Bis Fondness for a Woman' Gets Him x Into Tronble. - Harrisbcrg, Sept 11. There is excite ment in the Harrisbnrg police depart ment and a sensation in the town on ac count of Chief of Police Weikert'a at tempt to save a woman whom he loved from, being arrested. Weikert is a big, handsome fellow, and was made chief of police in 1888. He is married. For sev eral years Weikeit has given much of his time to the entertainment of Miss Laura Weidman, a pretty brunette. The woman made frequent calls at police headquarters and passed much of her time in the chief's private office. When a charge of disorderly conduct was made against Miss Weidman by her boarding house keeper, Mayor Fritchley took the matter in hand, and detailed Sergeant McCann and two policemen to make the arrest. She was discovered in a house of questionable repute, and an attempt was made to arrest her. Before the po licemen got her out of the house Wei kert appeared and ordered the men to leave. They refused to obey, and locked the woman in a room to get time to com municate with the mayor. The police men then took her to police headquar ters, wnere the mayor locked her in a dark pen in the courthouse cellar. This was done while Weikert was protesting wildly. Weikert continued to make ev ery effort to secure the woman's release. He accomplished this in the morning after the keeper left by securing a key from the janitor of the " courthouse. He unlocked the cell door and. set Miss Weidman free. The mayor discharged Weikert from the force, and the ex-chief has left town. THE ITATA CASE. A New Phase Developed sby the Steam ship Company. Los Angeles,. Sept.. 11. Attorney William Goodrich, of New York, as proctor for the South American Steam ship company, the new claimant for the Chilian steamer Itata, has filed an an swer to the information for libel against that vessel, in which he contends that no lawful seizure of the vessel has ever been made; that the seizure at Iquique in June was without the territorial lim its of the United States, and the sur render ot the Itata was compelled by violence by the United States cruiser Charleston and was a breach of interna tional law arid the law of nations. Fur thermore, that the claimant company which built the Itata for traffic purposes had no participation in the use of the steamship for the alleged unlawful pur-: poses which caused the seizure, and ought not, therefore, to be deprived of its property. The answer prays that the vessel be released and that claimant be allowed costs and also damages for deten tion. ' . WHO IS SHE? Miss Ava Appears in Cincinnati as Mys teriously as She did in Chicago. Cincinnati, Sept. 12. The identity of the woman who mysteriously disap peared from Chicago . Wednesday eve ning with the one who as mysteriously appeared in this city last night is fully established by the description of her given by Mrs. Bolton of Chicago. She is very anxious to identify herself as Miss Ava, who was lost at college. "Tell Mrs. Bolton," she said, "and that will identify me better than anything else, that 5-S000 in money arid coupons were in her satchel, not mine, and they took it and its contents. ' Now Mrs. Bolton will know from this I am Miss Ava." A Murderer at Large. Albany, Sept. 12. A duel was fought here a day or two ago by Jesse Moore of Berrien county and R. P. Fletcher of Ewen county, from the effects of ' which Moore has just died. There has been bad blood between the two men for some time, and when they recently met, ac companied . by friends, they agreed to fight with their fists. After a few rounds their hatred of each other became too intense to "be satisfied with -such mild methods, and they drew their re volvers; when five shots were ex changed, and Moore fell mortally woun ded.' Fletcher was also wounded, but not seriously, and fled from the state without delay. He has not been appre hended. Formally Charged With Murder. San Francisco, Sept. 12. M. B. Cur-: tis (Sam'l of Posen), was formally charged with the murder of Officer Grant this morning. He still professes ignorance. He stated this morning that he was a member of the Knights of Pythias and Oddfellows and Masons. Will Be . Important. Washington, Sept. 12.

AN UNEXPECTED MOVE Awaiting Command to Send Troops to European and Asiatic Turkey Army Maneuvers. Two Young Men Beat Their Father to Death and Rob Him A New Freight Schedule. Berlin, Sept. 12. Hamburger corres pondence contains a sensational article entitled "Cossack Stroke of Bosphorus." According to this act Russia meditates a surprise to Constantinople by a conjoint landing of 30,000 troops in European and Asiatic Turkey. The Bosphorus forts, it is said, are to be attacked from the rear and an approach of the hostile fleets is to be prevented by torpedoes, while it is calculated the Russian torpedo fleet could enter Golden Horn at night and completely destroy the Turkish fleet and that the whole could be accom plished in twenty-four hours. Complete plans for everything are said to be ready and only command from St. Petersburg is now needed. TWO YOUNG SCOUNDRELS. Beat Their Aged Father to Death in an Attempt to Rob Him. Berlin, Sept. 11. Two young men named HoefHer, aged respectively eighteen and twenty-four years, broke into the house of their parents in the Leder Strasse, this city, last evening, believing it to be empty at the time, and proceeded to the bedroom of their father intending to steal some money which was usually kept there.. The elder Hoeffler was in the room, however, and grappled with the burglars, whose iden tity was, of course, unsuspected by him. A fierce struggle followed, which ended in the old gentleman being beaten to death by his sons. . The criminals then went on with the work of robbery, and had broken open the money chest when they were surprised by the return of the mother, who had been spending the evening with neighbors, and who was accompanied by a number of friends. The two parricides fled and escaped be fore their mother had discovered the dead body of her husband. The fugi tives have not been traced. THE AKHI MANEUVERS. Press Representatives Not Allowed to Witness the Russian Movements. London, Sept. 11. The number of troops engaged in the governments of Kief, Padolia and Volhyniais about 100, 000. They are drawn from the interior, and there is no diminuition of the great frontier garrisons, scattered along the Austro-Russian boundary. The maneu vers are attended by the leading mili tary commanders in European Russia, and press representatives, both foreign and native, are excluded. The St. Pet ersburg and Moscow newspapers will be supplied by the government with such information as it is thought proper to give. It is known that the maneuvers include the feature of educating the troops to the -familiarity with smokeless powder, and that special attention is given to the efficacy of the new rifle re cently adopted by the czar. A New Freight Schedule. San Francisco, Sept. 12. The South ern Pacific has issued a circular stating that the scehule of the line north of Ashland has been made to connect with the schedule south of Ashland, making continuous freight service from San Francisco to Portland in 82 hours. , A Petrified Woman. Among the merchandise brought to town on Saturday morning by the Amer ican Express company was a black box about seven feet long by two feet broad and a foot , high, says the Butte Miner. It weighed about 600 . pounds and its contents were valued at $5,000. It came from Helena and is the property of F. A. Ransem. The contents are the natural curiosity of Kate Carroll, the petrified woman of Arizona. She died there in 1862 and was buried, - and in 1884, twenty-two years later, when there was occa sion to remove the remains, they were found to be petrified. The form and fea tures are said to be life-like, the entire remains being permanently preserved without any alteration to the contour. Number Lost Said to be Fifty. Athens, Sept. 12. A corrected esti mate of the number of persons drowned in the collision of Cape Colonna between Italian and Greek steamships show that fifty persons lost lives by sinking taor mina; Failed for 8140,000. Roanoke, Va., Sept. 12. Grandberg & Morris, proprieters of a New York wholesale clothing and notion house and the Boston boot and shoe house have as signed. Liabilities, $140000 ; assets not known.. Crushed to a Pulp. Aurora, Mo., Sept. 12. Floyd Brewer, the foreman of the Floyd Crusher, to day was caught in the rollers and la terally crushed to a pulp. DOES IT MEAN WAR? Russian Troops Gathering; In Force Along the Frontier. Berlin, Sept. 11. A correspondent who has been visiting the Russian southwestern frontier of Bessarabia as far as the Danube, says that troops are rapidly arriving aud in large numbers. This would be the base of departure for a Russian army advancing toward the Balkans and Constantinople. At Tutsch Keff four regiments were quartered where last year there were only two ; at Valkovo and Kilio, five regiments had recently arrived in addition to the men already there. At Kagul three regi ments arrived also hut a week ago, and at Jalpuch reinforcements of 7000 men have recently taken up their quarters. Troops are pouring in at the same rate in other villages. These places are of little consequence apart from their situ ation, where an army of invasion would naturally concentrate. In view of these facts, the correspondent concludes that Russia intends, at no distant date, to make across the Danube for Constanti nople, and that her preparations show that this time she means to have a force sufficient to overcome all obsracles. A COWARDLY ASSAULT. A Member of the Georcla Legislature Beaten so he May Die. Atlanta, Sept. 11. While William ' Everett, member of the state legislature, was standing at the cashier's desk in the Kimball house last Tuesday night, he was approached by Fred Cooper, a town tough, who asked : . "Are you a member of the legisla ture?" "One of those who voted against the Confederate home?" "Yes." "One of the ninety-three and a nig- " ger?'" "If you will have it so; yes." TitL . 1 1 a. a l 1 . -, ilu nie liiaj, worn vooptsr ueait Ev erett a murderous blow, repeating it as the legislator rose to go, then stamping on him and kicking him unmercifully. The crowd finally pulled the infuriated man off. Everett was taken to his room, and the report is that be will die. He is bleeding internally, and his phy sicians have fears for him. Cooper is a grandson of ex-President Tyler. BRIEF STATE NEWS. J. D. Wilcox, of Portland, and Mr. Jeffrey, from Canada, have purchased the Todd quicksilver mine, near Oak land and are operating the same with " very satisfactory results both 'as to ore and metal. The distillery at Medford will com mence business as soon as the bonds of Frank Galloway and J. A. Whiteside, the storekeeper and gauger, are approved at Washington and their commissions received here. The Toledo coal mine tunnel is ninety four feet into the mountain, and has just " passed through a s.trata of large clam shells. The men are now working through some black slate, and the indi cations are that they will soon strike the coal bed. Barbed wire on the farm is a fruitful source of accidents.' At Jesse Porter's farm in Benton county some horses be came frightened while grazing in the pasture, and in their wild rush ran against the fence. One of them was killed almost instantly and two others badly crippled. The cable and fixtures for the pro posed new free ferry across Rogue river were last Tuesday taken out to the ferry site by A. Betz. The cable is 1 inches in diameter, the largess ever used in the county, and will be perfectly safe for three times the strain to which it is con templated it will ever be subjected. Mr. J. R. Crosby, who resides on Upper Crooked river, Crook county, lost his barn and about twenty tons of hay by fire a few days ago. The fire was set by a little child who "wanted to see it burn." Mr. Crosby's losa is a severe one to him as it would be to any poor man. A horse escaped from the barn after being somewhat scorched. GENERAL PERSONAL MENTION. Julius M. Price, correspondent of the London Illustrated Newt, has just com pleted a trip across Siberia, over a route never before traveled by any European. Mrs. Bernard-Beere, the English actress, has a special feature of eccen tricity which is useful as an advertise ment. She does not wear corsets. Dia monds and an uncramped waist are her drawing cards. Bishop Dwenger, of Fort Wayne, who was credited at the time of his ordina tion, in 1872, with the distinction of be ing the youngest known bishop, is dying at his home with an affection of the heart. He is 54 years old. - : . It is only when Chauncy M. Depew begins to reflect that there are 600 inno cent and helDless children who will have to stagger through life bearing his name that he loses all pleasure in a good din-, ner and vaguely eats olives instead of cucumber to his salmon. . Senator W. D. Wasburn, of Minne sota, who is said to be the biggest flour producer in the world, is a Maine man and worked on a farm in that state till he was 20 years old. He has also a pro--fuse and fervid belief in another Maine . man, in relation to next year's political developments.
