NO ANXIETY IS MANIFESTED
Snipers Busy From Early
Morning Till Night,
TRAMWAY SERVICE HALTS
Many Workers Unable to Reach
Places of Employment Fac
tories Compelled to Close.
BELFAST. Aug". 31. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Although the truce
between the discordant factions is
being observed throughout the re
mainder of Ireland, Belfast again to
day experienced another period of
terror from gunmen and snipers. As
a result the death list was augmented
by six, while 30 persons were injured,
many seriously.
Today's casualties bring the total
death roil for the three days' rioting
to IS. There probably have been 100
persons more or less seriously in
jured, of whom numbers were non
combatants. With some quiet ln
i tervals, resulting from the police
putting snipers to flight, shooting
persisted in some sections of the city
from early morning until late this
evening. Sometimes it became so
dangerous as to necessitate suspen
sion of the tramway service.
Factories Are Cloned.
Many workers could not reach their
places of employment and returned
home, while'shopkeepers did not dare
to open their stores. In some dis
turbed districts factories were com
pelled to close.
Early today Sir William Coates, the
lord mayor, made strong representa
tions to General Carter Campbell,
commanding the British troops in
Ulster, and Chief of Folice Gatson
concerning the need for protection
of citizens.
The staffs in the hospitals have
been strained to the utmost caring
for those wounded in last night's
rioting. - , . .. .
The rioting and outlawry yesterday
culminated at 9 P. M. in the appear
ance of a party of men armed with
rifles, whd entered Stanhope street,
took positions on the ground and
opened a hot fire. Pedestrians stam
peded from the fusllade. Many who
r.ere near enough to see the men
doing the shooting declared the rifles
they carried were new. It was the
most audacious Incident of the fight
ing since it broke out Monday.
Extensive Area Affected.
The exchange of shots between the
contending parties began early in the
morning and gradually spread over
an extensive area with increasing in
tensity. Outside of detachments In armored
cars, the military forces of the gov
ernment have not interferred in the
rioting. Victoria barracks, where the
troops are housed, was within the
zone of yesterday's disorders and the
walls of the buildings were hit fre
quently by; bullets. '
Tram cars raced through the riot
district of Queen street and Old
Lodge road with passengers lying
flat to escape the bullets. An Eng
lishman on his honeymoon was se
verely wounded.
Snipers began last night's chief
445 to 1000 feet below the mouth of
the mine.
The men were entombed when a dy
namite charge in a new coal bed pene
trated on aid walled room, loosing
black damp, which was believed to
have caused their death.
A special train bearing a United
States mine bureau car was dispatched
to the mine within an hour after the
accident.
Seven men who escaped the explo
sion but were suffering from the ef
fect of black damp, were taken to
local hospitals. It was believed they
will recover. The mine wili be sealed
tomorrow by state authorities, who
will issue a permit after an investi
gation authorizing continuance of op
erations.
Volunteer rescue teams were or
ganized by miners, but their efforts
were futile, as the black damp drove
them back.
Check of the miners tonight showed
that 430 had entered the shaft this
morning, and that all but those aeaa
had been returned to the surface.
Warnings after the explosion, by
miners in a nearby shaft, probably
saved their lives.
Value of All Structures Legalized

PLEA TO BE MADE TODAY
Indictment Result of Testimony of
Xearly 50 Witnesses Grand
Jury's Deliberation Brief.
EOSEBURG, Or., Aug. 31. (Special.)
Dr. Richard M. Brumfield, indicted
by the Douglas county grand Jury
here at noon today on the charge of
first-degree murder In connection
with the slaying of Dennis Russell,
appeared in the circuit court here at
2 o'clock this afternoon for arraign
ment. Brumfield will enter his for
mal plea bef .-e Judge Hamilton to
morrow afternoon.
The scene attending the arraign
ment was all that could have been
expected. Busy clerks in the county
offices deserted their desks tempora
rily, business and professional men
forsook their routine duties, and
when the prisoner was brought up the
long, winding stairway to a position
before the bar the room was filled
with a crowd of people eager to get
a glimpse of the alleged murderer.
Walking between Sheriff Starmer
and Deputy Sheriff Hopkins, the pris
oner emerged from his cell in the
county jail with a step that attested
marked improvement in his physical
condition. As his eyes met a perfect

the list of those whose extradition
was demanded by the allies "only did

that extradition was an ignomy to

submit."
MORE ZR-2 JSOTJ'IES FOUND
Chief Machinist's Mate Is Identi

HULL, Aug. 31. The body of George
Welsh, chief machinist's mate, of El
gin, 111., who lost his life .in the ZR-2
disaster here last week, was recovered
from the wreckage today.
Two more bodies later' were found.
One was that of Flight Sergeant Wil
son of the royal aviation force, which
was discovered in the Humber near
Brough. The other, which has not
been identified, was washed up in the
Holderness district.
Three more bodies were recovered
from the wreckage late today, making
a total of 22 recovered. . One of the
three was identified as that of V. H.
Wicks, flying officer. The body which
was washed ashore today was later
identified as that of Sergeant J. W.
Mason of the royal air force. -
district, then turned
guard and said smilingly:
"This air feels mighty good, boys."
Little Concern Manifested.
The doctor was attired in a natty
suit of gray material and light fedora
hat, waa clean shaven and his dark
face stood out prominently in con
trast, to his Immaculate linen. Ap
parently Dr. Brumfield was the least
interested person in the entire group
and he gave no outward evidence that
he entertained a spark of worry over
the pending trial which, may send him
to the gallows.
Only slight confusion followed the
entry of the prisoner into the court
room. Judge Hamilton was sum
moned from his chambers, and beck
oned the prisoner to rise.
With a slight nervous twitch of the
shoulders Dr. Brumfield arose from
his seat and stood almost motionless
as if gazing into space. , George
Neuner, district attorney, then read
the indictment. At the conclusion the
A big building campaign in all sec
tions of the city, the outstanding fac
tor of which was residence construc
tion, combined with an encouraging
Improvement in lumbering and other
manufacturing and 'mercantile busl
ness featured conditions in Portland
during the past month. Reports from
various industries showed an opti
mistic trend.
The report of the city building de
partment showed that building per
mits Issued during the month totaled
1517 valued at (1,398,602, compared
with but 1039 permits valued at
"1,022,115 for the same month last
year. This was an increase of ap
proximately 36 per cent. .
Building permits for the month just
closed included a total of 239 resi
dences for an aggregate of "864,075,
as compared with a total of 119 resi
dence permits valued at 3318,285 for
the same month of last year. This
was a gain of 100 per cent In number
and of more than 170 per cent In
value.
The figures for the past month also
show a corresponding decrease over
those for the month of July of this
year In respect to building permits
issued. During . July total permits
amounted to 1119 for an aggregate of
31.446,324. Of this number 219 were
for residences of an aggregate value
of $761,010.
The report of the building inspec
tor's office yesterday showed that
for the eight-month period ending
yesterday, a total of 9280 permits had
been Issued for an aggregate value of
"11.176,821. Of Uiese 1965 were for
residences valued at $6,810,845. Resi
dences built outside of the city limits
where no permits are required, would
raise this figure on residences far
above that amount. It was declared.
For the month just closed the bank
clearings amounted to $130,150,773.93.
This is $20,247,401 less than the fig'
ures for the corresponding month last
year. The decline, it was declared,
is not so great as that represented by
figures from other large banking
centers of the country.
The bank clearings for July of this
year were $108,812,524. The increase
for the past month was partly ac
counted for by the fact that there
were two more business days in this
month than in July.
Bank clearings for Portland for the
first eight months of this year
amounted to $1,639,631,292 compared
with Seattle's $1,612,144,702.

body of a girl between 3 and 4 years
old, found buried in a gravel pit 20

toys and articles of clothing, was
found In the dry goods box which
