Strange Hallnclnatlon Hay Cause aa
Engineer's Death.
PERU, Ind., Jan. 15. As the result of
a strange hallucination,- J. E. Bible, an
old and trusted engineer of the Wabash
Railroad, was fatally Injured last night.
Slble was at the throttle of the big loco
motive of the limited, which was thun
dering along at a rate of 40 miles an
hour. When the lights of the town of
Attica appeared, the old engineer gave a
start, and shouted to Burt Frlck, his tire
man: "Jump for your life, Murt; the
switch is turned; weUl crash Into"
The sentence was not finished, for in an
instant Slble had applied the safety brake,
reversed the lever, and had Jumped to
escape the specter his harrassed nerves
had conjured up. The fireman followed
but was not Injured. The train, came to a
stop, and Frlck went back to find his
engineer. The latter lay on the roadbed,
horribly Injured. His skull had been
crushed, an arm and leg broken, his ribs
fractured, and his spine injured. He was
carried aboard the train
Meanwhile an investigation showed that
there had been no danger to the train.
The signal lights of the switch showed
an unobstructed path. Slble was brought
to a hospital here, where he managed to
gasp out his story. According to Fireman
Frlck, Slble had been more or less nerv
ous since he was in a wreck at La Fay
ette some months ago. The passengers
were shaken up by the sudden stopping of
the train, but none of them was injured.
Hocking Valley Coal DesL
COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 15. The Greendale
Coal Company passed Into the control of
the Pittsburg Coal Company, of Pitts
burg, today. The Greendale property
consists of extensive mines at Murray
City, In "the Hocking district, with an
output of about 1700 tons a day. Tho
price paid has not been announced. It Is
said that within the 'next 30 days the
company will come into possession of et
j least 12,000 acres of Hocking' Vallev coal
I lands.
OVER FIRST STAGE
Portland Postcffice Bill Passed
the Senate.
IT APPROPRIATES $250,000.00
Will Probably Get Through HoaMe
Late in the SessionThe Dalles-
Celilo Improvement May Re
Deferred.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. Senator Si
mon today called up and secured tho
passage of hls bill appropriating $250,000
for enlarging the Portland Postofflce and
United States Courthouse. The bill was
passed as reported. Representative Moody
will probably ask that the Simon bill be
substituted for his own in the House,
and urge early consideration by the House
committee. It will be more difficult to se
cure action from this committee' than, it
was in the Senate, but In view of the fa
vorable recommendation of the Secretary
of the Treasury and the extreme urgency
cf the case, favorable action is looked for,
though possibly late in the session.
There is some intimation that if there is
to be a reduction in the war revenue at
this session, public building legislation
will be held up, but this is extremely
doubtful in view of the overwhelming de
mand for public building appropriations
from all parts of tne country.
Colamhla River Improvements.
There is a growing sentiment among
members of the rivers and harbors com
mittee in favor of throwing the bulk of
the appropriation for Oregon and Wash
ington into the improvement of the mouth
of the Columbia for this session, at least
deferring action looking to the opening of
the Columbia between The Dalles and Ce
lilo. Almost every member of the com
mittee admits that The Dalles project Is
meritorious and worthy of recognition by
Congress, some going so far as to express
a preference for the canal pro
ject, but the general sentiment is
against an appropriation for the upper
river until the mouth has been adequately
provided for.
The Philippine Tariff.
Anything that is done in the Philippines
must be done by the -Republicans, because
the Democrats have made it impossible
for any Republican to work with them,
Bave Hoar and some others like him, who
are opposed to keeping the Philippines.
The Democrats Insist that a tariff bjll
must provide for. .absolute, free trade be
tween the United States an'tf "the Philip
pines, both ways, and that it must con
tain a provision declaring our intention
to withdraw from the islands as soon as
a suitable government is formed. Of
course, this means that no Republican,
not even Hoar, will vote for any such
proposition. While Mitchell's plan of a
50 per cent reduction cannot carry, he Is
gratified by the partial victory that has
been obtained, as in the beginning it was
determined that no reductions should bo
made.
Carnegie Is for the Panama Route.
The Panama Canal Company has a new
ally in Andrew Carnegie. He has busied
himself very Industriously of late in fa
vor of the Panama scheme, and has writ
ten several letters saying that the Panama
route is preferable to the Nicaragua route
for many considerations. It seems that
Carnegie was once induced to place $10.-
000 in the Nicaragua scheme, and has
never gotten It back, and that may ac
count for his prejudice against the Nica
ragua route now. He says that none of
the estimates made for either route are
anywhere near sufficient to cover the
amount that it will be necessary to ex
pend, as he knows, upon a thorough In
vestigation, that it will cost double that
amount. It becomes more and more ap
parent that the Panama scheme Is being
worked harder by those who oppose any
canal than by those who hope to secure
the best route.
Alaska Land Business.
The public lands committee today fa
vorably reported Representative Lacey's
bill to reduce the number of land of
fices In- Alaska to one, to be located at
Sitka. The report shows that in the otn.
ces outside of Sitka the Government to
date collected $10 In fees and paid out
$21,391 in salaries and expenses. The re
port states that the superfluous offices
were established on the representation
that there would be a great demand for
land in Alaska, but experience has demon
strated that these offices are wholly un
necessary. Colvllle Reservation Homesteads.
Representative Jones today favorably
reported from the public lands committee
his bill providing for free homesteads for
settlers on the north half of the Colvllle
Indian reservation by relieving them from
the payment of $1 50 an acre, such as
they will be required to make under the
existing law. Mr. Jones says the Indians
have been paid nothing for these lands,
and that the Government cannot in Justice
ask this price, as it does only in cases
where treaties provide, for a payment to
the Indians relinquishing lands. He hopes
to have the bill passed before the first
payment becomes due October 10.
MARRIED AT MEXICO.
Daughter of Ambassador Clay ten and
Belgian Minister Moncheur.
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 15. The marriage
of Miss Charlotte Clayton, daughter of
General Powell Clayton, United States
Ambassador, to Baron Moncheur, Belgian
Minister at Washington, was solemnized
this morning, In the private chapel of the
Duchess of Muir. The ceremony was pri
vate and quiet. President and Mme. Diaz
were prevented from attending by the
death of the Mexican Minister to Austria,
brother-in-law of the President, How
ever, Ignaclo Marlscal, Minister of For
eign Relations, was present, as also "was
the diplomatic corps, friends In the Mex
ican colony and prominent families or
Mexico. "The rite was of the Catholic
church, to which the bridegroom belongs.
The civil ceremony, according to Mexican
law, was performed at the United States
Embassy this afternoon. It has created
an excelient Impression here that Ambas
sador Clayton should have complied with
the Mexican law governing marriages.
CUBAN CAMPAIGN MEDALS
Seventy-nve Hnndred "Will Be Issaed
by the Xavy Department.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. Seventy-five
hundred medals is the estimate of the
Navy Department officials of the number
of tokens of recognition which are to be
ordered for the officers and men who par
ticipated in the West Indian naval cam
paign of the Spanish-American War. A
West Indian campaign medal will be be
stowed on every officer, and many who
were in that campaign. The .naval board
of awards recently has been engaged in
deciding upon a number of engagements to
be singled out for special commemoration,
participation in which will mean an extra
bar for each person, to be attached to the
West Indian medals. The battle of San
tiago heads the list of these, and the
board has decided upqn the following oth
er engagements which, in his opinion,
merit distinction: CJenfuegos, Cardenas,
Santiago (cable-cutting expedition,) three
fights at ManzanSUo and Nipe Bay.

Colone Clarence R. Edwards, chief of the
new division of insular affairs of the War
Department for the past year, has Just
been made public. It is a recital In brief
of the vast amount of work accomplished
during the past year by this important
division, the subjects varying from cus
toms administration, postal affairs and
claims to educational, administration and
political affairs, not only In the Philip
pines, but in Cuba as well. Although a
very large number of claims based upon
the use and occupation of real estate by
United States troops and the taking of
personal property by the same have been
disposed of during the year. In many
cases being assessed against municipali
ties, there still remain some 200 such
claims to be adjusted.
The Rich Have Xot Contributed.
CLEVELAND, Jan. 15. Colonel Myron
T. Herrick, treasurer of the McKInley Na
tional Memorial Association, nnd presi
dent of the American Bankers' Associa
tion, said tod
"There bavc n practically no contri
butions to the McKInley memorial fund
from men of wealth or those at the head
of our great commercial and manufactur
ing Institutions, much to my surprise.
They have left the building of this memo
rial to the wage-earners in factories, shops
and stores, and, In fact, to the school
children, who are not faltering in this
expression of their love and confidence In
William McKinlcy. Those mea of means
who should contribute seem to have de
layed or forgotten."

excess of ?10,0d0,000. The National loss
was 5103,500.000. Twenty per cent of the
flres were reported due to defective flues.
Although gasoline is generally supposed
to cause a large percentage of flres, the
report states that In the last year only
10 per cent of the flres was caused by
the explosion of gasoline stoves.

HOW FALKN0R IS INVOLVED
His Candidacy for Congress Inter
woven In the Dissension In.
Thornton County He Is
Allied "With Scobey.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Jan. 15. There is
internecine war of a very bad order in the
Republican party of Thurston County,
and if it were to be confined to this coun-
For
-Vfct .-fcJrrr- -: rl
ty alone It would not be such a serious
matter. But there Is interwoven in the'
dissension here the candidacy of A. J.
Falknor for Congress, and the entire
southwest may ultimately become in
volved. The storm center is in the
United" States land office in this city. J.
OIB. Scobey, who Is prominent in state
politics, and who was one -of the lead
ing candidates for Governor at the last
state convention, has for several years
been the acknowledged leader of the Re
publican forces In Thurston County. Mr.
Scobey is at present Receiver of the land
office, and desires to succeed himself.
It is the determined opposition to Mr.
Scobey's reappointment that Is now en
grossing the attention and developing the
fighting proclivities of numerous Re
publicans who are against what is
known as the machine. Falknor is a.
strong ally of Scobey, and It Is under
stood that the latter will do all In his'
power to make him, the southwest candi
date for Congress the coming Fall In op
position to the claims of Congressman
Cushman for rcnomlnatlon. Here is where
the southwest generally Is Involved.
Scobey's Opponent.
Until quite recently, Scobey appeared to
have it all his own way to succeed him
self, but the anti-Scobey faction has
placed City Treasurer Hagemeyer, a very
popular young man, ln,the field as a can
didate for the Receivership. Hagemeyer
has many endorsements, and his friends
say they will land the office for him. In
order- to make his campaign a more fa
vorable one, Hagemeyer's friends have
forwarded a protest to the President
against Scobey's reappointment, alleging
that the latter has neglected the duties
of the office to attend to his private busi
ness. This provoked a counter-petition,
in which the friends Of Scobey seek to
disprove the charge of neglect. Senator
Fester has endorsed Scobey, while Rep
resentative Cushman is aiding Hage
meyer. The two factions each have their
friends outside the active Republican
workers, and considerable bad feeling has
been worked up. Scobey is editor of a
daily paper, whlfe his opponents have
control of a recently established weekly
paper, and each journal hits the other
over the reappointment matter whenever
opportunity offers.
Falknor Allied "With Scobey.
Some time ago, through The Oregonlan.
Falknor's candidacy was announced. It
was given the usual "early candidacy"
reception. Some papers and party lead
ers in the southwest applauded the an
nouncement, while others deprecated it.
, Slnce tlme the candIdacy matter has
pnnM, from thls eountv. With a Dor-
tlon of the Republicans of his home coun
ty against him, it hardly seems probable
that Falknor's path will be a smooth one
during the coming Summer. The other
counties of the southwest will not be
likely to look upon Falknor, with a sen
timent at home against him. In the same
light as they did Scobey's candidacy for
Governor, when it was known that every
Republican in the county was for him.
and that -he would In the event of nomi
nation for Governor also get a big per
centage of the Democratic vote of Olym
pia and surroundings.
Another matter In connection with the
land office that may prove embarrassing
to Mr. Scobey is the fact that the pres
ent Register, Frank G. Deckcbach, hails
from Chehaiis County. Mr. Deckebach,
while not "an active candidate for "reap
pointment. Is certainly a receptive one,
and a big petition for hi3 reappointment
has been sent in from Chehaiis County.
But the Scobey wing has a candidate for
J Register
in the person of Fred W.
Stocking, of this county. It has not
been usual, nor has It been considered
good politics In the past, to name two
men for the positions of Receiver and
Register from the same county, which
would be the case if the Scobey pro
gramme were to go through. In the pres
ent instance, Chehaiis County Republi
cans are entering a protest against what
they term the "hogglshnesss of Thurston
County," and as Senator Foster has In
dorsed Stocking, the feeling has been
augmented and is reflected on the Sena
tor. How he can cut the Gordlan knot
with safety to his own Interests Is yet
to be seen, but In the meantime there is
trouble galore among the factions In this
city and county.
Say Scobey "Will Knock Him Down.
Falknor's candidacy is endangered
without a doubt. The anti-Scobey wing
openly accuses Scobey of insincerity In
his espousal of Falknor and his desire
to go to Congress. They say Falknor
is being put up only to be knocked down
by Scobey, who Is charged with being
ambitious and of a desire to remove
Falknor from his path. The antls siy
that if Scobey can only get a Republican
convention to sit down hard on Falknor's
boom It will be everlastingly flattened
and Scobey will have a dangerous thorn
removed from, his- path. On the other
hand, the Scobey people assert and re
assert their sincerity in booming Falk-

nor, and say they will stay with him "un
til the cows come home," regardless of
what future asnirations Scobtv mav
' have.
And so It goes. There are criminations
and recriminations on every hand, and
go where you will you may hear talk of
the possibilities of Scobey winning out
or losing and the effect of success or
failure on the Falknor boom. There Is
absolutely no way of telling it this time
how the whole thing may end, but this
much 'may be safely predicted the party
in general will be the loser unless the
factions get together before many moons.
A "WILSON CANDIDATE NOW.
Alonzo M. Murphy BcIiif; Brought
Forward for Congress.

icle today announces that Alonzo M. Mur

PRINCE HENRY'S PLANS.
He Will Join the Hohenxollern at
Newport News.
rw.TtT LTu Tnn 15. Thr lntp?t nrranse-
i menta in connection with the visit of
Admiral Frlnce Henry ot Prussia to me
UnlteG- States Is that the Prince '
will meet the imperial yacht Hoh
enzollern at Newport News. Elab
orate preparations are beinff made
for social entertainments on board the
Hohenzollern. By the Emperor's special
order a splendid silver service has been
sent to Kiel, from the royal silver treas
ures In the o'ld Schloss. His Majesty per
sonally inspected the treasures and se
lected the service which is to be used on
board the Hohenzollern on epeclal occa
sions. Emperor William's programme Is that
Prince Henry shall reciprocate the New
York and Washington festivities with a
grand banquet on 'board the Hohenzol
lern, Inviting the President, the members
of the Cabinet and others. The curator of
the silver treasure goes to the United
States on board the Hohenzollern to take
care of the valuable wares.
Admiral Count van Bauddlssin, who is
to command the Hohenzollern on her
forthcoming visit to New York, arrived
here yesterday. He will go to Potsdam
to see His Majesty prior to sailing for
the United States.
Later In the day It was announced that
the government had decided that Prince
Henry shall sail for the United States on
the Kronprinz Wllhelm. February 15.
The vessel, though taking other passen
gers, will first touch at Newport News,
where Prince Henry and his party will
be transferred to the Hohenzollern. The
movements of the yacht thereafter have
not been absolutely determined upon. The
present programme is to ascend the Po
tomac River to Washington, where Prince
Henry will' exchange calls with President
Roosevelt. Prince Henry and the Presi
dent may then go to the launching to
gether. This portion of the programme
will "depend, of course, on Its acceptance
at Washington.
German naval officers are eager for as
signments to accompany Prince Henry to
the United States, and many young noble
men are bringing Influence to bear to ob
tain appointments for. this duty. The list
of, possible appointments is already several
times larger than the suite which can be
sent with Prince Henry. The lack of ac
commodations for a. number of persons on
board the Hohenzollern "Is the real reason
why Prince Henry does not sail on the Im
perial yacht.
The Frankfurter Zeitung publishes a re
markable editorial today, reviewing the
American-German relations. The paper
says that these were friendly until Ger
man officials displayed sympathies with
Spain at the outbreak of the Spanish
American War. Since that time, the
Frankfurter Zeitung goes on to say, the
German Government has reached the con
clusionsomewhat slowly, perhaps that
the great Republic of the West has be
come a factor with which Germany must
reckon everywhere In Europe, America
and Asia. The paper regards the Immense
development of trade relatxons as facili
tating harmonious co-operation between
the two countries.
The Kaiser Wonld Like to Come, Too
LONDON, Jan. 16. The Candid Friend,
a weekly newspaper, claims to be In a po
sition to make the announcement" that
should Prince Henry's visit to the United'
States be as successful as expected. Em
peror William himself will visit America
in the Autumn with the Hohenzollern and
a large escort of warships.
BERLIN. Jan. 15. Emperor William has
occasionally told Americans that he would
like to visit the United States, and the As
sociated Pres3 has been informed that he
still desires to do so. But there is not the
least probability of his gratifying this de
sire, as reasons of state imperatively for
bid his leaving Germany for the period of
time required to go to the United States,
Just as the duties of President Roosevelt
would prevent him from visiting Germany.
New York's Reception.
NEW YORK. Jan. 15. Mayor Low has
taken up the consideration of plans for
the reception of Prince Henry of Prussia.

large and representative committee of
