RAILROAD COMMISSION CASE TO
BE TRIED HERE.
Demurrer, First Step, Is to Be Argued
Here This Week.
Judge Knowies has set for hearing
here late this week the demurrer of
the Railroad Commission of Oregon
in the suit filed by the Eastern Ore
gon Co-Operative Telephone Asso
ciation, of Elgin, to set aside and .an
null the recent order of the Railroad
Commission requiring the Co-Operative
Telephone Company to make
physical connections at Elgin, Cove
and Summerville between its lines
and the long distance lines of the
Home Telephone Company and re
quiring both companies to inter
change business at those places after
the connection should be made. The
order of the Commission required
the connection to be made within 20
days from the date of the order; but
the connection was not made and
sometime after the eviration of the
20 days, the present suit was filed
in. the Circuit 'Court of Union County
to annull the order. No injunction
was asked for at the time and the
order has not been complied with.
Attorney General A. M. Crawfoard,
appearing for the Railroad Commis
sion, filed a demurrer to the com
plaint in the suit which had been
filed by L. Denham, of Elgin, and J.
D. Slater, of this city.
Judire Knowies will hear the de
murrer this week, as stated, and the
case will probably be one of the first
civil cases to be disposed of at the
June term, in the event that the case
is not disposed of upon the demurrer,
in as much as it is said the statute
requires suits to set aside the orders
of the Railroad Commission shall
have precedence over all civil matters
both in the Circuit and Supreme
courts.
It is understood that the delay in
takincr ud the case for early hearing
has been largely due to a tactic us
derstanding by all parties that it
would be profitable to await the de
cision of the Federal Judges in the
telephone case at Portland, known as
the "Oregon Hotel Case," in which
the principal points involved were the
power and authority of the Oregon
Railroad Commission to require tele
phone companies to connect and in
terchange business. Recently, the
Federal Judges unanimously decided
in favor of the Railroad Commission
upon all the points involved.
PENDLETON MAN HURT.
Escape from Death in Auto Accident
Is Held to Be Narrow.
Pendleton. Mav 23. But for the
nlmost superhuman efforts of Omar
Stevens and John Vaughan, Wesley
N. Matlock, whose automobile turned
turtle Thursday afternoon near
Wasco, would undoubtedly nave Deen.
crushed to death, according to the
story brought back by G. I. La Dow
and W. C. rJ. JrTuitt, memuers oi tne
party. The machine fell across Mat
lock and settled on his chest, and was
slowly crushing the life out of him
when Vaughan and Stevens, exerting
their last ounce of strength, raised
the two ton Cadalic enough to permit
the pinioned man to crawl from be
neath. F. E. (Jalte) Welch was injured
worse than the first reports indicat
ed. He vras brought back last night
and will be confined to his home for
some time with a badly strained hip.
The physician thinks it is possible
that the hip bone was cracked. Mat
lock's nose was broken and he re
ceived severe bruises. He will re
main in Wasco for several days.
The accident occurred just before
thp John I)av erade was reached,
about 12 miles this side of Wasco and
was caused by a reverse turn in the
road. In making the first turn, the
sandy road required the front wheels
to be turned at a greater angle than
if the roadbed had been hard. The
reverse turn being directly ahead,
the driver could not turn the steering
wheel quite fast iough to make it.
The result was that one wheel struck
the embankment and turned the
car turtle in the middle of the road.
Stevens and Welch were caught un
der the car. Welch being unable to
move because of his injured hip,
Stevens was the only one able to
render assistance. Vaughan was
caught only by one foot and was soon
liberated. Both men believed that
Matlock had been killed until they
heard his voice calling faintly:
"You'll have to life it off quick or
I'm gone," he said, and the two men
out every atom of strength they had
into a desperate effort. They lifted
it enough to enable Matlock to crawl
out. He collapsed at once. The
broken nose caused him to bleed at
the mouth and this with his laborc'
respiration led to a fear of interna
injuries.
