DYNAMITE S T O P S PHONES.
Heavy Explosion Jars Business Part
of Chicago.
Chicago, June 29.— An explosion
supposed to have been caused by dyna
mite did great damage in the business
district tonight, injured two or thr
persons severely, and wrecked stores
and windows for a block near Clark
and Washington streets.
The exact nature o f the explosion is
unknown, because o f the great amount
of debris thrown about the alley where
it occurred. The police think it an
other in the series o f gamblers’ war
bombs that have mystified detectives
for more than two years.
The scene o f the explosion was
an alley in the rear o f the central tele
phone exchange.
The Chicago Tele
phone company was unable to do any
more business during the night. Two
restaurants facing on Clark street
were blown practically into the streets,
food being scattered over the
tracks.
In this alley also was the rear en
trance to Powers & Lambert’ s saloon
headquarters for Martin B. Madden
and his associates in the building
trades. Madden and his men are figur
ing largely in labor disputes at pres
ent, and have been the subject of grand
jury indictments.
Another place opening into the alley
which was badly damaged, was the
cash register store o f Mont Tenness,
who is alleged to conduct several gamb
ling places. Tenness’ place has been
raided frequently by the police.
An
other bomb was exploded there a year
ago.

Vienna, June 25. Owing to the de
cisive intervention o f the imperial gov
ernment, the Standard Oil company’s
plans fur gaining control o f the Gali
cian petroleum industry have suffered
a final and crushing defeat. The Aus
trians have withdrawn the contract
v u the company, which would have

many years.
The minister o f finance has under
taken to build reservoirs and lease
them to oil men at rents much less
than those demanded by the Standard
Oil company. Moreover, home refiners
will escape the handicap o f heavy re
bates cn the price o f the raw product

The government expresses a hope
that competition will be sharpened

BIDS GALLED FOR
ON NATRON ROAD
Hdrrimdn to Build 60 Miles of New
Line at Once.
Oregon Eastern When Completed Will
Be Main Line o f Southern Pacific
— Start From Both Ends and Bal
ance o f Line Wdl Be Finished in
Near Future.
Portland, June 26.— Bids for the con
struction o f 59.48 miles o f the Oregon
Eastern railroad, projected from Na
t-on to Klamath Falls, will be received
in th« Southern Pacific offices at San
Francisco during the next two weeks.
O f that mileage, 34.24 miles will be
constructed southeasterly from Natron,
while the remaining 25.24 miles will
be built in a northwesterly direction
from Klamath Falls.
Bids for the construction o f the Kla
math Falls end o f the extension must
be submitted on or before June 39.
Contractors, however, are allowed until
July 19 to submit proposals for build
ing the 34 miles o f the track from Na
tron, the present northern terminus of
the projected road.
Local Harriman
officials will make no estimate o f the
probable cost o f building the two sec
tions o f this railroad, but it is believe!
the improvement will involve an e x
penditure o f approximately $2,225,990,
The two extensions, aggregating
about 60 miles, for which bids have
been asked, cover about one-third o f
the length o f the proposed road, which,
according to the approved survey, will
be 198.6 miles in length from Klamath
Falls to Natron.
The action o f Harriman in calling
for bids for extending this road by be
ginning work simultaneously at Na
tron and Klamath Falls is accepted as
conclusive evidence o f his determina
tion to complete its construction.
It
is figured that to build the 69 miles of
track for which bids have been invited
will practically exhauBt the appropria
tion that has been made for this road
for the ensuing year.
For that reason
additional appropriations for further
extensions are looked for next year.
There can be no question o f the ulti
mate purpose o f Harriman to complete
this road between Natron and Klamath
Falls. Completion o f the extensions
for which proposals have been asked
cannot in themselves add materially to
the value o f the property. By extend
ing the road 25 miles northerly from
Klamath Falls, the northern terminus
of the southern extension would reach
only into the heart o f Klamath county.
The construction o f an additional 35
miles southerly from Natron would
terminate the road from this end in a
mountainous and sparsly settled dis
trict.
For these reasons it is patent from a
practical business consideration that
the Harriman interests will complete
the road as soon as possible and place
the investment on a revenue-earning
basis. The primary purpose in project
ing this road was to provide for the
Southern Pacific a better grade for
crossing the state and thereby avoid
the more difficult passage now followed
over the Siskiyou mountains.
When
completed, the Oregon Eastern un
doubtedly will become the main line for
the Southern Pacific between Portland
and San Francisco.

Planters Propose Drastic Measures to
Prevent Repeated Strikes.
Honolulu, June 28.— The work of
getting a jury to try five o f the Jap
anese strike leaders charged with con
spiracy in connection with the strike
o f laborers on the sugar plantations be
gan today.
Sevctal o f the leaders stated today
the strike would be resumed on the
Ewa and Waialua plantations July 1,
when they would again call out 8,000
Japanese who have returned to work.
They declare! that all the Japanese in
the islands are affiliated in one large
organization.
Representatives o f ¡the planters de
clare that, if the threatened plan o f
intermittent strikes on alternate plan
tations, enabling those working to sup
port the large number on strike, is car
ried out, the strikers will be ordered
off the plantations. This would mean
that the Japanese would have to va
cate the homes furnished by the plant
ers and would be homeless.
The Japanese training squadron is
expected here tomorrow.
The Planters’ association has receiv
ed from its agents at Washington, D.
C.. encouraging reports regarding a
plan to import efficient labor from
Europe through immigration channels.
Sugar planters here resent the state
ments of a number o f Spaniards who
departed from the islands some time
since and are reported stranded in San
Francisco, where they complained of
unfair treatment.
The planters de
clare that the men were given housi s,
lands, wages and other perquisites
usually granted to plantation laborers,
and that they left against the advice
o f the Spanish consul to go to Mexico,
lured by false promises.
