The euit of Urquhart against Eshel-
man has been occupying the time of the
recorder this afternoon. The action
was brought to recover "constable fees in

amount of argument over some of the
legal points that there are several knotty
questions involved.
Mr. J. R. Bone came up from Van

the especially low rates to Portland
caused by the D. P. & A. N. Co. 'a boats
that this market is one of the highest
priced ones in the Northwest, and that
he can get his grain from Portland at as
favorable prices as from here.
Yesterday afternoon the officers quietly
took the six quarantined persons to the
pest house, and had them safely lodged
therein before anyone knew anything
about it. Up to date none of them have
shown any symptoms of the disease,
though, this ia the sixth day since they
were exposed. By Monday both scare
and danger will be over, unless in the
meanwhile a new case should develop.
This is possible, of course, but hardly
probable.
Mrs. Mattie A. Oilar. of Hood River
as arrested a few days ago on the com-
aint of the road supervisor of that dis
trict, charged with obstructing a public
highway, and was tried before Justice
Soesbe, of that precinct, yesterday, found
guilty and 'fined. The caBe will be ap
pealed. The road which MrB. Oilar is
charged with obstructing, is that portion
of the old Dalles and Sandy wagon road
leading from a point a few rods west of
he Hood River bridge to the river,a
distance of perhaps fifty yards. Mrs.
Oilar owns the land, and claims that the
change in the road from the old route,
which crossed the river and came out on
the cast side near the end ot the railroad
bridge, to its present route, was an
abandonment of that portion of the road.
The matter has been a source of con
tinual quarreling and we hope will now
be settled permanently.

How the New Remedy for Diphtheria
Was Discovered.
A number of series of experimental
observations regarding the nature
and causation of diphtheria pre
ceded the discovery of the new remedy.
These began with the discovery of the
diphtheria bacillus by Klebs in 1883.
In the follawing year, 1884, the organ
isms described by Kleba were more care
fully studied by Loeffler, were cultivated
outside the living body, and diphtheria,
or a disease resembling it,was reproduced
in animals by inoculating them with
the cultures of this germ. Loeffler was
unable, however, to reproduce the vari
ous form of paralysis which frequently
follow diphtheria, but Roux and Yersin,
in Paris, in 1888, succeeded in reproduc
ing artificially, by the inoculation of
animals with cultures of the diphtheria
bacillus, a perfectly characteristic diph
theretic paralysis, and they were also
successful in separating from the cul
tures of this organism a poison (the
diphtheria toxine) with which they also
produced paralysis in animals. Then
Behring and Kitasato, in Berlin, found
that by the inoculation of animals with
the poison obtained from cultures of the
diphtheria bacillus they could be gradu
ally rendered extraordinarily insuscep
tible to both the poison and the diph
theria bacilli themselves. They further
showed that this insusceptibility or im
munity was due to the formation and
presence in the blood of some substance
which it has not been-possible to sepa
rate chemically, and which is known as
the diphtheria anti-toxine, or, from its
wonderful action, the curative serum
Then followed experiments by Behring,
Ehrlich, and other observers in Ger
many, and Roux in Paris, experiments
designed to make this discovery practi
cally available for the prevention and
treatment of diphtheria in the human
being.
The first important results of these ex
periments were published in the early
part ot last year, and tney snowed a
striking diminution in the" mortality, in
a series of caBea of diphtheria subjected
to the new treatment. The results ob
tained in these first cases have been
more than confirmed by subsequent ex
perience in the treatment of this dis
ease. Dr. Hermann M. Biggs, in Mc-
Clures Magazine for March.
A Broad-Minded Railroad Manager.
Receiver McNeill is in the city. In
conversation with a Chronicle reporter
this morning, he took what we think is a
sensible view of the boat railway propo
sition, although it ' is one seldom ex
pressed by men in his position. Al
though manager of the O. R. & N he is a
firm friend of the boat railway proposi
tion, and thinks that the opening of
the Columbia instead of injuring that
road will benefit it greatly. That it will
open , up the "Inland Empire to settle
ment, will result in rapid increase of
population, and will in a few years
double the products of the country. The
rates will, of course, be reduced, but this
will be more than compensated for by
the greater amounts carried. Though

not saying so, it was plainly to be seen
that Major McNeill is a firm believer in
the doctrine that like causes produce
like effects, and that even with the river
open the railroad would here, as other
roads do that parallel the Ohio, Miss
issippi and other great streams, carry
the greater portion of the products of the
country to market. He expressed the
opinion that the whole Northwest should
unite in petitioning congress for an ap
propriation sufficient to complete the
boat railway at once, and that if this
were done the wore could be accom
plished within eighteen months.
Concerning the locks at the Cascades,
he said, "the end can now be seen, and a
very brief time will see that work ac
complished." From all of which it can
be seen that Major McNeil is a broad-
minded gentleman, mho can see beyond
the apparent results of improving the
Columbia, and realize what will actually
occur, and further that he appreciates
the fact that Eastern Oaegon cannot de
velop and prosper, no matter nnder
what circumstances, but that the O. R.
& N. will be benefited thereby.
" Died at Her Work.
Mrs. Sarah States died suddenly this
morning at 11 o'clock, at the residence
of D. J. Cooper in this city. Mrs. States
has earned her living by washing and
doing house cleaning and such work,
and has done the washing for Mr.
Cooper's family for some .time. Last
week she bad an attack of dizziness and
fell while at her work at Mr. Cooper's,
but recovered in a few moments and
completed her work. This morning she
was engaged in washingin the kitchen,
Mvs. Cooper being at work upstairs in
the room over the kitchen. Being called
to another part of the house for a few
moments, Mrs. Cooper noticed on her
return that there was utter . silence in
the kitchen and fearing Mrs. States had
suffered a recurrence of the attack of
dizziness hastened down stairs. Enter'
ing the kitchen she found Mrs. States
bad fallen, her head being over the edge
of the tub and her neck wedged between
the latter and the poet of the wringer.
Help was called and the unfortunate
woman released from her position
There wa"s a livid mark across her throat
whore it had rested upon the edge of -the
tub, and it is quite probable she choked
to death, having tainted and fallen
where she was found.
Deceased had been a resident ot The
Dalles for a number of years and though
69 years of age, was an industrious and
self reliant woman. She had no rela
tions here, but one daughter lives in
California, who was telegraphed the sad
news at once.
