The party had been picnicking up the Sandy River. They were returning when the accident occurred. About 150 yards outside the city limits of Trout dale they met a man driving with a ' horse and cart. The horse appeared frightened and Mr. Welty, who was steering the auto, turned to the left and gave the man the Inside track en the narrow road. Auto Turns Over. In the twilight he apparently thought - that the grass and weeds on the bank covered a continuation of the road, for he drove directly over the bank. The automobile turned completely over as It rolled down the ateep embankment, made another half revolution at the bottom and lay upside down in the weeds and brush only a few yards from the bank of the river. Mr. Welty and Marian Zollinger were pinned beneath the car. The edge of the door lay directly across Mr. Welty's neck. The child was com pletely under the car, with one foot ConoIuded en Page -) SOME OF 0I11E5 OVER BANK it -7TT 1 .

Highwaymen, With Rifle and Revol ver, Stand Men and Women Up Along Road; Take Valuables. MARSHFIELD, Or, June 27. (Spe cial.) Eight automobiles, loaded with dancers, en route to a roadhouse dance. were held up, one after another, be tween Marshfield and South Inlet late tonight by two to six masked robbers who stripped the occupants of the autos of all money and Jewels and then escaped. The highwaymen, armed with a rifle' and a revolver, stood the victims up along the road at the point of their guns and as fast as one autoload was robbed they were told to drive on. Several women nearly fainted of fright. At a late hour only one auto chauf feur had reached Marshfield, and he said he believed the robbers had taken one of the automobiles to make their getaway. Charles Bowman, the first chauffeur to reach town, notified the authorities and posses have been formed. Word has been sent to the drawbridge keeper at South Inlet to keep the draw open and the robbers' escape may be cut off In that way. The entire district be tween here and Empire has been awak ened and officers are on the lookout. Bowman reported that he was sure there were two robbers and that he thought there were five or six operat ing on the automobiles behind him. He was not allowed time to look around after his car had been robbed. I BARGE IS DRIVEN ASHORE Freighter Attempting to Aid in Rough Sea Is Badly Damaged. DULUTH, June 27.

' THE WEEK'S NEWS EVENTS WHICH WERE CHOCK FULL OF ACTION APPEALED TO CARTOONIST BANK WILL ERECT $1000, First National Will Build in 18 Months. AVAILABLE SITES CONSIDERED Structure Likely Will Be Lo cated Near The Oregonian. MERGER PLANS COMPLETE Union With Security Savings and Trust Company, Soon to ' Take Place, Will Make Present' Quarters Inadequate. A typical bank building,' designed exclusively for banking purposes and costing $1,000,000. will be built by the First National Bank within the next IS months in the central business dis trict. The site nas not been definitely settled, but it will be In the neighbor hood of the Oregonian buUding. Several available sites are being con sidered, among them properties owned by the Corbett estate and the Security Saving & Trust Company, which soon Is to be consolidated with the First National Bank. Corbett Estate Owns Both Banks. Both banks are controlled largely by the H. W. Corbett estate and members of the late Senator Corbett's family. It is reasonably certain that the new bank building will rise on property owned by the Corbett Interests. A site that has been considered is that at the southwest corner of Fifth and Stark streets, occupied by the J. G. Mack furniture store. Mr. Mack has an eight-year lease and It is said that he is unwilling to surrender It pre vious to Its expiration. The property at the northwest corner of Fourth and Alder streets, formerly occupied by the Louvre grill, also Is being considered. For a time it was reported that the First National was planning to erect a bank and office building to cover .the entire block occupied by. the Corbett homestead on Fifth, Yamhill, Sixth and Salmon streets. This plait has- been abandoned, however. . Buflldlns; Plan Decided. That the First National will erect a new building has been definitely deter mined by its directors. Some of the details, even, have been tentatively ar ranged. Present plans call for an Imposing structure of marble and granite, prob ably 100 feet high, with a dome ceiling supported by the walls, leaving the In terior without pillar or post. The general style of architecture will resemble that of the new Bank of Cali fornia In San Francisco. It is not intended to accommodate other offices in the new structure with the possible exception of such that are directly related to the bank. Consolidation Plana Complete. Plans for consolidation of the First National and the Security Savings & Trust Company have been completed. The two Institutions will merge Just as soon as necessary alterations In prog ress in the rooms occupied by the Se curity Bank in the Corbett building are completed. It was intended first to effect the union about July 5, but this is physically impossible, as the altera tions cannot be completed In that time. Officers and directors of both the First National and the Security are agreed that they will not be able long to handle the business of the combined bank in the quarters in the Corbett building.

Disappoint ed because President Wilson has not ordered Federal troops to Montana, and, desiring to save their property against attacks from mobs, merchants of Butte tonight placed armed guards In their stores. One of the larger stores had watchmen patrolling tne siaew.. The placing of the guards Is nothing more than a precautionary measure. Ever since the riots of two weeks ago. caused by factional fights In the local union of the Western Federation of Miners, Butte has labored under a tense situation. Almost 1000 members m .u. of the Industrial workers oi m World have come here since the first open break In the nnton, and. until yes terday, when the police force wa in creased by 12 men who were on tne eligible list no apparent effort had been made by city authority- to stop the rioting.

The first meet ing of the new organization, which has taken the name of the Butte Mlnework- ers' Union, will be held Tuesday night. The faction loyal to President Moyer, of the Western Federation, who still Is In Helena, announced that it od tained office rooms and would be ready by Monday to resume work of reor ganizing the Butte local under the plan outlined by President Moyer on tne night the miner's hail was dyp ilied. First Shot Fired From HalL The Inquest Into the dea"- of Ernest J. Noy, who was killed In the rioting Tuesday night, was completed today, and, after testimony of numerous wit nesses was taken, it was continued until July 6. Testimony was to the effect that the first shot was fired from the miners' hall, and that the bullet that passed through Noy came from the halL Ed ward Duncan, son of the Mayor, testi fied that while he was in the hall he saw that President Moyer was armed, as were almost all other men In the room. Duncan quoted Moyer as say ing: "A person would he a fool to come to this meeting without being armed." Many witnesses testified reluctantly. All who entered the Coroner's office were searched for weapons. N" ca pons were found. On unquestionable authority it was said that seven "gunmen" of Butte went to Anaconda last night, with the avowed intention of killing Moyer, who (Concluded on Fags 2.) LUMBER PRICE UP; ORDERS CROWD IN SHIXGLES JOIN' IX ADVANCE AXD DEALERS ARE HAPPY. With Stocks of Retailers Low Mann factnrers See Prospects Brighter Than for Years. SEATTLE, Wash-. June 17. (Special.) With orders and Inquiries piling up. lumber has advanced B0 cents a thou sand within the past week and shingles are up to I1.S0 for stars, with offers of $1.6$, an advance of 14 cents thousand within two weeks. Some of the rail ' lines are taxed for cars In which to haul the lumber and shingles that are now moving, and the business Is enjoying a brisk movement that It has not known In months. Should the movement increase with the harvesting of the crops, leading wholesalers and manufacturers declare that the railroads will be unable to furnish sufficient rolling stock to meet the requirements. Following out the tradition la the lumber trade, when lumber advances there Is an eagerness to buy. Country yards in the East for the past four years have been postponing the day for "stocking up." the hope arising within the past (0 days that the Pan ama Canal would give them the water rate. Inquiries and orders from all over the Middle West are pouring In. Wholesalers are aaaured of a profitable business on the present market level. All along the lumber line the out look Is one of optimism, backed by many orders, more Inquiries and a eon sequent cheerfulness for the Immediate future that the trade has not known since 1912. GIRLS TOLD: DON'T SPOON Practice Characterized aa Against Womanhood. Crime CHICAGO, June 27. - 'Spooning Is a crime against womanhood,' John J, Alexander, a director, today told $00 young women attending the older girls conference of the international Sun day school convention. "Pass the word along to girls who love to 'spoon' that it is the most degrading thing they can do one of the most degrading things they may permit. "Make the boys dean-minded and wholesome by the way you dress. Young men take a girl at her own valuation." Miss Margaret Slatterln, of Boston, made a similar talk at the olders boys conference. Using a flower aa an em blem of womanhood and tearing It apart bit by bit, she said: "No person on earth can make that flower whole and beautiful again. Be clean and be your sister's keeper." 3 MEN HURT ON MINNESOTA Trans-Paclflo Liner Delayed by Engine-Room Accident. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., June 27.

They were repeatedly sent to Moran's Jaw when he least expected them and sev. eral times with such force that the Flttaburger was sent wobbling, but there was not a single knockdown or anything that looked like a finishing blow. At the close Moran's face was bleeding from outs on the nosa and under the left eye. Johnson shewed no marks. Towards the middle of the contest It appeared as If Moras would not last the 20 rounds, but he showed courage and kept driving. Although he landed several times on the negro, his blows lacked force and were comparatively Ineffective. Now and then he tried land hard on his adversary and In en doing swung wildly through space.
