WRECK ON O.R.&N. REDUCE HARRIMAN POWERS. He Sinking Fill Near Cayase Casts Train Into Ditch. CARS BREAK LIKE EGG SHELLS Four Persons Killed, Four Seriously Injured and More Than Score Badly Hurt. Pondloton, April 11. Four persons wore instantly killed, four seriously in jured and more than ft scoro ot othois cut, bruised and badly ahakon up in tho woret wreck in the history of the O. R. & N., which occurred yesterday morn ing about 3:30 o'clock near Cayuse sta tion, about 15 miles cast of tills city, just at the foot of tho Blue mountains. The monster engine turned a complete somersault in the air, and, now, com pletely wrecked, is standing on end in tho Umatilla river. Tho mail car, two baggage cars and a smoker are piled in a heap, tho former being Binashed into kindling wood. No passenger coaches with the ex ception of the Emoker left tho track, though passengers were hurled from their seats and berths, many of them receiving severe cuts and bruises. Tho smoker was left standing nearly on end and the occupants were thrown in a heap to the front end of the car, which was crushed in like an egg shell. Why many of them were not instantly killed and all seriously mangled cannot bo explained by the trainmen. The train was passenger No. 5, in charge of Conductor Coykendall, four hours late and moving al a slow speed, which acounts for the small number of passengers injured. The wreck was caused by a fill across the gulch giving way under the weight of the engine. Union Pacific Directors Believe Has Too Great Control. Now York, April 12. Somo of tho diroctora of tho Union Faciflc railroad favor a material reduction of tho extra ordinary powers conferred upon ita prosidont, Edward H. Harriiunn, which mnko tho company a one-man affair. At prcaont tho oxecutivo committeo haa all tho powers of tho directors whon the latter are not in session, and Mr. Harriman has all tho powers of tho executive committeo when' that body is not in session. In other words, Mr. Harriman can do as ho pleases, ex cept for the fow minutes onco a week or onco a month, whon tho committee is in session. JElo has a power of attorney and could soil tho millions upon millions of the securities of other roads owned by tho Union Pacific at what prico ho pleated, or ho could hypothecate securities, bor row tons of millions upon them from banks and engage in stock markot op erations on a colossal scale. In the hope of appeasing the Union Pacific stockholders and eliminating the public distrust in tho securities of the Harriman roads, it is proposed to put somo new blood in the executive committee, reorganize tho body and adopt resolutions taking away from Mr. Harriman somo of tho powers which have provoked so much criticism.

COMING IN DROVES. Thousands of Homeseekers Flocking Westward Daily. Portland, April 11. After making a careful estimate of the colonist business coming West, A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent for the North ern Pacific, who has just returned from the East, estimates that between 5,000 and 7,000 homeseekers are leaving the Eastern gateways daily and that this tremendous movement will continue during the season. Mr. Charlton paid particular atten tion to the colonist movement while away. He personally visited the de pots, where crowds of west bound homeseekers are flocking to the trains and crowding the coaches. Many, not finding seats, are even willing to stand, so eager are they to get to the now promised land. The Northern Pacific, according to Mr. Charlton, is hauling between 2,500 and 3,000 colonists out of St. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth every day. The Great Northern and 'Soo" lines, of course, takes a great many more. Taking the southern gateways into con sideration, Mr. Charlton believes that the total number leaving for the West with the avowed intention of making their homes here will run close to 7,000 every day of the 60-day season. Congressmen Say Work on Canal Is Progressing Rapidly. "Washington, April 12. Chairman Tawney, of the house committee on ap propriations and Representative Olcott, who have recently returned from a visit to the isthmus of Panama, today dis cussed with tho president conditions as they found them. Mr. Tawney is favor ably impressed with the progress being made in the canal work, and tcld tho president he thought that at the pres ent rate the waterway should be com pleted in five years. He said he regarded it as unfortunato that the engineering world had been representing to the people that an al most impossible engineering problem confronted it. Tho principal conditions now to be met, ho said, were those of sufficient railroad capacity to take care of the dirt excavated, and sanitation with the view to keeping the place in a good, healthful condition. Mr. Tawney also discussed with tho president questions affecting congres sional appropriations for canal work, and it is likely some legislation bear ing on the subject, will be recommend ed to congress as the result of the visit to the isthmus. Growing Demand Creates Now Inter est Among Stockmen. Salem Tho horso shows held at Stayton and Woodburn rocontly wero so successful and so great has tho in horses become throughout this coun ty that Secretary Frank Welch, of the state board of agriculture, has called a meeting of horsemen to bo hold here to preparo plans for an exhibition horso fair to be hold in this city Boon. On account of tho market advanco in prices and the demand for fine horses, I which are vory scarce on account of Eastern buyers having scoured tho county and taken out so many, apromi-1 um fund will be inaugurated and every horseman and those interested in horses will bo asked to contribute something to the fund.

Judge Reuben Patrick Boise, one of the earliest pion eers, ablest jurists, founders of the fundamental laws, and moulders of the destiny of the state of Oregon, passed away at his old home in this city shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday after noon. His malady was a combination of stomach and kidney trouble. He had reached the advanced age cf 87 years, 9 months and 22 days. There was perhaps no better known and prominent man in the public mind of the state of Oregon or the Pacific Northwest than Judge Boise. He was ono of the three who framed tho first code of laws of the Oregon territory; one of the few surviving members of the constitutional convention of the state. Try to Kill Grand Duke. St. Petersburg, April 11. It was an nounced today that another attempt on tho life of Grand Duke Nicholas Nicho laiovitch had been frustrated. The grand duke was returning from Tear-skoe-Selo by train at 2 o'clock this morning. When tbe.train was 13 miles from St. Petersburg it was brought lo a Eiidden stop by a fusilade of shots from tho track side. The sentry said he had seen four men hiding behind an em bankment. The men succeeded in get ting away, though several shots wero fired at them. Questions Authority to Forbid ering of Statistics. St. Petersburg, April 12. Premier Stolypin, in attempting to limit the competence of the lower house of par liament by forbidding its committees to obtain statistics from the Zemstvos and avail themselves of outside expert ad vice, has been defied by the public. President Golovin had written a curt letter to the premier asking him on what grounds and under what law he is entitled to address such demands to the imperial parliament. The law, M. Golopin says, contains a paragraph au thorizing the lower house of parliament to interpellate the government but no where was there a reciprocal right on the part of the ministers. The actions of President Golcvin and the budget committeo were taken after a long conference between the president and leaders of all the parties in parlia ment except the extreme right, and brings tho issuo squarely bofore the cabinet. The discussion of the budget in com mitteo is expected to last from four to eix weeks. The estimates probably will bo accepted, with minor changes by tho house, when presented. Rains Delay Seeding. .renuieton as a result ot tno rainy weather that has prevailed all over this section during tho greater part of tli spring it has been difficult for farmers to get spring work done as early as us uai. unaer orumary conditions prac tically all of the spring seeding is done by the middle of April, but much land meant for spring grain this year is yet unsown. To mako the situation worse there is more than tho usual amount of spring grain to bo sown this year, bo cause of the dry weather during the early fall, and some of those who seed ed in the late fall met disaster because cold weather kept tho wheat from germ inating. Consequently the latter liave to reseed now. However, tho only ro seeding of consequence is in tho north western part of tho county, where more Jate sowing was done than on the reser vation.
