Callahan, of Philadelphia, and Joe Bern
stein, of New York, for 20 rounds, was

the leading, and knocked Bernstein down
three times with a right on the jaw. On
the other hand, Bernstein Jabbed Calla
han's face with his left throughout the
fight, bringing the blood from his nose
and mouth in a dozen rounds, and at in
fighting he was decidedly the better. His
ring generalship, too, was far better than
that of Callahan. The referee, however,
gave the decision to Callahan without
hesitation. It did not meet with popular
favor.
Second Trial of "Jack" Roberts.
LONDON, June 2S. The second trial of
"Jack" Roberts, the pugilist, and others,
charged with manslaughter In causing the
death of "Billy" Smith (Murray Living
ston, of Philadelphia), as the result of
a boxing contest April 22, at the Na
tional Sporting Club, began today at the
Old Bailey court. The jury In the first
trial disagreed. The public prosecutor
explained that the prosecution was un
dertaken with a view of stopping fu
ture competitions of the kind, rather than
with the view of punishing the defend
ants. Among the witnesses called for the
defense was the Earl of Lonsdale. He
said he had been associated with boxing
for 25 years. The Queensberry rules, pre
vailing at the National Sporting Club,
minimized the dapger of boxing-contests.
At the close of the testimony all the
defendants were acquitted.

SECOND STAGE OF RACE
FOURNIER'S AUTOMOBILE WAS THE
FIRST AT HANOVER. .
Usual Chapter of Accidents Marked
the Run From Aix-la-Chappelle
Preparing for the Finish.
HANOVER, Prussia, June 28. Fournler
was again first to arrive at the end here
of the second day's stage of the motor
race. Fournler thus adds to the
Grand Duke of Luxembourg prizes which
he won yesterday the award offered by
Hanover for the quickest Journey from
Paris to Hanover.
The weather was brilliant here today,
and thousands assembled to witness the
arrival of the contesting motor cars. When
M. Fournler drove into the city at a high
rate of speed the band struck up the
"Marseillaise," and the winner of the Alx-la-Chappelle-Hanover
event was vocifer
ously cheered. The arrival of M. de Grals,
on a car of German construction, was
heartily cheered. The competitors In the
race were given a banquet this evening.
Fournler arrived here at 2:13 P. M., hav
ing gone 270 miles In nine hours seven
minutes and 37 seconds. He practically
led his competitors all the way from Alx.
At Casel, Glrardot got in front of Four
nler. and In the struggle for the leader
ship, the two cars collided and a boy
was Injured. Fournler then took and
maintained the lead into Hanover. Be
yond the accident at Casel and a couple
of punctures in the tire of his car, Four
nler had no mishap, and his machine is
in good order. He is thought to have a
good chance of winning the race, al
though Antony and de Knlff are running
him very closely. De Knlff arrived here
at 2:50 P. M., Antony at 2:52, and Glrar
dot at 2:54, amid the greatest excitement
and confusion. Maurice Farman arrived
fifth at 3:25, Graud sixth at 3:36; Chaurard
seventh at 3:37. Heath eighth at 3:45, Axt
ninth at 4 P. M., Pascal tenth at 4:11,
Henry Farman 11th at 4:18, Brazier 12th
at 4:22, Leyst 13th at 4:27, Osmont 14th
at 4:3. Ogier 15th at 4:34. De Knlff has
40 minutes to catch up on Fournler and 19
on Antony.
Several mishaps have occurred. Pin
son's Panhard machine collided with a
tram car at Meiderich, In Prussia. Both
the car and the automobile were wrecked,
and some people were Injured. PInsongave
up the race. Roll's machine collapsed at
Cologne, but after repairs he resumed
running, and arrived here at 7:15.
Fournler Is the Favorite.
CHICAGO, June 28. A dispatch to the
Tribune from Alx-la-Chappelle says:
A vast crowd was present when Four
nler rushed in at full speed. He was un
able to stop at the arrival post. It was
only by a miracle that many people were
not hurt. Fortunately, however, the bulk
of the crowd had received timely warning
of Fournler's coming and the road was
pretty well cleared. It Is claimed that
Fournler's actual racing time was six
hours and 58 minutes. The road rules
compelled him to slow down in many
towns and villages.
Foxhall Keene, the American, was the
18th to arrive. He registered an hour and
34 minutes after Fournler. He was the
143d man to start, and made good time,
notwithstanding an accident at Bastogne,
In Belgium.
Fournler's time does not compare favor
ably with his winning time of So kilo
meters an hour In the Paris-Bordeaux
race, but the roads to Alx are not so good
as to Bordeaux. Barring accidents, M.
Fournler Is now considered the favorite,
although Mme. de Knlff, "Vergt, Farman
and others are close after him. He has
the same Mars automobile that he had.ln
the Paris-Bordeaux race.
Another Child Injured.
SSEN, Prussia, June 23. An automo
bile, competing in the Paris-Berlin race,
ran over and seriously Injured a child near
Ruhret, Rhenish Prussia, 16 miles north
of Dusseldorf.
Accidents Cause an Ontcry.
PARIS, June 28. The automobile acci
dents yesterday in the Paris-Berlin race
nre causing an outcry, and Deputy Gauth
ler brought the matter up in the Cham
ber of Deputies today. He asked that
measures be taken to stop running auto
mobiles at excessive speed and, amid
loud plaudits from the Rightists, said that
It was. a singular and saddening idea to
organize a race to Berlin, passing through
Bazellles and Sedan. The Premier, M.
Waldeck-Rosseau, replied that the race
would not have been authorized if it had
only been started for pleasure or sport.
Regulations were about to be issued to
control the speed of automobiles, and
henceforth no race would be authorized
at speed exceeding that used In normal
traffic. The roads would no longer be
placed at the disposal of automobile driv
ers. The statement was greeted with
cheers.
Prepnrntlons for the Finish.
BERLIN, June 28. The automobile race
from Paris to Berlin Is responsible for the
fact that for the first time since 1870.
French and German flags are peaceably
flying together In Berlin. The tri-color Is
seen in nearly every stand, on the hotels,
and it has even been raised over public
buildings. The French and German flags
are intertwined over the gate of the bar
racks of the crack guard corps, where
some of the competing auto-cars will be
housed tomorrow. The entire city of Ber
lin Is agog with excitement about the
race. The contestants are due here to
morrow. Bets are freely made on the win
ner, and M. Fournler Is the favorite. The
police of Berlin are tonight making ex
tensive preparations to handle safely the
Immense crowds who will witness the fin
ish of the contest and to avoid collisions
and accidents. There are .thousands of
visitors In Berlin from outside points,
and two extra trains have arrived from
Paris bringing those interested in the
event.
A succession of minor accidents marked
the middle stage of the race. A petro
leum motor blew up while approaching
Dusseldorf, and its occupants were slight
ly Injured. Count de Parlgord, the fourth
racer to arrive at Alx-la-Chappelle, was so
seriously 111 from the strain that he has
been compelled to abandon the contest.
International Cricket Match.
PHILADELPHIA. June 28. The Cana
dian cricketers who reached here yester
day began a two days match with the
Belmont eleven today at Elmwood. this
city. The Canadian eleven Is captained
by Major V. O. Strubenzle. of Kingston,
while the Belmont team Is captained by
C. Coats, Jr. The weather was clear and
warm and the course was in first-class
condition when play began shortly be
fore noon. The Canadians won the toss
and elected to bat first. When stumps
were drawn for lunch the Canadians
had scored 63 runs for the loss of five
wickets.

Where the forests have been destroyed, or
even the mulch and litter forming the
forest floor, as It so often Is by fire or the
excessive grazing of sheep, the rains,
for the most part, instead of sinking into
the soil, pass over the surface, carrying
silt and other debris into the streams and
reservoirs, causing vital injury to irriga
tion enterprises. So, also. In the semi
arid regions, where there are no forests
or where they have been destroyed, the
wind has a free sweep, resulting in an
enormous .increase in evaporation. In
some instances the evaporation from a
water surface exposed to the free sweep
of the wind reaches a maximum of 13
Inches In a single month. In exposed
situations, snows a foot In depth are fre
quently lapped up In a single day without
even moistening the soil beneath. We do
not appreciate how great the necessity
for the preservation of the forests is to
the irrigable West.
Reservoirs for the purpose of Impound
ing water to be used in indication have
been constructed by private enterprise In
many parts of the West and the possi
bility of Governmental construction of
such reservoirs is by no means improbable.
Effective reservoirs are not possible In our
irrigable regions without due regard foi
the forests that feed the streams which
fill them. Forests everywhere are the
great preventers of erosion, and nowhere
Is this more evident than In our Western
mountains. The utility of reservoirs, and,
to a lesser extent, of distributing canals
and laterals, becomes destroyed as they
flll with silt. To prevent this filling, the
forests must be preserved; they must be
protected from fire, In so far as an ef
ficient forest service can protect them,
and also from grazing, wherever It seri
ously Interferes with the effectiveness of
the forest floor as a water absorbent.
RIVERS AND HARBORS.
The Oregon Situation, as Seen in
the Interior.
Baker City Democrat.
The utterances of the Dally Astorlan In
Its attempt to block the Columbia River
to navigation have been Justly rebuked
by the Hon. C. W. Fulton, the leading at
torney of the City of Astoria. Not only
13 the Astorlan fouling Its own nest, as
clearly pointed out by Mr. Fulton, but
It Is misleading strangers Into the belief

the Inland Empire. Nothing could be
further from the truth.
The Democrat believes that it voices
the sentiment of 95 per cent of the peo
ple of Oregon, Washington and Idaho
when It states the Columbia River must
be maintained open for deep-sea naviga
tion as far ?s Portland, and that the Co
lumbia and Snake Rivers must be opened
for navigation by river steamers as far
inland as I awlston, Idaho, or the people
will rise in their might and send such rep
resentatives to Congress as will fight
for and obtain the rights of the people of
this great empire.
The contention of the Astorlan and some
of the people of that city for what they
call the "common point" rate on wheat,
now revived and thrown into the present
agitation, Is absolutely without basis of
reason, and has not the slightest connec
tion with the point at issue the Improve
ment of the Columbia River. All the lies
compiled upon the subject by Astoria can
not change the situation, nor will they
make that city any friends In the Interior.
No amount of misrepresentations can dis
guise the fact that the Columbia Is a
large and navigable river, with as good,
or better, channel from Portland to the at the Cape, had made a life stud of
sea than has the ports on Puget Sound. , the carrier Pigeons and before the war

the Erie canal Is maintained and always
will be. Where the first improvements
of the Columbia River are needed is at
the mouth of the river, so that even ves
sels of the size at present entering the
river can safely cross the bar and come t
Into harbor at all, or pass out with any- I
thing like a full cargo without touching
bottom. The matter of greatest lm- I
portance to the Inland Empire Is the im
provement of the river between The Dallca
and Cclllo. As the Erie Canal set the
pace for transportation rates In the State
of New York, so will the Columbia and
Snake Rivers In the future regulate rates
In the Inland Empire and make it possi
ble for the farmer to get more for his
products.
The mere hauling of the grain from
the Inland to Astoria for loading on chips
of export Instead of at Portland, even at
the same rate now paid to Portland, would
not add another penny to the rate paid
the farmer for his grain, even granting
that the vessels would be so charitably
Inclined as to reduce their charter rates,
a thing not likely to happen, because the
gralnbuyer and exporter, the man who
charters the vessel, would be the one to
benefit by such reduction of vessel rates.
All this fine talk about benefiting the
farmer by loading his grain on vessels
at Astoria Is misleading, pure and sim
ple buncombe made out of whole cloth.
In the hope of enlisting the aid Qf our
people In Astoria's personal fight against
Portland.

on wheat Is extended to Astoria or not,

statesman, philosopher and poet, out ce is
not much of a financier. At least he
wasn't a few years ago, before he en
tered Congress. He tells the following
story at his own expense:
"When I opened my first bank account
not so very many years ago I didn't have
much Idea of how banks conducted busi
ness. I made a deposit of a few hundred
dollars, was given a bank book, which
showed the amount of money I had to my
credit, and a check book. Upon return
ing to my office I carefully placed the
bank book in my desk and forgot all
about it. I carried the check book In
my pocket for convenience sake. It was
a new sensation for me to draw checks.
I was like a child with a new toy. When
I needed money, or anybody else wanted
some, all I had to do was to go down
after the check book. I was the proudest

for that matter. Finally, nowever. i
found that I had overplayed my hand, as
they say out West. One day I received
a notice from the bank that my ac
count had been overdrawn to the extent
of 537 50. I didn't really know what It
meant or what to do. What do you sup
pose I did do? Well. I'll tell you. I
walked into the bank with the notice of
overdraft, drew a check for the amount,
handed both to the paying teller and
started out of the bank. I was called
back, and matters were explained to me.
much to my humiliation. Since then I
have kept a little closer tab on the
stub end of my check book."

It was only a short time before that
the English Government had decided to
establish a service of carrier pigeons. In
the Navy, pigeon posts were Tecognized

as 1896, and there are over a thousand
birds recorded on the books of the royal
Navy. The first Naval loft was at
Portsmouth, and now there are two
others. In the English Army the posts
have been confined almost exclusively to
the Cape, where the nature of the
