An Outbreak Bxpeeted Before the Diffi

Boise City, June 6. Gov. 'Wiley re
turned on Saturday from the scene of
the mineis' trouble in Idaho. He fears
an outbreak will occur before the diffi
culty is ended, and has issued a procla
mation, intended for the crowds of men
who are conspiring to cause trouble to
tbe mining people, in which he says:
"Be it known that I do, by' virtue of the
power in me vested by law, proclaim
and order all unlawful assemblages,
combinations and bodies of men to im
mediately disperse and cease to congre
gate in any manner unlawfully, or to in
terfere with citizens of Shoshone county
and railroad travel and traffic, or threat
en property,, business or persons, and to
obey all laws and allow each and every
pereon or corporation to proceed with
their usual business avocations and the
working and operation of their proper
ties, in a peaceful and lawful manner.
I do further proclaim that if lawlessness,
interferences and intimidations still con
tinue in Shoshone county, and if owners
of property are further interrupted and
interfered with in the peaceful and law
ful occupation, enjoyment and working
of the same, and if citizens are further
molested and intimidated, I as chief ex
ecutive, will issue orders declaring the
county of Shoshone in a state of insur
rection' and call to my aid all necessary
force, both state and national, to enforce
and preserve peace. This is to warn all
such persons to refrain, from unlawful
and disorderly assemblage and to obey
the law and resume their peaceful avo
cations in order .that martial law mav be
avoided."
XO LONGER SKCKETAKY.
Juan O. Blaine a Private Citizen and
In the Field.
Washington, June 6. Blaine's per
emptory resignation from the cabinet on
Saturday, and its prompt acceptance by
the president, without a blink, has stir
red the pool of political slash to its very
depths.. Remaining members of the
cabinet say nothing, Blaine -cannot "be
seen nor heard, and yet tbe press of the
country is filled with comments. The
crowd who applied the terra "Jingo Jim"
to Mr. Blaine, so freely last week, are
not so loud-mouthed today. The resig
nation says : "The condition of public
business in the department of state jus
tifies my requesting that my resignation
may be accepted immediately. . I have
tbe honor to be, .very respectfully,
your obedient servant." The accept
ance 'of. the resignation, which
followed within an hour aferwards con
cluded thus : "The terms in which you
state your desires are such, as to leave
me.no choice but to . accede to your
wishes at -once. Your resignation is
therefore accepted."- It is clearly under
stood that the firm purpose, of ,. Mr.
Blaine was to get out of the frigid regions
of an ice-chest, such as the cabinet has
been to him for many . weeks past
during the greater portion of which time
he has been annoyed because of the con
stant discussion of his name in connec-
tion with the presidential nomination.
To this was added the annoyance of sen
sational rumors constantly placed in
circulation as to his being secretly work
ing to accomplish Harrison's defeat and
at the same time encouraging his friends
to . pursue a similar course. Without
any reference to the truthfulness, plaus
ibility or practicability of these reports,
they apparently had a perceptible -effect
upon the president's personal friends
and most intimate admirers. The feel
ing daily grew upon Blaine that he was
regarded with suspicion and distrust ;
that the friends of the administration
practically -considered him guilty-of
duplicity, and even his associates in the
cabinet seemed to look, upon- him with
silent reproach. There also seemed to
be a constant desire to humiliate him
by urging the necessity of a further pub
lic declaration that he was not a candi-
date for the republican nomination.
These thoughts and suspicions constantly
preyed upon Blaine's mind until the
worry and annoyance became intolera
ble and he determined to resign, aud
having fully decided upon this course he
desired a speedy settlement of the whole
matter in order that he might enjoy the
rest of a private citizen, which was de
nied him as part and parcel of the admin
istration. The chilling;- cold-blooded
policy of treating the subject by the
president, and his friends, will certainlv
lead to Blaine's nomination at Minnea- i
polis this week. The resignation ap- i
pears to have been determined upon j It Falls to the Ground, Ruins Buildings

servers in Washington which warrant: .
the belief that the resignation, though '
undoubtedly precipitated by recent oc- je H1JKCH tST rJ or CHItlK1EI,.
currences, had its origin a long time ago '
in causes essentially personal rather) N -than
political. The causes may, be J
hrieflir o,,.,;,! th,,. T .: ! An A rctl Formed of the Timbers of the
bili ty of temperament; disagreements!
over public questions, such as the!
Chilean matter; injudicious com pari- j
sons ana comments on the part of inju
dicious friends concerning the credits
due either for the enactment and execu
tion of the reciprocity project, and the
general conduct of foreign affairs, includ
ing the management of the Bering sea
controversy, and lack of cordial relations
between the respective families. These
causes undoubtedly created a feeling of
constraint between the ' president
and the secretary months bsfore
Blaine wrote the letter declaring he
was not " a candidate . and . the
recent authorized publication by a mem
ber of the president's family, and close
political friends regarding the secretary's j
physical and mental condition. There
seems to be no -doubt whatever among
his friends that he has placed .himself in
a position of readiness to accept the
nomination. One effect of Blaine's res
ignition is a sudden termination of the
conference between himself and the rep
resentatives of Canada. Saturday's ses
sion was abruptly terminated by Blaine's
statement that it was useless to continue
negotiations, as he was about to sever
his official relations with the govern
ment. Tbe Canadian commissioners
left on the afternoon train for Ottawa In
an unpleasant frame ot mind, and were
quite free in stating that they had not
been treated fairly by the administration.
It was subsequently learned that there
were no sensational incidents at the ses
sion, but the conference closed with a
friendly spirit on both sides. The sec
retary remained at the state department
until 11 :15 arranging his private papers.
While he was doing this an official doc
ument was laid before him for his signa
ture. Blaine told the messenger to take
it away, saying, "I am no longer secre
tary of state." It is said this was the
first intimation he had given any official
associates of his resignation. The ques
tion as to who will succeed Mr. Blaine
in the state department porti folio is a
dominant topic. The names most fre
quently on the lips of men entitled to dis
cuss the topic with intelligence are those
of secretary of the navy Tracy, Chauncey
M. Depew and ex-Senator Edmunds.
The Mississippi Still Kleins;. -
Chicago, June" 6. Advices totbeasso-
dated press show that the : Mississippi
river is rising at and above St. Louis.
The probability is that it will not begin to
fall until . after the -June rise, and it is
giving cause for grave apprehension when
that event . takes place. The Arkansas
and other rivers in the southwest where
recent heavy rains have fallen also con
tinue to rise, and threaten further des

Walla Walla Statesman. We should
like to live long enough to find out th
true secret of Charles A.; Dana's unre-
lenting and unvarying hostility to Grover
Cleveland. Various surmises have been
hazarded, but it is not believed that- the
reason has ever been stated. Dana is so
bitter and so persistent in his assaults,
that we might almost believe that
Cleveland had done him some great
favor, though there , is nothing in
Cleveland's public career to support such
a theory.

PUMMELED BY A FUNNEL-CLOUD.
Falling Building Saved Many
Lives Other ws.
Kansas City; June 6. Saturday af
ternoon McCook", Nebraska, was visited
by a terrible cyclone with bad effect.
' About 4 o'clock, while the streets were
crowded n huge funnel-shaped cloud
dropped to the ground, first striking the
building of H. W. Cole and carrying off
the roof. It whirled it around and
brought it down, with terrible force, in
almost its former position, upon the
heads of a number of cigar-makers who
were at work. One was severely injured.
The storm-centre was seen to rise up in
the air and again drop to the ground
about three blocks away, striking the
Congregational church, in which chil
dren were rehearsing for Children's day.
Two hundred small children had just
finished the exercises and were going
home. The church was raised from its
foundations and dashed down in a mass .
of ruins. Burying about sixty children,
together with the pastor of the church
and several teachere. Fortunately the
falling timber formed an arch over the
heads of those in the church, and all
were soon released from their imprison
ment. Several are so seriously injured
they cannot live. Many of the children
have legs and arms broken and others
are hurt internally . The list of injured
includes-about fifty, but as many were
carried home at Once, it is impossible ta
get the exact number. -
An Old Mine Sold.
Si-okaxk, June 6. A deal was con
summated in this city, on Saturday by
which W. P. Haskell, one of Spokane's
most prominent citizens, will acquire for
himself and an eastern syndicate one of
the most historic, largest and richest
mining properties in the United States.
In fact it is the first mining property of
which there is any record in what is now
the United States. It is the old Copper
canyon, in the wilds of New Mexico, but -which
is now only twenty -two lniles
from a railroad that has recently- pene
trated the heart of the country fronn
which the Montezumas extracted fabu
lous wealth long before the advent of the
Spaniards. The history of this, the first
; scene of mining operations in this coun
try, is quite interesting considering the
great proportions to which the mining
interests have grown from the time the
ancient workings were in euccetsful op
eration until the present., day, when so
much interest of the same nature centers
around Spokane. ' The Copper canyon
was worked in A. D. 140 at the time of
the Spanish invasion.
