Chicago. July 11. Twenty-live con

ptesident and other officials' of the
Jockey Club, and also nil bookmak
ers. Including O'Ueary. Weller mid
Gardner and also the clerk or the
scales, race judges and all Plnkerton
detectives now on duty at tne track.
A raid was attempted yesterday,
but the Plnkertons prevented any ar
rests. Justice HradwelPs Instruc
tions to the constables said, "You nro
to break up all gambling 0u that
track. IJeacuse. the Jockey Club Is
rich and powerful, it does not miti
gate the fact that they are common
gamblers. Plnkerton men should be
taught a lesson and made to respect
law. They are especially presumptu
ous. Shoot your way Into the park
race track if resisted."
Bremerton Saloons Permitted to Run
By Court.
Seattle. Wash.. July 11. The sn
loons In Uremerton, tho llltlu town
near the Pugct Sound navy yard which
were closed by tho council a few
weeks ago because the navy depart
ment objected to them, have nil re
opened despite the protest of the
council. The keepers have sued In
court to determine tho right of tho
council to revoke their licenses and
tho courts have allowed the saloons
to open until the ease enn bo hoard.
More trouble Is now expected from
the navy ard, and It would not bo
surprising If an order Issued directing
all essels to lenve there that nro

Dissatisfied With South American
Post Comes Home to Grants Pass.
Portland, July 11. The announce
ment that G. W. Colvig had left his
post as United States consul to Co
lombla and was on his way to his
home in Grants Pass occasioned con
siderable comment concerning the
probable naming of his successor, a
matter that will fall to the Oregon
delegation.
.Mr. Colvig received his appoint
ment through Senator Mitchell, to
whom he swung the whole or Dinger
Hermann's following In the senatorial
contest of 1901. It has been known
tor some time that Colvig was dis
satisfied with his present appoint
ment and would not remain in South
America. In view of the fact that
Senator Mitchell owes him so much
it Is deemed not impossible that Col
vig will be privileged to name his
own successor.
In an Interview this morning both
01 Oregon's senators stated that noth
ing was being considered at today's
gathering relative to appointments.
That being the case, It is understood
that .Mr Colvlg's successor has not
lii'.Ti selected.

ATHENA CORN AND WHEAT.
Clark Walters Has 80 Acres of Fine
Corn Wheat Crop Spotted.
Claik Wallers, of Athena, one of
the pioneer farmers of Umatilla coun
ty, was lu the city today and reports
the com and wheat cropH of that vi
cinity In excellent condition.
Mr. Walters has So acres of corn
that now promises lo make from 2:t
to 211 busels per acre. Tho past
week has boon most highly satisfac
tory ror corn, and tho wheat crops
are aNo ripening Tast.
Mr. Walters says that more and
more corn will bo raised lu this coun
ty as the runnel s come to understand
Its value as a reed, mid nlso ns a
diversity ror tho soli. Homo soils nro
beuellled greatly by tho cultivation
ami rertlll.lug consequent on 11 com
crop. in that vicinity, Increased
wheat yields have been secured by
alternating with corn.
One or tho greatest valuoH to ho
derived from a cum crop In this
country Is from Its use as feed. No
grulu will make better rut or mnko
It quicker than corn, The slueddlng
machine used lu tho East has licoii In
troduced at Athena, and tho fodder
rut up Into u lino grade or reed, which
Is eaten up clean by stock.
Much or the soil or Umatilla county
Ih especially adapted to a corn crop.
The cllumto Is nlso highly conducive
to growth mid when runners learn to
rest their soli by changing crops, tho
output or this cereal will Nil 111 01111
or the most profllnhlo crops raised.
.Mr. Walters visited Minnesota last
year after an absence of 2G years, and
was surprised to llnd such an In
creased corn area and so many dairies
11 Unit statu, lie thinks the huiikj
change will gradually come lo tho
West, although not In bo largo do-
greo.
Speaktiii; of the wheat crop In tho
vicinity of Athena, Mr. Walters says
It Is somewhat spotted. Homo fields
will yield 46 bushels per ucro 11 ml
some but IC bushels.
