The killing of Ban ders, the hop dealer, at Buttevllle. about a month : ago, .was yesterday recalled when a member of the dead man's family ' .appeared In. Salem, and stated that, her object was to secure the offering of a . reward by the county for the. apprehen . " slonfof the murderer of Mr, Sanders. ' She said she had evidence that pointed to a resident of that place as the mur derer of the dead man. - t - - At the time of the murder It 'was stated by ' several people, among them ' .Sheriff Colbath of this city, that San ders had committed suicide, but this view was not shared by the coroner, who held the Inquest, nor by the members of i the dead man's family. Now come mem bers of the family and state that the old bandana handkerchief, found (Irmly clasped in the dead man's , hand when ' ' found, did not belong to him, and he had ( . never been known to own one like It. , But the most sensational story Is that ' of the daughter, who state's that a man residing in Buttevllle, while under the, j Influence of liquor a short time ago, came to the widow's house, and in his ' maudlin state protested against the fan cied accusation that he had shot Sanders, v asserting tearfully that ha had not done ' so. No one hal accused the man of the crime and he had not been thought of In connection with it. His actions, however, have caused suspicion to rest upon him, and the family has consulted , some detectives, and as soon as a re ward can be offered, work on the case will begin. It is stated that the Butte vllle man who has recently been sus pected. Is now carefully watched by his friends, and when he imbibes too much, Is locked up. , , '. The family sunpecU that Sanders was murdered for his money, a considerable r " amount of which he had on his person on the night of his death, and they wish to have the case thoroughly investigated. and'to this end desire the offering of a ' substantial j-eward by the county court. , . . .,,, jHitrtot to Lift Debt. i ' The ! annual meeting of the Salem school district was held, last night, and a 7-mlll tax was voted for school pur poses and 1 mill for the purpose of paying the district's indebtedness.

The. committee checking and correct " Ing - the bouse journal has discovered that the bill prohibiting the killing of v Chinese pheasants until 1906 did . not legally pass, owing to the insufficiency of votes in the house, and although the - bill went through all the channels of legislation, and. is now filed in the sec . retary of, state's office, it is not a law. It was found that the reading clerk. ' In casting up the roll call on the final , vole had made a mistake, and that the , bill out. not nave i voies in us lavor, - consequently did not pass. . . .

Sl Howard Ogle of Molalla claims to have made the first discovery of gold on Ogle creek more than 40 years ago. At that time quarts mining was but little known, and not finding placer erodes that he thought would pay he gave up his claims. Many years ago Mr. Ogle, in company with one or two others, .were in the moun tains and a dense fog settled down npon them. , They soon became' bewil dered by the fog and lost their bear ings, and while wandering around found a ledge of very rich ore. When later in the day the fog lifted they found themselves only a few miles east of Molalla. They made repeated efforts to find the ledge, but It has never been discovered. This gives rise to the opin ion that there are gold mines in the Molalla country as jrich or richer thaa anything yet discovered on Ogle creek, ..Begla- to Bus Coal. An Innovation in the shape of a coal yard will shortly be established in Ore gon City. At the present time not a ton of coal is burned for fuel in Oregon City in the course of a year, but in years to come coal is bound to be the fuel as wood is rapidly disappearing. Two Buns, Ons Tire.

Har ris of Eugene, speaker of the house of representatives, passed through Albany on his way home yesterday afternoon. When asked concerning the report that the law prohibiting the killing of Chi nese pheasants - until October 1, 1906, had failed to pass the house Mr. Har ris said: "The committee ' appointed to revise the House Journal found an error In the number of ayes recorded for the bill when it was before the house for final passage. The clerk announced that 31 votes had been recorded in favor of the bill,' but when the revising com mittee checked over the vote there were only 30 ayes, the bill thus falling to get the required number and it conse quently failed. The error was made in the names of Jones of Lincoln and Jones of Multnomah. The committee certi fied this fact in the journal." This leaves the matter in very bad shape, as the bill has already been filed by the governor and will become a law in 80 days. As the supreme, court will be bound to take Judicial notice of the journals of the session, It will render the law inoperative, as a conviction under it would be r. reversed by . the higher tribunal. Sportsmen in Linn county will be Jubilant over the fact as they would have put up a determined opposition to the measure if they had been apprised of its introduction.

It consisted of 61,263 barrels of flour, valued at 3245,088. In addition to this she carried a sufficient quantity of miscellaneous freight to swell the value of the cargo to $271,185. Four of the largest flour shipments ever made from Portland are as follows:1 Steamers. ' Barrels. Algoa y. .i 85,176 Indrapura. 61,263 Indravelli .....a,;.., 67,977 Indrasamha ...... 1 ...... .... . 57,590 ; It will be seen - that the Indrapura heads the list so far as the Portland Asiatic liners are concerned; v. Until to day her sister ship.the Indravelli," en joyed that distinction. Although having the greater net registered tonnage of the three, the " Indrasamha is behind both of them in the matter of taking out big flour cargoes, ; The reason the latter occupies third place is because she has invariably taken a large amount of other freight In addition to flour. . After being loaded and Just before sailing, this morning the Indrapura pre sented an entirely different , appearance to what she did immediately upon her arrival from the land of the rising sun. At that, time she was not heavy-laden. and stood high up out, of the water, When her cargo was removed she ele vated herself a few feet more, and cross ing over to the flour mills she looked like a mighty giant in stature, 8hortly sacks of foodstuff began to roll into her hatohes with such rapidity that ahe gradually began to sink under the great burden. She continued to go down into the river until the tops of her sides did not , appear -to be more than' 10 or 12 feet above the surface of the water. Front' a giant " she became a dwarf In appearance. When she left down the stream she was drawing 23 feet and t Inches of water. The channel to the sea has an average depth of 24 feet, and to take her through in safety will require skillful pilotage. ,"; Othe Freight Aside from the flour the steamer car ried the following goods: Eleven boxes of dried fish, 200 balea Of cotton, - 260 cases of cigarettes, 201 boxes of apples. 18 casea of smoking tobacco, 1 caae of paper, 1 box of prunes, 4 boxes of books and 181 bags of bones. There were also 19 steerage passen gers, the majority of whom were being deported, having been refused admission by the lnimlgratlon officials. - Of this number the' ship's manifest reveals the fact, that four are Japanese stowaways.
