H«iw a San Franciseo Butcner l«et a For­
tune Slip
For a long time after the Ixmanza
excitement the stock market in SaD
Francisco remained quiet and inact­
ive, says the New Y’ork II arid. More
or lees trading was done in Comstock
shares, of course, but the market as a
whole was quietly settling down to
what appeared a “fx-d-nx-k" basis.
The Sierra Nevada anti I’niou Con-
soliduted mines at the northern en«l of
the Comstock group were at this time
particularly inactive, the former sell­
ing as low as fifty cents a share. Ru­
mors, however, began to circulate
alxmt this time of a “strike” in the
north en«l mines, ami Sierra ami
Union began to climb upward.
Fred Powers, a butcher, own«»d at
the time of which 1 speak, a small
shop Ht the corner of Hayes street and
Van Ness avenue, ami In» somehow lie-
came imbue«l with lh«> id«»;, that there
was more money to lx» made in stock
speculation than in the butcher busi­
ness. Acting upon this idea. Powers,
by mortgaging Ins business and bor­
rowing what money he could, scraped
together a few thousand «ioliars winch
he deposited in the office of a Fine
street brokerage firm.
He wasn't particular, be suid. as to
what stock he .should buy, aud finally
settl»»«! on Sierra Nevada as lx«ing a
g<xxi purchase, leaving ins'ructions
with his brokers to buy 1(h) shares on
his account. This was dune and Pow­
ers was duly credited with the stock,
for w hich lit» paid 824 per share.
Meanwhile the rumors came [xmnng
in from Virginia City about the great
north end strike, ami Sierra began t«i
fairly jump forward until it was quoted
at 8175. This would have satisfied
auy ordinary man. but not so Powers.
Instead of selliug lit» gave orders to
buy more shick.
Iu the course of the next two we«-ks
Sierra Nevada bad r«-acii«».l 8'250 p«»r
share, and Powers, with 300 shares to
his credit, was m debt to his brokers
alxmt 840,000. His brokers begg«»«l
him to sell, but Powers was «ilxlurate.
He was after a million, he said, and as
long as his margins remained good, the
brokers were satieficxl.
Powers then wild out. his business
entirely, and put up the procee«ls as
additional margin. He began to hunt
up favorable building sites for the
residence that he iritende«l tolmild.
that, lie asserted, would "Imat them
4nob heel’ affairs all holler.”
Having, like a skyrocket, reached
its highest point. Sierra now began to
come down, at first slowly, and then
nuire rapidly even than it went up.
Powers had gone to the country for a
few «lays t«i look at a ranch h<» had in­
tended purchasing. His brokers wired
him to return, and he suppose«! it was
because his st«x»k had reached the
81.1MM) limit, at which figure he had
left orders to sell.
It was with a very joyous counten­
ance that he greeted bis broker, whom
he met on the street.
“Well,” said Powers, "have you sold
the stock?"
"Oh, yes,” said the brisker, “we had
to. You see it began to fall, utid to
protect ourselves we had to let it all go
at 8140, an«l you now owe ns 875«).
which I hope you can «»tile.”
“Whatf fairly gasped the astonish«»«!
Powers. “Let it goat 8144J! And you
sav I'm in debt?”
“Yes,” replitxl the broker, "we told
you to sell, but you wanted the earth,
and I guess you'll have to go back to
your trade.”
When it finally dawned on Powers
that the broker really sjxike tile trmh.
he was almost overcome with grief
and disappointment. He rallied, how­
ever, and if anyone now wants a choice
steak, the same IAiwers, who works
for a large market concern on l ine
street, is just the man to go to.
He will probably tell you that In»

Washington, October 8.—Secretary
Noble to-day affirmed the action of
Superintendent Porter of the Census
Bureau, in refusing a recount of the
fiopnlation of the state of Oregon.
The grounds presented by Senators
Mitchell anil Dolph ami Representa­
tive Hermann, he says, do uot present
sufficient reaeou to warrant the great
expense of such an undertaking. He
thinks that any omissions that may
have lieen made are fully compen­
sated for by the enrollment of names
that should not have been taken by
the enumerators. There is, he furth­
er says, no sixiutaneity in the demand
of the people of the state for a re­
count, but all the sentiment in favor
of the proposition swins to have been
manufactured by the Chamber of
Commerce of Portland. It <l«x>e not
apjx'ar that any general increase pro­
portionate to that in Multnomah
county would result, and the returns
already made are reasonable aud their
face very fair. The supervisors of the
census were appointed upon the rec­
ommendation of the Senators and Rep­
resentative from the state, and the
enumerators received the greatest
compensation paid for such work any­
where in the Unite«! States. The
supervisors, presumably honorable
men from the endorsements they |x>s-
sessed when tlieir appointments were
sought, selected the enumerators. The
returns they made sliowtxl that there
was an increase in five years of over
til per cent aud in ten years of 78 per
cent, all of which does not make a
bad showing for the state.
■'-The Secretary says that the evi­
dence of error iu the re«4eiit recount in
Multnomah county is much greater
and more weighty than in the case of
the original enumeration. Multno­
mah county has shown wonderful
gains iu five years, but it is not lie-
lieved that the remainder of the state
would turn out so well in the recount.
However desirable it might lie to grat­
ify the people of < Jregon who want a
recount, th«» claim of all the p«»<iple in
the state to like rectignition is entitle«)
to consideration equally. The Secre­
tary, therefore, concludes that the
count, which he believes was fairly
«lone, should lie allowetl to stand, and
no recount will lie made.
It may lie a«ld«»d in this connection
that the census officials here recently
wrote to the managers of the Pacific
Steamship Company to ascertain
whether or not they considered the
memliers of the crews respectively of
the steamships Stat«» of California and
the City of Topeka really citizens of
Portland and entitle«! to lie registered
as such, but the replies have Ixien to
the effect that the men were not really
entitle«! to lx» enumerated there.

A Washington dispatch of the 7th

gressmen have left Washington, but
the news from the Mormon confer­

New York, Oct. 6.—Bussell Sage
over liis signature, makes the follow
ing comment on tlie McKinley bill:
The effect of the new tariff on the
consumer will not lie adverse. Home
competition will reduce pric«« of all
prixlucts us low hh they ought to lie.
When there were no facilities for
manufacturing steel rails in this coun­
try they cost 3140 a ton. A tariff es­
tablishment of mills here brought
rads down to 328 a ton, and a profit
in manufacture was gained at this
price. Within my own experience
iron sold at 895 a ton, aud it was a
p«xir quality at that. It has since
¡•ecu redneetl to 325. In accomplish­
ing the reduction which 1 have named,
this country employed its own labor
and kept its gold at home, instead of
sending it away to pay the labor of
other countries. The future of this
country is one of continued pnisperity.
There will lx* checks, but these will lie
lieneficial. When speculation goes be­
yond the lxiumls of healthy enterprise,
a stringency in the money market has
a wholesome effect. It restrains rash
undertakings and keeps values within
the proper limits. Our government
is strong and commands the confi­
dence of the people to a greater extent
than at any previous time in its his­
tory.

Salem, Oregon, Oct. 8.—The last
chief of the Tillamook tribe of Indians
huH gone to the happy hunting
grounds fabled in Indian lore. “Old
Adam” is dead. Word has just lieen
received at Salem that he died a few
days ago at bis cabin on the Miami
river, below Bay City, on Tillamook
bay, Tillamook county. His remains
were borne to the Indian burying
ground at Jawbone, above Bay City,
and there deposited by sorrowing rela­
tives, the remnants of the decaying
tnlie.
Before the “Boston man” introduced
the curses of civilization among the
sons of the forest belonging to the
Tillamook tnlie their warriors num­
bered many, but now only about
twenty full bloods remain to hand
down tlie traditions of their fathers,
and now since Adam’s death they are
left without a leader, and will no
doubt quickly scatter and vanish from
the face of the earth.
“Ohl Adam” was a very old Iudian,
and by those who knew him well bis
age is variously estimated at from 100
to 140 years. Ho whs a good Indian
and never drank nor used tobacco, and
stood as a high moral for his tnlie.
Adam saw the first ship that entered
the Columbia river, and to hear him
tell of bis sensations at its sight was
an interesting occasion.
