PORTUKD. lies ASTORIA PROSPECTS. Tiie Old Town My Awaie to a Sense :": of tne Sitnationr ;-- REACHING THE FINAL FOCUS. Will Have a . Railroad on a Contract " Which May be Signed TayJv r ' SECRECY NKKDFBL IO 8UCCI1S. BUstabem as to Portland Inflaeaees- .. E. I.. Dwjr Complimented . : Minor Mention. - Pobtlanp, March 8. It is now believ ed nnd firmly settled that "Astoria is to have a railroad." Don't quote this and put it under the heading "chestnuts." Astoria must now be recognized, and she will be. If one proposition does not go through, the next will. The people of that city have become worked up to the fact that a railroad will make a great city of the place. A Telegram repre sentative visited the town yesterday and learned these facts in Astoria. The peo ple, confidently believe that it is to take the place of Paget sound, or rather be to Portland what the sound now is to Port land. .' They, or some - of them, think that were a railroad built' the wheat would, instead of going to Tacoma and jBeattle, be shipped . from , Astoria, and not only that this would be shipped, but that now - coming to Portland would come to Astoria and be shipped from her docks. The capitalists believe, as well as the general public of that city, that it is . the mutual . wheat-shipping port of the Northwest. The committee of ten recently appointed is working in a quiet way, but its work will tell when made public. The chairman is working indefatigably for a road. Besides this, the trustees are moving in ' harmonv TUX COMMITTEE OT TK5J. ' Something will come of it. - That is one thing which is very certain. There are now several- propositions to build - a road from Portland to. the. city on the Lower Columbia, one of whicn i occu pying the attention, of the committee and trustees. It is expected that a con tract will be signed in a few days. . The Telegram is Jn possession of the exact stipulations of the subsidy and contract, but cannot at present make them public. PBoth the committee and the trustees are pledged to secrecy. . Other propositions have failed to come to a head and it may be thought that it was on account of un due publicity.- In this case no such matter will interfere. . It has been said that the Dwyer proposition failed on this account. At any rate, the proposition now being considered will not fail for the same reason. Astoria has a most magnificent harbor. . The people want to utilize it. They do not see . what can keep the wheat of the valley from coming directly into their port. They say, and it has been the be lief of every- railroad man who has looked into the ma'tter, that it can be done. One of the most confident of Astoria's wealthy citizens is EX-MATOB SAM ELMORE. t He is sure of all these things and has believed them for years. He has given time and property to the work. A great percentage of his land both .within and without the -town has gone toward' a subsidy. There is one belief which is prevalent among the people of that city. It is that to E. L. Dwyer is due the pres ent situation."- Nearly every railroad proposition,, and there are several ; that has been made to Astoria'ns has come at least indirectly, if not directly, through his efforts. It was said yesterday by many of the prominent men that were Mr. ' Dwyer" to come . in at the last moment with cash to build a road, that is, just at the signing of a contract, everything would be dropped and his matter would be considered. - The As torians fully appreciate the services Mr. Dwyer has rendered. The Astoriana firmly believe,, and they probably are much mistaken in the belief, that Port land is at present not in sympathy with a road to Astoria! It was explained to them that this was the position of some well-know nr: bankers here -some years ago, and, in fact, may yet be their be lief. . They seem to think that because this city has not interested itself finan cially in the attempt to raise funds for the road that it is antagonistic to one, Should this contract, as" expected, be signed, great developments miv ; be looked for in the future. - - Dlsagreftble and Dictatorial. CaicAGO, March 7. Dr. Henery M. Scndder, who is charged with murdering his mother-in-law, and who is confined in the detention hospital pending exam ination as to his sanity, "seized a heavy chair yesterday afternoon and with a powerful swing brought it down on the defenseless head of a lunatic. The victim dropped as though he had been shot, and the doctor was proceeding to kill him when the attendants rushed up and seized him. It required the com bined strength of three men to disarm the physician and put him in his cell. When asked why he assaulted the luna tic he saidt " Voices told me to do itv be cause the man ' was in league with my wife and the others against me." His don and father called to see him this morning.. He seemed pleased tor see his eon, but would not speak to . his father, who, he said, was in league with the people who were trying to ruin him. From the doctor's conversation it seems that he considers that he is a victim of a hugb conspiracy which began with ' his arrest for irregularities in the insurance matter. He appears to class the Dun ton family as - the chief conspirators. A young woman who has done considerable work as a typewriter for Dr. Scudder. says:. "I have had plenty of opportun ities to study him, and I believe he is perfectly sane. " He is a smart man, but inclined to be disagreeable and dicta torial." The First Battle Washington, March 7. The first bat tle oyer the silver bill today. A resolu tion to set apart three days for its con sideration was read, when the silver men and antis locked horns over the ruling of the speaker; that, notwithstanding the journal had not been . read, business could be done. V Some warm language was used, but the Speaker was sustained by a vote of 194 yeas, nays 81. , Tracy moved to recommit the resolution with instructions to the committee on rules to change the date of consideration of the silver bill from March 22 to December 12. The motion to recommit was de feated yeas 70, nays 202. The previous question was then ordered on the resolu tion without further objection; A New Comet Discovered. ' Rochbsteb, N. Y., March 7. Professor Swift, xf the observatory here discovered a bright telescope comet this morning at daylight. As read from the circles it was in right ascension 183 :59 deg., de gree of declination south 31:20. It is large and for a telescope comet very bright. It can be seen , with an opera glass movine slowly in an easterly direc tion. No tail, is visible with the big telescope. - .- ' Sunday Law Fight. - Pittsburg, March 7. Robert McClure, agent of the law and order league, who has been waging a war on the newsdeal ers, carriers and newsboys - for selling newspapers on Sunday, was arrested today for perjury. He has given bail for a hearing. Timothy Hoplcma Withdraws - . . Salem, Mass., March 7.

POLITICAL MATTERS. Clerelantl Credited witt Unalterable Hostility to HilL :: THE PROTESTING MAY CONVENTION. Will Not Refuse the Nomination, But is : Not -a Candidate. ; . THE SILVER BILL ALL THE TALK. Gen. Alger Is Willing Democratic ITpheaval in Maine Other News. Buffalo, March 7. It is asserted by Francis D. Locke, that Grover Cleveland expresses himself as unalterably opposed to the methods employed by the Hill faction, and while he is careful not to express his ieelings to any one connected with the press, he does not hesitate to denounce the February convention in no uncertain language, to his intimate friends. Mr. Locke said tonight the ex president not long ago said to him he was in thorough sympathy with the pro testing May convention to be held in Syracuse, and asserted that in his opin ion it was the only way in which the democrats of New York could properly manifest their opposition to the methods employed by Hill's friends. "Mr. Cleveland said to me a few days ago," saidMr. Locke, "I am not a candidate for the presidential nomination, but if the convention sees fit to take action in -my favor, I cannot refuse to accept." This statement, coming as it does from a bosom-friend of the Ex-President, is re- garded as correctly . representing his position, Significance of he Sliver Issue. Washington, March 8. The eilver men made a great inning yesterday, and men in both parties who have been hop ing it would be postponed until after -the elections are convinced" tHe 'issuV" " must be disposed of by the house before -the date of the national convention. The free-coinage men of both parties are,: . of course, highly' elated. The gold men; in the democratic party are filled - withe' dismal. forebodings, while the anti-free-coinage republicans, who comprise 85 per cent of the republican membership -" in the house, are disposed to view the - .' situation with complacency. It is now possible that the presidential election will turn upon the question of free coin age of silver. The issue was squarely made by the vote to fix a day for a vote on the Bland bill. The eastern demo crats mustered all their strength against the report of the committee on rules and could command only 84 votes. Ten of these were republicans. The vote to fix. a day to consider the bill was 190, five sixths of it democratic. - Portland Upside Down. ' Portland, Maine, March 7. The elec tion here was a great triumph for the democrats. They- gained control : of the city government by electing a ma jority of the city council and a mayor. The common council gives the democrats 15 out of 28 votes and practically turns out all the city officers. The city is turned upside down tonight and the democrats are parading the streets with bands and torches. This is the first time in years the democrats have gained control of the city government,- electing a majority council on joint' ballot, and the mayor. . . 4 Gen. Alger. Coming. Detroit, March 8. Gen. -Alger "will leave for California this evening on purely private business. Being asked -to say something in regard to his atti tude towards the suggestion of his name for the republican presidential nomina tion, he said: "Until recently -I have been undecided as to whether . I would enter- the contest for the nomination, but in view of the expressions from earnest . republicans- throughout the country, I have 'concluded to enter the field." Is Chandler "Loyal?" , WASHiNGTON,March 7. Senator Chan dler is somewhat pronounced in the matter of the candidacy , of Exf-Senator Blair. He says : "New Hampshire will be found in earnest in presenting his name at the convention, if ' the strength we expect from the south be forthcoming. Ex-Senator Blair is our candidate, and we expect he will prove a formidable candidate." Men's and Boys' boots, shoes and hats at about half price, ttf close them out, at J. C. Baldwin's. . S-7d2t
