Board Is Carried Far
Out From Land.
TORN TO PIECES IN STORM
Thirty or More Crushed to Death,
Some Drowned and Survivors
Are Picked Up From
Wreckage.
KEY" WEST. Fla.. Oct. 23. 8urvlvors
from one of the houseboats on the Florida
East Coast Railway extension along the
Keys tell a harrowing tale of death and
destruction caused by the storm of
Thursday.
W. P. Dusenberry. civil engineer in
charge of the work on Long Key, arrived
here on the Russian steamer Jennie,
among other survivors rescued. He says
houseboat No. 4, on which were 150 men,
was struck by the storm at 5 o'clock
Thursday morning and was driven out
Into the gulf. At 6 o'clock the houseboat
began to break up and as the great waves
hit her. men. singly and In bunches of
two and three, were washed into the sea
and drowned.
Some went below for protection, but
when the top of the boat was carried
away, the waves rushed In and the boat
soon went to pieces. 31 or 40 of the men
being crushed to death in- the collapse,
the others grabbing timbers to save them
selves from drowning. Dusenberry was in
the hold, but succeeded in getting on to a
log and floated until Friday night.
On one piece of timber 16 men were
clinging and trine were hanging to an
other. The sides of the houseboat were
crowded with men. It turned over three
times, each time reducing the number.
The steamer Jennie sighted the wreck
age and succeeded In rescuing the 99 men
who were brought here. Three other
steamers were picking up dead and alive
men when the Jennie left the scene.
There was another houseboat with 150
men on board at Long Key, which Mr.
Dusenberry thinks was also swept to sea.
There were in all ten boats at Long Key.
mortar mixers, dredger and other boats
engaged In the work. The survivors were
furnished food and clothing from the
East Coa.t Railway commissary here and
were given medical attention.

How German Government Collects
Tax on Denatured Alcohol.
OREGOMAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Oct, 21. American farmers inter
ested In the manufacture of denatured
alcohol under the terms of the bill passed
at the last session of Congress, can gather
a helpful hint from a statement recently
issued by the Department of Commerce
and Iabor. showing the manner In which
the German farmers are manufacturing
alcohol from their waste products. The
statement, in question follows:
"Representative E. J. Hill, of Connecti
cut, who assisted the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue to formulate the rules
under which the free alcohol law went
into effect on October 1. spent most of
the Summer In Europe with Commissioner
Yexkes In investigations on this subject.
Mr. Hin states that Germany was the
country in which the most progress was
found to have been made in the direc
tion of applying denatured alcohol for the
development of industrial purposes. There
are 70,000 farm distilleries in Germany,
many of them being very small, and Mr.
Hill was asked how the German Govern
ment could afford to furnish an inspector
to each one of these distilleries. He re
plied: There is no difficulty in that respect. The
stills have to be made In a certain way,
which Includes a tank that can be locked
with a Government lock and sealed with a
Government seal. The small farm distille
ries do not operate all the year round. They
operate In the Winter when the farmer has
leisure to do something: other than straight
farm work. The farmer has to give the
Government 30 days' notice as to the time
he wants to begin to operate his still. Some
time during the 30 days an inspector comes
along and looks the still over to see that
It is clean, etc.. end then he locks and seals
the tank, after which the still is ready for
the farmer.
He may go ahead and distill until the
tank Is full. Then he Informs the person
who Is to buy the alcohol from him, after
which he notifies the Government, and an
Inspector comes and removes the seal, meas
ures the contents of the tank, and collects
the revenue. If the farmer wants to denature
the alcohol on the spot he can do so In the
presence of an Inspector, when the amount
of the tax will be returned to him. But gen
erally the farmers sell through the great
central selling agencies, which denature at
a central point and in large quantities, and
collect the rebate from the Government in
considerable sums. Thus the Government
agents are not required to spend any appre
ciable time at any one farm, and one in
spector can cover a large territory. Mean
while the central selling agency pays tha
farmer on the basis of beverage alcohol and
rebates for all that Is denatured. It is a
good system and is not very expensive to the
Government.

DEMOCKATS Rt'N INDEPENDENT
Three Men Will Try for .Cou nty Of
fices in Lewis.
CHEHAL1S, Wash.. Oct 21. (Special.)
For the first time in a number of years
an Independent ticket has been put in the
field in Lewis County, the-candidates be
ing nominated by petition. There are
three of them, all Democrats, and their
candidacy is an outgrowth of dissatisfac
tion at the results of the recent Demo
cratic convention, held in this city. The
convention nominated a complete ticket
and this one and the Republican county
ticket are the only complete .tickets which
will appear on the official ballot.
The independent candidates, who have
bolted the regular Democratic candidates
for the same positions, are: Theodore T.
Spurgcon, for County Attorney; George
Geissler, for Sheriff, and C. W. Long, for
County Commissioner of the second dis
trict. SVnrgeon and Geissler are resi
dents of Chehalis. Ixng is a resident of
Roistfort Precinct, and was the regular
Democratic candidate for Commissioner
of this district two years ago. Geissler.
was defeated for the nomination for
Sheriff in the Democratic convention, the
honor going to Edward Deggelier, of this
city, who was for two terms Sheriff, up
to four years ago. .
Spurgeon was not a candidate before
the Democratic convention this Fall;
neither was Mr. .Long, but other men
wore, and it is alleged that the nomina
tion went to ex-Attorney M. A. Lang
horne for Attorney and to Charles Gessell
for Commissioner by trickery. Meantime
Republicans are pretty generally united in
support of their ticket, and the success
of it from Representatives down to Cor
oner Is predicted.

HILL FIGHTS HARD
Opposes Invasion of Puget
Sound by Every Means.
COUNCIL. ACTS : SLOWLY
Plan of Campaign Is Very Similar
Against Three Great Transconti
nental Unes That Are Trying
to Reach. Salt Water. .
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 21. :Speclal.)
James Hill is fighting, bitterly to
prevent the coming of more railroads to
Seattle, yielding- an inch at a time in
the effort to protect, this territory for
the Northern PuQlilej Great Northern
nnri Burlinirtoii; Every step the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, Union Pa- j
cine and Canadian facinc nave ia.eii
has been opposed by Hill, and there is a.
Bimilarity in Hill's manner of meeting
each new attack by a new road that
suggests St. Paul officials .have in.
Btructed local representatives, to stand
on a fixed policy of opposition.
Hill tied up the Chicago. Milwaukee
& -St. Paul franchises here unt.l the
piibllc'took the question from the "Sands
of the -Council in the last municipal
campaign and virtually compelled the
granting of the St." Paul's franchise on
the terms the road proposed. Then Hill
executed a flank attack on. the St.
Paul's right to enter the -city by way of
Cedar River Valley, ' through land ac
quired by the city to protect its munici
pal water supply. .
With almost Identical tactics to those
employed in fighting the St. Paul, Hill
has tied up Harrlman's franchises here
since March. The Harriman interests
were in no rush for a franchise when
the application was made, but since
that time hafe tried strenuously to
overcome the opposition of the Hill ln
terjsts. Canadian Paciric Hides Hand.
Though Canadian Pacific officials
have stated the line would ie extended
to Seattle, there has been no buying of
terminals uncovered here, and the Ca
nadian Pacific plans are shrouded in
mystery. The Canadian Pacific now en
ters Seattle over the Northern Pa
cific's coast line under a trackage lease.
This lease was extended another year
In May, and it temporarily provides for
the Canadian Pacific. That road will
probably have to come in from the
north, and Hill is buying a new right
of way across the northern entrance to
the city, to be found sitting in the door
way when the Canadian line attempts
to enter.
Hill officials believed for years they
had Seattle closed to rival lines. The
Northern Pacific has cramped yardr at
Argo, adjoining the city on the south,
that nearly close up an entrance to the
city from that direction. Hill interests
proposed to acquire lands in the -north
end that would plug up that entrance
to the city. On the east are the hills,
and on the west the waters of the
Sound. Hill delayed too long In clos
ing a deal for the property that would
block a northern entrance, and Harri
man secured It as a part of his local
terminal scheme.
Strategy of the St. Paul.
The St. Paul overcame the Northern
Pacific obstacles in the south by secur
ing a 99-year trackage agreement from
the Columbia A Puget Sound, a small
inforced twenty-six-inch concrete walls, steel lined,, with
electric wiring of the latest device to show the slightest
tampering. Just the place for your valuable papers, jewels,
etc. . As a special inducement we will give to renters of

"coal road" owned by the Pacific Coast
Company that' has a right -'of ' way -fo"r-two
tracks leading into the city-. Har
riman will' force a crossing over the
Northern Pacific's tracks.
When the St. Paul began its fight for
a franchise the Northern Pacific, Great
Northern and Columbia & Puget Sound
Immediately asked for trackage rights
on th streets' the St. Paul wanted to
use. On one thoroughfare the Hill
lines already had tracks, and IJili
agents inspired a protest from property-owners
against granting any fur
ther franchises on the street. But the
big fight was made by the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern against
tracks on Whatcom avenue, a water
front street fronting on the property
the St. Paul had bought for docks.
Both roads demanded franchises.
When popular sentiment compelled the
Council, at the close of last Spring's mu
nicipal election, to grant the St. Paul's
franchise, the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern dropped their demand .for. track
age rights. Though there is room on this
street for more tracks, the two Hill roads
lost interest in it when the St. Paul won
Its fight. . . .
Sanitary Experts Brought In-
Dr. Parke Willis. Northern Pacific sur
geon, was in the East a- short time after
the St. Paul obtained permission to build
through the Cedar River Valley over land
acquired by the city in the protection of
its water supply. Dr. Willis brought home
a theory that the railroad would contam
inate the water supply, stirred up the op
position of the King County Medical So
ciety and compelled the St Paul to em
ploy five sanitary experts to disprove Wil
lis' claims. Before the city was satisfied
three of the most prominent, experts in
this country were brought here as municT
ipal arbiters, and they agreed with the
St. Paul's experts that the road would
not Injure the water supply.
Hafriman's franchise application drew
attention from the St. Paul invasion, and
the Hill opposition was turned in an ef
fort to keep put Harriman. The Harri
man interests own more terminal ground
in Seattle than all the Hill roads com
bined, and .have already invested more
money here than all the other railroad in
terests combined.
For Hill's benefit the entire tideland
district in the southern part of the city
was replatted and a number of street, va
cations were made to accommodate his
terminals.' But when Harriman asked the
privilege of . entering to his passenger de
pot grounds over Fourth avenue, the Hill
Interests immediately precipitated a bitter
fight. With half a dozen exceptions, every
property-owner along the street protested
and lined up with Hill to fight the en
trance of the Harriman road.
Right of Way Covered With Water.
Fourth avenue at present is shown only
on the maps. Where the street is planned
the tides ebb and flow, and the only way
one might pass over the thoroughfare
would be In a boat. It will cost a fortune
to fill the street $3500 per lot, it is esti
mated, if street, sewer and water im
provements are added but the Hill oppo
sition declared a principal thoroughfare
would be ruined .if Harriman were per
mitted to lay tracks on Fourth avenue.
The public regarded the fight with more
or less indifference, consoling itself with
the belief that Harriman would come in
somehow; and the Council has been con
fronted for seven months with a bitter
opposition of property-owners and the Hill
interests. So the Council procrastinated
until local Hill officials went from excuse
to excuse, until, they finally proposed a
joint right of way for both the Hill and
Harriman lines up Fifth avenue. Then
Harriman executed his coup by bringing
condemnation proceedings to force an .en
trance to Seattle.
There Is a striking similarity between
the two Hill campaigns against the St.
Paul and the Harriman system the op
position of property-owners; the applica
tion for l-Illl franchises where rival roads
wanted them and tne procrastination of
a Council .that has been listening to Hill
for years. The St, Paul won its fight be
cause an opportune municipal election
gave the public a chance to demand action
of the Council; Harriman is forcing the
issue by an appeal to the courts.

FUEL FAMINE IN SPOKANE
COAL NOT TO BE HAD AND WOOD
SUPPLY IS SHORT.
Pullman and Other Towns in the
Pa louse Country Are In Sim
ilar Predicament.
SPOKANE. "Wash., Oct. 21. ( Special. )
With chilling frosts prevailing and the
Winter coming on, Spokane faces a fuel
famine. Coal is not to be had. Inquiry
of all the fuel companies discloses empty
bins and no prospect of shipments. The
supply from Roslyn has stopped and the
Wyoming mines are sending none at pres.
ent.
Wood dealers stated today that they
have on hand enough to supply the city's
fires for only one day. More is coming
by railroad, but a prolongation of the cold
snap would mean a cleaning out of every
yard. Wood retails for $7 a cord and the
price . is advancing.
Pullman ana all points in the Palouse
country are threatened with a fuel famine.
In fact, the famine is now being felt In
many places. . There is no coal or wood
to be had In many towns, And prices are
steadily advancing. Wood cannot be se
cured here, and the last sold at $7.50 de
livered. Not a carload of coal has been
received for several weeks, and there
seems to be little prospect of the shortage
being relieved in the near future.
The price of coal has not advanced, but
it is impossible to get It . at any price.
Dealers say they have had orders In for
three months, and have no information
when they will be filled. The situation Is
growing serious, and should a cold wave
strike the country soon, there will be suf
fering for want of fuel.

absolutely certain of curing every case I
take?
My practice has demonstrated that no ail
ment peculiar to men Is Incurable. Failure
to cure Is usually due to lack of knowledge
and Improper treatment. You may consult
me free of charge and learn your exact con
dition. I will not urge my services, nor will
I accept your case unless I am positive of
my ability to cure you.
"WEAKNESS"
I am the only physician employing: sclontlflc mcaaurcs in treating func
tional weakness and thoroughly and permanently curing everv caw. I
accept no incurable cases at ail, and if I treat you, you can feel assured
of a radical cure, and I am always willing to wait for my fee until a
cure Is effected.
VARICOCELE, SPERMATORRHEA. LOST VIGOR, ORR4NIC WEAKNESS.-
CONTRACTED DISORDERS, STRICTURE, SPECIFIC BLOOD
POISOJI and PILES. I also treat and cure promptly and thoroughly. 4
EXAMINATION FREE
I offer not only FREE Consultation and Advice, but of every case
that comes te me I will make a Careful Examination and Diagnosis
without charge. No ailing man should neglect this opportunity to get
expert opinion about his trouble.
