Election Outcome Predicted.
The election resulted exactly as the
politicians of the order predicted, ex
cept in one instance, the winning of
Maxwell over Dlckerman for grand es
teemed lecturing knight. Geography
had a lot to do with that. Dlckerman
ia from Arixona. New Mexico, the
neighbor of Arizona, also had a candi
date in the person of John Lee Clarke
for grand inner guard. It was con
ceded from the start that both South
western men could not win. Clarke
developed a strong following from the
start and his friends gave their sup
port to Maxwell and exchanged for
votes from Maxwell's friends.
Dlckerman was the candidate of the
so-called "organization" of the grand
lodge and until a week ago he was
considered an easy winner. The pecu
liar geographical situation. It Is
thought, had much to do with his as
well as Leveroni's defeat.

Throng of 6000 at Country Club See
Daring Racer Thrown Through
Space to Rocky Berth, Slur
ring First Day of Meet.
A small stone, tossed with criminal
carelessness upon the ' Country Club
track, or dislodged from an abutting
hillock by the foot of a spectator, re
sulted In the marring of the Portland
Automobile Club's race meet yesterday
afternoon with an accident which may
bring death to Chris Dundee, a Portland
automobile driver.
Rounding the east turn of the mile
dirt track at the daring clip of nearly
a mile a minute, determined to take
second place in the first lap of the five
mile free-for-all race, Dundee's nerve
and the power of his racing car,
"Whistling Billy," fell victim to the
stone, the car careened sharply, failed
to right Itself, and then crashed
through the board fence, casting its
driver 25 feet into the air and upon a
mass of grass-hidden rock at the foot
of a 40-foot grade.
Body Badly Mangled.
A fracture of the skull over the right
eye, a badly Injured left leg. broken
nose, broken middle finger on left
hand and contusions of the face, with
an automobile shattered beyond repair.
were the results of the hazardous ef
fort of the Portland man successfully
to pit his skill against that of the
best racing drivers In the world.
Dr. S. C. Slocuroy who, with Dr. Wil
liam KUlingworth, was the first physi
cian at the side of the injured man,
reported last night that his patient has
an even chance tor lire. ine skuii
wound was operated upon last night.
and unless complications set In Dundee
will recover.
The accident came as the climax to
a splendid afternoon ot racing wit
nessed by a holiday crowd of over 6000
people. When six cars lined up across
the narrow track for the start of the
free-for-all. and "Whistling Billy," the
White Steamer piloted by Dundee- as
signed to the outside position, the
throng waxed enthusiastic over the
prospects of a thrilling contest in tho
banner event of the afternoon.
Cheers Change to Horror.
Falling to equal the marks of tha
other contestants In the previous
events, Dundee waited for the pistol
with a determination to pilot his car
in the van of the speed kings. Hugging
the outer rail with no efTort to cut In
for a better position, "Whistling Billy"
was In third place at the half-mile post.
A shout of encouragement went up
when the white ghost crept up on tne
Cinco, and this cnangea to one oi
amazement when Dundee s car was seen
to forge ahead of the moat sensaiional
racer of the day.
But the shout of Joyful encourage
ment gave way to one of terrified fore
boding when the car was seen to leave
the track, and sections of rail hurtling
nto the air 60 feet In its wake.
At the point where the car left tho
track, the course is embanked 40 feet
above a ravine. The machine hurtled
from tlio track, turned over several
times, and alighted upside down at the
bottom.
Driver Koond Unconscious.
When the nearest spectators reached
the spot they looked In vain for the
hodv of the driver In the wreckage.
discovering Dundee unconscious where
he had been tossed to the ground a few
feet from his car.
A crowd of more than 1000 spectators
quickly gathered around the body, it re
quiring the efforts of halt a aozen
police, assisted by a squad of 20 civil
ians, to keep them away from the body.
Drs. Slocum and Kll'ingsworth were
quickly on the scene, and found Dundee
covered with blood from numerous
cuts. As ho regained consciousness lie
cried for someone to "clean the- dirt out
of my eyes."
The automobile of A. J. Roy was
placed at the disposal of the surgeons
and willing hands assisted In pulling
the machine up the steep grade, from
where It carrier Dundee several blocks.
Dr. Slocum made an examination of his
patient and pronounced the Injuries is
superficial, and within 30 minutes an
ambulance was at hand to hurry him
to the Good Samaritan Hospital.
