BRIDGE GIVES WAY
Sensational Mishap on Mar
quam Gulch,
HORSES AND DRIVER GO DOWN
rive Persona Taken With Collapsed
Structure, but None Is Seri
ously Hurt lively Work
of Rescue.
. The Second-street bridge over Marqtiam
Gulch collapsed yesterday afternoon, tak
ing "with It Ave persons, none of whom
'were seriously injured. A team, of horses
end loaded -wagon belonging to John Cos
Jgrove, an expressman, -went down with
.their driver, but were not killed. The
accident occurred at 4 o'clock and the
resounding crash brought hundreds to the
Ecene, where willing hands were at once
extended to help out the "bruised and
shaken men, and to cut the horses from
beneath the timbers, which pressed cruelly
on their bruised bodies. The entire road
way from Sheridan almost to Arthur
street lies a crumpled mass of slimy tim
bers at the bottom of the deep gulch.
Several old. unoccupied shanties under the
bridge are burled beneath the wreck, and
Chouses ibullt out over the gulch on both
''sides are hanging in the air, without
means of communication. Had the acci
dent -occurred 15 or 20 minutes earlier, a
number of children on their way home
from school "would have gone down to
possible death.
The men who -fell with the structure
were John Cosgrove, who lives at 593
JFourth street, and Michael and Joseph
Bottler, of 653 Second street. These men
were on the north end of the bridge, and
on. the other end David Brenner, a boy of
9 years, who lives at 691 Second street,
and Willie Sigel. a smaller boy, who lives
close by, fell a distance of 40 feet. The
Brenner boy was cut about the head by
a timjrer which fell upon him, but the at
tending physician believes there were no
interjial Injuries, and that the youth will
soonrecover. "Willie Slgcl was uninjured
beyond a few scratches and bruises; but
both'Vboys were badly frightened and
Ehakeq up.
Mlcitoel Bottler is confined to his bed
"'by the. injuries, and the shock which he
received, but will be about again in a few
days. Joseph Bottler and Cosgrove were
bruised in several places. One horse was
taken out with no serious injuries, but the
other wats almost covered by heavy tim
bers, and- was not hoisted out for three
hours.
. The bridge was condemned over a year
ago, and for the past three months has
been 'barricaded at both ends, but the
fence acro3S" the sidewalk had been -sawn
off and there were many foot passenger
over the structure dally. Michael 'Bot
tler's residence faces the "bridge, and is
a few feet past the barricade. Cosgrove's
wagon, loaded with wood for Bottler, was
standing almost in front of the latter's
. house when -the crash came. Some eye
witnesses say that Bottler had removed
the fence that the wood could be thrown
In front of his house, while others ?tate
that the team '.and not the wagon was be
yond the fence, The weight of the team,
the heavy wagon and the two loads of
preen wood which had been previously
piled there, caused the rotten structure to
collapse with a crash, which, echoing
through the gulch, could be heard for
blocks.
The first break.fcamc in the middle, and
V wnenn tram Minfl mpn sllil flown 20
feet or more before protruding timbers
.brought them to a teilt. The two Bottlers
were in the wagon, and Cosgrove was im
mediately behind if. The wagon was
thrown almost on top of the horses, and
was not much damaged, while the animals
fell through the planking and were im
prisoned by the heavy timbers. The slimy
planks and the steep sides of -the gulch
afforded a poor footing for the men, who
worked furiously to cut but the horses,
and their release was thus greatly delayeq.
The poljce were quickly on the scene, and
prevented the crowd from rushing upon
the dangerous approaches, which seemed
liable at any moment to fall ; upon the
heads of those below. .Officer S. Hoge
boom happened to be on his way home
when the crash occurred, and, hearing
the frantic screams of little Brenner and
his companion, climbed over ihe debris
to find the boys almost completely burled.
As the bridge has been condemned and
barricaded, and as the City Engineer has
"given personal warnings to thosfc who.
live outside the fence to vacate 'their
houses, no damage suit can be brought
against the city. That part of the bridge
which fell Is over 400 feet long, and at its
highest point is 90 feet from the ground.
Had either the boys at the south end or
the team and men at the other side baen
-on a hichor part of the structure, they
could hardly have escaped. The bridge
was built some 20 years ago. and is of the
same type as the other high roadways
of the city.
The " bridge on First street, between
Gibbs and Woods streets, only a few
blocks away, has been barricaded for
months, but on Hallowe'en some of the
boys of the neighborhood tore down the
fence and notices, and threw them in the
gulch. The bridge is In a daugerous c6n
ditlon, many of the planks being rotted
out and the sills and caps underneath un
sound. On a dark night a driver would
be unable to see the dancer ahead, and
might drive out on the shaking structure,
bringing it to ruin, as in the case of the
other two driveways that have collapsed
recently. jhe residents of the vicinity
think the City Engineer should replace the
barricades as soon as possible.
TWO GUILTY OF ASSAULT
Smith and James "White Convicted of
Ilittlnpr Plvel, Imt Will Appeal.
More echoes of the assault said to have
been committed by "Mysterious" William
Smith and James and Harry White on
sailors belonging to the British bark Mor
ven. were heard in the Municipal Court
yesterday. Smith and James White were
found guilty, and were each fined' ?40.
but Harry White was . discharged, as it
could not be proved that he struck Paul
li. Pivel, the sailor who swore to the com
plaint The hearing was a tame affair,
and no defense was offered by Lawyer
Dan J. Malarkey. who represented the de
fendants. He remarked that the facts
connected with the case would be con
sidered by a higher court, on a writ of
review. This means that an appeal will
be taken against Municipal Judge Hogue's
decision.
Pivel's evidence was confusing on ac
count of his fluent utterance and want of
familiarity with the English language.
He persisted in saying "He assaulted
me." without giving the iame of the
person .he -referred to. He told how he
and his shipmates were on their way to
the Morven Sunday morning, one week
ago, when they met the White brothers
and Smith. "They asked us if the food
was all right on board the ship, and said
that we were d fools to go back for
the money we were getting. Then he
struck me with his right fist In the face
and "knocked mo down. He had an iron
Instrument in his hand," went on the
witness. Pivel was asked three 'times
who "he" is, and. after considerable dif
ficulty, it was learned that the witness'1
referred to James White, and that the
latter had said: "If you don't leave the
ship, I will kill you." The next witness
was Charles Mullan. and he stated:
"Smith struck me four times in the
mouth, and James White struck Pivel.
After Smith struck me, he said: 'You
can't go on board now
Richard Owen and John Griffen told
of another assault committed by the de
fendants. "Smith twice struck me, on
Russell street;" stated Owen. "Harry
White also struck a carpenter." "Harry
White struck me In tlje jaw and knocked
me down. I do not know why he struck
me," testified Griffen. On motion of Mr.
Malarkey, the evidence of Owen and
Griffen was stricken from the record in
the Plvel case, and will be considered in
a new case to be started on a warrant to
be sworn out by Owen.
MONEY FOR CLARK FUND
Colonel Mitchell Says Portland Has
Contributed Its Share.
Colonel R. W. Mitchell, secretary of the
Admiral Clark testimonial committee,
has had some correspondence with Squire
Farrar, Senator-elect from Marlon County,
in regard to the fund raised. Mr. Farrar
wrote to Colonel Mitchell October 27, say
ing: "Inclosed please find draft for 520 25, re
sults of what little effort we have made
for subscription to the Admiral Clark
testimonial. It looks as if you had made
a mistake In the selection of a chairman
for your auxiliary committee. I found
some subscribers who said they had sub
scribed for this testimonial some two
LOSS TO MEN WHS TRAVEL

THE PORTLAND HOTEL.
Becomes a. Soldier While a Boy Vet
eran and Popular Hotel
Clerk, Also.
A loss was suffered yesterday, not only
by his many associates in the hotel busi
ness, but by many theatrical and com
mercial men, in the death of Charles Ben
nett Jacobs, chief clerk at the Portland
Hotel. His death came unexpectedly, for
he was only . taken ill last Wednesday
evening, In the office of the hotel. He
was removed to St Vincent's Hospital,
where he died about 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, of an obstruction of the bow
els. Mr. Jacobs, had the distinction of being
one of the youngest soldiers who served
in the Union Army in the Civil War.
He was born at Cincinnati, O., May 22,
1849, and enlisted April 19, 1SG1, as a pri
vate in the Fifth Ohio Infantry. His two
half-brothers were soldiers In the regular
Army, and he had enlisted prior to the
outbreak of the. war, but on account of
his extreme youth they secured his re
lease. But he did not lose much time

lation, arid It may be the first before
many years.
"Idaho Is seeing a period of unprecedent
ed prosperity, and there- has been great
Immigration to the state during the last
year, mostly of farmers from Nebraska.,
Illinois, Indiana and Iowa. They are
going particularly to the St. Anthony
branch, which has been built for 60 miles
toward Yellowstone Park. That section
raises the finest wheat in the West, and
I understand that an extension of the
branch to the "boundary of the park is
contemplated."
Mr. Van Houser is at the Perkins with
his wife, whom he has brought to the
lower altitudes for the benefit of her
health. He contemplates making his
home In Western Oregon, being favorably
impressed with the country, and it" is
likely that he will again engage In the
railroad business In this section.
WELCOME TO CONVENTION
Advocates of Irrigation Will Be Re
ceived With Glad Hand.
The entertainment committee of Irri
gation week was hard at' woTk yesterday.
It held three sesslons-bne in. the morn

meet again this afternoon at 4 o'clock to
perfect its- plans.

years ago;. surely this matter has not
been hanging fire for two years in a four
bit town like Portland."
To this Colonel Mitchell replied the fol
lowing day, saying:
"I am pleased to acknowledge receipt of
yours of the 27th with draft of $20 25. The
same has been turned over to Treasurer
Ladd." -You need offer no excuses; you
have, under adverse circumstances, done
well, and I thank you sincerely.
"As to those who state they had al
ready contributed, I have not a shade of
doubt they are correct, but. the trouble
has been to get at the names, dates and
amounts. Mr. Share, a veteran of tre
Civil War and a comrade- of mine! who
started the effort two years'ago, died sud
denly at New Whatcom. His trunk, af
ter his death, was rifled at Olympia, and
some of his papers' and a pass-book he
used to keep data In have never been
found. When I took up, the work his
widow turned- all the papers, letters, etc.,
over to me that could be found. -I called
Mr. Ladd's attention to some of the let
ters I received, wherein the writers said
they had already contributed. Yesterday
he wrote:
" 'We have personally caused to be ex
amined each deposit slip since October 4,
1S9S, but find np memoranda thereon
showing from whom came the contribu
tions. Mr. Share was accustomed to
bring the money in and ask the teller to
fill out the slip, which was done. Mr.
Share never reported to me" any of the
names of the contributors. I supposed
that he kept them all himself. Regretting
that I cannot be of . assistance to you in
determining the early contributions, I re
main,' etc.
"So you will see that we have "done the
best we could in that direction.
"As to the matter hanging fire in Port
land, that is not peculiar to this city; it
has- prevailed all over the state. Portland
has done her share, and so. far It will
amount to over three-fifths of the amount
raised," and slJe is not half" through. If I
can help It. I say It myself, and there
Is none to contradict, a corpse was raised
from the deadest kind of (he dead and Is
now In the full " vigor of, health, thanks
to you and men like unto you. The Ore
gonian of tomorrow will give you a fair
status of matters and things as usual."
"This correspondence," said Colonel
Mitchell, "will give a clear insight Into
the matter to which it relates.. The total
sum deposited by Mr. Share before his
death " was $313 I9. The amount how on
deposit and in .sure sight is about $1100.
This , committee will stop when It ap
proaches $1500. Mr. Dadd'e statement- is
clear and clean. It sets at rest the state
ment of those who ,say they have - al
ready performed their duty and leaves
them free to subscribe de novo, but this
I wish to avoid, feeling sure that with a
little more effort the requisite amount
will be forthcoming.
"I am not alarmed at the . irrigation
people des.iring to raise a fund with
which properly to entertain their guests
during their convention. Irrigation Is a
fine thing for the state, and, personally,
I want it made a success. The convention
will be composed of wide-awake,' patri
otic people, having the prime Interests of
Oregon at heart. Its personnel will repre
sent the real thing In and of Oregon. Do
you know. I have half a mind to take up
a collection during the sessions of the
convention? Interfere with Its pro
gramme? Of course not. We are so used
to standing aside that it will be no hard
ship for us to go back in this case. I
want to say, however, if any one has a
dollar to spare and wishes to give 90
cents toward promoting Irrlgatlbn. we are
going after the remaining 10 cents. Oh,
.this, whole thing should have been spon
taneous, and If I had had anything to
do with It In the beginning it w'ould have
been so."

stay in the service this time. Although
not yet 12 years old, he was unusually
large for his age, and passed muster as
well as many older boys. He served
through the war and took part In some
of the greatest battles, being mustered
out In August, 1SC5, as Captain and brevet
Major on General Pardee's staff.
Within a short time after the close of
the war he went into the hotel business,
his first position being clerk of the Bates
at Indianapolis. From there ho went as
chief clerk to the West, at Minneapolis,
when it was , opened. Since then he has
been at the Caronado. zt Coronado Beach,
Cal.. and the Holieribeck, at Lros Angeles.
He left the latter house to become chief
clerk at the Portland, where he arrived
on October 5, 1S99, and where he. has been
in active service ever since.
During his-long career in the hotel bus

among the traveling public, with whom
his name was the synonym for geniality,
courtesy and go'od-fellowship. He always

POCATELLO IS GROWING.
Short Line Has Built Xcvr Shops and
Settlers Pour In.
"The Oregon Short Line has spent S4S0.O00
on shops) and other improvements at' Po
catello, Idaho, during the last year," said
H. E. Van Houser, .formerly superintend
ent of the Short' ILine at that town. In
talking with The Oregonian yesterday.
"The company expects to spead an equal
amount in the same way next year,- and
will do all repairs to cars and engines
there. Pocatello is principally a railroad
town, being the headquarters of-the su
perintendent of the division extending
from Granger to Huntington, and from
Huntington to Butte. The -new shops will
have facilities not only to repair, but to
build cars and engines, although few rail
roads uo that work for themselves, as they
find it more economical to have It ,done
by contract.
"But Pocatello Is more than a railroad
town. It Is on the Fort Hall Indian res
ervation, 4S2.0C0 acres of which was thrown
open to settlement last June. It is the
center of a good sheepraislng and stock

Irrigation works around there, with five

"Portland has many attractions for vis
itors to see," yesterday remarked H. D.
Rarrtldell, chairman of" the general com
mittee. "Many residents of the city are
oblivious of them. Take, for example,
the Custom-House building. How many
Portlanders have been through that hand

Ben Selling, chairman of the entertain

he yesterday, "and we expect to make an
arrangement with them tomorrow."
Chairman Ramsdell has appointed sub

WILL TRY TO ECONOMIZE
City Physician and Health O nicer
Promise County "Must Help Also.
The Board of Health, at Its regular
monthly meeting in the office of Mayor
Williams, yesterday afternoon, consid
ered the curtailment of the expenses In
the offices of the City Physician and the
Health Commissioner. The accounts of
City Physician Zan and Health Commis
sioner Blersdorf were found correct, but
it was thought that a reduction in the
monthly charges could be made. The
greatest expense arose from the hospitals
and grocery and drug supplies, and Drs.
Zan and Blersdorf said they would reduce
them as far as practicable.
It was stated that the city Is now and
has been paying for the care of patients
who are properly chargeable to the coun
ty. Most of these are what are termed
"emergency cases." The City Physician
is summoned, and. as the patients have
no money, he attends them. Often these
cases should go to the County Hospital,
and the board will endeavor to make
some arrangement with the County Com
missioners whereby they may be cared
for. Dr. Zan was instructed to refer all
cases where Immediate attention is not
required to the County Physician.
Dr. Samuel C. Slocum was retained as
Assistant City Physician. The board
heard explanations as to the necessity
for his employment, and decided that he
should remain In office (for the present.
