Bank Cashier shot.
San Fbancisco, March 23 Shortly
after 0 o'clock this morning, William A,
Herrick. ass'.staat cashier of tbe Market -
street branch of tbe San Francisco Sa?
lnea Union, was shot by an unknown
roan who entered the bank and banded
Herrick a document to read, and, while
his attention was thus attracted, fired
three shots from a revolver, one of which
struck the cashier in tbe bead, killing
him almost instantly. Wben the man
bid shot Herrick, 0. S. Melvin, ef Eit
Oakland, a bookkeeper in tbe branch
bank, snatched a pistel and fired at tbe
assassin, who turned aad fled, followed
by a crowd ot citizens. Several police
men joined tbe pursuers, and at Four
teentbaad Mission streets, wben tbe man
was ordeied to atop and refused, one of
tbe officers shot bim and be fell. He was
at once taken to tha receiving hospital
in a wagon. It baa been ascertained tbat
tbe document presented by tbe murderer
te Herrick was a written demand for
money and a threat to blow up tbe build
log with nitroglycerine in tbe event of
refusal. After giarwMog over ine aecu
lent. Herrick held it out to tbe man
bo did not take it. Herrick dropped
it back upon tbe counter and shook bis
bend silentlv. Tbero was not a wora
(Doken. Tbe cashier's shake of the bead
decided the fellow and be at once drew
a revolver from bis pocket, fired at Her
rick and fled. It seems marvelous thai
he did not commit another murder, or
several murders, before being caught,
for be was flourishing bis 45 caliber re
vo ver, and bad in bis pockets another
revolver and a dirk knife. Besides be
bad burslar's tools including a picklock
and a fine saw, and also s silk mask and
a fur cap, evident1? intended for toe pur

fnta at Ba4arath
Bdda Pbsth, March . 23 Tbe excite
ment over last night's riots has not yet
subsided. The students dceUrs tbat
tbey will resist any attempt to opep
places of amusement during the period
of mourning for Kossutb. Tbe police
are preparing to pre rent farther distur
bance. Tbe majority of tbe polics eym
pathize with tbe students, and will muse
only a nominal resistance. About 20
persons were injured ia last night's riot-.
tag, none seriously.- Many citizens woo
do Dot wish to incur'1 trouble from tbe
students and sympathizers, wbo last
right smashed ihe windows of bouses,
showing no mourning decoratioos in
hoBVQr.tsftbe late Louis Kossutb, and wbo
eSDetsat flight's demonstrations to be
renewed itoojgbt, are yielding to the pres
sure and p'.aotag mourning emblems on
their boajses,
: Crowds gathered fa the squares this af
ternoon . The s'udeote wade violent ad
dresses, denouncing the jfOfern ment, for
allowing Koesotb to die in ef ile. Dis
covering that tbe draped j0Hgs which tbey
placed in tbe theaters -last sight .-bad ibeep
removed, tbey declared their intention to
replace them. The authorities, in aotici
nation of trouble, bad tbe wbo' city po
lice force on duty, with draft of police j
from neighboring cities, togetber WUD :
tbe military, tbe Matter held io the bar
racks ready for an emergency. The au
thorities are directing tbeir attention to
tbe criminal classes, taking advantage af
tbe occasion to foment not, and a num
ber of the most violent of them were
placed under arrest. . In spite of all pre.
cautions It is not expected 10 get through
without serious coBOiets and consider
able bloodshed. Great mobs led by tbe
students gathered io front of tbe parlia
ment house, and insisting that parliament
was not sufficiently honoring tbe dead
patriot, tbey finally made a rush for tbe
doors. A sharp engagement with tbe po
lice followed, and numerous exchange!
were necessary before the crowd was
forced back. The bouse of deputies, - all
wearing emblems of mourning, met, and
amid the most impre9ive scene gave, ex
pression to tbe nation's gratitude lor
Kossuth's services, and as a mark of fur-.
ther respect adjourned till after tbe
funeral.

Tbe tools were placed in a cart and tbe
men were told that those who secured
either a pick or a sbovel would be given
work. A rueb followed, and in tbe scram
ble many of tbe older men were knocked
over. Unly artout awe persons secure
tools. One man said:
I have been living in Reading 63

Not Hissed as Yes.
Washington, March 24 President
Cleveland's private office at the execu
tive mansion wag a center of unusual ac
tivity today, for tbe leading silver men
of congress appeared before bim to urge
tbat be sign tbe Bland bill. At tbe time
tbrre were 15 of them ranged about tbe
president and earnestly pleading with
bim. Tbey bad come singly and in state
delegations. Representatives Williams,
Formao and McDonald of Illinois, and
Martin, Brookstiire and McNagny of
lows were among tbose present. Accora
panviog tbem was a son of tbe ex-Secre
tary ol the Treasury McCullocb. wbo
came as a western, oaoker fo urge tbe
signing of the bill. Bryan was there to
urge tbe desire of the far Northwest tbat
tbe bill be signed.
SOME INDIVIDUAL ARGUMENTS
McMillan said no Democrat could be
elected .to congress in bis state wbo
would endorse a silver veto. . He was just
back from Mississippi, where, - he said
tbe most intense feelipg existed in oppo
sition to a veto. . Bryan of Nebraska
took for bis text the pignicant acr tbat
the senter of . population in tbe United
States was BQO miles west of New Jork
He said tbe North western people, wbetber
right or wrong, feared the presideqt bad
(Biased bis eyes to tbem, nd thought, only
ot tns east. str. uieveiana inierruptea
to ssy tbat be knew no section, and. tbat
he bad the best dews U aft for the wet
laie of tbe whole people, east D.d west
alike, McDonald and Bronksbire voiced
tbe views Of IPinois sod Indiana, Then
occurred a striking scene, which will be
long remembered by tbose present. H-
Cullocb. son of tbe ex-stcretary aad aa
Indiana banker, bad uiged tbat tbe west
em banks were not afraid of an eyersupa
ply of silver. He instanced his own banc.
in which be said there wss a constant call
for silver. Tbe metal was never on band
in quantities greater than tbe demand.:
. CLEVELAND'S REPLY.
At this point Mr Cleveland framed
his reply to tbe many pleas. He stood
by the side of his large desk, one band
Testing on it, and spoke to tbe 15 or 20
ea$est men before bim. He spoke of bis
anxiety to help the congressmen and tbeir
people by su,cb action as woo Id be best
far the whole country. It wss not s auefl.
tioa ebout majorities in coogress or ofaay
otber sersooal or sell consideration. . lie
told tbem tbey bad bis sympathy, and be
earnestly wished be was at liberty to look
at tbe ma' ter and aot solely from tbeir
point of view. In fast, nothing, would
please him more than to leave the matter
to be settled by eojgress. But congress
bsd turned It over to him, and upon bim
rested tbe responsibility wbicb be could
not and would not evade. The perfar-
maace of bis full duty obliged bim to
consider, not the interest of ibis or tbat
section, but the welfare of tbe whole peo
pie and tbat duty be nbould endeavor to
discbarge to tbe best ot bis sbi ity. To
tbat end he bsd sought information troth
all sources aod beard all interests. He
intended to tike all the facts into cob-
tideratioo aod to base bis decision upfn
tbe conviction be should reach as te the
interests of tbe whole pecple He spoke
feelingly of tbe gravr.y of tbe . respoosio
billty thus imposed upon him, by the
differences in various ' localities. He
pointed out some of tbe . featores urged
against tbe bill. He , did . not ssy tbey
were la'al detects, yet toe tendency oi bis
statement was to show be could not yet
reconcile himself to tbe views the silver
men bad expressed. Mr. Clevelabd
spoke for fully 15 minutes. -

tbe producer is handled here than at any

because there are better facilities for ship

and these should have beat established

itile hope for an appropriation for The
Dalles portage this season. Our senators
and representatives asrxe on the imDortance
of this improvement in tbe navigation of the
Columbi., and are- using their utmost tn
deavors to secure an appropriation for this
project. Senator Djlph's views are tfiyen
jn the following excerpt:
"A baat railway can be built in half tbe

Granted that it is an experimental matter
tbe government oan better afford to maks
the experiment than any individual. If I
bad not bad experience with the home con

ginning of so important an improvement I
would be willinf to accept $100,000 or even
$50 000 for the eommenoemeDt of a canal
"A portage railway would not give ade

waa that the United States would operate
each a road and the ahippers pay the tolls
for freight transported.. Granting that the
government would do this, no considerable
freight would pass over this road for tbe
tolls would be so great that it would be no
relief from tbe present system of tranpor

A boat railway at a substitute for a canal is
properly a government enterprise, but ths
so-called portage railway is simply an ordi-

Should the government build one In Oregon,
it would immediately be flooded with re
quests for Ihem from every part -of the
Union. If Mr. Hermann oan get it, how
ever, I will stand up tor it, but so far as the

Fire at Oakeadale. .
The large machine shops owned by
Gilbert Hunt & U. at Oakesdale were
destroyed by re at an early hour on Sun.
qay morning, says the Walla Walla
Qtafeamqn. lb rig(n of tbe fire Is un
known, but it is, beyond dqubt tbat it was
tbe work of an incendiary. Jhe walls
and roof of the balldiqg ere of corra
gates iron and could nqt baye caught fire
bv accident, as there was no work being
done snd. the shops were closed. Tbe Are
was first discovered breaking forth from
the interior, and tbe stock of machines,
wagons, etc were all ablsze. There is
no fire department in Oakesdale - and
nothing could be done toward saving the
building or stock. The incendiary must
have taken considerable pains to get the
fire under headway, as it was nearly all a
dirt floor, with but little inflammable ma
terial In the building itself.
The total loss Is estimated at $13,000,
mostly on machinery and wagons, and
the insurance was $9000. Only a few
days since the company allowed a policy
for $3000 to lapse in order to cut down
expenses, it being deemed that the build
ing was extremely safe from fire, being
rather isolated I rom frame structures. .
Interest Revived,
Interest is being revived ia Lewiston ia
tbe old mining camp of Warrens, Mr.
Keibold arrived there from . Warrens Sun
day aod from bim oomes tbe story of a rich
discovery. ' He. has been sinking, tunnell
ing and drifting io a new location on tbs
Little Giant, witb a fores of nine men all
winter. Just before be left for Lewiston
they came upon a riob body of fins black
rhioh yielded over $1 per pound.
Twenty-five hundred pounds of tbe ore
crushed out $2700 in gold. This wonderful
strike proves a theory advanoed by Mr.
Reibold, tbat he oould by deep sinking
catch tbe main vein below the faults and
drifts. Losing the vein above by a fault he
has found it by sinking lower, aod has now
discovered the ledge in place and has pros
pects of fabulous wealth at his command.
Years ago this minieg camp created con
siderable excitement by the reported rich
discoveries of qoartavbat of late little bas
bees heard in reference to it. There is no
doubt a rich belt of ore running through
the country in the vicinity of Florence, Oro
Fino snd Warrens, and tbe mod era meth
ods of mining will bring tbeir hid dee

Ban Joae Scale,
Ths Daliju, March 24, 1894.
Editor Tiass-MocirrAOiaaa.
I notice aa article in your paper of yes
terday as to fruit and scale that I fully en
dorse so far as it goes; but, when we have
a pest such as the scale is recognized to be,
aud have also a law tbat, if properly en
forced, would in a short time put an end to
its ravages, it wonld seem but just to those
who tend their own trees in an intelligent
manner that they should have some proteo
tioa against those" who have a few trees and
partly, or wholly neglect them, and thus
make a breeding ground to renew tbe peat
in the neighborhood.
There are some wbo have their trees
sprayed in a manner which is not effective,
and they attach the blame to the wrong
cause, in tbe brst place, a tree was is ai
fected should be well pruned, taking off all
surplus aud small branches. Then apply
either the lime and sulphur ot the lye
washes, very strong. If ths latter, one and
a half gallons should be used to tbe pound
and it should be boiling hot. This will not
hurt the tree ia its dormant state; but rest
assured you will have no more scale until
you get new seed from your neighbor wbo
was less thorough in his work.
