DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portiDii of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mu cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rnmbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken put aud this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Judge Deady Orders Uoth Parties to Hiitcr into a Stipulation, It begins to look like the long and tedious litigatiou in the Oregon Pacitic railroad case is about at an end, and that the road will soon be put on a solid financial footing again, as iu the United States circuit, court last Monday Judge Deady rendered a de cision in the case of Liunley Smyth et al. vs. T. Edgenton Hog$; et nL on the motion to issue an injunction to restrain defendants from receiving or assigning a certificate of the sale of the Oregon Pacitic railroad and its property. The case was argued and sub mitted a week ago. The following is the full text of Judge Deady's opinion aud decision. opision. Jcdoe Deai : Ou February 1G, 1S92, Limlley Smyth, George De B. Kiem and Jo seph Warton, bondholders iu the Oregon Pa cific railway company tiled a bill in this court against T. Egenton Hogg, Zephin Job, and William Mackay to enjoin them from trans ferring a certificate of sale of the road under a decree of the Benton county circuit court. Zephiu Job was the bidder; Wm. Maokay was the sheriff. A restraining order was allowed, and order issued to show cause. Afterwards the order was set aside as to Mackay, the sheriff of the circuit court, and he was allowed to deliver the certificate if he saw proper to Zephin Job ; but Job was restrained from disposing of it, or transfer ring it in any way. A few days since the parties showed cause, and the matter was heard. "The brll showed! that the company was largely in debt, and on last October failed to pay its interest ; that the Farmer's Loan & Trust Co. who held the mortgage against it as trustee for the bondholders, brought a suit to 'enforce the lien of the mortgage, and a decree was entered for the sale of the property, to be sold for not less than a mil lion dollars. The bill alleges that there was an understanding between T. Egenton Hogg, the president of the company, and the bondholders represented by the com mittee of the bondholders, that the property should be bid in for their joint and mutual benefit, and that there should be a new company formed which should float the new bonds and retire the old ones and set the concern ou its legs again. The material al legations of this bill are contained in the sixth clause, and are as follows : Hogg answers the bill aud tiles an affida vit denying utterly and absolutely having, or ever having had any such purpose; and there, i8.jpthinginJth&aseirom one end to the other to show that he had any such in tention. There is a answer of Job to the effect that he bid off this property for him self, that he did not bid it off for the bond holders. In a further showing by Hogg and assented to by Job,' it appears that he bid it off at the request of Hogg, Hogg being in New York and telegraphing him to bid it off and furnishing him the $2o,000 with which to make the first payment. There was no particular explanation as to whom he bid it off for and whom he did not bid it off for; but really he bid it off for Hogg and bid it off as the agent of Hogg, and what ever purpose Hogg had iu the matter ulti mately was his purpose. As I said, there is no evidence in the case to show that Hogg ever threatened or had a purpose to leave these bondholders out in any reorganization or settlement of this matter, and that is the material allegation of this bill ; without it there is no case. Hogg admits the arrange. ment made between the committee of the bondholders and himself as alleged iu the bill, aud hv willing to carry it out. The vice in this arrangement was that they made no provision for the paymaut of the bid under this arrangement. The bondhold ers say that they understood that Hogg had negotations with foreign capitalists by which he was to obtain the money to pay this million dollars and other expenses in cident to the sale, through his own means, by himself. But he denies this, and there is no prooi of it; the proof is to the cob trary; but they made this arrangement, went iuto this business, aud made no pro vision for the payinect of the bid. Tney admit that they made an arrangemeut tu is sue new bonds, to .issue a new mortgage, a new company to be organized; but that could not be done nntil the bid was paid ; that had to be done first, and it was over looked altogether. It is not reasonable to expect that Hogg was goiug to pay. this mil lion dollars himself "cut of his own pocket for the benefit of these bondholders, and there is no proof that he agreed to do it ; the proof stands to the contrary. Logically speaking, it ought to be dismissed. Hogg is not in fault any more than they are all in fault ; they have made no provision for the payment of this bid, and the proceedings come to a stand-still unless Hogg will raise the money, or they will raise the money. All the circumstances considered, I have concluded to make a decree, which I think will do justice to these parties aud facilitate a settlement of this matter, which I think is very desireable. The following is the decree as finally set tled by the judge. - In the Circuit Court of the United States, for the District of Oregon. Lindley Smyth, George") D B. .Keiui, J spli Wharton, l'laintitts, vs. - h "'; T. Egenton Hogg, I Zephin Job, William .

The mystery surrounding the disappear ance of Samuel Mcllree, of Peoria, well known -in this city, who went to Portland on the Sth of April as a delegate to the re publican state convention from Linn county has been cleared up by the recovery of hii body, which was found floating in the river near the foot of Jefferson street, Portland, Friday afternoon. Mcllree lived at the house of his brother-in-law, J. LI. Campbell, during hi stay iu, t . t 1 .1 4t,. 1 . . : i- luivuiim, nun duo imu tune 11W3 km iovh there was on the morning of the 9th. About twenty minutes after he left the house, an old man who was fishing near the old city waterworks thought he saw a man strug gling in the water some distance below him. The man he thought he noticed was iu aljl probability Mcllree. As Mcllree's watch and $57.22 were found on his person', there is no suspicion of foul play. Mr. Campbell is satisfied that he committed suicide, as he has .been sub ject to melancholy spells for some time. Af be was a man in good circumstances, how ever, there is no reason why anything should have troubled him. The deceased was 45 years of age and single. He was a Mason in good standing, and also a member of thf Knight3 of Pythias lodge of this city.
