The Totter got down abreast of the Dalglty Iron Works yesterday" afternoon and found herself between wind and tide when she tried to turn to get back to her dock. It was fully twenty minutes before she was able to accomplish this. The heavy northwest wind tWit pre vailed iar.l day yesterday made the tides in the river very hlgfa.

George Ltshl, who was arrested by As sistant Fish Commissioner Hawlces for maintaining a fish trap more than half way across the channel of the Puyallup river, und who was discharged by Jus tioe MeMurray on the ground that he was an Indian and had never become a citizen nor relinquished his treaty rights, eays he will noar go bak and go to milling. Attorney G. W. H. Davis, who was prosecuting the case, states that he docs not know exactly what rights Ledhi may have, but it will cost more to find out than the fish In the Puyallup tare worth. Tommy Lane, who was the last chief of the Puyallup tribe of In dians, to which Leshl belonged, says that in old times the Indians used to have four traps across the stream; one near Old Stanup's, place, one at Burnt Char ley's place, nd another up by Clark's creek, and the fourth above Puyallup, oind they caught aa many fish In the up per trap as In tho lower, and If Leshl wants to fish he don't see who will bo harmed by It.

From all accounts the European manu facturers of armor (have settled down to the conviction that the American armor Is the best extant, and that pending further developments on this :,ide of the water, trero Is nothing left to do but to make armor equalSy as good as that now on our ships. So far as our naval ordnance officers are advised, none of the foreign armor tlrras are conducting any important experiments. They are watch lrg, however, with deep Interest every movement In this direction by our manu feeturer of armor and ordnance ex perts. Persistent but futile efforts were made by repreii-ntatlves of foreign gov ernments and firms 10 witness the tet the other day with the lAckerman Im proved Harvey plate and the Wheeler chrome pdlate and to diccover the secrets of the new process. Although, the gen eral results of the trials with both of these plates have leaked out, the details of the processes of rrrmufacture are si 111 carefully guarded, especially frcm fjreisners. Our authorities have come to t!i conclusion that H wn htgli time imthlng was being dono to prevent for eigners from benefiting by our cotly ex periment in the nrmor line. It Is grfitly regretted now that Biep were not taken to reserve to th t'nited States the exclusive right to the processes for manufacturing surface-hardened armor. A holt Unas now been called. The naval Ordnance bureau proposes ffolna; ahead with armor experiments, but It will here after corcfu'jly keep lis valuable .icereta. The San FranoU'co Call prints the fol lowing marine Items: The bark f?. C. Aln arrived: on Satur day evening nineteen days from Hono lulu. She sailed up the bay and was spoken toy the Customs launch, the ofH cers on which Informed the captain that ho came Trom a disease infected port, and was subject to quarantine. The bark was towed back toward Fort 'Point, where he was boarded by the quarantine offleer. No sickness was found aboard her, but eihe, with her fifteen passen gers, was placed In quarantine. Dr. Chalmers and two members of the boaird of health vlelted the ship Benja min Soawoll, which came In on Friday from Rio Janeiro with a case of scurvy, and wua detained In the quarantine sta tion, and also the S. C. Alien, to deter mine what wa best to be done with the vessels. The British bark Dominion arrived yes terday, 78 days from New South Wales. Contrary to expectations the vessel found seme furious Cape Horn weather that had strayed out In the Pacific. They en countered a succession of gales, begin ning to blow from the southeast, gradu ally veering around to the westward. So flerce were the squalle and so suddenly would they come up that sail after sail would be ripped from the yards and blown away. It was necessary to carry a little canvas even In the hardest part of the storm, and, as the lower sails and topsalla are generally usod under these conditions the bark lost all of those satis several 11 m&s. Such fore and aft canvas as the Jib, flying Jib and mlzzem topgal lant staysail were blown away. The seas came over tho rail, flooding the decks until everything around was washed from Its fastenings. The bark finally wore the I gule out and her further passage to port I was uneventful. A dispatch from Crescent received at the 'Merchants' Exchange here yesterday etated that the little schooner Maid of Oregon had gone ashore neir that place and the vecsel and cargo were a total loss. The crew had escaped to the beach and were safe. A few days ago It was reported by telegraph that the vessel wua waterlogged and disabled near the mouth of Rogue river. She Is an old craft, owned In Astoria or Portland, and of little value. OCEAN CURIRENT3 Carried a Piece of Wood to His Mother Across the Sea. Ntw York Tribune. In September, 1892, the daughter of the blacksmith In Ca.ma was wandering on the shore gathering driftwood for fueU when, In a small bay, about 100 yards distant from her father's house, she picked up ia piece of wood bearing the inscription cut with a knife: "Lachlan Campbell, Bilbao, March 23, 1802." On taking It to her mother aho became much concerned, as this was the name bf her own son, who was a boiler maker In Spain, (and, as would be the case with most people certainly with the Highland ers &'he could not get over the superstl tltlon that this message from the sea was the harbinger of evil tidings regard ing herson. Tho family of tho pro prietor did their best to calm her fears, exhorting her to wait for an explana tion. When writing to her son she told him of what had happened and was greatly relieved on receiving a reply assuring her of his weld-being, but was astonished to leuirn 'that he perfectly remembered how, when on a 'holiday, he had written, lis described, on a piece of wood and had Idly thrown it Into tho sea from a rock near Bilbao. We aW know the power ot ocean currents and need not be surprised at this piece of wood having been car ried for e'lx months, but the marvelous the incredible circumstance in this case Is that this piece of wood after its long wandering, should have' been washed on the shore within ono hundred yards or where the writer's mother lived, and that it should be picked up by one of his own family and taken homo. Had any novelist dared to plcure a message de livered In this way by means of an ocean current every reader, and certainly every critic, would have denounced the outrageous demand on faith. And yet the apparently Impossible actually oc curred In Canna. THE DISCOVERY SAVED HIS LIFE. Mr. Q. Calllouette, druggist, Beavers- vi lie. III., says: "To Dr. King's New Dis covery I owe my life.

Stephensen, wttio is 67 years old, has killed 32 porcupines in the past eight weeks." On account of the continued bad weather the Albany races wore poitponed until Thursday, Friday and Saturday of the present week. The sheepmen, of Crook county are offering a bounty of $1 upon all1 coyotes killed. Other locaMtles mlgM find It profitable on the part of .sheep owners to offer the same bounty for dogs killed. The mining people of Quartzvillo are taking steps to secure a pcwtofllce, mail route and telegraph service. Thoy have a permanent eettlement there now Which warrants the establishment of such ser vice. There Is now a etrong probability that the O. R. &N. Co. will build a tunnel through the Blue mountains and thus cut off thirty miles of tho distance from La Uramde to 'Portland. The construc tion of thla tunne lhaa been talked of for several years . Times are getting tough. A west sldo editor Is said to have mortgaged his cow to a banker. Sheridan ftun. That's nothing, oays the Salem Post, with its usual driveling calamity howl. Here they try to sell the n)lrts off their backs, but they are so ragged they can not find a purchaser. Messrs. T. J. James and Thos. Pope, of the Lodl Mining company, discovered a ledge of gold quarts In the Cornucopia district in Union county that promises to rival the richest ledgs In the camp. The ledge Is four feet thick. The find Is located about three-quarters of a mile from the town of Cornucopia. The Albany Herald says: "Mr, Beall, the careful and efficient receiver of the Linn County National bank is now ready with the filth dividend to the claimants of thiait institution. Thfs Is getting well on toward a settlement, and Indicates that eventually every claim will be full reimbursed. The fact speaks well for the receiver, and for that matter, also for the national banking laws. The sheriff yesterday served the man date of the Marion county circuit court on tho secretary of state directing him to pay to Railroad Commissioner J. B. Eddy the amount of his back salary claimed and the funds In the state treas ury shortly afterward were diminished to that extent, cays a Salem exchange. This case having settled the maitter of the legality of the commissioners to hold (aleo other officers elected by the legls Jative body) each member of the board will draw his pay. H. P. McQuIre, the game warden, comes under the list and, being in the city yesterday, he, too, re ceived his bock pay. The Oriental hotel at Oregon City has recently changed ownership .having been sold to the Gambrlnua Brewing Co. for $8,000. This is one ot the t.lstorlc build ings, of Oregon City and was erected In 18&0. The territorial legislature once pro mulgated laws In the walls of this building-, and after tho old court Jroune on the hill1 tat Oregon City was burned down the second story of the building was used as a court room for some time. The lumber used! In Che construction of the building was bro tght around Cape Horn In 1849. During the forty-flva years that this building has withstood conflagrations on etlher side, a variety of enterprises have been carried on within Its walls. Statesman. The west bound freight duo hero at 9 o'clock was badly wrecked near Squally Hook Saturday night. The approach to Squally Hook from the Eaist Is around a short curve and this Is where the ac cident occurred. As the train came in under pretty good speed, Engineer Mc Ewan discoved a small band of cattle on the track, but too late to prevent running into tlvem. The pilot struck a big buil and threw him off the track and ajyalns the bank, but after the engine had parsed tlie carcass rolled back on the tratk. Thirteen cars, mostly loaded with merchandise from the Bast, were derailed and badly wrecked. Two tramps who were riding the brake beams were killed. Fortunately none of the train crew were hurt Times. The Fossil Journal says: "The first portion of the new road from Fossil to The Dalles was practically provided for this week when the county courts al lowed petitions for county roads Nos 89 and 90, which makes a. county road from Fosll to the John Day river, op posite Sherman .county, on the route surveyed by the promoters ot the new road to The Dalles. There was a re monstrance, but It was not big enough. Commenting on the above ""he Dalles Times-Mountaineer remarks: "Now then It remains to be seen what Sherman county will do. It should not be an expensive road to build through Sherman and If that portion of the road Is once assured, the part through Wasco county will be looked after. The Fossil people say they can come to The Dalles almost as readily aa they can go to Arlington, and as owing to competition by the D. P, & A. N. Co. the markets are much bet ter for all farm products, a large trade would be diverted' to this point." The trestle across Mill creek caught another victim last night in the person of Thomas Woods, a half-breed, who claims to have been on tils way to the Indian school at Chemawa, says the Times-Mountaineer. He was traveling by the brake-beam route, and In trying to board the passenger "train this morning ran off the end of the walk on the north side of the trestle and landod In the mud thirty feet beCow the starting point. It was quite dark at the time, but for tunately for him, sameone heard the dull, sickening thud with which he struck the Mill creek mud, and he was soon picked up. Dr. Holllater attended to his Injuries, and sewed up his chin, which received a gash several Inches In length. The man was delirious for a while, and is suffering from concunsion ot the spine and internal Injuries tonight. It might save the county considerable expense to stretch a life net under the trestle, as It catches many an unwary tramp. Woods will probably be all right In a day or two and will be able to take a course at the Indian school yet. He claims to have come from Adams; where he says, he has resided for twelve years. Baker City, says the East Oregonisn, has discovered that her newly amended charter contains no provision for the holding of elections and consequently the municipality must forego that luxury. In quiry at Salem brings out the fuels that a bill was introduced by Senator King tost session of the legislature and pained, amendatory of Baker City's charter vir tually a new charter. When the new laws were printed and reached Baker City the discovery was made that a whole section of ths charter wan mleilng- the section which prescribed a time for the election of city officers. The people of the city have been 'n e turmoil slnco the discrepancy leaked out and have been writing and telegraphing to th) state bouse to ascertain the whys and wherefores of the trouble. The flirt supposition was that the mistake was made either by tho state printing office or by the clerical force in the secretary of state's office, but It belongs to neither of these oVpttrtment. The section was left out from the enrold blU, though It appears all right at all previous stages. Tlie appearance of the enrolled bill Indi cates that some slight change had been .mtf mpiumi In tlH date of Hlon or t title of the oihcers and tbox uie en rol.lng committee had been walling for an (agreement on these points, which naa not supplied, so the bill was com Dieted without noticing that the space left for "Section 13" had not been fll'.cd in. Baker City will be forced to get afonar with, her present city officers until the next session of the legislature. Samuel E. Jlidlam has filed a lease ot 320 acres ot land in the vicinity of Wil holt Springs for the purpose of mining coal, clay and rock for building and other purposes. Albert O. Walling, ot Oswego, is the owner of the land. The term ot tho lease Is 13 years, but if, after two years of prospecting, none of the pro ducts named should bo found In paying quantities the Instrument will be void. Mr. Midlam came to Oregon a few months ago from the coal regions of Pennsyl vania, and represents himself to be an ex perienced coal miner and something of a geological expert. He says there ia coal, kaolin, fuller's day, asphaltum and building stone In the land he has lased, but he does not yet know whether In quaC'lty and quantity sufficient to make them profitable to work. He feels rea sonably sure of cool, however, and says he will have several1 wagon loads to Oregon City in a few days, and will prob ably begin at once to supply the local market. Ho says tt Is not lignite, but a good coal for blacksmlting. The pros pecting will toe camrled on through the winter In a small way, but nothing In the way of development Is expected to be done till next year. The presence of a fair quality of coal in the hill near Wll holt has long been known, but nobody has hitherto fe?t sufficient Interest in the matter of Its development to expend money or energy In that direction. The proposed electric railroad from Oregon City to Wilholt to supposed to lrnve some bearing on the new deal.

The wounded Indian was removed to Inde pendence for medical treatment and shortly afterwards the city rr.arshall there placed Tom under arrest and noti fied Sheriff Knight to send an officer for him yesterday.
