may be found ln the manner ln
which Fourth of July accidents are
"covered" by the newspapers of New
York. While at first glance, the task may
not seem particularly difficult, It must
be remembered that there are some 3,
000.000 people to be watched, any one
of whom may be injured at any moment
by the ubiquitous firecracker of the small
boy. 'This task of watching for accidents
Is given over each year to what is known
as the New York City News Association.
This was formerly a local branch of the
Associated Press, but it is now a miniature
A?f?C!a.ted. Press in ,tself- anl deals solely
with the boroughs of Manhattan and the
Bronx, the two largest boroughs, ln point
of population, of the greater city.
In these two boroughs there are about
40 police precincts and a dozen public
hospitals. The day before the Fourth, the
News Association hires enough "tramp
newspaper men," with which the metro
polls ls always filled, so that ln addition
to Its own force, it will have reporters
enough to cover each precinct and public
hospital in the two boroughs. About 80
men are hired, as two shifts are run, one
during the day, and one during the night
These reporters are Instructed not to
leave the precinct to which they are
assigned, and to make their headquarters
at the stationhouse of that precinct.
Everything that happens in New York
is reported to the police. The patrolman
on the street who sees an accident or a
fire, telephones at once to his precinct
commander, and the details are entered
on the stationhouse blotter, and then
forwarded to Police Headquarters The
reporters, therefore, hear of all accidents
at the stationhouse. and only ln .case of
fire, do they leave their posts to get
further details. If a large accident ls re
ported, the News Association hears of it
from Police Headquarters, where two men
are constantly on duty, and if the acci
dent is of sufficient seriousness, a spe-

so said J. C. Stubbs, traffic director of
the Harriman lines, who is passing a
few days in Portland, in an address one
day last week before the transportation
committee er the Portola Festival com
mittee at a dinner at the St. Francis ln
San Francisco. With the arrival here of
the San Francisco papers ln wlilch the
toregoing statement was published, a
question arose as to the motive of the
Harriman representative in so expressing
iiimswi.
The people of this state have evldeyitlv
been disposed to blame (Mr. Stubbs large
ly for the indifference of Harriman
towards Oregon. With the recent activi
ties ln construction work and nthi-
evidences of friendship towards Oregon
on the part of the Union Pncifl.
magnate, those who have in the ract
been inclined to criticise Harriman seem
io nave concluded that a flew era had
dawned and that further occasions for
complaining would not be offered. For
tnat reason Mr. Stubbs' left-handed com
pliment came as a surprise and a first
reading of the published interview rather
stirred up the ire of Oreeonlans. Whr,
shown the excerpt from his San Fran
cisco speecn Mr. stubbs said:
It Is tirun that T .IJ t . . i i .
I am quoted as saying:, but It should not be
,d o, you urgsn people that any
malice itaj intended In what I aald. Mv
pnly pift-pose in making the statement both
ln Portland and ln San Francisco was to Im
press the people of the two cities with the
need of eliminating: the kicker and pulling;
together. Satisfactory results can be ob
tained only by advertising your advantages,
if you have griefs and complaints, try and
forget them, but at any rate, do not ex
ploit them. Only the natural attractive
"w8 of anv city can be advertised profit
ably. Forget your shortcomings, tf you
nave any. and boost your attractions and
advantages. That was the idea I intended
to convey in the remark: I made, bu- It
seems I have been wrongly Interp-eted
I "hall never forget my first visit to
Portland a few years ago. Shortly after I
became associated with Mr. Harriman I
visited the Paciflc Coast to become better
acquainted with this section of the coun
try, and Its tossibllltles, knowledge of which
I confess, at that time. I did not possess.
I was practically unknown In Portland, and
that I might become acquainted with the
prominent business men of Portland a
dinner was arranged. Short addresses were
made by leading merchants of your city
c,al man is sent out to cover It from
' ' or irom the
where a regular memher nf th
located. "
The reporters assigned to watch for ac
cidents have instructions to send in only
the briefest bulletins to the office on each
accident. There the reports are tabulated
and sent out. after having been mimeo
graphed, to the papers taking the news
association service, pneumatic tubes con
necting the office with the offices of the
great dailies. The reporter in the pre
cinct therefore telephones ln bulletins
every 15 minutes or so. One of these
bulletins might sound something like this
as it Is received by the New York City
News Association man:
"Awning fire at 234 West Thirtieth
street, store of Andrew Bartholomew
firecrackers, damage J50.
"Pasquale Devino, 2 years old, lives at
65 West Twenty-seventh street, finger
blown off by cannon cracker, sent to
Bellevue Hospital.
"Karl Schultsberg, of 23 Clinton street.
Brooklyn, hit ln face by tin can blown up
by crackers at Eighth avenue and West
Thirtieth street, badly cut about eyes
treated by ambulance surgeon, New York
Hospital and dent home.
"Lizzie Murphy, badly burned when
clothes caught fire from match; lives on
Vest Twenty-seventh street, say play
mates; taken to New York Hospital un
conscious; may die."
And so the report flows in constantly,
three men in the news association doing
nothing but take the reports from the
telephones and transcribing them on the
typewriter. In this way the immense cas
ualty list of the city is tabulated as far
as the Boroughs of the Bronx and Man
hattan go.
Jn the Boroughs of Brooklyn. Queens
and Richmond the same system is fol
lowed, only there It ls handled directly I
by the Associated Press. Papers not tak- '

Sun. or go without, save what they can

Nine accidents, due to firecrackers and
other Fourth of July explosives, were
reported yesterday from the drugstores
of the city. Four of the mishaps were
the result of premature explosions of

by the explosion of a torpedo, resulted in
immediate blood poisoning. Owing to the

many peopie remained at home, accidents
were not as numerous as they probably
will be today, when the Fourth will be
