tai railroads were denied authority by
the interstate commerce commission to
reduce rates on traffic originating east
of the Rocky mountains. or destined
therefor, to or from Pacific coast ter

water competition. The commission
held that the amended fourth section
of the commerce act made 1t manda-

tariff changes which did not assure
reasonably compensatory rates to the
carriers.
The railroads, the commission said,
had failed to prove that the rates pro-

proposed rate change violation OF

present rates to and from the Pacific
coast unchanged.

UNCLE Lew WILMOT
HAS PASSED AWAY

Friends in Athena of Mr.. and Mrs.
l.. P. Wilmot, of Long Beach, CAL
ifornia, were shocked and grieved,
this week to hear of the death of
Mr.. Wilmot, which occurred sudden
ly at that place on November 10, Of
heart failure. Although well along in
the eighties. Uncle Lew, as he was
affectionately called, was in the best
of health and had scarcely suffered
a days sickness in all of his active
life. The end came as he would have
undoubtedly desired in the full func-
tioning of all his faculties. Just on
the point of finishing book which
he was reading, he remarked; Il am
nearly through" and turning the
book on the table, laid back his head
on the chair in which he sat and ex-
pired. He was buried at Long Beach,
with Christian Science services. Be-
sides his widow, who is well known
and loved by many in this county,
formerly as "Aunt Lizzie" Mansfield,
he leaves several daughters who live
in Idaho. children of his first mar
riage.
L. P. Wilmot was prominently iden-
titled with the early history Of Ida
no, and served under General Howard
in the Indian wars of 1877 and '78.
He was a man Of intrepid courage,
and his stories of pioneer days were
of wonderful interest. Some years
ago he wrote and published history
of the Indian wars, in which he was
an active participant.
While living in Athena, with his
wife, whom he married here, he
made several trips to Long Beach,
driving his own car, and later bought
a home and settled in the California
city.

1000 LIVES LOST IN
CHILEAN EARTHQUAKE
Many thousands Left Hungry
and Homeless BY Tremblor
and Tidal Waves.

Santiago, Chile.--With re-establish-
ment Of communications, Chile,s earth
quake catastrophe Saturday has been
revealed in even greater magnitude
than first reports indicated.
It is estimated that at least 1000
were killed and many thousands left
In distress, needing food and shelter.
In addition to heavy casualties of
dead and injured at Copiapo and
Coquimbo, it was reported that 500
were killed at vallenar and the sur
rounding district. il
1t was earthquake and tidal wave
combined that accounted for the vast
destruction in the provinces Of Anto-
fagasta, Atacama and Coquimbo. The
movement of the ocean was described
as phenomenal 1t gave evidence ofsa
terrific disturbance in the bed Of the
Pacific itself. There must have been
such tearing at the bottom Of the
sea that immense quantities Of water
mendous recession Of the waters along
were sucked through, causing q tre-
the Chilean coast.
Several times the ocean swept out
ward and came back in the shape Of
great wave, flooding the seaports
and in some instances sweeping away
the water front. The violent effects Of
the tidal waves were felt from Anto-
fagasta on the north to valdivia on the
south, covering about is degrees Of
latitude, or more than 1900 miles.

Mrs. Ann Taylor
Called BY Death

After a lingering illness of many
months duration, Mrs. Ann Taylor
passed away this morning at hel
home on Main street, at 6 o'clock
November II, 1922. The funeral will
be held Sunday afternoon at two o.
clock at the Christian church, Of
which she has been a life long mem.
Der, and will be conducted by the pas
tor, F. E. Russell.
The deceased was the widow Of the
late David Taylor, who preceded her
on March %, 1920. She leaves one
son, w. R. Taylor, chief Of police Of
Pendleton; three grandchildren:
Sheldon d. Taylor Of Athena, Mrs.
Edna Clore of Vale, and Mrs. Lucille
Yenney of Walla Walla, and four
great grandchildren. Three children
have preceded her in death, one III
infancy; daughter Of four years,
and Sheriff Tillman D. Taylor who
was killed on July Is, 1920. She also
leaves four brothers and one sister
as follows: j. N. B. Gerking Of Tuni-
alo, Oregon; B. F. Gerking Of Hood
River; Sam !. Gerking Of The Dalles;
M. P. Gerking of John Day and Mrs.
Angie Junkins Of Portland.
.
At the time of her passing, she
lacked just days of being rs years
old, being born on November 25, 1S47
at Terre Haute, Indiana.
She crossed the plains with her
family in 1862. settling in HowelPs
Prairie near Silverton, Oregon. She
was married to David Taylor soon
afterward and in 1868 they moved to
Umatilla county and took up the
place on Wild Horse creek, known as
the WilIaby place, and later moved
to Pendleton, where Mr.. Taylor ser
we'd as assessor and deputy Sheriff.
They moved to the farm west Of
Athena, then in 1890 built the town
residence, where they resided until
Mr.. Taylor's death.
Few people have lived in this COM
munity whose record for charity and
benevolence would exceed that Of
Aunt Ann Taylor. In the pioneer
days, and up to the time of her last
sickness, her one thought was for the
welfare of others. Besides her own
family, she mothered sixteen other
children, and was ever found at the
bedside of the sick and afflicted.
Her place in the community has been
vacant during her long. illness, and
now she has gone to her rest.
