Vice-president Howard of the Ameri
can Railway Union in an interview yea
terday, aaid : "This thing ia going to lie
a teat case, and we are gathering evi
dence for the coming trial. There ia a
letter," aaid he, "that will be a valuable
piece of evidence in our favor. Thia
letter telle of evidence tiiat w ill prove
that moat of tho freight cars that were
burned in Chicago were burned by two
men in tbe employ of the Railway Man
agers' Association, and the car were
burned for the piirjiose of creating a
aentiment against the American Rail
way Union. Tbe railway managers paid
these two men $il00 down, and they
were to receive $200 more when the job
waa done."
"Thia ia not all tbe evidence we have
by any meana," continued Howard.
"We further have poaitive evidence that
the men who led the mob of 5000 men
at Blue Ialand were Tinkerton men, and
that tbeae men were employed by tbe
railroads."
Mmuu Day.
Thia morning the weather waa not
propitious for our friends tbe Mazamas
and Mazaniareasea, for the old Weat
Wind waa up and a bustling, and bad
taken poseeaaion of the mountain before
the cliff-climbers stuck their inquisitive
noses out from under their blankets. It
waa disappointing, and we feel sorry for
the whole crowd. It ia not nice, even
for a Mazama who haa cet hie heart on
ascending a mountain to riae betimes
only to have the untamed zephyr toy
with hia wbiakora and interfere with
hia intentions. A heavy black cloud
enveloped the mountain at sunrise, and
from all appearaneea not only the w ind,
but also rain or anow prevails there.
Even should thia not be the case the day
ia a most unsatisfactory one, for the
mountain is beclouded and should tbe
ascent be made nothing could be aeen.
Willi tlie first clear weather the trip
will be made ao that for a day or two old
Hood will be worth watching for the
pillar of amoke by day or tbe red fire at
night. The Oregonian eavs some of the
party liavo taken Yakima cigars with
them; if so, tbe fact will be known to
the nose long octorethe smoke ia visible.
Since writing tbe above, which was
done the first thing thia morning, tbe
w eather conditiona have changed some
what. The clouda disappeared ubout
;30 but the wind waa fresh here all
day, and undoubtedly blew a gale ut Mt.
Hood. Beside, as the ascent ia nearly
always begun early in the morning, it ia
not probable that theatart waa made to
day, the weather clearing up too late.
What a 4'annow Ball Can !.
In dwelling upon the wonderful
power of the guns of tho Indiana, Albert
Franklin Matthews, in an Hrticle on
"The Involution of a Battleship," in tbe
Century for July, uivea illustrations from
tho recent Chilian civil war, showing
the effectiveness of the smaller si.os of
breecli-loiuling rifle puna.
A shot weighing '.'50 pounds from n
8-inch gnu of Fort Vuldiviu. in Valpa
raiso harlior, struck tlie cruiser Blanco
F.neuluda above the armor belt, passed
through the thin steel plate on the side,
went through tho captain's' cabin, took
the pillow from under hia head, dropped
his head on the mattress with a thump,
but without injuring a hair, passed
through the open door into the mesa
room, where it struck t lie floor, and
then glanced to the ceiling. Then it
went through a wwkIoii bulkhend one
inch thick into a room '.'5x42 feet where
forty men were sleeping iu hanimocka.
It killed six of them outright, and
wounded aix oilier, three of whom died,
after which it passed through a atecl
bulkhead five incliea thick, and ended
ita course by striking a battery outside,
iu which it made a dent nourly two
inchea deep. It waa filled with aand.
Had it released deadly gusea no one
knowa what damage it might have done.
A 450-ponnd missile from a 10-inch
gun in the aame f rt struck the aame
veaael on ita H-inch armor. It hit square
on a bolt. The shell did not pierce the
armor, but burst outride the vesael. It
drove tho bolt clear through, and in its
flight tlie bolt struck an 8-inch gun,
completely disabling it. Such ia the
power of the smaller-sized gun.

An interesting decree was rendered by
Judge Bradshaw yeaterday in the case of
John Barger vs. O. D. Taylor. The his
tory of tbe case ia briefly aa follows:
Some time ago C. W Dietzel, through
hia agent Mr. Rowland, loaned to O. D.
Taylor $050, charging bim besides the
legal intereet, 50 bonne, and taking
security by mortgage on certain real
property in Wasco county. Subsequently
the note and mortgage were assigned to
John Barger. Upon failure to pay in- ,
terest on the note becoming due, and
being unpaid, Barger commenced pro
ceedings to forecloee tbe mortgage.
Answering plaintiff's complaint defend
ant set np the defense of usury, in that
plaintiff had charged more than the
legal interest. Judge Bradshaw finds
the matter of the complaint true, there
being no dispute about the money being
loaned, but also finds that charging a
bonus was in effect the same aa interest,
and that tbe charge of usury waa sus
tained. Tli court therefore decreed
that the property be eold according to
law, and that out of the proceeds of the
tale the costs and expenaea be paid, and
that the sum of $050, the amount of the
original loan, lie paid to the state of
Oregon.

Yesterday evening a gentleman en
tered the county cierk'a office aa it waa

questions, proceeded to buy the county
clerk'a consent to his getting married.
The lady he proposed to nmrry accom

willin'. Mr. Kelsay forthwith made
out the document, dnd the two whose
hearts beat in rythmic unison, started
out to find some one to tie the knot,
Mr. Kelaay declining to do so though
urgently requested. They had scarcely
left the courthouse door when they met
Judge Blakeley, who, with becoming

Mr. George Summers writing ol a trip
to Portland during the high water haa
the following kind word in the i'rine
ville News for tho D. P. A. N. Co. :
Tlie freight situation at that time was
bad, indeed. To unload the ateamer
from Portland it wae run up under a
high bank of the river and a block tied
to a tree above and one end of a rope
hooked to a truck and the other end
around a steam capstan on the boat,
taking longer to uuloud two tons than it
generally takes to get away with ftO or
60 tons, "and the only reason we have
any freight at all from Portland is owing
to the unusual exertiona of tho captains
of tbe Regulator and the Dalles City, to
gether with the D. P. & A. N. Co., of
the Dalles, w ho have done well under
tho cirenmstaueea.
