THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, SATURDAY JANUARY 30. 1897.
DISPUTED BY ALLEN
The Power to Foreclose on
. Railways Questioned.
NEBRASKA SENATOR IS SEVERE
The Interstate Commerce Committee
Bear Argument on Bill to Stop
the Practice of Tleket-Bcalplnf.
Washington, Jan. 28. The senate
today passed the bill extending the time
for building the St. Paul & Manitoba
railway through White Earth Indian
reservation.
Petitions urging the speedy ratific
tion of the Anglo-American peace treaty
were received.
Allen of Nebraska asked immediate
consideration for a resolution he offered
directing the committee on Pacific rail
roads to inquire into the powers of the
president and attorney-general to con
. ' duct foreclosure proceedings against the
.Pacific railroads; also their powers to
nter into agreements as to the sale
prior to actual foreclosure, and direct'
ing the attorney-general meantime to
retrain from further action.
Beading from the law Allen argued
the first dutv of the president was to re
deem the first liens, not to foreclose
The president, he said, should be bound
by law as much as the humblest citizen
of the land. If this point was raised it
was likely to defeat the foreclosure.
Clark, Republican, of Wyoming inter
rupted to express astonishment that
Allen, claiming to be a friend of the
people took the position that the United
States should pay out of its treasury
ever dollar of these prior liens before
resorting to foreclosure.
Allen responded that he could not be
moved by bluster; the law was plain
and the duty mandatory on the presl
dent.
A discussion proceeded as to the con'
e tract ion of the law, Piatt of Connecti
cut and Bacon of Georgia taking part.
Piatt said he confessed some- doubt as to
the right of the president to resort to
foreclosure before redemption, but was
inclined to believe the power existed.
At another point Allen declared the
president could not foreclose unless he
declined to recognize the la, and in the
language of "Boss" Tweed, asked :
"What are you going to do about it?"
It was time to stop this interference.
The executive branch had taken from
congress the Cuban and other foreign
questions, and now there was an effort
to' remove from congress all control of
domestic affairs.
The resolution finally wenl over in
order to permit Thurston of Nebraska to
address the Eenate on it tomorrow.
The debate on the bill for an interna
' tional monetary conference was re
lumed, but the bill went over until to
morrow to allow Pettigrew to speak.
The senate at 2 :10 went into executive
session, presumably to take up the nom
ination of W. S. Forman to be commis
sioner of internal revenue. .
Senator Chandler madn a vigorous
speech in opposition to Forman's con
firmation. SNOW FALLING IN MANY STATES
The Storm Extend aa Par Sonth aa
North Carolina.
Chicago, Jan. 28. The temperature
still hangs close to the zero mark. One
result of the relief work accomplished by
the police has been a great decrease in
crime. The police and Mayor Swift be
lieve that by the prompt relief afforded
thousands of destitute families, the city
has been saved from bread riots.
Among the large subscriptions to the
relief fund is one of'$2,0OQ by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company. '
The contributions to date amount to
1 over $50,000 cash and hundreds of tons
of coal and provisions.
It Snowed at the Hub. '
Boston, Mass.. Jan. 28. Snow began
falling early last night and the storm in
creased in violence' steadily until 8
o'clock this morning, when seven inches
had fallen and the wind was blowing
thirty miles "an hour. The street-car
system is badly crippled. The storm is
general throughout New England. . The
only accident reported up to 9 o'clock is
the stranding of an unknown schooner
near Vineyard Haven.
Snow Storm la General.
Washington, Jan. 28. The weather
bureau reports Bnow as far as Southern
North Carolina, with a maximum of
eight inches in New York.
Reports of the weather bureau show
the cold wave reached the South Atlan
tic states last night. A snow storm,
quite unusal in extent and degree for the
Southern states, accompanied a drop in
temperature. This,, morning reports
show the minimum temperature in
South and North Carolina, ' Georgia,
Alflhnmfl mil Pantrnl and Knrf.horn
Florida lower by 4 to 8 djpgrees than any
previously reported during, the last
ten days of January. -At Cbatanooga,
Charlotte and Atlanta it was bi'x degrees
above zero. The .minimum was 22 at
Jacksonville. It is not expected that
there will be much of a rise in the ther
mometer for several days.
Snow at New York,
New York San. 28.-rThe snow' this
morning - was eight inches deep, the
heaviest fall of the year. The tempera
ture is moderate. Traffic all over the
city was delayed. The storm, . was felt
severely by the poor." A recent accurate
canvass of the city shows that the num
ber of people in want is greater than was
ever seen in New York before .
In the Nutmeg State, Too. '
Baybbook Point. Conn..' Jan. 28.
Over a foot of snow has fallen. There
are no signs of abatement of the storm.
PLENTY OF GOLD.
Uncle Sam'a Coffers are Filled to Over-
flowing.." .
Washington, Jan. . 28. Just at the
present time the treasnry of the United
States is enjoying the novel , experience
of being in possession of more gold than
it knows what to do with. The cash'
balance at the close of business Wednes
day was $229,920,399, and of this amount
no less than $144,880,389 was in free
gold, available for current expenses, or
to act as a reserve to redeem ' the out
standing paper money. This leaves In
the treasury as a fund to be used for or
dinary purposes only, $836,031,017.
This is far from being an enormous
sum when the extensive operations- of
the government are taken into consider
ation. The treasury is running behind
still, and with only three days yet in the
first month of the year the excess of ex
penditures over receipts is $7,293,516
and the deficit for the fiscal year thus
far, a period of nearly seven months, is
over $43,000,000.
If the gold in the treasury is not paid
out for ordinary expenses there is avail
able $12,840,806 in silver, not covered by
certificates; $19,516,820 in greenbacks;
$35,582,518 in treasury notes, and $17,-
339,955 in national notes and the frac
tional silver, deposits in national funds,
outstanding checks and drafts, disburs
ing officers' balances, post-office accounts
and other miscellaneous items.
It will thus be seen that although the
treasury is in possession of the large
nominal cash balance ot $230,00,000 in
round numbers, it has only $85,000,090
with which to conduct ordinary transac
tions, and if the deposits of gold should
continue this sum would be stil! further
reduced. ' Since the November election
the gold reserve has without bond sales
or other unusual assistance gradually
mounted up to the higbwater mark for
this administration.
A MIDNIGHT HOLD-CP.
Southern Pacific Tram In the Bands of
Highwaymen.
Grant's Pass, Or Jan.- 28. The
north-bound overland due at Roseburg
at 11:40 p.m., was held up two miles
west of Roseburg tonight. The train
was in charge of Conductor Sam Yeatcb
and Engineer Morris.
The following particulars were given
out by the Southern Pacific officials
here :
Train No 15. north-bound Oregon ex
press, was held up last night at bnady
point by two or three men, two miles
south of Roseburg. The express car was
detached from the train bv the robbers,
and the door blown open with dynamite.
The two smaller safes in the car were
blown open and Iooted,'though it is not
thought the robbers secured much,
The express then took fire. The con
ductor and trainmen worked hard to
save it after the robbers bad gone, but
the flames had too good a start, and the
car and contents were destroyed.
The train was on time at Shady point,
where Engineer Morris saw a man at the
side of the track, waving a flag. . , .
He slowed up for the signal, and just
as he brought trie train to a stop, a man
armed with two revolvers came over the
back of the car and covered him. At the
same time, another armed man, who
was the man that flagged him, appeared
at the side of the cab, and, presenting a
revolver at him, ordered him net to at
tempt to move the train, bnt to come
down at once and go with them to the
express-car. The fireman in the mean
time had got down on the other side.
The two robbers and the engineer then
went to the express car, where the rob
bers ordered the express messenger to
open the door. This the messenger' re
fused to do.
The robbers then uncoupled the ex
press car, returned to the engine and
kicked the train back, .leaving the ex
press car separated.
In the meantime, the express messen
ger had seized the opportunity to step
out of the car.
After breaking the train the robbers
returned to the express car, aqd, with
heavy charges of dynamite, the detona
tions of which were heard at Roseburg,
blew the door open. Entering the car,
they attacked the two smaller safes,
which they succeeded in entering. The
messenger thought the robbers did not
succeed in getting into the big safe, and
consequently they cquld not have se
cured much.
The mail car was also visited by the
robbers, and it is believed some regist
ered mail taken. But they did not pay
mucn attention to the mail car.
.The explosions set fire to the express
car, and wbn the robbers drew off", it
was a mass of flames. The train crew
worked like trojans, bnt were unable to
save it, and the car and contents were
almost totally destroyed.
Superintendent Fields, who was in
Rosebnrg at the time, took a special en
gine and went to the wrecked train as
soon as he heard of the robbery,
The passengers were considerably
skaken up, and eome of them fright-
ened, but no one was inj nred. The hold
no will make the train from 8 to 10
hours late in getting into Portland.
An imperfect description of one of the
roSbers was secured. It is presumed
they were masked. - ' .

The Mummy of Pharaoh.
The greatest discovery of mummies
ever made in Egypt was in the year
1881, when the remains of thirty-nine
royal personages were brought to light
at Dier-et-Bahari, Thebes. One of these
wn8 proven to be the mummy of .King
Rameses 11, the third king of the ninth
dynasty, and the "Pharaoh" of the Jew
ish captiyity. This mummy was in per
feet state of preservation. The mummy
case itself was of sycamore wood, plain
and unvarnished, and without a spot or
stripe of paint something reckoned as
unusual. The case was, however, carved
to represent Rameses in the 'position of
Osiris.- The crossed arms rested upon
the breast. In the right hand was the
royal whip, and in the left the royal
book. The features were most delicate
ly carved in soft wood, and the. whole
was surmounted with the crowns of Up
per and Lower Egypt, and surrounded
by a carved representation of the the
uraeus serpent. The name of Rameses
was written in plain black characters
upon the case, which bore no other text
or representation whatever, strongly
contrasting with the exaggerated dedi
cations noted on almost all the other
cases found in the same pit.
The mummy itself was carefully
wrapped in rose-colored and yellow
linen of a texture finer than the very
finest Indian muslin. In the different
folds of this linen several dried lotus
flower leaves were found. In the folds
of one of the bands which passed across
the grave clothes to keep them in place
was a folded papyri bearing incriptions
which inform the reader that this,
the mummy of Rameses II.,' was con
cealed in the pit where it waB found at
a time when a foreign army invaded
Egypt. This quaint bit of information,
which was probably written 2,000 or 2,
500 years ago, is as plaim as . though it
had been penned but yesterday. St.

England's Deepest Mine.
England's deepest mine shaft is at
Ashton Moss colliery, near Manchester,
going down 2,880 feet, but the dip in
the seam carrries the workings to 3,360
feet below the surface. The lowest part
of the Pendleton colliery is 3,474 leet.
The deepest shaft in the world is the
Red Jacket of the Calumet and Hecla
on Lake Superior, 4,900 feet. Belgulm's
deepest shaft is 3,937 feet; -Austro-Hnn-gary's,
3,672; Germany's, 2,960;
France's, 2,300, and Australia's, 3,302.
The Prussian government has bored
down to 6,572 feet below the surface, the
temperature there rising 1 degree,
Fahrenheit, lor every 62.1 feet.
Remarkable Sale of Hogs.
- For high prices no sale of bogs ever
made in the United States, according to
reports, was eqnal to the one held last
week by stockraiser Council of Will
iamsville, at the Illinois State Fair
grounds, Springfield. The sale was con
fined to thoroughbred Poland-China
stock, 40 head bringing over ten thou
sand dollars. The lowest price received
for a single animal was $110, and the
highest $750. This eale means a great
deal for hog raisers. Home values at
public sales are also more satisfactory.
Six to eight dollars per hundred seems
to be the rule for common stock bogs.
A Care for Lame Back.
"My daughter, when recovering from
an attack of fever, was a great sufferer
from pain in the back and hips," writes
Louden Grover, of Sardis, Ky. "After
using quite a number of remedies with
out any benefit she tried one bottle of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and it has
given entire relief." Chamberlain'B
Pain Balm is also a certain cure for. rheu
matism. . Sold by Blakeley & Houghton.
CRAPS BEFORE DUTY.
The Darky Thought That the New Yorker
W aa Very Inconsiderate.
A Wall street man tells this story:
"I "was making- the trip from New Or
leans to Memphis in April by a Missis
sippi river -steamboat. On the first day
out from New Orleans I felt the need of
the barber's services and learning-that
the Memphis Belle -was tonsoriallv
equipped I sought out that office,
found a single barber in " charge,
rather pompous, tall person of color
with flowing- Dundreary whiskers. He
was engng-ed in doing- nothing' at all
with that gTace of execution peculiar to
the southern darky. I seated myself
in his chair and was soon wrapped in
thought upon some business I had be
gun in New Orleans. .The barber began
his work leisurely, the while carrying-
on a one-sided flow of talk to which
replied in monosyllables. -
"The day. was warm and I was almost
dozing- away under the soft splashes of
his brush when another customer
entered. . He was a nrrvous, fidgety sort
of man and as there were so newspa
pers in the room he amused himself in
looking- at a few prints hung- on the
walls, the attraction of which soon
palled upon him. Then he walked to
the door and looked down the deck-
where a group of roustabouts were en
gaged m the g.ime of craps. Figaro
liad by this t:tne completed the iather
ing of one side of my face and roused mo
by turning i;:y hed-around. I inti
mated' that life vens short, and I didn't
care about passing too much of it in be
ing shaved. He was evidently disgusted
with my taciturnity and replied with
great dignity, but with no haste cither
of speech or action; 'Cert'nly, sail, cer-
t'nJy.'
tr "The stranger's curiosity had been
karouscd by the gambling going on ont-
j'side, which was as usual accompanied
by the come, sevens!' and shrieks of
'craps' whioh attend that game.
" 'What game is that, barber?' he
demanded of Dundreary. He of the
whiskers made one or two artistic plays
of his brush over my chin and answered:
" 'Lah, Gawd, mister, ain't yer ever
seen that game? That'scraps. Every
body' plays it 'round this country.'
"The stranger admitted he had seen
it played' before in the wharves and
streets, but said he had not discovered
any mental light from his observations.
A running exchange of queries and ex
planations followed between barber and
stranger, during which a not over keen
razor had begun its . course down my
right cheek. Both parties to the col
loquy were getting interested and I was
getting bored.
The nervous stranger appeared
somewhat obtuse, or, perhaps, the ver
nacular of the barber was inadequate
to convey the full- meaning of the
technical details of craps. At any rate,
he pressed for further information. My
face had by that time been cleared of
beard as to my chin and part of my
cheek. Fifteen minutes had been con
siimed in the process and my patience
was becoming threadbare.
The barber had exhausted his powers
of description and, turning to the
stranger, he said:
'Weil, sah, ef you really wants to
know how to shoot craps I kin show
you and placing the razor on the shelf
he opened a drawer and withdrew a
pair of greasy-looking dice. Then he
stepped over to a table and began to
give a practical exposition of the mys
teries of the game. This was too much.
'Here!' I cried, raising myself in the
chair. 'Finish up this job before you
get to crap shooting.'
Certainly, sah, he replied to me
and turning to the stranger he added:
One minute an 1 11 show vou.'
It only took a few minutes to com
plete his work on me, and as I put on
my coat he and the stranger proceeded
with the game. As I left the room I
could hear him muttering about the
hurry some people is in an' it is still
tnh iavs 'fore we. iret to Memnhis ' "
A HOLE IN THE MOUNTAIN.
Wonders of a Cave Near Chattanooga
. That Puzzle Geologists.
'The most peculiar cave I ever saw,"
said a Chattanooga man to a Washing
ton Star writer, "is on Raccoon moun-
ain, near Chattanooga. It has never
been explored, and.no one really knows
whether or. not there is much of a cave.
The Indians have several legends con
cerning it, and it is remarkable that no
one has ever entered 11. jx was sup
posed by the Indians to be haunted, and
there are some gruesome tales told
about it. . The only opening yet dis
covered is on top of the mountain. It
has been sounded with a line of consid
erable length without finding a bottom
to the chamber through -the roof of
which the opening exists. There is a
constant roaring sound, like the wind
sometimes makes. It does not seem
ike water, and is undoubtedly caused
by air circulating in the immense hole
in the mountain. There are no . vol
canic indications, and the cave is a puz
zle to geologists."
English Lawyers,
The difference between a counsel and
a queen's counsel or, in the event of
a king being on the throne, a K. C. is
that the latter is supposed to be able to
appear as the sovereign's advocate.
Both are entitled to wear wig and
gown; but the gown of the latter is
silk, and the former is of "stuff." The"
queen's counsel can take only . what
is termed "leading business." .

HUNTINGTON MAT BE SUPERSEDED
Changes Expected In the Southern Pa
cific Management.
San Fbancisco, Jan. 28. The annual
meeting of the . stockholders of the
Southern Pacific Company will be held
in April, and it is rumored in railroad
circles that the'event will be marked by
several important changes in the general
offices of the company. , Rumors have it
that there will be a change in the board
of directors of the company, and that C.
P. Huntington will- be succeeded by
Thomas H.f Hubbard in the important
office of president.
There are some who profess to believe
that the rumors concerning a change of
administration are without foundation
and that the changes' will not come
nearer a realization than have similar
rumors in the past. In other quarters
it is stated that Huntington's adminis
tration during thepast year has not met
with the entire approval of the stock
holders and that the Searles interests
will join the Stanford and Crocker in
terests in effecting a radical change of
affairs in the executive offices of the
company. .
