feat . which he performed this week :

Gibbon and according to local train- '
men It was probably : the narrowest
escape from a disastrous train wreck
the O. R. & N. has had In years, re
lates the Pendleton East Or egonlan .
No. 6, heavily laden with eastbound
passengers, was rushing toward Gib
bon and Toad entered the last block
before that station, when Greeks who
wero dropping empty cars down" fror.!
the coal chute permitted three of them
to escape from thelf control. The cars
dashed down fhe"-steep . incline,' out
onto the main line and .headed for
Pendleton at a terrific rate of speed.
As the passenger: train was already
In the block there was not the slight
est chance that she could be warned
of the Impending disaster.
Engineer Gibson was oiling his big
helper engine when he witnessed the
escape of the cars. - Realizing the Im
portance of prompt action he did not
hesitate a moment but swung himself
into his cab and started in pursuit of
the runaways. Though this was but
the work of a minute the escaped
cars were already far on their way
toward the oncoming train and
though Gibson pulled the lever back
to the last notch, throwing the throt
tle, wide open, In the wild race down
the track, two miles were covered be
fore the cars were overhauled In the
very face of the passenger. Then began
the race back to the station and the
helper with its runaway cars was
barely sent flying onto a side track
as the train came thundering In.
A delay of a minute or possibly the
fraction of a minute would have meant
a great disaster and great loss of life

Evidence of Conspiracy.
Chicago, June 15. Senator Lorimer
will probably be a witness for the de
fense in the trial of Browne for brib
ery in connection with Lorimer's elec

testify that Browne is a victim of a
gigantic conspiracy. White, the con
fessed bribe taker, was cross exam
ined today and denied that he sold his
confession to the Chicago Tribune be
cause he was hostile to Lorimer.
