New Vokk, Sept. 20. With the ex
ception of a scare in Elizabeth yester-
da-, nothing of interest is seen in the
papers concerning cholera. This sus;
pected case is a Pole named John Cu
sick, who was taken to the hospital
from some chemical works on Staten
island, suffering from what the physi
cians are inclined to think is Asiatic
cholera. This morning the hospital
authorities telegraphed the New York
board of health to send a cholera expert
to diagnose the case,. All nurses and
patients in the hospital able to move
left the building this morning in fright.
The hospi-tal is quarantined.
In this city the choiera as a matter of
news has fallen out of public interest.
The citv papers print it on the inside
page's, reserving the more prominent
places for the Grand Army encampment
and politics. No new cases have appear
ed, and news comes from quarantine of
the arrival of the steamer Fnrnessia,
from Glasgow with 029 cabin passengers.
Three huudred and fifty-s"x passengers
from the steamers Rugia and Scandia
were taken to Hoffman Island this morn
ing, making the total number in quaran
tine there 10G5. The passengers from
the pest ships Rugia and Scandia thus
turned loose are among the people who
are not. known to have been infected, and
are being held there merely as a pre
cautionary measure. Thirteen of the lot

A letter just received from Valej Mai-;
heur county, contains the information
that in the case of the State of Oregon
vs. Willianj and-John Bailey, jointly
indicted with Lee Mullen, Al Mullen
and John Coder.for murder in the first
degree, for the killing of 'William Hum
bert on April 5th, 1S92, a jury was ob
tained Thursday morning at 11 o'clock,
just " one week and two. hou.KS. having
been consumed in the effort,-and the
case immediately proceeded to trial.
The evidence closed at 9 o'clock 1n the
evening, after which the counsel pro
ceeded to argue-the case to the jury, and
the charge and instructions of Judge
Clifford to the jury were finished at 1
o'clock, when the jury retired to deliber
ate on their verdict. In eighteen hours
they returned into court with a verdict
of murder in the second degree.
The case was hotly contested on both
sides, and but for the fact that the de
fendants were in an intoxicated condi
tion at the time of the offense, the ver
dict of the jjiry would undoubtedly have
been murder in the first degree. At one
time during their deliberations the jury
were about equally divided for murder
in the first and second degrees, but after
being out eighteen hours, those, who
were for murder in the first degree, in
order to arrive at a verdict, concluded it
better to return a verdict of murder in
the second degree. The case of The State
vs. Al and Lee Mullen and John Coder,
jointly indicted with the Bailey boys,
proceeded to trial Saturday morning. It
will be very hard to obtain a jury in this
case, inasmuch as about one hundred
jiirors were examined in the former case,
and of course hardly any of them will be
qualified to sit in this case.

An I'nreusonable Slaughter of the Late
. Protected Pheasants.
Complaints against persons for slay
ing Mongolian pheasants still continue.
"""The temptation to ehoot these' beautiful
and toothsome game birds proves too
ever, none of these pheasants ever find
their way into the markets here, orgrace
the table of the Portland epicures. Pre
vious to this to kill the Mongolian
pheasant was against the law, and the
risk was too great to tempt any game
dealer to expose them for sale. Out
through the valley the shooting of
these birds seems to be indulged in with
comparative impunity now that the law
has expired. The Albany Democrat of
. Thureday says: "One of the two men
accused of killing 231 Chinese pheas
ants in two days says they were two
weeks killing them, an average of nine
teen a day for eacli man. Among hunt
ers the Chinese question is the absorb
ing theme, and the words squabs, setting
hens, etc., are mixed up in a manner to
confuse, confound and upset a common
man. in tho meantime a breaklast of
the Celeetials knocks out even the an
cient dish of nightingales. Whether
drilled with their heads up, on the run
- or on the wing, they present a diet un
surpassed this side of Mars. Hunters
should do all in their power to preserve
the bird perennially, for it makes a
noble dish ; but the universal verdict is
that for pure enjoyment nothing has
been offered ahead of hunting the Mon
golian ring-necked pheasant' and his
trotting mate. Leave the squabs alone ;

of leaving home. "When Captain Oakes
left here he had $2,400, and many

explanation of the disappearance of the

Oregon all Right.
The steam thresher is now pouring in
to the Oregon horn of plenty t remendous
loads of wheat, and all the warehouses
stand smiling at the fun. And all other
branches of business smile gladly when
the glittering stream of cash meanders
toward the agricultural business. Ore
gon generally has a golden autumn, a
silvery winter and nn emerald spring.
Oregon is all right. While the wheat
crop is considered short, and will consist
of fewer bushels for the state
than last year, it is consoling that the
farmers are engaging in more mixed
farming, and that there will be more
dollars made through the year than we
made last year. Klamath Star.

last week showed that certain eastern
capitalists had peremptorily "sat down
upon" further loans of money upon real

counties, for no other, reason whatever
than the published reports of last June
concerning crop failures in the-Inland
Empire, ' Reports that may ' possibly
have been justified, at the time, but
which should have been corrected later
on, when the evidences showed conclu
sively that the crop would be up to the
average, with the exception of a few is
olated cases. In spite of all reports to
the contrary, more wheat, and that of
finer quality than any previous year in
history of farming operations in Eastern
Oregon, is fiuding its way to market,
and on the U. P. K. Hue from 100 to 12.5
car loads daily reach Portland. Barley
and rye are equally as good as wheat;
oats may be a little off, and the same
may be said of potatoes in some localities',
but not generally. So to sum it all up

it was supposed the disease had been

gers, contrary to agreement. Jenkins'
friends feel that Hamilton is seeking a
selfish advantage by what they deem
the cholera scare at Sandy Hook. The
scare was set-up to be put down for
personal credit. Some think a clash of
state and federal authority imminent.
Gen. Hamilton has this afternoon is
sued an official bulletin on the condition
of the camp. In it ho says there have
been no deaths fro.n cholera today and
no new cases of a suspicious character
have occurred.

all hopes of his recovery had been aban
doned, but through care and attention
he finally pulled through: The attend

ICcsults of The Plague on The Trade or
Hamburg.
j Hambl-uc, Sept. 21. People whohavo
heretofore dono business with Hamburg
are afraid now to handle anything made
in the plague-stricken city, and in con
sequence every branch of industry shows
an entire absence of orders. Of course,
with no demand for their products,
manufacturers find it impossible to keep
their employes at work, and dally the
idle population of the city is gaining
fresh accessions from the ranks of clerks,
artisans and unskilled laborers who are
discharged because of the utter etagna-
tion of business. The distress is most
marked among the dock laborers and
fishermen. The shipping trade of the
city has received a most Eevere blow
from the epidemic, and many vessel
belonging to Hamburg have been forced
to lie up until the epidemic abates. .
Dock laborers and other men employed
about the wharves can find nothing to
do, and in many cases actual starvation
is staring them in the face. The fisher--men,
too, find their occupation gone, as
nearly every one is afraid to touch fish,
let alone eat it, and those who still fol
low their business find no money in it? -"
Whole loads of fish are everyday cartecT '.
away from St. Paul's market and sold
for a few marks to farmers to be used as
a fertilizer on their lands. Many por- .
ters about the city are without work and
H havo"been idle for a considerable time.
Southeast of Hamburg and belonging to
the city is a territory called Yerlande.
Here are located many persons who
cultivate small tracts of -land, and who
have heretofore found a ready and
profitable market for their products.
Now all is changed, and those market
gardners are on the verge of ruin. They
are unable to dispose of their pro
ducts, and the fruit is rotting on the '
trees. The situation is extremely bad
in whatever light it is viewed, and suc
cor for the impoverished and famishing
people will have to come from the
charitable. .

If Cleveland bo elected. Oregon will
become prominent in an unusual way,
says an exchange. Justice Field is old,

The senator will accept gracefully. He.
will resign his seat in the senate, per

meets in January, to elect his successor,
