Spanish Captures,
Dec. 26. A New York; World spe

had an armed encounter with a Span
ish natal vessel.
Dcd. 26. Washington authorities
declare a plan of reform for Cuba and
Porto Rico is natured by Spanish of
ficials. Cuba is to have a congress
with entire control of law-making for
the Island.
Dec. 26. The New York Herald
prints a story of Macco's death and
also of young Gomez's death written
by Dr. Zertucha, who claims both
wereassussinated by Cuban's jealous
ofjMaceo. General Paluia at New York
declares the story Is an invention In
which Zertucha seeks to weaken the
cause of Cuba and ingratiate himself
with the Spaniards.
NEw York, Dec. 26 A special

BURGLARY.
Two Salem Residences Entered An Un
desired Santa Clause.
Usually Santa Clause very closely
follows that Scriptural quotation, "It
Is more blessed to give than to re
ceive." but the Santa Clause who
visited the residences of A. T. Gil
bert, on Marion and Water street,
and II. E. Chlpmau, at No. 53 South
Twelfth streets, on Christmas morn
ing has discovered a more modern
version of the quotation as follows.
"It Is more blessed to take, tliau to
give, which he not' only preaches but
also practices when an opportunity
presents itself.
Shortly after 4 o'clock Friday tiiorn
Intr. the residence of W. A. Moores,
on South Twelfth street, was entered
by a housebreaker. The residence Is
occupied by Mr. and Mrs. II. E. Chip
man. About 4 o'clock Mrs. Chlpman
was aroused liv some one In the room.
She could see a man about apparently
having a cloak over his head. Think
ing it it was probably her sister,
Miss Emma Elgin, who resides with
her, Mrs. Chlpman exclaimed "merry
Christmasl" but received no answer.
Instead, the figure moved slowly into
an nriinlnini? room. Bv this time Mr.
Chlpman was aroused, and being In
formed by his wife of the prcsenco of
some one in the room, and thinking It
was probably his brother, Harry, who
Is an early riser, greeted the stranger
with "A merry Christmas," but was
astounded to receive no answer.
Slowly the figure retreated, and was
soon lost to sight In the rear of the
llOUbC.
Nothing more was thought of the
matter until tho household was astir,
when the rear door was found wldo
open. This discovery solved the mys
tery. The only thing missing thus
far. was a ladles' dark blue Chinchilla
Jacket, belonging to Mrs, Chlpman.
Fortunately, a purse and a gold watcri
had been removed from tho lacket
Thursday evening, before retiring,
otherwise they would have.bcen stolen
also. Mr. Chinman Is positive ho se
curely locked tho house before retir
ing, and the burglar or burglars gained
an entrance to the building through
tho back door by means of a latch
key.
The residence of Banker A. T. Gil
bert, at tho foot of Marlon street, was
also successfully broken Into at an
early hour Friday morning. Tho
burglar gained entrance to tho build
ing through tho basoment, and made
his exit in the same manner. Soon
after 5 o'clock Mr. Gilbert became
aware of the presence of a stranger
in tho room and, reaching to tho side
of tho bed, turned on tho elcctrlo
lights. The noise occasioned by turn
ing on the lights, together with the
sudden Illumination of all tho apart
ments, badly frightened tho burglars.
They made an exit In anything but a
graceful manner. Investigation
showed that a good hat and valuable
silver spoon were missing. A costly
set of sllverwaic and many valuable
Christmas presents were also lying In
an exposed place, but tho burglar was
evidently frightened away before they
had obtained everything they desired.
These house breakings seem to be a
continuation by tho parties that are
commltttlng the depredations in our
city.

The 1897 Crop Conracted For.
One Thousand Bales Sold at a High
Figure.
To hop or not to hop Is no longer a
question In 'Oregon. Contracts were
closed tho last 24 hours for one
thousand bales 1897 crop at ten cents
a pound.
The Journal Is able to present
figures today that arc conclusive to
tho effect that Oregon hops arc now a
fancy artlulo In great demand In the
world's market. Ilrewers used to ask
for Washington hops. Now they ask
first forOregons. Responsible parties
who grow a good article will have no
difficulty In contracting at from 8 to 10
cents a pound for from ono to thrco
years In advance. These hops can bo
sold tobrowcrs In advance, as Oregon
has nothing more to fear from Wash
ington or California.. Tho hop crop
In many parts of those states has been
abandoned as a staple crop.
Tho season for 1890 Is about wound
up for Oregon. There arc not to ex
ceed IGOO.balcs lnlhe hands of growers
with less than 1000 bales of the crop
in growers hands in Washington. 1
1897, C0NTKAOT8
were closed today, at 10 cents a pound
in tho balo with the following parties
by the Horst, & Lachmuud Co., of this
city:
Wni. Holmes 00,000
Al Pettyjohn 30,000
F. Levy 25,000
Pacific Hop Co 20,000
II. C. Clanfield 12,t00
Craven & Bunyard ..- 12,000
" This Is a total of 189,000 pounds and
Is a very encouraging fact for hop
grower. This Is tho first tlmo In
three years that dealers have been
disposed to pay such a high flguro for
future delivery. Growers should not
bo excited by theso contract prices
and endeavor to ralso too largo an
acreage, but pay more attention to
producing a better quality, as It Is
this latter factor that prompts
dealers to contract Oregon hops at
such rcnumeratlvo prices. It 1b gen
erally conceded that tho Oregon hopw
for the past year surpassed all others
grown In tho United States Tho fact
that they sold for higher prices In the
London market than any other Amer
ican hop Is proof of this statement.
A leading buyer said today:
"Contracting last year was at 0 and
7 cents, but fow contracts at that fig
ure extended to 1897. Oregon hop
growers have seen their worst days for
awhile. Tho only foe they have to
fear Is tho European grower. With
cheaper labor and greater skill, a big
crop In Germany and thoso countries
Is tho only thing that can hold down
Oregon hops. Tho grower who will
concentrate his energies to putting
up ten to twenty acres of a gllt-cdgo
article will not miss It very much.
The hopgrower who neglects cultiva
tion and puts up an Inferior article
might as well consider himself out of
the race."

A Texas crltlo says: Patti Bander
