Walla Walla, Wash., July 12.
Another brutal murder was committed
in the penitentiary this afternoon, the
victim being: William Ellis, and the
murderer William Harrison, both con
victs. The men were working in the
jute mill, running looms about 40 feet
apart. About 3 o'clock Guard August
Henriod, who was occupying a cage In
the center of the mill, noticed a com
motion among the convicts near the
loom where Ellis was working, Sud
denly Harrison grasped Ellis round
the neck with his left hand, and to the
guard it appeared as though Harrison
was striking Ellis with his right hand.
The guard leveled a gun .at Harrison,
who immediately loosened his grasp on
Ellis, and, dropping down behind the
loom, crawled about 60 feet away and
hid behind a bale of sacks. Ellis then
walked over to the overseer's desk and
fell on the floor. It was then noticed
that he was wounded, and that blood
was flowing from his side in a stream.
The wounded man was hurriedly taken
to the penitentiary hospital and Or. J.
E. Bingham, the penitentiary phy
sician, was summoned, when it was
foupd that Ellis had received six knife
wounda. two in the right arm, two in
the stomach and two in the breast,
One of those in the breast pierced the
right lung, and one passed entirely
through the liver. Ellis only lived an
hour, death resulting from internal
bleeding. He was only conscious a
short time, and it was impossible to
p-et him to tell the storv of the affray.
bevond saving that Harrison killed
him with a knife. They were on bad
terms, having had a quarrel several
days ago.
S SOT IS EUROPE,
Mrs. Eliza McDonald Located In St.
Louis.
St. LOUIS, July 12. Mrs. Eliza Mc
Donald, reported to have fled from San
Francisco with $100,000 belonging to
her husband, Richard H. McDonald,
jr., now in jail in that city awaiting
trial for forgery and embezzlement in
connection with the wrecking of the
Pacific bank, was located in this city
today. She is with her sister-in-law,
Mrs. John Carlton, 2608 North Garri
son avenue.
At first she would not adtnit her
identity, but after reading the report
ot her alleged flight she acknowledged
that she was the wife of Richard H,
Mc"onald. She then said; "The
report tt at I fled with my husband's
money is untrue, I have not handled
any of his money for three months,
and then the amount was not more
than $5000. This was all that was in
trusted to me for defending my hus
band, and it was all he had.''
She related the story of her first
meeting with McDonald in 1890, and
told of their marriage in 1895. Three
months after marriage, she continued,
the trouble came on.
"Richard H. McDonald, sr., my
father-in-law, went to New York and
sent for us," she said: "When we ar
rived there he asked my husba"d to
take me and go abroad. My husband
said he . was innocent, and would go
back to San Francisco and face the
charges. Then his father begged him
to ero. and even offered to pay our ex
penses, but still my husband refused,
The result was that we went back to
San Francisco, his father remaining
In New York, where he is at present,
Then followed my husband s arrest,
and all this trouble of which I know
nothing. I am totally ignorant of my
.husband's financial dealings, and,
therefore, not in a position to talk of
them, but I know that my husband is
innocent of the cnarge against mm
and is the victim of a political conspi
racy. That is why his father wanted
him to go abroad, as he said our
enemU s in San Francisco would resort
to any means to pullus down."
. HE CUT BIN WIFE'S THROAT.
4 Curioua Story ft '! Comes from
Hew fcueit,
NEW York, July J2, Having won
back his wife at a game of cards. Dan
iel Aokerman last night murdered her,
Acherman and bis wife lived in the
hamlet af MarionUK. , near Bloom
lngdale, Passio county, N- J. He is
32 years old, she was 2(5. He was lazy
and shiftless. Six months ago Mrs.
Ackerman ran away fro:i him with
James Sutton, who is tbi oe years her
junior.
There was a bitter quarrel between
them: but Sutton kept cool and mana-
fed to pacify Ackerman, saying
nally: ,-I tell you what we'll do;
we'll play a game of poker for her."
Ackerman agreed and the woman was
indifferent. The men decided to play
"freezeout," 5-cents chips and $10
limit. "If I win $10," said Ackerman,
scowling at his wife, "it's almost
worth while taking her back." The
men dealt the cards and began to bf.t.
They played for half an hour, and
Ackerman was 60 cents ahead, Sut
ton dealt. They began to bet a dime
at a raise. The last oent of Sutton's $10
was in the pot and there was a show
down.
"Three tens," said Sutton.
"Three queens," said Aokerman,
raking in the pot.
"Now you've got four," said he, and
walked out.
Two months ago Ackerman went to
Haverstraw. He returned on the
Fourth of July. His wife was living
with her mother, but Ackerman heard
that she and Sutton were often to
gether. Mrs. Ackerman went to the
grocery last night, and her husband,
who had been lying in wait, struck
her on the head with a club. He
afterwards cut hep throat and lay
down beside her P.na out nis own
throat. Mrs. Ackenar.a died in a few
minutes.
A MONUMENT FOR FREMONT.
It la Proposed to Erect a Monument Over
Bit Grave.
New YORK July 12. The Asso
ciated Pioneers of the territorial days
of California have issued a call to the
late General -John C. Freemont's
friends for funds to erect a suitable
monument over that soldier's grave.
The commission having the matter in
charge are: Rear-admiral Richard W.
Meade, United States navy, retired,
president of the society in New York;
Francis D. Clarke. Stephen B. French,
Henry Vilson, Mark D. Wilbur, W.
A. Hedenburg, John Gault, John D.
Townsend. -
The general is buried in Rockland
cemetery, on the Hudson. The design
of the proposed monument has already
been settled upon, and is byClio Hin
ton Haniker, of this city. - The design
shows a heroic-sized figure of the gen
eral standing upon a rock. The total
height of the monument is 22 feet. On
the rock is cut a cross, in commemora
tion of the cross Fremont cut upon the
rock at independence, and the words
"Fremont, the Pathfinder."
It has been deemed best to confine
the cost of the monument to $10,000.
Tbe Portland Lost.
PORT TOWNSEND, July 12. The
steamer Chikat, from Alaska, arrived
today, reports the steamer Portland
was wrecked last week near Dungas
island. The vessel was going from
Seattle to Chi nook river, laden with
supplies. Near Dungas island, thick
weather came on, and she anchored
for the night. In that part of Alaska,
the tides have a fall of over 30 feet.
In a few hours, when the tide was at
its lowest, a sharp rock pierced the
keel, demolishing the timbers and
wholly wrecked the steamer. Every
effort was made to save the vessel,
without avail, but most of the movable
property was taken ashore. The
Portland is said to be owned by Cap
tain A. Brotherton and others of
Seattle, and to represent a loss of $8000,
Blown into Pieces.
ASTORIA, Or., July 12. W ord was
received this evening that James Fish,
a Clatskanine rancher, was killed
Wednesday last, at his home, by an
explosion of giant powder. Fish bad
a large quantity of powder on the up
per floor of bis residence, and is
thought to have been moveing it when
the explosion occurred. The house
was completely demolished on the
second floor, and the unfortunate
rancher was blown into fragments.
Orangemen Parade.
Boston, July 12. Over 1500 mem
bers of Orange lodges, of Massachu
setts participated in the annual parade
in this city today in observing the an
niversary oi tne battle or tn isoyne.
The procession was heavily guarded
by policemen, and no hostile demon
stration was made. The "Little Red
Schoolhouse" feature of the parade re
ceived only a slight recognition.
Fight With Indians,
Denver. July 12. A special to the
Times from Cheyenne, Wyo., says:
Reports reached here today of a tight
in Jackson s bole, soutn oi the Yellow
stone Park, between the settlers and a
party of Bannock Indians, who were
unlawfully killing game. One - Indian
was killed and 15 captured.
A LIBERAL WATERLOO.
f.
Other Defeats Likely to Follow That
Of
Harcourt'e.
New York, July 15. A dispatoh to
the World from London says: "The
defeat of Sir William Harcourt is very
likely to be followed by that of three
other leaders, Roseberry men. Her
bert Asqulth, Campbell-Bannerman
and John Morely hold- their seats by
small majorities, and all the present
indications are that the close seats
will be uniformly carried by the
unionists. It is the English custom
when a party leader is beaten, for
some obscure supporter, who has a
soft seat, to offer it to the defeated one,
But this is always a loss of prestige to
the leader who is repudiated by his
own constituency.
'It is like a liberal Waterloo, but
Mr. Chamberlain's faction is only a
little less disappointed than the
liberals, for if there is to be, as seems
likely, a unionist majority in the next
house of above 100 the tory section
can almost afford to ignore the liberal
unionist vote. It is certain that tho
tories will do so if they oan,
"The labor candidates at Saturday's
eleotions, having no hope of their own
success, cost the liberals three seats.
In return Keir Hardie, the labor
champion, in the house, will be de
feated by the active hostility of the
Irish voters in his constituency. In
Ireland the situation is deplorable.
Of course, there was the Redmond
split to begin with, and now Timothy
Healy has fatally divided tne Mc-
Carthyite party. The really patriotic
Irish leaders today are hopeless, bex
ton, the ablest of them, certainly will
retire in disgust, Redmond, owing to
Mealey s recent attaciis on nis own
associates, is likely to capture two
seats in Cork next Wednesday. Daly,
who was elected in Limerick tbe other
day, is in Portland prison for dyna
mite offenses, and be will oe denied a
seat.
"John Parnell is the Redmondite
candidate from Meath. At a meeting
of bis McCartbyite opponents an old
letter oonoerning him from his brother,
Charles Stewart Parnell, was read b;
a priest. It was written in 1888, am
began as follows: I cannot commend
my brother John as a candidate for
county Carow or any other Irish con
stituency, as I do not think he would
make a suitable representative.' -"It
is a Kilkeney fight all around.
It has helped put the tories in power
again for an indefinite period, and
Ireland will continue to be sacrificed
to private hatred and ambitions,"
DIPLOMATIC SCANDAL.
Spanish And American Officials
Bare
Been Accused.
New York, July 15. A special to
the World from Washington says:
"Spain's payment of the Mora claim,
as indicated by oable, will, at least, de
feat the intrigues of American and
foreign claim sharps. For years a
coterie of diplomats at Washington
and Madrid have sought to make the
sentiment of 'his historic award condi
tional on the acknowledgedmant of
counter claims by the United States.
"The story of all this plotting to
mulct tbe government brings to light
a Berious aipiomatic scandal and
shows how the Mora claim has secretly
been made to ngure as an important
incident in a scheme for securing the
transfer of Cuba to the United States.
Nathaniel Page, the well-known inter
national lawyer, who for years has
represented the Mora family, fur
nishes documents and letters which
seem to throw a flood of light on the
obstructions interposed to prevent the
fayment of the Mora award. Mr.
age specifically charges ex-Secretary
of State and Minister to Spain John
W. Foster with this work. Mr. Fos
ter has denied the charge and Mr.
Page now comes forward with papers
which he claims substantiate the
charge. Mr. Page, however, charges
that several Spanish ministers of this
country, as well as attaches of the
brencn legation, obstructed tne Mora
interests and did all they could to in
duce him to hold up the Mora claims.
"Mora is living in West Sixty-third
street, ft aw York, with hla daughter.
Seven Dead Indiana.
DECATUR, Neb., July 14. Two In
dian women and one child died last
night at Acton's pasture, where the
Omaha Indian drunk is taking place.
The women got drunk on a home
made compound of hard -nder, and
participated in the dance until com
pletely overcome. This makes the
seventh Indian who has died since the
celebration began. Captain Beck and
15 Indian police from the Winnebago
agency have arrived -on the grounds.
A man from Correctionville, la., was
arrested by the police for disorderly
conduct. Captain Beck sampled the
cider, but found it to be all right.
Tbere was no whisky in sight. The
police fqund a two-gallon jug buried.

miles from here, it developed cyclonic
fury, attended by the demolition of the
village and a number of deaths.

tracks of the New York & New Jersey
railroad was demolished. The wind
first took the roof and landed it 100
feet away. Then the wall fell. The

secure some money, and had reached
the door when the whirlwind struck
him. He was oaught and hurled 20
feet to the ground, the building falling
over and crushing him to death. One

though severed by a surgeon's knife,
causing death. When the husband,
who is a New York business man,
returned, he found his wife sitting
amid the ruins with the body of her
dead child in her arms.
Two ot the Polish laborers who
were killed took shelter in a barn,
whioh was oarried away by the storm.
Half an hour later the mangled bodies
were dragged from the ruins. The
third Pole killed met his fate in a
similar manner. Hardly a person liv
ing in tne tracn oi tne storm escaped
injury. All were cut or bruised, many

great damage at Haokensack
The news of the disaster at Cherry
Hill was brought here and all tbe
physicians in town started for the
scene. Governor Wortz has been
asked to send tents there. Tbe storm

soon after the tug McClure; but the
yacht was so far away that the men
were all drowned before the crew
could reach them. All that was found
was a cap, wbioh proved to have be

the boat sinkingso quickly was the
fact that she had a great amouut of

SALMON P. CHASE'S DAUGHTER.
The Extreme Poverty to Which She Is
Reduced.
New York, July 15. A Washing
ton special says a temporary stay,
granted by a district judge, is all that
stands between Mrs Kate Chase and a
chattel mortgage foreclosure of all her
household goods. Edgewood is already

foreclosed the mortgage has notified
Mrs. Chase to surrender possession.
Salmon P. Chase, governor, senator,
secretary of the treasury and chiif

Sprague, is on the stage with Richard
Mansfield's "Portia"; the second
daughter has taken a position as a

case she is able to raise sufficient funds
to redeem the estate, it will be again

TBE BErORK SCHOOL.
Capture of Runaways. Management
of
the Institution, Etc
Mr. F. H. Bryant, the engineer at
the reform school at Salem, arrived
on the train last tight, and left on this
afternoon local with Shontell. He, la
company with another boy by the name
of Mc Murray escaped from the reform
school on July 4th, and has wondered
over different portions of the state,
Shontell became tired and gave him
self up; but McMurray is still at large.
From Mr. Bryant we learn that he is
not a bad boy when left to his own
impulses; but in company with Mo
Murray was induced to -escape from
tbe institution. He waa a trusty at -the
school; but McMurray had not the
same reputation. " There- are now at
school from this county three boys
Patton, Nickelsen and Valentine, and
they are reported aa well behaved and
much Improved in conduct. Every
one is taught some useful employment,
and a careful watch kept over their
behavior. Shontell worked on a farm,
Patton is a waiter in the dining room,
and Valentine drives a span ot mules.
There is a shoemaker's and a car -penter's
shop in connection with the
sohool, and some boy are placed at
work in these places. . Punishment is
administered when deemed necessary
by means of a leather strap, and the
boy receives one or more blows accord
ing to the gravity of the offense.
There are no dark rooms in the build
ing, and, aside from strapping on the
back, the officers of the school adopt
no severe method of enforcing-dis
cipline. The institution answers a
wise purpose in reforming Bome boys.
and keeping others in submission.
Some are so mischievous that improve
ment seems impossible, out while at
the school they are kept under dis
cipline, and this Is beneficial for the
time. ' - ' '
BRAIN FOOD.
A Fishing Party Returns Baring Bad Re
markable' guocass.
Last Friday evening R. E. Salt
marshe, C. L. Phillips, J. H. Jackson. '
w. ii. Young, "Tody" Jackson and
Grover Young started for an outing
on tbe headwaters of Eight and Fif
teen Mile, and returned yesterday
afiernoon. With the well-known repu
tation of these gentlemen It is unnec
essary to state that the streams in the
yicinlty of their camp were thoroughly
ashed, ana tnat tney have many less
inhabitants than they had a few days
ago. It is also unnecessary to state that
tbe phosphorescent element in trout is -
excellent brain food, and tbat It stim
ulates the gray matter to greater activ
ity, whether oy tne expansion oi tne
cellular tissue or the creation of new
cells hag not been scientifically deter
mined, cut tne iact remains, ana it
is also an uncontrovertible proposition
that tbe editor of this paper mastioated
dome very toothsome food in the shape
ot fried trout for breakfast this morn
log: and, further, that these were at
tracted from their native element by
seductive books placed in the water by .
Messrs. Phillips ot Vo., tor which
thanks are tendered. Of course, it
cannot be ocularly demonstrated that
the phosphorus in these fish excited
the convolutions of the gray matter of
the brain of the writer; but if he be
lieves it the remainder ot the human
race should be content, and, It is rea
sonable to suppose they are.
- Modern Nlsauroda.
M. J. Anderson and C P. Balch are
the nimrods of Fifteen Mile, and their '
reputation is not chimerolal and rest
ing on airy foundation; but they have
won their renown by feats in hunting
which challenge comparison. They
are superior shots, and delight in
hunting game under tbe greatest diffi
culties. If tbere are birds within the
vicinity of Dufur they are certain to
be the victims of the unerring aim of
these sportsmen. They are thoroughly
equipped for sport, and possess the
best improved guns ana tne most raor
ough bred dogs. Prairie chickens are
very plentiful in the grain fields, and
Messrs. Anderson and Balch keep tbe
number of these within reasonable
limits. During the last few days the
residents of Dufur have feasted on wild --
fowl, and yesterday he remembered
the editorial fraternity with a brace of
fine chickens. To say they are palat
able would be a mild expression. They
are truly delicious, and appear to sat '
isry bunger ana create an Oliver Twist
craving lor more.
A Dangerous Business, v
Klamath Falls Express: E. M. Hor
ton and Ed. Cummings, who have been
stopping at the Cornell ranch at Tule
lake, came to town Friday bringing .
four rattlesnakes- with them. That
evening while Horton was handling
them one struck him on the hand. ' He
immediately killed it and applied the .
gall to the wound, but the arm began
to 8 well and reached enormous propor'
tlons. The wound that he applied the
gall to was all right, but too late he -discovered
the other fang had struck
him in another place, which waa the
cause of poison getting into his sys
tem. He suffered a great deal before
the swelling had subsided. They have
about thirty more rattlers at Cornill's
which they have caught for a Chinese
doctor in San Francisco.
The Raoes Over.
Wm. GUmore returned last night on
the boat from Portland, and brought
with him some of the horses that had
taken part in the Irvington Park -races.
He had Deschutes and Yalta.
Jim Crow, the horse that won two
races, has gone to Montana, where his
speed will be tried on the turf In that
state. A. M. Allen also came bome
on tbe boat, and had in charge Bill
Rice, Good Friday, and Hastings.
These horses are all well bred animals, '
and our horsemen need not be
ashamed of tbem anywhere.
