As soon as S. H. Doty's body was

P. E. Heikamann, a civil engineer, of
this city ; W. T. Radir, a timber locator,
of Portland, and A. J. Cioutrie, of Sea

with' that section of country ,
This afternoon "Indian Louie" re

turned to give the news, while Bnike
continued to search for the body of Clou
trie. According to information received,
there were no marks of violence on the
bodies, and the cause of their death ran
at the present time only be surmised,
but it is generally supposed that it was
the result of eating poisoned canned
meat or vegetables.
A party started out from Seanide this
afternoon to bring back the bodies, but
it may be several days before they ar
rive, as it is about 15 mites through a
very rough country. Some writing may
be found on one of the bodit b that will
explain the cause of the cruisers' deaths,
but it now appears quite certain that
they had been dead longer than at first
supposed. The last entry in the field
notes found on Dotv was dated April 9, J
only two days after the party started out
from Seaside.
P. K. Heikaman was 38 years of age
and a native of Germany. His father is
now a major in the German army. lie
came to this country about 20 years ago
and was employed for several years in
the engineering department of the Union
Pacific at Omaha. He moved to Astoria
in June, 1889, and had since followed
his profession of civil engineer in this
city. He was once elected city surveyor.

A. J. Cioutrie was 65 years of age. He
came to this county from Portland about
four years ego, and lived atSereide most
of the time.
"Indian Louie" today made the fol
lowing statement :
"My opinion is that Cioutrie got hurt
in some way and they all stayed with
him until he died, meantime exhausting
all their provisions, matches, etc. After
Cioutrie died they evidently were lost,
and wandered about seeking to recover
their bearings. Whether or not the sup
position that the death of any or all of
the parly was due to poisoning from
canned meats or other edibles is true,
there was nothing in their surroundings
to indicate. Cioutrie wan one of the
most practical woodsmen in this section
of country. According to the notes
found on Doty's body, the party was
through its work and on its way out."
TREASON ABROAD.
Otis Intercepts Messages Urging
Volunteers to Revolt.
Washington, April 22 General Ctis
cables the pi evident that he has inter
cepted many cables and messages from
politicians and state leaders in America
to volunteers in the Philippines urging
the men to 6tand on their rights and re
fuse the government further service,
now that peace is formally and finally
declared. The president has instructed
General Otis to rend copies of the same
messages and all evidence he can find
of sedition there, and it is believed that
some one may be dealt with harshly for
treason and sedition.
General Otis considers the offence
grave, and as th messages are clearly
within the law against sedition, he has
held up all such and notified Washing
ton. In this connection government officials
are greatly pleased with the expression
of Governor Geer, c f Oregon, who de
clares it would be a disgrace to the state
unjust to the Oregon volunteers
to
request their return at a time when it
would embarass the administration and
jeopardize our success in the Philip
pines. Colonel Smith Promoted.
Wasiiiggton, April 24. The pres
ident has appointed Colonel James F.
Smith, of the First California regiment,
to be a brigadier-general of volunteers.
The regiment is now in the Philippines.
General Smith will be assigned to one of
the briirades of General Otis' array.
