The Injured Carpenter.
"I -was on the second span of the
bridge when it happened," explained
O. HV Scott, the carpenter, now at Provi
dence. "A beam must have struck me,
lor I tumbled onto the river bed. I
think then I was unhurt and fell clear
of the car. Then something fell on me.
it was Jackson. I -was on my face In
the sand, and his knee, I guess, stuck
into my back.
j W. Jackson, the other carpenter,
was uninjured. He remembers falling
on Scott. The injured man has an ugli'
bruise near the spine. He is in great
suffering, and may be the most serious

Hotter and Babe.
Hugging her 4monthsold infant to
her brlasf where the baby had nursed
Conception Fuentes, w no lives at Mnth
and Ore-ron streets, was a part of the
pile of humanity. In attainting to save
her child, the woman received an ugl
fall, and was injured about the face
and leg:, and the Infant about the hip.
In ambulances, carriages, and auto
mobiles, the injured were rushed to El

Almost as soon as the injured were
removed to the hospitals, workers be
gan repairing the bridge. Cars are be
tnK run over both Stanton and Santa
Fe streets, but the bridge will not be
open until the last of the week. Pas
sengers transfer there.
Authorities of the uarez district court,
under -whose jurisdiction all such ac
cidents fall, have ordered the bridge
offifciallv closed. No one will be al
lowed to pass. However the river bed
Is being used for pedestrians.
"I do not know what will be done
about the bridge, said G. G. Morso. act
ing superintendent of the electric rall
wav company when asked if a new
bridge would be built. "At present we
will raise the fallen bridge and make
It safe for traffic just as soon as possi
ble. The contractors can give me no
definite date, but experts are looking
over the task. "We do not kno-w the
cause of the accident, but are reason
ably sure that the repairing of the
bridge had nothing at all to do with
it."

Workmen "Weaken Bridge.
An engineer, who saw the bridge
after the accident, said It was due to
carelessness of the carpenters making
repairs. He said they removed the nuts
from some bolts supporting the first
span of the bridge and that the weight
of the car simply pulled the bridge
down.
"Workmen were engaged in repairing
the second span of the structure, but
foreman R. L. Beeves declared after
4Via sifoSflpnt that the men had not
touched the first span and they had j
done but little work on the second.

Government for Arest.
San Diego, Cal.. July 29. D. W. Mc
Kay, the millionaire mining man. for
merly of Alaska, who was recently ar
rested at Tia Juana, just across the in
ternational boundary, and taken over
land to Ensenada, came to San Diego
vesterday and consulted with his attor
ney with a view of seeking redress from
the Mexican government.
McKay declared that he had not yet
decided what steps he will take. He
said that the treatment accorded him
at Enseiiada, where he was promptly re
leased on 150 bail, wa5 in sharp con
trast to that received at the hands of
the Mexican officials at Tia Juana.
McKay is supposed to have been ar
rested for cutting a hole in a fence on

MITE IN
OVER PROTEST
Minnesota Democrats insist
That He Run for Gov
ernor Whether or No.
Minneapolis, Minn., July 29. Demo
cratic storm signals which were flying
when the state Democratic state con
vention met here yesterday were torn
to shredfa by the tempest of feeling
which was let loose late yesterday after
noon over the nomination of John Lind (
for governor and the atempt to intro
duce a direct resolution in the party
platform favoring county option.
For more than three hours up to the
very minute when the motion to ad
journ was carried, there was no let up
to the sceire of disorder except for a few
moments "when the chairman made him
self heard, after terrific pounding with
a piece of 2x4 scantling, which he used
as a gavel.
Mutterlngs of trouble were heard
early in the day and an unusual con
dition existed. The delegates were
unanimous in declaring that John Lind
was one of the best Democrats in Min
nesota. They were all his friends, but
divided into two factions. One declared
that Lind must be nominated despite
.his repeated refusals to be a candidate
and his flat declaration in a telegram
from Portland, Oregon, that he would
not accept Tub nomination if made; the
other argued that Lind had been gov
ernor of Minnesota and had nothing to
gain by the nomination and that he
was of sufficient importance to have his
wishes heeded by the convention.
The latter faction argued and shook
fistjs at the chairman and at the other
side, while those who were bent on
nominating Lind howled, hissed and
completely blocked the procedings un
til by sheer force of nois and enthu
siasm they won their point and secured
the nomination.
Even then the friends opposed to the
nomination took advantage of a motion
to make the nomination unanimous to
argue.
They wanted an opportunity to submit
the nomination to Mr. Lind by tele
graph and await his answer to take a
recess until S p. m. If necessary, but this
failed and finally the nomination was
made unanimous and the convention
adjourned at 6:33.
Other nominations were made by ac
clamation. On the matter of resolutions there
was no contention except for plank on
county option. The anti-county option
ists were in the saddle in the committee
on resolutions. This committee heard
the resolutions offered by the county
optionlsts and then voted them down
and Inserted a plank declaring for the
initiative and referendum, which the
committee declared would answer the
purpose.
On the other resolutions in the plat
form there was no fight. On national
issues the platform deolores xhi vtal--ness
and timidity of president Taft, who.
with his campaign promises sti.l fresh
but dominated by the predatory Inter
ests weakly failed to use the tremen
dous forces of his high office to fore
a recreant congressional majority to do
Its duty of tariffvreform" anj continues:
"We condemn the administration fcr
its initial effort to prevent the conser
vation of natural resources and have
nothing but contempt for Its Insincere
efforts to appear to support conserva
tion after public disapproval of its
course was manifested.
"We condemn the retention of lUch
ard A. Ballinger as secretary of the in
terior after the exposure of his meth
ods of conducting the affairs cf that
office relating to conservation and
declare it to be a national s.-nnda!.
"We deplore the discharge of CJIfford
Pinchot from the office of chief forest
er as a national crime.
"The Democrats of Minnesota com
mend the Republican insurgents of
Minnesota for their vote on the Payne
tariff bill.
"We strongly commend the course of
Winfield Scott Hammond, the Demo-'
cratic representatlve of Minnesota in
congress, and urge jhe people of his
district to reelect h&n.
"We demand the election of United
States senators by direct vote of the
people."

man Dcpnty Constable
of San Antonio.
San Antonio, Tex., July 29. Al
though Texas does not grant woman
suffrage, yet the returns from the pri
mary elections show that two women
were nominated for office by the Dem
ocrats. The nomination is equivalent
to an election.
In Wilson county Miss Annie Wise
man defeated R. W. Corleison for
district clerk by 21 votes. She made
an' active campaign of the county.
FJoresville is the county seat and
there will be no opposition to her
qualifying for the office.
