A telegram was re ceived here last evening Htating that a cyclone struck the town of llartland and demolished twenty houses and did great damage to crops. Sixteen cars were blown from the Atchison, Topeka & San ta l's tracks, and telegraph wires were prostrated for two miles west of town. The extent of the damage is not yet learned.

The principal busi ness block of Phoenix was destroyed by fire this morning. Loss, $100,000; in sured for about two-thirds. Indications point to incendiarism. Wilbur V. Ntory'n Win. Chicago, Aug. 6. The apellate court to-day, on an appeal from the circuit court, ordered that the will made by Wilbur F. Story in 1881 be admitted to probate. The will bequeaths to the widow the entire estate, including the Times newspaer. The Oleomargarine; 1hw. Washington, Aug. 6. Senator Miller suysthe notion that the oleomargarine bill was emasculated in the senate, or ma terially changed in any way, is untrue. While farmers had fixed upon a 6 per cent, tax, and while he worked to secure it, Btill the rate of tax was not an import ant feature of the bill. The evil sought to be cured was the practice of putting on the market, under the guise of butter, a variety of fraudulent imitation. The ma chinery devised to prevent this, Senator Miller says, is retained in all its vigor in tlio hill as it became a law. One inci dental but very important result of the passage of the" act, he says, will be the aid it will furnish the authorities to carry out their own laws on the subject. Here tofore, however stringent the state law may have been, it has Inien extremely difficult, often impossible, to execute it, by reason of the fact that imitations of butter made in neighboring states could come across the border unchallenged, and there was no way, except by chemical analysis, both expensivo and slow, to de tect fraud. The Niirplu Ucnolutlon. New Yukk, Aug. 7. The World's Washington sjieeial says: The president has evidently repented of his action in not signing the surplus resolution. After consultation with his cabinet associates Thursday it was decided that bonds shall be called for a time in accordance with the resolution, as if it had become a law. At first calls to equal the amount will be mude each month, until the administra tion is satisfied the experiment of reduc ing the surplus by such monthly pay ments of the public debt can be safely done. It is said in behalf ofe presi dent that he Aid not sign the resolution because he did not want lo be hound bv its limitations. From a high oflicial source it was learned the president in tends at present to have three calls made of flo.OUO.OOO each during as many months, and after that period to continue or suspend them, as he may think the commercial situation demands. Two More Idiot." ItCKKAi.o, Aug. 3. Hazelett and Potts, two coopers, and brother workmen" of Graham, who went through the Niagara whirlpool rapids a few weeks ago, per formed the same perilous journey in a Parrel shaped tiout tlnsalternoon. fully lo,Uliu people lined the Datiks and bridg es of the river. The start was made from the "Jlaid of the Mist," landing on the Canadian side. Twice the craft turned a complete sumersault but each time righted again. As soon as the boat passed the rapids Potts oiienod the man hole, and, standing up, coolly lighted a cigar, a moment later I lazelett showed himself and waved a flag. The craft was taken in tow at Uuecnstown, Canada, just one hour after starting, both men were in excellent condition, and said they were ready to make the trip again FrwU DonhiNH' .Suucettrtor. Washington, Aug. 0. -Mr. Matthews, a colored democrat, whose nomination to succeed Fred Douglass as recorder of deeds for this district was rejected by the senate, and who to day Was appointed to the ollice, sent a letter to Douglass about turning over the office. Douglas replied that lie was ready. The ProHlrtnuL. Washington, Aug. 0. The president is now engoged in consideration of mat ters which he wishes to dispose of before he loaves the city on his summer vaca tion. The principal question occupying his attention at present is in regard to tilling vacancies existing in the civil ser vice, many of which are due to a failure of the senate to net upon nominations submitted. THE T'TTINO CAKK., All AmtatiMe Adjustment FrobHhl-Opin- ion t Mwxlvo, Washington, Aug. 10. It was stated at the war and navy departments to-day that, while the fighting branches of the government are in their customary con dition of readiness for action, offensive or defensive, the present difficulties with Mexico are as yet the exclusive concern of the diplomatic branch, and no move ment of troops or vessels has been or dered with a view of possible warfare. At ttie state department it is said there is nothing new which it would be proper to make public at present, but there is no reason to doubt an amicable adjustment of the Cutting affair. It is unofficially learned that correspondence now in pro gress is expected to bring about definite results of some kind within a few days, and that of the direct objects sought to be accomplished by this government is first the release of Cutting. OI'INION AT MEXICO. Citv of Mexico (via Galveston), Aug. 10. News of the sentence of Cutting was received here without surprise, but it is not generally believed he will serve out his term. Leading newspapers are dis cussing it in its legal aspect, and without excitement. The daily organ of the legal fraternity of the capital has a long article on the case, citing manv ot her similar cases and a long array of local opinions, coining to the conclusion that Mexico stands on sound legal ground. The Biglo Dire Nueve, Bupporter of the administra tion, takes the same view, and urges both governments to adhere to the spirit of the treaty of Gaudalupe Hidalgo, which, in its twenty-first article, provides for a careful and amicable adjustment of all questions of ditlerence in a spirit of good neighborship. Will Kesign. St. Paul, Aug. 10. A Livingston, Mont., sjiecial says: As congress made no appropriation to pay the salaries of the superintendent of the Yellowstone uai k and his assistants, Superintendent Wier says he will immediately resign. The Hop Market. New Yokk, Aug. 10. Inqniry among hop dealers to-day elicits the fact that the market is dull and Btagnant. The full prices quoted some time ago, are now difficult to obtain. Very few, 1i any orders were in from the brewers. Local dealers do not appear as buyers, and of ferings are moderate, with only fair and medium qualities shown, for which full quoted prices are asked. For the moment the situation is Buch that every thing in the way of round lots could be placed only at concessions, while any de mand would be apt to stiffen the market materially. Quotations are as follows: F'or New York state, crop of 1886, prime to choice, cash, 28( 30 cents ; medium grades, 23(() cents ; low grades, 1520 cents. Crop of 1884, fair to prime, 1822 cents. Pacific coast crop of 1885, com mon to choice, 2027.!$ cents. Arthnr in KeaAouuble Health. New York, Aug. 10. A gentleman of this city, who passed several hours with ex-Prceident Arthur, at New London, says: "lu view of the stories about his appearance and emaciated condition, I was most happily surprised to see the general looking so well, lie weighs 175 pounds. There is a good healthy appear ance to ins br in ; none ot the nabbiness which has been reported. He has cer tainly been gaining. His conversation was animated, and gave no indication that he was a sick man. During our con versation Gen. Arthur was standing around most of the time, and no one who had not heard of his illness would have thought of hun as a sick man." DIDST WANT HIM TO DIE. "And you say you would die for me ieorge?" "Die for you ! Yes, a thousand deaths.' "You are a noble man. Georue." "My darling, do you not know me vet?" "Well, darling, I do not wish you to die tor me, but 1 will tell you what you can do tor me, to show your attection." "What is it my darling? Shall I pluck the stars from the cerulean dome ? Shall 1 suy to the sea, ha! ha! cease to flow, for my love wills it? Shall 1 tell yon bright and inconstant moon (hut. is glint ing the hilltops with her light that she must not siiiiie on tier lace loo roughly ha!" "No, George, no," she smilingly said, "I do not wish you to attempt any such iiniwssibilities. All I ask of you is this " " Yes, my darling." "All I ask of you is this don't call again."

"Ah, but I thought the family might be sojourning at the seashore." "Oh, you did? Well, I belong to the family, and at present we are sojourning on the fourth floor back in the next street.

About 200 of the last two delega tions will leave on the 9tb inst. Id Favor ofNleeker. Tacoma, Aug. 4. The Pierce county republican convention was held here to day to elect twenty-two delegates to the territorial republican convention, to be held in this city September 8. Two tickets were in the field. The issue was whether the delegates to lie elected should favor or oppose the nomination of Ezra Meeker as republican candidate lor delegate to congress. The Meeker ticket was elected by a vote of 58 to 46, the vote being after wards made unanimous. Big Fire at la Hrande. La Grande, Aug. 5. The Gazette ex tra contains the following account of a conflagration that swept through the town at New La Grande this morning : At 12 :50 Thursday morning fire was dis covered at the rear of Jay Brooks' gener al merchandise store on the south side of Adams avenue, in the miin bus iness part of the town. As there was no protection of any kind against fire it was seen from the first that there was no hope of saving any of the buildings. and everybody endeavored to save all t he goods possible. All of the buildings be ing of wood and close together, there was impossibility of checking the flames, and every building on the block was entirely consumed. Fire soon leaped across the street, starting on James Clay burn's sa-' loon, and every building on the block was consumed, irom rord's corner the fire reached Staver & Walker's mammoth warehouse, and also the Golden Rule ho tel, extending up as far as the brewery, wnere it was stopped, fortunately it did not cross the slough that runs through that block, and by almost superhuman efforts Bummer, Blum & Co.'s store was saved. It was almost a -miracle that Block Bros.' store was saved, also that of II. B. Kemp, Had Block's store caught the whole easter portion of town would have burned, and the loss would have been much greater than it was. The fire undoubtedly was the work of an incendiary, for when first discoveied it was only a small blaze on the outside of Mr. Brooks's store, and as the yard had just been thoroughly cleaned there was no chance for sparks or anything else to catch, even if there had been any carelessness. The total loss will reach nearly, if not quite $100,000. THE KANJ ARMY. Election of Officers, and Adjournment The W. K. C. Election. San Francisco, Aug. 6. At the third day's session of the national encampme.it to-day the committee on resolutions sub mitted a report denouncing polygamy, and asking that congress be asked to pass such laws as will eradicate the evil from the country. The feature of the afternoon session was a discussion over the service pension bill. The department of Massachusetts ottered a resolution favoring the passage. by eongress, of the Lovering bill, which provides for a pension of $8 a month to every surviving soldier and sailor of the war, whether disabled or not. The com mittee on resolutions, to which the matter was referred, reported adversely. len- nett, of Indiana, submitted a minority report favoring the measure. A vote was first taken on the latter, and jt was de feated by 327 to 8ii. (Several efforts were made during the day to bring up consideration of the next encampment place, and r?t. Louis was finally selected by a vote of 213, to 171 lor iNasimiie. The maiority report against the $8 pen sion measure was adopted. 1 hiring the proceedings Gen. Sherman read an address. The election of officers was next in or der. For commander-in-chief, Tanner of INew York, tairebild of Wisconsin, Burst of Illinois, Hea of Minnesota, and Reyn olds of New York, were nominated ; the whole number of votes cast, 442; neces sary to a choice, 222.

The rush for tickets to Portland has been so great the last three days that it is impossible to get into the steamship company s ottice on Montgomery street, An extra steamer may have to be put on for Portland and t.be Sound. THE ALLEGED MEXICAN OUTRAGE. Cutting Goe to PrlHon One Year, and Fined $600 Note of the Case. El Paso, Ang. 7. Cutting was sen-i tenced this afternoon, to one year's im prisonment at hard labor and $000 fine. If he is unable to pay the fine there will be 100 more days' imprisonment at hard labor. The judge gives Medina, the pros ecutor, leave to enter civil suit against Cutting for damages, after the sentence 1 expires. In reference to the recommend ation of the public prosecutor that Con sul Brigbam should be complained of to the United States, and his removal re quested, the judge says he will refer that question to the supreme court of Chihua hua. It is thought Cutting will be hur ried off to Chihuahua before morning. There is some alarm in El Pase about an attempt by the Mexicans to seize the town, but it is ungrounded. HA YARD TALKS. Washington, Aug. 7. Secretary Bay ard, when asked if he believed President Diaz was likely to pardon Cutting, said : "I do not know, but should not be sur prised if it were true. That does not en ter into the question, however. It makes no difference whether he is pardoned or not. The whole point of the affair is that the United States has courts for trial of its citizens, and we cannot tolerate such things as trial on foreign coil by, foreign courts of American citizens, for offenses or alleged offenses committed in the Uni ted States. We might as well not have any government, if we are to suffer any thing of the kind. It does not enter into the case at the present stage to inquire whether he has committed a crime. The whole point is that this country is entire ly able to deal with its own citizens." A STARTLING 8TATEMENT. New York, Aug. 8. Sun's London special : The imbroglio between the Unit ed States and Mexico, over the imprison " ment by the Mexican authorities of Mr. Cutting, possesses a peculiarly strong in terest for a largo number of Englishmen, w ho are speculating in land in Northern Mexico. A London syndicate recently purchased enormous tracts of Mexican land lying along the American border, at prices varying from 5 to 10 cents per acre. Mexican agents m London declare that the representatives of these English spec ulators are fomenting war between Amer ica and Mexico for the sole purpose of forwarding their own interests. They know that the result of annexation by the United States of any of the northern districts of Mexico would immeasurably enhance the value of their holdings, and tney are pulling their wires accordingly. Besides Cutting there are other tools. conscious and unconscious, who are being used with good eftect in disturbing the hitherto peaceful relations of the two great republics. Chapter of Accident. Special to the Statesman. Albany, Aug. 9. On Sunday afternoon a 12-year-old son of Mrs. Reynolds, a widow lady, living at Lebanon, was bath ing with a number of other boys, near the head of the Santiam canal, that ex tends from Lebanon to Albany. Young Reynolds could not swim, and, getting beyond his depth, was drowned before assistance could reach him. ' The body was recovered about fifteen or twentv minutes after the drowning occurred. The mother and mends are neart- stricken. Along with the above sad news, comes the report of a serious and perhaiis fatal accident that occurred at lbanon junc tion. A son of Edward Kubler, aged 12 years, was playing with a number of oth er boys, on a flat car, of the narrow gauge railroad, at lebarion junction, Sun day evening. The boys had set the fiat car in motion, and young Kubler was rid ing on the front end. A sudden jar threw the boy off the car to the track, and the car parsed over the full length of one leg, the hip, and the body. The physician who was summoned found no bones broken, but serious internal inju ries, which he thought might prove fatal. THE MEXICAN TROUBLE. Hostile Movements n the Mexican Shle---ltayai-d .Speaks. Denver, Col., Aug. 9. El l'aso spec i al to the associated press: The Cutting af fair is practically unchanged. There were rumors all day of his having been quietly spirited away to Chihuahua, but they were untrue. This evening he is still in jail. This afternoon he was called before the court once more, and informed he hail been granted an appeal to the supreme court of Chihuahua, and that the lawyer who had been officially assigned to his defense hail forwarded the necessary pa pers in the case. This proceeding may keep him in l'aso del Norte for some days, although he himself is under the impression that he will at any moment perhaps be carried off. He is, besides, afraid he may be assassinated as soon as he leaves Paso del Norte, and that the Mexicans will give as an excuse that he tried to escape. This evemng Cutting sent the following dispatch to Gov. Ireland : "As a citizen of the state of Texas, I ask ef you the protection that iny friends assure me you can and will extend me." This dispatch was sent against the urgent advice of Consul Brigham, and it is the first time Cutting has failed to follow implicitly the consul's suggestions. There is only a small company of in fantry at Fort Bliss. The citizens of El Paso have to-day formed three volunteer companies to protect the place and guard it against surprise from the other side. Paso del Norte is full of Mexican soldiers and more are coming. There is a rumor that 300 Mexican cavalry are stationed at Saragossa, thirteen miles below El Paso, and opposite the Texas town of Ysleta. The commander at Fort Bliss has sent down to investigate. A TALK WITH BAYARD. B.vLTi.MORR, Aug. 6. Secretary Bayard speaking to a correspondent last night of the Cutting case, saw no reason why sat isfactory adjustment of the difficulty should not be reached. He had been as sured that such was the desire of the Mexican government by the Mexican minister, who said some days ago that his government would act promDtlv in the matter. Secretary Bayard said, im pressively, that he considered the prin ciple involved in the Cutting affair one of the gravest importance, and one as to which the whole country, without refer ence to party, should be a unit. The per sonal merits or demerits ot (Jutting him self had nothing to do with the matter; it made no difference whether he be an angel of darkness or an angel of light, but it did make the greatest possible dif ference to the American people whether the contention raised by the state de partment in his case should be main tained or not. Mexico claims the right to try an American citizen for an offense committed in the United States, and Cutting actually had been convicted and sentenced for publishing a libel in Texas. Mr. Bayard thinks this raises the gravest possible questions, and if Mexico's claim were once conceded no American travel ing in Mexico would be safe. "My countrymen," he said, with evi dent feeling, "will not be deceived by partisan misrepresentation. They will recognize the gravity of the question in volved, and will never consent that one of their fellow citizens shall be tried by a foreign power for an offense committed in this country. If Cutting had stabbed his Mexican rival in Texas instead of merely attacking his reputation, does any one pretend that Mexico could have tried him for murder? Certainly not." Hank Vanghan, the Bad Man, Shot. Pendleton, Aug. 10. Hank Vaughan was shot by W. H, Folliwell, at Center ville, last night at 7 o'clock, in Donica's store. Vaughan was making a few pur chases, when Folliwell entered and began tiring. One ball took effect, entering near the right uipnle, passing through the right arm and raging downward. Four other shots were fired without any effect. Folliwell ran out after the shoot ing, but Vaughan overtook him and man aged to secure a second pistol that Folli well had on his person. Folliwell wa3 brought to town and placed in jail last night, and will have a preliminary exam ination tmorrow. He says the reason he did the shooting was that Vaughan and his gang made him dance in a saloon at Centerville at the muzzle ot" a pistol some weeks ago. Vaughan lies at his house near Centerville in a dangerous condition. He was not armed during the shooting. Killed 1) a Deputy bheriff. Spokane Falls, W. T., Aug. 10. A telegram from Murray, Idaho, received here this afternoon states that Taylor Tilley, a well-known sporting man who keeps a dancehouse in Murray, was shot and killed last night by a deputy sheriff. No particulars have been received. FOIIEIGN. Revord of News from Oyer the Atlantic. It lots at Belfnat. Belfast, Aug. 0. During the rioting which occurred here from Saturday eve ning to an early hour this morning elev en persons were killed and 130 seriously wounded, lhe majority of the injured persons have shot wounds.

William wanted manure from the Fourth avenue car stables for his Staten island farm, and asked his father what he would charge for ten loads. 'VVhat'll you give7" asked the com modore. "It's worth $4 to me," said the farmer. "Good enough, I'll let you have it for that," said the railroad man, having a decided impression that the price was at least twice as much as the stuff was worth. Next day he found his rustic son witli a scow just loaded for home. "How many loads have you got on that scow, Billy?" asked the commodore in excellent humor. "How many?" repeated the son, feigning surprise ; "one, of course." "One !" why there is at least thirty," the old gentleman exclaimed, eyeing it curiously. "No, father, I never put but one load on a scow one scow load. Cast off tt lines, Pat!"
