No. Si. were headed for Portland. The
train was traveling about 3i miles an
kour.
As the train overhauled the automo
bile Mra. Gillette turned off on a road
o a farmhouse where the autoiats
were to have dinner. The road to the
crossing Inclines steeply, and evidently
Mra Gillette was so busy shifting
Bears that she did not notice the train.
The automobile had nearly crossed
the track when the crash occurred. The
trsin struck the rear portion of the
automobile, knocking that section of
the machine 0 feet. The fre part of
the automobile rolled 40 feet on the
Opposite aide of the track.

advance railroad crossing signs were
in place, and there was no evidence of
negligence on the "part of the county
ommissloners or of the railroad in that
regard.

Mr. Rasch did not take the testimony
of the engine crew, and declined to fix
responsibility for the accident. He
pointed out, however, that the new

He said the crossing where the acci
dent happened afforded a view of the
train half a mile away.

taken to St. Vincent's hospital when

who works for the Columbia River

WAR ON MOSQUITO OPENED
Boy Scouts or Llnnton to Spread
Oil on Lake?.
'Death to the mosquito," Is the battle
cry of the Boy Scouts of Linnton. who
hflv lminrlipd an offensive against the
sharp-billed little buccaneers that breed
and go forth to foray irom ine siougns
and ponds in the vicinity of the Port
land suburb.
The Boy Scouts plan to smother the
larva with oil, after the method prac
ticed in Louisiana and elsewhre. When
the ubiquitous "wigglers" decide that
it is h(gh time they sprouted wings and
went buzzing about their bloody busi
ness, they find the surface of the water
covered with an Impenetrable film of
oil, and die in the first flush of their
vottthful ambition.
The plan haa the sanction of the city j
nealtn Diireau. which is iw supply ujb
scouts with sufficient oil to make
Llnnton's lakes the most unhealthful
resorts that ever a mother mosquito
picked for nurseries. But the applica
tion of the oil will be made by the
scouts themselves, and will be main
tained until the aeason for the pests is
past.
As the river recedes many ponds of
stagnant water are left. In these the
mosquitos multiply by myriads. It is
such haunts that the Boy Scouts will
make safe for democracy by the elimin
ation of the Infant pirates of tbe air.

Brest today on his return to the United
States. The U. S. S. George Washing
ton, carrying the presidential party,
'steamed from the harbor at 2:20 o'clock
this afternoon.

France caused little excitement in this
port. There was only a distance of 50
feet from where his special train stop
ped to where a motor launch was wait
ing to convey him to the George Wash
ington. There was little cheering or
applause from the several thousands
who had gathered at the .embarkation
pier. A procession of socialists, sing
ing the "International," debouched from
the Rue Siam as the president walked
across the pier. The president waved
his silk hat to the paraders.

Salaun and Admiral E. N. Benoit of the

president in turn.
Mrs. Wilson was presented with a
bouquet of Brittany roses by Mrs.
Josephine Lewis of Cincinnati, repre
senting the American Red Cross In
France. Mrs. Wilson wore a navy blue
tailored dress and a handsome but
simple little hat, apparently the latest
creation from the Rue de La Paix. She
smiled and thanked Mrs. Lewis and
then chatted briefly with her. Mrs.
Wilson appeared tired and apparently
was in a hurry to reach the launch.
Tenth Chasseurs Band Plays.
The band of the tenth chasseurs
played "The Star-Spangled Banner" and
the "Marseillaise" as the president de
scended the steps to the launch. As
the launch went into the stream a
company of marines and veterans of
the Yser presented arms, while cries
of "Vive Wilson!" "Vive Amerique!"
"Vive La Paix!" arose.

Local Unions Do Not Obey
San Francisco Orders.
REFERENDUM IS PROPOSED
Workers Are Opposed to Hasty
Action on Walkout.

Take Action on Request of
California. Strikers.
ELECTRIC.tL-TELEPHOSB
STRIKE SITUATION. t
Portland Electrical workers t
and telephone operators fail to
obey orders of International of
ficers to go on strike.
Seattle, Wash. Reduced tele
phone service maintained Sunday,
following; partial walkout of op
erators. Tacoma, Wash. Electrical
workers of Tacoma defer action
on strike order until Monday
night.
Spokane, Wash. No action
taken on order to strike. All
telephone operators working.
Though both electrical workers and
telephone operators of Portland Satur
day night received orders to go out on
sympathetic strike, there was no walk
out by either union yesterday.
The threatened strike of electrical
workers employed by the Pacific Tele
phone and Telegraph company here was
held In obeyance at least 24 hours. Ac
tion will be taken tonight upon orders
received Saturday night from I C.
Grasser, international vice-president of
San Francisco. Telephone operators
will meet tonight to act on orders re
ceived from Nellie Johnson, department
vice-president, also of San Francisco.
Meanwhile telephone service continues
uninterrupted.
Hasty Action Opponed.
Opposition to hasty action developed
at yesterday morning's special meeting
of electrical workers, and caused post
ponement of a decision until tonight.
C. W. Hurd, who represented the Port
land local at the conference in Cali
fornia recently, presided at the meet
ing, and is said to have led the move
ment against an immediate walkout.
and to have advocated a referendum,
which, opponents say, will require two
weeks.
One of the reasons advanced for de
laying action was that members of the
local now out of the city should bo
given an opportunity to come to Port
land and participate in the meeting.
Notices were sent to an of these mem
bers yesterday, and it Is predicted to
night's session will be attended by
practically all active members of the
organization.
Referendum Is Oppo.ed.
Opponents of the referendum sugges
tion point out that the order to strike
came, direct from L. C. Grasser, inter
national vice-president, and that a vote
cannot now be taken legally. It is
pointed out, also, that the vote regis
tered some months ago never lias been
invalidated, and still is in effect as a
basts upon which to act in case such
an expression might be necessary. This
was reported as almost unanimously In
favor of a strike. The telephone oper
ators voted In favor of a strike at' the
same time.
Phone Operators Act Tonight.
Mrs. Agnes Johnson, president of tne
telephone operators' local, who had
gone to Seaside, was expected home
late last night to take charge of the
situation. In her absence Vera Epling.
secretary of the organization, made ar
rangements for the mass meeting to" be
held on the third floor of the Selling
Hirsch building tonight.
"No new instructions have been re
ceived today," she announced yester
day, "and no action will be taken until
the mass meeting assembles Monday
night."
Strike Vote Rescinded.
That the strike vote taken several
months ago has been rescinded. In ef
fect, by the action of the telephone
company in opening negotiations with
the workers, was the assertion made
last night by President Hurd of the
electrical workers. The question voted
on at that time, he said, was for a
strike unless the government or the
telephone company consented to ne
gotiate. He insists that it will be
necessary for electrical workers to
vote prior to walking out, and ques
tions the right of the international
officers to issue a call such as was re
ceived here Saturday night.
"When I left San Francisco, from
which city I arrived this morning," said
Mr. Hurd. "I was assured by the inter
national officers that a referendum
would be in the malls by this morning.
When I arrived here I learned that the
strike order had been issued in direct
opposition to the agreement reached at
the conference."
Division In Rank. Admitted.
Mr. Hurd called attention to the fact
that the telephone company had made
concessions, among them being a wage
scale of 6 per day for electrical work
ers, the same as is paid in other sec
