THE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, JULY 6, 1910. MOTORISTS BUCK FROM TILLAMOOK Members of Portland Automo bile Club Have Fine Time on Trip to Seashore. FIGHT RETURNS ARE NOVEL Few Mishaps Mar Excursion of Portland Folks, and They Enjoy Themselves Hugely as Guests of Promoters of Resort. Dust begrimed, sunburned, tired but Bmiling, 100 motorists of the Portland Automobile Club returned last night from the annual club run. Four days were spent, the club men and their quests leaving here last Saturday morning at 7:30 o'clock in 21 machines. At 5:30 o'clock Saturday evening Tilla mook iCty was readied, though two stops were made en route, consuming two and a half hours, the distance of 112 miles by wagon road being easily negotiated. The first stop was at McMinnville, where the leading members of the party were form ally placed under arrest in a charge of speeding, and sentenced to be entertained a short time, jointly by the Commercial Club and the Civic Improvement Associa tion, the latter a woman's organization. Sandwiches and coffee were served. Mc Minnville was reached at 9:30 o'clock in the morning. The next stop waa at Dolph, just inside the Tillamook County ine, where luncheon was served. lew Acclcents Mar. The course of the trip both ways was marked by but few accidents for so large an excursion. On the Trip down the machine of Thomas West, through the Stripping of its gear, was put out of com mission. By distributing the members of his party around in the other cars1, however, the trip was continued. Primarily the trip was made ut the In stance of the T. B. Potter Realty Com pany, promoters of Bayocean Park, the new Summer resort, and the autoists were, the guests of the company through out the trip. oN' detail of entertainment was overlooked. Members of the party who returned last night say It was the greatest' trip in the history of the local club. This opinion was unanimously ex pressed. Celebration Is Held. Three nights and two days were spent at Bayocean. Monday, the Fourth, was e day of intense excitement. A great cele bration had been planned and Tillamook City and the three or four smaller towns on Tillamook Bay emptied their popula tion onto the peninsula known as Bay Ocean, to participate. Arrangements were made to receive tiews of the Jeffries-Johnson fight in per haps the oddest manner anywhere in the country. This was the arrangment: There being no telephone at Bayocean or telegraphic equipment, it was necessary to get the news from Bay City, just across the bay, which has communication with the outside world through a single wire telephone.' It was agreed 6hould Jeffries win the great American flag hoisted on the beach in frontof the town chould "be hoisted higher still ' and if Johnson should win it was to be lowered at half-mast. Crowds Watch Flag. The crowds at Bayocean looked through their glasses across the bay. anxiously watching for some movement of the flag up or down. Suddenly there was a cry: "The flag is going down; Johnson wins." "Johnson wins." was the chorus. Gloom settled over the camp imme diately, but there were those who re fused to believe the news until given It more authoritively. This came on '.he next boat from Tillamook City and Intensified the gloom for a time. . It is estimated the entertainment of the Automobile Club by the Potter Company must have cost in the neigh borhood of $3000. About 40 handsome, well-built tents had been provided and nothing was wanting in the way of eatables. Monday night a fireworks display was given, which compared favorably vith an original Pain's display. Danc ing, surfbathing, baseball, aquatic sports 'of various kinds and other amusements were provided. Moore Heads First Party. C. H. Moore, commercial manager of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Com pany; A. Iliidge. Mrs. "William King and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Jenning, were the first to arrive in Portland last night. They left Bay Ocear Monday night, in order to get an early start from Tilla mook yesterday morning. The party left Tillamook at 8 o'clock and arrived in Portland at 5 P. M., making the trip in nine hours, which included a stop of one hour at Dolph for lunch and a half hour at McMinnville, for refreshments. W. J. Clemens, vice-president of the Portland Auiomobile Club, tried out his new machine and made the return trip In five hours and 45 minutes. With him were Mrs. Clemens, H W. Mitchell, Carl Jackson and "VV. J. Lyons.. "We wanted to find out just what time could be made between Portland and Tillamook." said Mr .Clemens, so we kept accurate time. We did not try to run fast, just went along at safe speed. Of course, we could have made the trip in less time but it would not have been safe." Two springs on Dr. J. R, Wetherbee's car broke near McMinnville and the machine was laid up for repairs. His party was .brought to Portland in other cars, while he stayed with the machine. Elwood Wites' car also broke down out of McMinnville, but was repaired. the Moran Ship Building Yard. He will relieve Constructor Thomas H. Ruhm.

Member of Crew Declares That Or ders Gave Xo Indication Another Train Was to Be Met Between Dayton and Cincinnati. CINCINNATI, July E. Interest in yesterday's disastrous wreck at Middle town, O., In which more than a score of lives were lost, was transferred to this city today. A statement from Ed J. Wall, pilot engineer of the Big Four passenger train which crashed into a freight train of the Cincinnati, Hamil ton & Dayton Railroad, places blame for the wreck on Train Dispatcher Smith, of the latter system, at Dayton, and in this he was Dartlally confirmer by E. I A. Gould, general superintendent of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton. Wall exhibited four train orders not any of which gave indication that the flying passenger train was to meet any other train at Posttown, or any other station between Dayton and Cincinnati. Engineer Has Orders. These orders. Wall added, were all that he had to guide him the day of the wreck. He had not only his own copies, but also the duplicates Issued to the regular engineer of the Big Four train, the latter giving them to Wall for safe-keeping.' "I have an idea that some such rea son was responsible for the accident, but I cannot say positively that it was," as though the failure of the passengers said Superintendent Gould. "It looks train to get certain Instructions caused the wreck. But before I can say any thing definite, the Investigation will have to he carried further. We will go to the bottom of the affair." Misunderstanding Is Mentioned. Local officers of the Big Four road did not attempt to . account officially for the wreck. A "misunderstanding" of orders was mentioned by some, but whose misunderstanding it was. they did not say. The attitude of the Cincinnati, Ham ilton & Dayton officers was taken to mean, however, that the predicted dis pute between the two sets of officers over responsibility for the disaster would not materialize. With the definite identification of the four unnamed bodies at Middletown. all the 19 dead in that place were account ed for. Two more victims died early today, one at Dayton and one at Hamilton. These were John Rankin, of Spring field, O., and Evelyn Lloyd, of Round Point, Me., and - their passing away made the death list 21. Four others are not expected to survive their injuries.

African Blacks Said to Be Pre paring to Fight. BRITAIN'S PROBLEM GRAVE Ending; of Tribal Troubles Has United Natives,' Who Are Now Se rious Menace to White Popu lation of Large Area. LONDONfl. July 5. (Special) "There is a great native war coming perhaps this year,- within a few weeks, as soon as the new crops have been threshed and the grain hidden In the hills; perhaps in May or June of next year; perhaps a year later on. No man living can say exactly when it will break out; but If a man says it will not come, set him down for a liar or a fool." These are the words of Stanley Portal Hyatt, a recognized authority on South Africa, who has lived for many years among the na tives. Clearly the greatest problem before Viscount Gladstone, the first Governor General of United South Africa, and the union government of Premier Botha is this black problem. The question is, "What is to be the- future status of the South African native?" Hitherto native wars in Africa have been with, or between, different tribes, but today there is a united black na tion making common cause against the hated white man. Many of the centers of danger are to be found in the Ethi opian Church, a Christian organization, rwith scores of American negroes as Its pillars. Politically, they all have a superficial civilization, but socially, they are barbarians, and In the Held they would be entirely savages. The country is up against a hard proposition. The stoppage of tribal wars has resulted in a tremendous In crease in native population, and now that the continent is more thickly set tled, there is not the same opportunity for retreat to the norhward away from the march of civilization. The Cape-to-Cairo Railway has sounded the end of that period. Blacks are overflowing from the reservations and the races are being pitted ' in closer opposition every day. The whites restrict the native rights; the blacks are envious of the white men's farms. Bechuanaland and Basutoland are to a large extent Independent, but the blacks ear the union government will open these territories to white settle ment. The natives of those regions have modern arms and could put an army of 30,000 well-mounted and equipped warriors into the field in less than a week. There alone is enough tinder to start a huge blaze, and all over South Africa the black hordes wait ready to leap to the conflict at the first chance of concerted action. HOME WINS IN ENGLAND CO-PARTNERSHIP LUXURIES GO TO SUBURBAN DWELLERS. Hampstead Is Scene of Latest Expe riment by People With Incomes of $3000 to $5000. LONDON, July 5. - (Special.) The latest co-partnership scheme in Eng land Is for peole with Incomes of $3500 to $5000 a year to combine to build themselves houses. Poorer people are more sociable in the British capital than the compara tively well-off residents, who belong to a class that strives much at exculslve ness and aloofness. They have hither to been shy about going into a gen eral scheme, but the success of enter prises such as garden cities has led J. F. L. Brunner, a rich Liberal member of Parliament, and others to make a trial of this new scheme. Hampstead. on the northern side of London, will be the scene of the ex periment. Ground has been acquired close to the - famous Heath. There houses are built at rents ranging from $350 to $500 a year, with about 30 per cent .additional cost in local taxes They have six to ten bedrooms and some have already been let in advance, the estate will be run by he tenants for their mutual benefit, each being a shareholder in his neighbor's dwelling. They even carry the apostolic injunc tion to have "all things in common among them" to the point of including their horticultural implements. Six ten ants, for instance, are joint owners of one garden roller. They did not know each other till a few days ago. And unkind critics say they are carrying co-partnership to a degree that will re sult in their not knowing each other again very shortly. Not far away Is another experiment at Flnchley, specially designed to re lease the housewife from toil. A new estate Is being laid out in which the star feature will be a central hall. All the houses are to be connected with It by a covered way. There the housewife will be able to have her meals cooked and served, her children cared for, her servants provided or her entertain ments arranged. For three dollars a week under this co-operative system, the central hall will provide three meals a day for a week for any member of a family. It is to be Ideal house keeping, shorn of all the worries but replete with all the comforts. At least, so the promoters say. POPE'S HEALTH IMPROVES Minor Aliments Disappear With Life in Vatican. ROME, July 5. Everybody who saw the Pope on his 75th birthday remarked how well he looked. Both he and his doctors agree that appearances are jus tified In this case, for his minor ail ments, such as eczema, that used to trouble him in Venice, have disap peared. Altogether he has become physically and mentally stronger since his resi dence in Rome, though there is more adipose tissue to carry and less incli nation for exercise. But even now he maintains his habit of early rising. Dawn sees him up every day now, as it used to do when he had to rise with the lark In order to walk many miles to school in Treviso. Vatican officials are of the opinion that the seclusion within the Vatican and its gardens and the consequent re pose from outside strife are conducive to health in the case of the present pontiff, who under other conditions would wear himself out in parish work. He has been nine years a parish priest, nine years a bishop and nine years patriarch of Venice.
