London, A up. 23. A special dis
natch from Shanghai say9 the mem'
bers of the commission which recently
left Foo Chow for Cheng Tu, to In
vestigate the recent massacre of mis
sionaries tnere, are virtually prisoners.
Commander Newell, of the United
States cruiser Detroit, has grone to
Chen? Tu to consult with J C. Hixson,
United States consul at Foo Chow, the
leading member of the commission,
about landing marines for the protec
tion of the other commissioners. -
The Report Discredited.
Washington, Au sr. 23. It is said
here "that Ku Cheng is meant wherever
"Cheng Tu" is used in the London
dispatch, as Cheng Tu is the scene of
the June riots and 1400 miles from Foo
Chow. Naval officials, though with-,
out information themselves, are in
clined to discredit the dispatch, Aot
ing Secretary McAdoo said it was ob
served that dispatches of this charac
ter came by way of London, while an
other high naval officer said there was
an evident intention on the part of
Great Britain in the whole Ku Cheng
affair to get the United Slates to pull
chestnuts rut of the fire, and he
pointed to the fact that there did not
eem to be any anxiety on the part of
England to land troops or to be unduly
hasty to force an explanation-
The navy department thought that if
Commander Nawell had gone on such
mission the government would have
been notified. It was al?o said that
the marines had scarcely ever landed
at the request of any consul, es
pecially when there Is a minister
in- the country. However, should
there be trouble of the kind indioated,
the United States has a strong force
in Asiatic waters. Seven ships are
available, some of them good cruslera,
our fleet including the Baltimore (flag
ship), Charleston, Detroit, Yorktotjon,
Machian, Movocacy and Concorg, The
last named four are not very for.

The new crusier Olumrria will leave
for the Asiatic station in a very short
time, as she is now being coaled lq
San Francisco.
Working: to Get a Jury.
San Francisco. Aug. 23. From
questions aske'd veniremen by counsel
for Theo. Durrant, it Is reasonably
certain that Durrant will be placed on
the witness stand in his own behalf.
This morning defendant's attorneys
asked every venireman two questions.
One was: ''Would the accusation
ae-ainst the defendant detract from bis
credibility as a witness?" The other
was: "if a score 01 witness snouid ies
tifv that. Durrant was far from the
scene of the crimes at the time the
crimes are alleged to have been com
mitted, would you give the same con
sideration to these witnesses in the
case."
No new jurors were secured at this
morning s session 01 . ine court.
Twentv-four veniremen were either ex
cused or challenged. The number of
sworn jurors remains at nine.
Faying Big Money for Life,
Oakland. Cal.. Ausr. 23. A peculiar
will contest which promises to reveal
the mvsterious life of Morris Goldberg,
a capitalist, who led a hermit-like life
in the hills of east Oakland, has been
abandoned. Goldberg became afflicted
with throat disease a year ago, and on
account of his "inability to swallow
anything was threatened with death
by starvation. . As his condition be
came more serious the old man's desire
to live became more . intense, and he
offered his physicians $225 for every
day they should keep him alive, a
tube was inserted in his stomach
through which nourishment was
forced, and by this means he was kept
alive 40 days, incurring a doctor' bill
in the meantime of $9000. When his
will was filed for probate, in which an
estate valued at $200,000 was disposed
of, Miss Gutte Simsen, a piece, of Phil
adelphia. Sled a protest. Miss Simsen
has at last consented to compromise
the case for,$8000..
Dueling; 1 Inhibited. .
City OF Mexico. Aug. 23. A sec
tion of the penal code relating to duel
ing provides that when any person is
wounded or killed in a duel the con
ditions of which are favorable to one
of the combatants, the challenging
party shall be punished by 10 years'
imprisonment, and the recipient of
the -challenge six years. The chal
lenger's seconds are, in such cases,
subject to the same imprisonment as
the principals, and. it is urged . here
that this law will apply in the Momero
Verastegul case now on trial if it is
proved that the latter was the chal
lenging party and the duel was unfair.
The seconds in this case expect to
escape with sentence of nine months'
imprisonment-to be commuted at a
shilling a day. " !
- Sobbed the Indian.
Lewiston, Idaho, Aug 23. Three
Indians were held up by three masked
men 30 miles south of here and robbed
of $2300. j The men had shotguns.
There is no clue. Over $200,000 was
paid to the Indians yesterday and to
day. Tha Indians' are flocking into

The Kamiah Indians who refused to
accept the drafts will be brought in by
the Indian police from a settlement
100 miles east. , .

Indignation at Shangha'.
London, Aug 23. A disratih from
Shanghai, published in the Pa'i JUaU
Gazette this afternoon, says that the
utmost dissatisfaction and indigna
tion prevails among the members of
the foreign colony at the appointment
of the formerly degraded Viceroy Liu
as he is regarded as the originator of
the Chen Tu riots, to investigate the
recent outrages and the cause thereof.
Chinese Convert Butchered.
London, Aug. 23. A special re
ceived here from Shanghai, says that
many Chinese converts were butchered
when the American mission outside
Foo Chow was attacked, and the
chapel and school were wrecked by
the infuriated mob.
The dispatch adds that the Chinese
officials are jubilant at the defeat of
efforts of the American and British
consuls to obtain anMnquiry into the
massacres. It is also said that the de
lay is giving the Chinese time to pre
pare a defense for the prisoners.

Deathly Climax to m Beiga of Seriou
Crime,
YREKA, Cal., Aug, 26, As a ghastly
climax of a reign of lawlessness in Sis
kiyou county tor many months past,
the bodies of four accused murderers
lie this mornlng'on the floor of a fire
engine house in the old mining town
of Yreka. It was evident that Judge
Lvnch ana his lurors naa Deen at worn
during the night, and their verdict
was "death by hanging" to lour miser
able wretches in the county jail.
The vlctimB are: - Lawrence John
son, who, on July 28, stabbed his wife 1
co death in the town of Etna; William 1
Null, who shot Henry Hayter, in the
back, near Callahans, April 21; Louis
Moreno and Garland Semler, who was :
a - 1 1 1 .a -1 .0 1
supposeu w nave ttuien. uourgo oeara
and Casper Maiererhans at Baily Hill,
August a. At about 9 o'clock a strag-
o-len nnv and thrm naucrhfc & ollmnsa nf
dark objects hanging around the sub-1
urbs of the town, but nothing was '
thought of it. Dark objects thickened
until along towara mianignt tney as
sumed the shape of silent and stern
men, either on horseback or afoot At
midnight a prearranged pjari or- signal
drew a small army of some 250 men in
the vicinity of the court house square,
while sentinels were placed through
out the town to ward off the danger of
discovery by officers, The fire bells
were tied up and the night watchmen
were sent to other parts of the town on
sham errands, and stagglera were de
tained. At 1 o'clock, the midnight avengers
of jxistlce prepared to carry-out their
plans. An old rail was taken from the
depot and stretched between two trees
in the courthouse park, and then they
began a descent upon the jail. A de
mand was made upon Deputy Sheriff
Radford for the keys, -but he did not
yield. Henry Bratlaucht, who was
sleeping in the jail, heard a commotion
and opened the door to see what the
trouble was, and he was at once seized
by the mobr The doors were thn
forced open and Johnson, NulL Semler
and Moreno were marched out of the
courtyard. The condemned men were
stolid and took tbeir fate without a
murmer, with the exception of young
Seinler, who begged piteously. for
mercy. His age is 19. It is said that
the scene was a heartrenderlng one,
asyoung Semler broke forth in an
agonized appeal, and cried out: "Tell
my dear old mother I am innocent of
the crime."
Sheriff Hobbs had given strict orders
that in case any attempt at lynching
was .made to ring the fire bells and
rouse the citizens, but the mob an
ticipated this and laid their plans well.
Every person about , the streets in the
vicinity of the jail was stopped. S. F,
Miles and Sam Hoop were going to
the house of the latter's mother, and
were held at the scene of the hanging.
Nearly every section of the county was
represented in the mob. In fact, ever
since Null's cold-blooded murder of
Henry Hayter, a lynching was freely
talked of ht the' western end of the
county, and when. Johnson ' killed hia
wife the avenging sentiment kept on
fermenting. After the Bailey Hill
murder the feeling reached a danger
ous stage. During the lynching some
one awoke Sheriff Hobbs, who hurried
down town, and : as he was going
through the courthouse a Winchester
was stuck in his face and he was com
pelled to stand where he was. The
whole affair was carefully arranged
and well- executed, and not over 20
minutes elapsed - from the time the
keys were surrendered until the mob
rode swiftly out of town.
WHAT THE PAPEKS SAT.
Comment of the English Press Upon the
Waller Case.
London, Aug. 26. The Daily Newt
in an editorial on the Waller case,
says:
"The French are In a bad way in
Madagascar, and, in addition, by their
ridiculously severe sentence of Waller,
they have involved themselves in a
grave international question. There
is a certain irony in the . mischance
which has embroiled them with a
power so absolutely indifferent to the
Madagascar question. They must have
gone out of their way to pick a quarrel
with an American consul. - It is tbeir

for them, not by statesmen, but by the

offer reparation for a mistake." ;
The Post says: "The grossly dis
courteous behavior of French "officials
at Tamataye to American officers has
been apologized for, but the Waller

persecution the recentjhistory of civ

a story comes from Luckiamute, dis
tant about six miles from here. - The
wife of James Tetherow, a well-to-do
farmer, who has been under the care i

this morning before the rest of the
family. -Taking her 6-year-old son
from his bed, she wrapped him in a
quilt and carried him down to the
Luckiamute river, distant about a
quarter of a mile, and drowned him.
Returning to the house, she told her
husband she was sick, and asked him
to go for the doctor. He told her she
was no worse than usual, and that she
must wait. The wife then left the
house and went toward the river again.
This time she was followed, and. in an
attempt to drown herself, was rescued.
On the return to the house Rhe kept
speaking about the baby. When the
house was reached the baby was first
missed.. Then she told bow she had -taken
it down to the "nice bathing'
pool, and, although be clung to my ;
neck and begged me not to put him in.
I held him under the water." Mrs. 1
Tetherow is now in a stupor, and does '
not know what, she has done. It is
thought she is insane.

at Diamond postoffice, but the capture
of an old squaw dispelled their fears,
as it was learned that the Indians
were on their annual hunting tour.

EXTENT OF THE 8CARE.
No Confirmation of Killing of the Ban
nock Indiana,
Bakes Cmr, Or., Aug. 28. A re
port from Burns, Harney county, gives
the following account of - the Indian
scare in Diamond and Happy valleys:
Last Friday night the settlers of those
valleys became badly alarmed by rea
son of the supposed presence of Indians
in the vicinity, immediately south on
the Stein mountain side. It seems
that during the day "Rye" Smith, a
cattle rancher, had been riding on the
range, and seeing unmistakable signs
of Indians, suspected that they were a
band of hostile Bannocks, and spread
such an alarm as to cause uneasiness
and put the wholfe country on the
alert. About midnight the' people
were frightened at seeing signal fires,
several up McCoy creek and numerous
others on adjacent mountain sides,
clearly pointing to Indians clrse at
hand. This caused a general stam
pede of the settlers, who left their
homes and collected at Teaward's and
Clark's ranches in Diamond valley.
Runners and scouting parties went out
during the night, and no more satis-1
factory information was obtained other
than a Piute squaw, who claimed to be
lost, was captured. The gathering
broke up Sunday, the people returning
to their homes.
Durrant' Trial Resumed.
San Francisco. Aug. 28.-The trial
cf Theodore Durrant was re mimed this
morning, and Superior Judge Murphy
said his health was so improved that
he hoped he would be able to sit
through the entire trial without further
delays
- The search for three more acceptable
jurors was again begun. Out of all the
veniremen examined none was secured.
Only 150 veniremen are left, and a
special venire will probably be made
tomorrow, unless three jurors are se
cured before then, which is very un
likely. The prosecution remains con
fident that the boasted alibi kept in
reserve by the defense is based prin
cipally on Durrani's own statement.
Wyoming Indian Trouble.
Washington, Aug. 26. It hat been
definltelv deolded by the Indian bu-
: reau that no attention is to be paid to
j the game laws of Wyoming, where the
I laws come into ' conflict with the
treaty of the United States with the
I Bannocks and Shoshone Indians. The
attorney-general, after considering the
' matter, has informed the secretary of
i the interior and the commissioner of
Indian affairs the rights of Indians to
hunt on unoccupied lands, in his opin
ion, are unquestionable, and the state
of Wyoming has no power to limit or
abridge this- right.
A Serious Situation.
MONTREAL, Aug. 26. Several bun
dred excursionists aboard the steamer
Cvltivateur bad a narrow escape from a
serious accident by fire last evening on
Lake Francis, two miles from shore.
An oil stove in the lunohroom was
overturned, and in an instant the room
was enveloped in flames. The prompt
action of a few passengers and deck
hands saved the boat from serious
damage and probable destruction, and
a combination of bravery and lucky
circumstances averted a panic, which
would have surely resulted seriously.
Among the passengers were nearly
200 Knights Templar and their guests
from Chicago and other parts of
Illinois. .. .- . .

CROP-WEATHER. REPORT.
In Eatern Oregon For the Week Ending
Augost 16. 1 80S,
Weather A few light sprinkles of
rain fell on the 20th.and 21st. The
night of the 20th a heavy rain occurred
at Baker City, when 0.16 of an inch
fell. The temperature during the day
was cooler than during the week pre
ceding, while, the night temperature '
was about the same. ' The -maximum 1
ranged from 70 to 90 degrees, and the I
minimum from 46 to 64 degrees. The
atmosphere was not bo-eraoky during j
the past few days as it had been. .
Crops For progress in general
farm work the weather conditions
have been perfect.- There has not
oeen any ram, except in some south- '
eastern sections, and root crops are to
far advanced that rain would not be of
benefit. Owing to the condition of
the grain crops continued fair weather
is much desired. In Wasco and Sher
man counties much of. the grain it in
the shock, while in sections to the
east heading and threshing is progress
ing together. Heading is being com- '
pleted in all sections; and the sound of
the thresher everywhere is evidence
of the effort being exerted by the
farmer to save his grain as toon aa
possible and have it marketed before
the commencement of the fall rains .
and avoid a recurrence of the damage
by unseasonable weather, which oc
curred in 1893, and which is fresh in
the mind of the public The berry of
grain is not as plump as could be de
sired, and; in many instances, it must
be said that the grain presents a shriv
eled appearance, which oondltion is
directly attributed to the constant and
prolonged drouth. In the Walla Walla
valley the grain will be of good qual
ity; there the average amount of pre
cipitation was approached nearer than
in sections of Eastern Oregon. There
will also be a good quality of grain
from Wasco and Sherman counties.
though much shriveled grain will be
shipped from those section. While in
Wasco and Sherman counties the aver
age precipitation was not reached,
more rain fell than in Umatilla, Gil
liam and Morrow counties. Harvest
ing continues with good progress south
and east of the Blue mountains, where
in all sections crops have suffered from -
the drouth. The harvest of alfalfa
continues. Owing to the fear that the
Hay crop will not be sufficient to meet
the demands, farmers and stockralsert
are disposing of tbeir cattle and are
doing so without making a sacrifice.
since the prices offered are very good.
Grass is thin on the range, so that hay
has to be fed to cattle just the same as
in winter. Fruit shipments continue
large, and the complaints of dry
weather causing fruit to drop from the
trees are fewer. -Bartlett pears and
late peaches are ripening and are be
ing snipped. Plums are being picked
and dried in large quantities. A rain
ooourred in portions of Union, Baker,
Klamath and Harney counties on the
21st, which failed to do any damage or
much good. . The potato crop, with
but lew exceptions, bas done well in
the absence of precipitation, though
in many sections there will not be
enough for borne consumption. South
and east of the-- Blue- mountains the
stockgrowera look ' forward to early
rains te Improve the grass on the
range, wlthaut" whicb-the difficulty of
taking care of-the stock during the
winter will be greatly increased.
