Shelley, of Eugene, man ager of the Eugene Mill & Elevator Co., fcas protested against a recent raiso of nearly 100 per cent in cortain local freight rates in that part of the state. He encloses a shipping receipt showing that he pays a rate of 23 cents per 100 pounds on wheat and oats from Eugene to Yoncalla, 44 miles, which rate, he says, is excessive, unjust and unreason able. Prior to January 1, 1907, tho rate was 14 cents. The rate for a little long er distance, as, for instance, from Eu gene to Roseburg, is now 31 cents, whereas the former rate was 15 cents. This is an increase of over 100 per cent. The railroad commission will investi gate. Ntw Cannery Tender.

Eastbound Burlington train No. 6, due in Butte at 11:30 o'clock tonight, was dyna mited about a mile west of the Northern Pacific station at 11:37 o'clock. The explosion caused the first or helper engine to leave the rails, but it plowed along for a few hundred feet without turning over. The second engine crashed Into the bank south of the track a few car lengths from where the explosion occurred. Every person on the train hfu, been accounted for excepting En v neer Bussey, of the second eng',i:e. who is supposed to be burled r.njer his locomotive. Carl Mange, , li was riding on the blind baggage, had to be taken from the mass oi timbers under which he waa buried. His arm and leg "were broken. Fireman George Ehle, of the second engine, was badly scalded. Both were hurried to the hospital In the police patrol, which waa at the scene of the wreck, as quickly as possible after the men were re ceived in the city. Locomotive No. 2100, In charge of Engineer Bussy and Fireman Ehle, is lying on its side south of the track.

It is estimated that there will be be tween 700,000 and 800,000 people in San Francisco on the day that the fleet ar rives. The suburban cities adjacent to the bay and towns within a radius of 50 miles will practically be depopulated, and will contribute 200,000, while the railroad companies estimate that they will bring at least 150,000 from points beyond as far east as Omaha, and from British Columbia on the north, to the international boundary on the south. BLOW UP ANOTHER TRAIN. Art collectors of New York have discovered that for years they have been systematically swindled by an art dealer and an artist. The visit of the battleship fleet at Santa Barbara was a dismal failure, the people seeming to care for noth ing but to make money. Several hundred striking miners ln Pennsylvania have returned to work to save the mine from perma nent destruction by water. J.

BUTTE, Mont., May 5 What ap pears to have been an attempt to wreck a freight on. the northbound Oregon Short Line similar to that which befell tho Burlington train Friday night, was thwarted Sunday by John Holan, who was walking the track on his way to Melrose. . When about six miles this side of Mel rose, Holan, according to his own story, discovered 15 sticks of dynamite m a. small hole immediately under the rail. Holan threw the explosives into the river near by, and hastened to no tify the Melrose station asent. When the northbound train arrived it was held back until a thorough investigation could be made. The station agent at Melrose tele phoned the local authorities, and the latter are inclined to give credence to Holan '8 story in view of the theft re cently of a quantity of powder from one of the mines of the district. About seven sticks of dynamite were found on the Short Line tracks. The would-be dynamiter was arrested and confessed his part in the plot. TrooDS Hunt Insurgents. LIMA, Peru, May 5 Government troops have been sent out by President Pardo on the receipt of reports here that an insurrection was brewing not far from this city. Alarm was felt in government circles on Friday night, when it was rumored that the insurgent leader, Dr. Durand, with 200 of his men, attempted to cut the wires of the elec tric lighting plant which supplies the current for the lighting of Lima and the suburbs. President Pardo passed Sat urday night in the barracks, and this morning additional troops were sent out in search of the insurgents. Oregon City Rose Show.

The baggage car also remained on the track. The general theory of the explo sion is that tho dynamite was placed directly on the rails, but it is impos sible to say whether a time fuse or some sort of percussion cap was at tached to the explosive. Those who saw the flash agree it came from the south side of the track. The dynamiting is believed by the officers to be the work of some hobo seeking revengo for being ejected from a train. Express Messenger J. B. Valentino was seriously bruised, being badly cut by a flying grenade. His escape from death in his car is considered miraculous. The force of the explosion was terrific.
