Union— The consummation of one of S r 'E L W r nin‘ propositions i>, ti onu’t*''1 ln Union county, if not ■n the entire state, was announced here a few days ago. George H. Down* Z mining promoter, who has been m ik ing the town of North Powder his head quarters the past two years while at work upon this big deal, stated that his project has the hacking of New 1 ork capitalists, and that the matter has reached the point of certaintv of consummation. • ‘ The company has just perfec ted its lncorporatmn, and the articles w ill be hied with the county clerk here and with the secretary of state. The name of the corporation is the Kastcrn Oregon Mining, M illing, Transportation, Smelt ing & Generating company. The capi tal stock is placed at ¿5,000,000. The hrst officers of the corporation w ill be: H . o Gorham, president and treasurer; w . H Gorham, vice-president and George H , Downs, secretary and gen eral manager. The company proposes to erect a 250- ton smelter near the town of North 1 owder, in Union county, about 15 miles south of Union, for treating all the various grades of gold and copper ores found in the southern part of Union county and northern part of Baker county, and in order to bring such ores to the reduction works it is proposed to build a number of short electric lines to the mines, covering a distance of over 50 miles. These lines are to be built not only for earriyng ores, hut passengers and freight as w*U. Manager Downs de clined to give particulars as to the routes of the lines, but says the entire project is a certainty. Must Supply the Water. quence of the weavers’ strike. Nothing this morning foretold the serious dU- turbauces about to occur, but at noou the strikers, not receiving answers to their demands from the employers, broke out into the wildest excesses. A mob of 6,000 gathered in the great square and urged the troops stationed there to throw down their arms, shout ing: “ Down with patriotism .’ ’ rhe rioters then spread through the principal streets, breaking the windows of the stores, dragging out the huge display rollB of linen, which "they stretched across the streets with the object of impeding the advance of the cavalry. They wrecked shops, sacked the houses of persons obnoxious to the ringleaders, and attacked the banks, in two of which they succeeded in stealing a few hundred dollars from the tills. One gang set fire to a large quantity of linen in the cellars of Messrs. Bec- quart s factory. Others broke the win dows of houses and threw inside burn ing straw. Hie troops, hampered by the obstruc tions thrown in their way by the riot ers, were for a long time unable to dis perse the mob. Fin ally a determined «barge by lancers restored temporary quiet. After dark the rioters tore up sewer gratings and paving stones and stretch ed wires across the streets. Women brought piles of empty bottles for use as missiles, w hile boys sw armed up the lamp posts and extinguished the gas jets. In spite of the efforts of the sol diers the rioters then proceeded to sack the houses, dragging out the furniture, saturating it with petroleum and set tin g fire to it in the street. F ire was put to two houses belonging to the strikers’ employers and one big factory. The local brigade, being inadequate io cojie with tile conflagrations, an urgent appeal was sent to the neighboring town of L ille, whence a steam pump and reinforcements of firemen were sent. By midnight, however, the troops and police had gained the upper hand and dispersed the mob. The streets are now deserted except for the armed pa trols. The authorities are taking meas ures to ascertain the names of the ring leaders in the riots.
