Lytic and Moore Par Him $124,700 and Take Up the Rood's Stoclc IsKne. All litigation between E. E. Lytle and Drake C. O'Reilly, on account of the Co lumbia Southern Railroad, has been set tled for good, and live cases pending in the State And United States Courts were dismissed yesterday. Sir. O'Reilly drops out of the road and E. E. Lytle and Walter H. iloore become owners of the entire Issue of stqck. Mr. O'Reilly re ceived $124,700 in cash for his interest. Of this amount, $134,700 was applied to his 3147 shares of stock, which Xiytle and Moore toot at par, and $10,000 to the matter connected with the extension from Moro to Shaniko. The Moro-Shanlko ac count was submitted to arbitration. It Is said that Mr. O'Reilly expected to get $34,200 on this account, but a compromise was reached at $10,000. The settlement between the litigants was give Jr take, and &e Lytle-Moore people decided to take." If the litigation between Lytic and O'Reilly had been continued it would have bankrupted the Columbia Southern and all connected with it. In the settlement, O'Reilly gets fair vaulatlon for his In terest Lytic and Moore have no reason to complain of their end of the deal, for they have a good property. They are pro gressive men and when the proper time comes they will extend the line Into pro fitable territory. Snow & MrCamant were Lytle's at torneys. O'Day & Tarplcy and Williams, Wood & Linthlcum acted for O'Reilly. SOUTHERN" PACIFIC MEETTXG. Georgre Gould and Member of Harrl- man Syndicate Elected Members. NEW YORK, April 3. At a meeting to day of the Southern Pacific Company In this city, the following directors Tvero elected: T. J. Coolidge, Jr.; George J. Gould, E. H. Harriman Edwin Hawley. Charles M. Hays, H. E. Huntington, James H. Hyde, Otto H. Kuhn, J. W. .Mackay, 3D. O. JMills, Winslow S. Pierce, J, H. Schiff, James Speyer, James Still snan and Charles H. Tweed. The new board has seven members of the Union Pacific syndicate -which recently acquired control of the Southern Pacific, seven of the old Huntington representatives of the road, and George J. Gould, a?ew director, -who was a member of the Harriman syn dicate, is expected to act In their interest. Charles H. Tweed was re-elected chair anan of the board of directors of tne Southern Pacific The following execu tive committee was elected: G-eorge J. Gould, E. H. Harriman, Edwin Hawley, Otto H. Kuhn, Jacob H. Schiff, James Sperer, James Stlllman, with Charles H. Tweed ex-officlo. E. H. Harriman was elected chairman of the executive com anittee. Chairman Tweed said that no other business of public importance was transacted. The Mall and Express, discussing Mr. Gould's election to the Southern Pacific hoard, says: "The election of Mr. Gould is probably of more significance from the point of view of possible developments In the rail road than that of any other director. His system Is In a sense independent of the transcontinental lines, but In formulat ing what has been termed the 'Greater Missouri Pacific system It is believed he will have to make an alliance with some of them. It is to be supposed from today's developments that the Missouri Pacific will In the future use the Central Pacific from Ogden to the coast. By the acquisition of the Rio Grande Western and the" "Denver & Rio Grande, it no-n has a through line from St. Douis to Ogden." CHAXGE IX SHIPMENTS. Bulk of Coeur d'AIene Ore 2Vow Gocit by Short Line and O. R. & A. BOISE, Idaho, April 3. An Important change has been made with reference to the handling of ores from the Coeur d'Alenes. Although it has been Ttept quiet, it was divulged here today. Hitherto practically all the ore from that section has been transported over the Northern Pacific Since some time last month the larger proportion of these ores has been handled by the O. R. & N. Co. and the Oregon Short Dine. No information was given as to the cause for this change. It is true, how ever, that the bulk of the ore from that famous section now goes east via the Short Line, and that it has right of way over all but perishable freight. This business gives a great Increase to the traffic -of the Short Dine, as the output of concentrates from the Coeur d'Alenes is very large. Change in Reading- Directory. PHILADELPHIA, April 3. The Board of Directors of the Reading Company, at a meeting this afternoon, accepted the resig nation of President Joseph S. Harris, and appointed George E. Baer to succeed him. President Harris will remain with the company in an executive position. Mr. Baer was also elected president of the Philadelphia & Reading and the Reading Coal & Iron Company. Mr. Harris, was chosen a member of the executive com mittee of the Reading Company and elect ed a member of the board of directors. The G. A. R. Rate. CHICAGO, April 3. Passenger officials of Eastern roads will meet here next Wednesday to settle upon arrangements for the encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, which is to be held at Cleveland in September. They will vote upon a proposition to grant a rate of a cent a mile for the reunion. It is known that the officials of some roads are not favorable to the granting of such a rate, holding that all available equipment can be used more advantageously in the Pan American Exposition traffic It is regard ed as almost certain, however, that the precedent set several years aco will cause the roads to grant the cent-a-mlle rate. Atohixon Monthly Meeting. NEW YORK, April 3. The regular monthly meeting of the Atchison directors "was held today, but no action was taken in regard to a dividend on the common shares. This question, however, was made a special order for the May meetin. Another Transcontinental Line. DUBUQUE. la.. April 3. The Chicago, Dubuque & Pacific Railroad filed articles of incorporation today. The company pro poses to build a line from Dubuque south, probably to the Pacific Coast. The in corporators are Iowa men. The Pen and the Ax. Kansas City Star. The newspaper reporters In New York exert a political influence that is not gen erally understood. It is not in the way of molding public opinion, but in bringing about events within the party organiza tions. When Governor Odell displayed reat firmness and grasp, the reporters simultaneously haw that the great po litical event would be the downfall of Boss Piatt at the hands of Odell. Ac cordingly they proceeded to write along this line and. devise complications which would precipitate a conflict between Piatt and the coadjutor leader. In 'other "words, the political reporters In New York are always working in ad vance of the actual happening. It was the same way when Richard Croker came back from England and deposed Sheehan from the leadership of Tam many Hall. The reporters reckoned that the big story ought to be the return of Croker and the Jail of Sheehan. So they txuraa writing it as the coming- event. Croker returned, but for some time der nled that he was dissatisfied with Shee han. Denials were useless, however. The reporters insisted that the two men were at outs, that Croker was the big boss and must rule, and Sheehan would have to go. And he did. With the "basis of Odell's strong char acter to work upon the New York news papers finally announce the surrender of Piatt. HORSES FOR ALASKA. Big- Demand for Animals In the Far North. Horses have become such valuable prop erty in the Yukon region that J. J. Mor gan, who has been taking cittle up there for several years past, has about made up his mind to take a band of horses this time and leave his fat beeves at home. "A hoise that is worth $120 here is worth $500 at Dawson," Mr. Morgan said yes terday at the Perkins, "though there Is no telling how soon the market will be flooded with horses there, and so there is some risk In the venture. Parties have been taking horses in over the ice all Winter, and have done well thereby, but I will not start from here until the 15th of next month, as I will take the stock down the Yukon In a steamer from White Horse Rapids. Draught horses are need ed on the Klondike, while the lighter horses, for packing purposes, at Circle City and points on the lower river are more in demand. The packhorses brought Into Alaska last year have all died from starvation, as the Winter was unusually severe. When horses get down poor In that latitude, the chill air proves too much for them, and both fodder and shel ter were very scarce there the past sea son. One of the McNamer boys, who left Portland for Circle City, in January, has written from Dawson, that of 14 horses left near Circle City, all had suc cumbed to hunger and cold, and so a fresh supply of horses would be needed, from the States. "Horseowners In Oregon have therefore an additional market in Alaska for their stock and should get good prices for their animals this Summer. Both the American and British Armies need Or egon horses, while the growth of the country at large also increases the de mand, as new farms are being opened up, new logging camps started, and new railroads are being constructed. The out look for the horse industry is very bright, and will continue so for several years, as It takes four or five years to produce a full-grown horse. Breeders became dis couraged a few years ago, as there was no demand for their animals and so let their business go largely by default. It would have been better for them if they had kept right on, in the light of subse quent events." AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND. Mrs ADS Johnston & son.

BEECH-STREET SEWER. Wide Misunderstanding of Property Ovrncrs as to Assessment. There is considerable misunderstanding In regard to the proposed Beech-street sewer system in Multnomah addition, al- though it appears that a large major-' Ity of the people there are anxious for the construction of the system. It could be easily 'seen at the meeting Tuesday evening that the conditions are not alto together understood. The statement was made by Dr. L. M. Davis that he should favor the sewer if the assessment of the costs were equitable and fair, but that there was no hope that this would be done. He contended that it would be all right for the owners of property, whose lots and blocks are on the streets in which the main conduit Is laid, for -they get a direct benefit, but those a long distance off pay for something they do not get and for the benefit of the first class of property-owners. On this ground he based his opposition that the assessment was bound to be unfair and unequal. A simple statement of the situation will explain the method of assessment. Not all property in a sewer district Is on the streets In which the main conduit is laid, but outside these streets in which the mains are placed the property Is served by laterals. Each lot and block bears its proportionate share of the cost. The as sessment of the cost Is made so that each lot or block pay exactly the same In pro portion to the benefits received, so that when a sewer system Is completed, the main conduit laid and laterals in, each man owning property In the district, no mater whether he be near or remote from the main conduit, pays practically the same. If in the Beech-street sewer system lots on the streets in which the main con duit is are asessed $40. then lots remote from the conduit pay ?25 and $20, so that when the laterals are put In the outside property-owners pay practically the same as the man whose lot abuts the main sewer. Such assessment, it Is asserted, Is exactly just and fair. It was stated that the cost per lot in the Beech-street sewer system would run up to $200. An Inquiry was made of the city officials yesterday, and the idea was laughed at, and assurances are given that the highest cost will not be one-fourth that amount. The Beech-street and -the Cook-avenue districts will bear the cost of the construction of the big conduit through the terminal grounds for the rea son both will use it Roth districts- take In a large territory, and the cost per lot will be small. It Is not known just what the cost will be to build this conduit through the terminal grounds for the rea son, said an .official, that there is some marsh land to pass over. There are about 1000 feet of this,- conduit for which both districts pay jointly. Another matter is pointed out by those favoring the sewer. Multnomah addition Is growing. The cesspools are generally reported in bad condition, and will have to be rebuilt entirely. To build a first class cesspool will cost from $60 to $75. Now, it is positively asserted that the main conduit and laterals in the district complete wHl cost each lot much less than $60. It Is even estimated that the cost per lot may be no more than $40 through out the district, Including laterals. Ii! the sewer be defeated, the Health Officer will require wholesale construction of cesspools each of which will cost not less than $60, and maybe more, throughout the district. This is the situation. Full Information can be had at the office of the -City En gineer. The maps there show everything in connection with the Beech-street sewer system, and there need be no misunder standing of the conditions, probable cost and methods of assessments. CURE FOR LEECH. Recipe Found Successfully a Sheep Grovrer. CRESAVELD, Or., April 2. To the Ed itor.) As others are giving their ideas of. leech In sheep, I will add my t mite. I have Ttnown the disease here for 'years as leech, but that is about all I knew of It until a few years ago, when I lost about one-half of a flock of sheep, which had been pastured the year before on swale land. ,t dissected, several of them, and in no case found any' leech, euch as I have found in cattle, but most of the livers were filled with flukes parasites which att-Un a 'length of about 14 Inche and are shaped very much,tlike an ash leaf, the head anoV'neck, corresponding to the stem of iq. leaf?f -ft They appear iq sap the substance of the blood and leave it thin, and watery, caus ing a kind of dropsy. In all cases dis sected a tumor or water bag was found entirely encircling the upper part of the heaft. After trying numerous remedies without any apparent effort, I used com mon baking soda, a' little mixed in their salt, and gave some of the worst cases a tablespoonf ul, , after which I never lost but one sheep. The next Fall this same flock were treated according to the following receipt, and not one was lost from leech the next Winter and Spring: Saltpeter, 14 ounces, powdered ginger, one! ounce; carbonate of Iron one-halt ounce; salt, one pound; boiling water, three quarts. Mix the above, and when nearly cool add nine ounces of spirits of turpentine. Keep well stirred when using. Keep the sheep from feed over night, then glVe two ounces of the mixture and keep from feed for three hours. Repeat the dose every fourth day lor two weeks. A horn 'with the point cut off. Is good for giving the above with. As some of my sheep were almost dead' and "recovered, I believe the disease is curable. J. W. WALKER. TOLERANCE FOR 'ALL. Christian Scientists'Adviscd to Emu late the Jews. r PORTLAND, April 3. (To -the Editor.) My attention was called to a letter In defense of Christian Science from the pen of Mr. G. R. Higglns, recently published In The Oreggonian. I fully concur with Mr. Higglns that the true believer In and practitioner of Christian Science does not deserve the appellation of Insane. Curing one's ail ment by prayer of a godly' man Is not Christian Science It Is as old as Moses, the Lawgiver (Numbers, xil: 13). But as "there arose not a prophet since In Israel like unto Moses" (Deuteronomy xxxlv:10), this cure was abandoned, and the godly man was- substituted by physician, and Ijrayer by balm (Jeremiah vili:22). ' That belief lr. the means pf a cure is mostly a perfect success to the sick Is a matter of fact. Professor Menaseln, In ,hle treatise on belief and superstltition '(St. Petersburg, 1875). gives many in stances where Russian peasants were cured of sickness by their clergy's apply ing the holy water or by muttering cer tain formulas by ignorant old peasant women. The nearest appellation to healing by belief may be superstition, but by no 'means insanity. What do not agree with Mr. HIggins is his interpretation of Mark xvi:17, "shall 'they cast out devils," evils, insan ity. If Mr. Higglns does not believe In the existence or devils, how will he ex plain Mark. v:15, "And thgy come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion." . . . Also verses 16, 18, Luke xl:14, and mostly how about the devils, of whom It Is told that Jesus cast them out and they went into the herd of swine? (Matthew viii:2S, 32; Mark v:12; Luke vlll:33.) Do all those devils mean evil and insanity? Cannot or will not Mr. Higglns swallow those mira cles in their real sense? If not, he would have to consult Mark xvl:16, on which Christian Science Is based, according to his opinion. As a Jew, I do not believe in Christian Science, nor In the miracles told in the New Testament, but I would advise the critics of those scientists (and'by the way, also, those bigots, generally , known by the name missionaries), to follow the tol erance of the Jew, based on the policy of Prophet Micah (lv:5): "As to all nations, let them walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord, our God, for ever and ever." This policy would surely place brother hood Instead of strife, and harmony in stead of' enmity. REV. DR.' N. MOSESSOHN. -DAILY CITY STATISTICS. Blarrinpe ' Licenses. G. W.

Officials of the State Department are reported to have repudiated informally in anonymous interviews the department's blundering recognition of the British an-, nexation of the Dutch republics.

The use of Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription will cure the debilitating drains, the in flammation, ul ceration and displacement which cause backache, side ache, headache and manv other aches and pains. " Favorite Pre scription " con tains no alcohol and is absolutely free from opi um, cocaine and other narcotics. It agrees with the most deli cate persons. "I took your medicine six mouths and I feel now like a n'w person," writes Miss Annie Stephens, of BeUville. Wood Co.. W. Va. Have no backache, no headache, no pain anywhere.
