    THE SUNDAY OREGOMAX, rOKTLAND, JULY 20, 1913.
GHARGES ARE FIXED
AGAINST SOLDIERS
Privates Cameron, Kertz, Tib
bits and Johnson to Be
Tried at Ft. Stevens.
SECRET COMPOUND STOLEN
Under 6 2d Article of AVar Will Army
Men Be Put Under Court-Martial.
Clandestine Affair at San
Francisco Reported.
FORT STEVENS. Or., July 19. (Spe
cial.) "All crimes not capital and all
disorders and neglects which officers
and soldiers may be guilty of, to the
prejudice of good order and military
discipline, though not mentioned in the
foregoing' articles of war, are to be
taken cognizance of by a general, or
a regimental garrison, or field officers'
courtmartlal, according to the nature
and degree of the offense, and pun
ished at the discretion of such court."
62d article of war.
The above is the article of war
under which Privates Cameron. Kertz.
Johnson and Tibbits are to be tried
at Fort Stevens. This is the elastic
clause of the military code, inasmuch
as it Is the article under which all of
fenses, not subject to a direct ruling,
are tried.
The specifications against the vari
ous men to be tried on this general
charge have not been made public.
However, this much has become known,
namely, that Private Edward Johnson
is alleged to nave stolen a pint flask
of Dunnlte, the secret compound used
to explode the armor-piercing shells of
the coast-defense guns.
Explosive la Powerful.
This explosive is said to be the most
powerful in use. Its peculiar advantage
lies in the fact that it can be safely
handled and fired out of a gun with
out danger of premature explosion
taking place. It has an extremely
penetrating odor and possesses the
strongest kind of dyeing- qualities. The
hair of all soldiers required to use it
in lining shells turas a brilliant gol
den yellow. This strange coloring
noes not disappear until the hair grows
out and is cut off. Though it is gen
erally believed that it Is derived from
some form of picric acid, it is said that
Dut three officers in the United States
service are familiar with the exact in
gredients that are used in its com
- position.
It is further stated among Army peo
ple that the Japanese are the only
people possessing anything remotely
equaling it in destructive force; In
fact, that the powder they use is an
imperfect imitation of this far-famed
substance.
Cameron, it is stated. is to be
charged with the composition of much
of, the unsigned communications ap
pearing in the public press that re
flected on the Government in general
and the Army in particular.
Clandestine Affair Reported.
Tibbits is reported to be involved In
a clandestine affair that took place In
San Francisco.
Mechanic Davis, who deserted dur
ing the early part of the investigation,
is being widely sought. He is said to
have been in the city of Hammond up
to 11 o'clock of the night of Crawford's
death, that he mysteriously disap
peared about that time and was not
again seen until he returned to the
post the following morning, about 2
o'clock. One of the prisoners now con
fined is accused of having been with
Davis.
Mr. Vogel, the civilian tailor whom
Shade testified had attempted to bribe
him, is now. amongst the list of miss
ing witnesses. He had been -served
with a Government subpena to appear
as a witness for the prosecution, and
the time limit set on this document is
now up. The failure of a witness to
appear on such a summons carries
with it six months imprisonment. All
traces of Vogel have been completely
lost. Vogel enjoyed the unenviable
reputation of being the leading factor
in the local situation after Coffman
was eliminated.
MOLALLA IS PROGRESSING
Many Buildings Being Built and
Population Is Growing.
MOLALLA, Or., July 19. (Special.)
Work on the Portland, Eugene & East

years Molalla has been connected with
steam and electric lines by ah auto
.stage to Oregon City, IS miles distant.
The new line will be electrified within
a few months, but at first steam power
' win De useo.
T On August 15 the town will vote on

ings and numerous residences are un

nity with electricity. The town also
has a band of 24 pieces.
NAME OF RIVER TO STAND
Snake Will Xot Be Changed to Lewis,
According to Geographer.
LEWISTON, Idaho, July 19. (Spe
cial.) There is little prospect of
changing the name of the Snake River
to Lewis River, as has been proposed
by many associations and organiza
tions throughout Idaho, Washington
and Oregon, according to a letter re
ceived today by H. L. Talkington, head
of the department of history of the
Lewiston State Normal, from Henry
Garnett, chairman of the National Geo.
graphic Society.
Mr. Garnett says there is no question
as to the desirability of a change, but
believes that it would be Impossible
because the name "Snake" has been
used in creating the territories in en
abling acts ami constitutions of the
three Northwest states. He further
thinks that it would be useless, owing
to the long usage of the term.

LOG ROAD WELL BUILT
BELIEF IS LINE 13 SOUTHERN
PACIFIC PROJECT.
So-called Smith-Powers Construc
tion Up South Fork of Coquille
Is of Heavy Material.
COQUILLE. Or., July 19. (Special.)
There is reason to believe that the
so-called Smith-Powers logging rail
road from Myrtle Point 20 miles up the
south fork of the Coquille River is in
tended as a Southern Pacific outlet
south to its California connections. It
is surmised that the line from Marsh
field to Myrtle Point, known as the Coos
Bay, Roseburg & Eastern and owned by
the Southern Pacific, is now being put
in condition as a connecting link be
tween the Eugene & C003 Bay line, now
under construction, and what Is known
as the Smith-Powers road.
The latter is headed directly for 'a
pass down the coat, and the road is
being constructed in the best possible
manner with reference both to grading,
steel and bridge work. Practically the
entire right of way is cleared, which
would not likely be done were the road
to be used exclusively for logging pur
poses. All bridges and trestles are of
the heaviest and best materials, and con
struction work in every detail is sub
stantial, while the steel Is of 90-pound
type.
Another indication that this sup
posedly logging road is intended for
permanent use as a main line to the
Southern Paciflc is the fact that the 25
miles between Marshfield and Myrtle
Point is practically being rebuilt the
entire distance. In several places the
grade has been reduced' to the mini
mum, and changes in the line have
been made while others are under way.
A crew of Italians were sent to this
city last week for the purpose of build
ing a new line a considerable distance
along the bank of the Coquille River,
back approximately SO feet from the
present track, and this work is now in
progress, entailing the cutting away of
a mountain side, and an expenditure of
a large amount of money.
Those persons who have been over
the country in the direction south from
the contemplated terminus of the log
ging road say that it is the most
feasible route to the California' line,
following to a low pass and then direct
ly back to the coast. It Is reported here
that a surveying party is now in Curry
County working along this route
towards the south fork of the Coquille
River, the terminus of the logging road
of the Smith-Powers Company.
While this company has extensive
timber interests along the line of the
new railroad, those in a position to
speak understanding on the subject
say without hesitation that these in
terests would by no means warrant the
building of such a railroad were It to
be used exclusively for this purpose,
and the settlement of the territory, into
which it is projecting is sparse and
will be for years to come.

July 5. There were present at the
hour of death Lewis E-, Mrs. H.' T.
Rankin, of Portland; Eugene, Mrs.
Perry Graham and Chester A., three
sons and two daughters, and other im

Lewis Alfred Loomis was born on a
farm in Tompkins' County, New York,
October 9, 1830. He left the parental
roof in 1852 and took passage by the
Panama route for California, where he
landed at San Francisco on May 22 of
the same year. He started at once for
the mines, where he followed mining
and other employment for three years.
In 1855 he came to Washington Terri
tory and located, with his brother
Edwin G-, at Pacific City. At The
Dalles Mr.' Loomis enlisted in Colonel
J. W. Nesmith's volunteers, and he
served In the Indian campaigns for 210
days, and was engaged for four days
in the battle of Walla Walla, in which
the Indian chief and warrior, Peu Peu
Mox Mox (Yellow Bird).- was killed.
Family Call Heard.
In 1857 the death of immediate mem
bers of the family caused Mr. Loomis
to return to his home in New York
State and care for his widowed mother
wnere he remained until 1864. Then he
went to the South and took charge of a
construction-company, building and re
pairing railroads for Army movements,
and was with General Sherman on his
celebrated march to the sea. At the
close of the Civil War he removed to
Michigan, where he lived until 1872.
In the Spring of that year he returned
to Washington, took up his residence
at Oystervllle and bought the farm on
which he made his home for 40 years.
Here he went into the business of rais
ing sheep in partnership with his
brother, Edwin G-, in which they both
prospered. ' The difficulty in getting
his wool properly handled, on account
of inadequate wharfage, led Mr. Loomis
to build the. first wharf at Ilwaco.
Transportation Work Attract.
From 1874. the date of the incorpora
tion of the Ilwaco Wharf Company, Mr.
Loomis began his career as a builder
of transportation lines, steamboats,
stage routes and railroad construction
on the -Lower Columbia. In 1875 he
was elected president of the Ilwaco
Steam Navigation Company. Then fol
lowed, in 1881, the organization of the
Shoalwater Bay Transportation 'Com
pany. (
As commerce expanded and travel in
creased, a general demand was made
for a railroad to connect the Colum
bia River with Shoalwater Bay and in
cidentally develop North Beach as a
Summer resort. To satisfy this de
mand Mr.' Loomis reorganized the
Ilwaco Steam Navigation Company, and
this company immediately began the
construction of a railroad along the
beach from Ilwaco. and in 1888 five
miles were built and In active opera
tion. " .
In 1874 Mr. Loomis was elected
County commissioner, and that was the
only office he would accept -at the
solicitation of his friends.
On February 1, 1877, Miss Louisa J.
Glover, daughter of Philip Glover, of
Salem, Or., became the wife of Mr.
Loomis. The result of this union was
five children three sons and two
daughters., all of whom are living. Mrs.

CITY AND ROAD AGREE
GRAXTS PASS OPENS STREET
OVER SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Right of Way Controversy, Started
In Early Nineties, Ends With
out Litigation.
GRANTS PASS. Or., July 19. (Spe
cial.) Fourth street was opened to
traffic across the Southern Pacific
tracks here this week thus ending an
old controversy between Grants Pass
and the railroad company.
In 1887 when the then sparsely settled
village of Grants Pass, a mere lumber
camp in the heart of the hills, decided
to incorporate itself Into a city the
right of way of the Southern Pacific
passed between the group of one-story
shake stores, rough shack saloons and
primitive boarding houses. The orig
inal townsite mapped out by ex-Senator
Jonathan Bourne.C. J. Smith and otheis
provided for but one open thorough
fare across the railroad right of way,
its sponsors little dreaming that the
miniature city would ever need more
than one thoroughfare to bear the
burden of its commerce across the iron
tracks.
Ten years passed and two separate
business districts developed on either
side or the tracks. One street was
compelled to bear the connecting bur
den of traffic which even- then was con.
slderable, while pedestrians and the
drivers of pleasure vehicles were con
tlnually harassed by long waits for
some passing freight train to clear the
city yards. Then was filed the first
of a series of humole petitions in whicn
the Southern Pacific Company was asked
to open another street or more across
its tracks. The railroad company re
fused. Two years ago another demand
was made for the opening of tio
streets parallel to the one already
opened. Again the railway refused.
The city administration filed suit
against the company to condemn the
right of way for extensions of Fourth
and Fifth streets. But - the railway
company had stolen the first march by
dumping loads of gravel, concrete and

suit, but just as a hearing was about
to be had men high in the councils of
the Southern Pacific and the city dads
were brought together to smoke the
peace pipe with the result that the rail
road company offered to open Fourth
street and deed the right of way to the
city In perpetuity in case the city
would agree to forever relinquish any
right to the opening of Fifth street.
The offer wag accepted. The city
bonded itself to pave the street 300 feet
across the tracks, the contract was let
and this week for the first time in the
history of the town Grants Pass has
two streets running north and south
across the tracks the entire distance
from Rogue River to the mountains.
The street recently opened Is 60 feet
wide and paved.
