Cause of ' Disaster Both Trains
Running at High Rata of Speed at
Thin- of Collision.
Three men were injured and ten
horses killed when a fast freight and
the first section of the Campbell
Brothers circus train met headon on a
harp curve on the O. R. & N. between
Riparia and Orange City Junction
Sunday morning at 6:40. Misunder
standing of orders Is supposed to be
the cause.
The injured:
E. W. Baker, engineer on freight.
Bruised, back sprained and ankle
wrenched. Lives at Starbuck.
Louis, Myers, conductor on the
freight. Had head cut. Lives at
Starbuck.
Hurry Mackaday, ankle sprained.

The three injured men were
brought to Walla Walla yesterday af
ternoon and are now in St. Mary's
hospital in that city. Their condition
is not serious and all will be able
to leave the hospital within a few
days.
Em-ape Near Miraculous.
That many were not killed Is noth
ing short of a miracle as all saved
themselves by jumping. Engineer
Bake, when interviewed said both
crews thought they had the main line
and us a result were pushing their
trains along at a high rate of speed.
The cause of the wreck will probubly
never be known for sure though the
mixing of orders was the probable
cause.
Baker was running a switch engine
and one ear as freight No. 21, which
was about two hours late. He was
Instructed at Orange City Junction
that he would have a clear track as
far a Wallula. The circus trnin had
received orders to go to Grange City
Junction and there receive orders
where to pass 21.
Baker Tells Ilia Story.
Engineer Baker's story Is as fol
lows: "We were running about 40
miles an hour when In rounding a
sharp curve on the edge of the river
I saw ii n engine coming at us not
more than 100 feet nway. My fire
man, Jim Kroge, say the approaching
train about the same time and we
both yelled a warning. I looked at
Kroge long enough to sec him Jump. I
then slammed on the brakes and
Jumped. I don't believe my feet
touched the ground until I heard the
rumble and rending of steel and wod
accompanied by the noise mado by
the dying horses. When I was picked
up 1 saw n mass of wreckage piled
high above me and only a few feet
a wny."
l'lri'iiian Slightly Injured.
Kroge escaped with a wrenched an
kle, while Vanlmaster Persccll of

freight Jumped when he saw Kroge
leap from the engine. He escaped
with a few scratches. None of those

crew on the circus train as It was
made up at Starbuck. Nono of the
men on that train were injured, how
ever. Piled Under Wreckage.
All the horses killed were In the
first car and never had a chance for
their lives as tons of wreckage was
piled upon them. Five cars counting
one car of tho freight train left the
track, four of which piled on top of
each other. Both engines were de
molished. The first section of the show train

Enthusiasm for Chemical

a crash of glass and shrieks were
heard coming from the dormitory of
the hospital attendants. The mana
ger, followed by several employes,
rushed to the spot through clouds of
smoke and found the whole place a
wreck. Martin had literally been!
blown to pieces, and Mouette's condi
tion was pitiable In the extreme.
A third man, named Girard, who
had a marvelous escape, explained i
that Martin, who had always been In
terested in explosives, believed he had
Invented a new kind of bomb. He

FORM Fit PRINCE IS TO
LEAD PERSIAN REVOLT
St. Petersburg. A deplorable im
prcssion has been caused here by the j
news that Marab Mizra. lately an of- j
fleer In the Russian service, has rais
ed the standard of revolt ngalnst the I
Persian government and Is recruit- j
ins an army for the deposed Shah, i
According to official information the
rebel Persian prince retained hisj
Persian nationality while serving -in j
the Russian army. This fact dimin
ishes the moral responsibility of Rus- j
sia ror nis loyai nonavior and at
tho same time raises a nice question
as to who should undertake his cap
ture and punishment.
Xarab Mirza commanded a sotnin
of the T.tbinsky regiment. which
forms part of the Kazvin detachment.
A month ago he applied for leave,
which was granted. Shortly after his
departure from Kazwin n letter was
receive, 1 from him in which he re
signed his commission, but the motive
of his resignation was unkonwn to
the authorities until a few days ago,
when it was learned that he was rais
ing a force at Zinjan, neor Kazvin.
on the Tabriz-Teheran road, with the
above-mentioned purpose, and his
name was immediately struck off the
Biissian army list.
STATUE M NI MIGHT
EVEN INCLUDE MORGAN
Pnrls. A perfect epidemic of what
might be called statue mania has
broken nut In France. Formerly stat
ue's were erected to our Illustrious
dend. but now we erect statues to
everybody.
For Instance. Mistral, the poet of'
Province. Is still bale and hearty, yet
his statue has been set In the public',
square at Aries.
Now there is o movement on foot
nt Alx-les-Balns to erect at statue to
Its patron. J. Plerpont Mnrean. One
day the great financier discovered
that the mnln thoroughfado was not
wide enough to permit his automobile
and n pedestrlnn to pass at the same
time. He Immediately gnve a check
to have the street widened. Now as
many ns two pedestrians and Mr.
Morgan's automobile can easily pass.
The grateful Inhabitants have nam
ed a boulevard after Mr. Morgan and
they want to erect a statue to him as
well. Ton perceive they are not lack
ing In gratitude. The Empress Eu
genie made Trouvllle, Mrs. Hughes
made Pinard. nnd certainly Mr. Mor
gan mav be snld to have made Alx.
We have statues of Washington and
Franklin nnd Horace Wells, the den
tist. Why not Alx have a statue of
.1. Plerpont Morgan?
Automoblllsts are traveling the
