XI 1 12 MOKIVING OREGONIAN, jvJSS AUGUST 1907. E WITH" ONE BULLET George W. Delamater, Once Quay's Candidate for Governor. PURSUED BY EVIL LUCK Once Conspicuous Banker and Poli tician of Pennsylvania Who Split Party, Blows Out Brains With in Week After Son's Death. PITTSBURG. Pa., Auk. 7. (Special.) George Wallace Delamater, ex-State Senator, Republican candidate for Gov ernor In 1890, and for many years one of Pennsylvania's conspicuous political leaders, brought a long and eventful career, dimmed by political and finan cial reverses, to an abrupt end this afternoon by shooting himself In the Vight temple. After carefully arranging all of his private papers and insurance policies and writing a farewell note to his son " In-law, Shirley P. Austin, he accom panied a friend to luncheon, returned to his office, locked the door, and al most immediately fired the shot that ended his life. Worry over business affairs and the ; sudden death of his only son, J. S. Delamater, who was found dead about a week ago, are believed to have caused him to end his life. Mr. Delamater was president of the ' Pennsylvania Steel Tie Company, and heavily Interested In the American Aluminum Coaling Company. After the failure of the private bank of Delamater & Company In Pittsburg In 1890, Mr. Delamater went to Seattle, where he remained until 1900, meeting with many vicissitudes and reverses. He returned to Pittsburg in 1900, and since that time . he. had been engaged in the Insurance business and had been very successful, his Income ranging from 110,000 to $15,000 per year. Mr. Delamater Is best remembered aa Senator Quay's defeated candidate for Governor In 1890. Quay forced his nomination on the Republican conven tion against the violent opposition of the Magee faction of Pittsburg, which had strong allies in other parts of the state. The latter faction, which had supported Robert E. Pattison, Demo crat, in 1882 and brought about his election, again supported Mr. Pattison, who received the Democratic nomina tion. Mr. Delamater was then presi dent of a bank at Meadville. He spent money lavishly on hia campaign, tour ing the state on a special train with many speakers. He was defeated and within a day or two a run on the bank forced Its closing. He was arrested for receiving deposits after he knew the bank to be insolvent, which offense is legally embezzlement. - He was ac quitted, and with' the wreck of his for tune, moved first to Tacoma, then to i Seattle. CHARGED WITH FORGERY Duncan Campbell Sayers, Prominent Episcopalian, in Trouble. CHICAGO. Aug. 7. Duncan Campbell. Sayer's, secretary of St. Paul's Cathedral 6ociety of Garden City, L. I., formerly a member of the faculty of that Episcopal institute, was arrested last night in this . city, charged with forgery. The com plainant named was Rev. Paul S. Swett, a member of the governing committee of the school, at the head of which are Bishop Burgess, Alex Orr and George Foster Peabody. Mr. Sayers, who Is 63 years old and sin gle, was taken to Garden City. No de tails of the alleged forgery have yet been disclosed, except the bare statement that there were discrepancies in his accounts. The many friends of the accused hope that the trouble will prove due simply to his ignorance of the proper way to keep accounts. Mr. Sayers, while a member of the faculty of Cathedral Institute several years ago, risked his life in a vain at tempt to save the school from being blown up by the gas plant. The en gineer had abandoned his post and there was a call for volunteers to turn off the pressure at the gas plant. Mr. Sayers dashed to the basement. As he entered the plant exploded. Sayers' nose was blown off and he was disfigured for life. Since then he has been very nervous and Irritable and altogether changed.

BIG CYANIDE MILLS BURN Spectacular Fire In Colorado Makes Hundreds Idle. COLORADO SPRINGS. -Colo:, Aug. 7. The Golden Cycle Mining ' Company's $1,000,000 reduction plant located in the foothills south of Colorado City, was practically destroyed today by fire. Ihe fire originated in the roasting rooms and rapidly spread to other buildings which cover an area of ten acres. Lack of water and inadequate fire-fighting facili ties made the work of the firemen diffi cult and it was only by herotc -efforts that the fire was finally brought under control after three-fourths of the plant hac" been destroyed. Thirty-seven freight . cars were also consumed. The ,flre was very spectacular. The mills are so situated In the hills that an excellent view of the conflagration could be had from ail parts of Colorado Springs. It is thought the destruction of the mills will result in the closing of several mines at Cripple Creek, thereby throwing hun dreds of men out of employment. The plant was formerly known as the Telluride mills, owned by New York capi talists, and -was Involved in the- mill men's strike which terminated in the Cripple Creek labor difficulties. Shortly after the strike the mills closed down and were taken over by St. Louis parties, who rebuilt the plant. .The mill had been in operation but a few weeks and Is the largest cyanide plant In the West. The loss is estimated at $700,000, with $300,000 insurance. BOMBS FOR MISSIONARIES They Inject Religion by Trance and Xutmeggers Object. GREENWICH, Conn., Aug. 7. Resi dents of the village of Pemberwlck and nearby hamlets are stirred up over the advent of a man and woman call ing themselves field missionaries of tna "Apostolic Faith." Their revival ENDS MISFORTUN meetings have been well attended, and stories which started of probable witch craft and hypnotism have so inflamed the country folk that their safety Is threatened. Sunday night a mob gath ered, and some one threw a bomb filled with liquid Into a room in which a meeting was In progress.! The liquid burned the missionaries and filled the room with a gas that almost suffocated those present. Monday night another crowd tore down a tent which the mis sionaries had occupied and the torch was applied. . The missionaries describe themselves as Brother Adolph de Rosa, a Portu guese, and Sister Lucy M. Leatherman, formerly a missionary in the Holy Land. They deny that they practice hypnotism in the generally accepted sense of that term. They attribute the partial trance state of their devotees at meetings to re ligious fervor. Those who have been converted to the Apostolic faith in Pem berwick defend the missionaries. De Rosa, whose life has been threatened, in speaking of the charges made against him, says: ' "Wo believe that our apostles have the power of casting out devils and of healing. We do not practice hypnotism. Those brothers and sisters who were seen upon the floor In the parlor were held by a spell of religious fervor. I am going to leave these parts imme diately and sail lor roriugai. Mrs- Leatherman, who says she is a widow, -and that sho formerly lived In Clinton Falls, Ind., made the fol lowing statement: "I may be a hypnotist, but if so I practice only the hypnotism in which a religious faith is drilled. I have worked with Mother Baxter In London and other well-known missionaries. I met Brother de Rosa in California af ter being converted to the faith. "'We bolieve In the casting out or devils.- While doing this we may wave our hands and snap our fingers. These movements may have given rise to the report that we are hypnotists. We will not continue our work further In this locality." BALKS AT MIXING RACES MINISTER WILIj NOT MARRY AMERICAN TO CHIXAMAX.

Bristol, of Portland, after a short stay in San Francisco, during which he con ferred with Francis J. Heney, has gone south to Los Angeles, At the same time the United States District Attor ney for Southern California. Oscar Law lor, has gone north to Portland. As far as can be learned, Mr. Lawlor and Mr. Bristol did not meet here, though both conferred with Mr. Heney on 'their way through.- A short time before, Mr. Heney conferred with Sec retary Garfield, and it Is the under standing that Mr. Heney made known to Mr. Bristol and r.

TRIALS WITH ANIMALS. Dr. Flexner Uses Guinea Pigs, Rab bits and Horses to Get Serum. CHICAGO, Aug. 7. A dispatch to the Inter Ocean from New York says: Details were received yesterday of the eerebro spinal meningitis serum antiseptic discov ered by Dr. Flexner, of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research and used successfully in Cleveland in the treatment of the disease which killed many children In the epidemic In New York two years ago. Professor Flexner made a discovery by means of experiments on monkeys and guinea pigs. His first experiment on guinea pigs was made with goats' serum. A female goat had been Injected twice with cultures from several sources of the meningitis germs (dlplococcl) within a pe riod of two weeks. By using large Injec tions the doctor saved the pigs. When the goat which had been infected with men ingitis died the serum obtained from It was found to have both preventive and curative properties. The serum from mon keys protected guinea pigs from what otherwise would have been a fatal dis ease of the meningitis germs. On the whole, the Immune serum saved more guinea pigs than the normal serum. The serum of an Infected horse also ren dered the guinea pigs immune. Dr. Flex ner got an anti-serum from rabbits, which, if injected Immediately, had high protective properties against the disease. A considerable number of guinea pigs were killed by meningitis in the course of the experiments. METEOR SIZE OF FOOTBALL Seen In Mexico Throwing Off Show ers of Aerolites. EL PASO, Aug. 7.
