OF the Union Pacific this week than in

for the past two weeks the line of idle
engines has been diminished, until the
local supply is nearly entirely in the

New engine crews and train crews
have been put on to meet the spurt

the Panama canal slide, which him

are scarcely moving at all, farmers
holding their wheat tenaciously.
With the present sharp increase In
business coming on before concerted

1000 BuIgars Killed IN Bembardment.

London.-The bombardment of De
deagach caused the death of ten civil
ians and more than a thousand sol.
diers, and large number of soldiers
were wounded, says a dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph company from
Athens.
A large proportion Of the military
casualties, the correspondent adds,
were in the barracks which housed
the Fortieth Bulgarian regiment. The
barracks were crowded with soldiers,
who were preparing for their meal,
when the bombardment was opened
at / O'Clock with accurately aimed
shells, which demolished the barracks,
burying the occupants In the ruins.
Troops engaged in digging trenches
around the town also sustained heavy
losses.
Fires caused by the exploding shells
destroyed the railway station and sur
rounding buildings, doing enormous
damage. It is said that the entire loss
from the bombardment, which lasted
four hours, will be several million
pounds.
The correspondent says the bonn
bardment was directed by aeroplanes.

TELEPHONE CARRIES
VOICE ACROSS ATLANTIC OCEAN

New York.--Arlington, Va, talked
by wireless telephone with Paris,
France, Saturday. Honolulu also
heard the operator talking from Ar
lington.
Announcement that the human voice
had been successfully projected across
the Atlantic was made on behalf Of
John ]. Carly, chief engineer Of the
American Telephone G Telegraph
company, at the company's offices
here. Later Mr.. Carly telephoned
from Chicago. confirming the an.
nouncement.
To B. B. Webb, a telephone engineer
fell the honor of being the first man
to span with his voice the space be-
tween the old world and the new. Sit
ting in the powerful wireless plant Of
the navy at Arlington, Va, Mr.. Webb,
shortly after midnight, asked the wire.
less telegraph operator to signal Elf
fel tower in Paris.
The wireless snapped out the signal
and soon there came back response.
Awaiting word from Mr.. Webb at
the Paris end Of the wireless radiation
were H. e. Shreeve and A. M. Curtis,
other engineers, and a group OF
French officers, listening with espe-
cially designed apparatus.
In Honolulu, 1900 miles from Arling-
ton, Mr.. Espencbied, another tele-
phone engineer at the Pearl Hsrbor
navy yard, also was waiting.
Webb, at Arlington, had transmit.
ting instrument, but no receiving ap-
paratus. He knew, therefore, that he
would have to wait for the cable to
confirm the success or failure of the
experiments.
Hello! Shreeve,". he shouted into
the mouthpiece. HELD! Shreeve."
He then began to count: zone, two,
three, four; one, two, three, four.
Goodbye"
When the expected message came
1t was addressed to the company here,
and said that Webb's "Hellos" and
"Goodbyes', had been distinctly heard
by the engineers and French army Of
ficers in Paris, and that portions OF
his test figures had also been picked
up. At about the same time there
came a message from Honolulu, say.
ing that Webb's talk had been under
stood in full by the receiving engineer
there, and that even the voice had
been recognized as Webb's.

THIRTEEN DEAD, EIGHT HURT
IN PAPER BOX FACTORY FIRE

/ Pittsburg. g.-Thirteen persons were
killed and eight injured by fire in
four-story building, the upper floors
OF which were occupied by the Union
Paper Box company, on the north
side, here, Wednesday afternoon. OF
the dead all were young women en-
ployed by the company except one.
Mayor Joseph G. Armstrong at once
ordered that the police, city council
and the coroner make thorough inves.
tigation of the fire.
The flames started In a pile Of straw
in the rear of the feed store of James
Brown & Co., on the first floor of the
building. William G. Kimbel, general
manager of the box factory, at once
went to the third and fourth floors
and warned the girls employed there.
The flames gained headway SO rapid
ly, however, that escape by means of
stairways and fire escapes was soon
cut off. Some of the girls attempted
to go to the dressing-room for their
hats and there, huddled on the floor,
firemen found majority Of the
bodies.
Joseph L. Bash and z. j. Seagle, en-
ployed on the second floor Of the
building, were about to jump, when
they were attracted by the screams
OF girls in the window above. The
men told the girls to jump. One by
one, as the girls leaped, Bash and Sea-
gle caught them. lowered them as far
as they could and let them drop to
the sidewalk.
c. r. Carlisle, driver of transfer
wagon, drove his wagon into an alley
in the rear Of the building and threw
up a rope to girls in window above. |
Making one end fast, they slid down |
the rope to safety.
Margaret Steigerwald, aged II, who |
was injured by jumping from a third. |
floor window, said she and five other
girls were trapped In the building
when somebody closed door at the
head Of the stairway on the second
floor.
One of the heroes of the fire was
Peter Vallon, who is among the dead.
When the fire was discovered he was
in the building. He CROPPED
his way to the street, where he heard
the girls calling for help from the up
per story. Tying handkerchief about
his mouth, he rushed into the build
ing. Six times Vallon staggered to
the street with the unconscious form
Of a girl in his arms. When he failed
70 appear the seventh time, however,
Iiremen began search and found his
body on the second floor. Near him
lay the body Of young girl, whom he L
evidently had tried to rescue when
overcome by smoke.

Albany.-When a light wind Satur.
day blew down 70 peach trees on the
farm of A. w. Martin, seven miles east
Of Albany, he discovered that all had
been sawed more than half through
near the base Of the trunk. Only four
trees in the whole 4-year-old orchard
were not sawed. The trees were just
coming into bearing, many had yielded
a light crop this year, and next year
would have been in full bearing. Mar
tin had depended upon these trees to
yield money to pay off mortgage on
