EXACT C0PVOT?LfHAPSEB LOOK IN GUN MUZZLE Baker City and St. Louis Men Give Up Their Valuables. BANDIT WORKS NEAR SUMPTER Secure $300 From Art Harris and ?70 From Colonel Stewart Cloth ing, Refreshments and Cigars v Go With the Money. BAKER CITY, Or., Sept 27. Manager Art Harris, tbf the Gelser Grand Hotel, of this city, and Colonel E. E.- Stewart, of the Simmons Hardware Company, St. Louis, were held up by a lone highway man, several miles above Sumpter near Hanover while on their way to the Moun tain View mine yesterday morning. They were relieved of all theirbelong lngs including cash, clothing in their grips, cigars and other refreshments. Mr. Harris lost over $300 in cash and Mr. Stewart was relieved of about $70. They could not give a very clear description of the robber. Mr. Harris said the gun used was a very large one; the hole In the muzzle was apparently as large as the mouth of a mine tunnel by the road side. The robber made good his escape and no trace of .him has been discovered. The victims returned to this city this evening. SALEM. "WILL BE LARGER. Over 14,000 People "Will Be Included In STeir Boundaries. SALEM, Sept. 25. (Special.) On Octdber 1 the change in the Salem city charter defining the municipal boundaries tvIU go into effect, and then the "Greater Salem" will be a reality. The population of the present Incorporation, as shown by the last Federal census, was less than 5000. It is claimed that within the new lines there "will ,be a population of 14,500. There has been some talk of litigation for the purpose of testing the validity of the new amendment to the charter, the ground lor the suit being that the Inhabitants of the added territory will be required to pay off a portion of the city debt, which the outsiders claim they did not help to incur. Whether a. suit will be brought is not known. Next Monday evening the members of the City Council will hold an informal meeting to discuss with representatives of the suburbs the question of new ward boundaries. The plan of the present Coun cil is to create three new wards ono north of town, one east and ono south, giving each new ward two Councilmen. This will make six Councilmen from the new territory and eight from the old. "Wheth er this can Jbe agreed upon with satisfac tion to the inhabitants of the new terri tory is the problem. Since the greater Salem will contain 14, 500 inhabitants, and the old city contained but 5000, It is clear that some 9500 persons reside In tho new territory- To give 5000 persons eight representatives and 9500 per sons only six, may seem inequitable, but this discrepancy is made up by the fact that the heavier property interests are in side the old boundaries. The principal purpose of the change In the city boundaries was to give the city control of sanitary affairs, sidewalks and criminal cases in the suburbs. Because the extension of the city boundaries prom ised municipal improvement, a consider able number of residents of the outside territory favored the change, although It entailed a heavier tax. A city Board of Health has been created, and this board will orgariize for "Business next "Wednes day. It Is expected that the board, will take active measures for the Improvement, of sanitary conditions all over the city. Under the vigorous' policy of Street Com missioner George S. Grlswold Salem's side walks, crosswalks and streets have under gone a radical change for the better dur ing the past year, and the residents of suburban districts hope to see uniform and continuous sidewalks constructed on all the traveled streets of their localities. This will probably be accomplished, though It will take time. The change In the city boundaries was also brought about largely through local pride. The people of Salem were cha grined to have the fact published to the world that Salem is a town of less than 5000 inhabitants. The next official census will be taken In 1903. under state authority, and then the real population will be shown. After the close of this month the capital city of Oregon will claim a population of 14,500. CORONER STOPS A FUNERAL. Finds Seattle Child Died of Formal dehyde in Milk. SEATTLE, Sept 27. Coroner Hoye yes terday stopped the funeral of a 10-months-old child on the way to the cemetery and toeld an autopsy over the body at the morgue, which .resulted In finding that the child died from drinking milk con taining formaldehyde. The milk was pur chased from a local dairy which Is not yet named by the officers, but arrests will probably be made. The proprietors will be charged with murder. The parents of the child are Greeks, speaking little English. Dr. Ludlow, City Health Officer, attended the child and re fused to sign certificates, that the Infant died from natural causes. He communicat ed his suspicions to the Coroner, who at once took steps to Investigate: BROWNED IN A PUDDLE DEAD MAN'S HANDS GRIPPED ON A TREE ROOT. Water Barely -Sufficient to. Cover Face of a Corpse Found Near Walla Walla. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Sept. 27. (Special.) The corpse of an unknown man was found lying face down in six Inches of water two miles below here, In Mill Creek, this morning, with the hands tight ly clasped around a root as If .a deter mined suicide had been responsible for death, and the remains decomposed so badly as to make the probable date two or three weeks ago. A pathetic clue Is given by a letter in his pocket from Frederick B. Graham, or Grant Danville, Va stating that on ac count of failure In business Mr. Grant is unable to send him money to come home to Virginia, Grant is evidently the uncle of the deceased. Murder Is possible, or the man may have fallen down the steep bank when Intoxicated. No one has iden tified the body. Articles of Incorporation. SALEM, Or., Sept 26. (Special.)

Railway Sure Now. ABERDEEN. Wash., Sept 27. (Spe cial.) All doubt which has existed in the minds a. some business men of Gray's Harbor as to the building of an electric line between this city and Hoqulam has been quieted by the arrival of a -large consignment of rails. Until the rails reached here there has been an Impression that the work being done was to hold the franchise with the possibility of sale.

GARFIELD, Wash.. Sept. 27. (Special.) One of the most destructive fires In tho history of Garfield took place last night, when the big Implement and carriage house at the corner of Main and First streets, owned by Farnsworth & Fosterm, and the Mechanics' Hotel,- but a few feet distant on Main street, owned by John Drew, and occupied by Charles Grant, burned to the ground with their contents. The fire was discovered at 11:30 P. M. In the Farnsworth Sc Foster building. A general .alarm was sounded, and in less than 20 minutes the lire department was , Washington side, and McNamara chose No Trouble in Gettinpr Food From Kindhenrted Ranchers on the Way Wounds Not Serious.- HILLSBORO, Or.. Sept. 27 (Special.) J. H. Hamlin, alias Burke, whose esca pades In avoiding officers of the law were terminated by a couple of bullets from Sheriff Belsicker's revolver, six miles from Vancouver, Saturday night, Is now safely behind the waljs of the Hlllsboro jair, from which he escaped. The officers wished to take no chances with him, as he has proven himself a very elusive Indi vidual. Sheriff Sewell accordingly went to Vancouver as soon as word of the cap ture reached him. The wounded man's condition was not considered such as to prevent him from traveling, and the officer left at once with him, first adorning his wrists with a pair of shiny new handcuffs. The pair reached here in a coupe this afternoon and at once drove to the jail. Burke was rather a sorry looking sight. He was very pale and haggardnd plainly showed the effects of his IS days at large, during which time he kept the officers of three counties guessing. He explained his success in keeping out of sight, yester day, by saying that he traveled only dur ing the dark hours of the night, sleeping and hiding in the brush during the day time. He declared that he did not suffer much from hunger, having found the op portunities for foraging along his route excellent. He said he got out of jail In the night, and In company with McNamara, the other prisoner, who was captured three days later, made for Portland. They fol lowed down tho Columbia to the Cas cades, where Burke crossed over to the three-crown layers, $1.55r two-crown Lon don layers, $L45; four-crown standard, loose, Muscatels, 7 cents per pound; throe crown standard, loose.

Burke says he continued down the river, passed through Portland, and again recrossed the river and took to the woods.

Returns Made Show an Increased Valuation of Nearly $1,500,000. ASTORIA, Or.. Sept 27. (Special.) As sessor Cornelius has completed the 1903 assessment roll and will submit it to the Board of Equalization on Monday. It shows an Increase In property valuations In the county of $1,455,943 over the 1902 roll. That there would be a considerable In crease was expected as all the officials admit that heretofore the assessments have "been much too low, and reports have been current that the whole of the In crease, or at least the burden of It, would be upon the timber lands.' This, however, Is not true, as the values of nearly every class of property have been raised. N There has been, though, an effort this year to secure a more equitable assess ment of timber lands. To accomplish this, cruisers were employed by the county and they have made an estimate of each Individual claim, segregating the land Into classes, according to,the amount of timber on each and the location. In fixing the values the Assessor has made a rule of taking the lowest estimate of tho. cruisers. In this way the values, have been rear ranged to a considerable extent and more Acuity that the firemen succeeded In con- at his brother's home, where he was cap- fining the fire to the Implement-house and tho hotel. The total los sof property is estimated at $10,200, as follows: Loss on Implement-house and contents, $S000; on hotel and contents, $2200. Farns worth & Foster were Insured for $2700. The hotel owned by John Drew was in sured for $900. The hotel was occupied by Charles Grant, who yesterday sold his lease and furniture to an Eastern man, who was to take charge In a few days. The man Is a cripple, and It is said he paid out the last dollar he had for the property and lease. Foster and Farnsworth are both young men of excellent business ability. They have been here in business only IS months, but have built up a heavy trade with the farmers in that time. They did not even save their books, which contained several thousand dollars of accounts that had been run during the harvest season that Is just closing. They are undecided as to whether they will resume business again. Cures Nervous Dyspepsia.

An examination of the man's wounds showed that the bullet which struck his arm passed through the fleshy part and did no damage to speak of. The other bul let is Imbedded in his groin, and an op eration will be necessary to extract it. More concerning his criminal record Is being learned by the officers every day. It has developed that he passed worthless checks on two Martinez, Cal., banks, .for $2S0 each. The $500 which he secured from the banks at Medford and Jefferson has been refunded through Sheriff Sewell, the prisoner not having spent any of the money. There are enough charges against him to keep him in the penitentiary for a number of years to come. Burke is a Canadian. PRICE PUT ON RAISINS.
