AUTO GAUSESSUIT
Mary Sanbum Demands-StO,-000
Damages.
C. J. COOK IS DEFENDANT
She Declares Thst His Automobile
Made Her Horse Run Away-In the
Accident She Says She Was
Permanently Injured,
Mary Sanborn alleges that C. J. Cook
and his automobile caused a horse which
she was driving to run away, resulting: In
her sustaining very severe Injuries, and
she has sued Cook to recover $10,000 dam
ages. The complaint was filed In the
Stats Circuit Court yesterday afternoon.
The plaintiff alleges that on October 17,
(1903, she was driving along Columbia
slough road in a light spring wagon,
when Cook came along in his automobile
running at a high, dangerous rate of
speed. The noise of the machine
frightened her horse, causing the nriimnt
to become unmanageable, and to- run
away. Mrs. Banburn says she called to
Cook to stop his automobile, but be paid
no attention to her signal of distress and
did not even check its speed, but kept
right on after her rig. The horse she
was driving kept on at full speed, and
finally collided with a telephone pole.
Mrs. Sanborn asserts that she was thrown
from the wagon violently to the ground
and sustained severe Injuries to her head,
back, spine, arms and ankle. She com
plains that her sight has become im
paired and fttat she still suffers much
pain, and is permanently injured. Cook
Is a well-known Portland contractor.
HAWKERS MUST MOVE ON.
Judge Frazer Decides Municipal Or
dinance Is Constitutional.
Hawkers and fruit venders must keep
on the move. Judge Frazer yesterday
decided that the ordinance providing that
peddlers shall not stand in one place for
more than five minutes and move at
least one block within ten minutes Is a
reasonable police regulation.
The court held that the City Council
has full power to pass any ordinance it
deems proper to limit the use of streets
by venders.
Judge Frazer stated that as It was
possible for the Council to prohibit en
tirely the use of streets for such pur
poses, It certainly could limit their use
by placing time restrlqtlons.
The decision was rendered in the caso
of the City of Portland against M.
Schwartz, and was argued several months
ago. Schwartz was arrested and fined
in the Municipal Court for violation of
the ordinance, and he carried (he case
to the higher court in order to test the
constitutionality of the law, and may
appeal to the Supreme Court for a final
decision. The wagon peddlers are all in
terested in defeating the law.
KICK8 AND BEATS HIS WIFE.
Charge Is Made Against John B.
Campbell in Divorce Suit.
Because her husband, John B. Camp
boll, kicks and ill-treats her, Alice Camp
bell wants a divorce from him, and yes"
terday filed a suit against him for that
purpose in the State Circuit Court. On
February 10, 1904, Mrs. Campbell says
John became wild with rage and she was
obliged to flee from him for safety. On
two other occasions, she states, no struck
her in the face, kicked her, threatened
to kill her, and tola her he was tired of
her. The litigants were married in 1596
and have no children. Mrs. Campbell
asks to be allowed to resume her maiden
name. Hicks, and asks for J3S0 alimony.
Campbell knew the proceeding was to
be brought and came to the Sheriff's
office, where he was served with the
papers in the case.
TO CHECK SPEED OF AUTOS.
County Commissioners Will Be Asked
to Take Action.
Now that the White House road Is to
be sprinkled, and the work of widening
It from 60 to SO feet completed, measures
are to be taken to have the speed of au
tomobiles restricted on the road. Persons
who drive teams complain the automo
biles are run recklessly and at a high
rate of speed and aro dangerous to horses
and those handling them. The Board of
County Commissioners will probably be
asked to adopt means to regulate the
speed of theso machines on county roads.
The county won the suit brought by
Rosa Rohso to prevent the opening of
the road through her property, and It is
now believed that there will not be any
more opposition to it

Chinese Government is recruiting officers
for what Is known as the Chinese Im
perial reform army In the United States,
developed here today on receipts by W.

PHILADELPHIA, May 14. Kid McCoy

the most scientific six-round bouts ever
seen In this city at the Second Regiment

Kid in trouble at the close of the fifth
round, and also In the sixth round. Mc

was bleeding. O'Brien's blows lacked
force, and this fact alone probably saved
McCoy from being knocked out. O'Brien

COLUMBIA LOSES IN FIRST GAME
Victoria's Pitcher Was Too Much for
Portland Team.
VICTORIA, B. C, May 14. (Special.)
Although Columbia University lost to
Victoria at baseball this afternoon It was
a. gallant fight, the visitors going down
before superior metal. Emerson's pitch
ing for Victoria was Irresistible and he
accounted for 17 out of 27 batters. Mu
Manus. Imported specially from Seattle
to play for Victoria, proved himself a
star as a catcher, baserunner and field
er. Bernard Schwengers, the 200-pound
fan, made the only home run with a
magnificent drlvo. Coach Tredway did
the same drive, but was too fat to get
farther than third on his chest. Jack
Rithet. at third, played grand ball.
For the Columbia? the fourth and
eighth innings were the only ones ip
which they had more than three men to
bat, their one run being scored In the
fourth. Emerson's pitching was too
much for the boys, while the fielding was
close and fast. The captain of the Co
lumbia team said the Victorias were the
fastest team they had met thl3 season.
His boys played good ball but the com
pany was too rapid for their gait.

with considerable Interest. In the
meantime Sullivan will not be idle. If
a satisfactory match can be made. Sul
livan will take on Kid Patton, of East
Portland. Sullivan has defeated Pat
ton at one of Tracey's shows, but the

KAISER HAS H0BR0E OP WAR
Address to Prussian Abounds in Hope
Peace Will Ever Prevail.
ST. JOHANNA. SAARBRUCKEN,
Prussia, May 14. Emperor William, re
plying to the Burgomaster's address of
welcome upon the arrival of His Majesty
there today, recalled the year 1S70, when
Emperor William I passed through Saar
brucken on his way to the battlefield of
Spichern. The Emperor said:
"To his efforts, and to the grace of God,
Is due the fact that Saarbrucken is no
longer a frontier city. This territory 13
no longer open to devastation and attacks
by an enemy, for I, his successor as the
German Emperor, come from the frontier
fortress of Metz. which is a strongly for
tified bulwark of thl3 land, which. God
willing, will never again be devastated
by war, for, so long as every German
does his duty to his fatherland, so long
rrni nnr niv show Itself to the world
without, as It muet. In order that we may
live in peace.
"I pray God to lead me In my endeavors
tn nresprve the neace of my land. As
we have a clear conscience and look for
mnrrola nnrohflrfl. God will stand bv U3
should hostile forces attack our peaceful;
ness.
In conclusion Emperor William ex
pressed the conviction that the citizens
of Saarbrucken would always strike for
their altars, their Empire, their Emperor
and the Fatherland."

ment has reason to believe that the port

DISAPPROVE TURKS' METHODS
Signatories to Berlin Convention
Deem Her Too Severe.
PARIS, May 14. The Foreign Office Is
without additional details regarding the
widespread devastation wrought by
Turkish troops in the Sassoun district of
Armenia. The French pres3 advices
giving the number of killed as 100 on
each side are considered to be far short
of showing the magnitude of the affair.
The burned villages occupied the most
inaccessible portion of the empire, and
officials here say it probably will be im
possible to secure details before a month
has passed.
The scene of the affair is In a valley
surrounded by mountains. The natives
have been constantly agitating a revolt
against Turkey. The Sultan therefore
wished to exterminate this disorderly
element. While not countenancing Ar
menian agitation, the signatories of the
Berlin treaty have strongly disapproved
of Turkey's methods In crushing the agi
tation. It Is the belief in official circles that the
international Armenians will use the new
outrages as a lever to Induce the civilized
powers to unite in decisive action against
Turkey.

County will result as follows: The cltj
and county and outside precincts will
lose $50,000 revenue every jear. One
third of the buildings In Astoria will b
vacant; 600 laboring men will be throwr
out of employment. Merchants will be
compelled- to go out of business or movi
over into Washington. Astoria will not
have a population of 5000. The expenses
of maintaining the city government will
be Just as much, and there will be nc
revenues to pay it. Taxes will be sc

of the world and send all the Prohibi
