Five persons were Injured last night
when an automobile tipped over a
bank to the edge of the Sandy Kiver,
Just beyond Troutdale. One escaped
Unhurt.
The party consisted of J. R. Welty, a
lawyer, 496 East Twentieth street
North; Mrs. Welty; M. A Zollinger, of
the legal firm of Kollock & Zollnger;
Marian Zollinger, 9 years old, and Clif-
: ton Zollinger, 13 years old. The Zol
lingers live at 1226 Tillamook street
Several Seriously Hurt.
Mr. Welty sustained a compound
' fracture of the leg, cuts about the
head and severe bruises. Mrs. Welty
escaped with a few minor injuries.
, Mr. Zollinger sustained a broken arm
and severe bruises. Mrs. Zollinger
broke one rib in the fall and received
a cut on the head. Marian Zollinger
was carried to the hospital at Multno
mah Farm In an unconscious condition,
but revived later, and it is believed
she was not seriously hurt. Clifton
Zollinger escaped practically unhurt.
The injured were brought to Portland
by the Ambulance Service Company,
and taken to St. Vincent's Hospital.
The party had been picnicking up
the Sandy River. They were returning
when the accident occurred. About 150
yards outside the city limits of Trout
dale they met a man driving with a
' horse and cart. The horse appeared
frightened and Mr. Welty, who was
steering the auto, turned to the left
and gave the man the Inside track
en the narrow road.
Auto Turns Over.
In the twilight he apparently thought
- that the grass and weeds on the bank
covered a continuation of the road, for
he drove directly over the bank. The
automobile turned completely over as
It rolled down the ateep embankment,
made another half revolution at the
bottom and lay upside down in the
weeds and brush only a few yards
from the bank of the river.
Mr. Welty and Marian Zollinger
were pinned beneath the car. The
edge of the door lay directly across
Mr. Welty's neck. The child was com
pletely under the car, with one foot

Along Road; Take Valuables.
MARSHFIELD, Or, June 27. (Spe
cial.) Eight automobiles, loaded with
dancers, en route to a roadhouse dance.
were held up, one after another, be
tween Marshfield and South Inlet late
tonight by two to six masked robbers
who stripped the occupants of the
autos of all money and Jewels and then
escaped.
The highwaymen, armed with a rifle'
and a revolver, stood the victims up
along the road at the point of their
guns and as fast as one autoload was
robbed they were told to drive on.
Several women nearly fainted of fright.
At a late hour only one auto chauf
feur had reached Marshfield, and he
said he believed the robbers had taken
one of the automobiles to make their
getaway.
Charles Bowman, the first chauffeur
to reach town, notified the authorities
and posses have been formed. Word
has been sent to the drawbridge keeper
at South Inlet to keep the draw open
and the robbers' escape may be cut off
In that way. The entire district be
tween here and Empire has been awak
ened and officers are on the lookout.
Bowman reported that he was sure
there were two robbers and that he
thought there were five or six operat
ing on the automobiles behind him. He
was not allowed time to look around
after his car had been robbed. I

THE WEEK'S NEWS EVENTS WHICH WERE CHOCK FULL OF ACTION APPEALED TO CARTOONIST
BANK WILL ERECT
$1000,
First National Will Build
in 18 Months.
AVAILABLE SITES CONSIDERED
Structure Likely Will Be Lo
cated Near The Oregonian.
MERGER PLANS COMPLETE
Union With Security Savings and
Trust Company, Soon to ' Take
Place, Will Make Present'
Quarters Inadequate.
A typical bank building,' designed
exclusively for banking purposes and
costing $1,000,000. will be built by the
First National Bank within the next
IS months in the central business dis
trict. The site nas not been definitely
settled, but it will be In the neighbor
hood of the Oregonian buUding.
Several available sites are being con
sidered, among them properties owned
by the Corbett estate and the Security
Saving & Trust Company, which soon
Is to be consolidated with the First
National Bank.
Corbett Estate Owns Both Banks.
Both banks are controlled largely by
the H. W. Corbett estate and members
of the late Senator Corbett's family.
It is reasonably certain that the new
bank building will rise on property
owned by the Corbett Interests. A site
that has been considered is that at
the southwest corner of Fifth and
Stark streets, occupied by the J. G.
Mack furniture store. Mr. Mack has
an eight-year lease and It is said that
he is unwilling to surrender It pre
vious to Its expiration. The property
at the northwest corner of Fourth and
Alder streets, formerly occupied by the
Louvre grill, also Is being considered.
For a time it was reported that the
First National was planning to erect a
bank and office building to cover .the
entire block occupied by. the Corbett
homestead on Fifth, Yamhill, Sixth and
Salmon streets. This plait has- been
abandoned, however. .
Buflldlns; Plan Decided.
That the First National will erect a
new building has been definitely deter
mined by its directors. Some of the
details, even, have been tentatively ar
ranged. Present plans call for an Imposing
structure of marble and granite, prob
ably 100 feet high, with a dome ceiling
supported by the walls, leaving the In
terior without pillar or post.
The general style of architecture will
resemble that of the new Bank of Cali
fornia In San Francisco.
It is not intended to accommodate
other offices in the new structure with
the possible exception of such that are
directly related to the bank.
Consolidation Plana Complete.
Plans for consolidation of the First
National and the Security Savings &
Trust Company have been completed.
The two Institutions will merge Just as
soon as necessary alterations In prog
ress in the rooms occupied by the Se
curity Bank in the Corbett building are
completed. It was intended first to
effect the union about July 5, but this
is physically impossible, as the altera
tions cannot be completed In that time.
Officers and directors of both the
First National and the Security are
agreed that they will not be able long
to handle the business of the combined
bank in the quarters in the Corbett
building. The Security alone is fre-.
quently crowded during the rush perl-

The faction loyal to President Moyer,
of the Western Federation, who still Is
In Helena, announced that it od

by Monday to resume work of reor

outlined by President Moyer on tne

The Inquest Into the dea"- of Ernest
J. Noy, who was killed In the rioting
Tuesday night, was completed today,
and, after testimony of numerous wit

Testimony was to the effect that the
first shot was fired from the miners'
hall, and that the bullet that passed
through Noy came from the halL Ed

saw that President Moyer was armed,

come to this meeting without being
armed."
Many witnesses testified reluctantly.
All who entered the Coroner's office

With orders and Inquiries piling up.
lumber has advanced B0 cents a thou
sand within the past week and shingles
are up to I1.S0 for stars, with offers
of $1.6$, an advance of 14 cents
thousand within two weeks. Some of
the rail ' lines are taxed for cars In
which to haul the lumber and shingles
that are now moving, and the business
Is enjoying a brisk movement that It
has not known In months.
Should the movement increase with
the harvesting of the crops, leading
wholesalers and manufacturers declare
that the railroads will be unable to
furnish sufficient rolling stock to meet
the requirements.
Following out the tradition la the
lumber trade, when lumber advances
there Is an eagerness to buy. Country
yards in the East for the past four
years have been postponing the day
for "stocking up." the hope arising
within the past (0 days that the Pan
ama Canal would give them the water
rate. Inquiries and orders from all
over the Middle West are pouring In.
Wholesalers are aaaured of a profitable
business on the present market level.
All along the lumber line the out
look Is one of optimism, backed by
many orders, more Inquiries and a eon
sequent cheerfulness for the Immediate
future that the trade has not known

Crime
CHICAGO, June 27. - 'Spooning Is
a crime against womanhood,' John J,
Alexander, a director, today told $00
young women attending the older girls
conference of the international Sun
day school convention. "Pass the word
along to girls who love to 'spoon' that
it is the most degrading thing they
can do one of the most degrading
things they may permit.
"Make the boys dean-minded and
wholesome by the way you dress.
Young men take a girl at her own
valuation."
Miss Margaret Slatterln, of Boston,
made a similar talk at the olders boys
conference. Using a flower aa an em
blem of womanhood and tearing It
apart bit by bit, she said:
"No person on earth can make that
flower whole and beautiful again. Be
clean and be your sister's keeper."
