get a 5 per cent petition asking the
council to place the question of annex
Portland on the bauot ior
jln June,, the plan -will meet
according to' announcement
made, by Will JL Daly, commissioner
; of public utilities.
Commissioner Daly .-Wednesday --.op
'.. posed the plan of submitting th ques
tion, but said that be would agree to
it If a petition containing the names
of S per emt of the voters in the last
general' citfy" election was filed with
th council "
However,) he has learned that a water
bond Issue of $50,000 has been au-thor-'
iaed by this - Llnnton voters, - and f the
. bonds. are to be sold before the people
of Portland have a .chance to vote on
the question' of annexation, and as a
. result is to I oppose the annexation plan.
"Originally, I opposed the plan - of
annexation, said Commissioner? taly.
"I do not believe that Fortlandwould
be Justified in taking- in the Llnnton
territory and assume its liabilities.
There Ut a j great deal of vacant prop
' erty.. between Portland ' ancT Llnnton
; proper, I told the Llnnton residents
that I would vote for the plan to sub
mit the- question if presented , with, a
fr per cent petition, but at that time i
did not know of this contemplated sale
of $50,000 In water bonds. .
"It Llnnton were annexed we would
have to assume this liability. I am
':- Kolng to oppose it' when the question
, comes before the council again." .,
As result of this opposition it is
probable that those of Llnnton favor
liig annexation will hold a conference
with the members of the city council
before .further action is taken toward
circulating the petitions i ; - v

TOLL IN CRASH
BETWEEN AUTOS
(Continued From Page One.)
5Jtsion yesterday that the light touring
- car was hurled high in the air, and
- was rollejd -over and over three-times
.before it stopped, 35 feet away, .The
- racing machine on the other hand was
bi-arcely scratched. ; ,
lye witnesses say that the occu
pants of th racer, as they paused oa"
after striking the touring car turned
v?Dd roundly cursed their victims for
blocking the street. '
The cession occurred at 1:45. Both
innclidnes were on the way to the Rose
. City Park speedway for the "races yes
terday afternoon.
J- According- to Miss Easterbee, who
wade a statement to Deputy : District
. Attorney Richard Deich and' Deputy
City Attorney 6tadter at the Good Sa
.; inaritan hospital -their machine was
'going slowly, because they had ifcnty
I of time, and the street was jaongested
with the hundreds of other vehicles,
also bound for the course. . i ; -"We
beard that '-funny horn -they
had on the car.said Miss Easterbee.
.""and I turned around and looked. They
were coming toward , us awful, fast,'
Their machine did not skid, and I saw
that it was going to come close. I
, am sure that we were not weaving
back and forth across the street as
they said. I remember no more of
I the affair, excepting after they picked
me up." - -
All Are Portland Men.
! The racing car was occupied by Held,
who was driving, and John Roscovich
and Elbert Westfall. All are mechanics
, iat Dundee's garage at 575 Jefferson
street. Reld lives at the Angela hotel,
. Washington and Trinity place.
Boscovich was to ride with Reid,
who - was entered in the 6 and 25
-untie races and, Westfall. was to act as
, pit mechanic. '
t Forty feet west of the southwest
corner of Forty-ninth and Tillamook
streets, the collision' occurred. The
Ii"ot of the racer attempted, witnesses
eay, to go arourid the tourihg car. The
. front part of his machine passed safe
ty, but the long hub-camp of the racer
caught the fron wheel of the other
-machine. " ;" : : . :.
' With a ripping crash that was heard
for blocks, the touring car was whirled
over and over, across Curb, sidewalk,
a corner of the parking, into a tele-
,.. phone pole, stopping on the edge of
the west curb of Tillamook street.
Hyde was pinned tinder the car. His
death was instant, caused by the
: crushing of his skull. Mrs. Spencer;
- and Miller were also imprisoned tinder
the machine. . Neither' was unconscious.
Passing automobillsts telephoned for
ambulances. Miss lias terbee. was tossed
on the grass. parking, and is practically
r uninjured. v . i
' Mechanician "Return.
In the meantime the racing machine
continued eastward.- Its occupants
ilooked back, saw the damage, and the
machine was stopped a block down the
. street. Boscovich and Westfall re
turned to the scene. Reid said he did
not leave the car because It war mot
equipped with emergency braker; and
lie had. to. watcli it.
In a few minutes the two mechanics
went back to toe car, and it prjeeeded
,L to the park. Reid was surrounded by
a crowd with whom be was discussing
the amashup,- when he- was aiTested.
- a. few minutes later, by Captain of
Detectives Baty.
After Miller was taken from under
the car,- he .walked, ' assisted, ft the
ambulance, but could not talk. ' In the
: ambulance lie steadily lost strength,
and as life- waa bein g carried u p the
elevator . at " the hospital, . he died.
The injured, were attended at - the
. scene of the accident by Dr. ; "V7. R.
Laldlaw, ' who resides a few blocks
from the spot. ,
'. - At : the hospital - it r was found that
' Mrs. Spencer waa suffering from frac
tured collar bone, arm and three ribs.
Her sister, save for the shock, wag un
injured and was able, to leave the
hospital last evening. '
Miller's death is said to-have tfeen
- caused by an internal injury. Not a
bone in hi3 body was broken and ex-
- amlnation at the public morgue last
.night failed to disclose a single abra
sion or bruise on (he body,, with the
exception of a slight scratch on the
cheek. .
Reid, accordtng to Cap tun - Baty,
. vis . at ..first inclined to be 'defiant
when arrested,, but quickly quieted
' down when Informed' of the -seriousness
of the I affair. - To "Deputy Dts-
trict Attorney Deich and Deputy City
Attorneyi Stadter. be made a state
ment. , - s,
I saw the car ahead of me zigzag
ging, and the driver acted as if he did
not - know where he was going," said
Reid. , "Then he swung to the right to
let me pass, but beore I got by he
misjudged the distance, I guess, and
swung towards me again. I heard
the noise ; and felt the shock, but it
didn't seem eerious. - I sent Boscovich
back and left Westfall .there."
? "1 have been -driving machines for
eight years,' and have been In races
through the 'northwest, ' Other than a
tjrother in Alaska, I have no relatives."
, Boscovich ' lives- at 653 Clay street
and Elbert Westf all lives at 84, North
Eighteenth 'Street. Both made state
ments last night to the attorneys, dif
fering, only from Reid's in tbat-tney
said their; machine was going at -least
30 miles an hour, while the driver said
he was going between 20. and 25 miles
an hour.- r .. . ' j. -
"The girls In the. back seat turned
and looked and waved at us, - and the
fellows turned and, laughed,, too," said
Boscovicit Both' men are held in Jail
as witnesses.

Mr? Greenough told friends of th
neighborhood tliat she was attracted
to the window of her home by the tre
mendous noise, made by the powerful
racing machine, "and" watched it, ex
pecting something to happen. The
smashup occurred an instant later.
V Five other persons were in an auto

B0WLBY DENOUNCES
STATEMENTS OF KAY
AS WHOLLY FALSE
(Continued .From Page One.)
stated in the meeting of March 22 that
he thought it "Should have, been a' bet
ter policy; to have built 'more -miles
of mediocre:-roads, than ! to work to
accomplish such an ambitious, scheme
as opening' top the Columbia highway
on standard lines and grades through
out Columbia,'. county.
t "Governor Withycombe disagreed
with Kay and stated that he.-thought
my plns f were good, and that the
road movement would ' be best' served
by doing as much each year as possir
ble along right JInes, , until an entire
road " could be thrown open to traffic,
built On proper ' s grades : and with
proper curvature.
'Relative to the size of payrolls. I
want to say that . no -men were em
played who were not needed. It was
thought to be economy, and now has
proved to be so, to keep on the pay
roil the district engineers in charge of
contract work, rather than to- get rid
of everyone who had personal knowl
edge Of the work under contract and.
When work was resumed in the spring,
have to break In a set of fresh engi
neers. Such a i ' policy would 5 have
pleased the contractors'and would have
been an apparent but false economy.
In Jackson county, County Judge
Touvelle has always been' very much
pleased with the character of the work
done in that county. The remarks at
tributed to the judge by Kay were
never made in my presence, and I do
not believe they; were made at all by
him. ; : i . . . . - ;
"No community ever received more
for the money spent than haa been re
ceived by Clatsop, Columbia and Jack
son counties. It would . take too much
space to enter into detail on this sub
ject. ' The .work accomplished is cov
ered in detail In my annual report.,
Major Bowlby has Just returned from
a three weeks' ; ;tour of good roada
which . extended as far north as Vic
toria and -Vancouver; B. ft, and he
therefore, had no opportunity to reply
earlier to Kay's assertions. ,
