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.

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

PENDLETON, Or., Oct. 9. (Special.)
That the local woolea mills will not be
sold' to the Gordon Falls Textile Com
pany and moved to Western Oregon now
seems aeeured. 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.

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.
