Oregon City, Juno 30. The fa'milybf

he was seized with vomiting and severe
pains, as oib miner ou ueeo a soon
: time before. At breakfast the father
- drank only a cup of coffee, after which
mother also sipped a little coffee and
partoek of nothing else. The four other
' children ate their nieal as usual, and
soon afterward they manifested the same
symptoms their falher and little brother
caa enown.
TTDtoihis time Mr.- and Mrs. Heil-
. man did not suspect what the trouble
was or that anything very serious was
' lar attacka at three different . times dur
: ins the past year, and thev were attri-
- Duiea to cnanges ot weatner or 100a.
But this time, instead of improving after
the first Bharp illness, the baby grew
worse, and toward noon a message was
sent to a neighbor to crv for a dnrtnr.

doctor, the little fellow went into spasms
and died. The condition of the other
children was also alarming, , and Dr.
Hickman,- of ClackamaB, was hastily
summoned. He saw at once that it was
a case of poisoning, and a cursory ex
amination of the water barrel' showed
him there was the source of mischief,
. for the insoluble crystals of strychnine
were plainly visible in the barrel, and
in such quantity that -when it was upset
. the alkaloid showed in the trail of the
water. An ounce vial that "had con
tained the strychnine was fonnd near
by. The doctor gave the patients treat-

. to be out of danger three girls.' The
eldest child, a 12-year-old boy, at last
accounts was thought to be dying. .
COCKBBLIi II TOR RUKD.
He Ii WOUir, Bewerer, . ta Support
Any Silver Candidate.
Chicago, June 20. Senator Cockrell
was among today's arrivals. He is a
delegate to. the national Democratic con
vention, and is here to attend the silver
conference.
"We shall nominate a straight' silver
man on an unequivocal silver declara
tion in the platform," he said, when
asked for an expression of his views.
"I am, of course, for Bland," he con
' tinned, "and our delegation is instruct
ed for him, but if we cannot get him
we shall get some other man who is
sound on the currency question, and
Missouri will support him at the polls.
Mr. Bland Is a safe, practical man, and
it elected., would be entirely reliable as
Highest of all in Leavening Power.
president. -There can be no doubts on
that score. I have not, however, de
voted myself to finding presidential ma
terial, as X have been making sure of a
silver majority in the convention. That
assured, we-shall have but little diffi
culty in finding an available man for
president." .
The senator thinks the financial ques
tion will be made the paramount issue
in the platform, and that there will be
a square declaration for the mintage of
silver on terms of equality with gold at
16 to 1, and without awaiting the co-operation
of other nations. :. He laughs at
Mr. Whitney's suggestion 6t a compro
mise, and says it will not . be enter
tained. He-does'-not believe an une
quivocal -silver plank will drive many
Eastern men out of the party, and ar
gues that, on the contrary, it will bring
many votes to the party that cannot be
caught in any other way.
"We shall gain immensely in the
West," he said, "and we shall not lose
in the East. The people have not yet
come to a full realization of the strength
of the silver movement. ' It will sweep
the country at the polls as it baa swept
the Democratic party at the primaries."
Senator Cockrell does not consider
that there is any danger of a bolt by the
New York or Eastern delegates.
Senator Stewart InterTlewed.
Dknvek, June 29. A special to -the
News from Washington gives an inter
view 'with Senator Stewart, of Nevada.
It is in part as follows. '
"What men do you think would best
unite the silver forces of the country?"
"The two men who appear to com
mand the confidence of all people alike
are Henry M. Teller and Joseph C. Sib
ley. For character and ability, Henry
M. Teller is the Deer of any statesman
in the United States. His ability is
equal to that of any .man who has run
for the office of president - in the last
half-century.. He was a Democrat pre
vious to the war. Since then, he was a
Rep blican until the St. Louis conven
tion, hi nee which time he belongs to no
party. He is an American citizen, and
belongs to the people alike.".
"Could the Democrats afford to nomi
nate Teller?" '
"I think they can afford to nominate
a man who will insure success. I think
thev can afford to have success."
. "Will . the Populists support Mr.
Teller?"- ' - '-' ' ,
"Certainly. The Populists could vote
for Mr. Teller. Mr. Teller has done re
cently what the Populists did long ago
,He , has left his party because he be
lieved his party was against the coun
try." --- ' ,
Treops After the Apaches.
. Tucson, Ariz., June 30. A special to
the Star frpm'Tombstone says that Unit
ed States troops under Lieutenants
Averill and Yates su prised an Apache
camp' in Sonora about 40 miles below
the line. The Indians were evidently
informed by a scout of tne presence of
the troops,, as all made their escape ex
