Cook Fired from the Reform
School Says Vice Condi
tions Are Similar to Those
in Portland
Declaring that evils similar to those
Involved In the Portland vice scandal
exist among the boys of the state
training school with the additional
charge that these evils are practiced
with animals, J. W. Saunders, a cook
who has been employed at the Insti
tution but who was last night dis
charged by Superintendent Hale made
statements to a state official and
to reporters tills morning. No officials
or employes of the school are Impli
cated In the charges made by Saun
ders. Saunders is the man who wrote the
letter to a certain member of the state
board calling attention to alleged lack
of dlsedplihe at tho training school
which was one of the reasons for the
calling of the preliminary Investiga
tion of Superintendent Hale on Mon
day. Saunders will be called before
official Investigation Friday and will
be asked to prove his assertions. He
says that he will be glad to appear.
He asserts that he wrote the letter to
tho Btate board member because of the
general lock of management In the
Institution. Other than this he has
nothing against the character of Su
perlntendent Halo except what has
grown on' of his discharge by that
official lasi night. Saunders said Halo . bal1 ot A'hert Hendricks accused 'if
had discharged him last night when ' assaulting two young girls, and who
he had admitted writing tho trouble- j later fled t,le c'ty tn8 executive corn
some letter. nilttee of the Oceanside Womens club
"Halo came to me," said Saunders. ) liere todft5r Issued an Invitation to all
"and said It was a mighty unprlncl-1 w omen's organizations to Bond rcpre
pled man who would write such a lot-1 sentatlves to a mass meeting sched
ter and not sign his name to It. He got . ''' for next Tuesdny. At that time
so personal about it that I said:
"I am the man who wrote that let-
tier."
Saunders declares that when tho at-
tentlon of the superintendent was call-
ed to the vices existing among the
boys he refused to believe them or to '
give them consideration. The matter
of the moral conditions of the school
wore not booked to be Investigated
Friday. Superintendent Hale had boen
charged with purchasing cattle with
out proper authority nnd with main
taining lax discipline. Governor West
says that the blame, If blame there Is,
tor tho purchaso of the cattle rests
upon his own shoulders. The execu
tive also defends tho policy of disci
pline Inaugurated by Superintendent
Hale.
Snys He Wrote LoMrr.
That Saunders wrote the original
letter to tho state board member waB
not mado known until this morning.
This letter was shown to another
member of the board, the substance of
the letter reachor the press, and bas
ed on the charges published the In
vestigation has been called.
It seems probable that Saunders will
have extreme difficulty In making good of AngeloB occlirrod t0(1 cation of them Is granted, that com

Seattle, Wash. Jan. 8. A general

was cilled today. All union men, num
bering 300, have already walked out,
and many non-union men are expected
to Join In the strike.
The right of the men to organize Is
the chief Issue between the strikers
and the company. A uniform wage
scale to apply In all these cities Is an
other demand.
'"The strike was called as a last re
sort," said John Morganthalor, vice
president of the Pacific district coun-

Workers, "rather than submit to re
linquishment of labor's Inalienable
right to organize."

For the seventh time the citizens of

ative to the petition for a bridge across
the Santlam river near Strlngtown.

Bouth end of tho county have been
seeking aid from tho court In establish
ing n brldgo between tho respective
towns ncroBS the wicked little Santlam,
but nothing has been accomplished bo
far notwithstanding the diligent work
on tho pnrt of the various delegations.
The court decided lust night that
$10,000 was too much money to expend
for a bridge nt the ponlt in ques
tion and that the number of settlers Is
not largo enough to warrant such an
expenditure at this time. It Is believed
by the court that a Btnel brldgo will
lie necessary, if any bridge Is to bo
constructed at r.ll, and Marlon county's
share of tho expenso will bo in tho
neighborhood of $10,000, whllo Linn
oaunty will possibly bo required to
expend in tho neighborhood of $30,000.

UNITED I'llEHS LEASED WIRE.
Tioga Point, Wash., Jan. 8. "Most
of the men were In their berths when
t he crash came," declared Quartermas
ter Fred Peters, survivor of tho Rose
crans, who drifted to this place from
tho scene ot tho wreck on a plank, a
distance of seven miles. "First we
j coiuu near mo man at tne wheel shout
that ho mistook the North Head light
for the lihgtship, and had probably ran
tho boat on the rocks
I "As soon as the Rosecrnns Btruck
sho listed heavily to seaward, exposing
her decks to tho full force of the storm
and making it easy for tho breakers
to comb her over from end to end. I
groped my way through tho darkness
in nn effort to gain the deck, but had
no sooner gotten to tho top of the
coiiipaiilonway than a breaker picked
mo up like a feather and carried me
clear to tho opposlto side of the vessel,
which, because ot her Hat, was high In
the air.
"I remember being struck by a plank
a moment after being washed off the
boat, and I grabbed this tightly. Then
I lost consrloiisncHS, and did not come
to again until I felt my feet on the
sands after being washed ashore here.
I "It was awful the way the boys
fought nnd scrambled to get freo of
that Inky black bunk cabin. I could
seo a few of them trying to drag them
selves up the compnnlonway with a
dozen others pulling them back beforo
the big wave that bore me away choked
the vessel with water from stem to
stern.
"I am sure the majority of the men
never lived to reach tho deck, and the
three who were taken from the rigging
must have been on tho hurricane deck
when the crash came. Tho boys did
not shout or scream much. There was
too much water choking them, nnd they
were fighting too hard to get on deck.

ABtorla, Ore., Jan. 8. At daylight to
day It was determined that but threo
survivors remain of tho 33 crew mem
bers on tho Ill-fated oil steamer Rose
crnns. Captain Patterson, official pilot
for tho Associated Oil company, to
which concern tho RoBecrnns belonged,
stated early that eight bodies had been
washed ashore, Including that ot Cap
tain Johnson.
Fred Potorfl, quartermaster, who
drifted on a plank to Tioga Point,
seven miles distant from tho wreck,
after being thrown from the Rose
crans' deck by a comber, wns tho first
survivor aBhore.
The Point Adams llfesavlng crew
landed shortly before daybreak with
tho threo men who clung to tho rlg
g Ing, but one of these died In the lKo
boat. The names of thoso on the lifeboat
have not yet been learned. Peters was
near death from cxposnro when picked
up nt Tioga, and bo was ritBhed to the
home of a friends there
On account of storms having played
havoc with the telephone and tele
graph wires, the reports reaching here
from the North Head wealer station
and Capo Disappointment and Cape
Adams, the three points nearest tho
wreck, are extremely fragmentary. It
Is expected that at least a dozen more
men will be washed ashore liefoie the
