Tho parly came to Oregon City In the machine, which belonged to Young, early In tho aftcriu.on. Sev eral hours were spent hero, and short-, ly after (! o'clock they started back to Damascus. It Is declared by person who saw Uie party that tho mnchlnn was going at a rato of more than thirty miles an hour when the accident occurred. Kiimmer says the speed w not more than fifteen miles an hour. Wit nesses of the accident say that the tnnrhlne and lis occupants wero al most obscured by the dust that was raised just before tho fatal plunge. Two Caught Under Car. 1 Paul Fisher, of (Hailstone, was tho first man lo reach itho scene of tho accident. Kummer, who had been thrown clear of tho wreck hnr regain-, ed his feet and was running about In a dazed condition.' The oilier two were pinned under tho heavy car. Fisher was soon Joined by Prry Rich ardson and Frank Sowen. of Clad slono, and 0. F. Dlmlck. of Oregon City. Judge Dlmlck, who v.ns In his automobile several hundred yards be-! hind the other machine, thinks that It was going at a rale of at least twenty-five miles an hour. Ho says ho was looking at the car when It dis appeared, and It was seve'il seconds; before ho realized that tho party had been precipitated Into the ditch. Tho wrecked automobile was rcmov. . ed from Young and Cnmm'ngs. The, former was dead, but Cummlngs ling-! ercd In an unconscious condition for ; ten or fifteen minutes. Dr. Strickland of this clly. nnd Dr. Walton were not I-; fled and hurried to the scene of the accident.

Coroner Wilson had the bodies re moved to the llolman undertaking es tablishment In this city, and will hold an Inquest at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs Ynune- was notified of her hus band's death, and will come to Ore gon City this morning. Sho has eight children. Mr. Young was one of the most prominent farmers In tho Da mascus neighborhood. Ho was well-to-do. Tho family of Mr. Cummlngs, who, had formerly been emnloved by the Speedwell garaRe In Portland, were , notified, nnd will take charge of the body today. I Kummer said that the accident wns : caused by tho steering gear having j worked loose. The front wheels, he I said, had not run truo for several min utes, nnd Young, who waa driving the i machine, hnd remarked about It being out of order. ! "We were going along at a rate or about fifteen miles an hour," Kum mer said, "when the front wheel rat , off the road. Young tried his best to get it hack. The wheel however, collapsed, and we were thrown into tho ditch. I don't know how I es- j caped. I was sitting on the lront seat j with Young, who was on ho side that ' careened. I wna thrown clear of the j wreck, nnd wns on my feet almost Immediately after I struck the ground. , I did not think at first thnt I was In-; jured. However. I am only slightly i bruised and cut."
