THE DALLES WEEKLY . CHRONICLE SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 3, 1898. TOUSG BRIDE JUMPED IN THE WILLAMETTE Rescued by Frank Ackerseii v a Longshoreman. HER IDENTITY A MYSTERY Kescuer Paid Not to Divnlge Her Name or Address She and Her Hus Husband Came From the East Nothing More known. Portland, Sept. 1. The Evening Tel egram has the following: Splash! - And a woman went over the Couth street dock at 8 :45 last night. An instant later Frank Ackersen, a longshoreman, was in the river, ho'd ing the woman's head above the water, and she struggling violently to free her self from his grasp. Ackereen succeeded ' in saving the woman without assistance, as he bad "bat a few yards to swim. As he was about to request another man to ring up the central station, a drag, containing a man and woman, drove rapidly to the spot. "Is there a woman in the river?" in quired the driver excitedly. "There has been, but I got her out,"' J replied Ackersen. "So you would disgrace ns, you hor rible girl !" replied the driver as he got a trlimnee of the shiverinz form of the woold-be self-murderer. "John, do not come near ne," shriek ed the youn . woman, "1 am weary of all this." r J Bat "John" denied her request, and f he, with Ackersen's assistance, placed her in the drag and the party drove cff. Ackersen, who is well-known as a temperate and reliable man, refuses to divulge the location of the residence of the dramatis personae of this drama ; bat he in a spirit of much delight this morning related that he received fifty dollars for his trouble and promised to keey a silent tongue. . At police court, however, the fact was learned this afternoon that while the drag belonged to a prominent family here, the wonld-be suicide and the man, who was her husband, are strangers. They are on the coast spending a most - singular honeymoon, judging from the night's events. While the names uf this couple are known to several members of the police department, they decline to divulge them for publication. It is said that the conple has been married six months since which time the bride has devel oped dangeron3 signs of suicidal mania. This is the third time she has attempt ed to take her life since they came West. They are domiciled with friends on Nob Hill, but beyond that nothing could be ascertained respecting their identity. BURNED IN KOBE HARBOR American Ship "Baring Brothers" De stroyed With Three Thousand Tons of Matting. Vancouver, B. C, Sept. 1. The . steamer Empress of China brings" the following Oriental advices: The American ship Baring Brothers, from New York, was burned in the har bor of Kobe, Angust 10th. It is inti mated that the fire was of incendary or igin. When the vessel arrived at Kobe from Yokohama six of her crew were in Irons. Four were soon afterward liber . ated. ' - The United States consul at Shanghai is inquiring into the most recent anti foreign outrage. Messrs. Chapin and and Alexander, of the international al liance mission, while on their way np the Yuen river with their houseboat, were atoned at Hongkiang, Ilnan. The boat was smashed and then bnrned by the mob. The two travelers barely es- eaped with their lives on a Chinese gun boat. The officials did nothing to pro tect them. At Hong Kong they say there is grave reason to fear that the steam launch Wiogafoo, which flies the American flap; and which left on July 2J for Cavite, has foundered. - : " . '. The Corean government has 'estab lished a land survey office, with a view to surveying the land in the empire and examining the position of the roads, bridges and fortifications. A contract has been signed between the United States minister and the Corean govern ment to engage an American engineer for carrying out the work. It is stated that the Corean govern ment will grant Japan a railroad char ter between Saoul and Foaan.if the Jap anese government will surrender a num ber of Corean refugees who are now in that country. The annexation fever has spred to Japan, which recently raised the flag of the "rieing sun" over a small island sonth of Japan. The island is said to have been discovered by an" American captain and marked on the chart as Marcus island. A small colony has been sent to cultivate the island. The indemnity paid by the Hawaiian government has been received, and its disposal will be shortly decided on. Af ter claims of compensation by the emi gration companies have been paid, the balance will be appropriated to defray the expenses incurred by the "govern ment in the matter. The Japanese legations at London and at Washington will be raised to the rank of embassies. HAWAIIAN PORTS AS USUAL Will Be Open For the Entry of Foreign Vessels Pending a Revision of the United States Laws. San Fbakcisco, Sept. 1. T. H. Good man, of the Southern Pacific Company, is in receipt of a ruling from the treas ury department on thequestion of wheth er or not foreign vessels will be allowed a clearance for any port or ports in Ha waii and to enter and land their cargos a't said ports, now that tho islands are American territory. Tho Southern Pacific Company is in terested in the matter to the extent of its interest in the Occidental & Oriental Steamship Company, which is operating the steamers Gaelic, Doric, Coptic and Belgic, between here and the Orient by way of Honolulu. All are chartered British vessels, and under the treasury regulations cannot engage in a coasting business between American ports. The ruling of the treasury department settles this question. The company will be allowed to continue miming its ves sels between here and Honolulu nntil new laws for the islands are enacted by congress. TRAMPS OPENED THE SWITCH Passenger Train on New York, Ontario and Western Wrecked Three Per sons Killed, Eight Injured. Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. 1. A special to the Herald from Fulton says: Passenger train No. 5 on the New York, Ontario & Western railroad, was wrecked at Ingalls, crossing, near this village, early this morning.

The deadlock over the appointment of the members of the peace commission continues. The cabinet sat this evening in concert, the queen regent presiding. Senor Sa gasta, the premier, made a statement as to foreign policy, referring particularly to the disarmament . proclamation of Emperor Nicholas. Lietenant-General Correa, minister of war, read a dispatch from General Rios, acting governor gereral of the Spanish territory in the Philippine islands, announcing that he had acceded to ' Admiral Dewey's re request to open Philippine ports, subject to ratification; by the Madrid govern ment. . Senor Sagasta, according to El Heraldo is trying to persuade the Dakeof Tetuan now leader of the dissident conserva tives, to join the peace commission.

WOULD BALK THE SERVICE General Shafter Arrives at Camp Wi- koff, But Has Not Taken Charge The President Will Make In vestigatio ns. Washington, Sept. 1. Ssrgeon-Gen eral Sternberg toduy sent the lollowing letter to a New York medical publica tion which had made inquiries ot him conoerning the conduct of the war with reference to the medical department, and'CFpecially about the subject of hav ing an immoaiate investigation of his bureau. He says : "I am ready nt any moment for a com plete investigation with reference to my administration of the affairs of the med ical department, but the war depart ment is not disposed to make snch an investigation as the result of sensational newspaper articles. There is at present an evident craze to criticise, without re gard for truth or justice. I have no doubt there will be a congressional in vestigation into the conduct of the war, but I do not feel at liberty at present to insist upon an investigation for my own vindication, because it is contrary to the general interests of the service. It would be wrong for me to give up all the important official work which at pres ent almost overwhelms me, for the pur pose of devoting myself to a presenta tion of the facts relating to my admin istration. "It would make it necessary to take clerks away from their daily tasks in or der to look np the documentary evidence on file in my office, and in the meantime import matters would necceeearily be neglected and the eick in all parts of the country would suffer. It would make it necessary to call upon the med-. ical officers, who are now urgently need ed for the care ot the sick in the various camps and hospitals, to come to Wash ington as witnesses, and all this to sat isfy the clamor of irresponsible newspa per reporters. There has been no offi cial campaign with referenca to an ad ministration of the medical depart ment." - STRIKERS RESORT TO VIOLENCE President and Superintendent of the Springside Mines Taken Prisoners St. Louis, Sept. 1. A special to the Post dispatch from Pana, 111., says: Six hundred striking miners this afternoon seized David J. Overholt and Lewis Overholt, president and superin tendent, respectively, of the Springside mines. The. two officials were taken from a buggy by the mob and carried in the direction ot the mines. Nothing is known of their fate. f Rev. Dr. Millard, a minister, made a plea to the miners to release the Over holts, and was knocked on the head with a revolver.

There were no roads that a wagon train could use. My com rad and myself had tbe good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack-train before we left Tampa, and I know in four cases it absolutely eaved life."
