The cry of fire rang out clear and
loud for aeveral mlnutea before the
fire bell rang, near midnight Saturday
night, and a acore of people were on
the arene before any one could get to
I he fire department to turn In an
alarm. And very soon after the bell
gave the alarm there were a acore of
firemen busy at work getting atarted
for the fire wltb the hoae carta.
Arriving on the acene the firemen
found that -the fire waa a suppressed
blaze burning slowly In the loft be
tween the roof and the celling. In tne
one stoiy-aulldlng occupied by the
Oregon City Shoe Compauy. and the
property of J. Uageson. From the In
dications the fire had been started by
a derectlve light wire running through
the loft over the atore. for It waa
from there that denve columns of
smoke lsnuer in ever-Increasing vol
ume.
When the firemen arrived upon the
acene there was little fire In sight but
It was In a position that made It hard
to get at. It was necessary to send
for the book and ladder truck before
the hose could be played on the actual
fire. Thla took time and despite the
fact that the doors were kept closed
to avoid a draft the fire continued to
gradually eat ffe way out The lad
ders arriving firemen armed them
selves with axes and climbed to the
roof, where holes were chopped Into
the roof and the water turned Into the
loft and on to the lire.
In the meantime the water was car
ried Into the atore by tha back way
and the lower part of the atore eat
urated ao that fire could make but lit
tie headway In. caae It did burn
through from the celling. Dut the
fire was confined to the celling almost
exclusively until the water wss turned
on lt In such a wsy as to quickly ex
tlngulsh the blaze.
More damage waa done 'by water
than by the fire; but for the water.
however, there would have been
ti(g and disastrous fire before It coufd
have been extinguished.
It Is a mystery how the fire started
unless It was from defective wiring
strung In the celling over the store.
Loss about 12,000; the stock is In
sured. The loss to the building will
be considerable but cannot be deter
mined until the light of today .

OVER A HORSE TRADE
SCHUEBEL AND HIS CLIENTS
HAVE BOTH TEAMS BUT
CANT GET $15. '
There was almost a riot on the
streets Saturday when Attorney C.
Schuebel and a client went to a barn
In thla city" and led away a team of
horses. And later, when tbe friends
of the clalmanta to the horses met the
lawyer and his friends, It waa a tick
lish situation for a few moments.
It all grew out of a horse trade at
that. One Tom Montfellne, of Mil
waukle, traded a team of horses with
S. H. Wyrlck and B. R. Case In which
he gave a team and $15. the agree
ment being, Montfellne avere, that he
was to have till Monday to try out the
team and aee If It suited him.
But Montfellne became satisfied on
Saturday that the teitra he received

told him that a trade waa a trade and
that In any -event they had sold th
team.
l'
At this point In the mltun Mnnt
feline hired a lawyer In the person of
. Hcnueiiei, wno at once started out
In search of the team. Later, when
the team was found In a atable soma
diatance from where the horses were
auppoaed to be kept Schuebel at once
took poaaesslon and defied the traders

wss not satisfied wltb possession of

refused to accept the tea'm they first
owned and return the $15 but went
into justice Samson a court with an
attempt to get back the 115 and have
tne ownership of the Montfellne-team

pelling the traders to take their own

EXPLOSION KILLS
SIX AT ESTACADA
BOILER LETS GO AND HURLS ALL
WHO STAND NEAR INTO
ETERNITY QUICKLY.
LACK OF PROPER CARE IN HANDLING
One of the Owners of the Mill a Vic
tim of the Destruction of
His Own V
Mill.
The explosion of a logging engine at
Estacada at an early , hour Saturday
morning carried havoc to property
n the uelKhborhood and death and
destruction to the workmen who were
standing near. The time of the acci
dent was snout 6:30 a. m. and six vic
tims were blown into eternity In less
time then It takes to tell the story.
Tbe place of the explosion was at a
point 1V miles from Estacada, where
a crew of men were running a donkey
engine in the Improvement work of
the P. R. U P. Co., though not work
ing for the company, and tbe exDlo-
slon killed Ave outright, one since has
died, snd severs! others were more or
less Injured. .
No cause for the explosion has been
ssslgned, The men had assembled
around the engine to go on duty, and
were warming their bands, prepara
tory to commencing work. Their'
bodies were sent flying through the
sir from 20 to 40 feet, snd the boiler I
was thrown fully 1000 feet, landine
within a few feet of a woodman who
had Just commenced his day's work.
Town of Estacada Startled.
So great was the shock that the
town of Estacada, 11& miles distant
from where the yarding engine stood.
wss alarmed over the concussion. The
force employed at the river mill of
the Portland Railway. Light Power
Company, which was something more
man 1000 feet from the yarding en
gine, waa also assembling to go on
duty, and these men were alarm -d
over the terrific affair. The entire
force of workmen at the -power site
for tbe lower Clackamas dam, half a
mile from tbe explosion, felt the con
cussion, too. i
. What caused, tbe boiler to blow up
probably never will be learned. ' Tne
fireman, Negblse, who had Just been
employed by the logging foreman,
says that he went to the engine be
tween 5 and fi, put In some wood and
returned to the boarding-house to eat
his breakfast. Before he finished, tbe
logging crew, which Is employed by
the Pitt man Bros., began assembling
for the ilay's toll. -Some
Were Warming Their Hands.
In their midst was James Pittman,
one of the contractors in charge of the
plant, and who was acting as foreman.
He had evldenty reached the engine
some moments before it blew up, and
had there been any dangerous steam
pressure apparent ' be would have
known how to relieve the situation
Pittman and all those about him
were killed. Fireman Negblse says
that he was spproachlng the engine
and had come within 30 or 40 feet of
It when the explosion occurred. He
was knocked down by the concussion
but as he went down saw the 30-horse-power
boiler dart through the air and
the bodies of his fellow workmen flung
in every direction with deadly force.
Negbise's injuries are slight and he
remained at the bunk house of the
logging concern near the mill. He was
a new employe of the company, but
said when he came on duty that he
had done much work as a fireman for
stationary englnea.
The Killed.
James Pittman, residing at Sandy.
Richard White, residing at Sandy.
R. W. Smith, residence unknown.
A day laborer, nam not yet re
vealed.
Watson, residence unknown
died within two hours.
Man, name not learned, died In hos
pital few hour later.
maimer Negblse, fireman, was
slightly injured.
Logging operations there are con
ducted by Pittman Bros., of Sandy, on
contract basis with the Portland
Railway. Light & Power Company.
The railway company uses Its River
mill for the manufacture of materials
needed in the heavy building opera
tions in progress, but lets the logging
out on contract. William Pittman,
brother ut the foreman killed, had
started to Portland in the early morn
ing, and reached the scene rsther late.
after being apprised of the accident
en route to Portland.
Richard White, one of the killed,
was the rigging man.. R. W. Smith
was the whiffle boy. The others
killed and Injured filled out the usual
force for a small yarding engine In log
ging operations. There was only one
person who could say what the steam
pressure on the boiler gauge was
when the men began assembling there
after eating their breakfast, and he
has since died. In the confusion of
the camp following the explosion there
were some men asserting that the
steam did not register above 40 or 60
pounds.
The woodman who happened to be
looking In the direction of the engine
at the time of the explosion, and who
stood fully 1000 feet away, saw noth
ing but the disastrous results. The big
pile of wrecked Iran and steel shot far
up Into the air, a distance which
seemed to him from 100 to 200 feet,'
and came hurtling In his direction
landing-about 25. feet away, A deep
hole waa plowed Into the ground
where the engine struck, but the mo
mentum was so grest tha wreck
bounded out again and went a dis
tance of 25 or 30 feet further before
coming to a atop.
There was abnndsnt evidence of the
dreadful power of the explosion to be
found lnth trees hard by. Young

CAMP FIRE SATURDAY
SPEAKING, FEASTING, MUSIC
OLD SOLDIERS ENJOY ROUS
ING SOCIAL EVENT.
Saturday wss pension day and
Meade Post he,ld a Camp Fire in this
city. The meeting proved to be one
of the most enthusiastic In the history
of the Post, and the attendance was
very large. The W. R. C. served the
dinner and the spread was a good
one. Sixty-five old soldiers sat around
the festal board and enjoyed tbe boun
ty of the ladles.
Commander D. K. BUI, -who has
been sick the past three weeks, was
present and presided, but when lt
came to the obligating of the new
members he waa so much fatigued
that he called upon his adjutant to
assist him.
Lieut. Col. Holsay, of Portland, was
present and made a short address.
He was a member of the first Minne
sota Volunteers, the first regiment In
the field under the call for 75,000 vol
unteers by Lincoln. He was all
through the service and his regiment
saw much of It; he was wounded in
battle; his story of the war, which
he told from beginning to end, was
replete with Incidents to Interest the
old soldiers. He came to Oregon City
In answer to an Invitation to attend
the meeting Saturday and his talk to
the Post was one of great Interest to
members. .
Not oniy was Saturday pension day
but lt was also the fiftieth anniver
sary of Lincoln's first Inauguration,
making the event of more than or
dinary interest to the members of the
G. A. R. Chaplain Rowan, who made
a short address Saturday, was at the
Inauguration and heard Lincoln's In
augural, and he told some of the
things he remembered of that occa
sion. There were . several musical num
bers Saturday that gave more than
the usual pleasure to the old soldier
present. Among them were "Sher
man's March to the Sea," "Coming
Home From the Old Camp Ground,"
and several songs by Kenneth Wood
ard, whose singing touched the hearts
of the members of the Post and Re
lief Corps.
Meade Post is the only one In the
State that has a drum crops, and lt
has a good one and Is proud of It,
The Corps gave several numbers Sat
urday to the delight of the veterans
who were present to enjoy It "Meade
Post has 103 members In good stand
ing at this time, and of that number
all who were able were In attendance
Saturday.
Paul Selby, of Chicago, baa com
posed another verse to add to the na
tional anthem, "America," In recogni
tion of Lincoln and his great work.
It follows:
Our nnpn banner waves
O'er freemen, not o'er slarea.

PARKPLACE WINS DEBATE.
Parents Should Take More Interest In
Work of Pupils. --
Parkplace won In the debating con
test with Canby Friday afternoon.
The subject was well treated by the
young people and there was much of
Interest among them. But the inter
est that Is manifested by the adults
was not of an encouraging nature.
. "It Is high time," one educator says,
"that the patrona and parent of pu
pils took more interest. If they
would manifest more interest in the
working- of the schools there would
not be so many low grades and so
iitstuj a ctai wk tauuivaj tiuuug fU4ia
