ter In part, folio wa:
In my platform to the people of
Oregon when I was elected to the
United States Senate, I pledged my
efforta to secure Federal assistance
for the construction of the Oregon
City locks, believing that the condi
tions Justified such construction. ' I
helped to secure Congressional action
authorizing a new aurvey and Investi
gation of this project. Some three
yeara ago I had several conferences
with the chief engineers relative to
this project. No action was taken
by the House, nor, so farwa' I can
learn, waa there any effort made on
the part of the House to secure an
appropriation In the River and Harbor
bill of April 20, 1910. After the bill
waa made up in the House and came
over to the Senate, at my request the
chief of engineera telegraphically In
structed tl? district engineer. Major
Mclndoe to come to Washington to
submit to him and to the Committee
on Commerce In the 8enar, of which
am a member such data aa he had
been able to collect-and arrange at
that time. I talked personally with
every member or the committee on
commerce and In the Senate, explain
ed to them the situation,' and with the
assistance of the explanation of Ma
jor Mclndoe and of Major Cavanaugh
In the engineer's office hero- waa able
to convince the committee on com
merce In the Sen-rte of the merit of
tha proposition, and, at my request.
he Senate committee on commerce
amended the River and Harbor bill
aa It came over from the House by
Inserting the following:
Claus Providing Locks. .
' 'For the purchase of the existing
canal and locka around Willamette
Falls at Oregon City. Oregon, or for

retary of War, three hundred thous
and dollars: Provided, that no part of
this appropriation shall be expended,
except for the acquisition of the nec
essary lands and rights of way and
for such antecedent surveya and pre
liminary work as may be necessary In
his connection, until the State or
Oregon shall appropriate for the
foresaid purpose a like amount; and
the purchase of the existing canal and
ocks, or the actual construction or a
new canal and Jocks, shall not be un
dertaken hntll the Secretary of War
hall be satisfied that the State of
Oregon will deposit the sntd amount

"The Senate adopted the amend

LAWYERS HERE MAKE DISCOVERY
I F
rmera Walt For Interpretation
By
Secretary Olcott Before Ob
taining Light For
Vohlclea. "
The Oregon Motor Vehicle law,
which Wcanie effective August 1 pro
vides that all vehicles drawn by
horses, as well as automobiles, shall
have lanterns at night, a cording to
several Oregon City lawyers, who
have , made a study of the statute.
Whether It was the Intention of the
framers of the law or the Legislative
Assembly to make thla provision Is
not known, but the language of the
ststute la clear upon the point. Aa
a result of this interpretation of the
law several farmers In this county
have provided lights for their vehi
cles, and othera have declared they
will not do so until Secretary of State
Olcott has made a ruling on the quea-1
tlon at Issue.
Under the sub-caption "Definition
of Vehicle" Is the following clause:
"Every moving thing except railroad
and streetcars upon the streets, roads,
and highways of this atata moved by
power."
Clause Provides For Lights.
TKe following appears under the
sub-caption. "Necesary Equipment:"
"Adequate brakes to control vehicle
at all times; adequate ' bell, horn,
whistle ot other signalling device;
during period from one hour after
sunset to one hour before sunrise two
white lights in front and one red light
behind, red light to show white light
serous rear which shall shine on rear
number plate; front lights to be visi
ble 200 feet In front.
"Motorcycles and all vehicles other
than motor cars, one lighted lamp In
front visible 100 feet, and red lights
to rear. On face of lamps showing
white lights, registration number In
figures at least one Inch high and
readlble at least fifty feet with prop
er eyesight."
Lawyers Interpret Law.
C. Schuebel and J. F. Clark the
lawyers, who were first to Interpret
the law as applying to vehicles drawn
by horses, declare there U no ques
tion as to the meaning. "The lang
uage Is plain," Bald Mr. Schuebel,
"and It Is my opinion the courts will
uphold oftr contention."
Automobollsts ssy that the law Is
a Just one, and. If enforced, win pre
vent many accidents. They declare
there is no more reason why horse
drawn vehicles should not have lan
terns at night than automobiles, and
It Is probable that the framers of the
statute Intended to make tne provision
although the language Is not as clear
as it could have been made. The
law applies to cities the same aa the
country and If enforced all bicycles,
buggies, carriages, etc., In Portland
and other cities In the state must
be equipped with lanterns at night.

Aviator Harry Atwood completed his
record breaking 1.264 mile flight here
from St. Louts this afternoon when
he swept down past the . Palisades.
rounded the cluster of skyscrapers at
the south end of Manhattan and land
ed freely and gracefully on Gover

As he swept down through the Hud
son Atwood was in plain view of the
hundreds of thousands who lined both
the Manhattan bank and the summit
of the Jersey Palisades.
Only 150 feet in the air, he was lit
tle below the level of the onlooker
on the Jersey shore and as the roar
of cheers and the waving of flags and
handkerchiefs greeted him he bowed
right and left time and again In ac
knowledgement of the welcome. It
bad been expected that Atwood woujd
cut In across the Bronx and come
down Broadway but at the last minute
he decided at Nyack not to attempt
the flight down the city's main artery,
but to stick to the river aa less
dangerous.
Atwood left Nyack at 1:40 o'clock
and throughout the whole distance of
his flight today was watched by
crowds who had gathered since morn
ing to see the finish of his spectacular
flight. At no time during the day's
journey did the aviator have any

MANCHESTER. N. Y., Aug. 26.
Speeding eastward behind time, Le
high Valley, passenger train No. 4
ran Into either a spread rail or a brohv
en rail on a track near here today
and two day coaches from the mid
section of the train' plunged down
ward 40 feet, striking the East em
bankment like a pair of projectiles.
At least 37 persons are believed to
have been killed and more than 60 in
jured. Several of the Injured prdb-
ably will die.
Crowded with passengers, many of
whom were war veterans and excur
sionists from the Grand Army en ,
campment at Rochester, the trala,
made up of fourteen cars, drawn by
two mogul engines, waa '40 minute)
late when it reached Rochester June
tlon, and from there sped eastward to
make np time before reaching Geneva.
The engines and two day coaches had
just passed the center of a 400-foot
trestle over the Canandsgua outlet,
150 yards east of the station at Man
chester, at 12:35 o'clock, when the
Pullman car Austin, the third car of
the long train, left the rails. It drag
ged with it the dining-car, two day
coaches and two Pullmans.
All Jumped over the tie a short
distance, when the coupling broke.
The forward end of the train dragged
the derailed Pullman 'and diner over
safely, but both day coaches plunged
down the south embankment and
rolled over.
The free end of a Lehigh Valley day

were ruling; shoved over the gulch
and, followed by a Grand Trunk
coach, atrtpped th rear guard of the
south side of the' trestle and plunged
to the shallow river bed, 40 feet bo
low. (
The coaches that went into the riv
er struck that east embankment or
solid masonry with terrific force. Both
cars,, filled with passengers, lay a
mass of crumbled wood, metal and
glass, under which were a hundred
men, women and children.
STRANGE, HEW PEOPLE
FOUND BY EXPLORER
NEW YORK, Aug. 25. Finding of
a race of people never before included
Jn the books of anthropologists, a
race that ia Eskimo in hablta and
Scandinavian in physique, by WllbJ-
mar Stefansson, leader of the Ameri
can Museum scientific expedition,
may solve two or more historical mys
teries. This strange race, inhabiting
the Artie region of British America,
never had seen an Indian or an Eski
mo. ,
In bis letter, which ia dated "Mouth
of the Dease River, October 18. 1910,",
Stefansson says.
"We have discovered people In a
region supposed to be uninhabited
and have lived a few months among
people who had never seen a white
man or an Indian (though they had
heard of both), and did not even
know I was not an Eskimo o little
were they Informed on what wblte
men are like. We have discovered
Eskimo (in speech and hublts) who
are Scandinavians In appearance."
