Standard Oil Steamship Asun cion Strikes Steam Schoon er Norwood During Fog. ... : i mix nn i i- i jb;-j BOTH SHIPS ARE DAMAGED Norwood Bfromn Waterlogged Within CO Minutes Asuncion Hu Bows Stove In Passen ger Cared for by Latter.. SAN FRAXOSCO. Oct. 9. The iteamer Norwood. belonging; to Sudden & Chris tiansen, of this city, bound from Grays harbor to San Pedro, was towed here today In a water-loKjred condition by the Btudard (Ml Company's steamer Asun cion, which left this port two days ago with a carao of oil for Portland. Or. Captain Martin, of the Norwood, reports that durlr a dense fog at 3 o'clock yes terday morning. wh-n about four miles west of Point Gorda. on the coast of Humboldt County. the Norwood was struck by the steamer Asuncion on the port sld-. amidships and cut below the water line. The Norwood began to fill rapidly and became waterlogged In about 20 minutes. Her four boats were Immedi ately lowered, and two women, two children. 1J male passengers and part of the crew put aboard them. Captain Martin, the first mate and the rest of the crew remained aboard the Nor wood. The chief officer was on watch at the time of the collision, and asserts that it could not have been averted. The bow plates of tile Asuncion were badly stove in and the steamer began to kak. To prevent her from filling with water. Captain Brlilgett ordered the oil pumped from the forward tanks of the Asuncion and a large quantity of the cargo was emptied Into the sea. The boats of the Norwood were picked up by the Asuncion and the passengers and crew of the disabled vessel, which was at once taken In tow, were well cared for during the trip to this city. Both Captain Brldgett and his chief officer were on the bridge of the Asuncion at tlie time of the accident. On arriving here the Norwood was towed to the mud flats off Mission Bay and beached. pending an examination Into the extent of her Injuries. The Asun cion proceeded to Point Richmond, where the remainder of her cargo of oil will be pumped into the tanks of the Standard H1 Company. The bow of the Asuncion sustained considerable damage, but other wla the steamer was not badly Injured. The passengers who went through the thrilling experience of a collision at lea were landed In this city this afternoon by the tug Fearless, which went outside the heads to meet the dis abled vessels. They are: G. Buyer. H. Under. K. Harvey. J. Ford. W. Sparks. C. L. Gallagher. Mr. and Mrs. Pwanson and their -year-old boy. Mrs. A. Moore and boy.. All praise the conduct of the captain of the Norwood, who. they say. averted a panic and prevented any loss of life. Immediately after the steamers struck, the staterooms of the Norwood tilled with water and the vessel listed heavily to starboard. It appeared as though she would sink In a few mo ments. Peter Logan, of this city, a member of the crew, fell off the Jacob's ladder In climbing down to one of the boats and was crushed between the dory and the hull of the steamer. His shoulder was dlslocnted and he would have drowned had he not been at once pulled Into the boat. The Norwood, although filled with water, was kept afloat by her load of lumber.

She arrived In Portland the morning of September 14 and the work on her has been completed In less than the SO days required. Hlvetdrlvers at tempted to make trouble on one occa sion, but the contractors were equal to them and promptly discharged the trouble-makers. Only a part of one day was lost by the attempted strike.

DOOMED FOR SLAUGHTER THEATERS WILL NOT PAY FOR FIREMEN LX THEM. Ordinance Providing for Their In stallation Not to Be Passed by City Council. Councilman Kellahers proposed ordi nance to install city firemen in the thea ters at the expense of the theater man agements Is headed for the slaughter pen, as yesterday morning the committee on health and police put the proper brand upon it to insure Its being "killed." 'That it do not pass," is the recommen dation. . and at the Council meeting next Wednesday it Is virtually certain the measure . will . receive a fatal blow. It never did receive much consideration, and never stood any chance for passage. It was an unwelcome bill from the start in Councllmanic circles, and was marked for death from the outset. The ordinanca was inspired by a resolu tion Introduced before the City Executive Board months ago by Marcus G. Fleisch ner, until recently chairman of the fire committee of the Board. He had investi gated conditions, and deemed that It was wise to authorize Chief Campbell of the Fire Department to station firemen in the various theaters as a means of protection to the public, lie did not Intend to stir up any trouble or to cause the theatrical managers any trouble, but Thomas G. Greene, also a member of the Executive Board, seized upon the resolution as a means to force theatrical managers to pay for firemen. and amended Mr. Fleischner'a resolution in that respect. The amendment carried, and a communi cation was sent from th Board to the Council, telling the Councilmen of the action. Councilman Kellaher, one of the minor ity leaders of the Council, at once pre pared an ordinance, authorizing the plac ing of city firemen in theaters, at the ex pense of the managers. Councilman Baker, proprietor of three local " play houses, opposed the ordinance, saying that it was unfair; that, if the city wished to place firemen in the theaters, it is at liberty to do so. but that It should pay for their services out of its own funds. He declared that the ordinance should not pass. It was referred, to the committee on health and police, where It has since been slumbering, unconsidered, until yes terday morning, when it was taken up and started on its way to the Council manic butchershop. PENDLETON UP IN ARMS Citizens ltcfuse to Let Woolen Mills Go to Gordon Falls. PENDLETON, Or., Oct. 9. (Special.)

The prospects of this re moval from the city has startled the citi zens and this afternoon an enthusiastic meeting was held and a committee of six appointed to see if some steps could not be taken to retain the plant. It is proposed to either lease the mills or to organize a stock company and pur chase them. Two Killed In Vre-k. SPOKANE. Wash., Oct. 9.

Manufacturing Chemists, Lowell, Mass. HOT SHOT FOR ENEMIES Tells Crowds In Illinois and Mis souri That Republicans Are Re sponsible for Hard Times. Gets Ovation at Hannibal. HANNIBAL. Mo.. Oct. 9. Closing up in this city tonight the biggest day of his campaign, William J. Bryan. Democratic candidate for President, was the center of the greatest Democratic demonstra tion in the history of this city. A mighty crowd greeted the Bryan special as it pulled into the station and police were compelled to resort to force to make way to the automobile which was in readiness to carry the candidate to City Park, where the meeting was In progress. Escorted by mounted men bearing torches with lady out-riders outflanking his automobile, the candidate passed through a lane of red fire, the entire length of the parade route to City Park. The great crowd fell in line behind the paraders and cheered with great fervor. Mr. Bryan's speech was along the line of his various addresses throughout the day. He retired to the car immediately upon the conclusion of his remarks. Under the direction of the Missouri Democratic committee, Mr. Bryan will make his first tour of the campaign in Missouri tomorrow, proceeding across the state to St. Joseph, making set speeches at Paris, Moberly and Kansas City. Fresh from his conference in Chicago with hundreds of business men, whom he also especially addressed. W. J. Bryan today; traveling for 12 hours through the State of Illinois and mak ing numerous stops, held himself up as the "advance agent of prosperity." The panic of last Fall was his principal theme, and from early morning until his last word was uttered tonight he hammered away at the Republican charge that his election meant business depression and failures. He assailed Mr. Taft for running on a platform which he did not indorse, pitched Into Speaker Cannon and Mr. Sherman, the Republican Vice-Presidential nominee, as being responsible for stilling- legislation in behalf of la bor, and finally bitterly attacked the President again for taking a hand in the campaign. For the first time Mr. Bryan referred to Mr. Longworth'p alleged statement at Mollne. 111., that Mr. Taft should be elected and hold oiflce for eight years and then be succeeded by Roosevelt. "Roosevelt shall not be' permitted to nominate and elect his successor." he declared, "with the prospect as an nounced by his oon-in-law of being elected for eight years more. It is time the power of the people shall be used by the people." Great crowds of people greeted Mr. Bryan all along the line of travel and cheered him. At points he was caught In the swirling multitifde nnd had to struggle to extricate himself. With the speech delivered here tonight, he had spoken 15 times. BATTERS DOWN ARGUMENTS Bryan Pours Hot Shot Into Repub lican Standpatters. STREATOR, 111., Oct. 9. Declaring himself to be the "advance agent of prosperity." William J. Bryan today, in his speeches in this state, on his way to Hannibal, Mo., is seeking to batter down the arguments of his opponents that business depression and panics will follow his election. He again held up Speaker Cannon and J. S. Sherman as tariff stana-patiers. "If the Republicans win," he said, "Mr. Cannon will preside over the House and Mr. Sherman over the Senate and there will be. no reduction that will satisfy any public demand. And then, what? A betrayed and disappointed people will begin a four years' agita tion to take the hand of the tariff bene ficiary from the throat of the American people. And. my friends, during the four years business uncertainty will continue." He maintained that the Republicans "have no promise or prospect or plan that means a restoration of confidence or peace and prosperity." Whereas, the Democratic party was pledged to tariff reductions and with reductions "busi ness can build up on a natural founda tion and prosperity can come back to the American people.
