HOLD-UP THAT PAILS.
Rock Island Is Boarded by Seven
Masked Men.
El Paso, Ang. 3. The Rock Island
passenger train. - which left 1 Paso
Saturday morning, north-bound, was
held up Saturday night at 11 o clock at
Logan, N. M., a station SO miles nortn
of Tucumcari and 99 miles north of
Santa Rosa, the division point. Seven
masked robbers boarded the train just
as it was leaving Logan, uncoupled the
baggage and express cars and went on
with the engine.
Conductor John York resisted and
was shot in the leg. The engine was
run ahead a short distance, when it was
stopped and dynamite applied. The
small safe was placed on top of the
large one and then the charge was
fired, but the only effect was to blow
the small safe through the roof of the
car, the larger one not being injured.
Ihe smallei safe was replaced and
the second charge of dynamite put be
tween the two safes with the same re
suit, except that the small safe this
time was blown through the side of the
car. The robbers then mounted their
horses and rode away in the darkness
Officers were advised this morning of
the hold-up and are on the trail of the
men who are believed to be the "Evans
gang."
The passengers were not molested
by the robbers, and many did not know
the robbery was in progress, as most
of them were asleep. Owing to the re
moteness of Logan, the details of the
hold-up were not obtained until to
night, when a south-bound Rock Island
passenger train arrived here.
The Wells Fargo officials say there
was only $7 in the safe when it left
here.
TO BRING MINERS BACK.
Western Federation Is Working for
Cripple Creek Deportees.
Denver, Aug. 3. Attorneys H. N
Hawkins and John H. Murphy, coun
sel for the Western Federation of Min
ers, are devising ways and means to
enable the deported Cupple Creek
miners to return to their homes. Pa
pers are being drawn and application
will be made to some court, possibly
the federal court, for an injunction re
straining the Citizens' alliance and
Mineowners association from interfer-
ing with any deportees who return to
tbe Cripple Cieek district.
The Western Federation officials are
also making arrangements to reopen
the nnion stores in Cripple Creek and
Victor that were raided and looted by
mobs June 6 and 7.
Sheriff Edward Bell, of Teller" coun
ty, has advised against the reopening
of tbe stores or the return of deportees,
fearing that such action will lead to
violence.
NEW YORK SUBWAY STRIKE.
Effort to Patch Up Quarrel of the
Rival Unions.
New York, Aug. 3. It is said here
today that if the members of the union
who are held responsible for the strike
in the subway do not adjust matters
promptly, a general lockout may be
ordered by the Building Trades Em
ployers' association to be followed by
an attempt to establish an open shop
At the meeting of the Central Federal
union a more conciliatory attitude was
adopted. At the close of the Becret ses
sion it was announced that a committee
had been appointed to bring about an
amalgamation of the two painters'
unions the Brotheihood of Painters
and the Amalgamated Painters' society,
whose fight, one.against the other, led
to the subway strike.
THREE DESTROYERS CRIPPLED.
Japanese flotilla Makes Safe Get
away in the Bay.
Tokio, Aug. 3. The Japanese naval
department asserts that in the attack
made by the Japanese torpedoboat flo
tilla on the Rusisan Port Arthur de-
lense squadron, July 24, wbich was
previously reported without details,
resulted in the crippling of three Rus
sian destrovers so badly as to render
them useless for any future fighting.
Ihe attack took place in East Hsiend
heng bay and the Japanese destroveis
discharged three fish-model propeller
torpedoes and then made their escape
in the fog without waiting to see if
the machines reached their marx.
Outposts are Engaged.
With the Japanese army in Man
churia, at the headquarters of General
Kuioki, July 29, via Antung and Se
oul, Aug. 1. The conditions on the
right remain practically unchanged,
although numerous engagements be
tween the outposts of the two armies are
of constant occurrence. There has been
severe fighting in the center, although
no details have as yet reached here.
The Russians are strongly entrenching
their secondary position five miles west
of Liao Yang and are expected to make
a stand there.
Russians Mutilate the Dead.
Tokio, Aug. 3. An official report re
ceived from the army in front of Port
Arthur states that during the fighting
of July 27 (details of which, by the
way, are still withheld by the Japan
ese officials), the Russians behaved
with shocking brutality toward the
Japanese dead and wounded, robbing
and murdering the latter and mutilat
ing the former. It is said that a pro
test will be made to the powers by the
Japanese. .
Philadelphia Tire Loss.
Philadelphia, Aug. 3. The group of
four hnilriiiMm nf thn ornamental Trm
Cotta works at Wissackon avenue and
Bristol streets was entirely destroyed
by fire tonight. Loss, $160,000.
FULL RETREAT
The Russian Army Is Hurry
ing to Harbin.
JAPANESE ARE VERY ACTIVE
Empty Cars Being Rushed South
Liao Yang Troops to Be Re
moved as Past as Possible.
Tokio, Aug. 3. After two days
fighting, General Kuroki has defeated
the Russian forces in two separate ac
tiona fought at Yushulikza and the
Yangse Pass.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 3. A report
from an apparently reliable source late
last night was to the effect that General
Kuropatkin's main force had been rap
idly moving north for several days.
According to this report no troops
proceeding to the front from Russia had
gone past Harbin in the past three
days. They will be detained there and
every available piece of rolling stock
will be rushed south empty for the re
moving of troops to Liao Yang and
other points to the northward, leaving
a skeleton force to contest the Japan
se advance on vital positions.
If it is true as pointed out in the
foregoing, it leaves the Russian forces
in an exceeding serious position
Lacking definite information, and if
the Russian information has not been
broken by the capture of Simoucheng
the authorities here say that if Kuro-
patkin accepts a general engagement
they believe it will occur near Anschan
shan, half way between Haicheng and
Liao Yang, in which case the Haicheng
force will fall back on the Simoucheng
force under General Mitschensko, on
the northward road to Yanzalin, whieh
is already fortified, with a view to such
a contingency.
Yanzalin would then become the
advanced position for Anschan tachan.
the natural strength of which is shown
by the fact that it was the only posi
tion the Chinese successfully defended
against the Japanese. It is possible
that if Simoucheng is evacuated it may
be in pursuance of the above plan and
it is also possible in this case that
General Stakelbeig may get away
north, but in any case his retreat with
Geneial Oku hanging to his rear must
be a difficult operation, even with the
railway to help him.
KUROPATKIN'S ARMY CRIPPLED.
Losses Have Been Heavy During
the Past Tew Days.
Tokio, Aug. 3. It is reported at tbe
war office that the result of the fight
ing which has been in progress in the
vicinity of Haicheng since last Wedne9
day will be a sweeping victory. While
a number of official communications
from the commanding officers have
been received, their contents are care
fully guarded for the present.
It is believed, however that the re
lief columns have been divided by i
successful outflanking movement on the
part of General Kuroki's army, which
turned the Russian flank, lhis move
ment is believed to have resulted in
the isolation of Lieutenant General
Stakelberg's divisions and they are now
believed to be practically surrounded
by the victorious Japanese.
General Kuropatkm is understood to
be endeavoring to withdraw the rem
nants of his scattered army toward
Mukden and Japanese officers, who
should know exactly what the condit
ions are in Manchuria, declare that
both Liao Yang and, Mukden must fall
wihin a very short time.
The Russians' losses within the past
five days have been such as- effectively
weaken General Kuropatkin's army so
that the Japanese combined fore) are
now much more than a match for the
crippled Russians opposed to them
At last accounts fierce fighting was still
in progress with everything pointing
to ultimate and complete Japanese sue
cess.
Search to Proceed.
St. Petersburg Aug. 3. The govern
ment has issued an official announce
ment of the release of the steamer Ma
lacca, which was seized in the Red sea
by the Russian volunteer fleet cruisers
It states that the liberation of tbe ves
sels was due to the declaration by the
British government that the cargo was
the property of the state, but Bays it
must not be deducted from this fact
that the impeiial government abandons
its intention of sending out isolated
cruisers as well as warships generally
to search for contraband ol war.
Give Up at Kansas City.
Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 3. Today's
developments in the packers' strike
were seriouB from the standpoint of
the strikers, as hundreds of their num
ber returned to work, many of them be
ing skilled workmen. The serious
break in the ranks of the strikers today
as caused by their growing tired of
waiting for strike benefit money prom
ised from Chicago and because they
could not afford to remain idle . for a
longer time without pay.
Arabia's Trial in Progress.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 3. The Asso
ciated Press is informed at the foreign
office that the trial of the Arabia is
now progressing at Vladivostok and
that it will have to he completed be
fore the question of her release can be
determined upon. .
WATERS OP THE ANA.
May Be Used for Irrigation in
Southern Oregon.
Washington, Aug. 2. The reclama
tion engineers have turned np another
promising irrigation project in Oregon,
this time in central Lake county, on
the north shore of Summer lake. - A
tract of about 125,000 acres has been
withdrawn from all save restricted
homestead entry, pending further in
vestigation to determine whether or
not it will be practicable to irrigate a
portion or all of the area with the
waters of the Ana river, a, small stream
which feeds Summer lake. It is
thought the Ana river is an outlet of
Silver lake, which lies a few miles
northwest. .
Tnis project will be under examina
tion the remainder of the summer, to
determine whether practicable means
can be found of applying water to the
land in such quantities and at such
cost as will justify undertaking the
project. The lands withdrawn for the
Ana river project are included in town
ship 29, ranges. 17 and 18; township
30, ranges 16, 17 and 18; and township
61, range 17, all south and east.
A new project has also been found
in Washington, known as the Priest
Rapids project. Nine townships lying
along tne Uioumbia river in Yakima
Douglas and Kittitas counties have
been withdrawn pending final deter
mination of the feasibility of remov
ing water from the Columbia river at
Priest Rapids and bringing it down
upon the Columbia valley lands lying
below the rapids,- on either bank of the
river. The lands withdrawn are
Townships 13, 14 and 15, ranve 23
and townships 13 and 14, ranges 24, 25
and 26, all north and east.
This project, while adjoining the Big
Bend project, is separate and distinct
and will be made the subject of special
study this summer. Its success de
pends largely upon the ability to get
water upon the land at reasonable cost
A considerable portion of these lands
are now under cultivation and the con
currence of farmers must be had before
this work can be undertaken.
DIFFICULTIES WITH WIRES.
The Long Circuit Through Siberia
Is Affected by Eire and Storm.
St.' Petersburg, Aug. 2. M. Durno
vo, the minister of telegraphs, who is
in temporary chaige of the department
of tne interior, will place the depart
ment of posts and telegraph in the
normal as well as virtual control of
Under Secretary Sevastianoff, under
whose administration the postal and
telegraph systems of the empire have
made great strides.
The greatest difficulties are due to
the operation of 10,000 miles of over
head wires in the Far East. Thunder
storms are of daily occurrence through-
out this vast stretcn of wires' and the
forest regions are subject in summer
time to continual fires. These facts
are sufficient to explain why the dis
patches from the front are sometimes
delayed a couple of days.
Tbe telegraph department makes
practice of holding up ordinary mes
sages at Harbin and forwarding them
by post, but in the meantime they are
blocking the Siberian wires. It must
oe noted that official dispatches in
cipher are not abreviated and have to
be repeated, and these take precedence
over all other telegrams.
REMOVING THE MINES.
Japanese Search for Deathtraps at
Niu Chwang.
Niu Chwang, Aug. 2. The Japanese
have just removed two large electric
mines from the mouth of the Liao
river, and tbey are searching for 16
other such mines known to be there
The people who left N.iu Chwang be
fore the Japanese came in are now re
turning, and confidence has been re
stored. The Japanese Specie bank will
open next week. .
General Oku has written a special
letter from Ta Tche Kiao, thanking
United States Consul General Miller
for having maintained order an J pro
tected public property here.
It is reported here that the Russian
gunboat Sivoutch has been destroyed
at a point 30 miles up the Liao river.
Major K. Yokura has been appointed
military administrator of Niu Chwang.
Martial law regulations are bei?g
framed.
Continuous and heavy firing is heard
from the direction of Hai Cheng.
Troops Will Go to Bonesteel.
Bones teel, S. D., Aug. 2. Troops
have been requested by Sheriff Taylor,
and Governor Herreid has agreed to
send them. From August 8 until Sep
tember 10, tbe filing period, this place
will be under martial law. Tbe
militia will be on hand when the til
ing begins. The guards are considered
necessary to protect $300,000 which
will be brought to town each day
Plans to meet every train have been
made. Every passenger will be topped
at the town gates and made to prove
that his business is legitimate.
Tangier Guards Doubled.
Tangier, Aug. 2. Last night all the
guards about the city were doubled and
strong mounted lorce patrolled tne
outskirts until daylight. Europeans
living in isolated places have been
warned to come into the city. The
diplomatic corps held a meeting today,
at which Mohammed-el-Torres, the
sultan's representative here, and two of
his council were present. It is believed
that the object of the conference was to
discuss present conditions.
Raiders Going Home.
Tokio, Aug. 2. The Vladivostok
squadron passed Tsngar straits, on the
way to Vladivostok, at 1 o'clock this
afternoon. ? -

PATENT FOR LIEU LAND.
Received by the State in Accordance
With Recent Act of Congress.
Salem The state land board has re
ceived a patent from the United States
(government conveying to the state 19,-
000 acres of lieu land in accordance with
the act passed by the last session of
congress. This land was selected
upon Klamath reserve base, made
available by the readjustment of the
boundaries of the reseive. The selec
tions were made in 1901, but there was
some question in the department as to
whether the state was entitled to use
school sections within the new boun
daries as base. Ihe question was set
tied in April last by the passage ol an
act of congress directing that the
state's selections be allowed, and the
issuance of the patent is tbe formal
compliance with that act. The state
sold the lieu land as soon as it was se
lected, in 1901, at $2.50 per acre, the
legal price at that time.
Grange Will Have Exhibit.
Oregon Cty Acting in conjunction
with the committee appointed for the
purpose by the state grange, the vari
ous subordinate granges of Clackamas
county are appointing committees to
arrange for the holding of district fairs
this fall. Collections will be made of
all kinds of agricultural products for a
competitive exhibition. The cream for
the respective exhibits will be arranged
in one grand exhibit for the inspection
of the national grange which will be
convened at Portland in 1905, during
the Lewis and Clark fair.
Rosedale Is After Electric Line.
Salem The citizens of Rosedale, a
farming community six miles south of
this city, met last week and took the
preliminary steps for the organization
of a local "push club," a name not
having been chosen. The object is for
the betterment of the community in
general, but its chief aim is to secure
tbe proposed extension of an electric
line from this city into tnat communi
ty, which is in the heart ct a ncn iruit
Del-t.
Smaller Loggers Lose Heavily.
Astoria The failure of the usual
freshets last winter entailed a consider
able loss to tbe smaller loggers operat
ing in this vicinity. It is estimated
that there are at the present time over
10,000,000 feet of logs above tide water
in the Lewis and Clark river. These
logs were cut last fall and winter, but
there was not sufficient (water m tne
stream to float the ji down. They are
valued at fully $70,000.
Resume Work on Umatilla Dam.
Echo A crew of government en-
gineers, neaaea Dy jamuna i.
has arrived here and will proceea to
the site of the big dam of the Umatilla
irrigation project to take up the work
which was dropped two months ago
when the engineers were taken away to
work on the Malheur county project.
Mill Will Resume Grinding.
McMinnville The large flouring
mills known as the Atlas mills, which
have been idle for the last two years,
will again resume operations. The
mills have been undergoing some re
pairs the past weeK anu win uegm
next week on a large Din oi nour ior
China.
Profitable Seed Crop.
Amity A. Sheldon, a farmer resid
ing two miles west ot town, nuiiea
eight acres of Alsyke clover wnicn
yielded him 60 bushels. This is a very
profitable crop, as it usually sens rrom
14 to 16 cents per pouna, netting bub
$67.50 an acre.
FIRE IN WHEAT FIELDS.
Grain Is Destroyed oh Two Farms
Near Adams.
Pendleton The first serious wheat
fire this summer visited the farm of
Lowell Rogers, near Adams, last week,
causing a loss of nearly $1,500. Five
hundred sacks of grain, a wagon and
40 tons of hay were destroyed. One
horse was so badly burned that it died.
The harvest crew was come distance
away when the fire started. Two little
daughters of George Rogers were sent
aftei the men, and narrowly escaped
being burned to death in the burning
giain. By hard work the crew finally
extinguished the fire.
The fiist of the week fire again vis
ited Rogers' place and before it could
be extinguished over 1,200 sacks of
wheat were destroyed and about 70
acres of standing grain burned. The
grain and stiaw being very dry. the fire
Bpread rapidly into an adjoining field
owned by Louis Odette. Odette lost 30
acres of grain before the fire could be
gotten under control. Mr. Rogers es
timates his loss at 7,000 or more bush
els. A number of farming implementa
and harvest supplies were also lost.
His loss will exceed $5,000. He had
small insurance. Mr. Odette's loss is
believed to be $1,500.
Government Will Run Hatchery.
Oregon City The Upper Clackamas
hatcheiy, located about 60 miles up
the Clackamas river from this city, has
been turned over to the government for
operation, having been conducted for a
number of years as a state enterprise.
The Clackamas hatchery is considered
bv fish culturists to be the best hatch
ery in the state, not because of its
equipment and location, which are
ideal, but because of the quality of tbe
Chinook fish that are propagated there..
The employes now at this hatchery
will be continued this season.
Balance of $1,000.
Oregon City When all expenses;
have been met, the management of the
Willamette Valley Chautauqua associa
tion will have a balance of about $1,
000 as the product of their efforts this
season. The total receipts of the 12
days' session were $6,000, and it is es
timated that the attendance exceeded
25,000. Several improvements will be
considered by the Chautauqua before
the convening of next year's session.
Among others, the grandstand will be
enlarged.
Clackamas Crops in No Danger.
Oregon City Residents of this city
who have toured the county thorough
ly, announce that there is no cause to.
be alarmed for the crops of Clackamas
county, which are in much better con
dition than they have been represented!
to be and will yield satsfactorily. Ob
servations show that the hay and grain
crops are in splendid condition gener
ally and will produce average yields.
Potat : es will need another rain to in
sure a good crop.
