reduction of the force of firemen
and the addition of the auto pumper is
expected to increase the fire protec-
tion of the city.
The engine will be kept at the fire
station in the city hall and all of the
city firemen will be qaartered together.
The new engine will be able to make
the run to the suburbs faster than the
old fire teams, even if the fire were
in the district of the Ferry street sta
tion. The old steam -agines will be
kept in repair to use for emergencies,
as the new engine is equipped to tow
the steam engines should additional
pumping facilities be necessary.

Huerta's government was reported here
today in so diapidated condition that
news Of its collapse was expected at
any minute.
In official circles, however, nobody
could be found who would discuss the
situation. President Wilson had or
dered those who have hitherto dis
pensed news to remain absolutely silent.
Secretary of State Bryan was positive
ly sphynxlike. ~
The presidents order gagging his
subOrdinates was tho result of the
criticism of the administration by pub
lie men who declared IL had almost
openly espoused the Mexican rebels
cause. For the criticism itself it was
said the chief executive did not care
so much, but he feared that it would
embarrass the mediation negotiations at
Niagara Falls. This he was determined
to prevent.
State Officials Relieved.
There was an air of relief which state
department officials could not hide at
confirmation Of the news that John r.
Silliman, United States consul at Sal
tillo, was safe at last with the Brafzil-
ian minister in Mexico City. 1t was
said indeed that tho Huertistas seized
the cOnsul's papers, including state
department code book but the general
understanding was that Secretary
Bryan would make no further represen-
tatiOns.

SAN Francisco, May Exchanging
that Patrick Calhoun, former president
of the United Railroads, appropriated
more than 81 100000 of the company 3
money with which to finance private
enterprises, and characterizing the
transaction as "loot and fraud upon
the public and upon the bond and note
holders Of the company" the state
railroad commission today handed down
sensational decision scoring Calhoun
and the directors who acquiesced in the
transaction in seathing terms.
The revelation was made following
investigation in connection with the
application Of the company to borrow
money with which to buy. new cars
The probe showed that the company
should have had money available for
this purpose.
That the company's chance Of re-
gaining the money taken by Calhoun
is practically nil is shown by the fac,
that President jesse Lilienthal, success
sor to Calhoun as president of the
United Railroads, forced Calhoun tC

ELLIOT, OF TWIN FALLS

That the election of o. NJ. Elliott to
the superintendency of the Salem
schools is considered an irreparable
loss to the citizens Of Twin Falls,
Idaho, where he recently held the posi-
tion of superintendent, is the state
ment of j, L. Daube, resident of

ital journal office this morning. Mr..
Daube says the Tgwin Falls people have
found Mr.. Elliott TO be thoroughly
competent superintendent and n SUI
perior educator, and that while it is
likely that his successor in that city
will be a capable man, the people are
confident that they will never secure
better man in the position that was
Mr.. Elliott's, both personally and as
an educator
The Salem school board is to be con
graduated upon then selection, says
Mr.. Daube, and while the Twin Falls
people regret to lost Mr.. Elliott, he
carries the best wishes of the entire

Seattle Electric company, and the pas
sengers of the rival lines waved and
jeered at each other freely.
Twelve spacious, modern ears have
been purchased and as many as are
needed will be operated today.
The second division, the Lake Burien
line, will be in operation in about a
week.
The city is also attempting to gain
control Of the Seattle, Renton &
