ANOTHER TRAGEDY.
I nknoon Man Nloallnc a Klt
Fatally Injured.
The coroner was notified last night of
a man having been found dead on a car
loaded with lumber at Celilo, and he !
ordered Mr. Crandull. the undertaker. I
to remove said body and prepare it for ( will be from 9 to 12 a. in. and 1 to 4 p
interment. An inquest wu held thiamin. School will begin on the first Mon
morning.
The body was found in the east end of
a coal car in a reclining position. The
car was loaded w ith heavy timber and
plank, the short ones being on the
bottom, and the long ones on top, thus
forming a recess or cave. The man wa
reclining in between the end gate and
the timber, and from all apcarance
the timber slid toward the end gate,
catching the man' head between a
heavy timber and the end gate, and then
sliding back again about two inches.
The only mean of determining hi
name was from a time book carried in
hi pocket, which contained the name of
Frank Anderson, and age about 30 year.
Dr. I-ogsn' testimony was that he
found his skull crushed, sufficiently to
cause death in a few minute, and that
no other mark of violence existed about
hi person, and that the wound had ap
parently been inflicted about 24 hours.
The coroner'i jury, consisting of
Messrs. E. P. FitzGerald, W. K. Garret
son, J. K. Taige, C. F. Stephen, L
Nolan anil M. Mclnnis, returned in the
following verdict :
"We, the jury sworn to inquire into
the cause of death of the man found
dead on the U. P. car No. 0219, find
that he was killed while riding on
freight train No. 22, east-bound, by hav
ing his head jammed between end gate
of car and some heavy square timbers
with which car was loaded, the timbers
and end gate ling thrown together by
the bumping of the cars.
"That hi name is unknown to ns,
except that a time book found npon his
person contains the name of Frank An
derson, and his age about 30 years.
That no blame attaches to anyone for
his unfortunate death."

Oppoaed to tan Ilepeal.
Senator Peffer, the people' party
champion, was in Portland yeeterday,
leisurely en route to Washington for the
special session of congress. To a Tele
eraui reporter he said, among other
things:
"As to the policy of the present ad
ministration. I understand that two
proiiositions are to be submitted to con
gress as administration measures: First,
to repeal the Sherman silver law, and in
that way establish permanently a gold
basis lor our financial system : and
second, to revise the tariff along strictly
revenue line. Thia will include, as I
understand, a repeal of the present
sugar bounty law, which provide for
the payment of 2 cent a pound on
home-made sugar directly to the manu
facturer, and to restore the old duty on
foreign sugar. I am directly opposed
to both of those proposition, and be
lieve that the adoption of either of
them will wreck the democratic party
Tha Hody of TalTa round.
The body of W. R. Taffe was found
this morning floating in the river about
three miles above this city by one Han
sen. who was out bunting for it in i
boat, iu which was also a dog. The dog
first noticed it, and attracted his master's
attention by barking. It was then re
covered, tho new telegraphed to his
parents, and an inquest held this after
noon. The deceased had vest and pants
upon his person, in one ocket of which
was found his watch.
The School ICooma.
Tomorrow is inspection day at the
public schools of the city, and the jani
tors of the several buildings will hold

tors through the buildings, who may
wish to inform themselves of the room

Trust Company are in the neigh borhood i
of IHOO.OOO, while the liabilities are
something over -00,000. The assets
will exceed tlie liabilities aliout '.'."lO.CMK)
or $200,000.
The liabilities of the Oregon National
bank are greater in proportion to the
assets than those of the Northwest Loan
& Trust Company.
The officers of the Northwest Loan A
Trust Company are: President, George
B. Markle ; vice-president, H. Tbielsen ;
treasurer, J. L. Hartman ; secretary, W.
G. Dillingham. The paid-up capital is
250,OO0.
The officer of the Oregon National
bank are: President, George B. Mar
kle; vice-president, E. B. McFarland;
cashier, D. F. Sherman. The paid-up
capital is 1200,000.
The closing of the door of these banks
affects the finances of the county in the
most vital point. The Oregon National
bank was one of the depositories of the
county funds, and the whole collection
of the recent taxes ha been placed in
that bank bv Sheriff Kellv.
Charles A. Malarkey, county treas
urer, ttated that in ma opinion mere
is over 300,000 of the county money in
the Oregon National.
'Mr. Kelly ha paid me $423,000 in
round number and turned over some
countv warrants," said Treasurer -Wa-
larky. "Th total tax roll ia fl.243,000,
and I don't think the delinquent list
could exceed t240,000,for last year it was
only about 00,000. So I estimate that
the total tax collection for this year
must be fully $1,000,000, if not more.
"I have done my utmost to get thi
money out of the sheriff's bands, having
resorted to the courts on two occasion,
but was met with technical objections
each time which threw me out of court.
"I suggested to Mr. Kellywhen the
mortgage tax law was sustained by the
supreme court, that he pay over all
these collections directly to me and take
my receipt as county treasurer. But he
didn't do it, and I suppose the money is
in the closed bank. I feel that I have
done my duty."
Sheriff Kelly was seen this afternoon,
but absolutely refused to make any
statement for publication.
A Ball Conteat.
The Dalle base ball team will leave
this afternoon after the arrival of the
Regulator, for Goldendale, where they
will play a matched game with the
Goldendale nine. The Dalles team sel
dom know defeat, and we have no doubt
but they will keep the honors they enjoy,
as champion.
Marveloua Kacape.
The fiendish ingenuity of things inani-
j i i .i
mate linns a very gooa example ia me
following, from the Goldendale Sentinel :
James Bnrgen, son of Thomas Bur-
gen of Chamberlain Flat, had a close
call one day last week that resulted in a
marvelous escape from death. He was
on top of a load of hay and was unwind
ing the lines from the upright stake in
front of the rack when the stake gave
wav and he fell forward on to the dou
bletrees, part of the load of hay falling
on top of him as the team started on a
dead run. In thi position he was
partly dragged and partly carried for
about two hundred yards, when lie
crawled on top of the tongue and from
thence on to one of the horses. Just
then and while the horse was bucking
vigorously, one wheel struck a rock and
the udden halt threw Mr. Burgen to
the ground. One wheel passed diago
nally over hi leg a little above the au
kle and over one arm. Then the rack
in some mysterious way tilted and the
whole load, rack and .all, fell on top of
him. His father and Mr. Stedham had
followed tho runaway tcaiu as fast as
possible, and as Mr. Stedham came up
to the wreck James crawled out and
started to catch the horses, which were
still running with the wagon attached
He bad gone only a little way when he
was compelled to desist. An examina
tion allowed that beyond being bruised
at the place where the wheel passed
over him, Mr. Burgen was not other
wise Injured and will soon bo as well as
ever. But it was a marvelous escape,
and those who saw the accident never
expected to see James come out of it
alive. The team finally ran up against
a fence, and neither tho team nor the
wagon were found injured in the least.
But the hay rack was nothing 'but a
mass of kindling wood.

INDIAN BULLETS.
Hvrt Hlurcla. Near Moalar, Narrnwly
Kacapca Halns; Killed.
A tragedy was only averted near
Mosier last week by the bad aim of an
Indian, and it was really too close to be
comfortable to the intended victim."
Bert Sturgis, a hoy about 14 years old,
son of Dan Sturgis, was out hunting
cows in the afternoon, when a strange
Indian rode by and, after exchanging a
few words, rode away. Whcji aljout 150
feet distant ttie Indian suddenly drew a
heavy revolver and fired a 44-caliber
bullet at the boy, not waiting to see the
effect of his shot, but riding away as if
for life. The boy was equally as fleet
and ran homeward as fast as his horse
could go. Arrived at his father's an ex
amination was made, and it was found
that two bullet holes had been made in
the opposite sides of a straw hat he was
wearing about an inch below the crown.
The Indian was a stranger, as the boy is
familiar with the faces of those living
near home. This is the second attempt
made by Indians to kill a boy in the
vicinity of The Dalles. A third attempt
may be successful.
' The Hchool Kooma.
A large number of people availed
themselves of the opportunity presented
Saturday of visiting the various school
room of the city. A reporter of Thb
Ciironici-e found them in probably the
best shape they have ever been. Eleven
rooms altogether are newly papered
with an attractive pattern, the floors
oiled, the desks varnished, the ceilings)
painted, the blackboards freshly coated,
and it is safe to say that when the pupils
assemble at the fall term they will
scarcely recognize their old haunts.
Many parents expressed themselves
agreeably surprised at the excellent and
painstaking work done by the school
directors, and Janitor Win. Glasiua
comes in for a fair share of praise for
having so neatly papered all the rooms,
as lie does not claim to be a professional
paper hanger.
Counterfeit Half Uollara.
