GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT M. J. BUCKLEY IS INDICTED BY i
PENDLETON ATTORNEY ;
HELD TRAIN CREW DM ROAD FOR SEVENTEEN HOURS
Thursday afternoon District Attor
ney G. W. Phelna of PendUtnn. fll1
a criminal information against J. M. j
the O. R. & N. company, charging
htm with Tiolatlon of the 14-hour law
and the railroad official will have to
plead to the same before Circuit Judge
H. J. Bean, says the Pendleton East
Oregontan. i
In several ways the indictment filed
against Mr. Buckley Is one of Interest.
It is the first criminal action ever
trousht unicr t.w that
was passed at the last session of the
legislature. Incidentally it will prob
ably be the last one for the recently
enacted federal law, making II hours
the maximum time railroad men may
be kept at work, supersedes the state'
law. ,
However, the federal law did not go
into effect until March' 4, and as the
offense with which the railroad com
pany Is now accused occurred In Oc
tober, the general superintendent Is
subject to prosecution under the state
law. Henceforth vlolatjons will be
prosecuted by the federal courts.
In the information filed today, M.
J. Buckley and John Doe, the latter
being the train dispatcher at The
Dalles, who was then on duty, are
both charged with violating the' law
on October IS, 1907. The railroad
HOBSON TO PENDLETON.
Hero of tho Merrlmac May Speak In
Pendleton Soon.
If It is possible to secure him for
a lecture in this city. Congressman
Richmond P. Hobson will be borught
here at a later date this spring, says
a Pendleton paper. If 'he cannot be
secured, a substitute will be brought
here to fill his appointment or else
the money collected for the Hobson
lecture will be refunded by the high
school.
This announcement was made today
by Superintendent J. S. Landers and
Principal Hampton of the high
school. Mr. Landers has already writ
ten the Merrlmac hero, laying the
facts of the case before htm and ask
Ing him if he can come here at a
later date, the time being left to the
speaker.
According to the high school peo
pie they regret deeply that Hobson
was not here at the time set' for him,
but the fault was with the lecture
bureau manager and not with the lo
cal people. The latter acted entirely
In good faith In selling tickets for
the entire course, of which the Hob-
son lecture was one of the five.
Since the first of the week Supt.
Landers has been trying in vain to
communicate with the lecture bureau
manager, who seemingly has dropped
out of sight.

No Use to Die,

record for that day shows that freight
train No. 22 bound from The Dalles
to Umatilla, was upon the run for a
period of 17 hours and five minutes.
The case was referred to Mr. Phelps
by the railroad commission, who ask
ed that. It be prosecuted. Acocrdlngly
an Investigation was made by the dis-
trict attorney, in the course of which
he took testimony from J. P. O'Brien,
general manager, Mr. Buckley and
others. No reasonable excuse for the
delay was offered by the railroad ceo-
ole and It Is believed that a plea of
guilty will be made when the case
comes up in court.
At the same time the above case
was given to Mr. Phelps two other
charges were also filed with him.
However, the offenses occurred in the
other judicial district so no ' action
has been taken by Mr. Phelps.
Under the state law the penalty for
violating the 14-hour law varies from
a fine of from J100 to $500, Imprison
ment In the county Jail from six
months to one year, or both. ,
It is very probable that the facts
In the present case will be stipulated
and passed up to Judge Bean without
a trial. Since October the dispatcher
then on duty at The Dalles has re
signed and his present whereabouts
are not known. ,
