CHICAGO. Sept. 6. (AP).
At least eight persons were killed
and 100 or more injured tonight
when a local train from El Roy,
Wis., on the Chicago and North
western railway was ploughed into
by a Chicago and Northwestern
train from Madison, Wis.
The El Roy train was discharg
ing passengers at the Corland
street station, four miles from
downtown, when the Madison ran
into it. The last two coaches of
the El R3y train were telescoped,
and it was in them that most of
tho deaths and injuries occurred.
Both trains were composed of
wooden coaches and were filled
with passengers returning to Chi
cago after holiday outings.
As the crash occurred a north
bound train with- headlight blaz
ing brightly was said to have been
abreast the train struck, and that
wait- given as the cause of the
Madison train's engineer not see
ing the halted train into which he
drove. No one on the Madison
train was killed.
Scores of patrol wagons and
fire apparatus were rushed to the
scene of the crash. Torches and
axes were used in cutting out in
jured persons pinned down by the
wreckage. j
Doctors and nurses from nearby
hospitals were rushed to the1 scene
and gave first aid. 1
One woman whose leg was sev
ered was pinned down by wreck
age and was released only after
long minutes of agony. . A man
was pinned down by a beam, but
it was believed his life would be
saved.

RIVER WATER SAMPLES
SHOW MUCH POLLUTION

Anti-pollution Conference Is
Discuss Problem Here
Friday
to
PORTLAND, Sept. 6. (AP)
Samples of water taken from
12
different points along the Willam
ette river south of Portland dur
ing a preliminary survey by ex
perts of the state board of health,
show that considerable pollution
of the river is being caused by the
sewage being poured in from Cot
tage Grove, Eugene, Newberg, and
other towns situated on the river.
. The survey was 'made by Dr.
William jUeyin, director of the
state board of health hygenlc-laboratory,
and George N. McDaniel,
state sanitary engineer, collabo
rating with , Dr. Frederick i D.
Strieker,, epidemiologist. .X'-J-
The pollution was, found tojbe
the worst .below Cottage Grove
and Eugene. Samples of the
water taken from a short distance
above the two towns showed only
a low degree of bacterial content
and sewage pollution.
The situation was found to be
less serious near the other towns.
Below Salem only a moderate pol
lution was found by the experts.
According to Dr. Strieker this
might be due to tbe great amount
of Industrial waste sent into the
river at Salem . and which un
doubtedly destroys -much of the
bacteria from the sewage. Oa the
other hand, he thinks, the indus
trial waste may hare a decided ef
fect of lowering the oxygen con
tent of the river and harm its fish
life.
It is evident, according to Dr.
