LYTLE IN TILLAMOOK ASKS RIGHT-OF-WAY From Tillamook to Buaton.-Peeple There Enthuslstlo--Commit-too Pwt to Work at Oneo. The Tillamook Headlight says of the meeting held at Tillamook City last week Wednesday evening to consider the matter of extending the Pacific Railway & Navigation Co.' line, which is now completed from Ihllsboro to Buxton. Ac companying resident t,yue were C. E. Lytic and Dr, J. P. Tamiesie of this city and Mr. Moore, of the Oreson Savines and Trust Co.. of Portland Th cri-ntlemen return- d last Saturday and report that the citizens of Tillamook are thoroueh- ly in earnest and decided at a pub- ic meeting held Thursday night to secure the right-of-way asked for. They are tired of being "bottled up." and believe the proposition made bv President Lvtle to be the best offered. The sense of the ' . rrrl Mr TiiWi marine mnr direct to Portland and a shorter route than bv Astoria. The Head- igbt says: Mr. E. E. Lytle, president of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Co., who is building the railroad from Iillsboro, came in on Wednesday to see how the surveying parties were getting along and to go over a part ot the route, and also to make a pro position to the people of Tillamook county. A meeting for that purpose was held at the rooms of the Tilla mook Development League, a good umber of business men being pre sent. Mr. Lytle stated his proposi tion, which was to the effect that it the nnnl wntihl truarantre him free , a I TillamooV Citv. iroinir north, to Buxton . in Washington county, with free terminal erounds at Tilla- mook City and Bay City, he would commence the construction of the road at Tillamook City next year and would build 15 miles in 1907 and by December 31, 1908, he would have the entire road constructed and in operation. , The sense of the meeting was de- cidedly in favor of Mr. Ly tie's road on account of the shorter distance to I'ortland, and although those pres- ent promised to do everything po- sible to procure the rights ot way, it was not thought advisable tor a limited number to guarantee the rights of way that evening, so it was decided to send out numerous committees on Friday tor the pur- pose of getting everybody interested with a promise that they would do their part, for if Mr. Lytle does not get a tree right of way he may not build into this county for some time. Another meeting is called for Fri day evening and it depends upon what amount of success the commit tees meet with whether Mr. Lytle will be guaranteed a free right of way, tor that is something which everybody ought to help in some way or other to secure. It was stated at the meeting that Mr. W. S. Cone had promised terminal 1 . T... -:...

About the middle of May the body was removed to the home of his parents. On Sep tember 4 Harvey came to lite and the next day married Miss Lilly Godfrey, of Denver. They left at once on a wedding tour. Pants are made for men and not for women. Women were made for man and not for pants.

From the reports received from the three parties of surveyors and engineers fa the field for the United Railways company the officials of that comply expect to reduce the trackage ot the suburban routes from HilUboro and Forest Grove to Portland by five miles. This reduc tion is exj--u to be obtained by the lowering of grades, straightening of curvatures and cutting superflu ous track projected by the surveys made before the purchase by the Loss interests. C. E. Loss arrived in Portland last week and stated that the work ot financing the road was meeting with great success and that the engi neer's reports would be complete to be shown to the investors in about three or tonr months. "We have three surveying parties out," he said, "and lrotn each one we have received reports stating that a great saving in trackage can be secured by the changes. These men are miking exact profiles and when they have finished we will have a detailed report ot the condi tions existing along the lines. One of the parties is working along the Tillamook extension. The others are out Forest Grove and Ilillsboro way. "There will be no shortening of tracks in Portland, but the cutting down of tie distance between Port land and Forest Grove and Ilills boro will prove a great benefit to residents oat there.

There is this much attached to the question: Mr. Wheeler, who was present stated that he thought the holders of large timber interests on the line of the road would do the square thing and that as far as he was concerned he wanted to see the railroad construct ed as did several others who have timber along the line. Anyhow, we think it will reflect to the timber owners credit to do everything they can to encourage the railroads build ing into Tillamok. We will wait and see. Tillamook Herald.

PICNIC 'SH0E RAILROAD WRECKI IN OKLAHOMA TRAIN RUNS OFF A BRIDGE Into Swollen RIvsr-.Enalno and Car Sinks Out of Slght-.Many Llvoa Reported Lost. Guthrie, Okla., Sept. t8. Eight people are dead, twenty more or less injured, and as many more are missing in the most disastrous wreck in the recent history of the Rock Is land, which occurred three miles trout Dover, Okla.. at 8:30 this morning. The engine, tender, baggage aud mail cars, smoker aud day coach of passenger train No. is, northbound, lett the high bridge that spans the Cimarron river, and plunged into the current flanked by treacherous quicksands. The locomotive dis appeared flora sight almost immed iately. The mail and baggage clerks escaped from their coaches and swam to the shore. The accident was due to the de fective condition of the bridge, which was swerved out of line by the pressure of driftwood carried down by the swoolen stream. The train was an hour late and was run ning at high speed to make up time. The engineer did not see the condition of the bridge until he was within a few yards, when it was too late to stop. He shouted to his fireman, threw on the brakes and jumped. He landed on the very verge of the riverbank and escaped unhurt. The fireman was less for tunate, sustaining severe injuries. When the engine struck the bridge the whole structure sudden ly collapsed, precipitating the engine and coaches into the water. The chair-car and two heavy Pullmans were not pulled in, but remained on the Irack. A later dispatch says: While it is believed that several lives were lost today when two cars of Rock Island train No. 12, northbound, went into the Cimarron river at Dover, Okla., because of the collapse of a bridge, no body has been recov ered aud the only person on the train positively known to have per ished is Hank Littlefield, an em ploye of the Forepaugh Sells circus, who was drowned.

The old Reliable Comer The Fortland Telegram says that Attorney W. D. Fenton, of the Southern Pacific, has confirmed the news that the Harrimaa interests are busily engaged in selecting a route from Beaverton or vicinity, to Oswego, or nearby, to bridge the Willamette and afford the West Side and Yamhill divisions entrance to the terminals. His statement was made before the council committee on judiciary. As previously outlined, the South ern Pacific expects to route all freight over the bridge, but will retain the Fourth-street line and operate it with electricity. The new line will leave the West Side division at a point between Beaverton and New ton, and will follow the Tualatin for some distance. It is hoped to get a better grade on the new route. This will remove the objectionable heavy trains from F'ourth street, and the railroad company will es cape the necessity of cutting its trains into one, two or three cars each and climbine a d-per-cent grade. Trains may be run to For est Grove by way of Fourth street every half hour, and they will car ry local frieght. The changes will probably cost $3,000,000. Moat People Thought 80. After withstanding for an entire night the rack and thumb screws ot the "sweat box," resorted to iu a vain endeavor to extort from him a confession ot his own guilt, C. S. Van Auker. cashier of the State Bank of Rainier, yesterday after noon circumvented his own arrest on a charge of embezzlement by agreeing to make good the amount lost by that institution in an alleged hold-up 17 days ago. He was given 24 hours to raise the money and was released lor that purpose, though remaining in cus tody of Sherriff Martin White, of Columbia county, and virtually the latter' s prisoner. The sweat-box eplaode occured in this city aud Van Auker is still in Portland. The steps which resulted, in all but one name, in the atrest of Van Auker for robbing the bank in which he claims two bandits overpowered and robbed him last Labor day, September 3. were taken by the National Surety Company, of New York, which furnished the $10,000 turety bond under which Van Auk er began work in the Rainier Bank when it opened for business nine months ago. Persistent rumors that Van Auker had lost large sums at the gambling table since taking charge of the bank were primarily responsible for the surety company's move. i'ortland Oregoniau. P. F.
