The only criminal case of importance Is that of Br. Von Grueningen, charged with manslaughter in having killed Fred Ber itccher.

Under the present .law the District Attorney can tile an information against Von Geningen If the evidence before him justifies such a course. Injunction Suit. - G. W. Allen yesterday .filed jsuit against L. D. McArdle and the Co-operative In vestment Company in the State Circuit Court, to enjoin the sale or Incumbrance of the undivided on6-half of lot 2, block 77, 'Portland, three lots' at Highland Park, and a lot at WoodIawn. Allen in his com plaint alleges that he holds a judgment against "McArdle for $1524, rendered by the Superior Court in the State of Washing ton, and placed upon the records of Multnomah County in December, 1900. At that time the property previously referred to and also 21 lots at Highland Park were attached. McArdle, it is stated, owns the undivided one-half of lot 2, block 77, Portland, in common with M. Billings, and the German Savings & Loan So ciety holds a. mortgage against the prop erty for $10,000. The charge is made that four days before the attachment was levied McArdle conveyed his undivided one-half Interest to the Co-operative In vestment Company for the purpose of covering up his ownership and hindering his creditors, the consideration being $10, and it is further asserted that three lots at Highland Park and the Woodlawn lot described as lot 11, block 39, are held by the Investment company for the same reason. In conclusion it Is averred that McArdlg is endeavoring to negotiate with Innocent third parties with the intention of putting the property out of his reach, and that of his creditors, and it Is asked that he be enjoined from selling or mort gaging It The court granted the cus tomary preliminary restraining order, pending a hearing of the case.

Spokane Man Thinks 'Little of the Island as a Mining: Camp. Among the returning members of the Thirty-fifth United States Volunteers, Is Corporal Martin Markson, of Spokane, who left Portland as a private for Ma nila, October 4, 189S. Corporal Markton had previously served seven years In the 164th Regiment Russian Infantry, and. so was not a stranger to military life. He found an agreeable change in Uncle Sam's service, he said yesterday, as the disci pline was not so severe as under the Czar; in fact, the American boys are permitted to growl overmuch, while in the Russian service the soldiers dare not speak a word of disapproval, under fear of the knout. The Thirty-fifth began active service the week it landed in Luzon, the Corporal said, and his discharge, Thlch dubs him "honest and faithful," gives him credit for two all-night engagements at Car mino,. the capture of San Miguel, skir mishes at Burrlos Parabascal, Balaboa Hill, Mount Corona and th'e engagement at Epo, the lest-mentloned occurring Jan uary IS, of this year. Although enlisting as a private, Martin Markson was possessed of considerable property in Spokane, and in the adjacent mining country. He was careful to make his will before departing with his regi ment, kaving his estate partly to the Odd Fellows lodge, at Spokane, and part ly to his sister, Mrs. Willlain N. Robin son, of Portland. Beyond a prolonged at tack of malaria, however, he passed through his 18 months' service unscathed, and hopes to regain his health complete ly on his return to the more agreeable climate and wholesome food of Eastern Washington. He considers organized rebellion virtual ly over In the Philippines, but thinks It will be many years before Americans can travel through the country unarmed, as there is a deep-seated hatred among the Filipinos, which Is stimulated by their priests. "If Uncle Sam would use harsh measures with these friars, he said, "It would serve to hasten universal peace, but thus far our Government has been too lenient with them, permitting them to secrete arms and give aid to the rebels without calling them to account." Like meat of the soldiers who have served in the interior fit Luzon, he does not think the locality fit for whites to live In. The weather Is humid and hot, and there is no way to guard against malaria. His .own health was badly bro ken, although he tried to live as carefully as he could. He said he had heard a good deal of the mineral resources of Luzon and took ad vantage of his visit to the mountains of the interior, by doing a little prospecting along the route, but found no traces of gold or silver. He brought back some specimens of pyrites of iron, and also some lead and copper ore. but feels sure that little or no gold exists there. A lit tle fine gold, he said, may be found In the beds of some of the streams, but npt enough to make t the business of mining pay. NAVIGATING THE YUKON, It is No Picnic Steaming 1800 'Miles ARalnst Strong- Current. Captain James T. Gray, who has been steamboating on the Yukon for the last two or three Summers, Is looking forward to going up there again before long. He says boating on the Yuk6n Is quite a different thing from boating on the Co lumbia. The distance from St. Michaels to Dawson Is 1S00 miles, and a round trip occupies SO to 40 days, long enough to go to China and back. There Is no still water on the Yukon. The current Is al ways running from three to eight miles an hour, and If a boat stops her wheel she begins to go down stream at one?. In such a long journey It is impossible to remember all the channels, snags, bars, etc., and a captain has to note down all such things, and he has also to learn to read the water. The trip lip the river Is a very tiresome one. There are about 20 places to stop at on the trip, and a great deal of time Is taken up In wooding. Some of the larger boats burn 75 cords- o wood per day, and It takes about half the time to get this on board the boats. Last season there were four boats of 1200 tons plying on the river. In supplying water to the boilers, great care has to be taken to prevent sand from getting In. Seven boilers were burned out In one trip last fall on account of sand and mud. Last season there were 29 steamers running on the Yukon, aggregating a capacity of not less than 20,000 tons, and there were also 32 barges, having a capacity of 12,000 tons. This was owing. to the Nome excitement. This year Captain Gray saysvthere will not be more than half as many boats on the Yukon. The season for boating there is short, lasting from about July "20 to September 1. a RECEIVED HIS .INSTRUCTIONS Consul Colvigr "Will Leave for Colom bia Late This Month. George W. Colvlg, of Grant's Pass, re cently appointed Consul to the port of Barranquilla, Colombia, Is at the Impe rial. He has Just returned from Washing ton City, whither he had been summoned to receive Instructions, and expects to leave for his post of duty May 29. Barranquilla, he says, Is a city of "40,000 Inhabitants, situated at the mouth of the Rio Magdalena, which empties into the Caribbean 'Sea. Its latitude is 12 degrees north of the equator, and being thus with in the tropics, Mr. Colvlg expects to find the weather somewhat warmer than that of Oregon. - While in Washington Mr. Colvlg met Consul-General Baupre, residing at Bogo ta, the capital of the republic, who in formed him that Barranquilla is a pleas ant and healthful place to live in. and. possesses quite an .important commerce. Mr. Colvlg will be accompanied by "his wife and Miss Dora Colvlg,, a- niece, and expects to reach ils destination, via San Francisco, Panama and AsplnwalL He hopes the Insurrection which now en grosses the attention of the-Colombians will be settled by-the time his partjr ar rives there. 366 DAYS IN ONE YEA'R Not In 190L but "there will be In 1204.'

Keverabtr Election KetTS Does Not Reads. Kerne Until February 6 H Other Nome Items. Two letters have recently been received from Jesse C. Morgan, a well-known young man of this city, who is -now In Nome. The letters were received by his .family, who reside at 431 Montgomery street. One of the letters, which bears date of January 25, describes the fearful blizzard which wrought -such havoc at Nome on January 19. Among other things the letter says: "The last blizzard froze quite a'number of people, and they are being brought in every day. Relief parties are being sent out to different places where parties are badly frozen and without grub. One party left this morning for the head of Nome River, where 17 people are gath ered, in one Igloop all .of -whom are too badly frozen to travel, and several are still further on at St. Mary's Igloo, dead." An Igloo, it should be explained, Is a native or Esquimaux' .hut. Mr. .Morgan's second letter is dated Feb ruary 6, and states that the news of the election of McKlnley and Roosevelt was received only the night before, and then the only Intelligence received was a brief item in a paper pubusned in Kampart City, which Is up the river from St. Mich aels. Mr. Morgan inclosed in this let ter a Nome paper, the News, of Feb ruary 6, which announces under a three column head that "McKInley andi Roose velt Sweep the Electoral College," .and that John R. Rogers has been re-elected Governor of Washington. This Is all the election news that the paper contains. The News also tells of the murder on December 17, 'of J. L. MuTdowney, a clerk In the North American Trading & Trans portation Company's store at Rampart. The murder was committed by Dan Caro lan, who acused Muldowney of being too friendly with his wife. The wife Is an Indian woman, the daughter of John MInook, one of the most prominent In dians In the Yukon country. The News also brands the stories of rich discoveries in the Kuskowlm coun try "as fakes, and prints a harrowing story told by some returning"" miners who were lured Intoa stampede for that sec tlon.

The 'ledges are therefore exposed and the expense 'of shafts and pumping Is obviated. FAIR RETURNS FROM PLACERS Portland Man's First. Experience in - Doaglas County Dirt. - James Jansen,. a t former - Portlander, who has been placer mining in Douglas County since last Fall, returned yester day with a goodly supplyof coarse gold and nuggets, which he disposed of .at $16 an ounce. "He considered himself well repaid for the. time spent although this was his first attempt at mining and he had considerable, to learn. ... The claim upon which he worked Is sit uated In Canyon Creek Mid. was wholly the, property of John J&onroe., until Mr. Jansen purchased a half .interest; 'n It last Fall. Abdndance 6f water for running six months In each year is obtained through iialfTmile ditch tapping Canyon Creek, and .a good fall enables the moni tor to wash away the three feet of gravel -that lies between the surface and the bedrock. " After the gravel Is piped off the bedrock is scraped Into slluce, boxes and thus the -cold ts secured; Mr. Jansen; fig- j ured that the claim produced S a day to the man on the average. Of the 30 acres, not one whole acre has yet been, washed off Into Cow Creek, but a careful estimate shows that $22,000 has been taken from -that area. The gold runs In nuggets of $3 50 In value down, and being all. coarse, aio quicksilver is needed in sav ing it. "'He thinks mining In Southern Oregon is oneof the pleasantest occupations in the world, as the Winter climate Is mild -and the elevation-of "the diggings renders the locality healthful. Scarcity ef 'fresh provisions was the only draw back, as his camp Is 10 miles distant from Riddles station, with a high, rugged ridge Intervening. He expects, the ensuing .Summer, to fit up the mine with a more modern equipment ana Detter sjock ot supplies, so that much more ground may be worked off next rainy season, at a great deal less expense and inconvenience.

EAST SIDE MATTERS. Petition to CoHntr Coart for East Barnslde Street Extension. A petition -will be presented to the County Court on the 10th of the month, asking- for the opening and extension of East Burnslde street from the city limits to a connection of Edison avenue at the intersection of Davidson avenue. This pe tition has, been .circulated In Center Ad dition and in the district Interested, re ceiving a considerable number of signa tures. Still the extension will not have clear sailing, as some whose property the street will pass through are not pleased with the prospect of losing a slice of land. However, the benefits will be very great should the street be opened, as It Will be sooner or later. Montavilla Is anxious to get a direct street to the Burn-, side bridge and the Sub-Board of Trade for that place Is working for this pur pose. For the extension of the street to the city limits the preliminaries have been started by the City Council in the ap pointment of viewers. Was Modern Crib. Worlc. Just" now the people of Sellwood and University Park are reading all the his tory .they' can get hold of concerning the visit of Captain Clark up the Wil lamette River. That he came up the Wll amette and stayed a night or two at an Indian village near a wappato lake there Is no doubt. -Both Sellwood and University Park have claims to the honor of being the place the exp'brer stopped. At a recent meeting, the Sellwood Sub- Board of Trade had the matter under dis cussion when" the statement was made that Clark harf lept in a log houie and that the place where this log cabin had stood In City View Park could be seen. An elderly gentleman, -who had listened Intently to the discussion, arose and said that there could be no mistake whatever about the remains of the old log cabin in which the explorer passed the night be ing seen. He had seen the old bottom logs that formed the foundation of this cablrtmany a time, and he could take any one right to where the "crib could beS found. As he sat down another man in the audience arose and said that he nan no doubt the crib work was still there, as ne naa. neipea Duna it bdoui zu years ago when the lake was filled with wappa- tos and was good shooting grounds.
