-THE BODY IDENTIFIED
Alex. B utterly Killed by the Train and
Horribly Mutilated.
. The mystery of the dead man found
on the track by the Des Chutes bridge
was solved today. His name is Aleck
Butterly, and he fell .off the east-bound
passenger train, from between., the bag
gage and mail cars, where he was steal
ing a ride, while partially intoxicated.
Butterly has been workins at the Cas
cade Locks, and being thrown out of
work, concluded to go eastward bv beat
ing his way. He came to The Dalles on
the same passenger : train he was riding
at the time of. his death, and while the
train was waiting for a chance of en
gines, went into the. Baldwin saloon
with a comrade, where both took several
drinks.; At this time Dick Nolan was
close to the two men while they were
standing at the bar and he saw Butterl v.
the deceased, take out of bis pocket a pass
book, which was afterwards found on his
person. He said to Nolan that he had
been working at the locks, and was dis
charged, and said he would not join the
ioxey army, but wonld go on east in ad
vance of them. The other man had a
black, whisky flask : containing liquor.
Jjotn were pretty drank. .
These facts were developed ' at the in
quest.; t The other witnesses were rail
road men; who testified as to t.h rnn
dition of the body when found. He was
fearfully mangled and torn. One arm
lay 100 feet away. A foot lay 25 feet from
tne ooay. urne trunk was cut in two in
the region of the hins. and the brain b
were . scattered all along the track.
Death was almost instantaneous.
In a pants pocket was found 1:2.55 in
silver, wrapped up in a white silk hand-
Kercnief, with , the pass book before
mentioned, and in his left vest nocket
was found a $5 greenback.
The following is . the verdict of the
coroner's jury : ; .. ' ' -
In the mattpr of on inn
body of an unknown man found on the
U. P.' Tftilrnnrl nt. Ttoo C.Ur.t.
Wasco county, Or., we, the jurors em
nAneld. in thn aW- Antitli
our deliberations, find that the name of
the party was A, Butteriy, and we fur
ther find that said Butterly came to his 1
death by falling irom and being run
over, by the east-bound paspeneep- train
leaving The Dalles on the night of the
25th of April, 1894; that we further con
sider it to be purely and accidental death,
and from no nanoa of niwiiran.. .u '
par of the' railroad company.

THE MARKETS.'
Business S
(ill Onlet Openlnc of the
Wool Season. .
. Fruay, April 27. This week jost
rlosinir is a continuation of the previous
.one. A general degree of quietness pre
vails in all kinds of business in the city.
The wool has commenced to arrive from
the sheep ranches, which is an omen of
activity, not only in trade circles, but in
all kinds of business in the near future.
Produce. and provisions are in usual de
mand, and receipts are fully up to re
quirements. The ere market is steady on last
quotations, but a falling off in receipts
is noticed.
- The batter market is unchanged.
The poultry market, while there is a
falling off in receipts', former quotations
are adhered to.
'The potatoe market is quite lifeless.
The receipts have almost ceased and a
bare market is only a question of a short
time.
The cereal market is as quiet as
formerly. There ave no changed to
record in quotations of feed grain or
wheat. ' ' '
The condition of the hav . market is
of a weak character. ' Timothy hay is
said to be unsalable on account of the
large quantity of other kinds of forage
on hand.
The wool clip has commenced to come
to the warehouses, but" the . season is
early for the wool . movement. -The
market baa not assumed any spirit of
interest. Some buyers talk of a prob
able quotation of. 8 and 9 cents per lb
for extra clean and fine staple, and 4 to
6 cents for heavy and dirty fleeces. We
understand a very small amount will be
shipped on consignment this season, but
on the other hand it will be sold at The
Dalles eo as to clean up old scores which,
owing to the paralyzed condition of the
country, were carried over on to 1894.
Wool bags are in moderate supply at
40 cents for 4-pound bags. ' . v
The Jive stock market Is, very weak
and has a declining tendency.
