This after noon about 4 o'clock Fred Marvin, secre tary of the Washington Farmers' Innur ance Company, against whom grave chaigea of irregularities in the manage ment of tbe affairs of the company were recently made, accompanied by Attorneys Graves and McKinstrey, A. C. McCoy and three other men whose names conld not be learned, entered the rooms of Sec retary of State Allen Weir at the Hotel Spokane while be was examining the books of the company, and demanded tnem, together with all papers. Secre tary Weir related to give tbem np, when be was informtd that thev had come to take tbem away, peaceably if possible, forcibly if they mast. They then gathered up tbe papers and books, carried them down stairs and hurried off with tbem in a hack, which waa in wait ing. ' As soon as possible Weir gave tbe alarm, add a search for tbe stolen prop rrty was instituted, but without avail. Tbe prosecuting attorney was asked to issue a warrant for tbe arrest of all con cerned in the robbery, bat refused Great indignation is felt at his action, and steps will be taken to secure tbe papers required without bis aid. Mr. Weir said to. night: 'I think the" newspapers should de nounce, such ' proceedings, and public sent;ment be such tbat it would deter anybody who had any claims to decency and tespectability irom taking any part in such an outrage I shall certainly up peal to tbe courts and ascertain whether a state officer can be treated ' thus with impunity. Tbe fact is, I was overpowered. Mr. Graves, the leader ot tbe mob, de manded the books. I then asked Mr. Graves on what grounds be demanded tbe delivery of the books to Marvin. He replied that it was necessary to have the books and records at the office of the com pan y for tho transaction of bn-iness. Mr. Graves then assaulted me. I de nounccd the proceedings and called Fred Marvin's attention particularly to the fact that bis course in the matter woald probably result in sending bim to the penitentiary, and that for the sake of lit' j family and triecds I had endeavored to secure an amicable settlement of the comrany'3 difficulties without recoil to criminal proceedings." : missed and Indians started after bim on horseback, but tbe current of the Colum bia being very swift they could not over take bim He waa seen passing here, going aown stream at a speed of about 10 miles an hour, the boat whirling arounr in I lie current, it it Dad been known tbat tbe Indian was blind be might have been rescued.

Dg him to continue at tbe mercy of tbe treacherous current Unless he has lodged along the shore somewhere, tbe boat has evidently drift ed over Celilo falls and tbe old Indian killed. HOTTEST DAY OF THE SEASON. To-day was tbe hottest of the season. The thermometer registered. 1 14 here and 113 at Coyote, in the shade, at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Mitchell, in speaking of that proposition, said he had been here for 20 years' fight ing for tbe improvement of tbe M.esisss ippi river and tbe Hennepin canal scheme, and now tbo two men who wern inter - es'ed in these i'mprovetrents, B ancbard, of Louisiana, and Henderson, of Illinois were doing what tbey could to prevent the boat railway being made a part of tbe bill. Senator Squire has almost given np hope of tbe Lake Union and Washington canal scheme, and savs tbat it will require some work to educate congress up to the importance of tbat project. He tbinks tbe house will insist noon eliminating bis pet measure from tbe river and harbor bill. Senator Mitchell has expressed himself as almost willing to se tbe bill defeated, ratuer than to relinquish tbe boat railway pro ject, but Oregon has so much at stake that he will probably withdraw any op position be may feel to. tbe bill becau of tbe rejection of the boat-railw-v scheme. ITEMS IN BRIEF. Contraband Chinese. Sacramento, Cal., June 25. This morning a carload . of Chinese came through in tbe Oregon express iu charge of deputy marshals. They were captured in uregon, paving oeen smuggled over the border, and were on tbetr way to San Francisco, to be ' sent to Cnina. About one mile and a half this side of Suisun, one ot tne prisoners deliberately opened the window and crawled through. He was dashed with fearful force to tbe ground. So soon as the trainmen real ized tbe suicidal act of tbe contraband Cbinaman, they bad the train stopped ana Dacaea up to where tbe man lay, He was taken aboard and brought to Sui sun, where be was placed on a train bound for Sacramento, arriving here at 11:05 A 31. He was at once conveyed to the hospital. To a. fellow ccuntrvman he first said his name was Yu Kee, and afterward Min Wah. It was plain tbat his m nd was wandering, as be turned over and over on bis cot and muttered words tbat even the; Chinese present could not understand. It is believed he s hart intercallv. He will probably be sent on to San Francisco if ho recovers. Earthquakes la Mexico.

Mayer died last evening from the wounds received.

He went to tbo hospital, and the body of bis son was given to bim. : He conveyed the remains home, where tbe dead man's mother is distracted. When the body was taken into the bouse, Mme. Mayer threw ber arms about it, aod covered tbe face, with kisses. Tbe affair is deeply regretted at tbe Ecole Polytecb nique, where Captain Mayer held a pro fessorship. He was greatly esteemed by bis fellow officers, was a splendid fencer, and bad appeared in numerous assaults at-arms, A representative of the A asso ciated Press had an intervies with De Mores today. " Ue expressed much sor row for the death of Captain Mayer, and added: "I am aware tbe authorities will issue a warrant for my arrest.

Sonthern Pacific, is no leas a victory for tha state at large, since tbe state taxes by this decision will have to be paid on a levy made by the state board of iequalisttiou's tiicures on mortgages, city, village and town oron- erty and real estate. These classifications of real property are tha only one known to the law for the purpose of assessment aud taxation. The decision will affect many counties as to property and will catch Mult nomah, Clatsop aod Clackamas for 60 per cent, raise on mortgages, which id only the counties mentioned were assessed at only 50 per cent, while the state loard of equali zation made mortgages uniform at 100 per cent, in all the counties of the state. Bat few counties have paid to the state treas urer the total amount of state taxes due so cording to the state levy which wss made upon tixures returned by the state board of equalization. l'. .

"- Astorian, June S6ta. A destructive and almost fatal accident occurred on the tug Escort No. 2, y eater day, while the tug waa dragging' for the anchor aod chain lost from the barn Ravens- wood.' Tbe grappling iron of tbe tag had brought npon some heavy body lying at the bottom of tbe bay. As the. strain tight ened, tbe rope, a 5-ioch hawser, was carried forward to the steam winch. The winch not having sufficient power to lift the an chor, or whatever had been grappled, the hand cranks were set and manned by Cbas. Fossman and Edward Frits. The S-iheh rope. Under tbe strain of the steam winch was already as rigid as an iron bar, and the additional leverage of the cranks worked by the two men proved too much tor the rope. The winch, relieved of its weight, and under a full pressure of steam, whirled the crank arms around with lightning rapid ity, striking the two men" fearful blows and felling tbem to the deck, Fossman was al most scalped; tbe iron crank arm striking him on the forehead, tearing and cutting such a wound that the scalp fell down over tbe - man's face, blinding him. Tbe other man Frits must have reseived tbe second blow, as the gash out np and down the fore head shows his head must have been bent aa though endeavoring to escape." The tug at once put into Hustler's wharf, where tbo men were assisted ashore and placed in the Hotel Northern bass. Dr. W. -D. Baker, marine surgeon, bad . been summoned and on arriving at . St. r.
