A DESPERATE OASO
Wilcos. Ariz.. July 19. News has
just been reached that Lieutenant Mc
kay and bis scouts, in a battle yesterday
afternoon witn two members of the Kid
gang in the Sierra Ancbas mountains,
killed Wan Lau Tab, the other escaping
into the mountains. The officers and
scouts are followinu close, and it is
thought all will soon be captured. Wall
Lau Tab's head was sent to the nearest
post for indentiflcation. He is one of tbe
Indians who killed Sheriff Reynolds last
fall, and it is supposed that be was witli
tbe Kid gang who murdered Dr. Ilardie,
of Los Angeles, a snort time ago, in
Backer's canyon.
STRUCK AN ICEBERG.
Philadelphia, July 1!. The Allen
steamer Jlibernan arrived here yesterday
from Glasgow, after a trip of ten day;
during wbicb she bad a narrow escape
from being smashed to pieces on an ice
berg. The vessel ran through tbe fog at
& speed reduced to five knots, and but for
this she would surely bave been lost
The iceberg was sighted just before 8
o'clock in tbe evening at a distance ot 50
yards. Tbe engines were reversed and
tbe man at tbe wheel succeeded in slight
iv cnanging toe course ot toe wheel, so
that the berg was struck at tbe stand.
Tbe iron plates grated alongside of tbe
bugb pile, and the vessel careened until
the sails touched tbe water. There was
great excitement among the fifty passen
gcrs. une passenger, a woman, was
thrown from a bigb bunk and slightly in
jurcd. Tbe berg was fifty feet above tbe
water and very Jong. Alter tbe collision
the Hiberian remained hove to till Satur
day, all tbe while enveloped in a thick
fog. During this time the passengers suf
fered intensely from the cold, and they
made many visits to the engine room,
wbicb was tbe only warm place on the
snip.
SHE WANTS DAMAGES.
Seattle, July 19. Martha Hansen,
guardian ad libitum for ber minor
children, has brought suit for $25,000
damages against George Delfee, proprietor
of tbe I. X. L. saloon, on Front street, for
selling intoxicants to J. il. Hansen, who
committed suicide in tbe defendant's
saloon last June. The complaiut alleges
that on June 17 John Hansen bought of
the defendant intoxicants, and while ly
ing in an insane and drunken state in tbe
saloon, took poison and lay hopelessly on
the floor until tlie deferdant dragged bim
out at tbe back door and rolled bim down
stairs into an alley. He afterwards died
irom the effects ot the poison sold him bv
the dslendant and the brutal treatment
lie received. Mrs. Hansen alleges that
ner nusoana was a sign painter and dec
orator, and was tbe support of herself and
cniiaren.
CAUGHT SMOKING OPIUM,
CnicAGO, July 19. "Take all my dia
monds if you wish ; no one will ever know
tbe difference, but for heaven's sake, for
the sake of my husband and children, do
not lock me up in tbe police station,"
tearfully exclaimed an elegantly dressed
woman to Ufncers Alackecz e and Dull?

fire at spokaxe.
Spokane Falls, July 20. Fire broke
out at an early hour this morning in a two
story frame building on tbe corner of
Monroe and Sprague streets, and before
gotten under control, had caused a dam
age to the extent of $15,000. The fire
department was on tbe Eccne quickly, and
through their efficient work the flumes
were confined to the building in w hich
the fire originated. The greater part of
the losses sustained was on goods damag
ed by water.
storm and lightning.
New Orleans, July 20. A severe rain
and electric storm visited tbis city and
vicinity this evening. At Milnorburg the
lightning struck a sbed, instantly killing
Victor Marclieaud, fatally injuring Edgar
Charles, and seriously injuring Edward
Williams. At Gentile road a dairyman
was killed in the same way, and a man
was seriously injured at Spanish Fort, by
an electrical shock.

ion, bad been surprised by the officers in
a vile Chinese opium joint just before
HUSK.
Complaiut had been made to Officer
.Mackenzie ot tbe existence of the place,
some ol tne occupants of tUe buitdinir ob
jecting to tbe nauseus fumes of burning
opium, which, they said, made them sick
The two officers descended into tbe base
ment to investigate the matter, and in a
smull, dark room, elegantly ntted up. dis
covered tbe woman and her male compan
ion indulging in tbe past time of smoking
opium. Wbeu tbe woman made a tearful
plea -to be spared from tbe ignominy of
occupying a ceil in a ponce station, sbe
stripped herself of ber diamonds anl
jewelry, worth at least $2000, and begged
me policeman to neip themselves to it
She was compelled, however, to don ,ber
ornaments, and, together with companion.
Lee Sun, proprietor of tbe place, and a
quantity ot opium and pipes, was taken
to the station. Here, after giving ficti
tious name, sbe was bailed out, and, enter
ing a closed carriage, was hurriedly
driven away.
PROBABLE FATE OF THE BTTEIt AND HAR
BOR BILL.
Washington, July 20. Friends of the
river and harbor bill are beginning to
bave some fear for the future. There
have been whisperings about the capitol
tbe past week that perhaps tbe bill would
be allowed to slumber on the calendar ot
tbe senate until tbe adjournment. There
is strong opposition to it in certain circles
on the ground that tbe appropriations of
i Lis congress nave oeen very large, and
that this bill is not absolutely as necessary
as are tbe other appropriation bills which
nave oeen passed or are. awaiting passage.
It is believed in some circles that tbe
president is opposed to the passage of the
river and harbor bill. In the Republican
caucus ot last week an understanding was
bad tbat tbe bill would be considered as
one ot ibe appropriation bills and called
up some time during the tariff discussion
for passage. Senator Frye said yesterday
that be supposed the tariff discussion
would go on some time before the river
and harbor bill would be called up. In
other quarters it is said tbat if any effort
is made to call it up the senate will re
fuse to consider it. In any event, there
are grave doubts of the bill becoming a
law. .
HAliGED AT HILLSBOBO.
Hillsboro, Or., July 20. Last night
this town was suddenly thrown into a
state of excitement by the discovery of
the body of a dead man banging in an
empty room below the stage of tbe opera
house. It was in a fearful state of de
composition. Tbe body was only about
three-fourths erect, being suspended by
a rope used to elevate baggage to a dressing-room
of the stage. The man who
came to tbis mclancboy end was without
any doubt Charles Dupuis, a Frenchman,
whose whereabouts have been inquired
for in Tlis Oregonian, and regarding w bom
yesterday's issue contained a letter from
Sheriff Dennis to Chief Parrish.
Tbe man passed through this town on
the 3d of this month, and was brought
back n the 7 tb by some parties from
near Gaston, who considered bim a fit ob
ject to be taken care of, but who refused
to swear out a complaint to tbat effect.
He spent tbe afternoon and evening of th
7th walking about tbe town, iefusing to
go to any hotel or restaurant, though he
said oe tiaa money tnougn to pay bis
board.
ACCrDENTLY SHOT.
Seattle. July 20. A special dispatch
from Ballard, one of Seattle's surburbs
says; At 10:30 tbis morning Samuel Pet
erson accidently shot himself with a 38
calibre revolver. Tbe accident happened
in the yard of F. E. Pello. He was care
lessly tossing tbe revolver up and catch -
ing it as it came down. It slipped, feu
to the ground and exploded, ine outlet
struck in tbe right breast and just above
tbe nipple, taking an upward course and
probably lodging in bis back.
Samuel Peterson is a bright looking
young man, 23 years o'd. He came to
Seattle from Hartford, 111., 14 montbi
ago, and since then has beep, employ-'
ALL BUT THREE KILLED.
Tucson, Ariz., July 20. It is now defi

all save three bave been killed. Kid and
two others are at large. Detachments of
troops from all the forts are out, with
hopes of intercepting tbem. Lieutenant
Michel, with scouts, has been m pursuit
since his fight on Friday, in which one of
the renegades was killed. Three White
mountain Apache renegades rame in and
surrendered to the troops. They confirm
tbe report that all but three of the Kid's
band have been killed.
EVICTIONS AT NANAIMO.
Victoria, B. C, July 20. The first of
the evictions at Nanaimo, if any take
place, will be to morrow, but as many of
the tenants are already moving to tent
homes, which they will use temporarily,
no trouble is anticipated. The women
are, it is said, not in sympathy with the
strikers, and urge them to effect a recon
ciliation, and as they are the ones who
most suffer from the strike, their voice
should carry weight. No one contem
plates tbat there will be any hostile
demonstrations on the part of tbe strikers.
and there has not, as has been falsely re
ported, any word spoken to tbe military
or police; neither will this be required.
HORRIBLY MANGLED..
Uniontown, Wash., July 20. Two
contractors, working ou the Lewiston ex
tension of the Northern Pacific, one mile
this side, of Pullman, while blasting rock,
were horribly mangled. Their names are
Anderson and Swansen. They may re
cover, but it is very doubtful, one of them
having both eyes blown out.
, RUSSIAN INVASION.
Constantinople, July 20. Tbe En
glish consul at Erzeroum has telegraphed
to tbe British embassy of tbis city tbat
its proper course is to advise the porte to
make all haste to reinforce the garrisons
of Armenia if tbe sultan means to offer
any practical opposition to tbe Russian
invasion. Tbe consul states tbat all sorts
ot war material are ponnng in an in
cessant stream through Batoum, and the
transport service is working night and
day. It is firmly believed here that un
less 'Turkey acts quickly or European
powers take a hand in the business. Rus
sia' will secure so strong a hold ot Aruieui
that it will be next to impossible to dis
lodge her.' Tbis will mean another big
slice of desirable strategic territory added
to Russia's facilities forgetting into Pius
ia and Turkey, and England's interests
are certainly involved in some degree.'
LoNDON.July 20. The Armenian ques
tion is becoming very pressing, and
England will be forced to do something.
An exchange of views is now proceeding
oy tbe liOglisb, German, Austrian and
Italian governments. Gnat Britain is
acting in tbis instance in harmony with
the triple alliance, and their communica
tions with one another point to a united
intervertion in Armenia. It is believed
that tbis plan is calculated to foil the
Russian plans for occupation.
WAR IN SAN SALVADOR.
New York, July 21. A Herald? t spec
ial from the city of Mexico says tbe long
threatened war has broken out between
Guatemala and Salvador. According to of
ficial advices received from the confiden
tial agent of tbe provisional government
of San Salvador, Senor Geronimo Pou,
who arrived here last night from San Sal
vador, it began without the usual form
ality of a declaration of war, and for ids
country Senor Pou claims the first tict-tory.
"Before I left San Salvador." said Senor
Pou, "war was threatened with Guatema -la,
and that it has come as soon as it hat
should not be a surprise to anyone who un
derstands tbe political utuation of tbe two
republics. San Salvador has stood upon
tbe delensive. Guatemala has chosen to
nterfere in her domestic politics by try
ng to put into power a president not our
own free choice. We sent forces to the
frontier to repel any attempted invasion
of San Salvador, and it appears by my
telegrams that they were needed there.
On the 5th inst. we bad 9000 well-equipped
men along the Rio Paz, but -I believe
there are now fully 16,000 along the
frontier. I understand tbat Guatemala's
force numbers 20,000."
S 'nor Fou then laid before tbe corres
pondent telegrams from General Ezeta.
which, in substance, are as follows:
IN the Field, July 17. The Guate
malan forces under the command of Gen
eral Villavicenolo invaded Salvador and
the territory near ElCoro to-day, and were
repulsed by us.
July 18. Tbe enemy. 9000 strong.
yesterday invaded San Salvador. Our
forces bravely repulsed tbem, causing
tbeir complete rout. Many pieces of ar
tillery, large quantities of ammunition
qd hundreds of stands of arms were
captured by us. I have given orders to
advance into Goatemala.
DISGRACEFUL AFFAIR.
Missoula, July 21. Tbis morning a
brutal affair was reported from Stevens-
ville. Lyman Loring had in bis employ
at tbat place on a ranche a number of
bands, and a rap rig tbem was a young
Swede aged about 18, named Andrew
Nelson. . It is said that tbe young fellow
had been imposed upon by the other men
and last Saturday a burley Irishman
named Tom Murphy brutally beat tbe
boy until be was insensible. It is alleged
tbat Lormg instead of procuring assistance
for the- lad, ordered the men to work,
after wbicb be took tbe boy into a hot,
close haymow, leaving him there alone.
man who drove the mail wagon for
Loring, on going into the barn benrd the
boy groan and went up where t.e was.
Tbe young man was in an unconscious
condition, tbe blood was issuing from bis
eyes, ears and nose and he was covered
wan Hies. Tbe man returned to tbe vil
lage, informed the people of the circum
stances and a party went to the assistance
of the boy, wbo they fouud in a dying
condition. They took bim into town
where a comfortable room was given bim,
but the physicians say be cannot recover.
Murphy was arrested. Tbe people are
greatly excited over the inhuman treat

A Good Samaritan.
Last Sunday morning, a brakemau named
Butterfield on a freight train of the Union
Pacific, while climbing on a car fell to the
gronud by reason of a round in the ladder
giving away. This happened about 1
o'clock, and was first discovered by the
conductor who saw his lantern on the car,
but could not find bim. He telegraphed to
The Dalles, and conductors on trains were
ordered to look out for him. About 7
o'clock Mr. J. II. Larsen heard of the acci
deut, and knowing Mr. Butterfield to be a
Knight of Pythias went to the railroad office
and wanted a hand car to go up the trsok
aad find bim. He was refused by tho offi- '
cioi to whom he applied, and told that '
passing trains were on the lookout for him.
Soon other Knights, members of tbe lodge
in this city, became interested, and
made every effort to procure'a conveyance
to go to the relief of tbe brother. The ac
cident happeued about three miles west of
Celilo, and the poor fellow lay unconscious
in tbe burning sun until halt-past 10 in the
forenoon, when a ttamp passing tbat way
found bim. He had bled profusely, and
was in an unconscious condition. Carrying
him to tbe sbade of a tree the tramp went
to the river with an oyster can. brought
water, washed his wounds and gave him
some to drink. This revived him and he
became conscious. He told the tramp who
he was, and how the accident happened.
The Good Samaritan then started for Celilo
three miles east on a keen run, gave' tho
information to tbe operator, who tele
graphed to this city, and the east-bonnd
flyer picked him up and carried bim to
Celilo. The west-bound passenger brought
Butterfield to Tbe Dalles, where be was -taken
care of by the company's surgeon sud
Knights, and sent to St. Vincent's hospital
on the Dieht train. There was a acalu
wound on tbe back of bis bead, and his left
arm was fractured. It was yery fortunate
the tramp found the injured roan when he
did, as he would have laid in the burning
sun several hours longer before help came
to him. His injuries are not serious, and it -
is to be hoped tbat Mr. Butterfield will ba
able to be around in a few days.
JJatt Oregonian: Misfortune has surely
spread its sable wings o'er the fated camp of
workmen on tbe reservation. Sunday morn
ing at 1 o'clock, Fred Karsten arose to walk
to the agency after some modicine for his
sick horse, and proceeded but a few steps
when be fell, head and heels, into a cold
spring, a bath hardly pleasant at that hour.
Later in tbe day, the tent of Frank Back
lies, who cama to town after feed for his
horses, was destroyed by fire, and when jie
returned his entire outfit, clothes, bedding,
camp furniture, etc.. was a aaiokintr mass
ot ruins. It is supposed that children set
fire to the tent.
