Wood worth, trafllo manager of the Northern 1'aclflc, In the l'ot Intelligencer, will say to morrow that the' railroad tried to agree with tli lumbermen, but thev did not eminent to any revision of the tariff but insisted upon the 40 cent rate to the Missouri river. Wkiodworth says the facts have been grossly misrepresented to the public. He declares the lumbermen have circu lated a statement that In 1W0 they paid the Northern racillo $28,000,000 on 3,500,000 ton of lumber and that their payments exceeded the operating ex pense of the road by W.000,000 for the year endlnir Juno 30, MOO. In reality, he says, they paid the road 18,058,500 for 1,117,700 ton which I 13.18 per cent of the total earning and less than 25 per cent of the total operating ex- IH.ti.ps, although representing 33.05 per cent of the total ton miles. J lie ton in I In rate on lumber, he says, was less than one-half ton-mile rate charged on all other business. Thee things devel oned at the Interstate commerce com mission hearing. Woodworth says It bas been the roed's practice to make rates according to commercial conditions without much regard to poible com parison with other rates. STATE'S RIGHTS.

OFFICER IN TROUBLE. NEW! ELECTRIC DEVICE. DENVER, Jan. 13 Timothy Maloney, a resident of this city, propelled a car at the rate of 35 miles an hour, and claims that H could have attained- twice that speed. The parallel rails between the tracks supplies the current. At In tervals of about half the length of a car there 1 a cut off or break In the rails, which takes the current Into a box at the side of the track and leaves the rails over which the coach just passed "dead."

Much enthusiasm prevailed, and the meeting was a most successful one, and waa enlivened by several spirited speeches bv representative men. who urged the immediate organization of the club, as it will fill a long felt want in this city for a place of clean healthy amusement for the rising generation as well, as for the grown ups. The list at present has 93 names as charter mem bers, and a special effort is being made to increase that number to 100 before the next meeting which will be held at the room engaged for the gymnasium, tomorrow night at 8 o'clock.

AFTER FORTY LONG YEARS. BOND HE BROUGH TOP Tillman Asks Some Per tinent Questions. CORRESPONDENCE READ Question Asked Why Panama Bonds Were Sold at 102 1-2 When'J1041-2WasBid. j frstaeaesMW BANKERS GIVEN PREFERENCE CHICAGO. Jan. 13. After having been divorced fop 40 years, an accidental meeting brought Mr. and Mrs. Benjan- jClay, of Georgia, asked whether the Private Citizens Bid 104 on Panama Bonds in Blocks of tioooo Worth Bat the Bonds Are Allotted to Bankers at 102I Explanation is Demanded. WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. After a short discussion in the Senate the recent bond issue of the treasury department it was agreed before taking up the question in detail to await the report from the secretary of the treasury which Senator Aldrich assured the senator would be before- them .on Thursday. an awful Stampi'de, the coal Oil lamps Used as footlights were over- min Ackley, the latter for some years secretary oe requirea to mat a P re. The lamps which were used to light eacner -ZZZl turned, jetting the place on fire. The lampi the opera house also exploded, throwing blazing oil over the terror stricken people who were frantically fighting to gain the exits. In the mad rush a section of the floor gave way, precipitating scores of persons to the basement. The flames fed by the oil shot almost up to the ceiling and there was a wild rush of 700 persons to escape from the building. Scores of women and children were trampled and several who escaped being burned to death, died after being dragged from the opera house. In many eases, it is said, entire families have been wiped out. The scene which followed the explosion is indescribable. Scores of persons who were in the balcony at the time the explosion occurred, jumped from windows and sustained fractured limbs and skulls. To add to the terrible disaster the fire apparatus became disabled and the struc ture was left to the mercy of the flames. It is almost certain that not a vestige of the bodies of the unfortunates overcome by the smoke and who perished will ever be found. Assistance was asked from Pottstown, but just before the fire apparatus from that place reached here the entire structure was a roaring furnace. Had the women and children heeded the warning of cooler heads in the afdience the terrible loss of life might have been averted, but there was the usual panic and stam pede which invariably follows such a catastrophe. Special trains carry ing nurses and doctors were rushed to this place from both Pottstown and Reading. Every home within a radius of half a dozen blocks of the opera house was made a temporary hospital where the wounded were hurried. Boyerstown is a borough with a population of about 2500, and is located about midway between Pottstown and Reading. At 1 o'clock a special from Reading arrived with physicians and nurses but there was little to do as the injured had been cared for by the local physicians. A few minutes after midnight the rear wall collapsed. Tho flames broke out anew and those who vainly hoped to find the remains of loved ones turned away in despair from the scene. Three children ranging from eight to twelve and one woman who were dragged from the building by persons who had rushed to, the rescue were trampled almost to a pulp. The skulls of children were crushed like egg shells. Tho fire was under control at 1 o'clock, but it is impos sible to attempt a search before tomorrow. It is doubtful if the remains of tho victims can be distinguished. TO RELEASE MEN IN TWO WEEKS. ELY, Nev., Jan. 13. The rescuers In the Alpha shaft reached solid ground to day. Foreman Gallagher expects to re loase the men in about two weeks. DRANK CARBOLIC ACID. Supposed it to be Throat Medicine Died From the Effects. OAKLAND, Cal., Jan. 13.

The American ship Sintrim which arrived yesterday from Sydney, Aus., brings with her a story of mutiny ori the whaling bark Andrew Hicks. On the Sintrim is Frank Ballinger, who was steward on the' whaler and was put ashore because of sickness at Norfolk Island, where the Sintrim picked him up. Ballinger states that the crew of the Andrew Hicks became mutinous just before Norfolk Island was reached and threatened to take charge of the vessel, They were held' in check until arrival at the island, when the captain throw the whole crew In irons, and set out to communicate with the British and Am erican consuls. At the end of four days he returned and found the men pacific after their confinement and ready to promise obedience. again, and now they are enjoying their second honeymoon. Last week Mrs. Ackley visited Min neapolis and met her former affinity by accident. She addressed a letter to him at his hotel which brought about a meet ing and reconciliation.

Rabbi Dernhard Felsenthal, said to bo the oldest Jewish theologian in the United States, recogn ized as one of the world's greatest He brew schoolars, died last night after ten days illness. He was 80 years old. that he believed he was so required, but there was no provision of law stipulat ing how the report should be made. Culberson insisted that the duty of the secretary under the law was to make such a statement on or before January. 1, for the preceding year, con cerning the deposits of public money, lie said he had not seen such a state ment. Tillman referred to the two solu tions by him which had remained on the calender since December 9, calling for in formation concerning clearing-house cer tificates, and bond issues, and said he thought it best to let them go to the committee on finance without attempt- ing to pass them without reference to that committee. He said he wished to lay some correspondence on this sub ject before the committee and read a letter from a private individual who had bid 104 for $10,000 Panama canal bonds and had not been awarded them although, they sold for 102. Tillman wanted to know how it happened that bonds had been sold to banks to lower the price, and denied to citizens, who bid higher for them. He also read a letter" from a correspondent in Augusta, Ga., who wanted to know how it happened that the secretary places the vast currency in the New York banks to relieve the financial stringency. "This stringency seems to be a source of profit to some one," Tillman's corres pondent added. The Senate passed Tillmans resolution calling on the interstate commerce com mission for information concerning pur chases by railroad companies of stocks of competing roads. Unfinished business In the form of a bill to codify the crimi nal laws of the United States was placed before the Senate and the reading be gun when the Senate adjourned. LONG DISTANCE WIRELESS.

PORTLAND'S "BIG STICK." Portland's "big stick", the Port of Co lumbia bill, is being waved with fierce ardor just now, by the Oregonian, as a prelude to its formal introduction to the people of the river district, via the "in rtiative" m June. Every day or so there ia a savage growl from the big daily on the score of the shabby treatment this darling of the metropolitan shippers re ceived at the hands of (6e courts last year and a string of threats as to what will be done with it this year. The fact of the business is, the Port of Columbia bill is not popular in Port land, beyond the radius of a few ship ping offices, and its acceptance there, as -costly and ineffectual expedient for jmere temporary control of the river business, is Very floutyful, The Oregon- SIGN THE PETITION QUICKLY! It becomes the bounden duty of the people of Astoria and Clatsop, in sheer self-defense, to sign the petition now before this public at the instance of Secretary Ed. Rosenberg, of the United Fishermen of the Pacific, and sign it quicklv and to the last man in the county. It tells its story very plainly, in simple, unambiguous language, and there is enough in it to inspire the last shred of interest we have in the salmon industry of the Columbia. There can be no question of the readi ness of our people to prosecute this fight against the niinons policy of the fish -wheel owners of the tipper river and for the preservation of the industry for which we are famous and which means millions a year to the community aside from the work it furnishes to thousands of our people. Read the petition and then sign it and urge similar and in stant action on every friend you've got! ENORMOUS SUM FOR EDUCATION, LEVIED, BUT NOT PAID. Thre is not a citizen in all America who, for one instant, ever believed that the fine pf $2,240,000, levied against the Ol J 1 vM Kef .Tmlna 1 anAXm it. ffosnel f W-risWw in tM. ration 3lauuaIli v" ""P -1 6 to the people who are expected to pay ian is mighty tut it has yet to justify 1 half a million for a dubious privilege, and then continue paying year by year, imply to fill the pockets of a Baker's floien of conscienceless operators, in com meree that must sooner or later be done from the mouth of the river. It is morally certain that the law will never be accepted by the. people of Clatsop county under any circumstances -whatever; that it will be fought to the last court in the land. The whole prop osition is nothing but a raw tissue of buncombe strung on a thread of lies in volving the tug and pilot service here, that will not stand for a moment in the light of honest inquiry; and the Ore gonian may make up its mind that a "walk-over" for this palpable fraud, next June, is among the most dubious of all that the people will be called upon to vote for and will come out of the elec toral mill in tatters. We had it pretty veil shredded; but that is nothing to what will be done with it this summer. Wje iwould like to join Multnomah in some decent enterprise for the commercial uplift of the Columbia River basin, but we gag at this infamous graft and are ft unit down here in our willingness to atand in the very fore-front of its impla cable enemies. It is among the worst! things ever submitted to a decent public, and what that public shall not know of its infamy by the dawn of election day will not be chargable to this paper nor this people. o THE COLUMBIA IN LINE. i It is quite within reason to anticipate, that in the event of any notable move ment in Congress for liver and harbor improvement, this winter, the Columbia river will receive adequate consideration, from the fact of its growing importance as a commercial factor and the huge railway enterprises that are centering in its basin. We need much at the mouth of the river and between this harbor and the mouth of the Willamette, and thence to Portland and shall be glad to eee proper attention paid to that sec tion, and to all points in the upper reaches of the great river; for the car dinal reason that every atom of im provement contributed to the river east of Tongue Point makes for the supreme essential amendment of the conditions here, since all that may be done else where is futile without the fulness of progressive work here and on the barj and aside from the commercial reasons that aTe accumulating steadily in this behalf, there are strategic grounds that will amplify themselves before many moons to such an extent as will give impetus to all that is needed in this locale.

WASHINGTON', Jan. 13.-F1gured 1 dollars and cents the tremendous organ uatiou for public education which Ne York has built up represents the iuvest nicnt of the income from the enormous sum of $2,(MX,OOO,OO0. The entire cost of Fattier Kuickeifbocty'r's schools they stand today is nearly (100,000,000, according to the latest report of the Finance Committee of ho Board of Edu cation, a sum spent for education alone and equal to one-tenth of the annual appropriation of Congress for the var tous needs of the eutire country. thi $100,000,000 about one-quarter, or $25,000,000, has been used for the pur pose of sites, so that the value of the real estate in this city devoted to educa tiou is ou its present valuaton probably greater than that held by any one of th city's money kings. For the erection of school buildings $00,000,000 has been spent, thus making these holdings larg er than those of aiiy owner of skyacrap era It has taken more than $11,000,000 to equip these schools. The Board of Education now own 620 buildings and leases 00 more thus bringing the tot a owned and operated by the city to near !y 000. The total area of the sites oc cupied is 401 acres. If the area were cut up into building lots 25 by 100 feet and placed end to eud it would give a strip 23 feet wide and 132 miles long reaching for example from Xew York to Albany, all of which is devoted to the cause of education iu that citv. The total school attendance each day aggre gates more than the combined popula ion of evaua, South Dakota and Alaska. would be paid. It was a foregone con elusion that the utter limit of legal re sort would be projected into the famous case and that, sooner, or later, the need ed expedient, in contravention of the edict imposing it, would be found and worked. Popular opinion finds justifies tion in the steps already taken by the monster combine, and after a little while some hidden clause in the vast and in' tricate volumne of "law" will be found that will forever bar the collection of the stupendous fine, as well as the Judge who will be quite ready to admit its applicability. But all the same the peo ple are glad to know there has been one jurist who was immune from the spell of the Octopus and who did his duty as no one ever did it before in history. 0 Congressman Walliace of Arkansas gained tremedous applause among his colleagues by reading the first half dozen words in three of his speeches, and asking "leave to extend my re marks in the Record."
