The World' Fair Kate ttrduced (Jreat Mortbi-rn Kminln Train Tbe t'owbojr lUtf. Tillamook, Or., June 19. Tillamook wts swept hy dliisiitroiis Are this morn- ln( and wis almost wiK-i) out, so fur as the IiUhIiici-s part is concerned. AH the hotel are in ashes, and the hank was hurtled. The heart of the town ia in ruins. The di-ad calm that prevailed was all that saved the tew remaining buihlintcs, though many of them are hadly damaged. The fire company did nohlt work, as alno did the citizens. The Are seems to have been the work of incendiaries. Excitement runs bigh, and it Is bard to keep tbe citizens from liank-ing the parties suspected. At 1 o'clock Sunday eight several shots wereflrdbr unknown parties. In an inatant it was found that the large double store of William Olson was on fire. All Hforts to put it out were Ineffectual. The house next door on the slutigh, owned by William Kininniptz, was burned to the ground. The wharf was partially burned. The steamer Garfield got up steam and played on the Ore saving the wharf, tin ak-uiner Improvement and the warb(iue of Colin it Co., with other property. The fire had died out and the people were going to their homes, when there was a cry of fire in another part of the town. In an instant flames shot up from the rear of Ladley's euloon, ami soon the whole building was in Haines. The Allen houe went next, then the barber shon, 0. 0. Nolan's olhce, I'eckam shoe store, the bank, the Laraen Iiouhc, W. C. King's house, and on the other side the Occidental hotel, i!ron' butcher shop, a residence and Colin A Stillwell'a block, occupied by Colin A Co., were soon burning like tin der. It looked like the whole town was doomed. Women and children were running and screaming In all directions. I The origin of the fire is still a mysterv. ' r.... ti ... . i ..niiT imeaun ario Biivmi(:iu, anu oniV the counsel of cooler beads prevented the lynching of the siisiected parties. Suspicion liore heavily on certain per sons, and there u the wildest excite ment. Some parties have knowledge that will be damaging, but it will be brought out later. A faucet in an oil barrel in Iladley's saloon had been turned 0ien and fire applied to the flow ing oil. Pitch had been snread in places. The few stores left are badly damaged. Brick blocks will be commenced at once and the merchants have telegraphed for large lots of goods, which will arrive on the loats tomorrow. It is a terrible blow to t'e town, put the people will build a better town. The work of re pairing has begun and new buildings will be commenced tomorow. Some esti mate the loss at $100,000, though $73,000 is perhaps nearer. Three Oregon Bank. Fall. Albany, Or., June 19. The Linn County bank closed its doors this morn ing. The notice on the door says: "Owing to the stringency in the money market, the bank hereby suspends pay ment. By order of the board of direc tors." IVpoBitors will lie paid dollar for dollar, with a large surplus. J L Cowan, president of the bank, says the deposits amount to alwut $150,000, and that tho assets will exceed the liabilities $80,000 to $100,000. J. A. Crawford, the wealthiest citizen in Albany, and one of the directors, says he will per sonally guarentee every depositor. Among the deposits is $:I3,000 of the county's money, $17,000 of which has Wen apportioned to the public schools. NoolhYial statement has been made. A brauch of the Linn county bank at Lebanon also closed its doors this morn- At noon tbe Bank of Oregon of this city 1ms closed its doors. Cashier Jay W. Bluin says the assets are 50 per cent more than tbe liabilities. The amount of deposits is small. Both failures were caused by a steady withdrawal of depos its for several weeks. A. Bush, of Salem, holds $30,000, and the estate of W, S. Ladd $10,000 of the stock in the Linu County bank. There was $11,000 in cash in the vaults of the bank A telogram from Scio states the Bank of Scio closed its doors upon hearing of the closing of tbe Linn County bank, of which it is a branch. Th Ooloma in Fort. Portland, Or., June 18. The Port land bark Coloma is home once more. She was towed into the harbor at 4 o'clock yesterday morning and was made fast t McCracken'i dock, foot of Davis street, where she will discharge her general cargo of Chinnse goods. The bark left Hong Kong April 27, and made the passage across the Pacific In 47 days, which is very good time, though not the best which Captain Noyeshas recorded, for he once made the passage in 42 days. Captain Noyes reports good weather up to Japan, but the rest of the way it was rough. That Cow Boy Xao. Wasad, Neb., June 18. An expectant crowd of people was on hand at break of day togreet the rider in the cowboy race, this being I heir registering place. At 3 :25 a cheer was raised by tbe crowd, and In a cloud of dust two riders, each leading a horse, trotted op to the Faxon house, dismounted and registered in the following order: Gillepsie lirst, Stevens scond. Five minutes later Doc Mid dleton arrived and went through the same performance. The borses were in good condition and apparently as fresh as the day tliey started. After watering their horses, the riders departed together. Hioux City is 05 miles from this place, and on an excellent road. Ther will without doubt arrive there tomorrow. Middleton had to forbid the people from pulling hair from the tail of bis horse, such was the rush of people to get me mentos from the race. World's Fair Deoltloa. Chicago, June 17. Chief Justice Ful ler this morning overruled the decision of the federal circuit court, which issued an injunction restraining the directors of the World's Fair from opening the gates Sunday. He decided for the United States court of appeals, and remanded the case to the circuit court for a rever sal of its action. The decision means to a certainty that the World's Fair will be kept open Sunday, and that settles the case for all time, as an'appeal would have to go to the supreme court of the United States, which does not meet till October sV-n the Fair will be ended. Every seat was taken fully an hour be fore the time announced when tbe court would decide the case and standing room was exhausted. r.rty of Hamsroni Organisation.. Tot'KK a, .an., June 17. Tbe popti lis's of this state have a new plan of campaign which they are preparing to operate. The scheme is to organize "graduate estate clube'' whose object will be to favor the levying of a tax upon all incomes as follows: One per cent on incomes of $1,000,000 to $5,000,000, 8 per cent on $8'000,000 to $10,000,000. and 10 ierceuton all over $10,000,000. They estimate that such a tax will create a rev enue of about $'-',000,000,(100, and thus reduce the taxation now indirectly paid by the poor people. Clubs will be formed in New York and Pennsylvania by the committee. It is alleged that they will gut aid in the campaigns of those states. The Great Hortharn Banaing Traiaa. Skattlk, June 18. The first passenger train over the Great Northern leit on time this morning, contrary to expecta tions. The equipment was delayed in arriving and did not reach here until 6 o'clock this morning Tbe train was at once made up, however, and left at eight o'clock with a good passenger list. The road bed was found by those on the train bringing the equipment to be in fine order. The only trouble was with a new engine, which did not woik prop erly for several hourft. It is confidently believed that the train will make sched ule time on its trip. fforld'i Fair Kateu Chicago, June 10. Ciiauncey M. Depew was in Chicago today, and ex pressed himself on the World's Fair rates. He said : "The present rates are unquestionably too high, and will come down. The truth of th6 matter is, the reports of the incomplete condition of the fair has caused railroad men to think that no oc casion for lower rates existed, but now that the expositihn is complete, the roads will do the fair thing and put in satis factory rates.

San Fbancisoo, June Hi, A collision oecured late last night on an electric road in which a light wagon containing four persons was run into on a steep grade by an electric car. F.

The Hawaii SstUmal Flat; Raise for tbe First Time Regard ing Aaaexatlon. Pobtla:o, Or. June 19. Disappointed in love and despondent, Misa Caroline P. Marker ended her life at 5:30 Sunday evening by jumping from the Stark street ferry into the waters of the Will amette river. ' She leftber home at No. 153 Thirteenth street about 4 o'clock yesterday after noon, leaving a note for her sister, say ing: "I can't withstand the impulse. Good-bye. CAaaia." She told her sister several days ago that often when she came down tbe street she felt that she could never come back, and had been in a very melancholy state of mind since about April 1. She boarded the ferry at the west side approach , and walked nervously up and down inside the north rail of the ferry until a little past the middie of the stream, when she leaped overboard. L. L. Flynn, an extraman in track company No. 7, who was on the boat, i was the first to collect himself and offer assistance. Flynn jumped overboard and caught the girl before she sank. He succeeded in holding her head out of the water for several minutes, while a rowboat from the shore was rapidly pro ceeding to the rescue. While the row boat was yet quite a distance from them Flyno sank with tbe girl, but a moment after arose, still holding to bis burden. Finally, however, becoming exhausted, the body of the girl slipped from' bis clutches, and Flynn himself was only saved by a man named Daniel jumping faom the rowboat and catching him as he sank. Tbe body of the girl sank to tbe bot tom, and although tbe rowboat was kept in the vicinity for several minutes it did not rise to tbe surface. Returning to the shore, a party with grappling irona went out, followed shortly after by Hugh Brady, the most successful grappler ia Portland. He grappled from 6 o'clock to 10 last night without sucess, and re-" turned to the work shortly after day light this morniug. At 8 :5 his efforts were rewarded and the body of the unfortunate yong lady was recovered. SI IBS Harker was 22 years of age, and was engaged to marry a gentleman re siding in California, named Jamea T. Burtchaell. Mr. Burtchaell was here two years ago, but the young people were not engaged until after that time. Since about April 1, Miss Harker has been very nervous and melancholy, and being usually of a very bright, cheerful dispo sition, her family and friends were greatly worried about her. It was given out that she was ill, and one of tbe causes assigned was the receipt of news that her father was very ill in California at that time. After the return of her sister from Caliiornia in May, she was taken into the confidence of Miss Har ker and learned that her melancholy was due to disappointment in love. Latcat From Hawaii. Honolulu, June 10. For the first time in the history of the Hawaiian Islands the Hawaiian national flag was floated over the palace June 2. The formal occupation of the palace by the provisonal government and the raising of the national emblem over it are re garded by the annexationists generally and by many of the natives as a final blow to the monarchy. The building was formally dedicated to its new uses June 5, with little ceremony, in which the troops, the govenment band and the otlicals participated. June 3 the govern ment paid to Clans Spreckels $95,000 owed to him, and there is a feeling of re lief among the otlicials that the govern ment is no lonorundcr obligations tohim. Spreckels denies that he was actuated by a desire to embarrass the government by demanding the return of money loaned by him. He says it was merely a business transaction ; the debt was overdue and he wanted bis money. The Pioneer Auooiation. Portland. June 15.
