CLEVELAND IS DEAD
Ex-ftesident Dies Suddenly of
Heart Failure.
WAS ONLY LIVING EX-PRESIDENT
Long Illness Becomes Serious Day
Boforo Death Funeral Private
Great Loss to Princeton.
Princeton, N. J., June 24. Grovcr
Cleveland, twice president of the
United States, died at 8:40 o'clock this
morning at his home, Westland, in
this quiet college town, where he had
lived since his retirement as the na
tion's chief executive, almost 12 years
ago.
When death came, which was sud
den, there were in the death chamber
on the second floor of the Cleveland
residence, Mrs. Cleveland, Dr. Joseph
D. Bryant, of New York, Mrs. Cleve
land's family physician and personal
friend; Dr. George R. Lockwood, also
of New York, and Dr. John M. Car
nochan, of Princeton.
m An official statement, given out and
signed by the three, physicians, gave
heart trouble, superinduced by stom
ach and kidney ailments of long
standing, as the cause of death.
While Mr. Cleveland had been in
poor health for the last two years,
and had lost 100 pounds in weight,
his death came unexpectedly. Some
three weeks agd he was brought home
from Lakewood, where his condition
for a time was such that the hotel at
which he was staying was kept open
after its regular season because he
was too ill to be moved. But when
Mr. Cleveland was brought back to
Princeton, he showed signs of im
provement, and actually gained five
pounds in weight.
Although confined to his room con
tinuously after his return to Prince
ton, it was not until yesterday that
Mr. Cleveland's condition aroused un
easiness on the part of Mrs. Cleve
land. Undoubtedly affected by the
heat, Mr. Cleveland showed signs of
failure, and Mrs. Cleveland tele
phoned to Dr. Bryant, who came over
from New York on the train arriving
here at 4:24 P. M.
Mr. Cleveland became worse during
the night, and Mrs. Cleveland was
called to his bedside. The distin
guished patient sank into unconscious
ness, from which he recovered at
times, only to suffer a relapse. This
continued throughout the night arid
earlv morning. The last time he be
came unconscious was about two
hours before he died. Death was
peaceful. Just before .he died Mr.
Cleveland sought to say something,
but his words were inaudible.
STEAMER ON ROCKS.
Nearly 100 Perish in Wreck on Coast
of Spain.
Paris, June 25. A special dispatch
received here trom uorunna, opain,
Viof thf nnnish steamer La
Roche went on the rocks in a fog
near Muros, where the cruiser iarai
nal Cisneros was wrecked in 1905.
The La Roche sank rapidly, and a
panic followed. There were 97 pas
sengers and 98 of a crew aboard.
These took to the boats, but up to the
filing of the dispatch only 47 had
landed. Defective communications
made it impossible to obtain complete
details, but the latest reports state
that 17 women were drowned. It is
known that 47 survivors were landed
at Muros, but that two of them have
since died. Fifteen others landed at
Lon. ,
According to the official reports the
La Roche carried 98 crew, including
stewards, waiters, etc., and 97 pas
sengers. The La Roche came from Cadiz,
where she had landed some of her
passengers. She was on her way to
Muros when, on account of the fog,
she headed for Corunna. Suddenly
.she ran upon the rock, but the captain
who knW the coast well, got his ves
sel off. Almost immediately she ran
on another rock, which was uncharted.
According to a survivor of the crew
the steamer sank within a few min
utes. The heavy sea which was run
ning at the time destroyed two of the
lifeboats.
Professor Inherits Fortune.
South Bend, Ind., June 25. Falling
heir to an estate estimated to be
worth from $500,000 to $2,000,000,
Professor A. B. Reynolds, of this city,
formerly professor of Latin at Notre
Dame University, has given up teach
ing. The exact value of the property
cannot be ascertained at this time,
for the reason that most of it is in
mines. Much of the property, how
ever, has been developed sufficiently
to remove all doubt of Reynolds being
one of the richest men of the Pacific
Northwest. Most of the property is
in mines in Southern Idaho.

REBELS CAPTURE TOWN.
Mexican Bandits Make- Sudden and
Successful Raid.
t
Laredo, Tex., June 20. Two hun
dred armed and mounted men today
attacked and captured the town of
Vicsca, State of Coahila, Mexico.
Three persons were killed and several
wounded in the fighting.
Telegraph wires were cut and the
railroad lines torn up and a bridge
burned.
Three trainloads of troops left the
Citv of Mexico tonight for the scene,
and a trainload of soldiers also is
leaving Saltillo, the capital of the
state.
Reports received here are to the
effect that the government believes
the attack was made by bandits. The
vice-president of the republic and sec
retaries of war and interior, it is
stated, deny that the trouble has any
political significance.
Some reports received here say the
outbreak is the starting of a revolu
tion. El Paso, Tex., June 20. Eleven
Mexicans were arrested by the police
of this city this afternoon, charged
with fomenting a revolution against
a friendly power on American soil.
The men were arrested in an adobe
hut in the outskirts,. and a search of
the building revealed two cases con
taining rifles and revolvers, and also
1000 rounds of ammunition.
Ljteraturc and letters involving the
men in such anattempt were found,
among them . a Mexican publication
with revolutionary tendencies pub
lished in this city.
SAYS BOXES ARE STUFFED.
OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST
Hearst's Lawyer Says He Can Prove
Fraud Charge.
New York, Tune 2G. With the
practical close of the actual recount
ing of the votes cast in the. last
mayoralty contest today, came
charges by Clarence J. Shearn. coun
sel for W. R. Hearst, that ballot
boxes had been stuffed. When Mr.
Hearst began his legal contest for
the mayor's office, now occupied by
George B. McClcllan, he had a p'u
rality of 3,834 votes to overcome. The
returns from the contents of only 46
out of a total of 1,985 ballot boxes
remained to be recounted when court
adjourned today.
As the recount stands with the
contents of 46 boxes unreported, Mr.
Hearst has made a net gain of 8G3,
leaving a plurality of 2,971 for Mr.
McClcllan.
Mr. Shearn said that his client
would still be able to prove fraud suf
ficiently glaring to invalidate Mr. Mc
Clcllan's title to his office. Counsel
for Mr. McClcllan declared that the
charge of ballot-box stuffing was
baseless.
MONEY THROWN AWAY.
Sailors Use $20,000 Worth of Am
bergris for Boat Grease.
San Francisco, June 25. Greasing
masts, sea boots and oil skins with
ambergris, valued at approximate
$400 a pound, sailors on the British
bark Antiope, wasted about $20,000
worth of the stuff, unaware of the
value. It was not until yesterday
that John Mathiesen, master of the
vessel, learned that he had let a for
tune slip through his fingers. A
small part of the "grease" had been
saved, and this was identified by an
Oakland druggist as ambergris.
The Antiope reached here from
Newcastle, Australia, a few days ago.
On the "way up, in latitude 22 south, a
great quantity of ambergris was seen
floating on the surface of the ocean,
and a calm prevailing, the men man
aged to scoop up several bucketsful
of the stuff. The "grease" was found
excellent, and was used for slushing
down the masts, the balance being
employed by the men on the oil skins J
ana boots. t
Capture Jap Spy.
New. York, June 25. Captured with
plans of the land falls surrounding
Fort Wadsworth's most important de
fenses, a Japanese was taken by mem
bers of the Forty-seventh regiment
and locked up in the guardhouse of
the reservation through the. night.
The man, who was officially de
scribed as a spy, had made drawings
of the chief characteristics of the land
in front of Batteries Dix. Richmond
and Ayrcs, all 12-inch disappearing
rifles, and also of the pair of 10-inch
rifles between these three batteries,
known as Battery Berry.
All the drawings were made with
an idea of furnishing a view from the
sea of where the batteries were. Dis
tinctive trees, huts, sentry-boxes and
signal corps poles were marked on
the maps.

Josephine County Going Dry.
Grants Pass. Judge Jewell, of the
Josephine county court, has ordered
that all saloons be closed in Josephine
county on and after July 1. The liquor
dealers have been notified, and so far
as now appears no objections wi'l be
made to the order. The 10 saloons of
this city, and nearly all the country
and mining camp saloons of the out
side precincts arc already preparing
to close. The goods on hand are be
ing disposed of as rapidlv as the
thirsty will buy, and it is evident that
after July 1 there will be very little
liquor on hand in this county.

OPENING LAKE MINES.
Stockmen Lot Go of Claims nnd De
velopment, Begins.
Lakevicw. It is now more than
two years since the first discoveries of.
gold were made In this section, but
still no mine has been opened up.
Most of the good prospect's arc owned
by sheepmen and ranchers, who arc
not familiar with mining, and have
held onto their claims, expecting that
sonic one would make a rich strike
and that they could then dispose ol
their possessions at a big price. Since
this has not been the case, some ot
them arc letting go now, and the
properties arc passing into the hands
of 'practical mining men. This spring
a number of capitalists and men of
experience in mining have visited this
section, and some of them have se
cured cither leases or options on some
of the best claims both at New Pine
Creek and at Plush. One of the big
gest deals was consummated a few
days ago, when a group of claims in
the Pine Creek district was leased for
a term of years, and the payment
made was $4000 in cash.
SETTLERS IN HARNEY.
Bo-
Stock Ranges Are Disappearing
fore the Plow.
Burns. The recent heavy rains
have insured the farmers and stock
men large crops of grain and im
proved the wild hay crop, which was
almost a failure, owing to the light
snowfall last winter. More people
arc farming in this county this year
. I 4 . . t.
man ever oeiore. Localities wncre a
few years ago only cattle grazed are
now occupied by progressive settlers,
who are turning land that had never
produced anything but sagebrush and
bunchgrass into grain fields, orchards
and alfalfa meadows,
There has been a heavy immigra
tion to this county during the past
year. Most of the new settlers are
well pleased with the country, stating
that the land is better than they ever
expected to find open for entry under
the homestead laws.
The 00,000 acres held under the
Carey act by William Ilanley. of this
count, and some Portland business
men is being contested by the Pacific
Livestock company in the general
land office on the grounds that the
laud sought is not desert laud and
will produce crops without irrigation.
If this tract is reopened for- settle
ment, it will be the means of increas
ing the population of the county by
several thousand people, besides
bringing under cultivation the best
farm land in Harney valley.

Kurds in Persia Strike Terror to
American Residents.
St. Petersburg, June 24. The Novoc
vrcmya today published a dispatch
from a correspondent who has iust
completed a perilous trip from Tab
riz, Persia, to Urumiah. thrnush a
country swarming with nillatrinir
Kurds. He declares that Urumiah is
now completely surrounded by Kurds,
who arc ravaging the villages on all
, sides up to the gates of the town. The
sound of firing is constantly heard
flic missionaries at Urumiah have
, held a meeting and sent out to their
respective countries a statement ol
the critical position in which they find
themselves.
Turkish regular" troops arc close
behind the raiding Kurds. Two bat
talions of infantry, two squadrons of
cavalry and a battery of artillery have
occupied villages three miles from
