SEBIOUS TROUBLE IN THE SOUTH
WEST. BUIOIDE OF A SPOKAHE LAWYER.
ASTOBIA.OBEGON:
WEDNESDAY JUNE 13.

Burnins of TheWhlte Star Cannery.
At fir o'clock yesterday afternoon
huge volumes of blaot smoke rolled
up from what appeared to be the As
toria box factory, and a few minutes
later sheets ol red name snot up.
The fire alarm rang out, and nine
minutes from the time it was sounded
the department bad traversed the
mile and a half and Rescue's Silsby
was pumping a stream on the east
end of the lumber piles on the Astor
ia bos factory's premises. Thirty
feet east of the factory the White
Star cannery was blazing from one
end to the other, and though it was
hot as the place Bob lngersoll doesn't
believe in. the boys stuck to it and
kept the fire from spreading. The
wind was blowine a steady breeze
from the west, and the houses east
and south of the blazing cannery
were saved by hard work, the great
mass ot flame and cinders blowing
off to the northeast out on the river.
There was an exciting half hour,
during which the fire thoroughly
consumed the cannery, and the boats,
machinery and appliances of all kinds
that were inside. It was a clean
sweep, and nothing is left but some
charred piles that held up the string
ers. The cannery had not been in use
this season. From all accounts the
fire originated in the west side, prob
ably from a spark blown from the
smoke stack of the Astoria box fac
tory, thirty feet to the eastward, and
which effecting lodgment smouldered
and spread, unseen, till smoke issu
ing through the roof directed atten
tion to the blaze
The cannery was built in 1880 by
C. Timmins.ltJ.Keed, A. TiJrakKe
and B. Gallagher; it was afterwards
bought by the White Star Packing
company and last January passed
into the hands of .Elmore San
born, who estimate their loss at 815,-
000. The insurance is understood to
aggregate S13.O00. The cannery will
not be rebuilt.
The Wrecked Bark "Julia Foard."
The crew of the bark Julia Foard,
which was wrecked in the Karluk
river, Alaska, April 27th last, arrived
on Thursday by the schooner Fran
ces Alice. The Julia Foard went on
the rocks in a northeaster and became
a total wreck. The crew have been
making various statements along the
water front, to the effect that the
whole fault of the wreck lay with the
Alaska Commercial company, which
they say had a steamer in thevicinity
of the wreck, but which refused to go
to the Foard's assistance, as the bark
was taking up goods and materials
for a rival company.
Louis SIoss ot the Alaska Commer
cial company denies these charges,
saying that the company has no in
terest at Karluk. has no office there
and that its steamers have no busi
ness in, nor are they ever in the Kar
luk river. Following is the story ot
the wreck, which has been received
at the office ot the Karluk Packing
company from their.agent at Karluk.
The letter is dated April 24th and
says:
"The bark Julia Foard arrived at
3 p. m. to-day bringing A. B. Webber
and others of the Alaska Improve
ment company. Sho anchored in
close proximity to our buoy and
fouled the company's lighter. On the
25th the steamer Karluk arrived, and
the captain of the Julia Foard was
offered a tow, but he refused to take
advantage of the offer and sailed his
vessel to a dangerous position at the
south head of the river. On the 27th
the Foard wa3 wrecked in a north
east gale south of the river spit, and
the hulk was sold to Thomes & Web
ber for S551. Several thousand dol
lars' worth of tin was saved."
The Karluk Packing company
claims that the captain of the Julia
Foard anchored within fifty yards of
its buoy, near Karluk, thinking that
the latter place was a good place to
land, and as he could get close to the
beach to discharge his cargo. He
was ordered to leave his position in
order to make room for the steamer
Karluk. He moved and anchored
abreast of the river, inside of the
Duoy, and that night (the 27th a
northeaster came down upon him and
he conld not get away from the
storm. The next day he showed sig
nals ot distress, and the ilarluk rack
ing company, so it is claimed, went to
his assistance and furnished his men
with blankets and stores until the
Fiances Alice was ready to take
them to San Francisco. & F. Chron

Ifandsome Banners For The Convention.
During the presidential campaign
of '84, two banners prepared from de
signs furnished by Mrs. A. E. Os
good, formed a prominent part in
several public meetings at San Fran
cisco, CaL, and elsewhere. The ban
ners were originally eight feet by ten;
in one was an oil portrait of Jas. Q.
Blaine, in the other an oil painting of
Jno. A. Logan, the work being done
by the famous Tojetti. These paint
ings were decorated by Mrs. Osgood,
with plush, gold bullion, and appro
priate designs, and when complete,
cost S700. They were afterwards cut
down some, and since their arrival in
this city have been at" the residence
of L L. Osgood, where many have
seen and admired them.
In response to a telegram from
Mrs. Osgood, who is now in Buffalo,
N. Y., Mr. Osgood yesterday packed
and sent by express the banners,
which will occupy a prominent place
in the hall of the Chicago National
Republican convention next Tuesday,
and will doubtless arouse considera
ble enthusiasm when displayed.
They will have conspicuously dis
played a large card reading "1884
1888. From Oregon, a land of pro
tection, by 7,000 majority!"
After the convention has adjourned
Mrs. Osgood will present the por
traits of their illustrious husbands
to Mra. Blaine and Mrs. Logan, respectively.
(SPECIAL 10 THE ASTOEIAN.)
Gainesville, Tex., June 12. Some
time ago the cattlemen of the Chicka
saw nation, Indian territory, resisted
the cattle tax of $16 per head for
grazing on Indian lands and drove
the collector and Ms deputies away
with violence. The governor was no
tified, and through him the United
states government Peaceable settle
ment was attempted, but without a
result favorable to the Indians. The
cowboys began to assemble and pow
about five hundred are rendezvoused
in the southern part of the nation.
Gov. Guy has ordered out the nation
al militia and about one hundred In
dians, and they are encamped at Ard
more preparatory to moving upon the
cowbovs. Cant McLishhis been put
in command of them and he has or
ders to move on them at once. To
day the camn is astir setting ready
for the campaign and it is expected
the troops will be on the march to
morrow. They will move cautiously
as it is feared they are not strong
enough to combat tie cattlemen who
are armed with Winchesters.
Many of these men are citizens of
the nation and it is feared that this is
the first outbreak of civil war. The
government troops are at Fort Reno
and are prepared to take the field in
case the Chickasaws cannot quell the
disturbance.
Topeka, Kan., June 12. A tele
gram from .Brigadier uen. Murray
says an alarming state ot affairs exists
in atevens county, on the ironner,
caused by railway bond elections.
The towns of Woodside and Hugolon,
are located about two miles apart
and a bitter feeling has always existed
between them crowinc out of the
county seat fight P. L. Jones, dep
uty sheriff, who is constable of Woods-
dale township, and another officer,
rode into Hugolon and attempted to
assassinate Sam Robinson and J. B.
Chamberlain, chairman board of
county commissioners. They pre
tended to have warrants or arrest ior
the parties, but instead of serving
warrants they drew their revolvers
and opened fire upon the marshal and
chairman of the board. Tho fire was
returned and the attacking party re
tired. One man was seriously
wounded. The inhabitants of both
towns are armed to the teeth and
bloodshed may follow.
Launch of The "Hazel."
A pretty little sloop was yesterday
hauled to the end of the Main street
wharf to be launched into the heav
ing Columbia. Launohing a vessel
from a dock bow foremost, and so on
was so unusual a performance that
1327 American citizens of the male
persuasion aged from eleven months
to seventy-three years got there to
see how it would co. After consider
able energetic advice and a good deal
of getting ready the craft was finally
up ended and got into position
Capt Hustler got his cannon out and
gave tne sloop a salute, Ken worsiey
stood by with a bottle of Pommerey
Sec., to break over her bow as she
glided by. when catching sight ot the
blaze at upper town he dropped the
champagne and lit out, and ten min
utes after was directing that a stream
be thrown on the north east quarter
ot the south east quarter ot the As
toria Box factory's lumber pile, T. 8
JN, H. a west. Uolumbia meridian.
But the sloop was slid off all the
same and dove into the water with a
great splash, and a cheer from the
crowd, and as she rounded to and
was brought up with a turn she look
ed taut and trim and reflected credit
on her clever builder, Joe Leathers.

J. F. Parks, a young attorney -from
Spokane Falls, committed suicide at
the St. Charles hotel today by taking
an overdose of morphine. He came
down a few days ago and had been
drinking and gambling since arriving.
He came down stairs from his room
early this morning and was seen at
the hotel office. He went back to his
room and was seen no more. About
one o'clock he was found in bed in a
dying condition. All efiorta to save
him were unavailing on the table was
found n box of morohine. nothing
was fonnd that furnished a clue or
assigned a reason for the act but
every indication is-that it was a de
liberate suicide.
Laying The Corner Stone.
'On Friday, thb 15th at 10 a. m , the
interesting ceremony of laying the
corner stone ot the magnificent ex
position building and zoological
gardens ot the North Pacific Indus.
trial association will take place.
This association, organized with a
capital of $150,000.00, is now erecting
a mammoth building in, the city of
Portland. Work on the structure
will be ready for the first annual ex
position early the coming fall. No
expense will be spared to make this
the grandest display of the industrial
interests ot the coast that has ever
been attempted. Its comprehensive
scope and the perfection ot detail
give evidence that no merely ordin-,
ary fair is in contemplation, and the
names connected with the' enterprise
are sufficient assurance that it will be
a complete success in every feature.
The whole northwest should unite in
a determination to make this truly
representative of the vast interests ot
the region. It will be a wonderful
aggregation.
That Terrible North Coast.
The captain ot the Silverdale
whose trouble with his crew was re
ported in last letter complains bit
terly at the exoessive charge made
by the owners of the tug Pioneer, for
towing his vessel from Cape Flattery
to Boyal Roads. On the other hand,
the tug owners in reply to this eharge
say 2,0j29 for saving from total des
truction a fine sh;p of the size ot this
vessel, is in their judgement, moder
ate and fair. The first visit of the
Silverdale to Paget Sound has been
most unfortunate; while loading at
Port Disoovery two ot the old crew
were lost, one by drowning and the
other falling into the hold. The cap
tain has had a most unpleasant ex
perience throughout his stay on the
Sound, and the . ship had gotten a
reputation of being an unlucky1 one.
This bad Iuok seemed to reach out
even as far as the tug that towed her.
The tug Pioneer, oaptain Grant, af
ter leaving the Silverdale at Boyal
Boads, ran on the rocks near Victor
ia. A steamer and two scows suc
ceeded in floating heroff at high tide.
Her hull, being ot iron, sustained
very little damage, so said the diver
who examined the bottom. Port
