DITCH PET NT Two off the Six Passengers Hurt Will Probably Die of Their Injuries SPIKES PULLED ON CURVE Four Previous Attempts JIave Been Made Within a Few Months to Wreck Train Near Kan--sus Town. EMPORIA, Kan, May 11. Santa Fe passenger train No. 37was ditched by train wreckers a mile east -of town at 2:30 o'clock this morning. Six passengers were injured and two will probably die.

This is the fourth attempt in the last four months to wreck passenger trains In the same place. Previous attempts were made by piling! tie on the track, and were without serious result. The wreck today was caused by removing the spikes and fishplates of two rails on the inside of a curve. The engine -passed over the loose rails safely, but the mail-car left .the track and was dragged 100 yarda along the em bankment before the train was stopped. The next five car?, the express and baggage-cars, the smoker and two coaches, went into the ditch. The end of the bag gage car went up ir. the air high enough to ground the telegraph wires. Two Pull man sleepers remained on the track. The passengers were alseep when the wreck occurred, and became greatly ex cited, but soon formed a wrecking crew and went to the relief of the men in the overturned baggage-car. A window was broken, and of seven mpn in the car, six were found injured. Stretchers were made from car doors and the wounded were carried to a noar-by field, where a hospital was improvised. An hour after the wreck -a .relief train arrived from Emporia a ad the injured were taken to Emporia. A hundred work men were put to work on" the track, and it was cleared for use again this after noon. There 1s no clue to the wreckers. Three men were seen last night near the How ard Branch, section-house.

M.)-Detailed confirmatory information concerning Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's use of Indo-China waters has reached the Japanese govern ment from a arioty of sources, both offi cial and private. A high Japanese official today sketched to the Associated Press the important acts of the Russian fleet since France was first moved to preserve neutrality. He said: "The Governor-General of Indo-China officially reported that the Russian fleet had entirely departed from Katnranh Bay on April 22. but on April 23 there still re mained In the bay one cruiser, one torpedo-boat destroyer and 15 transports of the Russian fleet. On April 24 the entire Russian fleet re-entered Kamranh Bay and rode at anchor until April 2G. when a majority of the warships sailed, leaving behind four converted cruisers and one torpedo-boat destroyer. These latter ves sels took supplies of coal and provisions. "April 26. toward evening, these vessels stopped and examined the German steam er Loosok and" the Norwegian steamer Providence, which passed outside the bay. April 27, more than 20 Russian vessels were anchored at Honkohe. and at 5 o'clock in the afternoon they stopped and examined the British steamer Stettin, which was passing. "According to the French official roport Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky promtsed Ad miral do Jonqulcrs that he would leave Honkohe ?Iay 3. It is evident, however, that the Russians were anchored at Hon kohe May 8. , "The latest telegrams from Indo-China indicate the presence at Honkohe on May 12 of seven Russian battleships, seven cruisers, two torpedo-boat destroyers and four converted cruisers. "Since the appearance of the Russian fleet in the Far East. Saigon has become a baso for the transportation of military supplies for Vlce-Admlral Rojestvensky's fleet. The number of vessels furnishing supplies to -the Russians is so great that those which were anchored at Saigon .May 5 were countable by tens. Steamer Carlisle Is Detained. SAIGON. May 14. The British steamer t arllsle has been detained here on suspi cion of carrying contraband of war. The steamer Carlisle, under charter to the Russian government to carry sup plies from Vladivostok to Port Arthur before the capture of the latter place by the Japanese, lost her propeller and drifted to San Miguel Bay, Island of Luzon, whence she was towed to Manila. The acting Russian consul at Manila infused the request of the Carlisle's cap tain to commuulcate with his government regarding "the disposition of the vessel's cargo. Early in March It was reported that Japanese in fishing sampans made four attempts to sink the Carlisle, but were repulsed by the customs guard on board the vessel, wh6 fired upon the sam pans. No Coal for Saigon. TOKIO, May 15. (Noon.) The govern ment has prohibited- the exportation of coal to Saigon. The embargo is to con tinue so long as the Russian fleet is In Indo-Chinese waters. .Longed-lor the Old Dog. Kansas City -Times.

Four more of the persons injured in Wednesday night's tornado died today Miss Mize, Mr. Paul son, John McCarl and Miss Busser bring ing the total number of -known dead to 117. A number of persons are missing and sev eral of the injured are in a critical condi tion. Sightseers who came to town op the railroad made trouble for the doctors and nurses. Much more welcome were 150 men who came from Hobart with tools and building material and gave their services free to putting partially wrecked houses into habitable condition. "Relief is com ing from many quarters money, bedding, clothing and food. This assistance is urg ently needed. There was no rain today and conditions are more cheerful. A pockctbook containing $32 was picked, up today, 19 miles from Snyder. It be-, longed to Mrs. James, who was killed, and it was carried 23 miles in the storm. A heavy wind and rainstorm visited Olustee, Okla., yesterday. An elevator was blown across the railroad track and a few small buildings were damaged, but no person was Injured. Why Buy at Sales? Why Buy at Olds, Wortman & King's? If a store is honest, a "sale" means much of economy to the purchaser. One day last wee a lady who was a stranger to the store, came in to purchase several articles, being attracted by the special sale prices advertised in the newspapers. She shopped carefully took her time and when she had finished said:. "This sale is a surprise to me. Why, I have actually saved as much as you claimed in the papers. I b elite ve even more." Thousands of Portland folk know she judged rightly. So both questions are answered at once. Every value advertised is GENUINE. The regular price is just as advertised the standard set by prices of standard first-class stores of the Marshall Field and Wanamaker class throughout the country; the selling prices are our own as advertised. Your savings are the difference between the two. And savings were never greater, or plentier, than today. Of course you're going to share we'll expect you.

The family Income is J82T.19 a year, of which $326.90 is spent for food.

In a dispatch to The Oregonlan yesterday. Judge W. B. Gilbert, presiding Justice of the L tilted States Court of Appeals, announced that Judge DeHaven had been chosen to hold court in Portland beginning June 12.

The fiction of the friend who is coming to occupy the seat In the railway train that one has really secured as an extra seat fer one's self sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. A passenger, . hurry ing along the platform just befere the train started, flung himself upon a seat that was already occupied with a Glad stone bag. "That seat is taken," said a morose old gentleman; "my friend has kept it with his bag." "All right." said the wily passenger affably, "I'll occupy It till he comes." Of course the friend never came, and just as the train was moving out of the station the wily pas senger seized the bag and threw it out of the window. "What 'are you doing, sir?" shouted the old gentleman, furi ously. "Anything the matter?" inquired the other. "Ton don't want your poor friend to lose his bag. do your Troubles of Nebraska -Hostess. Nebraska State Journal. A lady said recently: "I wlh somebody would make gutets understand that the hostess is the only one with the right to run a party. Twice recently I have been at Informal afternoon companies where some guest has broken up the gathering by Insisting that refreshments be served at aft hour to suit herself. "On one such occasion we were invited for bridge, and the lady who asked for refreshments early skipped out after she had eaten her luncheon to keep an ap pointment with a dressmaker. Of course we re left one short. The hostess was annoyed and all the rest of us cross, so we put on our wraps and went home. "At another affair, where a guest In sisted on interfering with the arrange ments, the hostess Anally . exclaimed: This, is my party, and Til have it the way I want It!' And she did, but all hostesses have not the. nerve to- quell such disturbance."' - -
