St." Peteksbuhg,' March 1. Forvsev
eral weeks it has been reported that an
other plot against the life of tbe czar has
been discovered, and. that a large num
ber of arrestB have been made in connec
tion with Jt. It is learned the conspir
ator9 planned to murder the. czar while
he was on his way to the funeral Janu
ary 29th, of the Grand Duke Conetan
tine. Upon the day of the funeral the
conspirators - planned to kill the czar
while he was on his4 way to the cath
edral, but were arrested before they
could carry out the plot." A number of
military and naval officers, two of whom
have since committed suicide, were con
ctJrned ' in " the conspiracy." Twenty
students, several minor, officers of the
goverrhnent and a number of other peo
ple are under arrest, charged with being
concerned in the attempt. News, of the
discovery of this plot has been carefully
kept from the czarina, ..whose health is
said to be so delicate that any. severe
shock might prove;, fatal ,to" her mind J
even if it did not cause her death. " A
special correspondent,: who is traveling
in the famine districts of itussia, writes
from Saratov Jhat , villages in the goyf
eminent of Samara, which were prosper
ous, in 1886, are now"' plunged in the
deepest misery, and. the population v has
been 'decimated. , ."Similar conditions
prevail ia other, villages j. .Forty. thous
and acres of land are idle in the province
of Samara owing to a lack of seed 'where
with to plant this area. A large num
ber of German colonists live in. boles, in
the earth for, warmth., They eat bread
made ' of wild hem-p. and carcasses of
horses. ..This dief causes severe, often
fatal, nausea.. 'The famine is changing
the- peasants into, wild beasts.. ; In one
case a man .attempted to hang his
daughter because she was not successful
in begging." ' Inhabitants of Arva,' Hunr
gary4 are suffering from typhus and
other deadly diseases, in addition to the
famine .. prevailing . there, " The ' people
are reduced, to such straits for food they
are'compelled to - eat the bark of trees
and pine cones. ...

passenger agent of the- Oregon Pacifie,
and C. J. Stewart,' traveling freight and
passenger agent of the latter company,
returned to this city this evening from a
trip to the front over the Oregon Pacific
railroad. ! It is presumed the trip had
no significance beyond furthering the
mutual interest of the two companies in
arranging the exchange of traffic. A
work train bearing a force of thirty men
was ordered to the front today . to finish
putting the road in - thorough : repair to

' ''---i "' - Bosh- About. Hill. ;
WASHiyGTOx, March I, Senator Hill
treats the rumor that he is soon to be
married with good humor. When he
was approached on the subject this
afternoon he laughed and said that it
was new to him. The wealthy Albany
widow who, according to rumor, is to
becdine Mrs. Hill, is -understood to.be
Mrs. Manning, widow of Daniel Man
ning.. The ittfry seems to hae found
some believers because her stepson,
James Manning, editor of the Albany
Argul who was for a long time an ar
dent Cleveland man, was chosen oie of
the delegates to the Chicago' convention
at Senator Hill's instance, and stands
pledged- to the senator's candidacy for
ttm presidency. '

priating $1,000,000 for the establishment

location of a site for the factory was left
to a board to be appointed .by the presi
dent, consisting of three officers of. the
army and three of the navy. Senator
FeHon desired the bill to be so amended
as toiocate the site definitely at Behic'ia,
Cat.,' but.his motion . to'' this Effect ' was
voted down. , . . .' " ' '. ' " ' ;

Boise, Idaho, March 1 . This after
noon a tremendous snowslide occurred
in the hills ten miles north of Boise. , A
mass of snow a quarter of a mile wide
and from four to six feet deep, went
down into Little valley with a roar tht
could be heard for miles. The cabin of
a miner named Madden was wrecked
and Madden was considerably used up.
He and his mule were swept down the
face of the hill, together with a lot of ice,
brush and other debries. Madden was
kicked on the head by the flying mule,
the blow rendered, him insensible.
When he regained consciousness he dis-
covered that a wn?on trauma Iturl Vwfn
forced clear through the muje. It was
the dying kick of the animal that knocked
"Madden senseless. He says that the
hill from which the snow rushed is a
solid mass of gold-bearing ore, and in the
morning he and seven associates who es
caped the slide will stake out claims.

The Union Pacific Case. -
Salem, Or., March. 1. The Union
Pacific railroad company gives up- the
fight on the rate case brought by the
board of railroad commissioners ' in the
circuit court ' of Marion county. The
evidence was all taken before a referee,
some of which had to go to Omaha.
While the company gives up the fight it
is a sort of compromise. It permits the
state board to adopt the original decree
with a ' few modifications. The stock
rate as adopted by the board goes into
effect in full. ' The wheat rate is modi
fied Thenew rates go into effect March

of Grant's and $5 reduction per car to all
other points .where the commissioners'
rates amounted to that 'much or more.
