TALKS IN PEOPLE'S FORUM
Tells Citizens He Needs Their Help
to Curb Council's Foolish Gen
erosity Is Xot a Joking
Matter, Says He.
. Before the People's Forum, last night.
Mayor Lane outlined his policy with re
gard to the vacation of streets In the In
terest of adjoining property owners with
out compensation to the city. He en
larged on the extent to which the prac
tice of giving away public property for
private use had been carried, and told his
audience that he had tried every method,
from threats to ridicule, without being
nble to break the Council of the expen
sive habit.
The Mayor placed before his auditors
as joint owners of the city streets, and
told them that while the Council laughed
at him, and the people did not. appear
deeply concerned, In the end the joke
would .be on the people and not on him
self. As an example of the evil done by the
Council In giving away public property,
the Mayor cited the case of Hull street,
a portion of which the Council, at its
last session, voted to vacate for the vee
of the Willamette Iron Works. In ex-
plaining his veto of this ordinance, the
Mayor said:
"There has been a wholesale giving
away of streets here in this city, for
which the city has received no re
turn. Some questions have been asked
me along these lines and I was re
quested to come here to speak tonight.
At lirst I thought I could not spare the
time, as it is just at the first of the
year, and there is a large amount of
technical work which must be done
just at this time. But I consider this
question one in which the whole city
should take an. Interest, and therefore
I decided to come and say a few words
In reference to the measure that was
passed at the last session of the City
Council.
"The time has come when the Mayor
of the City of Portland needs your
help. He has done all he can in your
interests. When I was on the stump,
before you elected me, I promised that
I would do my duty. If you liked
it it would be all right, and If you
didn't like it it would be all right, too
I would do my duty by the people
of Portland just the same.
No Blame for Company.
The company which asked for a deed
to some property and on whose re
quest action was taken at the last
session of the City Council, is the
last to be criticized. I would much
rather give this concern, the Willam
j ette Iron Works Company, a. deed to
property owned by the city than I
would to some Eastern corporation
that did not spend Its money here, and
had no material interest In the country.
The street asked for Is Hull street,
which is just below the stockyards.
The company wanted 20 feet on the
south side of the street. It said It
would take the 20 feet, and pave ten
feet of It. The owner of the property
next to the Willamette Iron Works
said he would also take 20 feet, but
that he would not pave his ten feet
on the part he would take. I suppose
he thought he wouldn't have to; that
he could get It without going to that
trouble.
"These people will spend their money
here, so it would be better to give the
property to them than to give it to
some Eastern capitalist who does not
have material interests here, or who
would spend his money outside the
state. But I considered the fact that
property in the neighborhood of this
tract is worth from J5000 to $10,000 a
lot. This property that we are speak
, ing of ropiesents about two lots. It
-belongs to the people, it belongs to
you, my friends. If this property were
given without remuneration it would
mean a donation to private interests of
between $10,000 and $20,000.
"Since I have been in Portland I have
seen property values go up very ma
terially, and I look for them to go as
high again In the next 30 years. If
these people need this property, let
. them go out into the city and purchase
its equivalent and give It to the city
for use as a park or children's play
ground. The city is in need of land for
parks, and next year we are going to
bond the city in order to provide funds
for the purchase of land for this pur
pose. "I could not, therefore, see the policy
or justice of giving away valuable land,
without any returns to the city what
ever. I, therefore, vetoed the ordi
nance. Can't Kick Fast Knough.
"I have done a great deal of kicking,
but the trouble seems to be that I can
not kick fast enough.
"A while bark we wanted some land for
the erection of a new fire engine house.
There was some land owned by the rail
road company which we thought was In
a good location, and would just about suit
us. Some others and myself went down
to the terminal yards. We told the rail
road people what we wanted. Their man
said, 'We will let you have land on Fifth
street for five years. You build on . that
property and If at the end of five years
you vacate the property we will buy the
building of you, and you will have rent
free. If you stay on the ground for ten
years we will take the 'building.' I told
him that I would not do that as I didn't
want to build on leased ground. That
was the best he would do.
"I asked him why he could not give us
a deed to the land. He replied that the
land was all under bonds, and that it
would be increasing the indebtedness of
the company if he should do it. 'But,'
said I. 'the city was under bonds when it
deeded you this property.'
"I saw it was useless to argue the case
further, so I set to work looking into
the records of the deeds to the property
owned by the railroad people, and I
found I had them. They had built be
yond the ground that had been deeded
to them by the city. So I went down and
told them again that they had a choice
piece of property at Third and Ullsan
streets that I wanted, that If they didn't
give it to the city I would come down
with a crew of firemen and others, and
tear out the portion of their property
which was outside the lines of the prop
erty which had been deeded to them.
"This would have affected a portion of
their switches. They told me to go ahead,
so the next day I eent a surveyor down
to mark off the land, as I didn't want to
lay myself liable by getting over the
lino an Inch or two. The result was that
the city obtained a deed to the land, and
this is te first time I have ever seen it
work this way. It has always been the
other way.
'There has been enough property deed

Over Port.
TANGIBR. Morocco, Dee. 30. It Is cur
rently reported here that the German
flag is about to be hoisted on Raisuli's
stronghold at Zlnal. It is said to be the
bandit's intention to endeavor to embroil
the powers in the meantime by Joining
forces with the pretender. .
On the other hand, it is stated that
Zlnal has been sold to a Herman com
mercial firm, which intends to enter into
possession when Raisuli retires.
When he learned of his expulsion from
Morocco, Raisuli sent his family and
fortune to the inaccessible mountain
house headquarters of the Beni Arros

FIVE MEN GROUND TO BITS
i'relght Train Wrecked in California
and Tramps Killed.
SACRAMENTO. Cat. Dec. . 30. Five
men, all unknown, were killed this morn
ing in a freight wreck at Kloriston Sta
tion, a short distance beyond Truckee.
A broken truck on one of the boxcars
caused the wreck and four cars went into
the ditch. The track was torn up for 50
feet and it required the services of the
wrecker from Truckee to clear the road
before the line was open for traffic.
The five men who were killed were
"beating" their way on- the train from
Nevada into this state and when the
smashup occurred they were ground to
pieces beneath the wheels and the wreck
age. The groans of one of the men. who
was mortally Injured, attracted the at
tention of the train crew to where he
lay pinioned down by pieces of a car and
one of the wheels. He died before he
could be taken from the wreck and his
name was not learned.
Vhen the wrecker arrived from
Truckee, four other bodies were found
beneath the wreckage, ground to pieces.
The bodies of the five men killed were
taken to Truckee where the Coroner will
hold an Inquest tomorrow. In the re
port received in this city today it was
stated that all of the men were tramps
and not working men.
D0WIEITES RAVE AT V0LIVA
Denounced as Devil in Dramatic
Scene at Zion Tabernacle.
CHICAGO, ' Dec. 30. Wilbur Glenn
Voliva, general overseer of Zion City, was
denounced as "Judas Iscariot." "devil"
and "robber" by followers of John Alex
ander Dowie during a meeting attended
by 2500 persons in Zion Tabernacle here
tonight. The first interruption, which al
most precipitated a panic in the audience,
occurred when Voliva made a sarcastic
allusion to Dowie.
"Shut up," ordered a Dowielte In the
audience, "you're only a dog."
Two ushers seized the accuser by the
throat in an effort to stifle his voice.
Gurgling through hands clasped over his
mouth, the disturber continued:
"Don't you mention John Alexander
Dowie's name again, you Judas Iscariot,
for he picked you out and made half a
man of you the rest is devil."
Soon after the disturber was silenced,
an outburst followed Voliva's declaration
that he would distribute pamphlets ex
posing the various Masonic oaths. A
third dramatic sensation occurred when
Voliva walked to the front of the plat
form and asked of the followers of Dowie
to shake hands with him. The latter re
fused, declaring that he would not shake
-hands with the devil.

NEW YORK. Dec. 30. Dr. A. McDano
Hamilton, the alienist, returned from a
trip to Iondon on the steamship Caronla
today. Speaking of Harry K. Thaw, who
is soon to be tried for the murder of
Stanford White, Dr. Hamilton, who some
time ago examined Thaw, said:
"Thaw la in a dangerous predicament.
It is the first time in the history of our
country that a lunatic wants to try hia
own case. In my opinion Thaw Is worse
than Czolgosz. I think that District At
torney Jerome would accept a plea of in
sanity." IJr. Hamilton said he had met Thaw's
half brother in London, and he under
stood that all of the prisoner's brothers
an.d sisters were in favor of his being
taken care of.

The most serious effect of the "blue"

to order out the usual gangs to clean
the streets In the business district, Mar

Today Mr. Cummlngs said he would not
expose his men to the liability of prose

streets will start the week full of dirt.
All these things 'came about as the re

John G. Price Confesses Mur
der of Mrs. Lewis.
BREAKS OFF GHASTLY TALE
Was Surprised by His Victim While
Attempting to Rob Lewis
Home In Guise of
Workman.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 30 John (i.
Price, who has been under arrest in this
city since December 8, has confessed that
he murdered Mrs. Maurice Lewis at 2103
North Eleventh street on the afternoon
of September 10. In a written statement
Price says that with a companion, whose
name he refuses to give, he went to the
Lewis home for the purpose of robbery.
They represented themselves to be
plumbers.
While his companion was searching the
upstairs room. Price says, Mrs. Lewis
caught him. He continues: "There was a
struggle. I caught Mrs. Lewis to keep
her from screaming, and a handkerchief
was thrust Into her mouth. I then drew
from my pocket a lance . which I had
previously stolen from a physician's
office"
At this point Price's statement ends
abruptly with the following: "My God.
I can't write it. I killed her. I alone am
guilty."
Mrs. Lewis body was found in a closet.
She had been stabbed through the neck
with a sharp instrument.
The prisoner is 34 years of age. In 1S99
he was tried on a charge of forgery and
larceny. He was acquitted on the ground"
of Insanity and sent to an asylum. Later
he underwent treatment for the cigarette
and drug habit.
THROUGH F0GT0 DEATH
(Continued From First Page.)
Is believed that nearly all the victims
were killed outright or died within a
few minutes after the accident. Of the
dead bodies some were burled beneath
debris, with the result that they were
recovered with difficulty.
Dr. E. O. Bolt, one of the most prom
inent physicians of Washington, and
his sons, Edwin, 7 years of age, and
Sinclair, aged F. wore passengers on
the train. Edwin was killed and the
father and the other son are missing.
It is feared they are in the list of
unidentified dead.
A most remarkable escape was that
of Dr. Parker, of this city. It was said
he was the only man among the pas
sengers who escaped without a scratch.
He was in the smoking car asleep at
the time of the accident.
District Commissioners West and
MacFarland, Major Sylvester, Chief of
Police, and Coroner Nevitt hurried to
the scene of the wreck as soon as they
heard of the accident. It was an
nounced by the Coroner that an inquest
would be called tomorrow morning,
which will be adjourned until Janu
ary 2. It will be conducted here, as
Terra Cotta is within the District of
Columbia.
Terra Cotta is a station about three
miles distant from the city boundaries.
The nearest point from which aid of any
kind could be summoned was Brookland,
a small suburban town a mile from the
scene of the wreck. The main communi
cation with Terra Cotta, was by walk
ing along the track or by a roundabout
country road, which, because of recent
rains, was in bad condition. Ambulances,
patrol wagons and Are engines were
hastily summoned from Brookland and
Washington, but It was with great dif
ficulty that they were able to reach the
place.
Survivors Tell of Scene.
It was impossible at first to determine
the exact extent of the catastrophe.
Those passengers in the forward coach
who were but slightly bruised heard the
groans of the dying and wounded and
did what- they could to give aid. A num
ber of the passengers started to walk
to Brookland, three-quarters of a mile
away. The moment the first of the sur
vivors reached Brookland a general call
was sent out for doctors and ambulances.

and were taken to the scene in auto

One member of the crew of the passen
ger train, who hobbled into a drugstore
a half hour after the accident, said:
"I cannot tell how many people were
killed. It was awful. I do not even
know just how It happened. The freight
engine went through the entire train
and it seems to me as if every one was
killed in the last coach and many in the
first. The freight engine must have run
past a red target. I cannot explain the
accident In any other way."
District Attorney Baker, who was in
jured and who walked a mile and a
quarter to a drugstore. In describing his
experience to a representative of the
Associated Press, said:
"I was in the second car from the
end, coming from my home in German
town. I was four seats from the end of
the car, and just as the train left Terra
Cotta station the crash came. We were
carried in the wreckage for some dis
tance. I do not know how I got out of
the wreckage."
Rolled Down Embankment.
Frank P. Bodlitz. a newspaper man of
Frederick, who was slightly Injured, said:
"I was in the car next to the smoker
talking with a gentleman and his wife
from Detroit. We were all standing up,
the car being crowded. Suddenly we
heard an awful noise and a crash. . Wo
men began screaming and the next thing
I knew I found myself rolling down an
embankment, where someone picked me
up and I found that I was not badly
hurt.
"It was Impossible to describe the scene.
Women and children were running about
crying for their parents, and mothers and
fathers were rushing around trying to
find their children. The dead and Injured
were strewn along the track for a mile."
Killed While Awaiting Train.
One of the worst features of the catas
trophe was enacted at the station of
Terra Cotta. Here a number of passen
gers were waiting to take the train into
the city when the collision occurred. Of
these only two escaped. The rest were
either killed by being thrown under the
train or injured by flying pieces of wreck
age. George H. Burgess, a brother of Mrs.
Barnes, had just put Mrs. Barnes and
her daughter on the train when the wreck
occurred and was one of the first to join
in the rescue work. His sister and niece
were among the first to be found in the
wreckage.
It was reported that Senator Redfleld
Proctor, of Vermont, was among the
killed, but this was Incorrect. He was
not injured.
ELECTRIC -CAR RUNS AWAY

CINCINNATI, O.. Dec. 30.-At least 30
persons were injured, one of whom has

electric car on the Warsaw avenue hill
in this city today. The emergency brake
failed to work and the car, after running
a distance of five blocks, struck a tele
graph pole and turned turtle. The pas
sengers were thrown in a heap beside a
bank.
Hiram Leister, a passenger, by operat

ably prevented a much worse accident,
as his action reduced the speed of the
car materially.

Young Nephew and Heir to Dead
Man's Fortune Is Questioned,
but Is Cleared of Suspicion
and Released.
KANSAS CITT, Mo., Dec. 30. Thomas
Fanning, aged 80 years, a wealthy property-owner,
was murdered yesterday at
his home on Olive street In this city.
The head had been horribly hacked with
a hatchet. The crime was reported to
the police today by William Flannagan,
the murdered man's young nephew. Young
Flannagan, who is the dead man's heir,
was held for an investigation.
Robbery was not the motive of the
crime, as $2100 was found by the police
In a chest In the room where the body
was lying. In the old man's pockets were
a gold watch, $13 in money and a depo-slt
slip showing that he had deposited $18,000
in a local bank on December 5.
William Flannagan, the nephew, was
released after being questioned by Chief
of Police Hayes. He told a straight story
and the police have no evidence upon
which they feel Justified in holding him.
It was learned tonight that the dead
man had another heir,, a nephew who
lives in Troy, N. T.
Thomas Flannagan had lived here 40
years and until he retired from active
