IL C Inman, foreman of an elec trical crew for the Portland Railway. Light Power Company, received a shock of 11.000 volta of electricity yes terday morning while making a con nection between a cable and a reduc tion box In Station "LL." at the foot of East Lincoln street. He waa taken to St. Vlncenfa Hospital, where his In juries were found to be of a minor nature. Inman stood on a scaffold, seven and one-half feet from the floor. In the course of bis work he turned, catching hold of an Iron pipe, when the back of his head came in contact with the live wire. The circuit made by the back of his bead and the pipe that he grasped In his hand prevented the electricity from entering- the lower part of hla body, which most likely prevented more serious Injuries. He was burled te the floor when he re ceived the shock. Except for a num ber of burns about the body and a wound on the back -of his head, where hla head struck tha floor, he la not thought to be Injured. PERSONAL MENTION. V. 8. Foy. of Butte.

CHAMBERLAIN STAR FADES Considerable Uncertainty as to Dem ocratic StandardbeareV la State Viewed by Valley Politicians. Gearln and Miller Receptive. A-LBAN'T, Or.. Dec. 17. (Special) Mora discussion Is being heard In this part of tha state now regarding the prospective Democratic candidate for United States Senator in 11$ than before any preceding election. Fore seeing the possibility ' of a split be tween Bourne and anti-Bourne Repub licans which may carry over the primaries into the general election. Democrats assert that they have high hopes of electing the next United States Senator so are discussing the question of a candidate. In the last Senatorial election Demo crats realized their hopes of electing a Senator but at that time there was no uncertainty about the fact that their candidate would be George fc.. Chamberlain. This year there seems to be considerable uncertainty aa to the standard-bearer. During the past few weeks In, the discussions In this part of the state only two men have been mentioned prominently as prospective candidates. These are Milton A. Miller, of Leba non, State Senator from Linn County, and John M. Gearln. of Portland, who served an appointive term in the United States Senate to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Mitchell. McMlaavlile Man Appear. In the past week a new man has been brought Into this discussion. This new tar on the Democratic Senatorial hori zon Is William Galloway, of McMinn ville. one of the Circuit Judges of the Third Judicial district. What Judge Galloway thinks about the matter is not known but those who have been bringing his name for ward have urged him as a strong can didate because he la a well-known pioneer resident of Oregon, bas a wide acquaintance over the state and has had considerable experience in the official life of Oregon. As to Judge Galloway's running qualities, has friends cite the fact that he has been elected twice to the Cir cuit bench In the Third Judicial dis trict, which la heavily Republican, being formed of Marlon. Linn. Polk. Yamhill and Tillamook counties. In 1304 he led Judge Boise, one of the best-known pioneer jurists of the state, for this position by 1300 rotes and won out last year by 2000 ma jority. . The friends of Senator Miller be lieve he should be promoted from the State Senate to the United States Senate and are urging that he would make a good candidate, citing that ha has been successful In every political race he has ever made, and has shown his ability to accomplish things by his servlre In the state's law-making body. Miller's work for the schools of the stste and his service as Democratic National Committeeman for Oregon are being urged In his favor. Geaiia, Toe, Haa Frleada. John M. Gearln also haa some strong friends In this part of the state. J. K. Weatherford and W. R. Bllyeu. of Albany, both of whom have served several terms In the State Legislature from Linn County and have been other wise prominent in Democratic councils In the state, have been mentioned also In connection with the Senatorial dis cussions and the names of Harry Lane, ex-Mayor of Portland, and A. 8. Ben nett, of The Dalles, an ex-Clrcult Judge in Eastern Oregon, have also been men tloned freauently. There appears to have been hut little discussion in this part of the state thus far as to possible Republican Senatorial candidates. When friends of Judge Lawrence T. Harris, of Eugene, broached his name recently it elicited considerable ravoranie aiscus slon but after his refusal to run. little talk on the Senatorial question has been heard. Of course. It Is known, that Senator Bourne will run lor re-election ana that Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendleton. Is a candidate, but little dlsousslon has been heard here either for or sgalnst either one of them. When Bourne waa elected In 190$ Linn County returnd majorities against him both In th primaries and general election. North Bank Sues Five for $3600. An echo of the purchase by the Spo kane.
