The Mysterious Murder.
Portland police are still working to
eolve the mystery of the murder of R.
L. Johnson, found in a IT. P. K. box-car
at Albina recently. The murdered man
has been clearly identified, but not so
with regard to the murderers. One J.
S. Casada, suepected, is in' jail at La
Grande. The car was in The Dalles,
side tracked, and it is thought that both
the murdered man and Casada were
here the Sunday before;jIt is thought
Johnson and his companion had been
here a couple of days. At any rate,
both of them were drinking, but "had
caused no disturbance. Therefore, the
authorities of The Dalles, surmising
that the crime was committed here,
have taken a hand in the matter, and an
officer who saw Johnson has gone to
Portland to identify the body and throw
what additional light he can upon the
mysterious crime.
-When Casada was arrested in La
Grande he denied any knowledge what
ever of the crime, and stated that he
was open to questions. He said that he
was with Johnson in Colfax, and left
that place with him, but could not tell
at just what point they separated.
They had started out with the intention
of going to Rockford, but did not make
the visit. They left Colfax November
7th, but cannot give a comprehensive-
account of his whereabouts since that
time. This adds nothing to the credi
bility of Casada's story, though the au
thorities say that a tramp who
travels so much as ' Casada does is
not to be expected to remember
all of his routes. There is no question
but the detectives euspect Casada,
though they decline to make any state
ments regarding him ; but it is known
that as soon as possible Captain Gritz-
macher will interview the prisoner, and
if there is any color to the suspicion the
Portland detectives will find it. Before
he was killed, Johnson had a fine gold

Beneral superintendent of the operating
department 01 tne u . r. xi.. jo. meiwitn
n quite a relapse yesterday. Between
Keed sguyzer; wxucn some persist in
calling "a landslide below Bonneville;"
and the demands of shippers at and be
yond The Dalles, the information comes
that Mr. Baxter twice or three times
went back on himself so suddenly that
it nearly broke his neck. It appears
that very many of the Inland Empire
dealers are out of soap, sugar, socks, etc.,
etc., articles too numerous for enumera
tion ; and that they are as anxious to
get their goods up from Portland as the
meat companies were day before yester
to get their fat cattle down. And it fur
ther appears that these consignees sent
an agent to Mr. Baxter, who seems to be
n some way very anxious to hold these
oods, much of which is in transit from
an Francisco ; and begged him to trans-
rthe freight to The Dalles Portland and
storia Navigation Co., that they might
t the articles they are so much in need
iMr. Baxter once agreed to let the goods
ime on by the Dalles City and Regu-
itor, but, like the steal of Sunday
!ere : he wanted the cash money "for the
'freight" to The Dalles. The extortion
quickly, tod. You will need Blank-
ets, Quilts, Underwear, Hosiery,
Rubber Goods, Shoes, Dress Goods,
Clothing. Then take advantage of
would not be tolerated, so he hung up a
sign saying the U. P. R. Co. would not
take freight for The Dalles and other
points of the Inland Empire until Satur
day Nov. 26th. At this . announcement
shippers in Portland rebelled ; they
joined with the Inland Empire con
signees and peremptorily demanded their
freights on bills of lading to Portland..
It is said Baxter sweat over the situation,
and finally made another promise, then
again backed down from it, and thus the
matter stands. But of oue thing you
can take bets. The steamers Dalles City
and Regulator will get the freight, up as
well as down ; and if the U. P. R. R. Co.
fail to come to a decent and respectable
understanding of the situation within a
reasonable time, they will find them
selves in a position to make the amende
honorable, and tkemselvee suffer from a
contusion of the spine, whether. Mr.
Baxter recovers or not.' This is a plain
subject, and it requires plain language,
without apology, from every one who
feels the imposition practiced upon the
public by the grasping, soulless mon
opoly this U. P. R. Co. is.
THE U. P. K. OBSTRUCTION.
A Slide, A Oujier, Perhaps an Embryo
Volcano- Who Knows.
It is now a week since the so-called
land slide, below Bonneville, occurred
on the U. P. R. obstructing travel, after
wrecking a locomotive and a car. From
a small stream but a pace across that
morning, and not to - exceed a foot in
depth, the current from the mountain
has filled Mr. Reed's orchard, below the
railway track, destroyed bis barn, and
completely buried his house. It is now'
a wash fully 300 feet wide, and nearly 25
feet high. At hrst it was considered a
landslide, attributed a glacial movement ;
but the line of the railway track is in
tact, which dispels the theory of glacial
movement. - From a gentleman who has
seen and described it, we are inclined to
the belief that it is at present. writing a
guyzer, and may develop into an" active
volcano. Our informant states that the
temperature of the water is increasing.
It has been impossible to take the force,
but it is something very considerable, to
build up as it has a full two miles from
the sub-terranean outlet, a bank 300
feet on the base, 20 feet high. From the
railway track to the base of the moun
tain the distance is of a mile ; from
the base to the summit of the overflow
is 3a a mile ; The water comes from sub
terranean sources, and the bowlders and
dirt comes to the top by a force equal to
a blast of dynamite. There has been no
separation of earth from bed-rock, no
slide as reported, the .filling is all from
the guyzer, and it is the hight of foolish
ness for the' railway company to talk
about "the track being clear this even
ing." The slide (so called) will last as
long as the guyzer continues to belch
forth its mass of earth and rock, and no
human hand can stay its work.
It is not a tame affair by any means.
It is now considered dangerons to work
in the neighborhood of the obstruction,
notwithstanding the silt flows down as
gently as the sands from the river were
moved in Portland by the Bowers'
dredge, filling Couch lake. It "may be
possible for the railway company to
build around it, but as the wash now
reaches to the river bank, this seems
impracticable. One thing is certain it
cannot be removed from the track by
any known appliance, and as it is im
possible , to build through it, the fact
might just as well be stated : It will be
a long time before railway traffic is re
sumed between The Dalles and Portland
St
Gravel Bids for Beets.
Review. A number of fine sugar beets
were brought to the chamber of com
merce yesterday by Jesse Barker, who
grew them on his farm a few miles from
Spokane. One of them will weigh over
five pounds.' The beets were grown in a
piece of gravel ground, which horticul
turists claim will never be suitable for
the growth of the sweet plant. Secre
tary Reavis had them boxed and they
were forwarded to the agricultural de
portment at- Washington for analysis.
If the test is' favorable, owing to their
size and heavy; yield,' our gravel beds
will soon become a rival of California in
the production of the eugar plant.

There are a number of strong points in
favor of the Tuna Hedge as the fence of
the future, the advantage ot tnia kind ot
a fence may be briefly numerated as
follows : It becomes a perfect barrier
against all kinds of domestic animals
after three years growth ; does not sap
or impoverish the ground, being a strict
ly atmospheric plant, and will not grow
from the seed or by cutting the roots
hence will not spread, it grows only to a
certain uniform height and therefore
does not require trimming, it has been
thoroughly and successfully tested in
northern climates and does not kill out
in the winter time, it serves the double
purpose of usefulness and. ornamen
tation, as it is an evergreen and blooms
during three months of the year, an in
vitation is extended to thoroughly test
its merits, and every one will be con
vinced that it possesses all the advant
ages claimed for it. Messrs. Johnson &
Payne are now taking orders for the
Tuna Hedge and have met with uniform
success. Any one wishing a livinggrow
ing fence something that will not spread
and will be a fence for all time to come
should give their orders now. and get
their fence started this fall.
