(Halting on llogilt, lcleer, (). P.. Hardy, of Hold Hill, has been doing some wholesale blast ing in order to change the channel of Rogue river at Gold Hill for mining purposes. One day re cently there were twelve shots ar ranged, varying in size iroui no io 'J,r)0 pounds of giant powder, and in depth from six to ten feet. A ton-foot fuse was used and took aVmt five minutes to burn. The spectacle, reminded one more of a gi.yger in eruption than anything e'se. It took several minutes lor a l the shuts to explxle and it seemed as though each succeeding ehot was louder and threw dirt and rocks higher than the preced ing one until it reached a tieigut of several hundred feet. Rocks weighing 250 pounds were lifted high in the air and landed half a mile away. The depth of the charge tended to keep everything within a short radius. 1 ha ground shook for the distance of a couple of miles as though a sevore earth quake was in operation, and the sound of the explosion could be heard for miles. T wo-Ttalrda of a Crop. The Salem Statesman says: Out on Howell prairie and on toward Silverton, where hop picking was commenced so earnestly a few days ago, the growers or some of them have taaen olT their pickera and will not harvest their crop. They say they lind so many lice and the hops in such poor condi tion from the ravages of the insect that they believe it will not pay to pick them. The Bowen brothers, after picking a ton, have ceased all work. After the hops were picked they fouud it so much work to separate the good berries from the mouldy ones that they would not pick at all. Last year they had 100 bales. Hugh Smith will also probably not pick a hop. His yard ia lousy and is close to the Bowen yards. Mounts will not have oyer a fifth of a crop. Kays wHI have probably three-fourths ot a crop, and J er man will have about a half crop. Bumming it all up, buyers and growers are of the opinion that there will not be over two-thirds of a yield in this part of the country this year. ' There are many new yards, bat it cannot be said the acreage of bearing yards is tliis any greater tban it w as last. The high prices of 1890 encouraged many people to plant hops, but these yards cannot be figured on this year, for hop vines never bear much the first year. - It is likely the 1892 acreage will be large, but that of 1891 is not greater than it was the preceding year. No price is quoted on hops, as there are jione in market. -As soon aa sam ples oi tne crop carr ne Bcnr-Kksi, lor examination a figure will bt named, and from present indica tions it is not questioned that the figure will be prettv well up. The nominal quotations are now l"(a 20c. Buyers think a good quality nop will bring a good price as soon as the market is fairly open. From some sections of the country good reports come. On the higher grounds there are fewer lice, while on lowland yards the pest is revel ing. The Levy and Dove yard' are practically tree from vermin, and these are large fields. Mr. Beards ley is still in doubt whether or not it will pay him to pick. Last year he had about 300 bales. The ex pease of picking, cuting and pack ing is so great (about be. per pound) that many growers don't feel like making a costly experi ment on hops that may "prove un marketable. (iliKEN KETIKM. Ami Is Net Disconcerted Willi Ills Kscapadr. New York, Aug. 2!. Douglas Green, who was, until nearly two years ago, a member of the linn of Green A Batemah, of this city, well-known stockbrokers, baa re turned to Wall street for the first tine since he ran away w ith Alice Snell McCrea. He was apparently in the test of health and spirits. Mr. Green had htt.e to say of bis future intentions. He had been in San Francisco and intended to readjust his business alLi'rs in New York as speedily as possible. It is said bv those who gossip about his return that several oilers had been made for his services by concerns which regarded him as a good broker and skillful operator in the stock marlet. One story was to the effect that Mr. Green would establish himself here as the New York representative of 1). Armour, ol Chicago, with whom he is said to be on the best of terms. Another story was that he would not be content to operate as agent, but would begin business on his own hook. Of his career since he left New York Mr. Green said little even to his most intimate friends. Some who had talks of a more or less confidential nature w ith him said that he had not been idle while in Europe and San Francisco, but had been doing considerable speculat ing all the time he had been away from Wall street. It is said that ho would not make application for reinstatement as a member of the Uock Exchange. MYSTEKV KV1I.AINK1I. I Watch lu a Fish Interior Tell, (he Story. Ni:w H.wkn, Conn., Aug. 20. The mystery which has for two years Furrounded the sudden dis appearance of Charles Whaley, of North Lynn, is believed to have been cleared up. Joshua Halford caught a picker al in a hog pound in Lyme which weighed between live and six poinds. When preparing the fish for cooking Halford found in i s stomach agold watch and chain. On the inside of the watch case was engraved the name of Charles Whaley. It was shown to peo ple who knew Whaley and they at once recogniz. d it its the time piece he was accustomed to cany. This proves that Whaley was drowned. On the morning of July .1, 18SH, Whaley told the foreman of his farm that he was going to Hartford on a business trip, and would be absent for several days. He was never seen again. Whaley was a bachelor and was reputed to be worth $150,000. The general be lief is that he committed suicide. ILLEGAL. KLKCTIONS. Nona That Will Hold for Two l'eara, Galveston, Tex., Aug. 2:. Great excitement prevails in this city, owing to the discovery that the charter amendments govern ing the election of city officers, as passed by the legislature, are njt according to law, and that every election held in the state recently is null and void. This opinion is concurred in by the most eminent lawyers in Galveston, and the ef fect of the opinion has created quite a panic among the munici pal officers. At the October elec tion the mayor and city council and several subordinate officers were balloted for, and the fortu nate candidates took their places and things raa smoothly until this bombshell was exploded. Smoke th celebrated Havana filled 5-cent igars, manufactured at Julius Joss ih's cigar factory. WAR IN CHILL The Insurgents Gain the Day After Fierce Fighting, UAL. HACK DA HAS - FLITTED, Eren Naval Matters Favor -tha Iisar gsats -It ia Mora Thai ProhabU " the War. ii Ended. "."''.. New York: Aug. 20. Latest dispatches confirm the news that Balmaceda's power in Chili - if broken. His army . has' -, beet crushed after . five hours hard ligbtiDcr and scattered bevond all iioe of, rewrganitallors Toe rev olutionists have taken' possession of Valparaiso, with jlaliiiaceda practically a fugitive without re nmrces in men or money, with the principal seap jrts in the hands uf the congiessionalists. With President-elect Vienna a refugee on board a German man of war, and the country flocking in mass es to the standaid of of the in vaders, it is a matter of only a few days w hen the capital will fall into the hands of the revolutionary leaders. General Canto and his army won yesterday's battle by superior generalship and hard fighting, assisted by good fortune in killing oil Balmaceda's gener als and the consequent demoraliz ation of the army and desertion of entire regiments. Furthermore there has not' been harmony in the military council of President Balmaceda, as both Barbora and Alezorreca wanted the supreme command. This jealousy resulted in an a'rnost op-Mi rupture, and these ollicers worked at cross pur ines. The battle commenced earlv yesterday and raged fiercely. The insurgent troops were on the hills abn-e the race track at Vina del Mar and held control of the rail road. Balmaceda's troops moved to dislodge tlieiit. As soon as the appro iching col umns got within range a destruc tive fire was opened by the en trenched revolutionists. The government troops, however, ad vanced steadily. They were soon near enough lo return the lire, but shot, shell, grape and cannister tore thiotigh their ranks, until, despite the elTorts of the officers, they broke and retire !, almost in a panic. As soon as they got out side of the range of the deadly tire, the officers worked like beavers to reform their column. and at last mieceeiL'd. Then came another attack. In steadv ranks the government troops started on double-quick time up into the torrents of lire and lead which blazed from the insurgents' ranks. General Barbora was killed and the line wavered for an instant but then went on. A short distance further on, General Alzerreca fell from his hoie wounded unto death. Again the line wavered and General Canto gave the order to charge, with a wild yell. The congressional armv left their defences anu charged on the now retieating armv. The artillery poured a leadlv fire into the ranks of Bal maceda's troops. The loss of olli cers had left the latter without a head and all efforts of the subor dinate officers to rally them were of no avail. The retreat became a rout and a panic and then utter demoralization. The government cavalry made a stand, but it was short. 'i'liev were liteially cut to pieces. Volley after volley was poured into the demoralized mob. The desertion of whole regiments from Balmaceda's command to the ranks of the insurgents is confirmed- They were those, however, who had been forced into the ser vice, and took the first opportunity to escape to the other side. By advice the marines from I'uited states v.. ir chins in the harbor of Valparaiso were sent on shore to protect the United States consul, etc., rendering important service. Balmaceda s whereabouts are still unknown, but it is thought he has made good ids e scape. RAII.KOAII AT AICTION, jew Combinations ISlork lis Pros pects and It Stops. Ciik aoo, Aug. 2f. Rv order of the I'uited States circuit court, the Piicitic Short Line railroad will be sold at auction next Tuesday under foreclosure proceedings. Among the bidders it is under stood will be the Illinois Central, Chii ago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and Northwestern. The road was originally intended to run from Sioux City to Ogden, T. TV, par alleling the Union Pacific and shortening by several hundred miles the present rail distance from the Missouri river to the Pa cific slope. L p to last fall the road has been built between Sioux Citv and O'Neal, 130 miles. The enterprise looked promising enough until last fall's financial panic. Then Gould had gobbled the Union Pa cific, and it. was understood to be hand in glove with Hunting'on, who controls the Central l'acific. The latter road, which is the only outlet from Ogden to the Pacific coast, was in hostile hands there fore, nd the l'acihc hiiort L-ine people decided that it would be follv under the circumstances to complete the line, so the property was allowed io go into me imiiu. of a receiver, and ia now to be S ld.' The Illinois Central la amid to b anxious to get possession of tba road, so as to gain access to the Black Hills territory. If tha Chi cago and Northwestern buy. it, it . may ultimately be completed to Ogden, if not actually extended ' to the Pacific coast. TheCbJcafo. Milwaukee and St. Paul would: 1 like to control the line because it traverses a rich agricultural sec tion and taps the Wyoming oil coal fields, insuring a profitable source of revenue to the company operating it.
