About three and one-half tons of mail,

the east Tuesday was sent down on the
Regulator this morning. .
The republican club will meet at its
hall on 8-Mile at 7 :30 Saturday evening,
Some of the candidates will be present
and address the meeting. '
Mr. Blanford of the .Weather Bureau,
telephoned as at 11 o'clock this morning
that at 8 o'clock the river was at a stand
at Umatilla and Riparia.
. : The electric lights went out Tuesday
night and coal oil and candles will hold
sway until the water falls. In other
words, the Columbia will have to go to
its bed by candlelight Let' us hope that
like the old-fashioned meetings it will
be "early candlelight."
The water at Umatilla raised 2 inches
in the twelve hours .ending at 4 o'clock.
This is the latest and is reliable.
Reports from 5-Mile, are to the effect
that awery heavy rain storm swept ever
that section last night, in some places
being little short of a cloudburst.
"' The petit jury were excused Tuesday
afternoon by Judge Bradshaw until next

Winans Bros, lost another fish-wheel
yesterday, the last one they owned on
the Washington side. They are not of
the kind to be discouraged, and are bard
at work making wheels to take the place
of those gone out. They don't propose
to lose the entire season. ' .
Mr. W. J. Harrison showed us some
cheat grass picked alongside a wheat
field on 5-Mile, that is a mass of smut.
This will probably account for the smut
in the grain where the seed has been
properly vitrioled. Farmers will do well
to, examine into the matter.

red sash and a tenor voice he would be
the boss gondolier ; indeed we are in
clined to concede him the title as it is,
for he is yet only paragenic. -
Portland is in' the swim ; but the
water at latest date (yesterday morning)
was not up to the mark of 1890, although
the Columbia is above it, or that of 1876.
The highest water Portland has ever
had was in 1890, coming from the Wil
lamette, the mark being June 24, 1876,
28.3f and February 5, 1890, 28.7. The
record will be made this year, however,
as the water we have already already
allowed to pass us (having more than we
want) will do the business:
The Union Pacific is bringing its
steamer Almota down to Celilo, she hav
ing left Riparia this morning. It is
probable arrangements will be made
with the D. P. & A. N. Co. by which
communication will be again opened
with the east, the mails and express
being taken, to Celilo in wagons from
here. If this is done the portage at the
Cascades will probably be opened.
Mrs. C. F. Stephens arrived home on
the Regulator yesterday. She came
from Portland Tuesday morning on the
train, being told that the train would
get through all right. -At Bridal Veil
the engine and a lot of freight cars went
down with an undermined bridge. A
transfer being made, she came on to
Bonneville, and there the train was
stopped. She remained in the car un
til Wednesday morning; and upon her
request that the company either send
her to her destination or return her
money being denied, she boarded the
steamer Dalles City and'arrived home
Wednesday nigbt. The Union Pacific
has a waste of waters and a right of way
but one thing will never be hurt by fire
or flood, and that is its cheek.

five inches more water.
Maier & Benton, stove dealers, are
still at their old stand, bat have elevated
part of their stock. Twelve inches more
of rise will put the floor under water.-
City Treasurer Burget has moved his

Third street. '
Frazer & Wyndham have moved their

The old Wasco Sun office is in the
swim, having doused its glim.
.-all the business houses on Second
street west of, The Dalles National bank
are closed, water having taken posses
sion.
The Dalles National bank can stand
thirteen inches more of a rise before the
floor will be under the flood.? ; :.
All of Front street is inundated, and
skins are saned . from end to end ot it
The U. P. R. R. Co.'s shop grounds, as
well as their bridges, are completely
submerged. The long trestle near the
the Umatilla House, is weighted down
with loaded cars. , . . .
East-end is all right so far, Joles,
Collins & Co. have about four feet to go
on before they will be compelled to seek
a higher location.
Jos.' T. Peters, hardware house and
lumber yards, are being encroached on
by the flood. The lumber yard is in a
dangerous condition. .
The Hood - livery stable, owned by
Ward, Kerns & Co., is pretty well sur
rounded by water, and part of the floor
is pretty well , soaked. Their other
stables are above , any ' danger of the
flood.
' Messrs. Mays & Crowe are all right
yet, so are Pease & Mays, but 18 or 20
inches of a rise would cause serious
trouble on account' of their immense
stock of agricultural implements, general
merchandise,' hardware, ' etc., which
would have to be moved.. The water has
so encreached on the city that it is on
three of the streets running east and
west. ' The D. P. & A. N. Co. are com
pelled to land their steamer . Regulator
opposite the U. P. R. R. depot and the
approach is confined to only one point,
the others being submerged.
The Chboniclk office can stand 22 in
ches of a rise before it will be compelled
to evacuate. In that event The Dalles
will be not only in the darkness, but
without its regular evening visitor.

The Iast of Hayes.
Justice Brigham of Dufur, held an in
quest on the- body of Hayes Monday.
Dr. Dietrich of Dufur made an examina
tion of the bedy and after hearing his
testimony the jury brought in the fol
lowing verdict.
"We. the- undersigned jurors, sum
moned, to sit upon the body of the man
found on Fifteen Mile Creek some
twenty miles, more or less, above Dufur,
after examining the surroundings and
listening to the report of the' physician,
making the post mortem examination,
do find as follows That deceased was
known as Jack Hayes. That the wound
in his abdomen was accidentally caused,
but that the wound on his cranium was
the direct cause of his death, and was
made by one or the other of his com
panions, whom all evidence points out to
us to be John Hawthorne and Walter
Rowe. We, therefore, do charge said
Rowe and Hawthorne, one' or both of
them, with the crime of murder. '

'Fbakk Peabody, -H.
M. Pitman,
Timothy Bbowk,

C. ROBEBTS.
The doctors examination disclosed a
ballet wound in the groini the bullet
striking the upper edge of the' pelvic
bone glancing along it for several inches,
striking the back bone and finally stop
ping just under the skin. The bullet
was concave on the- side where it had
followed the pelvic bone, and was a
short ball, fired from a' pistol; or at
least so the ball indicates by its grooves,
Another wound in the back of the head
must have caused death instantly. The
bullet entered at two inches above, and
an inch back of-the righl ear, coming
out an inch or so above the corner of the
left eye. The body was lying on its
back when found, the head propped up
on a shoe, and was evidently in that
position when the fatal shot was fired
The doctor extracted the bullet from the
pistol of the deceased for . comparison
with that taken from: the body, and
found that the . latter, was 63 grains
lighter than the former. The hair was
not .powder burned arid the bullet that
produced death could not have been
fired by the deceased.
The Outlook Bad., '
We do not want to be classed as. a
croaker, bp t we confess that we can
draw no consolation from the reports
concerning the stage of the river above
us. While the Snake is at a stand and
Umatilla reports the Columbia also at a
stand, we know, that there is more
coming. The dispatches of the 29th say
the Frazier river . is the highest ever
known and ,this indicates very warm
weather at the head of the Columbia
The same day the bridge across the
Columbia on the Canadian Pacific was
swept away. We can interpret this to
mean only that a still farther rise is at
hand. - ' .
