Colonel Roessler' Opinion
Colonel Rocssler, engineer in chief
of the jetty system at the mouth of
the Columbia, who was at Fort Stev
ens yesterday, looking into the acci
dent there on Wednesday, says: "It
is one of those accidents which evi
dently defies solution. However, the
open switch theory seems to be the
only one which can be accepted. But
the pilot engine went out over the
track early in the morning without
mishap, and everything was appar
ently in the best of shape. Two look
outs were on the pilednver ajid they
failed to see anything wrong with the
track, although it is their business to
keep a sharp lookout ahead. As the
nilcdrivcr was going over, these men
jumped and escaped injury."
OUR AIM
la to have the cleanest store and the best grade of
groceries to be found in the city.
OUR OBJECT
Is to have the patronage of people who are particular
what they eat.
