iery thick, while in others there

carried on in only e portion of the

would be a big crop, but the indi

After Maoy Years a Murderer Con
fesses Bis Crime.
Alpena. Mich.. Aug. 1. Word
has just reached here from Rogers
City, Presque Isle county, of the
unraveling of a sixteen-year-old
mystery by a confession. Albert
Moliter waa then treasurer of
Presque Isle county, and was
called the king of the county. One
night he, in company with Edward
Sullivan, his bookkeeper, was in
the office when the wiodowglass
was shattered by a bullet and both
fell dead. The' crime was a mys
tery until to-day. William Repke
confessed to participating in the
murder, and in the confession im
plicates a number of prominent
citizens of Rogers City, among
whoin are August Uoshn, Carl
Voeler. August Forest. Ferd.Brude,
Henry Jacobs, Gottlieb 'Lamlwrt A
Herman Menzi, Unarles wesaei-
gert and August Thurman, all of
them well known. The crime was
committed August 12, 1875, and
Repke says ..he confessed because
bad luck hat followed him in the
past few years, his children dying
and his sleeu being broken, his
property burning, all on accountof
the crime.

A PERSISTENT WOSER,
Ha Succeeds lu Being Snubbed by
an English Princess,
London. August 1. It ia said
the Prince of Naples has been
badly snubbed by the Princess
Maud of Wales, to whom be took
the opportunity, on hii visit to
Ensland. Maud is rather the
Drettieat of all the Drince's three
daughters, and has sweet and en
gaging manners, ine meeting
with JSapies, nowever, was me
first time that she had been
brought nearer than a mere intro
duction to the Italian, and her
emphatic way of repelling hia
poiiLti appruaciiea is aaiu iw ubvc
been amusing to tue aeiect party
present on the occasion. Naples
evidently felt it deeply. It waa
not the nrst time ne lias been
been snubbed by the royal Teu
tons. About a year ago he went
courting the young Princess Mar-
guerite, sister of the kaiser. The
kaiser himself was not unwilling,
but Marguerite evinced from the
first an insuperable repugnance for
the youth, and would hare noth
ing to do with him. She was sus
tained by her mother.the Empress
Frederick, who is devoted to Mar
guerite. Where the Italian will
get his next snub is as yet uncer
tain, but the indications are that
he will have to seek a wife among
the royalties of Southern Europe.
The North has given him very
chilling treatment.

It has been announced that
Sella Bros', circus has made an
exclusive contract with the South
ern Pacific railroad company to
carry their circus over the lines of
the company to the exclusion of
any other circus this season ; that
the management ot the torepaugb
circus Bent a man to the San Fran
cisco headquarters of the railroad
company to make arrangements
lor transportation after the com
tracts with Sella Bros, was entered
into : that he went there and de
manded transportation , saying the
Forepangb people' would enforce
their rights from the company as
common carriers; that lie was
told by the railroad management
that he had come a long way to
instruct them as to their , legal
obligations : that the Southern Pa
cine was a common carrier and
was ready to enter into a contiact
at once to carry the circua at
local rates from town to trwn
amounting to about $13,000 a day,
as mncn as any circus can take in.
The Forepaugh circus will come to
Portland, but could not, it has
been said, cojie up the Willamette
valley. The state railroad com'
missioners are looking into the
matter. They don't exactly un
deratand now the sella circua can
be given an "exclusive" rate by
the Southern Pacific. The inter
state laws, if not the state laws.
will admit of no such discrimina
tion, and it is quite probable that
Forepaugh will visit Albany in
September as announced. The
law is to the efiect that a railroad
company shall not charge any per
son more for similar and contem
poraneous service than it chargea
another.

LONGSTREET WINS

Beaten Twelve Lengths.
IT WAS AN EXCITING RACE.
Bstting Was 81lghtly ia Favor of Tsnny
25,000 Fsopls Witness tbs Qraat
st Bscs of tbs Beaaoa.
Mokkis Park, Aug, 1. The
great Tenny-Longsireet race has
been won and lost. Fully 25.000
people witnessed the struggle for
Bubremacv: -.The horses were in
splendid condition and run the
race of their lives.
A more perfect day could not
have been made. The sunshine
was tempered with a pleasant
breeze and the track was made
perfect by unceasing work since
yesterday. There was very little
choice in betting, but there seemed
to be a slight lean toward Tenny,
but each found plenty of backers
in the hotel and theater lobbies
and clubs last night. Several wa
gers were made of $500 to $400 on
Tenny. On the other hand, a
Western man who had seen Long
street perform at Jerome Thurs
day, bet $1000 to $900 he would be
the first under the wire to-day. At
the track this morning Tenny was
slightly the! favorite with book
makers ; odds being, Tenny, 3 to 5 ;
Longstreet, 4 to 5.
The gongs sounded for the strag
gle and the crowd surged to the
best point of view-hanging over
the railing that divides the betting
ring from the track, all excited,
almost breathless to see the start.
"They are oft," passed along the
line. Longstreet came down the
homestretch twelve lengths ahead
and 10,000 voices simultaneously
shouted, "Tenny ia beaten." The
riders were, Longstreet, Hamlin,
and Tenny, Barnes. Each jockey
rode at 120 pounds.

Wheat Crop of Kansas.
Kansas Citv.Aug. I. The wheat
circulars of the national farmer's
alliance, advising the holding back
of grain for higher prices, have
just been received in Kansas, and
stories of obedience of fanners in
thisatate are decidedly premature,
If the circulars are to have effect
there ia not yet time for them to
habe accomplished anything.
There ia undoubtedly a disposition
among larmera who are in a posi
tion to do so to hold wheat, but
nearly all of them are in pressing
need of money, and there are
enough of these to harvest wheat
as fast as it can be moved by the
railroads, and if the grain is not
moved fast the railroads are to
blame. The large yield this year
uas naa tue enect ot sinnaiaung
larmera to put in a large acreage
and next year the wheat area will
be greatly in excess ol tbis, espec
ially in Western Kansas.
