After the coffins were placed in wooden boxes a number of the ladies of this place called at Schank’s undertaking parlors and attached to the rough boxes many beautiful floral offerings. The wreckers have about finished clearing the wreckage from the tracks and placing it to one side to be hauled to ap-iron yards in this city. Railroad have made a partial investiga- man, by which two women were killed and many injured, and have fixed the blame upon Engineer Archie Ben Allen of the teachers’ excursion train and E. C. Hartwell, the station agent. With the latter it was an error in the use of the semaphore signals, and with the former it was & criminal blunder in running ahead of his time when he must have known that he was close to another train. This is the judgment of J. A. Fillmore, manager of the Southern Pacific Rail- road Company’s system. All day Monday the officlals of the road were calling for reports from thelr subordinates who were interested in or knew of the circum- stances attending the wre Mr. Fillmore, in discussing the sad accident, e nated the freight as regular,No. 245. ife sald the orders issued were that No. d when overtaken, and, according to cal- . this would occur at Ingomar, ten miles from where the wreck took he orders to the special excursion were that the train should keep out of ay of all regular trains. By the signal system of the line this could have @, for at almost any one of the stations additional orders could be given ed if there were any. According to the manager the regular, No. 26, fived at Newman two minutes ahead of time, and the engineer, seeing by the rul on the semaphore that there were no orders, the locomotive was stopped at e e L e o2 SRR Tor of tne semaphore s down at \When B ' 0 Se] ] and T e e o exposed. This was In condlton when the. resmlary Mo Su Was standing at the tank, and the station agent could not put up the red light and the extended arm while this train was there.

Allen was a < ing six minutes ahead of his time without having his engine Ltlnfi%‘:‘lt c:oor:tl"?oel That he reversed the lever and put on the air brakes to avert a collision when he saw the lantern ‘and the lights on the freight train is a fact, but that did not lessen the damage. The station operator was at fault for giving a ‘clear’ sig- nal when the regular freight was standing on the main track at the station.” Mr. Fillmore said that the freight train was composed of about forty cars and, with the exception of the man on the extreme end—he who ran down the track with the signal lantern—none of the crew knew of the seriousness of the collisien for several minutes. The engineer was first attracted to the occur- rence by a slight jar to the engine, for the train was so long that the shock was lost before it reached the front end.

SEATTLE, Wash., July 11.—The bat- tleship Jowa floated out of the dry dock at the Port Orchard naval station to- night. .She started out at 7:30 and by 8:20 was anchored in the sound. The event was witnessed by a large number of ex- cursionists from this city. While in the dock the Jowa was thoroughly cleaned and bilge keels were put on. an important discovery. The footprints | were followed along the trail into a dark, timbered canyon and were lost. Marks frequently halloed and wslted} for an answer, hearing only the echo | of his own voice. As he approached a rocky divide in the canyon he was |} startled by a roar from a huge pan-| + | ther, ivhich he quickly dispatched with | his rifle. He became fearful that this beast had perhaps devoured the girl, but, having found the panther’s den and kittens close by it, he was more hopeful for her safety. Men of every calling are mustered into the search, and although un- confirmed rumors come in from the mountains of the finding of the girl, none of them have proved authentic. prs bty A2 |CONVICT CLAIMS THAT 1 JOHN W.

Mueller, a wealthy brewer, has just returned from Manila. He was at the Philippines before Dewey’s victory. He makes a sensational statement, quoting Dewey, to the effect that Aguindldo and his men aided Dewey in running the fleet into harbor, in pursuance of a prear- ranged plan, the promises made Aguin- aldo coming from Washington. The promises never were kept, and that is one of the reasons for Aguinaldo’s bit- terness. Mueller is president of one of the biggest brewing companies in the Northwest. o High Price for Wool.
