TBKTUAIN WRICKBK't TItlAb. j The case of Herbert and Fred Rolls and W A Hill charged olth wrecking the S P train la.it Sunday evening near this city, came up for preliminary examination in Justice I lumphrev's court this nfternoon( the accused being represented by Judge Whitney, and the State appearing by 11 II Hewitt, District Attorney and Mr North, rup, of Portland. The defendants waived examination and asked the court to make an order that they be admitted to bail. The court refus- ed o allow the defendants to waive ex amination staling that il the parlies were guilty they should be In jail and if not they should be allowed llu'ir liberty. Dr W II Din i was called and testified as to the Jcfendan'.'s calling on him fur professional service Sunday. Next saw Hill Monday mot nip,.', w ho had a lame wrist and wanlci treatment. The Dr's testimony was substantially us heretofore published. Mr DeClark testified that he was on the tram when it was wrecked. lack Miller was badly burned and died next day. He examined the switch afler the accident The pin was out and nut removed. Search has been made and the pin has not been found. The snitch was locked after the accident. Removing the pin would not affect the switch except astoone rail. The result of removing pin w ould be the wreck that occurred. Thos Froman ttsti.ied, am acquainted with defendants. Have been in fosters and my employ for ten days. Left my place Sunday at 3 o'clock to go to town. Had conversation with Hill Wednesday morning about wreck. 11111 loin me mar there was a man in my employ who caus ed the wreck. Hill said they took the pin out and removed the rod and put a stone between the rails. He and Fred Rolf went on and told Herbert to come on. Herbert came on and said he had a pin of tht S P. They told him to throw the pin away which he did. Hill's arm was not hurt when he left mv olace Sunjay. Fred told me he krew nothing about the wreck. Hill said it was Bert that removed the pin. Hill said that'thev asked to ride on the Leb- non train but they w ere not allowed to do Eastern Oregon Crops. John S Nin son, of Nolin, wis in Pendleton to-day. He thinks the crop average in that section will be about ten bushels to the acre, which is rather disappointing' considering the prospect offered in the spring for a large yield. Some farmers, banking on this rosy-hued promise, presumed too much upon their credit, and now find them selves in a sea of debt when ther expected to bo landed high ard dry on shore by good crops and Driccs renaicton a National Banks The report of the Eugene National Bank shows $77,406 77 loans and discounts, specie, $33,392.35. Deposits $64,601.30, the totals being $137,. 687.88. No National Bank in the North west In a place of the size of Albany makes such a heaitnr snowing as tne first tional Bank of this city, whose deposits are about $175,000, and loans and discounts, $154,306.63. First Valley Melons. Mr William Peacock handed the Democrat office to day the first Valley water me nr.s brought to the market. Though small they are of a good quality. Mr Peacock is nearly al ways first to the city with thi fruit, ar.d has the Democrat's thanks for the remembrance. v Will Come Her k. 4. gent'emnn just in from Crook county says that The Dalles will get very little if any of the wool trade from that country next year, as there is a very good wagon road leading to the Wll lamette Valley and wool there commsds a much better Drice than east of the moun tains. The prosnect of the wool tiade of The Dnilts in the future Is not a cheering one. imes Mountatnetr. An Accident, This forenoon whl.e hewing timbers on the street railway line the ada of Jos. Recce slipped a id struck one of his legs just above the ankle, cutting into the bone, severing a muscle and vein, firs Muslon and Wallace attended him and dressed the wound.

He was uneasv and restless all night. Did not know his arm was hurt until we went to work next morning. Don't think I heard any of the boys say anything about the wreck. Had worked for Froman and Foster 8 days. Hill did not complain of his arm when he returned from Albany. Leb anon engine passed 15 or 20 minutes be fore the boys returned. Froman's house is two and a half miles from tht wreck. 1) B Monteith testified that he Is not ac- aualnted with defts. Told Hill to tell me all about the matter. Tell the truth. Fred told me he knew nothing about the cause of the wreck. I arrested Hill. He (aid he hated to elve the boys away. Th younger Rolf talked something about breaking the lock oi the switch. H took the pin out and removed the rod. Hill said he hurt his arm by rolling on it. Talked with young Rolf but he denied everything. Hewitt, Hoffman, Burkhart and I went to the jail and talked with Rolf. Rolf said Hill took the key or pin about half out and he.Rolf, taok it and cameo 11 on up me iraca. C G Burkhart testified that he arrested Herbert Told him what the arrest was for. Herbert sa'd he knew nothing about the wreck. Said they stopped and cracK ed hazel nuts on the switch. Talked wjtl' him last evening. Said he htd nothing to do with the wreck. After isminutcs tai Monteith told him that Ins statement an the other defts. did not agree. Herbert then told all about it. Hill looked at the lock and said thev could not break it. Hill took tlif, nin nail v out. lie. uerucri.lo-SK il um anil carried it and threw it away.

Pendleton E O. SUNDAY REST. Rev. Wi bur F. Crafts, Field Secretary of the American Sabbath I'nion spoke last evening at the VI . C T. L'. Hsll in part as follows : "We are pushing a petition against Sunday mails, agMnst Sunday i.rk In the military service of the gov ernment, in interstate commerce and In the District of Columbia and the Terrltor- ies In short, a petition which asks Con ress to supplement the laws of the States in this matter by civlne Similar rest to all ho are under the jursliliction of the gen- eral government.

And I say to vou what I did not say to them, that the church that as founded by a carpenter ougnt never to be out of sympithy with the true inter ests of worklngmen. THE FOES OK THE PF.l ITIOX are a motley army. In the second line stand the liquor dealers, side by side with infidels, proprietors of Sunday newspapers and the Jews. In the front rank, strange to sa v. are two christian sects, wtio are most activeof all in opposition the Sev enth Day Baptists and the Seventh Day Adventists.
