Henry R. Roc, eniployed by tlm Clat
op mill, in thia city, wa inatantly
killi-d yenterday morning ahoitly after
the mill atarted up. ,If wa employed
on the big deck, a poitlon of dangr.
hut iH-ing a careful man, he waa en
trusted with the polthm. A large log
wa on the carriage and one flu It had
been cut off. Hi duty wa to remove
block under the log when the nigger
had puhed it over, o a to turn it on
the carriage. By me miw-alculation,
he Mailed to put the block in, or take
it out too aiKin, and the nigger came up,
pinning hi head between it and the
log. cruhing hi head In a frightful
manner. A coroner a jury wa empanel
led to enquire into the caue of hi
death, cotnpoaed of the, following)
Adolph Jolm.on, A. L. Clark, f-orge
F. Parker, J. Strati, Charle Bohr and
The Ilro.yicr. The following uri-
dence wa giten at the inquexti
Ir. If, L. Hcndertton wa called and
tetifled a follow: ''I examined the
di'ceaed and found hi head completely
crushed, the kul being cruxhed and
the brain ditroyed and disappeared.
The an-ident would produce Instant
death. I am nt acquainted with the
deceased, but have acen him, do not know
hi name of my knowledge."
R. 11. Dyer wa .worn and testified:
"I am the general superintendent of the
Clatsop mill and vice-president. I
know Henry Roe, the deceased. I
should judge that he wa about 4.1 ycar.i
of age. He wa employed at the mill
on the log deck. I saw him there this
morning, alive, about ten minute after
7 o'clock, He wa in hi normal condi
tion. He ha been employed at the mill
since IWemlier, 1W2. and wa a careful
and solter man. He wa working under
the mill forcnam, J. C. McRoliert. I
saw him when he got killed. Mr. Frank
Humble, the head sawyer, waa there at
the time. He got hi head between one
of the arm of the big turner and the log
on the carriage. I can't account for the
accident, it waa airaply unacountable;
it wa what he waa doing every day.
The machinery waa all riirht. There
wa no carlenes on the part of Mr
Camble nor anr one else. No one wa
to blame but himself. It wa an unac
countable accident. I don't understand
how he could have dorse it.
Frank flamble wa the next wltne
and testified a follow: "I am head
oawyer at the Clatsop mill and wa
working there this morning. I knew
Henry Roe, he waa working at the mill
on the deck. I saw him when he got
killed. He waa about 10 feet from me.
He wa in hi normal condition. He wa
good, otcr, capable man. He waa
working on the forward push arm on the
log carriage. He put hi head between
the push arm and the log, while the
push arm wa coining up from the floor.
He reached to take a block from under
the log after the etcam wa turned on
the nigger. I made an effort to atop
the arm, but it could not be (topped in
time. I realized the danger and revers
ed tlie lever a soon aa possible, but it
wa too lute. There waa no one else
in eight except Mr. Dyer. 'After the
nigger ahoves-the log he should take
out the block, but he acemed to forget
himaelf, a the push arnt was coming up
he made a dive for the block. He did
not wait until the push arm shoved the
og back, aa ia customary. He acemed
to have made a false move. The force
waa turned off and there waa not suf
ficient force to move the log, but force
enough to crush hi skull.
After taking the tewtimony the judge
visited the mill. The log and everything
were left aa it was when the accident oc
curred eo the jury could better Invea
tigate it. The appearance of everything
the mill corroborated the evidence of
the witnesses and showed that neither
Mr. Gamble or any one else waa to blame
nd the accident could not hare been
avoided except by Mr. Roe himself.' The
ury returned the following verdictr '
"We, the undersigned jftrors, sworn
to enquire into the cause of the death
of Henry Roe, on oath do find that lit
came to his death on the 20th day ol
uly, 1005, at the Clatsop mill at As
toria, Clatsop county, Oregon, and that
his death was accidental."
