THE FARM AND HOME John Mrvrnaiin, a FUlir riiuiii, tuuuil Dead Near Aatorla. Astoria, Or., Aug. 31. John Sven sou, a fisherman, was found dead at Clifton this morning, with a bullet wound in his breast. At first it was thought Bveusou committed suicide, but Coroner I'chl's investigation now makes it appear that it was a case of murder instead. Svensuu was the keeper of the scow from which a woman and two men, whose dead bodies were afterward found, diiap peared during the fisherman's strike, u few mouths ago. It is surmised that Sveuson knew something if the mur derers of these people, and, under the stimulus of the reward offered by the county court, was about to make some damaging disclosures, and hence his taking off.

Business in Portland shows a slight improvement, due in a measure to the turning off uf many of the principal crops. Wheat is moving at last, aud cattle aud sheep ate bringing a great deal of uion.y into the state. The fruit crop is rather light, but what there is is bringing good figures. Hops will be a small crop, but will bnug a figure that will at least pay for the picking aud leave a small margin be sides, which is a big improvement over last year.
