(lanf of Robbers Make Saccesaful Raid oa the Sheridan Bank. Hheriiliin,' Or., Oct, 27. With nitro glycerine, and borrowed tools, three nfi-critckcrs forced the vault of the private bank of Seroggin A Wortman, here early Mondiiy morning, took f 5, 000 in gold uml silver and eiieael without leaving a clew, notwitliKtand ingtltatJ. Z. Knkin, the mayor of Sheridan, took throe rifle shot attliein from flie range. So similar were their mt-thoda to those of the bandit gang who attempt ed to rob the Newberg bank on October I, that no ilotibt exist in the mind of Sheriff Hitton, of Yaiiihill county, and hi deputies that the robber liand are identical. The robla-r entered the bank by pry ing iih ii the front door. A brick vault w ith wall threcj feet thick were cut through with tool borrowed from the railroad tool house at Itullston, four mile away. The small safe inside the large vault was then drilled, nitro glycerine was poured in and an explo sion occurred, w hich wrecked the safe, the vault and the interior of the bank, and the plate glass windows in front. Piece of the safe were thrown through the steel diKir of the vault and into the street. The sound of the explosion alarmed Mayor' Knkin ami other citizens. Wiih'lmllft singing over their heads, the robber climbed into a buggy with the valuable content of the bank a freight, ami drove to the southward. Within half an hour all Sheridan knew that the only bank in town had been roblied. Tiie identity of the safe roblicr is a much a mystery a their present loca tion, ami it was tlte belief of Sheriff Sit bin that the gang who terrorized Nfwl-rg returned immediately to Port land. If this holds true in the Sheri dan Jrobliery, the move to the south ward was merely a blind. Ban on diseased stock. Owner. Hunt Dtp Cattle, If Required, to Enter Reacrvc. Washington, Oct. 2S.

HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON PRUNES IN POOR DEMAND. Association Holds Price Up to Two and One-Hall Dents. Salem DullneHS and uncertainty prevail in the prune market. The greater portion of the crop in this vi cinity has been harvested and by the middle of the week all the growers in the hill country south of Salein will have their prunes cured. The yield has been large and the ijuality is first class. The prunes are rich in sugar, of excellent flavor and of unusually good texture. The dried fruit this year shows no "bloatera" such as are found some: years. The crop having turned out better than was excb;d, the growers have nothing now to trouble them but selling the crop. It is estimated that the Oregon crop, Including that of Clark county, Wash ington, will amount to about 1,000 carloads. Of this quantity proliably a little more than one-third has been sold at prices ranging from 4 to 4) cents for the 40 to 50 to the pound size. The Bales at the J higher price were made early and recently 4 cents for 40s, or 2)i-cent basis, has prevailed. Low er prices have been made by a number til dealers. A little less than one third of the entire crop will pass through the bands of the Willmette Valley Prune association, the rmpqua Valley association and the Clark Coun ty association and individual dealers who are at present holding for a 2 cent liasia price. It is estimated that more than a third of the crop is un sold and in the hands of the growers who are not identified with associations and who are looking for a chance to sell at the liest price they can get. FIND OF PHONOLITB. Large Body of Rlsgstoas Located South of Baker City. Baker City A large body of phono lite, said to Ire as rich in gold as that found in Cripple Creek, Colo., has been discovered on East Camp creek, 55 miles south of thiscity. Thedtscovery was made gome time ago by J. II. Gra ham and J. W. Miller, but they were not certain that it was phonolite until they sent samples to Denver and to Washington and had assays made by the local assayers. They have received reports from all sources confirming the fact that it is phonolite. Samples of the ore range in value from M to 000 er ton. Phonolite, or ringstone, as it is called, is said to exist only in sec tions where there are vary rich gold ledges. The discovery has caused a great deal of excitement here and a nunilier of prominent citizens and mining pros pectors will leave for the new gold field at once. One specimen of float rock was picked up on the ground near the original discovery last week which anly weighed a few pounds, yet it yielded the owner 35 in free gold. Educator for Ocrmaa Coagreas. Salein W. T. Harris, United State! commissioner of education, has written Governor Chamlierlain calling attention to the international congress and school hygiene, which will hold a session at Nuremberg, Germany, April 4 to 9, 1904.

Salem The surplus school funds in the state treasury wero diminished by 82,700 last week when the state land board approved 0 applications for loans aggregating that amount.

La Grande The farmers of this dis trict use the pulp from the sugar beets after they have passed the process at the sugar factory as sbvk food. A large number of sheep will be brought to yards near the factory and will lie fed there until the produce is gone.

Williams and Frederick C. llubfr, is continuing the development of topography of irri gable lands in Harney valley.

A representative body of citizens of Union county, has presented to the chief engineer of the United States geo logical survey a statement of the ex isting conditions in that county, accom panied with a request that investiga tions and surveys be made of certain reservoir sites and ot the possibilities of developing an underground water supply by means of artesian wells. The petition asserts that Union coun ty contains more than 100,000 acres of fertile irrigable land, and that the pres ent water supply druing the two months of low water suffices to irriagte onlv about 1.000 acres. WARNER SETTLERS WILL SUB. WIU Test Validity of Deeds Issued to the Stock Company. Salem Attorney John Hall, of Port land, is preparing papers for the com mencement of a suit in behalf of the settlers of Warner valley, Lake county, in their contest with the Warner val ley stock company.

CANADA AOAIN FEARS AMERICA. Lest She Should Oct Greenland, Domin ion Favors Its Purchase. Halifax, N. H., Oct. 27. Replying to a reference made in the Canadian h nise of commons by SenaUir Pierce, of New Brunsw ick, to the possibility of the United States obtaining possession of Greenland to the detriment of Can adian interest, the Halifax Chronicle, the leading newspaper supjwirter of Sir Wilfrid l.uurier in Nova Scotia, advo cates the purchase of the island by Canada. The Chronicle says: "Unless prompt action is taken we no doubt shall awaken some dark morning to find that our neighbor have encompassed us on the east, also, and that we have another arbitration bface, or at least, if we cannot secure Greenland by purchase, let us have some definite imperial pronouncement with reference to it, analogous to the Monroe doctrine. oV'Tlie other half of this continent is by choice and right British. The American government bought land on our northwest solely for the purpose of annoyingns and lessening the value of our country. They are quite capable, if unchecked, of pursuing a similar pol icy in the east. Now is the time to take action, or at least to speak out a plain warning." POWDER TRAIN BLOWN UP. Explosion Is So Heavy That People are Thrown Down. New Y'ork, Oct. 27. Three freight cars, one of them loaded with dyna mite, broke away from a freight train on the Harlem river branch of the New Y'ork, New Haven & Hartford railroad, and collided with the remainder of the train on a grade. The car with the explosive in it was blown up. Engin eer Thomas Corrigan was thrown off his seat and for a few minutes was slightly stunned. He regained his presence of mind, however, and shut off steam, bringing the train to a stop. Nearly every bouse in Baychester suffered damage from the explosion. A woman who was thrown from her bed is believed to be the qnly person who was injured. A poilceman who was crossing the tracks a mile from the scene was knocked down by the con cussion. The three detached cars and the rear car of the main portion of the train were destroyed. Within half a mile of the Baychester station not a pane of glass remained intact. In Westchester village almost a panic reigned, t Men rushed to the postoflice, armed with clubs and guns, believing that burglars had blown oien the safe. Two boathouses on Long Island sound, half a mile away from the scene of the explosion, were wrecked. MORE TROOPS FOR NAMDHUR1A. Rusila Is Building Additional Barracks at the Port of Daisy.
