Mi;y am.
Washington, Feb. 3. Senator .Dolph
today received a letter from the Chamber
of Commerce at Astoria, inclosing a set
of resolutions passed by that body, urg
ing congress not to appropriate money
for a deep water channel on the Colum
bia and. Willamette, rivers from Astoria
to Portland, but urging that the money
be, spent at the Cascade and The Dallas.
This memorial was addressed to the
committee on appropriations, but as" it
does not have charge of the river and
harbor bill, which will contain the 'ap
propriations, Senator Dolph forwarded
it to thecommerce committee. - It caused
some amusement in the committee
room, and one of the members said it
looked rather selfish on the part of As
toria, after having money for the com
pletion of the jettieB at the mouth of the
Columbia to desire to prevent better
commerce on the river above that town.
It is doubtful if the commerce committee
will take any notice of this petition, and
Senator. Dolph will certainly insist that
an appropriation be made for a deep
water channel on the Willamette and
Columbia rivers. . vT -
THE LOUISIANA LOTTERY.
Ib Company Will Witudraw Its Appli
cation for m Reeharter.
New Obleaks, Feb. 3. John A. Mor
ris, of the Louisiana Lottery company
today issued a lengthy address to the
people of Louisiana, setting forth the
facts in connection with lottery matters
He says in 1883 he was approacnea by a
number of democrats of Louisiana, who
urged upon him the propriety of sub
mitting to the legislature a proposition
for a constitutional amendment, which
would grant him and associates the lot
tery privilege for twentv-nve years, in
consideration of a license sufficiently
high to be of material assistance to the
state. He was assured the proposition
would meet with little, if any opposition,
and those suggestions prompted him to
make announcements to the effect that
he would give $500,000 per annum as
license. ' After the Mississippi floods, at
the solicitation of a number of gentle
men, he increased the amount to $1,250,
000. . Then began the crusade inside and
outside tbe state, which resulted in the
enactment by congress of the anti-lottery
postal law. Morris says he was informed
by a number of able attorneys that this
law was a. violation of the rights of state
and the freedom of the press, and' such
in their opinion, would be the decision
of the supreme court of the United States
Realizing now that they had been incor
rect in their opinion of public sentiment,
and not desiring to see the people of
Louisiana involved in a strife over the
question,'; Morris declares they would
not accept . nor qualify it under the
amendment, even if it were to be adopted
by the people in April next. As the
supreme court of the United ' States has
decided the anti-lottery postal law con
stitutional, it is his purpose to uphold
that law and abstain from violating it in
any manner. Confident that the grant
ing of another lottery charter would be
the cause of continued agitation, and
discontent on the part of a number of
cititens of Louisiana, he and his asso
ciates would be unwilling to accept such
a charter, even though it was. given
without the payment of $1 license.
Sir Morrel McKenile.
' London, Feb. 3. Sir ..Morrel Mac
kenzie, the distinguished physician, who
has been seriously ill. with bronchitis,
died today.. : v "
Sir Morrel Mackenzie was born in
Essex in 1837, and was educated in Lon
don, Paris and Vienna. In 1863 he
founded a hospital for diseases of the
throat in Golden square, London.. In
the same year he was elected house
physician to the London hospital becom
ing in due course full physician, arid was
appointed lecturer on diseases of tbe
throat, aa kpointment he held till the
time of his death- He was the author
of numerous publication on larynlogical
subjects, and in particular of the treat
ment of the diseases of the throat and
nose which is a standard work. He was
in attendance .'Emperor Frederick
during the latter's . illness, and was
knighted in 1887. .

-' Chicago Will Build a Wigwam..
Chicago, Feb. 3. The local commit
tee of democrats to provide for the com

building, and this afternoon decided to

15,000 persons, in whicn the convention

Denouncing the English Press Unfair.
Washington, Feb. 3. Goldwin Smith
made a few remarks last night at the
dinner to Captain Schley, of the Balti
more, lie. said he gladly toofc advan
tage of the occasion to express his regret
as an Englishman at the repeated utter
ace is of a port ion of the .British press
respecting the Chilian affair. He, said
he hoped the worst had come to the
United States and the best stayed be
hind. Speaking of criticisms on the
president's message on the Chilian ques
tion, femitn said, to him it seemed an
entirely temperate, dignified and logic
ally conclusive document. Captain
Schley also spoke briefly. m He says the
'.-Xsteamer Baltimore always stood as the
representative of the great power under
whose flag she sailed. He referred to
the efficiency of the. crew of the vessel
and said that if the circumstances dur
ing the late Chilian affair required it, he
thought the members of the crew would
have acted in such a manner as to merit
the approval of the government. "The
cloud of war has now blown over." the
captain said.'but the affair proved very
suggestive ef the fact that Var was
liable to come upon a nation at any
time." tie hoped it would serve as a
warning to the people, and demonstrate
that it is time to consider the means of
how best to protect the country and its
flag. . -

Xkw YouK.Feb. 3. Ward Waterbury,
the 8-year-old son of Charles P. Water-
burv, a wealthy farmer of Pound Ridge,
Westchester county, was kidnapped by
unknown men Monday morning, while
on his way to school. On that day the
boy started for school at 8 o'clock in the
morning. As he did not return at the
usual hour in the afternoon his mother
felt anxious about him. In the evening
the bov being still away, the father
went in search of him. He went all around
the neighborhood, but without success.
On his return home he found hie
nephew, -Charles Waterbury, waiting
for him with a letter which the nephew
said had been given him bv a stranger.
It reads as follows :
Sir : Unless you are prepared to de
liver the sum of $6000 in cash as a ran
som to us, you will never see your son
again. The money to be at Miller's
bridge, in front of Miller's mill, one
mile east of Bradford courthouse, at
midnight Tuesday."
There was no signature to the letter. .
The nephew said it had . been given to
him by a rough -looking man whom he
met-on the-road driving in a small
wagon.
Pound Kidge, N. Y., Feb. 3. Mr. '
Charles P. Waterbury, whose 8-year-old
boy was kidnapped Monday morning,
went to the bank yesterday and drew
out $6000, which he says he will pay to
the abductors of the child and make no
fuss, as soon as they produce ' the little
one. The detectives and local police
were kept busy driving from one place
to another yesterday, hunting through
deserted farmhouses and outbuildings -and
in suspicious placss, for some trace
of the boy, but at nightfall they had
not succeeded in finding any. Mr
Waterbury felt sure that no one took
the child for a grudge against him, but
merely for the sake of a ransom.
Later Ward Waterbury, the boy kid
napped Monday near Pound Kidge,
Conn., was bronght home early this
morning by .John Close, of Stanwich,
Conn. The' boy had been left at the
home of Close "by a strange man, who
then ran away.

severe that the car was thrown from the
track and badly wrecked, and windows
were shattered in all the houses on the
side of the street nearest the track over
which the car was running, not one per
son was badly injured. Several of the
men wre cut by flying glass, but no one
was seriously hurt. Many persons were
thrown out of their beds by the force of
tbe explosion. The strikes have been
quiet fr several days and it was thought
they had abandoned tbo tight and all
trouble was over.
