SHOT BY MILITIAMEN
Disastrous Result of an Attempted
Lyr.ehinp; in the Town of Ur
bana, Ohio.
Two Citizens Killed Outright and
Others Wouaded The Prisoner
Taken From the Jail and
Hanged.
Wasuincton, June 4. The senate
met at 11 A. M. Two speecches wore
announced for today, one by Mantle on
tbe wool schedule of the tariff bill, and
another by Butler oo hi9 resolution to
amend the constitution so as to give
congress power to impose income
taxes.
Mantle was recognized and addressed
the senate for two hours. He said that
there had been no opportunity for pre
senting the woolgrowers' side of the
contention to the other branch of con-
cress, for the reason that owing to the
brief time allowed for debate, the wool
schedule had never been reached in
that body.
He presented fully and supported
with numerous tables and statistics the
woolgrowers' side of the controversy,
and showed the enormous losses sus
tained by the woolgrowers by the de
preciation of the value of sheep and
wool during the past six years. He
declared that by reason of the enorm
ous importations in anticipation of the
enactment of a tariff law, the wool
grower would not receive much benefit
from a protective tariff for four years
to come.
He asserted that whenever a tariff
law is to be enacted, the powerful man
ufacturing interests of the country are
always on the grounds pushing their
interests, while farmers and ' wool
growers are an isolated and scattered
class from the nature of their vocation.
ana are thus lacking in effective or
ganization, hence had not received
their just share of protection
A great majority of the woolgrowers
of the country are protectionists and
republicans; most of them are believers
in tho free coinage of gold and silver;
bat the question of protection and free
coinage bavin? been divided in the
last campiagn, the woolgrowers accept
ingpledgescontained in the republican
national platform in ' fayer-of Sample
protection for wool," and belieying
protection to be the paramount issue,
cast their votes in the doubtful states
for McKinley and elected him.
The tariff biil as it passed the house
and as now amended by the senate
utterly fails to meet the expectations
of the woolgrowers, and ie regarded by
them largely as a repudiation of the
republican pledge. The woolgrowers
of the country, he continued, were in
dignant over this treatment, and he
warned the republican? they must
change the proposed rates or they
would lose the support of this numer
ous element in the ensuing campaigns.
He asserted that the McKinley law
had not afforded necossaiy protection
to woolgrowers, and quoted statistics
to prove his assertion.

BIZAL'S WIDOW iM THE FIELD.
She Commands a Rebel Company i.t the
Philippines.
Tacoma, June 4. News has been re
ceived here via Hong Kong that the
beautiful widow of Dr. Bizal is now
commanding a company of Philippine
island rebels armed with rifles, making
her headquarters at Naic, Cavite
province. Last month definite infor
mation was received that she and her
company were in Cavite awaiting the
expected activity of the Spanish troops
in tnat section.
Mrs. Rizal was a stepdaughter of a
retired Hong Kong gentleman who
went to Manilla for his health. There
his daughter met Dr. Rizal and mar
ried him against her parent's wishes.
When her husband was captured and
shot Mrs. Rizal determined to deyote
her life to the cause he had espoused,
and soon as her preparations could
be made, she took the field.

ceived telegrams May 10 stating that
the Spanish had just won three vic
tories in Cayite province, inflicting

AN AWFUL TRAGEDY.
The Militia Killed Two Men and Wounded
Six While Defending a Prisoner.
Urbana, O., June 4. Never was
there such a tragedy in this city as
that enacted at 2:30 this morning.
Two men lav dead and six seriously
wounded, with one more that may die.
The trouble that lead up to this trag-
edy- was an attempt to lynch Click
Mitchell who recently criminally as
saulted Mrs. Eliza Gaumer, widow of
tho late publisher of the Urbana Dem
ocrat. Mitchell had plead guilty and
had been sentenced to 20 years' im
prisonment, but the people of Urbana
demanded his life as a sacrific for his
crime, and a company of militia had
been called out to guard him.
When the clash between the militia
and the citizens occurred an attempt
was being made by a mob to enter the
jail from the rear. The militia were
in the hall on the second floor, and
standing at the windows. Higgins, of
West Liberty, and another man had
sledge hammers in their hands and
had broken the glass in the door lead
ing to the hall from whicr the jail is
entered. Suddenly the militia opened
fire without warning, and Higgins fell
back with the exclamation: "My God,
I am shot!" Then followed the scene
of death and destruction that brought
others down. The panic stricken pno-
pie exclaimed; "No one is safe here
but Mitchell."
After the firing of the militia on the
crowd during the early hours, Gov,
Bushnell ordered a company from
Springfield to help preserve order, and
on their arrival they were hooted at
by the citizens, and were informed
by the mayor that they -were not need
ed in the. city. The local militia com
pany had refused to take further part
In the disturbance, and while tbo com.-
pany from Springfield was marching
to the di-pot, an excited crowd burst
into the jail, took Mitchell out and
banged him to a tree in the court yard.
The lynching took place at about 7:30
this morning. The men taking part
in it made noattempt to disguise them
selves. It is not known who did the
work and the person who attempts to
find out will get himself into serious
trouble.
Not only acute lung- troubles, which
may prove fatal in a few days, but old
chronic coughs and throat troubles may
receive immediate relief and be perma
nently cured by One Minute Cough Cure.

SUGAR SCHEDULE NEXT.
Tariff Debaters Get Through the Wood
Sections ind Are Ready for Sugar.
Washington, June 5. When tbe
senate laid aside the tariff bill tonight,
it had reached the sugar schedule,
which has been the subject of so much
interest aud conflict.
During the day, many of the para
graphs of the wood schedule had been
agreed to, but that restoring white
pine lumber to the dutiable list at $2
per 1000 provided the greatest stumbl
ing block encountered since the debate
begun. It led to an extended debat.j
during which a wide divergence of
views was developed on the democratic
side of the chamber.
Bacon gave his support to the com
mittee rates , saying it was essettial to
the lumber industry of tbe South
He also snoke in favor of the revenue
tariff so adjusted as to give equal
benefits to all industries. Bacon and
Vest clashed several times on tariff
docterines. Vest expressing his regret
that a democratic chairmam would aid
in restoring to tbe dutiable list one of
the three products lumber, suH and
wool which the Wilson bill put on the
free list.
Clay also spoke at length on tbe the
tariff bill, criticising the sugar schedule
and other features of the bill.

Undignified Scenes In Illinois Legislature
TJeforo Adjournment.
Springfield, 111., June 5. The
legislature adjourned sine die at 4
o'clock this morning. Tbe last hour
was a rough-and-tumble farce. Paper
balls, pasteboard boxes, books and
even market baskets were used at a
game of pitch and toss. A couple of
facetious members broke up the tops
of their desks and with the pieces
pounded the remnants.
Votes on many bills were recorded
and nobody but the clerks knew bow
they were recorded. Bills were passed
and nobody but the speaker and clerk
knew the bills by number or title. In
the senate personal encounters were
narrowly avoided.
The congressional appropriation bill
introduced by tbe so called "machine"
over which a bitter fight htd been
waged, was abandoned in the final
hour.

A BIKE SHOP BURNED
Fred Merrill's Establishment
Wiped Out by Fire.
SUGAR COMES NEXT
Debats of the Tariff Bill Has Reached
the Sugar Schedule Which Will
be This Week.
A High Old Time in the Illinois Legisla
ture l'anaimonlum Kcigued During
the Closing Hours obody
Knew What Had Boon
Done.
Portlald, Or., June G. A very
destructive fire broke out about 5
o'clock yesterday morning on one of
the upper floors of Fred Merril's bicycle
warehouse and repair shop, on Sixth
street. The fire was discovered by a
Piukerton patrolman, who quickly
turned in an alarm, but in spite of the
quick response of the department,
Merrills establishment was doomed, and
was soon in ruins. Very little was saved
from the store, only such articles as
wore taken out by .the atachees of the
Oresonian building where the fire was
first discovered.
When it was seen that there was no
possibility of saving Merrill's store, the
department turned their attention to
saving the building to the north, the
lower floor of which is occupied by the
Cactus saloon, "Rabe" McKee, proprie
tor, and the two upper floors occupied
by Frankie Campbell as a lodging
house.
This building was flooded wirh
... .
wate", but aside from the damage
done by water there was little los3 to the
building, which was fully covered
by insurance.
Merrill figures bis loss, personal and
as a representative of manufacturers,
at from $35,000 to $40,000. That is ex
clusive of the loss he sustains by the
interruption to his business. Mr.
Merrill also had constructed the mo-it
complete bicycle repair shop in the
Northwest, upon which he had been
engrasred several years, and all this
work is wiped out in a half hour by a
destructive element.
The bulk of bis stock was on the
middle floor of bis repository, where
the fire is supposed to have' originated
from electric wires passing through it
from the Cactus building. Tbe flames
naturally ascended- lapping up every
thing within their path, and the stock
faved from tbe first floor is not 20 per
cent, of that destroyed. -
This is the second fire loss Mr,
iMerrlll ha had within five yea-s. He

An Appeal For Help.
New York, June 7. A special to
Herald from Havana says:
A strange appeal on behalf of tbe
starving and dying reconcontrados in
Matanzas. who excited pity in the
hearts of General Lee and Mr. Calhoun
has been made to the people of the
United States. The principal matter
set rp in the petition is as follows.
"First and foremost, let it be said
that in unhappy Cuba we can do uoth
ing to help our suffering countrymen
The paciflcoa that have huddled in our
city would be looked upon as traitors
for so doing, and as such we would be
summarily dealt with. We must not
feel for them; we must be blind and
deaf to their sufferings, and do noth
ing that can in any way interfere with
Weyler's policy of extermination.
"We have to witness day after day
scenes of horror which no language
can describe, and yet no voice can be
raised to protest against them. To
Spain we cannot appeal for succor,
She is well acquainted with the present
condition of affairs in Cuba, and so far
not a farthing has come to us from
her, and yet we have sent her our
money freely whenever the Spanish
people have been in want or distress,
"Upward of 10,000 of the victims of
this savage system of warfare have
been crowded into Matanzas without
providing for their most . natural
wants; and after they nave been com
polled to abandon all they had in the
world, they are to be seen in crowds
from 8 o'clock in the day until late at
night imploring charity.
"In any other country this state of
affairs would have brought on distur
bances and riot; yet our people, suffer
ing as they are; have not done any
thing that could in any way disturb
order. Can there be a better illustra'
tion of a peaceful disposition?
"Tender, loving mothers of Amer
ica, to you in particular we appeal in
our humane undertaking. Send us
the mighty aid of your motherly co-op
eration; enlist in our crusade against
crime and barbarity and the blessi ngs
of thousands will rise to heaven as
fit hymn in your praise. Think that at
your very doors there are mothers who
love as dearly as you love, and who
day after day see their little ones per
ish in our streets out of sheer hunger,
and in most cases without a piece of
ratf to cover their nakedness.
"As for us, we cannot do our work
openly. We have to beg for food for
the hungry and clothing for the naked,
concealing ourselves and our names as
if we were doing something wrong, and
we therefore suggest that if any relief
is to come it should be entrusted to tbe
American consuls for distribution, and
we woold also suggest that the send
ing of help in tbe way of provisions or
clothing has its inconveniences and it
might giye tbe officials an opportunity
to interfee and tnwart the object in
view. Very respectfully,
"Citizens of Matanzas."

Npaln Has no Pity for Hapless Cuban
Conrcntrados.
Chicago, June ".The Tribune's
special correspondence dated Havana,
Cuba, June 2, says:
Spain holds the rural population of
Cuba as prisoners of war in the prison
camps. Unlike any other nation which
claims to be civilized she does not feed
her prisoners of war.
There is no means of learning the
exact number of concentrados. An
American consul who has made a care'
fill study says it's more than 25,000.
The best opinion nlaces the number
between 190,000 and 200,000. In not
all places are they hemmed in by
ditches and barbwire fences as at camp
Florida, but they are everywhere under
military guard.

J EKE CORLEY HilOT.
Wounded In the Mountains, He Dies
While Being Taken Home.
Jeff Corley, 17-year-old son of Bert
Corley, of Mountain View, this county,
accidentally shot himself at bis sheep
camp in the mountains and was buried
Saturday in Mount View. News of the
unfortunate affair reached Pendleton
Saturday evening and full particulars
came today, being brought by John W
Ray, who is serving on the circuit
court grand jury in this city.
Jeff Corley was herding sheep in the
mountains 25 miles bevond Ukiah, in
the John Day region. In the evening,
the sheep having been put in the cor
ral, Charley went to a creek near the
cabin with a pail to get some water,
He had his pistol, which sheepherders
always carry, slung from a belt which
was about his shoulders. The pistol
was in a holster too small to hold it
securely, and, as Charley stooped to
the creek, the weapon fell and struck
the edge of the pail. It was dis
charged as it fell. The bullet entered
Charley's body above the heart, rang
ing upward, and was seen almost to
have come out at the shoulder blade.
Tbe camp tender was there at the time
and cams to young Corley 's assistance
Corley asked tbe camp tender to cut
out the bullet. The tender said he
would after awhile, and to Corley 's
anxious inquiry answered that be
thought the wound would not prove
fatal. Tbe tender worked two hours
over the young man and then went to
UKian, z. miles away, to summon Dr.
Alexander, who arrived Thursday
evening, the shooting having occured
Wednesday evening- at 10 o clock
Corley was on Thursday carried seven
miles to a wagon road and then started
toward Ukiah, dying on the wav, at
about 10 o clock in the morning,
Friday. East Oregonian.
About Postoflice Appointments.
The rule announced shortly after the
administration assumed power that
postmasters would be allowed to serve
out their full terms unless removed for
cause has been modified, and it is ex
pec ted that wholesale appointments to
Dostofflces will be made soon, savs a
Washington dispatch.
The reason assigned for the modifi
cation of the announced policy of the
administration, is that it is the desire
of the postottice department to fill as
many offices as possible before the ex
piration of tbe fiscal year (July 1), in
tier that appointments may begin
with the new quarter.
Pests Destroying- Pests.
Charles Chapman, of McKay creek,
Umatilla county, says the Pendleton
East Oregonian, says that grasshoppers
n his section are being attacked by a
worm or pest oi some sort that is
working havoc with tbem. On all
sides may be seen thousands of the
hoppers which have been killed by the
pest. Farmers are hoping the pest
will continue the good work and make
an end oi tne obstruction being
wrought on the grain crops. Mr.
Chapman says considerable damage
is being done by tbe hoppers.

HIS LOT AN EASY ONE.
But the Postered lintler Couldn't Sea It
That Way.
A butler who had been 25 years in
the same family went one morning to
bis master and said that he wanted to
leave, says the Weekly Telegram. The
master, much astonished, asked what
bis reason was.
"Do you want your wage raised,
John?"
"No, sir."
"Is it the food that you're complain
ing of?"
"No sir."
"We'll, what is It, then?"
"I'd rather not say, sir."
"Now, John," said his master, losing
his patience, "you've been a long" time
in my employ, and I insist upon your
telling me."
"Well, sir," said the butler, finally, "if
you must know, it's all along of the
missus. It's nag, nag", nag from morn
ing to night, and I can't stand it any
longer."
His master sighed and then said, sol
emnly: "John, go upstairs to your bed
room, lock the door and then go down
upon your bended knees and thank

CALVE PRAISES AMERICA.
Says She Would Prefor It to Any Coon
try Bat Iler Own.
Mme. Calve is tts loyal to the Ameri
cans when she is in Paris as they are to
her when she is In New York, says liar-
per's Weekly. She has been talking to a
Parisian reporter about L Amerique, .
and assures him that it is an enchanted
and dreamlike country, to which, if she
were not French, she would wish to be- .
long. She brags handsomely to her
countrymen about our villea mag-.-
xiiflques, with avenues as wide es the ,
Champs Elysees, bordered with struc
tures two or three times as high as tho
buildings in Paris, end brilliant with
electric lights. Even more warmly she
praises the remarkable il.-elopment of
our artistic Instincts, which encourages
artists to give full swing to their true
temperaments and to interpret the mas
ters according to their own ideals. Mel--:
ba, it seems, has told a Parisian inter-
viewer that after singing in opera in
America she hardly dares risk herself 1
on a Parisian stage. Calve says she
sympathizes with her, end, fond as she
is of the Parisian ' public, looks for
ward with trepidation to appearing be
fore it again.
