Secret of liuslness no Longer Hidden
' " by the Transcontinental Aim-elation.
J Sax Fbancisco, Sept." 14. A Chicago
"dispatch savs more traffic from that
;- point to this tarts east than west. Even
before, the present demoralized rates
. Ver'e begun by the Clipper ship compe
tition, it was cheaper to ship via New
York and the ocean than direct' west
via the all-rail lines. Since the Clipper
ship competition, ocean rates have tum
bled to a point where the elements of
time and possible damage to the high
elass of goods are the only reasons which
impel the merchants to patronize the
all-rail routes. The rates have, boeu so
.reduced by the Clipper ships that al
" most all heavy items of freight, such as
canned goods, can be shipped from San
: Francisco, "via Cape Horn and N'ew
;; York, to Chicago for less than $ 1 per 100
pounds. The western lines refuse, to
take any traffic -at less than $1, as it will
not pay expenses, consequently they
are .barred out of the traffic unless Ihere j Bremen with- only
is a pressing need of haste iu shipment, "twenty-three second-cabin passengers
Within the past month the aununt of She carried no steerage passengers,
, traffic taking this round-about route has j.Tho- Hamburg-American liner Columbia
grown enormously. Officials of the
eastern lines have noticed the increase,
but have kept quiet about it owing to
a fear of its being discovered by the
western lines; but the western lines
have thrown up their hands, and now
the Chicago merchants are making de
mands on the east-bound railroads thatl
they issue through bills of ladings to
San Francisco. It is thought, that will
be done ljefor'e the week closes, and the
anomaly will then be presented oi a
route eastward carrying freight to San
Francisco cheaper than any leading
westward.
New York, Sept. 15. Prof. Hermann
Biggs, who ia in charge of the- division
of pathology and bacteriology, has been
making bacteriological examinations of
intestinal fluids taken from fivebodies
of suspected, cases. He reported t6' the
department yesterday afternoon the re
sult of his examinations, and announced
unhesitatingly that the . cases were
Asiatic cholera without a doubt. The
names of those who died are : . Charles
McAvoy, died September 6 at 8"9 Tenth
avenue ; Mrs. Sophia Wigman, died
September 10 at 768 Eleventh avenue;
William Wigman, husband of Sophia
Wierman. died at the same address the
following day ; Minnie Levinger, child,
j died September 11 at 411 East Forty--!
sixth street ; Charlotta Beck, 30 years
old, died . yesterdaj forenoon at. 1764
Second avenue. '
All these cases was originally reported
to the officer as suspected cholera, ' and
have been under investigation by physi
cians connected with the department.
'The physicians have-been unable to
find out how the cholera was contracted
-in either of these cases. So far as they
have been able to learn, none of the
dead persons came in contact with chol
era germs. Every precaution has been
taken to prevent the spread of cholera
in these different houses. The bedding
has been burned and the houses placed
under observation.
Hereafter no more steerage passengers
will be taken on steamships in Europe
bound for this port. There has been a
suspicion that steerage passengers were
being booked for this country as second-'
cabin passengers since the president's
proclamation. If such has been the case, !
wmcn tne agents ot tne steamstiip com
panies deny 'there will be no more such
evasions. Ine Hambure-Aniencan
packet company, are paying a heavy
penalty for their carelessness with their
steerage passengers, as ma3' lie seen
from the fact that the North German
Lloyd steamship Spree left yesterday for
ten first-cabin and

The re-union is one of the largest held in

there are 20,000 surviving members of
the Army of the Cumberland, and a good

by the citizens of Chattanooga. Among
the notable characters here is "Little
Johnny Clem," the famous drummer
"boy of Chickamauga. The annual ad
dress will be delivered by General H. V.

much solicitude.

A Clever Forjcoryi
A few days ago, says a San Francisco
dispatch, Col. Guenther, in command at
Alcatraz island, received from Wash
ington papers calling for the release of
Joseph Trumpower and Clarence Ar
nold, who were privates of the Fourth
cavalry, and who assisted in the lynch
ing of Nathan Hunt at Walla Walla in
April of last year. The papers appeared
to be all right, but Col. G. happened to
notice that two figures in one1 place did
not correspond with two figures in an
other place. ' He at once telegraphed to
Washington to inquire how such a mis
take could have occurred, when he was
surprised to hear from the war depart
ment that no such papers had ever been
issued. The signature of the judge
advocate-general, Col. G. N. Lieber, had
been forged, also that of Gen. T. H.
Roger.. Evidently somebody quite
familiar with the routine of the war
department had done the work for the
release of Arnold and Trumpower. j;
Great Superiority 'of The Dalles Grapes,
Peaches, Apples, Etc., for An-,
other Local . Industry.
Professor G.; Lorant," the-.- French
chemist, who is engaged by the Wasco
CDuntv fruit growers in preparing fruit
for the worlds fair and Portland indus
trial exposition, has visited many of the
best vineyards and orchards in the
vicinity of The Dalles and has already
prepared a fine display of fruit, and will
probably visit Hood River when through
here. He" has become specially inter
ested in the particularly fine character
of the grapes in this vicinity, and while
at Mr. Sandoz ranch on Mill creek yes
terday he tasted some wine that had
been made one, year ago from grapes
raised by. Mr. Sandoz, on his ranch, and
said, notwithstanding the imperfect
method in which it bad been made, it
was excellent wine. lie gave Mr. San
doz some rules, whicht if followed, will
enable him to make an article of wine
and brandy 'Superior to any that is made
in California. The reason assigned for
the euperior character of the wine being
the greater amount of saccharine matter
and the peculiar richness of flavor to
the grapes of this section.
The professor claims that many varie
ties of peaches, pears and apples 'of tbis
section possess a like peculiar richness
of flavor over "the fruitsvof the coast
climate. Xo doubt owing to the large
number of warm nigh ts, as well as con
tinuous days of sunshine and freedom
from fogs."
We have been fully convinced of this
opinion before, and the reputation that
)iaa been obtained by the fruit of Wasco
county ail over tne coast- is inrtner
evidence ot this fact ; but we are pleased
to have tne opinion ot one so well in
formed as is Professor Lorant. . He
believes that, there could be immense
fortunes made by any person who would
engage in the -manufacture of wine in
this section, as the California grapes
and climate would not begin to make as
good quality ot wine or brandy as .can
be made at The Dalles. '

After ''the -Robbers. .
Sax Francisco, Sept.' 15. A posse in
the mountains on the trail of the train
robbers, Sontag and Evans, were fired
upon and two of them killed, McGinnis
and Wilson. The remains of both men
were completely riddled with, shot and
they must have died instantly. The
Indian trailers now in Visalia, say that
Kvans was not wounded, as reported.
From their position they could see
him running away after the shooting.
Al Witty, who i also in Visalia, was
not badly hurt, having only a slight
wound on the neck." Nothing has been
heard of the robbers or the posse that
went after them.
