COAL PIERS BURN.
Lackawanna Loses Five Millions ia Fire
at New York.
New York. Jnne 1. Seven freight
and coal piers of the Delaware, Lacka
nnna A Western railroad in Jersey
City were destroyed today . by a fire
that started on the barge Alien
Churchill, which lay alongside pier 12,
on which a lot of barrels cf oil were
gtortd. The loes is estimated at $1,
000,000. The flames spread rapidly.
Pier 12 was 800 feet long and was soon
ablaze its entire length, and the fire
men who were trying to ngnt tne nre
. - , T
from the shore were able to accompiisn
but little.
Tim flamaa swent across to pier 11
and beyond, being finally checked at
pier 5, which is a new coal trestle,
steel-framed and iron-clad, uere tne
firemen and fireboats made a despeiate
atand and staved the advance of the
fire until the burning piers crumbled
and fell into the water.
Althnncrh there was little Wind.
sparks fell all along the water-front for
nearly a mile, endangering tne .Lacxa
wanna station and even the Hamburg-
American and Bremen line piers, where
the firemen were kept Dusy piaying
streams of water upon the blaze and
over the ships at their docks.
A number of canal boats and several
tugs were burned, the loss of small
boats being variously estimated at irom
30 to 200. The number of freight cars
is not known, but the loss on this class
of rolling stock will be heaw. The
Lackawanna road moved its passenger
coaches out to tne Meadows, ana one
train of freight cars was moved out and
saved.

nrmt of the niera burned, on the freight
stored on them and to some extent the
loss of business which must necessarily
nnsna. It also includes tne burning oi
the canal boats and barges thickly
moored between some ot tne piers.
The Lackawanna company carries its
own insurance. -
CAVALRY WILL BB SENT.
Marines Could Accomplish Little la a
Rough Country.
Washington, June 1. High officials
of the administration are considering
the expediency of making war on the
Moroccan bandits if France declines to
land troops and assume responsibility
for the bandits' punishment. These
officials have discussed . the-best method
of procedure and have reached the con
elusion that nothing but cavalry ac
customed to campaigning in a moun
tainous country would be of service.
It was at first suggested that several
hundred marines should be landed at
Tangier and mounted. They would be
Bent in pursuit of the kidnappers of Ion
M. Perdicatis and his stepson. This
was considered inadvisable, as the
marines would not be experienced in
that kind of warfare. If an expedition
is sent it will comprise trained cavalry
men from the United States.
The president and general staff think
this government should send an armed
expedition after the brigands. Secre
tary Hay and other adminjstiation
officials discourage the idea and think
France should take the necessary steps
There has been no intimation, however,
that France will do this, but Mr. Hay
feels sure that she will take action be
fore Great Britain or the United States
sends an armed force into the sultan's
country.
Death for Wire-Cutting-.
Seoul, June 1. M. Hayashi, Japan
ese minister to Corea, has notified the
foreign office that the Japanese military
authorities are constantly complaining
that telegraphic communication with
General San is frequently interrupted.
The Japanese military authorities sus
pect that the country people are cut
ting the lines at vanor.s unfrequented
places. M. Hayashi states that the
Japanese emperor has issued a procla
mation inflicting the death penalty on
all persons caught destroying telegraph
lines, and asks that the Corean govern
ment take similar action.
Japan Wants Reply Soon.
London, June 1. The Standard's
Tientsin correspondent telegraphs that
Uchida, the Japanese minister at Pe-
kin, has demanded an immediate reply
to the inquiry previously Bent to the
Wai-Wa-Pu as to whether China is
prepared to hold and administer tbe
territory the Japanese have conquered,
adding that otherwise Japan must ap
peal to other powers to undertake the
responsibility at the expense of China.
Minister Uchida has notified the Chi
nese government at Pekin that Port
Arthur will soon be captured.
Kept Long In Close Quarters.
Tangier, June 1. The statement
published in the United States, through
the medium of a news agency that M
Percradis and his companion, M. Var
ley, who are captives in the stronghold
of the Brigand Razulis, have been per
mitted to go boar hunting and are gen
erally enjoying themselves, is a delib
erate lie. Until a day or so ago they
were confined in a small room, the ceil
ing of which was so low that they could
not stand upright.
Two Divisions of Fleet.
Paris, June 1. The Echo de Paris'
St. Petersburg correspondent learns
that the Baltic fleet will leave in two
detachments. The first, consisting of
four battleships, is due to start June
24. The battleship Orle will be re
floated. The dynamos, the only part
of her machinery seriously damaged,
will be changed.
NEEDS A RAILROAD
CENTRAL OREGON IS RAPIDLY COM
ING TO THE FRONT.
State Land Board Touring That Section
Examining Irrigation Projects Mem
bers Surprised by What They Saw
Lately Only Sagebrush Now Thriving
Farms are to Be Seen Everywhere. .
Haystack, Or., June 1. "I- am as
tonished that Central Oregon has not
long ago been tapped by a railroad con
necting this section of the state with
Portland," said Governor Chamberlain
today upon his arrival here from Shan
iko, in company with Secretary of State
Dunbar and State Treasurer Moore.
These state officers, as members of the
state land board, are on their way to
the Upper Deschutes country to exam
me the irrigation projects which nave
been started under the provisions oi
the Carey arid-land act. They came
out to Shaniko, in the southern part of
Sherman county, over the Columbia
Southern, and from there took a
private conveyance and are traveling
across Crook county, learning what
they can of the country, so that they
may the more intelligently act upon
questions that will arise in the transac
tion of business relative to the irriga
tion enterprises.
Though the membeis of the board
knew something of the general charac
ter of the country and have read statis
tics showing the quantity and values of
the products of this part of the state,
they admit that they had no fair con
ception of the progress that has been
made in the development of industrial
resources and of the possibilities for
future growth. With one accord they
express the opinion that Oregon should
be looking after her commercial inter
ests in Central Oregon and not permit
California to step in and take trade
that naturally belongs to Portland
While they have not yet visited the ir
Titration projects, they have seen
enough of the newly-settled country to
convince them that this section of Ore
gon is destined to be a great producer
of wealth through its agricultural re
sources, and that if the irrigation enter
prises prove to be the success that is
now expected of them, Crook will be
one of the most important farming
counties of the state.
BANDIT TOLD TO BBWARB.
America Will Hunt Him to His Death It
Captive Is Harmed.
Washington, June 1. Raisulli, the
Moroccan bandit, was today notified by
Secretary Hay, through United States
Consul General Gummero, that if seri
ous injury comes to his American cap
tive, Ion Perdicaris, the United States
will hunt him to his death. This will
be done whether it takes weeks,
months or years. Consul General
Gummero was instructed to make this
message to Raisulli as forcible as pos
sible, and to inform him that no Euro
pean nation will be permitted to pre
vent his punishment.
The cablegram was sent in response
to the one from Mr. Gummero advising
that Raisulli would kill Perdicaris and
his stepson unless the terms of his pro
posed ransom met with prompt com
pliance. Mr. Hay has reached the con
clusion that the terms imposed cannot
and will not be accepted. If Raisulli
carries out his threat and kills his cap
tives, the sultan of Morocco will be lm
mediatetly notified that he must hunt
down and execute the bandit. Ameri
can ships will remain in the harbor of
Tangier until the matter is settled. If
necessary, American cavalrymen will
be sent there to assist in capturing the
brigands. Such an interventionwill be
a friendly one and would meet with as
sistance from the sultan.
Secretary Hay is still hopeful that
be will take up the matter and insti
tute the necessary measures to . capture
and punish the bandits. In any event,
he feels sure that Great Britain will
assist the United States, as Cromwell
Varley, kidnapped with M. Perdicaris,
is a British subject.
Two Hundred Made Homeless.
Ottawa, Kan., June 1. The Marie
des Cygenes river here is higher than
ever known, and the overflow has
caused a serious flood. Above here,
however, the stream is falling, and the
worst probably is over. Two hundred
families are homeless in the lower por
tions of Ottawa and vicinty. In North
Ottawa several business houses are
flooded, there are two feet of water in
the Santa Fe depot, and the lower
floor of the Marsh hotel is covered with
water. The Santa Fe yards are two
feet under water.
Fresh Sensation In Dreyfus Case.
Paris, June 1. A fresh sensation is
promised in the Dreyfus case. The
minister of war has caused the arrest
of an officer whose identity is kept a
profound secret and who is charged
with having expended a large amount
of money at the trial of Dreyfus at
Rennes in order to secure tbe convic
tion of the accused. The officer is in
close confinement in the fortress of
Valerian and no information regarding
the case will be made public at present,
Mined by the Japanese.
Vladivostok, June 1. It is believed
from information received here that
the Japanese have mined Peter the
Great Gulf, on which this town is situ
ated, a task of easy accomplishment be
cause of the recent heavy fogs. A
small Corean sailing vessel was blown
np yesterday. The region is quiet bo
far as . military operations are con
LOST 3,500 MEN.
Japanese Paid Dearly for kinchou Vic
tory 2.000 Russians Killed. - J
Tokio, May SI. The Japanese casu
alties at Nan Shan are now estimated
at 3,500. The number of Russian guns
captured exceed 70.
While Japan paid heavily for her
victory she scored a sweeping and val
uable victroy over the Russians, in cap
turing 57 guns, clearing the way to
Port Arthur, and inflicting losses on the
Russians, which, in the end, are ex
pected to total 2,000 men. .
It is doubtful if the Russians will
stand again north of Port Arthur.
They retired from the field beaten, and
they failed to rally at Nan Quan Ling,
where it was anticipated a second stand
would be made.
The desperate onslaughts of the Jap
anese on the heights of Nan Shan were
telling, for the Russians left 300 dead
in the trenches there. A complete
search of the field is expected to show
a greater number of dead.
Nan Quan Ling was occupied yester
day morning by a force of infantry, ar
tillery and engineers under the com
mand of General Nakamura. The
main Japanese force spent Friday night
billeted in the villages around Nan
Shan. The soldiers were greatly fa
tigued as a result of the constant fight
ing, but they entered with much spirit
upon the new operations.
A force fo Russians held San Chi Li
Pu station, which is northwest of Dal-
ny, but the Japanese drove them out.
The Russians abandoned and burned
the station and retreated in the diiec
tion of Port Arthur.
The estimates of the Russians engag
ed in the defense of Kinchou, Nan Shan
hill and the south shore of Talienwan
bay vary, but it is evident that the
Russians drew for men from the forces at
Port Arthur and offered all the resist
ance possible. It is understood here
that Lieutenant General Stoessel, com
mander of the military forces at Port
Arthur, was in personal command of
the recent operations.
MASKINQ REAL FORCE.
Russlaas Now See Object of Movements
of Japanese Troops.
St. Petersburg, May . 31. The news
contained in the following dispatch to
the emperor from General Kuropatkin,
is all that was officially given out to
night :
"On May 25 a Japanese force con
sisting of a battalion of infantry and a
squadron of cavalry advanced on the
main road to Liao Yang, but was soon
compelled to retire toward Tkhouine
nez.
"A second Japanese detachment, con
sisting of a battalion of infantry, at the
village of Dapu, in the Ai valley, fired
heavily on our Cossacks from 10 in the
morning until 4 in the afternoon, but
the Japanese infantrv failed in an at
tempt to turn the Cossacks' right flank
. .. .. A
and intercept tneir retrear."
While the dispatch is brief and bald,
it is considered extremely significant.
Th fafc that tha Japanese com
menced to advance along the main Liao
Yang road immediately they had forced
the neck of tbe Liao rung peninsula
and cut off Major General Fock from
any co-operation with the Russians in
tbe norttfshows a thorough understand
ing between the Japanese commanders.
The authorities here believe the ad
vance from Feng Wang Cheng has only
been suspended, pending the elimina
tion of Fock's force, and they expect
that the advance upon Liao Yang will
now be pushed in earnest.
It is evident that the continual shift
ing of and skirmishing by the advanced
posts- of the Japanese around Feng
Wang Cheng have been merely success
ful in masking the real force, consist
ing of the third army, which is mov
ing north from Takushan. It is ex
pected that this force will be hurled
upon Liao Yang, while the Southern
Japanese force is busy wtih Port Ar
thur. The fact that there is almost a com
plete suspension of press messages
from Russian correspondents at the
front is taken to indicate that import
ant mcveents are pending.
Russlaas Must Seek Fort.
St. Petersburg, May 31. There is
no attempt here to disguise the fact
that the successful forcing of the neck
of Kwan Tung peninsula proper puts a
practical end to resistance to the enemy
until he reaches the actual fortifications
around Port Arthur. Although there
are many strong positions in the more
than 25 miles before the perimeter of
the fortress is reached, the authorities
admit that the Russians can offer little
resistance, and must now retire within
the fortress and prepare for the final
struggle.
Tactics Surprise Russians.
Niu Chwang, May 31. A staff officer
just from Mukden says the deliberation
and precision of the enemy has surpris
ed General Kuropatkin, who at first
believed the Japanese campaign would
be one of dashing recklessness with
more theatrical display about the man
euvers than strategy. A Chinese
merchant inst arrived, who left Dalny
five days ago, says the Russians ha ye
vacated the town which had not been
occupied by the Japanese forces.
Declared State of Blockade.
Washington, May 31. Minister
Griscom cables to the state department
from Tokio under today's date that the
Japanese government declares the Liao
Tung peninsula fiom Pitsewo to Pul
ientan to be in a state of blockade.
HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
wool at man price.
Million and a Half Pounds Change Hands
at Heppner Sale.
Heppner The first wool saleaday in
Heppner as arranged by the Oregon
Woolgrowera' association resulted in
1,500,000 pounds of wool changing
hands, bringing to the growers a little
over $202,000. This is by far the larg
est sale ever made in a single day in
Heppner, and from every point of view
was very satisfactory. Previous condi
tions this year have been discouraging
to the sheepmen and the industry in
general, owing to the bad sheep mark
et, but these wool sales added so much
encouragement that there is a different
feeling, not only among the growers
but in all lines of business, for the
sheep is a prominent factor in the bus
iness affairs of Morrow county.
For almost every lot of wool offered,
the growers received more than they
expected. The average price received
was about Z cents per pound, which
is fully a cent better than received last
year, owing to a better quality of wool.
this being caused by the open winter
and favorable spring, causing slight
shrinkage and good staple. The early
grass caused sheep to take on flesh and
the fleeces were heavy, many flocks
averaging a pound more to the sheep
than last year. The advance in price
and the increased weight of the fleeces
has added thousands of dollars to the
pocketbooks of the prosperous sheep
growers.
The sales will take out about half of
the wool which will be handled in . the
Heppner market. It is estimated that
about 1,500,000 pounds yet remain in
the hands of the growers in this tern
tory. Other salesdays have been ar
ranged for June 8 and 23, to be held
here for the sale of this wool.
The sealed-bid method in which
salesdays are designated when a num
ber of growers and buyers can get to
gether, was inaugurated three years
ago. The bids of the buyers are placed
in a hat, the highest offer taking., the
clip, if the grower desires to accept it,
This method has been very successful,
there having been but very few private
sales.
BtOQBST SAWMILL ON COAST.
To Be Brected at Astoria by Hammond
and Other Interests.
Astoria Negotiations are said to be
in progress whereby the interest of A.
B. Hammond and the Seaside lumber
company in the southern and western
portion of this county are to be united
and the largest sawmill on the coast is
to be erected. The lumber company is
composed of wealthy Eastern men, who
own a large tract of spruce timber in
the Necanicum district. Mr. Ham
mond also has extensive interests in
that section, and by combining the two
sufficient timber is available to keep a
large mill in operation for many years
Unquestionably the closing ' of this
deal would mean, the extension of the
Astoria & Columoia River railroad
south to Tillamook.

organize a fair association for the pur
pose of providing a race traca and
grounds for the Eastern Oregon District
Fair, which will be held here this fall.
There was a large number of prominent

cessful in securing the location of the

sire to have the fair here again thia
fall, and the local directors have been
working for some time with that end
in view.- Douglas county at first ob
jected on the ground that they were
still in debt $2,000 on their grounds at
Roseburg, which they hoped to be able
to raise if they had the fair there.
At a meeting it was arranged that

Sheep Hurry In Early.
Pendleton Anticipation of an un
usually overcrowded condition of sum
mer range in the Blue mountains thia
summer is already sending bands of
sheep to the hills, ' although spring:
range is not yet exhausted. To a cer
tain extent the early band makes the
coup in the summer range race in the
Blue mountains, and hence it is that,
for over a week flocks have been hitting'
the trails for Grant county ficm North
ern Morrow and Western Umatilla.
