WORIIOtIT GEAR WAS CAUSE OF ACCIDENT CNITBO riUJSS MOABED WlliS. Seattle, May 20. No more fatalities have been discovered today as -a re sult .of the accident at the Column dock, when the slip on which the passengers were clnmberlng nboard the Steamer Flyer yesterday gave ny, and 60 persons were hurled fun .nelwlBe Into Ellott bay. The known dead are: Mrs. Florence E. Learned and Carl Hruder, one-year-old son of Mrs. E. C. Brudor. Several narrow escapes occurred. Newton Johns, a negro bootblack, proved to be the hero of the occa sion. He tied a rope about his waist nd for half an hour continued to urag one person after another to shore. At least a dozen lives are credited to his rescue work. The accident resulted from a worn out gear which wind the chains that raised and lowered the gang plank. The gear slipped the cog wheels and the chains fell back. The end of the "Hp nearest the boat tilted back and plunged Into the water. Every one on lle gang plank was caught. There was no escape. Those on top pushed those below them Into the water 80 feet deep. Ufe preservers were Qnlckl hurled Into the water, a life boat lowered and nearby vessels rushed to the rescue. Some of the passengers, however, ' remained from 10 to IB minutes In the water before Ihey were pulled out Mrs. learned, according to the tlon and thereupon refused chances to go to work at $2.25 a day. The offi cials tell of continued trouble, ofas sults upon officers, threats to rescue prisoners In the Jails, of missing dynamite from an outlying quarry nnd subsequent threats to blow up the city officials and city property and of threats made against the welfare of the city. Attorney Charges Contempt. Fred H. Moore, attorney for many of the Workers, who alleged he was unlawfully detained Saturday by the police and then told by a committee of 15 citizens alleged to have been led by J. M. Porter, that it would be best for him to leave the city or drop the enses, has asked the superior court to Issue citations for contempt against the alleged "vigilantes." The case will come up tomorrow morn ing. Special Commissioner Welnstock was In San Diego for a short while today, being a passenger on tbe steamer Sonoma, which touched here on Its return voyage from Pnnama. where It conveyed members of vnr lous California Chambers of Com merce. "I have nothing to say regarding the things which have and are being sold respecting my report on San Diego conditions," he said, "other than what will be found In the text of that report, the accuracy of which I reaffirm." San Diego, Cal., May 20. Thehont The hearing of the Kirk caBe was marked by Intense bitterness of counsel and at one time It got so hot that Judge Guy ordered Attorney Moore and Assistant District Attor ney McKee to tnke their seats. The courtroom was packed with spectators, Including a number of those whom rumor has assigued to tanks of the vigilantes. From many quaters outside the courtroom today came expressions of Interest as to what course Govenor Johnson would take as a result of the report on local conditions sub mitted by Commissioner Welnstock. SacYamento, Cal., May 20. What ac tion Governor Johnson will take In the San Diego trouble had . not been re vealed up to 2 o'clock this afternoon, a she had absolutely declined to make any comment whatever upon the situ ation.

Deputy Attorney-General Hay Ben- Diego. That the governor means to Inter fere and that he means to go very thoroughly Into the entire Industrial situation In the south Is Indicated by the manner assumed by his close po litical associates.

Attempts by Ty Cobb this afternoon to Induce his fellow players to recede from their position and piny In tomorrow's game against Washington while he awaited the decision of Ban B. Johnson, pres ident of the league, failed. The stars flatly refused to entertain this proposal, announcing that they would play ball for Detroit only when Ty Cobb Is reinstated. The strikers are In onference here this afternoon. Philadelphia, May 20. The strike of Detroit players of the American leiigue who quit In a body when Ban Johnson, president of the American league, Indefinitely suspended Ty Cobb for attacking a spectator In last Wednesday's Detroit-New York game In New York was called off this af ternoon. All the Detroit players, except Cobb, will be In the regular lineup tomorrow afternoon, when the Tigers meet tho Washington team. Owner Frank Navln, of Detroit, said that Cobb would not be allowed to play, but he assured the strikers that Cobb's case would be adjusted at once. He also promised the players that hereafter they would be protect ed from Insults. The settlement resulted from Own er Navln's personal appeal to the ployers. Sacramento, Cal., May 20, Speak ing of the Ty Cobb Incident, Jimmy Shinn, Sacramento Infleldor, said: "There are a lot of tinhorn gam blers who come to the game solely to cuss a player If he happens to make an error that causes them to lose a two-bit bet. Some of tholr remarks are awful and Cobb did Just right, and the Detroit players did right In backing up Cobb." Catcher Harry Cheek, of the Sac ramento team, said: "Cobb had no other recourse. If the words were Insulting, as report ed, ho did Just right In going after (he fan. Players should, bowever.be given protection that will not make It necessary for them to personally resent such remarks." GOVERNOR WEST WILL EQUALIZE SEEKS TO ASCERTAIN A MORE EQUITABLE BASIS FOR SALAR IES OF COUNTY OFFICIALS IJi EVERY COUNTY OF THIS STATE Declaring the present system under which salaries for county officers are paid to be discriminatory, Governor West today announced that he In-, tends to present to the next legisla ture a bill which will establish uni formity of salaries In all of the coun ties, and with that end in view, he. Is gathering data on the subject. His plan is to ask the counties to submit Hats of the salaries now paid. Then he will ask the tax com mission to give him the valuation of each county. These lists will then be sent to bank presidents, heads of granges, farmers unions, and they be asked to give their Idea of what tbe salaries should be. Ho will then strike an average, and will fix in the bill to cover the ap propriation for all a certain levy and place all of the counties on a mll lage basis. Tbe county officers' sal aries will be placed on a percentage basis so that the county court can compute them. ' In fixing the salaries of the coun ties three things will be considered, their valuation, their population and their area. MT. ANGEL STOLE MARCH ON SILVERTOfi CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE & ST. PAUL ROAD BELIEVED TO BE CROSS ING MARIOS COUNTY TO REACH THE HEART OF THE WILLAM ETTE VALLEY. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul roalroad Is believed to be coming across Marlon county, and to be among the early transportation -possibilities of the Capital City. Some time ago an effort was made to get a franchise through Silverton by representatives of that line, but they were turned down, and the enterprising men of Mt. Angel took up the matter. They not only gave the promoters a fran chise and rights of way through Mt. Angel, but a bonus of practically $30, 000 In the shape of depot grounds and terminals. The right of way has been Been red across the county almost into Salem, and that company will be knocking at the doors of our city for a franchise Bhortly. With the S. P. company building across east to Fir station, with the Welch system In cluding a direct line to Silverton in Its plans and the Milwaukee system coming In by way of Oregon City, Mo lalla and Mt. Angel, the outlook for 8ulem as a railroad center Is very flat tering and real estate east of the city Is not declining In value.
