Great Anxiety lt. Cheyenne, Wyo., April 17. Great anxiety is felt here by the friends of the imprisoned stockmen and by the state authorities over the sitoation in Johnson county. The orders of Govei nor Barbour, directing that the captured stockmen at Fort McKlnney be brought to Douglas, and his order that Sheriff Angus turn over the four prisoners he is holding to the military authorities served to arouse intense excitement throughout northern Wyomiog, the small ranchmen believing the invaders will be spirited out of reaoh of the county authorities, and by some legal joggling escape trial or punishment tor killing Kay and Champion, l he gov ernor disclaims any intention of aiding the prisoners to escape punishment, and says tbey will be turned oyer to the ciyil authorities as soon as adequate protection can be given. The wires went down since the orders to have the prisoners brought to Douglass were sent, and news of the governor s intentions to ultimately turn the prisoners over to the civil au thorities has not reached northern Wy omiog. The latest information says the ranchmen are arming and congregating at Buffalo. Evident intention preventing the prisoners from being taken out of the country. . If they can be convicted the stockmen will be dealt with accord- ing to law. It is is generally believed they will disperse to their homes, and no violence will be offered the captives. If, however, tbey become convinced the stockmen are to escape legal punishment serious trouble will result, and the coon-tr- y will be placed uuder martial law. General John li. .Brooke, at Umaha, commanding this department, has tele graphed Governor Barbour that he had been instructed by the secretary" of war to deliver him the fortv odd cattlemen now imprisoned at Fort McKinney. " No- word has been received here from John son connty. and it is thought the rostlere have cut the wires to Bunalo. Snorts have been made to get dixpuich 's through, but they have failed. Governor Barbour is much alarmed and is anxious to get communication with Fort McKio ney. It is now generally admitted that the removal of prisoners from McKinney to Douglass would be- - very hbzardous. It is certain the rustler will capture tbem on the way, and every hour adds a more strious aspect to the. situation. Governor Barbour has not yet notified General Brooker whether he will receive the prisoners now at Fort McKinney. Public sentiment is turning in favor of the rusilers. The People are Angry. Buffalo, Wytf., April 15. This morn ing the sheriff demanded the prisoners from the commanding officer, who re- fused, as bis orders are to bold and pro tect tbem until further instructions. The county residents are remaining in tbe city. Tbe bodies of Champion and Ray were brought in town today, and were viewed at the undertaker's.' Tbe former has twenty-eig- ht bullets ia bis body, while the remains of Ray were unrecog nizable, tbe legs and bead being entirely consumed by lire, leaving only tbe charred and roasted trunk. The sight of this causes tbe most intense feeling against tbe prisoners, but no trouble is feared unless it is obvious that justice will be defeated. Tom Keze. who is fore- man of tbe Murphy Cattle Company, said Fay Parker, who is manager of that outfit, said tbe prisoners bad no fears, that tbey bad any quantity of money and could boy themselves oat, and that Par - ker today received a letter trom a stranger offering $5000 if needed. Tbe prisoners appear neither sorry nor worried, about their crimes. Tbe only anxious idea tbe people have, is that the'mvaders have so much wealth at their command and so many friends at court, tbey will escape : tbe punishment deserved. The special guardhouse resembles a hotel or summer resort. The prisoners sun them- selves on tbe piazza, board at tbe Canteen restaurant, and are escorted to and from their meals by guards. ' ' a ' Kew Brazilian Kepnbile. . New York, April 17. Tbe BeralcCi correspondent at Bio de Janeiro, Brazil, cables the following: "President Peix otto is sending two expeditions to put down tbe insurrection is tbe state of Matto Grosso, which - bas now assumed such serious proportions as to flighten tbe authorities. One expedition goes by railway. Tbe soldiers, after being con- veyed to tbe end of the route, will have a vast deal of bard tramping ahead of tbem before tbey reach Cayvia. The other expedition goes by sea on one of tbe gov ernment transports. - It is expected that tbe land and sea forces will combine in the attack. It will take from ten- - to twelve days for them to reach their desti nation. Cayvia ia well defended, and the revolutionists are reported to be well armed and organized and to have for- midable artillery. President Peixotto is using tbe strongest measures at bis com mand in suppressing tne insurrection, and it is not believed here that Matto Grosso can long bold ont against the gov- ernment. Tbe population of the state is small compared with its vast area. Its residents are nearly all negroes and In- dians. Tbe difficulty in reaching it and disturbances in other parts of Brazil may prolong tbe struggle, but that tbe new republic will eventually be blotted out, seems to be a foregone conclusion.. JL Darlnc Jail Break. Chehalis, Wash., April 15. A daring jail break was accomplished .about mid night, by which two prisoners held on serious charges secved their liberty. H C Place, who has been a trusty and given great liberty by tbe jailor, secured a revolver in some unknown way. When Deputy Sheriff Frank Carpenter made tbe late rounds be held bim up, compelled bim to open the doors, and then with tbe assistance of the other prisoner, Isador Joseph, bound and gagged him, and the two made their escape. After an hour and a half's bard work, Carpenter liberat ed himself and gave tbe alarm. Place was held for a nameless crime committed at Centralis in January, and Joseph is tbe bogus newspaper man who bad recently forged several checks at Peel, this county. Joseph bad every prospect of being liber ated in a day or two tnrougn tbe assist- ance of friends who came forward to make good tbe losses of bis victims. Sheriff Barnett has half a dozen deputies looking for the fugitives. . . ' The Promised land. Oklahoma City, April 17. It is esti mated that 25,000 people were today toe ing tbe line of tbe Cheyenne and Arapa hoe reservation, making ready for tbe charge Tuesday. Filers will have ad vantage over settlers, as tbey will be ready to make declaration before tbe settlers, can possibly reach desirable lands. - Tbe Santa Fe is preparing to run numerous trains into tbe reservation tbe day of tbe opening, and the ' race for those on horseback and in wagons will be a long one.. Merchants, with loads of iroods of all conceivaole kinds, will be on band, and a few hours alter tbe opening will be doing business at tbe county seat. Thousands have already given np all hope of getting homes and will leave at once. Many hope to be able to parcnase claims cheap from the squatters. At Kingfisher tjie land receiver bas decided tbe line formed four weeks ago bas no legal status, and there is serious talk oi forming another line. In this event, trouble will follow and possibly blood shed. Wilson Rourghly Handled. Washington. April 16 Representative Wilson, of Washington, was roughly bandied by several watchmen and mes- sengers at tbe bureau of printing and engraving this evening. He entered the building after hours and was proceeding upstairs without having made himself known. He was remonstrated with by a watchman, but still persisted, and did not disclose bis identity. Tbe watchman grasped tbe member from Washington with the intention of retarding bis pro- gress, when the congressmen, in true Western style, dealt tbe watchman a blow that sent bim reeling down tbe stairs. Several watchmen and messengers then seized upon the Western congressmen, and before the . tussle was over be re ceived a pretty severe drubbing. - Mr. Wilson succeeded finally in reaching Su- perintendent Meredith's office, when an explanation was made. It is not prob- able tbat any vacancy in the force of watchmen at the bureau will occur be cause of the incident. . V Another Blaine Story. Brooklyn, April 16. William H. Grace, whose recent report of an inter- - view with Mr. Blaine attracted much at- tention, today reiterated bis statement tbat Blaine will accept the nomination for president should it be made, and says be makes the stctement without fear of authoritative contradiction. He says Mr. Blaine in accenting tbe nomination could do so in perfect harmony with bis, letter ot declination; tbat be only declined to become a candidate by reason of .being in the cabinet of one who is a candidate, and because of bis desire for continued harmony in tbe cabinet, in view ot tbe many questions of importance pending affecting our relations with a number of foreign nations. Mr.' Grace calls upon the admirers of Blaine to go to Minne- apolis and demand bis nomination. Rnstler In Favor. Douglas, Wyo, April 18. The feeling of prominent citizens in this section against the Johnson county outrages is growing bonrly more intense, as tbe leal facts of the atrocities become more fully known. Although Converse and Johnson counties are adjacent to each other, the county seats, Douglaa and Buffalo are 150 miles apart. The people ot Douglas are as intensely interested, boweyer. as those of'Jobnson county. All tbe stock men in tbe mob are well known bere and several of tbem reside in this county. Frank Wolcott is the leader and F. C. Ir vine, his lieutenant, is tbe state live stock commissioner. Tbey are both residents of Converse county, Wolcott has not a hoof ot stock in Johnson connty, and was never wronged by a settler up there. Tbe sentiment of ths people here is tbat tbe Fort McKinney prisoners can never again reside as citizens in Converse, John- son or Natrona counties, for if Wolcott or any of bis followers should set' foot ia this section, except as prisoners, tbey would be shot down, and there are not officers enough in Wyoming to protect tbem for a day. Tbe settlers wilt protect tbem until tbey Can have an impartial trial In Jounson county, and there is no fear of violence if Governor Barber keeps his hands off. Blver and n arbor Improvements. Washington, April 18. Senators 8quire and Allen were before tbe senate committee on commerce to urge the im portance of river and harbor improve- ments in their state. Senator Squire was particularly anxious that an appropria- tion be made for tbe improvement of the Columbia river to 'Vancouver, and urged at length the necessity for allowing deep-wat- er vessels to reach that city. The various other improvements suggested, and tor which the senators have- - intro- duced amendments, were asked for, and each of tbe senators gave bis views upon tbe importance of the projects proposed. Tbey also asked for a number of surveys, ana aweu upon toe proposition ui sur- veying and improving tbe Upper Co- lumbia to the International boundary line, and suggested that $60,000 be ap- propriated to open up this great water- way through the 'Eastern Washington beat belt. Senator squire again urgea upon tbe committee tbe importance ot bis bill for tbe .bakes union ana wasa- - canal, but tbe committee did not ington . . . . rt . n , qeciae 10 report i. (senator oquire 10 anxious to secure . a unanimous report from the committee on tbe bill, as Sena- tor Dolpb bas assured him tbat it will be favorably reported. ' .: Enrope's Anarchists. Beklin, April 13. It is expected the Workingmen will not be allowed to hold processions anywhere in Germany May day. ' Maybe the anarchists will attempt to parade in spite of tbe prohibition tbat may be issued, but tbe authorities are determined there shall be no repetition of rioting in this city. It is not believed the genuine workingmen will cause any trouble. ,' . ' Rome. April 18. Much anxiety is felt throughout Italy as to tbe May day cele bration. Tbe socialists, ot wnom mere are. many in all tbe Italian cities, threat en to. sbow strength. Tue authorities, however, are fully alive to tDe oemanoa of the occasion. Attempts to create dis- turbances will be aeverely repressed. Paris. April 18 In France the social ists are preparing to bold processions everywhere on May day. It is expected 2,000,000 - will be in line aitogeiner. While disturbances are not looked for, the authorities are prepared to meet tbem in case tbey occur. The demonstrations are chiefly in favor of an eight hour day. The Crisis at Winnipeg Passed. Winnipeg. April 18. The flood crisis here is !hougbt to have passed. Tester-da- y, in order to relieve the pressure of tbe ice on tbe Louise bridge, the Cana dian Pacific used dynamite freely. This started tbe ice to move and it poured past in great volumes, sweeping everything before it. Bath Douses were crushed, telegraph poles snapped, switch boxes torn away, scows thrown upon tbe banks and portioas of the piers oi me uroaawaj bridce were swept down tbe stream, loe water began to fall rapidly and unless tbe ice jams further down the stream, as it did in 1882, which was tbe direct cause of the disastrous floods that y ear, it is possible tbe worst bas been seen. The Northern Pacific tracks along the river lront are rapidly becoming visible again. Deemtn Is Prononneed Bane. Mklboobne, April 18. The medical board who have examined murderer Deeming as to bis sanity, pronounce bim to be mentally sound and penecuj re sponsible for all his actions. ' The state ment tbat Deeming was mad when he committed tbe murder at Rainhill and Windsor while suffering from instinctive insanity received no credence from the board. Deeming maintains bis nonchal ant air, and continues to talk of what be will do when he goes back to England He said today tbat without tbe help of a lawyer he could convince any jury, it ne tried, that be was innocent. He eats heartily, saying tbat he does not intend to go into a decline because the authori- ties hold bim in jail for a few weeks. Tbe chaplain was admitted to bim on D nday and Deeming talged with bim on reugidSs subjects. He remarked, how ever, tbat be did not care much for religion, as the woman who got him into trouble by her unfaithfulness (Miss Mather) was reading a prayer-book- . A Ramor Denied. Washington, April .15. Reports are in circulation bere to tbe effect that it is understood to be tbe purpose of this gov ernment ta gradually cease their diplo matic relations with Chili. Tne atten tion ot Assistant Secretary Wharton, of tbe state department, was called to the report, and be said tbere was no trntb in it. He said both Minister Egan and Consul McCreery were granted leaves of absence, but Egan would leave the sec retary of tbe legation at Santiago, and Consul McCreery tbe vice-cons- at Val- paraiso in charge. No claim for indem nity on account of the attack od Ameri can sailors has heen- - made of the Chilian government yet. The question is being reserved lor future consideration. Chinese Exclusion Bill. Washington. April 15. Senator Fel- - ton is at work getting together an array of figures and data which he will use in bis speech in the senate when the Dolpb Chinese bill comes up for' consideration. He says he will be ready to take the matter up uext Monday if Senator Djlph is willing. It is understood that the latter will call tbe bill up whenever Fel-t- on signifies tbat he is prepared. Felton will move to substitute Geary's bill for Dolph's. '. An Old Indian Woman's Adventure. Olympia, Wash , April 14. Old Julia, a fumonssiwai-- character, while walking near the Northern Pacific bridge today, was' struck by an overland engine and burled into the air, falliDg twenty feet away. She lay motionless in the mud for a time, and it was first thought she was dead, bnt she soon arose and walked away, practically uninjured. . Women Voting; in Illinois. x Chioago, April. t6. School elections were held throughout Illinois today, and for tbe first time women exercised tbe right of suffrage. Tbey turned oat in large numbers, and in nearly every in- stance secured the election of their favor- ite candidate. Ia several towns a 's ticket was in tbe field against tbe men's ticket, and in every case tbe fair ones were victonous. . A Terrible Hall Storm. Columbia, S. C. April 15. Tbe moBt terrific hail storm tbat ever visited this state occurred at Bennetsville yesterdsy.' Some bail stones are said to have1 been two inches in diameter. The v covered the ground to a depth of six niches. Many chickens and hogs were killed ; all tbe windows in town were broken ; great damage was done to grain,' vegetables and small fruits. K. of P.

Last Friday Moro Lodge, No. 113, 1. 0. O. F. was organized at Moro in Sherman county with twelve members, and the following officers installed:- C. E. Jones, N. G.;Mr. Peoples, treasurer, O. E.

A public installation of the officers was held in the evening, and at mid- night a bountiful collation was spread by the citizens for the visiting Odd-Fellow- s. We have talked with some of the guests, and they say that the table to which they sat down was burdened with good things. An Anglo-Saxon-'s heart is always reached by way of his stomach, and we are fully persuaded that some of the young men from this city who were present will have an attraction towards the excellent lady cooks at Moro who prepared the repast When the guests' left that city in Sherman county this morning there was a sacred niche in the chamber of their memories devoted to the citizens of Moro, and especially to'the ladies who prepared the refection.

He has been engaged during the past week in surveying a ditch in Hood River, and will leave Monday for Colfax, Wash., where the citizens are putting in a new system of waterworks. The attention of candidates for office is called to section 39 oi the late election laws which calls for the filing of the certificate of nomination with the county clerk 30 days prior to tbe election; also his acceptance or declination of tbe nomination. This can be done by mail, but must be attended to by tbat time in order to ensure the candidate's name being placed on the ticket Fossil Journal: The Gilman-Frenc- h cattle recently dehorned are now in a very bad way, owing to the operation having been performed too late in the season. Since tbe warm weather set in, flies have attacked tbe unhealed heads of the cattle, ' and can- not be dislodged. A number have already died, and if the present weather holds out it is feared many more will be lost. Mr. G. W. Ingalls, will conduct the religious services of the Baptist church at the Academy morning at 11 o'clock. The subject will be, "Not far from the Kingdom." By special invita tion he win speak at the Oumore school house, Rockland, Wash., at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The shadow social last evening at the KcKinley club hall was largely attended. Mr. J. B. Crosaen auctioned tne "shadows" beautiful youna ladies to the highest bidder, ann the prices ranged from 10 cents to $2.50. A very enjoyable time whs had. and the gentlemen of this community will look forward anxiously to a repetition of. the entertainment. Tbe receipts, we are glad to state, were very liberal, and the funds of the Good Templars' lodge will be increased by a very generous sum. Salem Statesman: beputy Sheriff Misener arrived from Portland last night having in 'charge two men under sentence to the state penitentiary. One of them is Fred r. Jew ell, sentenced to four years for forgery on two charges, receiving two years for each. The other was Frank Parkinson, a boy, who will serve four years on two indictments of tbe larceny of an overcoat and a pair of gloves from a dwelling. He would have been sent to the reform school bad it not been for his advanced age. His pal, Theodore Mahler, will be brought op to serve three years on two charges. The sale of four hundred hay-fe- d Nevada steers the other day for $35 around, de livered at tbe railway nation for .shipment to San Francisco, is proof positive that cat- tle valnes on tbe Pacific coast are stiffening, says the Baker City Democrat. It is pretty evident that prices will continue to improve for some years, and that new life and vigor will be given to the industry. We under- stand tbat California batchers are offering to contract Nevada and Idaho steers for next summer's delivery at the railroad and getting no cattle. The lowest offer on tbe part of tbe ranchmen at which they are willing to contract their steers is $35, and tbe price generally set is $40. From Monday's Dally. The county jail is without a single occu pant. Dr. Millivard and family, of Grant, are in the city. ' Mr. C. F. Hobart, of Seattle, Wash., is in tne city. Mr. E. Jacocsen returned yesterday from a visit to the metropolis. Tbe street sprinkler ' was ont to-d- for the first time, and gaye our thoroughfares a good wetting down. The names' of Loenolert Heinrich Gott- - ied and Miss Jaset Flolachers, of Germany, are registered at the Umatilla House. Mrs. Wm. Shelly, who has been visiting friends in the city for tbe past two days, , returned to her home near Ceiilo on the noon train y. - Mr. G. W. Barnes, a lawyer of Prine- - yille, was in the city yesterday, en route to the Democratic convention which convenes in Portland . ' The exercises in the different churches in the city yesterday were commemorative of Easter, and were very appropriate and attracted large audiences. ' Tbe evening train yesterday and the one this morning were filled with delegates tor the Democratic state convention, which meets in Portland Mr. Frank Irvine and family left y for Antelope. In conjunction with Mr. Ed. M. Wingate Mr. Irvine will start in gen- eral merchandise in that town. Astoria Herald, 15tb: Ray Logan, Eddie Parker, Arthur Jack and Duncan McLean returned trom Portland this morning where they have been attending school. Hardly a day has pasted daring the pres- ent month that rain has not fallen in this yicinity. This is something nnusal this season of the year, and ia yery encouraging to farmers. Mr. John Leahy, formerly agent for the Union Pacific in Tbe Dalles, bat now freight agent for the Northern Pacific, was a pass- enger 00 the noon train yesterday, en route to his home in Walla Walla. Judge Bradshaw, Hon. W. H. Wilson, prosecuting attorney, and Mr. H. S. Wil- son, member of the firm of Huntington & Wilson, of this city, returned Saturday from attending a term of the circuit court at Condon. CoL Jos. T. Haynes, of Portland, orand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of Ore- gon, passed through the city yesterday evening. He was returning from Pendle- ton, where he organised a uniform Rank of the order. ' A long freight train of agricultural im- plements passed through the city yesterday to Portland, consisting of traction engines, headers, etc. This is a good advertisement of the northwest and of its facilities for grain-growin- In the window of Mr. J. C. Baldwin's store on Front street is a lithographio pio-tu- re of Tbe Dalles in 1858. The city con- sisted of a very few buildings, and no one, except residing here at that date, would recognize the town. Astoria Tali, Friday: Mr. Dnnbar was discharged from the county jail this morn- ing. He was placed in a private carriage hr his friends and with his familv was driven around the city and saluted by I almost everybody he met. When coming J from Smith's Point the carriage was about to pass Mr. Elmore on the roadway. Mr. Elmore stepped to one side, politely raised hat and said, "uood morning. Air. Dun can." The action of Mr. Elmore was com mendable. A Walla Walla man about a year ago started a. man out with a band of sheep on the range. A few days ago be received the following from him: "If you want me to remain here any longer you II have to get anotber band of sheep; them s all gone. The Statesman 'says it is wonderful the number of buildings now in course of con struction in Boise. Houses are going uo by dozens on every hand. Tbe plans for l)e- - Lamar's hotel show a hotel building tbat has no equal in the northwest A large opera bouse building is contracted tor. This is from the Blade, and should be taken cum grano saUs: Baker county will produce in the next two years more gold tban the whole state of Oregon has pro duced in the last twenty years. Keep your eyes open ye wily capitalists, and a chance win present itselt lor doubling your money in a shorMime. ' Two little boys of Waitsburg, aged itpout ten years, conceived the idea of visiting the great Inland Empire. One got as far as Belles Junction and returned; but tbe other journeyed on as far as Walla W alla, when he was taken in charge by a railroad em ploye, and ted and lodged. The next day bis father came, and the boy was quite anxious to go home. The remains ot Miss Ruth G. Ward were l iought to this city Friday evening, and were buried beside those of her father at Dufur yesterday. Very many oi our people will remember Miss Ward, who in early girlhood resided in Ihe Dalles and was be loved by her companions for many estimable traits of character, and who will deplore her early death.- - The brother, mother and other members of the family in this com munity will receive tho heartfelt sympathy ci our citizens. Astorian: Everyone interested in the success of the new railroad, and tbat means all Astoria, was pleased to see the Frank- - Yort come in yesterday with a barge laden with 30,000 pounds of giant powder, 25 wagons and 60 carts. There wore mauy head of mules and horses as well ss thous- ands of picks and uliovels aUo on board. Mr. Foley, who was in charge, proceeded to Olney, whence the Frankfort will return to Kalama for more supplies. Thus does the work go bravely on. Quite an exciting scone was enacted on Court street this morning in a pugilistic en counter between two boys and a Chinaman. The celestial, displayed considerable grit, and had quite an advantage in the encoun- ter with one but was knocked down by the second taking a part in the heat of the affray. Our reporter did not see tbe of the trouble; but know that boys usually are too insulting to Chinamen, aud in many instances should be severely pun ished by law for interference with the rights of Celestials. They are residents in this country, and should be protected. Baker Democrat: Friday evening Sheriff J. N. Fell, of Malheur coonty, arrived in this city having in charge Lee Mullen, one the persons charged with the killing of William Humbert a few days ago, at West- - fall, that county. The prisoner was placed in charge of Sheriff Conde and he will re- main in the jail here nntil the next session of the circuit court for Malbeur county. The object of confining Mullen in the jail of this county is to separate- him from bis accomplices in order that any attempt to in fluence him as a witness in behalf of his partners in crime will be frustrated. The Klamath Star gets off the following: Tbe Klamaths have caught dead loads of mullet this season. Tbey dry them, pile tbem as high ss cord wood, and haul tbem to their homes on the reservation for sum mer eating. Tbe drying preserves them hnely, and - when properly roasted and served np with green corn and butter, they are "hiyu muck-a-muck- " for the good In- dian, aud this flavor is so pleasurable to the relish of the epicure that be creaks forth in a series of exclamations having no logical dependence or natural connection,' though expressive of a joy that extends deep down into his bowels. Salem Stalesman: The recent stabbing affray at Kiddles, Douglas county, which resulted in tbe death of Chester Pogue, brother of M. E. Pogue, of this city, is the second quarrel between sohoolmates that haa resulted fatally at Riddles. Russell. tbe young fellow who stabbed Rufus Quine, in the first row that occurred there, was sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years, but was afterward pardoned by the governor. Arthur Wright, tho school boy , that fatally stabbed - Chester Pogue, was highly connected but was al ways of a quarrelsome disposition. Dick Swarts, of Salem, is his granduncle. ' Considerable excitement has been occas ioned at Drewsy of late, says tne Harney Times, by the disappearance of Marion Anderson, alias "Jesse James," a young mau who ' has been working for. Thomas Howard. He started out on horseback recently and a few days afterward tbe horse returned with the saddle on. A search party was formed which scoured tbe coun- try far and near.. His spurs and bridle Were found in an old deserted cabin, but the searchers could find no further trace of him. Some believe he bas been foully dealt with, while others think he has skipped the country and took this method of leaving to create a sensation. Asotin Sentinel: ' A short time since a number of boya holed a rabbit near tbe farm of W. C. Boggan, in the vioinity of Mont- gomery ridge. Its hiding place was in a ledge of loose shell rock, and while the boys were making an effort to capture it they uncovered three skeletons, supposed to be those of Indians. Beside one of the skele- tons was an old gun, of the flint rock pat tern, ' with a piece of Hint still in tbe pan. The gun barrel was a little rusty bat the wood work is still in a good state of preser- vation. It was tbe custom among the In- dians np to sixty years ago, to bury their dead in snob places as this and also to de- posit in the grave all their earthly effects for future use when tbey arrived in the happy hunting ground. Bat in this instance it appears the fellow either didn't arrive at bis destination, or else in bis nurry lorgot his gun. , The Australian ballot law makes it tbe duty of tbe county clerks of tho state to prepare and post notices of all offices to be rilled at any general or special election. County Clerk Payne, of Lion county in "making up his notice for the coming Jane election, refused to place tbe omce ot attorney-- general in the notice as an office to be filled at such election. Consequently a mandamus suit has been filed against Payne to compel him to place such office in his election notice. Ihe case came oetore Judge Boise in chambers Thursday and he ren dered a decision without bearing any argu ment. He said he had occasion to look up the law, and he ordered a mandamus issued directing tbe county clerk to place the office of attorney-genera- l on tbe list to be elected. Judge Boise said the governor could not make appointments to extend be yond a general election, Ihe case will go at once 00 appeal to the supreme court, and an opinion may be looked for early this week. Hon. J. K. Weatberford and Judge Blackburn appeared for the aide represent- ing attorney-gener- and Montanye A Hackleman for the plaintiff. fom Tuesday s Dal J. The first warm day for tbe month. Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Johnston, of Dufur, are in the city. The clip of wool this season is of good fibre and very clean. Several wagons loaded with wool are reported on the road to Tbe Dalles, and these may be expected any day. Mr. Phil Brogan. sr- - returned from a visit to San Francisco last night. He bas been absent about a month. Mr. C G. Roberta left on the midnight train for Pendleton, where he will visit his daughters, who are attending school in that city. Moody's warehouse if crowded witb freight for the interior. John Day and Prairie City, in lirant county, are snipping this season via The Dalles. Ten carloads of cattle and . bogs were shipped trom R. E. Saltmarshe & Co.'s stockyards last nigh five to Clarnle and five to tbe stockyards in Portland. Mr. Dan Baker at the Wool Exchange I) I in the East , End has Pabst Milwaukee beer in small bottles on sale. Only 12 cents a bottle. Free lunch tor customers. Mr. Thomas Brogan arrived in the city yesterday direct from New Zealand, and will leave for Antelope in a few days, where be will engage in sheep business. ' The pleasant summer-lik- e weather to . day has appeared to stimulate oar people to a greater degree of activity than usual. Such agreeable weather will be of frequent occurrence in this city daring the present month. The horse of Mr. Lytle, which we men- tioned some days ago as being taken sick in the street near the Methodist church, died last night. He received every attention possible from a skillful veterinary surgeon, but never rallied. . Next Monday the third regiment of tb O. N. G. will bold tbo election for col- onel. We have heard only one name mentioned tbat of Lieut.-Co- l. Goo. T. Thompson, who is in every way qualified, and would make a most exceljent officer. The first wool of the season was received at Moody's warehouse a few days ago. To date fifty bales have been handled, and all . this haa come from tbe vicinity of Dayville, Grant county. No sales have been made, but tbe wool was consigned to a firm in San Francisco. Albany Herald: There are now four tiok-e- ts iu the field in Linn county, which will make a big, long ballot to be counted np i ' next June. A man who has been around a good deal says tbat the fanners' alliance vote win be something like 300 and the pro- - hibitiou about 200. but this it onlv guess work. Thursday night in Portland, while ter- n- porarily - insane, S. D. Merritt, the well known on tbe Union Paoifio, committed suicide by first cutting his throat with a dull table knife 'and then lamping oat of the second story window of bis lodg- ing house, crushing his skull in a frightful manner. y ' - Tbe telegraph reports a most terrific ' earthquake in San Francisco and other , portions of California this morning, in which several people were killed. Tbere were a number of buildings wrecked, and it is considered tbe most destructive tbat lias occurred iu.. California for, many, years. . " John Day Sentinel: R. Deardorf and T. ' Jl. Meador stopped in town yesterday on their way to The Dalles after freight for 1 isnam iiauranoe, 01 frame, ana a. Hack-ene- y, of this place. The boys expect a muddy trip and will load with wool down about Dayville. These are the first freight ' teams for the railroad this teasou trom tbit part of Grant county. An editor takes this consola tion amidst all the adversities and disap- - pointmenta to which his vocation is beir: W bile the life of a country editor is fw ' from being one of coutiuutl peaon aod hap- piness, still he at all times haa an abiding faith in tbe thought that after his death hit children wdl opt quarrel and fight over his property; and this assurance aids him ma- terially in bearing life's hardens. The ' darkest cloud has a silver lining." The hop acreage in Western Washing-- . (on is considerably increased this year notwithstanding the heavy losses incurred lust year on account of the ravages of the . bep louse. The habits of these pests are now understood by growers, who will be . better able to cope witb tbem this year. . The vines are looking healthy and grow- ing well, although the weather bat been unusually cold for this season of the year. ' The boat which Mr. Kennedy and son has' been at work on fbr some time past was ' launched in the Columbia river thit morn- ing. It It 41 ftet in length, 11 feet beam aud 4 feet depth oi hold. Iu being brought . down Union street yesterday afternoon, when nearly opposite the court house, the coupling pole of one of tbe wopoos broke . and delayed the launching until this morn,-bz- - When the machinery hat been put in the boat will be used in the trade for points on the river. It has sufficient eapaoity to catry considerable goods aod do quite a lucrative business for its owners. The people ot Astoria are preparing to celebrate .tbe centennial anniversary of the discovery ot tbe Uolumbia river with appro-- ?riate ceremonies on May 10, 11 and 12. , have been grossly taken in, howeyer, in the printing of the invitations. A fine , and artistio map and view of Astoria it lith-- osraDhed on the back of the invitation, but tome real estate boomers, evidently worked tbe committee and bad a townsite across the river to appear on tbe map in big letters and thowing a city bigger than Aatona. , The citizent of Astoria who paid $500 for the work are pretty indignant A carload of cattle was shipped from Corvallis to Portland the other day. Tbey were all milch cows and were pur- -, cbased for shipment to Japan on a steam-- ' ' There were thirty bead iu all taken to the' Orient twenty of which were purchased in Benton county at an average ot $30 per bead. The duty and- - freight on these thirty cows will be about $1000, making - each bovine cost about $100 landed in Japan, and they are nothing but Ameri- can milcb cows, either , Oregon City Courier: A few days ago a team was taking a lot of eggs to town from the store of Mr. Grace at Clarke. Tbe load proved too large and two cases of eggs were unloaded at the house of a farmer. Tbose eggs disappeared over night and the day following a boy came to Mr. Orace t store with a half doxen eggs to tell, They were bought and next day and also tbe third day a boy came with eggs to tell. But tbe third day the boy had fan eggs in the ' backet that walked off from tbe farmer t house with the eggs. He wat collared aod confessed that he had been selling Mr. Grace bit own eggs and the young thief's parents paid the bilL Albany has enjoyed more prosperity In tbe last few years tban ever before. Jid this is explained by tbe enterprise of her " business men. Not satisfied with a wool- en factory, she is looking forward to a lannerv. and in this connection we a note from tbe Herald; "A definite proposition has been made, it is said, by Messrs. Riggt and Shea, of Brownsville, to re- - ' move ineir tannery irom mat piace ana to locate it at Albany, providing tbe citi- zens bere will take stock in tbe enter--' : prise to the amount of $50G0. Tbe mat- - ' ter it worthy of full investigation, for eyery manufacturing enterprise tbat promises permanency and success should be induced to come bere if possible." Idaho Avalanche: Word was telephoned . . T rrt 1 f ,,t ... 14 11 U IU UlU.UI .1 .J.UIli .MB. A. Steele, a carpenter, bad been shot by Peter Medlin, a miner, and a little later the y announcement was received tbat Steele was dead. From report! of the aad affair it seems that the two mn, who were near neighbors, were quarrelling about an out house belonging to Medlin, which irom it location was obnoxious to Steele. After some words,' Mediio went into bit bouse and procuring a tbot gun deliberately thot Steele, both their wives being present Mrs. . Steele rushed to ber husband as be fell, and while in the aot of raising him op Medlin palled the other barrel of the gun, which fortunately only snapped. The abot took effect in Steele's tide, nearly disemboweling him, and after two hourt of great agony he . died. John Day Sentinel: A young man named Marion Anderson, but better known as Jessie James, left Tom How- - ' ards' ranch in tbe Drewsey country on tbe morning of the 22nd alt. As be did not. return, bit friends became an xloua '" and sent out a searching party.. They scoured the neighboring country and - found Anderson's horse all saddled, on tbe range. This only increased their arlarm aod anxious inquiries bava been tent in all directions. We are pleased to be able to solve tbe mystery as follows: : Harve Middletwortb of this city informs us that be overtook tbe missing man at Soda springs, and tbat together they rode as far as John Day. Anderson was around bore several days aod finally bear- ing of a job at herding sbeep down the river, went to look tbe matter np. - He it now probably safe at work and Lis friends need not worry longer.

Great Anxiety lt.Cheyenne, Wyo., April 17. Great

anxiety is felt here by the friends of theimprisoned stockmen and by the stateauthorities over the sitoation in Johnsoncounty. The orders of Govei nor Barbour,directing that the captured stockmen atFort McKlnney be brought to Douglas,and his order that Sheriff Angus turnover the four prisoners he is holding tothe military authorities served to arouseintense excitement throughout northernWyomiog, the small ranchmen believingthe invaders will be spirited out of reaohof the county authorities, and by somelegal joggling escape trial or punishmenttor killing Kay and Champion, l he governor disclaims any intention of aidingthe prisoners to escape punishment, andsays tbey will be turned oyer to the ciyilauthorities as soon as adequate protectioncan be given. The wires went downsince the orders to have the prisonersbrought to Douglass were sent, and newsof the governor s intentions to ultimatelyturn the prisoners over to the civil authorities has not reached northern Wyomiog. The latest information says theranchmen are arming and congregatingat Buffalo. Evident intention preventingthe prisoners from being taken out ofthe country. . If they can be convictedthe stockmen will be dealt with accord-ing to law. It is is generally believedthey will disperse to their homes, and noviolence will be offered the captives. If,however, tbey become convinced thestockmen are to escape legal punishmentserious trouble will result, and the coon-tr- y

will be placed uuder martial law.General John li. .Brooke, at Umaha,

commanding this department, has telegraphed Governor Barbour that he hadbeen instructed by the secretary" of warto deliver him the fortv odd cattlemennow imprisoned at Fort McKinney. " No-word has been received here from Johnson connty. and it is thought the rostlerehave cut the wires to Bunalo. Snortshave been made to get dixpuich 'sthrough, but they have failed. GovernorBarbour is much alarmed and is anxiousto get communication with Fort McKioney. It is now generally admitted thatthe removal of prisoners from McKinneyto Douglass would be-- very hbzardous.It is certain the rustler will capturetbem on the way, and every hour adds amore strious aspect to the. situation.Governor Barbour has not yet notifiedGeneral Brooker whether he will receivethe prisoners now at Fort McKinney.Public sentiment is turning in favor ofthe rusilers.

The People are Angry.Buffalo, Wytf., April 15. This morn

ing the sheriff demanded the prisonersfrom the commanding officer, who re-

fused, as bis orders are to bold and protect tbem until further instructions. Thecounty residents are remaining in tbecity. Tbe bodies of Champion and Raywere brought in town today, and wereviewed at the undertaker's.' Tbe formerhas twenty-eig- ht bullets ia bis body,while the remains of Ray were unrecognizable, tbe legs and bead being entirelyconsumed by lire, leaving only tbecharred and roasted trunk. The sight ofthis causes tbe most intense feelingagainst tbe prisoners, but no trouble isfeared unless it is obvious that justicewill be defeated. Tom Keze. who is fore-man of tbe Murphy Cattle Company,said Fay Parker, who is manager of thatoutfit, said tbe prisoners bad no fears,that tbey bad any quantity of money andcould boy themselves oat, and that Par -

ker today received a letter trom astranger offering $5000 if needed. Tbeprisoners appear neither sorry nor worried,about their crimes. Tbe only anxiousidea tbe people have, is that the'mvadershave so much wealth at their commandand so many friends at court, tbey willescape : tbe punishment deserved. Thespecial guardhouse resembles a hotel orsummer resort. The prisoners sun them-selves on tbe piazza, board at tbe Canteenrestaurant, and are escorted to and fromtheir meals by guards.

'' a' Kew Brazilian Kepnbile. .

New York, April 17. Tbe BeralcCicorrespondent at Bio de Janeiro, Brazil,cables the following: "President Peixotto is sending two expeditions to putdown tbe insurrection is tbe state ofMatto Grosso, which - bas now assumedsuch serious proportions as to flightentbe authorities. One expedition goes byrailway. Tbe soldiers, after being con-veyed to tbe end of the route, will have avast deal of bard tramping ahead of tbembefore tbey reach Cayvia. The otherexpedition goes by sea on one of tbe government transports. - It is expected thattbe land and sea forces will combine inthe attack. It will take from ten-- totwelve days for them to reach their destination. Cayvia ia well defended, andthe revolutionists are reported to be wellarmed and organized and to have for-midable artillery. President Peixotto isusing tbe strongest measures at bis command in suppressing tne insurrection,and it is not believed here that MattoGrosso can long bold ont against the gov-ernment. Tbe population of the state issmall compared with its vast area. Itsresidents are nearly all negroes and In-

dians. Tbe difficulty in reaching it anddisturbances in other parts of Brazil mayprolong tbe struggle, but that tbe newrepublic will eventually be blotted out,seems to be a foregone conclusion..

JL Darlnc Jail Break.Chehalis, Wash., April 15. A daring

jail break was accomplished .about midnight, by which two prisoners held onserious charges secved their liberty. HC Place, who has been a trusty andgiven great liberty by tbe jailor, secureda revolver in some unknown way. WhenDeputy Sheriff Frank Carpenter made tbelate rounds be held bim up, compelledbim to open the doors, and then with tbeassistance of the other prisoner, IsadorJoseph, bound and gagged him, and thetwo made their escape. After an hourand a half's bard work, Carpenter liberated himself and gave tbe alarm. Place washeld for a nameless crime committed atCentralis in January, and Joseph is tbebogus newspaper man who bad recentlyforged several checks at Peel, this county.Joseph bad every prospect of being liberated in a day or two tnrougn tbe assist-ance of friends who came forward tomake good tbe losses of bis victims.Sheriff Barnett has half a dozen deputieslooking for the fugitives. .

.' The Promised land.

Oklahoma City, April 17. It is estimated that 25,000 people were today toe

ing tbe line of tbe Cheyenne and Arapahoe reservation, making ready for tbecharge Tuesday. Filers will have advantage over settlers, as tbey will beready to make declaration before tbesettlers, can possibly reach desirablelands. - Tbe Santa Fe is preparing to runnumerous trains into tbe reservation tbeday of tbe opening, and the ' race forthose on horseback and in wagons willbe a long one.. Merchants, with loads ofiroods of all conceivaole kinds, will be onband, and a few hours alter tbe openingwill be doing business at tbe county seat.Thousands have already given np all

hope of getting homes and will leave atonce. Many hope to be able to parcnaseclaims cheap from the squatters. AtKingfisher tjie land receiver bas decidedtbe line formed four weeks ago bas nolegal status, and there is serious talk oiforming another line. In this event,trouble will follow and possibly bloodshed.

Wilson Rourghly Handled.Washington. April 16 Representative

Wilson, of Washington, was roughlybandied by several watchmen and mes-

sengers at tbe bureau of printing andengraving this evening. He entered thebuilding after hours and was proceedingupstairs without having made himselfknown. He was remonstrated with by awatchman, but still persisted, and didnot disclose bis identity. Tbe watchmangrasped tbe member from Washingtonwith the intention of retarding bis pro-gress, when the congressmen, in trueWestern style, dealt tbe watchman a blowthat sent bim reeling down tbe stairs.Several watchmen and messengers thenseized upon the Western congressmen,and before the . tussle was over be received a pretty severe drubbing. - Mr.Wilson succeeded finally in reaching Su-

Grace, whose recent report of an inter- -

view with Mr. Blaine attracted much at-

tention, today reiterated bis statementtbat Blaine will accept the nominationfor president should it be made, and saysbe makes the stctement without fear ofauthoritative contradiction. He says Mr.Blaine in accenting tbe nomination coulddo so in perfect harmony with bis, letterot declination; tbat be only declined tobecome a candidate by reason of .beingin the cabinet of one who is a candidate,and because of bis desire for continuedharmony in tbe cabinet, in view ot tbemany questions of importance pendingaffecting our relations with a number offoreign nations. Mr.' Grace calls uponthe admirers of Blaine to go to Minne-apolis and demand bis nomination.

Rnstler In Favor.Douglas, Wyo, April 18. The feeling

of prominent citizens in this section

against the Johnson county outrages isgrowing bonrly more intense, as tbe lealfacts of the atrocities become more fullyknown. Although Converse and Johnsoncounties are adjacent to each other, thecounty seats, Douglaa and Buffalo are150 miles apart. The people ot Douglasare as intensely interested, boweyer. asthose of'Jobnson county. All tbe stockmen in tbe mob are well known bere andseveral of tbem reside in this county.Frank Wolcott is the leader and F. C. Irvine, his lieutenant, is tbe state live stockcommissioner. Tbey are both residentsof Converse county, Wolcott has not ahoof ot stock in Johnson connty, and wasnever wronged by a settler up there.Tbe sentiment of ths people here is tbattbe Fort McKinney prisoners can neveragain reside as citizens in Converse, John-son or Natrona counties, for if Wolcott orany of bis followers should set' foot iathis section, except as prisoners, tbeywould be shot down, and there are notofficers enough in Wyoming to protecttbem for a day. Tbe settlers wilt protecttbem until tbey Can have an impartialtrial In Jounson county, and there is nofear of violence if Governor Barber keepshis hands off.
