RAIL APPLICATION IS MADE 150 Miles to Be Built From Bend to Klamath Falls. Washington, D. C. Another step to ward the construction of approximate ly 150 miles of railroad in central Oregon was taken Tuesday when ap plication was filed by the Oregon Trunk railway with the interstate commerce commission for the requir ed authorization. A single line is to be constructed from the present terminus of the Ore gon Trunk railway at Bend to Skoo kum, formerly known as Odell, on the Southern Pacific railway's Eugene EClamath Falls line. This line will be G5 miles long. At Skookum the road will branch off along one of two possible routes to Klamath Fall. One route would cross the Southern Pa cific at Skookum and parallel the lat ter line to a point north of upper Klamath lake. Instead of taking the course of the Southern Pacific to the east of upper Klamath lake that line would run along the west bank of the lake, entering Klamath Falls from a slightly northwestern direction. The other branch from Skookum would take a southeasterly direction to the Sycan river and cross the Sprague river at a point several miles east of he town of Sprague Biver. That route would continue south from the Sprague river to Bonanza and then would turn due west to Klamath Falls, touching the town of Olene. For a short distance in the vicinity of Heatty, Or., and Sprague River the eastern branch would parallel the pro posed line of the Oregon-California & Eastern railway, which has been pro jected by R. E. Strahorn. The length of the western branch from Skookum to Klamath Falls would be 82 miles and the eastern line slightly more than 100 miles. When completed the distance over the Ore gon Trunk railway from Fallbridge, Wash., whore It leaves the parent road, the Spokane, Portland & Seattle, to Klamah Falls over the route to the west of upper Klamath lake would be approximately 295 miles. Grain Price Laid to Speculation. Washington, D. C The recent col lapse in grain prices after the ad vance of last fall and winter, in the opinion of (i. E.

Chile has submitted an estimate of (30,000 for J the expenses of its delegation. Washington, D. C. Washington's new code of traffic regulations, a composite of the best methods adopt ed by other cities throughout the country, went into effect Sunday. The new rules, which are built around the idea of tho greatest speed possible commensurate with the greatest safe ty, are expected to serve as a model for the rest of the country. To facilitate the movement of traf fic, the speed limit has been raised from 18 to 22 miles an hour. Through streets are to be designated and plain ly marked on which greater speeds will be permitted, running up as high as 35 miles an hour on certain arter ial thoroughfares leading to trunk highways in the outlying sections. No speed is specified for motorists crossing intersections or rounding curves, the rate being left to the judg ment of the driver, depending upon conditions of traffic. The rules do not mean that a motorist may travel at a 22-mile speed anywhere. This may be cut down as low as 12 miles an hour in the business section.' The heedless driver is curbed by the fol lowing general new law, which will be enforced in the discretion o the arresting officer and the judge: No individual shall operate a mo tor vehicle over any public highway in the district: "1 Recklessly. "2 At a rate of speed greater than Is reasonable and proper, having re guard to the with of the highway, the use thereof and tho traffi thereon. "3 So as to endanger any property or Individual. "4 So as to damage unnecessarily or unreasonably the public highway." Pedestrians will have the right of way at all intersections and vehicles the right of way between intersec tions. Left turns are forbidden at some intersections and all turns at oile rs. A semaphoro system is to be installed calling for three traffic movements. A red light will mean stop, a green light will permit through traffic to proceod and a yel low light will permit vehicles to make turns either right or left. No turn lag traffic may move with the green light and no through traffic with tho yellow. Pedestrians may cross only with the red light. In making left turns all caj-s will pass to tho near side of the traffic policeman or stand instead of making n full sweep, so there will be no interference between northbound curs turning west and southbuond cars turning east. At intersections whore there are no semaphores a pedestrian may gain the right of way by simply holding up his urm and his authority must be obeyed the same as If a traffic of ficers were stationed there. A plan is also under advisement for having hand semaphores to bo operated by pedestrians waiting for streetcars. By this means they can signal cars to stop without leaving the sidewalk until the Itreet OU slows to a Btop. Automobiles ure now required to stop only eight feet to the rear of a stand ing streetcar instead of 15 feet. in streets where there are street cur loading piatforma, automobiles may puss u streetcar, whether mov ing or standing. Standards with clear danger signals are to replace the ob solete oil burning lanterns now used on some of these plut forms. Women Form New Union. Washington. D. C.

A William Hubbard, born In Ips wich, England, in 1604, was the pro genitor of many of the Americans of the name. Apparently he was a Purl tan.
