4t & y t iCfii Vol. xix. Astoria, Oregon, Saturday Morning, July 14, 1883 No. 90V OREGON AND WASHINGTON " WHEAT. "Every shipper, miller and ship broker has his pencil out figuring the probable surplus of Oregon and Washington. The former .place it at from 180,000 to 220,000 tons; the latter go higher, claiming a surplus of 250,000. tons. Mil lers pencil more from amusement than otherwise, being more con cerned about the yield at points from which their milling wheat is drawn. A month ago you could place the surplus at 300,000 tons and not be accused of wild gues sing. Now it is conceded on all sides that the yield will be reduced one-fifth to one third by absence of rain. The most conservative and experienced Oregon opera tors call it one-third or 200,000 ' tons. . This is- conceded on pres ent appearance of crops in the val ley. Should these turn out better, as interior merchants this week say they have reason to hope for, a difference of 10,000 to 20,000 tons may result. Harvest in the val ley, without a rain, will begin by August, with a rain, later, -when a better understanding may be ar rived at. Placing the entire prob able surplus at 220,000 tons wc need a registered tonnage of 140, GG6. "We have in port available for -wheat 1G,19G; loading for this port, 5,045; on the way to arrive this year, 52,893, or a total of 74, 134 tons register, which leaves a shortlige at this -writing of 75,532 tons. It must be remembered that this shortage is given on a probable surplus of 220,000 tons. Should the surplus be 200,000 tons, as exporters figure it. the shortage will be 57,532 tons, not a very great shortage when it is known that we have seven months to secure it in after all tonnage in sight is loaded. We do not con sider that California will draw any of our tonnage nor is it probable that much of it will be drawn else where. If such should be the case it is a matter of record that we have always drawn more than we have lost. In previous years no accurate statement of tonnage on the way could be arrived at, but this year there is every reason to believe that not half a dozen ves sels headed this way are not listed, and it will not do to allow any figure fojr this non-listed tonnage. How much of our tonnage is char tered to be loaded this calendar year? This is a difficult question, but we unhesitatingly say two thirds. This is not all held by shippers, as foreign and home spec ulators stepped in two and thregl months ago, taking considerable. The most of these vessels have been taken at G2s Gd and G5s, and those held by speculators will be open for re-charter; and as the outlook now appears, thoy have little room for a profit on their in vestment. Tke freight market this week is in a mixed condition, The opposite forces being at war. it is difficult to get a correct quotation. About ten days ago we reported a 1,000-ton iron ves sel taken at G5s for orders. She was a little premature, but is to day confirmed. She is for Novem ber cancelling. Possibly iron could be had for less, but as ex porters are holding back little is offering at any price. No one ap pears to think rates can materially advance during the calender year, except should the foreign grain markets establish a healtln- ad vance. To the farmer it is a matter of interest 'to know the probable price of wheat. The stock of old wheat on this coast is very small In the United States and Canada the N?w York produce exchange. a good authority, places it at double that of last year. J5eer bohm reports stocks of wheat and flour in Great Britain as large. A Portland operator, at present trav eling abroad, writes that storage room at London and Liverpool is scarce, the stocks of wheat and flour being heavy. Imports into Ti.iK. for last week were 1,970, 000 .centals. Crops throughout tfcfe .CTnited States promise well. The foreign markets are low with no prospect of early improvement. Freights from this coast are not high, nor yet are they low. From present appearances our market must, open at about $1.45$1.50. There is less room for speculation apparent this season than for years; so it would appear that any ad- j vance on opening prices will be slow. Oregon ion. The Escaped. Convicts . Saleai, July 2. Three of the oscaped prisoners were brought in this afternoon, Beauchamp dead, lieinbardt in a dying condition, and Mansfield with a slight flesh wound. They were captured last night on the Narrow Gauge rail road, a short distauce east of Woodburn. The circumstances of their capture are as follows : They were coming down the track when they were discovered by D. W.Gibson, AY. E. Price, M. V. Kays and Peter Heater of Stay ton and .1. K. Buff, of Silverton, who have been on their trail since Monday night, and who were wailing for them in a deep cut. As they approached, Kays ordered them to hall, which com mand they answered by turning to escape, when Kays and Gibson fired, dropping Beauchamp in his tracks. Buff and Heater then fired at the two others, who made their escape from this party and reached the house of Watt Towns end, some two miles away and gave themselves up to that man. Hcinhardt was found to be badly shot in the left breast, the whole portion of that part of his body being literally filled with buckshot, and Mansfield was shot in the leg. Beauchamp's bodv was brought to the prison about 9 o'clock this morning by the first, party and turned over to the authories, and an hour later Keinhardl and Mans field were brought in by Town send. There are but four of the con victs now out: Glenn, Kldridge, Disbrow and Bradshaw, and it is thought that two of them took supper last night at the Wood- burn hotel. JSracs. Fizing the Date. That the time of Christ's cruci fixion may be approximately demonstrated b' astronomical calculation, after paying due re gard to the historical data which we possess, is asserted by Judge Joseph P. Bradly of the supreme court of the United States. The cardinal conditions required are, first, that the time must be brought within the Procuratorship of Pontus Pilate; secondly, it must be after the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius, and after the 30th year of Christ's age; thirdly, it must occur on 15th of the Jew ish month Nisan (or Abib), on the sixth day of the week, or Friday. Alter a close and extended calcu lation, his honor reaches this con clusion: "There were only three years from A. D. 27 to A. D. 35 inclusive, in which the 1st of Nisan, and consequently the 15th of Nisan, happened on Friday, and there were A. D. 27, 30, and 33, the last of which is very doubtful. But the crucifixion could not have happened before A. D, 28, and probably not later than A. D. 31. Therefore, the year 30 is the only one which satis fies all the conditions of the prob lem. It does not satisfy them, because it gives opportunity for Jesus to teach publicly for about three years and to attend three Passovers during his ministry, or four, according as it commenced beiore or after April 3, A. D. 27. Now. since A. D. 30, the 1st of Nisan fell on Friday, the 24 th of March, the 15th fell on Fridav the 7th of April, which was the day of the crucifixion. "1 happen to know of a great many cases of rheumatism,sprains, etc., in which St. Jacobs Oil proved itself a never-failing panacea," said Mr. Win. A. Davidson, of Cincinnati, Ohio. "1 severely sprained my ankle while searching for geological specimens, and sul fered severely until I tried St. Ja cobs Oil. It cured me, leaving me in a mood to extol the Great German Remedy." Two and Two are Four. Maiivsvillk Cal., July 12 Yesterday Denis Haggerty and Henry Dowling, two hold-ups, met James Linn and a Swede,. three miles from town. Shooting Linn and beating the Swede with a club, they then robbed them of a few dollars. Last evening Ilog gerty and Dowling were arrested and locked up, and. afterward ta ken from the jail and hanged by the citizens. Linn and the Swede will die. The San Francisco Oi'rfdent says: "A few years ago women had only three legitimate occupa tions to seu. to teach and to keen house. Hut now they do almost everything except going to congress. Some people don't like t.: r :... ..11 mis urowuuig ui uuii:ii iiiiu an kinds of industrial pursuits. But how can they help it? Women must live, and men are too inef ficient to earn enough to support self and wife, hence avoid matri mony, whining that they cannot afford it, the women serve them right in competing with Hhem for work and wages. Kvery true man ought to try to gel a true woman to join him in building up a homo. It is for that God made then: male and female. We are old-fashioned enough to regard marriage as the divine rule, though there are and should be exceptions. There are both men and women who ought not to marry. But the men, at least, ought to be able to give some good and valid reason for not obeying the law Of God in this matter. The. case' of the woman is different she must wait until somebody asks her. And she is a silly woman it she says yes just because she is asked. Wc are glad that so many of our young women are seeking positions which make them independent glad that they do not think it necessary to marrv to get a living.
