Washington, Aug. 13 One hour be fore the lime set for the caucus, Speaker Crisp was joined in bis private office by Chairmaa Wilson and Representatives Turner, McMillin aud Montgomery, the full membership of the house Democratic conference committee, and Represeota live Breckinridge, ol Arkansas, advisory member for final consultation. Tbe cur rent ot feeling ainoog the members of the house teemed to be setting stroDgly' in favor of accepting the senate bill without further belay. At 10 o'clock Crisp and the couferrees file! out of the speaker's office and took seats in a body. At that time 153 Democrats were on the floor. Chairman Wilson took the fluor iiumedi- tely after roll call. The members crowded aiouad him, listening intently to every word. Wilson began witb a re cital of the difficulties encountered. which be said, at each step bad been pur sued wi h an ardent desire to support with honor the desires of the house to resist what was regarded as tbe unreason blea demands ot the senate. He reviewed the differences in conference on the dis puted items. He took np each proposi tion on sugar and sooke of the vast profits to tbe sugar trust which would result from many if to'em. He did n t Indulge in the sharp criticism that was expected on tbe motives of the senate confeirees. While Wilson was speaking, word was passed around tbat tbe conference in tbe speaker's room bad resulted in decisive action, and that Speaker Crisp himself would move tbe house recede and accept tbe senate lull. Wilson spoke of tbe fight made by tbe bouse couferrees for a specific" duty on sugar on the ground thai under tbe ad valorem system it would be impossible to tei, on account of tbe invoice meth ods, the xact advantage that would ac crue io ibe sugar trust. He made tbe remarkable statement tbat he bad been credibly informed, and believed the su gar trust, anticipating the enactment of the senate sugar schedule, bad purchased $112,000,000 worth of raw sugar. If this was true, he said, tbe profits accruing to the trust from this investment on account of the senate scheauie would be at least $40,000,000 "The great battle," "said Wilson, warming, "is between the Amer ican people and the sugar trust. It is a battle in which tbe trust has taken tbe people by tbe throat, and it will never tnd until we throw off its grip." There was enthusiastic applause at this. He proceeded to state ttiat tbe bouse conferreea bad been willing to concede almost everything except tbose vital items of sugar, iron and coal. The sen ate conferreea bad also seemed willing to conctde much, but were apparently dom ina'ed by the knowledge tbat it they conceded wbat the representatives were demanding, tbe bill could not pas, and the agreement would be useless. W'lUou closed at 11.05 o'clock, hav tg talked just an hour. Montgomery, McMillia aud turner corroborated his statements Crisp followed; he spoke witb much sp rit, and round slier round of applause g ree led bis remarks. He spoke of the critical condition and tbe apparent Deed to accept the senate bill, and then, if need be, introduce separate bills for tree sugar, iron and coal. H said it was "Toe senate bill or nothing." As long as there was a separate chance of securing the cuccess one tbe bouse demanded, he was lu favor of standing out, but be was sai l-tied the time bad come wbeu further insisieuce by the bouse was usele s. He offered a resolution instructing tbe bouse couferrees to recede from the disagree ment, aud Ibe wujSand means committee to bring in separate free sugar, iron and coal bills. A burst of applause greeted the reading of tbe resolution, but half a dozen irate Democrats were on their feet demanding recognition, prominent among them being Cock ran, of New York. Owing to the lateness of tbe hour, a rule was adopted limiting further speeches to five minutes. Tnen Cockran delivered a vigorous and eloquent speech against sur rendering to tbe senate. "Better no tir iff legislation tban ibe senate bill," be declared. A division on tbe Crisp resolution was deratcded, so as tojiavt a separate vote on the first part to recede from the dis agreement to tbe senate amendments aud tbe provisions or separate bills The first part was adopted by a rising vote ol 130 to ai, and the cecoud part wi bout division. Tbe caucus was adjourned . Among those who voted against tho res olulti'Q were tho Louisiana members, Warner.

Hamilton, of tbe Cascades, re lat s a thrilling experience that happened there one day last week. His nephew, a boy about 15 years eld, was at the landing watching affairs when he saw a boat tied to the bank and thought h would take a sail on the river. He did not understand boat ing very much, aud bis craft was soon drift ing down to tbe rapids, when the horror stricseu spec a tors on shore became wild witb excitement. His father was among those who were powerless to save the boy from what appeared to be his impending fate. Different directions were given him. One halloed to pull down tail; an tlier to use his oars and so on; but steadily the boat was nearing tne treach rous whirl pools, and human aid was powerless to avert the awful fate of the lad. The craft was within ten feet of the impetuous tor rent and the boy had bade father and friends good-bye, when the boat, by the force of its own velocity , was whirled aside into the eddy and he was saved. A hap pier throng of people were never seen and the father wept tears of joy. There were many old river men present, and tney say they never witnessed such a thrilling spec tacle, a-d one that filled them with such intense feelings as this one. cattle Thieves Arrested. A band of hone and oattle thieves form erly confined their operations to this county ; but they have begun deprelatiooe else where, and wa learn from the La G ande Gazette that Waliowa couuty courts are making a deterininei fiht" agiiost them. For many years their predatory operation have gone on a id as soon as one gang was broken np another was orgin'Ztd to con tinue their nefarious work. The principal business of Wallows countv is stO:k raising, and the com try is of such a character as to render it comparatively easy to carry on oattle thieving. The officers have arrested fonr suspects and hayn boun I them over to the nfxt term of circuit ecu t for appear ance before the grand j'liy. It is thought these men are members of a band of de perate and well crganiz :d cattle thieves who have carried oo extensive operations tor m iny months and a strtnious effjrt will be made to fo'liw np the lead arid capture the entire outfit. Cittle stealing in a coun try where stock interests are paramount is hi'd to be almo.t as fligrsnt as murder, and there is intense feeling against the men now under arreat. oar g ia output. Baker Democrat. The production of gold this season in Eastern Oregon is something phenomenal, and while other sections of thn ountry are distressed by a scarcity of the circulating medium here in Baker, Union and Grant counties, the treasure vaults ot mother earth are being opened up and the golden metal is being poured oat in such quanti ties as to gladden the hearts of every resi dent of this favored section. As an example of oar production of gold, last evening Mr. Ira Sproule, of the Hum boldt Mining Company near Canyon City, arr.yed in the city with 213 ounces of gild dust worth $18 to the ounce whi :h makes an amount of $1,374.

The season of the year when farmers re alize tbe result of th-(ir labors bas arrived, and the fields of this and anj lining counties are full of men busily cutting and garnering the golden grain.

Tnen as the weeks pissed by the fields were lxik d over to sea in what condition the crops were; bat harvest his arrived, and the full beads of grain mutt fall "before the aha'p aiekla. The -plump kernels will be sacked and sent to the markets of the world. Sums lota will go to feed the ttarying thousands in Cores; other cargoes will go, perhapt, to China and f npjn, to five sustenance to the soldiers of thoie empires, no batlhug for supremacy in Asia. Bat a harvest Held in Easto'o Oregon is different from what it was in the far east. There a ffing of binder would follow tha reaping machine, anl tarn the sheave out is. rapidly as possible. Here two or'm- ra header are driven throug'i tne graia field, and the heads are taken immediately to tbe threshing machine. Bat little stacking will l dons this season, and suffioient h -aders are employed to kep the thresher constant ly in operation. Tnere have been i nprove tn .-nt in harvesting the ssnis a other em ployments, and ttisie hsve been to the end if economizing labor. With the nsi of the oeader the wheat i more qnickly sacked than by the old plan of catting, binding, . stacking and threshing.
