ASTORIA PROSPECTS.
Tlie Old Town Fully Awale to a Sense
- " of tne Sitnation.
REACHING THE FINAL FOCUS.
Will Have a Railroad on a Contract
Which May be Signed Today.
SECRECY NEEDFUL IO 8UCCKS.
Mistaken
E. L.
as to Portland Influence
Dwyer Complimented
Minor Mention.
Portland, March 8. It is now believ
ed and firmly settled that "Astoria is to
have a railroad." Don't qnote this and
put it under the heading "chestnuts."
Astoria must now be recognized, and
she will be. If one proposition does not
go through, the next will; The people
of that city have become worked up to
the fact that a railroad will make a great
city of the place. A Telegram repre
sentative visited the town yesterday and
learned these facts in Astoria. .The peo
ple, confidently believe that it is to take
the place of Puget souud, or rather be to
Portland what the sound now is to Port
land. They, or some of them, think
that were a railroad built the wheat
would, instead of going to Tacoma and
Seattle, be shipped from Astoria, and
not only that this would be shipped,
but that now coming to Portland would
come to Astoria and be shipped from
her docks. The capitalists believe, as
well as the general public of that city,
that it is the mutual wheat-shipping
port of the Northwest. The committee
of ten recently appointed is working in
a quiet way, but its work will tell when
made public. The chairman is working
indefatigably for a road. Besides tliKv
the trustees are moving in harmony
THK COMMITTEE OF TEN.
Something will come of it. That is
one thing which is very certain. There
are now several propositions to build a
road from Portland to the city on the
Lower Columbia, one of which is occu
pying the attention of the committee
and trustees. It is expected that a con
tract will be signed in a few days. The
Telegram is in possession of the exact
stipulations of the subsidy and contract,
but cannot at present make them public.
Both the committee and the trustees are
pledged to secrecy.- Other propositions
have failed to come to a head and it may
be thought that it was on account of un
due publicity. In' this case no such
matter will interfere. It has been said
that the Dwyer proposition failed on
this account. At any rate, the
proposition now being considered
will not fail for the same reason. Astoria
has a most magnificent harbor. The
people want to utilize it. They do not
see what can keep the wheat of the
valley from coming directly into their
port. They say, and it has been the be
lief of every railroad man who has
looked into the matter, that it can be
done. One of the most confident of
Astoria's wealthy citizens is
EX-MAVOB SAM ELMORE.
He is sure of all these things and has
believed them for years. He has given
time and property to the work. A great
.percentage of his land both within and
without the town has gone toward a
subsidy. There is one belief which is
'prevalent among the people of that city.
It is that to E. L. Dwyer is due the pres
ent situation. Nearly every railroad
proposition, and there are several ; that
has been made to Astorians has come at
least indirectly, if not directly, through
his efforts. It was said yesterday by
many of the prominent men that were
Mr. Dwyer to come in at the last
moment with cash to build a road, that
is, just at the signing of a contract,
everything would be dropped and his
matter would be considered.' The As
torians fully appreciate the services Mr.
firmly believe, and they probably are
much mistaken in the belief, that Port
land is at present not in sympathy with
a road to Astoria. It was explained to
them that this was the position of some
well-known bankers here some years
ago, and, in fact, may yet be their be
lief. They seem to think that because
this city has not interested itself finan
cially in the attempt to raise funds for
me roaa mat it is antagonistic 10 one.
Should this contract, as expected, be
signed, great developments may be
looked for iu the future.
Diaagreable and Dictatorial.
Chicago, March 7. Dr. Henery M.
Scudder, who is charged with murdering
his inoiber-in-law, and who ip confined
in the detention hospital pending exam
ination as to his sanity, seized a heavy
chair yesterday afternoon and witha
powerful swing brought it down on the
defenseless head of a lunatic. The
victim dropped as though he had been
shot, and the doctor was proceeding to
kill him when the attendants rushed up
and seized him. It required the com-
bined streneth of three men to disarm
the physician and put him in his cell
When asked why he assaulted the luna
tic he said, "Voices told me to do it, be
cause the man was in league with my
wife and the others against me." His
eon and father called to see him this
morning.; He . seemed pleased to see
his son. but would not speak to his
father, who, he said, was in league with
the people who were trying to ruia him.
From the doctor's conversation it seems
that-he considers that he is a victim of a
hugb conspiracy which began with his
arrest for irregularities in the insurance
matter. He appears to class the Dun ton
family as the chief conspirators. A
young woman who has done considerable
work as a typewriter for Dr. Scudder,
says : "I have had plenty of opportun
ities to study him, and 1 believe he is
perfectly sane. - He is a smart man, but
inclined to be disagreeable and dicta
torial." : -'
Tne First Battle.
Washington-, March 7. The first bat
tle over the silver bill today. A resolu

sideration was read, when the silver men
and antis locked horns over the ruling

oi tne speaser; mai, notwuusuuiuiug
the journal had not been read, business
could be done. Some warm language
was used, but the Speaker was sustained
by a vote of 194 yeas, nays 81. Tracy
moved to recommit the resolution with
instructions to the committee on rules to
chance the date of consideration of the
silver bill from March 22 to December
12. The motion to recommit was de
feated yeas 70, nays 202. The previous
question was then ordered on the resolu
tion without further objection.
A Will Contest Settled.
Bridgeport, Conn., March 8. The
suit begun in April, 1888, contesting the
will of the late Benjamin Berkeley
Hotchkiss, the widely-known inventor
of the Hotchkiss rifle and cannon, has
been settled, and the case has been with
drawn from court. In the amount in
volved and in 'complications resulting
the case was perhaps one of the greatest
of the kind ever brought in this state
The litigants are the brothers and sisters
of the dead inventor. By agreement
the terms of the settlement are withheld
from the public.
Foster Made a Bad Break.
London, March 8. Some of the Eng
lish papers have' reproduced the sub
stance of the interview, with Secretary
Foster, cabled to New York, in which the
expression "clam-mouthed" as applied
to Irish emmigrants created much dis
cussion. Mr. foster reiterated his state
ment that the expression was not his
"I used," said he, "the familiar phrase
'flannel-mouthed' to denote araweinmi
grant, whose children become assimilat
ed with good American type.
A Mew Comet Discovered.
Rochester, N. Y., March 7. Professor
Swift, of tne observatory here discovered
a bright telescope comet this morning at
daylight. As read from the circles it
was in right ascension 183 :59 deg., de
gree of declination south 31 :20. It is
large and for a telescope comet very
bright, it can be seen with an opera
glass moving slowly in an easterly direc
tion. No tail is visible "with the big
telescope. -
"Jonah and the Whale."
Olvmpia, Wash., March 8. C. B.
Reynolds, secretary of the Washington
secular union, has applied to state super
intendent Bryan to reinstate in the pub
lic' school at Davenport, a boy who was
suspended because he recited a sacrili
geous poem entitled "Jonah and the
Whale." Supt. Bryan replies that he
can only act in such cases upon appeals
from decisions of county superintend
ents taken within the statutory time,
and that the parties interested must
look to the courts for redress.
Why Teller Opposes.
Denver, Colo., March 8. Senator
Teller's opposition to the renomination
of President Harrison, he says is simply
because he don't agree with him on his
financial policy as applied to silver, and
not because of any personal feelings. He
trusts that Colorado will send a delega
tion to Minneapolis who will vote for a
candidate favoring the free and unlim
ited coinage of silver.
Sunday Law Fight.
Pittsburg, March 7. Robert McClure,
agent of the law and order league, who

Buffalo, March 7. It is asserted by
Francis D. Locke, that Grover Cleveland
expresses himself as unalterably' opposed
to the methods employed by the Hill
faction, and while he is careful not
express his leelings to any one connected
with the press, he does not hesitate
denounce the February convention in no
uncertain language, to his - intimate
friends. Mr. Locke said tonight the ex-
president not long ago said to him he
was in thorough sympathy with the pro
testing May convention to be held in
Syracuse, and asserted that in his opin
ion it was tho only wav in which the
democrats of New York could properly
manifest their opposition to the methods
eraploved by Hill's friends. - "Mr
Cleveland said to me- a few days ago,
said Mr. Locke, "I am not, a candidate
For the presidential nomination, but
the' convention sees fit to take action in
my favor, I cannot refuse to accept
This statement, coming as it does from a
bosom friend of the Ex-President, is re
garded as correctly representing his
position. '
Significance of the Silver Issue.
Washington, March 8. The eilver
men made a great inning yesterday, and
men in both parties who have been hop
ing it would be postponed - until after
the elections are convinced the issue
must be disposed of by the house before
the date oi the national convention
The free-coinage men of both parties are,
of course, highly elated. The gold men
in the democratic party are filled with
dismal forebodings, while the anti-free
coinage republicans, who comprise 85
per cent of the republican membership
in the house, are disposed to view the
situation with complacency. It is now
possible that the presidential election
will turn upon the question of free coin
age of silver. The issue was squarely
made by the vote to fix a day for a vote
on the Bland bill. The eastern demo
ciats mustered all their strength against
the report of the committee on rules and
could command only 84 votes. Ten of
these were republicans. The vote to fix
a day to consider the bill was 190, five
sixths of it democratic.
Portland Upside Down. i
Portland, Maine, March 7. The elec
tion here was a great triumph for the
democrats. They gained control of
the city government by electing a ma
jority of the city council and a mayor.
The common council gives the democrats
15 out of 28 votes and practically turns
out all the city officers. The city is
turned upside down tonight and the
democrats are parading the streets with
bands and torches. This is the first
time in years the democrats have gained
control of the city government, electing
a majority council on joint ballot, and
the mayor. -- .
Cen. Alger Coming.
Detroit, March 8. Gen. Alger will
leave for California this evening on
purely private business. Being asked
to say something in regard to his atti
tude towards the suggestion of bis name
for the republican presidential nomina
tion, he said: "Until recently I have
been undecided as to whether I would
enter the contest for the nomination,
but in view of the expressions from
earnest ' republicans throughout the
country, I have concluded to enter the
Held."
Stock Breeders Association.
Walla Walla, March 9. A call has
beep issued for a convention of stock
breeders, to be held at Ellensburg on
on the 22d to perfect a state organization
of live stock breeders. There are many
matters of importance to be considered, j
One member from the Big Bend country i
says he will endeavor to have the .asso
ciation take measures to prevent the
cattle stealing from which so many
breeders have suffered in-eastern Wash
ington of late years. ' This is only one of
the many subjects that will need atten
tion.
Timothy Hopkins Withdraws.
Salem, Mass., March 7. Judge Eiidi
cott, of counsel for contestant in the

shoe factories in the city are closed this

" - A High Stepping Duehess. -
London, March 8. There is a decided
.-. (-disagreement of the most intense' char
acter just at present between the Duch
ess of Edinburgh and the queen.: The
duchess was delighted to hold draVing
rooma this season in place of the - queen
and the Princess of .Wales. The usual
presentation lists were submitted to the
queen, and were found to contain sev
eral Americans. Suddenly the duchess
declined to preside at the receptions un
less the lists were also submitted to her
for approval, and she positively refused
to accept any Americans except those
who . belong to the diplomatic circle.
This determination caused much' sur
prise, and an explanation will probably
be demanded. The duchess is also fur
ious against her hushand, who favors
the suggested union of their eldest
daughter, Marie, with the Marquis of
Blandford, the Duke of Marlborough's
heir. She says that no child of a niece
of the Russian emperor shall mate with
the beggarly descendant of Jack Church
hill. The duke, on the contrary, thinks
it is an excellent match for bis daughter,
in view of the English dukedom and the
superb heirlooms at . Blenheim palace.
The Duchess of Marlborough is delighted
at the prospect of becoming stepmother
to a niece of the -czar. She says she
will leave all her savings to the Marquis
of Blandford if a marriage occurs.
When this declaration was made to the
Duchess of Edinburgh, she exclaimed:
"The insolent woman ! One thing is
certain, my daughter shall never know
her." Prim-ess Marie inherits one-third
of her mother's great fortune.

Exciting Election In Sacramento.
Sacramento, Cal., March 8. The mu
nicipal election took place today and was
close and exciting. The new ballot re
ceived another trial, and the people were
pleased with it. It worked to perfection,
and the political workers had little op
portunity for the usual methods of cor
ruption. The principal fight was for
chief of police. John S. Rodgers, an
independent, was elected over D. W
Higgans, republican, with a plurality of
112. Just after the polls closed a San
Francisco politician called "Big Neck'
Smith shot and killed Patrick Brannigan,
a plasterer, during a quarrel about the
election. Smith shot Brannigan twice,
and as the latter fell Smith placed the
pistol to his head and fired the third
shot. Brannigan died instantly-.

come. While Claggett has been de
feated in the senatorial contest, he is
still a verv prominent man in Idaho
politics. Claggett men here say that,
now the contest has been settled they
will join with Dubois' supporters for the
good of the party.
Is Chandler "Loyal?"
Washington, March 7. Senator Chan
dler is somewhat pronounced in the
matter of the candidacy of Ex-Senator
Blair. He says: "New Hampshire
will be found in earnest in presenting
his name at the convention, if the
strength we expect from the south be
forthcoming. Ex-Senator Blair is our
candidate, and we expect he will prove
formidable candidate.

Nw York, March 8. Jay Gould has
given $25,000 to the university of the city
of New York. The gift was made a few
days after he gave his check for $10,000
to the Presbyterian church, extension
committee. It was Jay Gould's .desire
thatthe gift should be kept a secret. The
Rev. Dr. John Paxton, the pastor of the
church which Mr. Gould and his family
attend, let out the fact last night unin
tentionally to a reporter." When pressed
for further information concerning it, he
said the matter was a secret. Chancellor
McCracuen confirmed later the fact that
the gift had been made.
Mr. Springer's Illness.
Washington, March 8. Mr. Springer's
important chairraanship'of the ways and
means committee is practically at an end.
Dr. Vincent, who came from Springfield,
111., to take charge of Mr.- Springer's
case, said today that, even should his
patient begin to rally at once and contine
to improve from this time on, it would
De impossible tor turn to attend to any
business for the next two months. - Dr,
Vincent says that under the most favor
able circumstances Mr. Springer could
not leave the house within the next thre
weeks. After that the doctor will insist
that Mr. Springer go to Fortress Monroe,
or some other health resort, for a stay of
four or five weeks. According to Dr.
Vincents program, therefore, Mr. Spring
er has practically concluded his services
as chairman of the ways and means com
mittee for this session of congress, for
the tariff bills will be entirely disposed
of by the end of April.

The Big Can Factory.
Washington, March 8. The senate
committee on coast defenses has made a
report to accompany the bill reported
last week. The committee says that, in
view of the difference of opinion exist
ing as to the exact place on the Pacific
coast where the factory should be lo
cated, the committee is of the opinion
that its location should be left to the de
cision of a board of competent experts,
to be appointed by the president, as
provided for in thejbill. It appears from
the statement of the chief of ordinance
that if there be no large establishment
of this kind on the Pacific coast there
will be heed of two small establishments
for repairs, one to be located, at Benicia,
and the other further north, on the
Columbia river, or on Puget sound. The
bill appropriates $1,000,000 for the erec
tion of suitable buildings, the purchase
of suitable machinery and other mater
ials. The making of a big gun requires
the beet kind of steel, and the material
has to be very carefully made. It can be
made on this coast by converting fuel
into gas. Oregon has the metal frae
from sulphur and phosphorus, and as
soon as a market for 'billets' is created
such as the government has sought we
shall have no difficulty in handling all
the crude product that comes.
Two Sources of Power.
Indianapolis, March 9. The Jenne
Eleotric company today shipped to Mich
igan a fifty horse-power motor to be used
in the submarine torpedo-boat which is
being built for the United States by
Chicago capitalists. It will be tested by
the government in about three weeks.
It is cigar-shaped, and has two sources of
motive power, steam and electricity, the
first generating the power for the second.
In case of emergency, a storage-battery
system will operate the motor when the
vessel wishes to submerge. The failure
of nearly eleven submarine torpedo-boats
has been- due to the inability bf the in
ventor to keep the cigar point from fast
ening in the bottom, but in this point
the submersion is accomplished by.water
ballast, and, so far, the horizontal po
sition of the vessel has been maintained
in several experiments.
Chill's New Cabinet. .
Valparaiso, March 9. It is expected
that arrangements will ' be perfected
today for forming a new cabinet. A
meeting of the liberal members of con
gress was held Monday night to disenss
the situation. It is probable that
Eduardo Matte will be minister of for
eign afiairs and Augustine Edwards
minister of finance, as Valder Vergera,
who held the latter office, will not accept
the portfolio again.
