CONSIDERED A HOAX Such is the Constrnution Now Pnt Upon the Port Townsend Story, THE SOURCE OF THE INFORMATION It Originated with One of the City of Topeka'K Passengers, But No One Else Knew of It. Skattlk, July 13. The story sent out last night about the United States steamship Mohican being fired upon and disabled by a six-pound cannon from tho steam sealer Alexandria, is now believed to he a hoax. The story was told by G. T. Barrett, of Kadiak island, who came down on the City of Topeka, but the officers of the boat know nothing of the occurrence. Judge Warren Truett, of tho United States court of Alaska, and E. B. Hatch, ex collector of customs, who came down on the Queen, which left two days after the Topeka, say they hnd not heard of any such aflairVis told about the Mohican, and the mail boat from the north had arrived in Sitka several days before they left. No other pa&senger, except Mr. Barrett, on either steamer, and none of the officers of either knew anything to corroborate tho story. TlieiActn of a Lunatic. New York, July 18. Frederick R. Coudert, one of the counsel employed by the United States to argue its case be fore the Behring sea commission in Paris, was much surprised this morning when shown a dispatch telling how the Hawaiian sealpoacher Alexandria had fired upon and disabled the United States man-of-war Mohican on June 25. He said : It seems possible that the acts of a lunatic f-hould affect the negotiations now being carried on between the two nations of the earth. I can only say that I am sorry that a United States ship could be so easily disabled. I did hear at one time that some fellows up there had threatened to go and make trouble if they were interfered with, but I never thought that any one would be lunatic enough to carry out such a threat. Judging from this dispatch, thiB ship was raiding rookeries. There can be no international question arising from tli is as to the legality of the attack. It is much the samo as if we were, to go and raid our on barn. It would seem to me that Great Britain's ships would be just a6 anxious to sei.e such ma-1 rauders as tho&e of our government, as this fellow is a public foe. As far as flying the Hawaiian flag goes, Hawaii would probably disavow any interest in the ship whatever. Great Britain could not countenance such conduct, as she has her dignity to regard according to ; the modus vivendi. It may have the good result of hastening a decision from the commission, as it will be seen that the present state ol things can't last. I do not see how any international com plication can arise from the incident ; it is very unfortunate it conies just at this time. Th Iti'iiort Xot Credited. WAtiiuxfiTOX, July IS. The navy de partment ollicials do not credit the story that the United States steamer Mohican was iired upon and disabled by u poach - iib steamer in Alaskan waters on tho 25th of last month. Strong reasons for their incredulity is the following telo uram received this morning from Cup- tain Hooper, commanding tho revenue cutter Bush : N'anaimo, B. C. July 17, 1893. To tho Secretary of tho Navy, Wash ngton, D. C. : By order of Commander Uidlow tho steamer Bush, seized on July 2d. at Chirukaf island, tho American schooners St. Paul and Alexandria, for iolation of section VJM of tho rovised statutes. It mav be noted that tho events men tioned in the above dispatch were of a later dato than that upon which the alleged Jlt ing took placo, but no mention made of it. although the order for tho seizure was given by Captain Ludlow, and presumably his vessel, tho Mohican, as in company with tno Kush, Com modore Btuusny, acting secretary of the mvy, believes that Captain Ludlow I'ould certainly not havo failed to men tion so important an event as the dis abling of his ship H it were true. Spcclnl flrnln Itepoit. Tho following report is for the week ending Tuesday, July 18th, 1893, B. S. Pa?ue, local forecast officer, weather bureau : WKSTKK.V OKKOOX. The wheat crop is in good condition. Fall wheat has generally been increased inacreago; but tho acreage of spring- sown wheat has been decreased owing to the late spring rains. Fall wheat has an ,'averago increase in acreage of fully 10 per cent, whilo tho yiold is expected to be 12 to 15 per cent greater than last year. Spring-sown has been decreased about 7 per cent, and tho yield will bo fully 5 per Tcont short. An interesting and valuable fact is reported by a Ma rion county correspondent. On land which last year was summer fallowed with potatoes the wheat, fall-sown, has a much better appearance than any other wheat, and it promises to yield 15 per cent more. Potatoes always have a sale and many would profit by plant ing potatoes on summer fallow and not allow the soil to remain idle and become filled with weeds. The grain crop south of the Calapooia is not so good as in the Willamette valley ; wliilo on the other hand the fruit of the latter is not so good as in the former. Spring wheat was sown unusually late and some of it is heading, and it is not over 10 or 15 inches high. The warm weather has been of great benefit to tho wheat, caus ing it to ripen moro rapidly. Harvest ing of wheat is in progress in some of the southern counties and by next week it will bo general. Oats area good crop, spring-sown not so good as fall-sown. Haying continues. Hops aro growing rapidly; some are beginning to blossom out. Few lice are so far obsorved ; but are increasing in numbers. Black and raspberries are ripening rapidly. Straw berries are about over. Cherries are now in the height of their season. EASTERN OREGON. The fore part of the week was cloudy and cool, while the latter part was clear and warm, the maximum temperatures ranging from 75 to 95 degrees. The rains from the 8th to the 11th were of inestimable benefit to the crops. The wheat crop is reported in excellent condition. In Wasco, Gilliam and Mor row counties, where the prospects two weeks ago were from 10 to 15 bushels per acre, have improved from 25 to 40 per cent. Sherman and Umatilla coun ties will have as good a crop as they had in 1891 and the total product will be more. In Union county the present conditions are excellent. Wallowa, Baker and the interior counties have greatly improved prospects. One wheat grower in Umatilla county who lias (3,000 acres of growing wheat reports that he will havo at least 120,000 bushels. Some fall-sown wheat is being cut this week; but not until next week will harvest bo- come general in the Columbia river val ley. Haying continues and very fair crops are secured. The fruit prospects remain as reported last week. The wool continues to bo stored in the warehouses, some 10 or more million younds now being stored awaiting a market. SUJIMAKY FOR STATE. Fall wheat increased acreage, slightly decreasing yield per acre. Spring wheat decreased acreage and decreased yield. Total product will bo for Western Ore gon fully 8'. million bushels ; for East ern Oregon fully 0 million bushels. Oats and hay crop as good or better thun ever before.

From a syndicate letter printed in a number of county-seat papers in the middlo and eastern states, the following extract is taken : "Before passing judgment on the in dividual stato exhibits and buildings, ono has to look at the purposes for which the displays aro made. For in stance, the Now England states and the old and thickly settled disiricts have erected magnificent state buildings, which are bcinc maintained as places of reception for their own people and their friends. These states already have as many or moro people than they want, and hence do not make a display with an eye to the attraction of immi gration. Witli the new states, and particularly those of tho Pacific coast, tiie situation is reversed. These'states invite immigration, and it is for the purpose of attracting nttention to their resources, and impressing upon the mind of tiie homeseeker the fact that desirable lands and homes are to be had at moderate cost, that the Western states are making an inviting exhibition at tho fair. As representing the states of the west at the exposition, Oregon, the land of big red apples, stand pre-eminently at the head. Although she has no state building, Oregon makes a magnificent showing of her resources in the several buildings of tho fair. Her display in the horticultural building is everywhere acknowledged as being peerless. Here she shows pears weighing five pounds, apples six inches in diameter, plums larger than goose eggs, cherries 3?.( in ches in circumference and peaches 17 inches. In her agricultural booth she exhibits grains and grasses that are acknowledged by mill men to be with out parallel. In the flour tests made at the fair, flour made from Oregon wheat was found to make whiter and finer biscuits than any other flour tried. In the mining department a miniature placer mine is kept constantly in opera tion, washing virgin gold from the gravel just as it is taken from Oregon's placer mining properties. In tho fish ery department several tons of tho fa mous Columbia river salmon are shown together with fishing boats, fish-wheels, etc., and in the forestry department are exhibited some specimens of timber that astonish the world. A block cut from a forest of tho west measures ten feet across. This is the largest block of wood at the fair and it attracts much attention. " Hum Never Itefn Disappointed.
