CAVEIN KILLS MA If IN TRENCH.
Laboren Dig Furiously In Futile At
' tempt to Rescue Him.
; Portland, Jan. 4 Burled under 15
feet of earth, the life wag crushed out
of Odin Anderson, a laborer, at 8
o'clock this morning while he whb
engaged In digging a trench at Fat
ton avenue and Alberta street For
30 minute Anderson's fellow work
men dug furiously through the earth
to locate the body but by the time
they found it life was extinct.
. Anderson reported for work at the
usual hour and at once entered the
trench,, which was 15 feet deep and
about 2 1-2 feet wide. The walls were
unprotected by cribbing and when
the earth began to crumble, Anderson
. had no way to save himself. There
were others In the trench but they
were far enough away from the cave
in to escape, i ' r
When Anderson saw the earth en
veloping him he gave one scream be
fore his mouth was covered. The
rescue work began at once, but the
soil was of such character that It was
difficult 'to make progress. Dr. Stone
was summoned before the body was
found but when It was brought to the
surface there was no need of his
services. .
Anderson lived with his wife at 611
Clinton street. He was 30 years old
and has been in Portland only a short
time. He was employed by William
Ldnd, the contractor on Bewer work
and was regarded as a faithful work
man. His wife Is employed In one of
the stores of Ben Selling. .

That Will Wright, the pioneer ban
ker of Union is to be displaced hb
state bank examiner by B. W. Ol
cott, Is Indicated by the following
from a Portland paper:
That B. W. Olcott, Oswald West'3
right-hand man during the recent
campaign, will be the choice of the In
coming board as State Bank Exami
ner to succeed Will Wright, Incumb
ent, Is being freely talked here and
there Is considerable speculation as
to the truth of the rumor, which ap
parently comes from a good source.
That Olcott will1 be the. choice of
West It a change is decided, unon
seems almost certain, although West
has made no statement as to whpx ho
will do In this respect.
Whether Olcott would accept Is not
positively known, as he refused to be
quoted tonight. .But there is eveiy
reason to believe that he will ba t?ie
man selected by West, and further
there is every reason to believe, from
what can be gathered, that at least
two votes of the board will cast
for Olcott, If Olcott will agree to ac
cept. For practically two years Olcott
and West were employed together in
the Ladd &Bush bank in this city.
During that time the Governor-elect
and Olcott were roommatea r"d
formed a close attatchment. It Is re
quired that the state bank examiner
have a certain amount of practical ex
perience and Olcott has all that and
while learning the banking business
with West and during six years was
cashier of an Illinois bank and later
being employed under Capt. E. T. Bar
nette in the rioneer bank at Fair
banks. Alaska.
