Lending; 'Politicians of Chehnlla County In Attendance Governor MaUes a Characteristic Speech. ABERDEEN Wash., June 13. Governor Henry McBrlde left her this morning for Olympla, after a two days' visit to this city, during which time he was shown the entire harbor, with its many large mills, the big Jetty now being construct ed off Wcstport, and other objects of in terest. He expressed himself as being highly pleased with the reception accord ed him, and he certainly made many friends while here, both by his good-comradeship and the open, manly manner in which he discussed the leading questions that are now causing so much comment throughout this state. "While the reception given to the Gov ernor at the T. M. C. A. rooms Wednes day night and the trip over the harbor yesterday were of a public character, and expresslvo of the pleasure at being per mitted to entertain so distinguished a guest, the banquet tendered him last night at the Poodle Dog Cafe by the Republicans of Aberdeen, was one of the most notable political gatherings that have ever been held in this city, tho men who were present being leaders in party councils 'and the ones who have for years organized the plans of campaign and won the Victories for which this section cf the state is famous. The spacious dining-room of the res taurant presented an attractive scene, with the long tables set 4rt horseshoe form, the cutglass, silver and china sparkling under a blaze of light, and the decorations of Ivy and roses lending an added beauty. When the doors were thrown open and the guests seated, R. E. Coe, the pro prietor of the cafe, with a full corps of -trained assistants, served the various courses of the menu to perfection, it re quiring over two hours to do full Justice to the many delicacies thatr had been pre pared. About midnight coffee was served, ci gars lighted and the toastmaster, .Major H. W. Patton. proposed the health of the Governor. The entire company rose to their feet, bowed in greeting to their dis tinguished guest and drank the toast standing. The Governor then responded to "The State of Washington," and there was no mistaking the position he has taken upon the weighty questions that Confront the welfare of this common wealth. His previously expressed views on the railway merger, the unscrupulous lobby, the necessity for a railroad com mission and an anti-pass bill, the ever growing demand for strong, able men to watch over the political destinies of the State and the duty of Republicans dur ing the coming campaign were heartily indorsed and warmly applauded by every man who listened to his words as they rang true and clear.

SPOKANE, June 14 "In my opinion the next Republican state convention will pledge itself to the support of Doth the Railroad Commission and the anti-pass laws." That Is the prediction of Gov ernor Henry McBrlde. who is In Spokme today. Continuing, he said: "The battle against the railroad lobby lias been fought and won by the Repub licans on the west side of the moun tninfe it th contention docs not declare against the pass evil and for the RalP road Commission, it will De due to tne votes of the east side delegates. I am of the opinion, however, that wo will be euccessful in our fight against the rail roads and that the Republicans of the state will stand together on that Issue." MAKING READY FOR JULY 4.

The farmers of the Waldo Hills who recently formed a wool pool representing about SOOO fleeces to day sold to Thomas B. Kay, of the T. Kay Woolen Mill Company, of this city, the ntire pool, approximating 80,000 pounds, at 15 3-4 cents for the fine med- ium or good wool and 14 cents for all coarse or such as Is over three-quarters Cotswold, including the expense of the sacks. As seven-eighths of the wool is listed as good wool, ' this would prove n. higher price than 15 cents straight. Pre vious to the formation of the pool, good wool has been bought in volume in the market at 13 to 14& cents. Members of the pool are fully satisfied with tho result, 'since the sale has realized for them 'at least one cent advance- over the prevailing market figure. Four sealed bids were-received and re jected, and then the pool was auctioned off. William Brown made a bid of 15 cents per pound for tho entire pool Just as it ran. Mr. Kay then made his propo sition, -which was accepted. to Sumpter Will Celebrate July 4. SUMPTER, June 14.

Frcnch-Barl? Jean, Bart Coming From London In Ballast Steamship El der Makes Fast Trip to 'Frisco. The German bark Nlobe sailed from Nagasaki for Portland last Saturday, and with a good passage across tho Pacific should reach, here shortly after JUiy i. She is probably nearer at hand than any other new-crop ship that has been char tered for Portland, and as she was taicen for September loading, may have some time to v?alt "before she Is given a cargo. Usually In making S 'charter shipowners are pretty close figurers as to the time at which their ships will get around to a port, and accordingly arrange for lay dais to begin as soon &s they think It possible for a VCssel to arrive and get In readiness for cargo, while the .Mooe will be some time ahead of her date, her loss through deldy will be small com pared with that of the Brodick Castle, which has been on Puget Sound lnc"e May 15, or the Crompton, Procyoh, Queen Victoria and Garnet Hill, which have been in San Francisco for about the same LrMBER CARRIER, WITH CA length of timev The Brodick Castle's lay days do .not begin until September 15, and unless some arrangement Is made with the .charterer the vessel will ac cordingly be obliged, to remain idle four months. Thero 13 still some demand for spot or near-by ships on Puget Sound, and Jt Is possible that the Castle may be traded and save a portion of this time. With the San Francisco ships the case is dif ferent, for w hlle the ships mentioned were chartered for August-September-October loading at 27s Cd or 2S shillings, spot or near-by ships are obtainable at much lower rates, and nothing but a concession from the owners will Induce exporters to load them until their lay days begin. The Impossibility of accurately forecast ing the date of arrival of a sailing ship at a glen port Is one of the features of advantage in a, tramp steamer, for these ocean wanderers can generally be relied on to turn up within a day or two of when they are expected. BRITISH SHIP COMBINATION. New England Trust Looked Upon as a Menace to Navigation. NEW YORK, June 14. In shipping cir cles the formation of a House of Com mons committee, with the object of look ing after urgent shipping questions in Parliament, is, regarded as a movement of a distinctly satisfactory character, says a London dispatch to the Tribune. . Sir Charles Cayser, chairman of the commit tee, and Colonel Ropner, deputy chair man, sit on the Government side of tho House, but Walter Runclman, honorary secretary, is one of the most promising of, the younger men in the Radical ranks. The clear suggestion is, therefore, that political differences are to be as far as possible forgotten in the effort to en lighten Parliament on the subject of British shipping industry. In taking this step the shipowners in tho Commons are by no means to bo ac cused of adopting a strikingly original line of action. The Church party and the service members have had tholr own Parliamentary committee for a long time paaL It Is slgnlflcent, however, that all the members of thlsnew committee look upon the North Atlantic combination In the light of a real danger to England's shipping industry. It is stated that promoters of the Brit ish combination In opposition to the Mor gan syndicate will not take any further action until the arrival of Sir Wilfred Laurler and Minister Tarte In this coun try. COMING OUT IN BALLAST. French Baric Jean Bart to Make Lonrc Voj agrc for Low Ratel The French bark Jean Bart, which left Portland last December with a cargo of wheat for Europe, was chartered yester day to load wheat at Portland at 2Ss 5d. Tho vessel will como out from London in ballast, and, it Is said, the rate Is the lowest ccr accepted by a ship which made such a long voyage to reach her cargo. The distance is approximately 17.000 miles, so the vessel in order to earn the freight money must sail about 34,000 miles. An operation, of this kind would show a loss for a British vessel, but under the beneficent French "bounty law the operating expenses of the vessel are p'ald by the French Government whether she is carrying a cargo or not. Another French bounty-earner- that has been added to tho list Is the Marechal de Gontaut, which is now en route from Cardiff for Mauritius. The last French vessel to come to Portland from Mauri tius sailed round by way of Australia in order to secure the greatest possible amount bf mileage, and was to long on .. -M ...Mi. Hi- - - .-53!S the way that she missed a good charter and came near to starving the crew to death. FAST AND SLOW. Elder Makes Good lis te 'Frisco, Bat Columbia Arrives Late. The steamship Geo. W. Elder, on her down trip from Portland, "was ap parently trying to even up the average which was way to. the bad on account of her Vecent four-day trip from San Francisco. She arrived at San Fran cisco at 12:20 o'clock yesterday morning, a fraction over 42 hours from Astoria, which Is pretty good time for the Elder. The Columbia, bound up coast, did not fare so well, and the same breeze that was fanning the Elder along at clipper speed was having a contrary effect on her sister liner. The Columbia arrived In at noon and left up at 2:40 P. M. The season seems to be slightly out of joint at fea as well as on shore. It is unusual for the 'Frisco linens to be de layed at this season pf the year, and Captain Mclntyre, of the Oceano, which arrived in from Japan a few days ago, reported a week ot regular Winter east erly gules. Old Boreas has apparently Blipped a cog or two In his weather ma chinery, and Neptune Is wrathy accord ingly. Mnrlae Notes. The British ship Palgrave and the Brit ish bark Dundee, previously reported un der charter to load wheat at Portland, have been chartered to load general cargo at Hlogo for New York on private terms. The steamship Strathgyle, Which ar rived out at Hong Kong last Saturday with a cargo from this port, has been chartered to load sugar at Java for the Delaware Ercakwater . in July, at 23 shillings per ton. The schooner Fred J. Wood, with a cargo of sulphur from Hakodate for the Oregon City Paper Mills, arrived In at Astoria yesterday afternoon, and went Into quarantine. She will leave up to morrow, and after discharging her cargo will load outward with lumber for Eddy. Falk & Co. and the American Trading Company. The schooner Alcalde arrived In at As toria yesterday (mornlng after a slow pas sage of 18 days from San Francisco. The Harvest Queen, towing the French bark Jacobsen and the schooner Eldo rado, arrived up at 8 o'clock yesterday morning.

A special to the Tribune from Grangevllle says that late adIces from Elk City show conclusively that the finding of the dead body of a man on the Dixie trail to Thunder Mountain discloses the fact that the man was brutally murdered. The body was nude when found, and only a small piece of Mackinaw coat was found In the vicinity of the crime.

ENDED AFTER 37 YEARS. Both Defendant and Prosecuting Witness Were Dead. NEW YORK, June 14.-Justus Smith was charged Just 3T years ago with having "a drop too much," and was arrested. There Is season to believe that Justus re formed, that years ago he went where the goftd Smiths go. but, unfortunately for his memory, that charge on the offlolal record has just been expunged. It was on June 14, 1S63, that Smith was arrested by Policeman Gustav von Bus klrk. He nas arraigned before Police Justice Hogan In the old Tombs court, and for some reason the case was held for further examination by tho Justice, who has since become a magistrate.
