She MONDAY Prominent Men Drowned. Hollistor D. "McGuire, slate fish com miasiouer and Senator A. W. Reed of Douglas county, were drowned in the Vmpqua r'ver six miles below Rose burg last Saturday afternoon and the news was brought to Rosebnrg about 6 o'c'ock in the evening. With W. P . Hubbard, of the Clackamas hatchery they were on a trip down the stream looking for a site for a hatchery. The water was very swift. At one rapids Hubbard took the boat through and the three proceeded together, when their oar iocs oroKe as tney were endeavoring to row to the shore on approaching anot her raphis, aud the boat was 'ipped over. Hubbard swam to the shore, MoGnire endeavored to but after winding aways sank out of sight. Keed clung to the boat but was finally thrown off in the ewiit water and sank. The nien were warned twice of the dangerous condition of the river and should nevtr have at tempted the trip in a boit. McGuire was forty-six veer of age and was an old lesident of Poit'u.d. Reed was titty-three years of age and waa .ue of the leading men of Southt rii Oregon. The disaster has been the comment of the state and only regrets cave been heard at the unfortunate accident. Wont Sign the Deed. From the Telegram. Mrs. J. L. Cowan, wife of the Warm Springs Indian reservation agent, was brought here today by Deputy United States Marshal Roberts, under a process in equity, to force her to inke deed to certain property in favor ot the Bank of California, which, it is alleged, was fraudulently conveyed to her. This is an aftermath of the failure of the Lion County bank, at Albanv, some years ago, of which Mrs Cowan's hus band was manager, and whose principal credito was the Bank o,f Calif Mrma. At tho time of the susoeiidion of the Linn County bank, certain real projiety held by it was conveyed to Mrs. Cowai. The altove-named creditor sought to recover it by a process of law. Mrs. Cowan, however, refused o tt-ake h surrender, on the grouid that she bought the prp- erty in question with money left her by ncrjtather. Despite that, the court held that the conveyance by the bank, alter it was in a l aukrupt condition, was fraudulent, end ordered a reconveyance. This was several yera ago, and Mrs. Cowan continues to defy the order of the court. The case is a vtry interesting one, and will probably bo heard by Judge Bellinger next Monday.
