Prospectors Make a Klcn Find
in Missouri.
New Yoek. May J5. A special to
the Herald, fiom Havana, says:
La Correspondencla Militaire, in
leading article, urges an immediate
declaration of war by Spain against
the United States.
The writer professes his belief, that
when the first cannon was fired the
Southern states would aguin with
draw, and preserve neutrality anil
Mexico would invade the country, to
recover its lost territory in the. West,
and thus insure the quick dismember
ment and lasting: humiliation of. the
great republic.
Captain-General "Weyler. in extend
ing: bis proclamation of amnesty, says:
'I am determined to show as much
generosity toward those rebels who re
pent and surrender their arms and re
swear their allegiance to the govern
ment, as I have already displayed
energy and firmness in dealing with
those who have persisted in disloyalty
to the crown."
Sen or Corro, mayor of Barracoa,
where the filibuster Competitor was
captured, is in Havana, and had a long
conference with the captain-general.
Mayor Corro says the Competitor
party - disembarked in a small zinc
boat, lettered "S. T. R." on Shelter
island No. 4. It was he who discov
ered, partially concealed on the beach,
the 27 boxes of cartridges heretofore
announced as captured by the govern
ment.

DEATH XX ITS TRACK.
8lxty Persons Killed in Sherman, Texas,
by a Cyclone.
HERMAN, Tex., May 15. Just a
few minutes before 5 o'clock this after
noon, a' cyclone, not exceeding two
blocks in width, but carrying wide
spread-destruction and death .in its
wake, swept through the western half
of ihe city, traveling almost directly
north. ' The app-oa(;h' of he terrifia
whirlwind waa announced by a deep
rumbling noise, not unlike reverberat
ing thunder. A fierce and driving
rain accompanied it.
It is very conservative to estimate
that the list of fatalities will reach 60
while the injured will reach 100. At
least 50 houses are wrecked. Most of
thorn were small cottages, except in
Falrview and Washington avenue,
where the handsome residences of L.
Ely, Captain J. G. Sailer, Mrs. Pat
Mattingly and James Fallas also suc
cumbed. The ioss will reach at least
$1750,000, and but little if any of it was
covered by cyclone insurance. .
A Rich Find.
Dukango, Mexico, May 15. An
unknown Mexican miner, who located
near here 20 years ago, and li veil as a
recluse, has been found dead la his
cabin by prospectors.
In the building was found gold dust
ggregatmg $7o,000 in value. The
only paper found was an old letter ad
dressed to Frank . Lombrick, 25
West Fortienth street, Cincinnati.
The writer was a woman who signed
the name of Ollie Mareoux. The letter
was dated Wheeling, W. Va., 1874. If
no claimants appear the fortune will
go to the prospectors who found the
body. : "
Bank Robbery in Illinois.
Springfield, 111., - May 15. The
most daring' bank robbery which has
ever occured in this part of Illinois was
perpetrated at noon yesterday at Buf
falo, 13 miles east of this city, the

then took all the money in the bank,
amounting to $11,000

MORE AID JtOK CUBA.
Another Relief Expedition Organizing at
Jacksonville.
NitwYork. May 18. A special to
the World from Jacksonville, Fla.,
says:
There was a report here last night
that another Cuban filibustering
expedition is organizing, and that be
fore many days a large cargo of arms
and ammunition, with a goodly num
ber of Cuban "passengers" w'll be on
the way to Cuba. The reDort was
strengthened by another report that
the steamer Laurada was down at the
bar.
It is certain that Cubans have been
gatherfng in this city for the past few
days and have been especially active
n certain directions. The govern
ment authorities have been notified
from Washington to seize Laurada,
and should she come into port, there
is little probability that she will come
up the river, even if it is she that is re
ported to be at the mouth of the riyer.
It is stated - also that the steamer
Three Friends will soon get off with a
load of ammunition and arms. The
Spanish consul here is very active,
and is keeping the wires hot between
this city and Washington. The reve
nue cutter Boutwell is at the mouth
of the St. John's, waiting for any at
tempt of steamers to load.
A TERRIFIC GALE.
Great Niagara Fruit Belt Damaged by the
Storm.
Niagara Falls, May 18 The great
Niagara fruit belt has been severely
damaged by the terrific gale which
prevailed all day yesterday. '
The wind began early in the morn
ing to blow strong from the west and
by noon it was a howling gale, which
tore young fruit off in clusters. The
indications from the blossoms in the
orchards throughout this section,
pointed to one of the largest fruit crops
in years'. The fruit was formed splen-
l didly. THere has been no frost and
fruitgrowers were - congratulating
themselves on the future, ' when the
gale' came along and-? changed - the
aspect of affairs.
Apples, pears and plums suffered the
most. So fierce was the gale, that
whole branches were torn from the
trees. Small fruits escaped without
much damage., It is estimated that
half of the apple crop is lost and near
ly as much in pears and, plums.
Peaches suffered some, but. nothing
near to what the others did.
The Boat Railway.
Washington, May 18 The confer
rees on the river and harbor bill ex
pe it to have their first report re idy to
morrow night. Of the senate' amend
ments so far passed upon, the house
has yielded about one-half. The main
question in dispute is the additional
contracts authorized by the senate.
The senate amendments authorizing
contracts to the extent of $1,753,000
for bayou Playquemine, La., and the
house provision of $315,000 for the Cal
casieu river, Louisiana", together with
the Delaware river projects, the boat
railway on the Columbia river and the
Lakes' Union and Washington canal at
Seattle, are still in dispute.
Snow Storm la Idaho. -
Kendrick, Idaho, May 18. Miners
who arrived here from the Florence
mining camp, report having exper
ienced a terrible snowstorm, in which
they were nearly lost. They say at
least three feet of snow fell, and the
backward spring -is retaraing mining
work and keeping the roads in an
almost impassable condition, and that
freighting is only carried on at great
expense. The storm was general, at
least six inches of snow falling on Pot
latch Ridge, which rapidly disappeared
Should the weather turn warm at once
or heavy rain follow, the Clearwater
and mountain streams will be turned
irito mad torrents, and Lewiston will
experience hige water again. "
A Serious Conflagration.
Atlanta, Ga., May 18. A serious
conflagration broke out in this city at
11 o'clock last night by which the
Markham house, adjoining the Union
depot, was totally destroyed. . The loss
on the Markham house is about $300,
000, largely covered by insurance.
At 3 o'clock this morning Chief
Joyler, of the fire department, said
theie was fear that the flames would
spread. The number of buildings
burned was 56, though not fewer than
20 were bouses not worth the insur
ance. The loss is placed at $300,000;
insurance, $150,000.
The Latest Twister.
Kansas Cmr.May 18 News of the
loss of life and destruction of property
during yesterday'-a cyclone in Kansas,
is slow in coming in, owing to the
crippled condition of the telegraph
wires. Fully a half dozen towns was
struck by the twister, and the known
dead number seven. The injured num
ber fully 30, many of whom are injured
fatally.
Reserva, a village on the Missouri
Pacific, in Brown county, seems to
have felt the burn of the storm. But
five houses are left standing there.
The Storm at Falls City.
Omaha. May 18. The Falls, Neb.,
special says:
This city and surrounding country
are in mourning tonight, with dead
and injured of -many families and de
bris of the devastating element cover

Seneca, Kan., May 17 A devastat

from the southwest to northeast this
evening, at 6 o'clock. Everything in
its path was completely wrecked. The
country reports great damage to prop
erty and probable loss of life. In this
city four were killed and a number in
jured. There were many miraculous
escapes from instant death.
The streets are impassable, blocked
with debris of buildings and fallen
tree. The opera house is completely
ciemonsnea. Uieroor aun the west
side of the $50,000 courthouse was
blown down, and the roof of the high
school is gone. The west half of the
village of Bayley ville was swept away,
but none were kill there. The dam
age in this city is over $200,000.
IN THE TRACK OF THE FORMER STOKM,
CONCORDIA, Kan., May 17. Another
cyclone visited North Central Kansas
this afternoon. It is impossible to
gather details, because telegraph wires
on the Missouri Pacific and Grand Isl
and railroads are dow n. The cyclone
started in the northern part of Clay
county, seven or eight miles south of
the little town of Palmer, and passed
in a northeasterly direction through
Riley county and 'into. Marshall and
Nebama count.es. t It crossed Blue
river at the junction .of the Missouri
Pacific and Union PaciSc, and passed
near the town of Ax tell.
MANY INJURED AT FRANKFORT.
Frankfort, Kan., May 17 At 5
o'clock this evening, a terrific cyclone
swept down upon the town of Frank
fort from the SQUthwest. Everything
in the north and west ends of the town
was completely wrecked. Probably
threescore of buildings were razed to"
the ground.
Reports from Vliets and Seneca say
the cyclone was severe at these points.
The latest estimates are that fully 100
buildings have been destroyed in the
town and surrounding country.
TORE THROUGH BABETHA.
SaBETHA, Kan., May 17 A cyclone
from the southwest struck Sabetha at
7:30 o'clock this' evening, aqd tore an.

score of buildings were destroyed, and
several persons badly, injured, two of
whom will probably die.
THE OREGON IN PORT.
Irving M. Scott Made a Speech to His
Worklngmen.
San Francisco, May 16. Today
Was the greatest gala day ever seen in
the- Potrero,' - because the Oregon
steamed up to the Union iron works in
a blaze of glory, with the world's
speed record flying in bold figures at
her masthead. To thousands depen
dent on the Union iron works, the
music of her gongs was sweet and the
sound of her great whistle called the
residence from their homes. The air
was rent with patriotic cheers, flags
were flying and - thousands stood at
convenient view points to welcome
Irving M. Scott as he was drawn by
100 workmen in a carriage covered
with flags and wretched with flowers.
Then tvery bell In the neighborhood
rang, and all the whistles blew iu con
cert, that of the Oregon rising above
them all.
The carriage was decked and orna
mented until it looked like a chariot.
The workmen from the shipyard took
charge of it. Machinists and joiners,
grimy from their work, seized .th6
ropes until more than 100 were cheer
ing and pulling their employer's buggy
through the streets. They carried
shovels and hammers as emblems of
toil, and stopped in front of the shops
after a tour of several blocks.
After three cheers and a tiger for
the Oregon, for the president of the
iron works and for the nation, Mr.
Scott, greatly moved, stood up in his
buggy and made a simple speech.
"Boys," began the gray-haired ship
builder, "I cannot let this occasion
pass without calling your attention to
an event that occurred on Thursday.
I want 'to thank you for making it
possible for us to beat the worjd in
building ships. It was only a few
years ago that they said we were only
an affair on paper. That we could not
build a battle-ship on the coast. But
we got the Charleston and increased
the speed half a knot; then we got the
San Francisco and the Olympia and
now comes the Oregon, grander than
all. (Cheers.)
"Boys. I have but a few years left. I
feel old age creeping upon me. I have
given my life to this work, and when I
must say farewell to scenes long famil
iar to me, it will be with the thought
that, with fair treatment, the men of
the Union iron works will never be
be beaten."
This remarkable performance of the
ship was the one theme of conversa
tion in naval circles yesterday and
today. "

Brought to an End.
Walla Walla, Wash., May 18 A
famous caee. that has been in the
courts in this county for several years,
that of C. B. Wright vs. G. W. Huot,
was dismissed by stipulation today.
The suit was commenced by Wright to
collect $7o,000 on a note, that amount
of money bt-ing advanced Hunt when
he constructed the "Hunt" road from
Dayton to Walla Walla and Pendleton.
Hunt filed a counter claim fur S2j0,000,
for services rendered Wright by his
road. The case has been hanging in

- Marvelous Results.
a letter written by
From a letter written by Rev.. J.
Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich., we
are permitted to make this extract: "I
have no hesitation in recommending
Dr. King's New Discovery, as the -results
were almost marvelous in the
case of mv wife. While I was pastor
of the Baptist church at Rives Junc
tion she was brought down with pneu
monia succeeding la grippe. Terrible
paroxysms of coughing would last
hours with little interruption and it
seemed 'as if she could not survive
them. A friend recommended Dr.
King's New Discovery: it was quick in
its tA-ork and highly satisfactory in re
sults." Trial bottles free at Blakeley

Today County Treasurer Mlchell
publishes a call for county warrants,
and informs us that be has the cash
on band with which to liquidate about
$10,000 of Wasco county's indebtedness.
The greater portion of these $10,000
were collected prior to March 31, last,
and had this amount been turned in to
the county treasure prior to the ren
dering of the semi-annual statement
on March 31, the showing of the total
indebtedness of the county at that date
would have been about $47,000. For
some reason the taxes collected were
not turned over to the treasurer,
hence the indebtedness of the county
was reported greater than it should
have been.
