Washington, Oct. 3.—Considerable
difficulty baa been experienced at the
Umatilla Indian agency, in Eastern
Oregon, during the past year, because
of the persistence with which white
men, living east and south of the reser­
vation, have allowed their cattle to
stray upon the reservation.
Many
complaints of this trespass were made
to Bonded Superintendent Charles Wil­
kins, in charge, who has advised the
Indian office that this trespass has
been to the detriment of tbe interests
of the Indians. Orders from him have
in many instances pat a stop to the
trespass, but not always. "Should tbe
same trouble be experienced in the fu­
ture," says Wilkins, "I will endeavor
to have the trespassing animals driven
in and impounded, and charge the
owners feed in order to redeem their
stock. This plan will perhaps once
for all result in stopping the nuis­
ance."
Superintendent Wilkins also ad­
visee the Indian office that the attend­
ance at the government school at Uma­
tilla showed a marked falling off in at­
tendance during the past year, while
the attendance at tbe Kate Drexel
school showed a corresponding in­
crease. This showing in favor of the
Catholic mission he attributes to the
abrogation of the "Browning rule,"
whereby Indian parents can now exer­
cise the privilege of sending their chil­
dren to the school they desire.
NO WAR FOR TIME AT LEAST.
Turkey Olves Assurance That It Will

Paris, Oct. 3.—Official advices from
the Balkans show two distinct signs
that war will be averted at least until

First, the Bulgarian revolu­

less hostilities are actually undertaken
within the next fortnight, all the prep­
arations will lie siisjiended until
spring. The purpose of thia, it is un­
derstood here will be permitting the

VALUES ARE HIOHER.
Taxable
Property of State Is
About *175,000,000.
Worth Spending of Lewis and Clark Fund In
Its Hands.
From what can be learned in unoffi­
cial advices from different counties of
the state, it seems probable that the
total value of the taxable property of
the state as shown by the assessment
recently completed will be in the
neighborhood of *175,000,000. Thia
will be in round numbers *25,000,000
greater than last year.
From aimoat every county comes the
report that valuations are being ad­
vanced and that new property is being
added to the assessment rolls, so that
the total increase for the entire state
will be large.
The bigbeet assessment ever made in
Oregon was that of 1893, when the total
valuation was over *168,000.000. The
valuation had grown to that sum by
steady advances from *84,000,000 in
1887. From 1893 onward the counties
began to vie with each other in reduc­
ing assessments in order to escape a
portion of the burden of state taxes.
The state taxes weie apportioned among
the counties in proportion to the as­
sessed valuation and as each county
controlled its own assessment it could
gain something by reduction. In 1900
this process of reduction had brought
the total assessed valuation down to
*117,000,000.
In order to put a stop to thia rivalry
in reducing assessments the legislature
of 1901 passed an act providing that
state taxe i shall be apportioned among
the counties at a fixed ratio. The ben­
eficial results of this change were seen
the first year, for the total assessment
that year was *141,000,000, and in
1902 it had grown to over * 148,000,000.
If it shall reach * 175,000,000 this year,
as now seems probable, the valuation
will then be the highest in the history
of the state.
Nearly all of the advance indicated
this year could have been made upon
timber lands without placing an unjust
vsluation upon that class of proprety.
In nearly all the counties where there
is a considerable area of timber land
subject to assessment, increased valua­
tions have been made this year.
In
cities, where both business and resi­
dence nroperty has found ready rental
at satisfactory rates, the valuations
have been put up.
Reports received from various sources
indicate that the valuation of farm
property has not been radicaly in­
creased, but only in accordance with
improvements made.
BOUGHT BY EASTERN MEN.
Cornucopia Group of Mines In Eastern
Oregon Sold for *600,000.
A telegram received at Baker City
by I aic K A Schmitz from Trenton, N.
J., announcing the incorporation of the
Cornucopia mines of Oregon company,
with a capital stock of *5,000,000.
This announcement closes one of the
largest mine deals ever consummated
in Oregon. It involves the purchase
of the famous Cornucopia mine in the
extreme northeastern portion of Baker
county, which isincluded in the Union-
Companion group, the Red Jacket, the
Last Chance and 15 other patented
claims, together with the mills, trill
sites and extensive water rights. This
property belonged to the J. E. Searles
bankrupt estate. The price paid for
the mining pro|>erty was *600,000
cash. These mines have been worked
since 1685 with varying success, owing
to the leng distance from railroad
transportation, all ore and supplies
having to be hauled a distance of 55
miles over a difficult mountain road.
A portion of the ore is very rich, while
there is a great quantity of low grade
ore, which it will not pay to transport
by team.
It is understood that one of the first
moves of the new company will be the
construction of a railroad from Baker
City to the mine. A tunnel over one
mile long has been surveyed for the
pur|M>se of opening up all of the claims.
Bernard McDonald has l>een appointed
general manager and has taken posses­
sion for the new owners.
Attorney General Crawford has ren­
dered an opinion at the request of Sec­
retary of State Dunbar in which he
Holds that the state commission for the
expenditure of the *500,000appropriat­
ed for the Lewie and Clark fair, must,
to a great extent, if not entirely, be the
judge of what expendituers are author­
ized to oe made oy them.
This question was presented by the
incurring of an expense of *2.50 for
printing a resolution presented to the
Trane-Mississippi congress requesting
an appropriation from the national
congress in aid of the Lewie and Clark
fair. The secretary of state was in
doubt whether the commission could
use the fair appropriation in trying to
get other appropriations, and referred
the matter to the attorney general,
with the result above stated.
Judge Crawford says, among other
things, that neither the title nor the
body of the Lewis and Clark fair act
attempts particularly to define the pow­
ers and duties of the commission, but
in every instance confers a general pow­
er to carry out the purposes for which
it was created.

Washington, Oct. 1.—Secretary Wil­
son said today that the receipt through
the state department, of an official no­
tire that Great Britain bad removed its
embargo on cattle and sheep from the
New England jiorts was the conclusion
of the great work in which the depart­
ment had been engaged since heptemler
1 for the eradication of foot and mouth
disease from the New England Gates.
The secretary regards this as the most
important and valuable piece of work
the department has done for American
agriculture.
"No country,” he said, "before has
succeeded in stamping out such an ex­
tensive outbreak of ibis disease. The
ins;>ectora and their assistants were
obliged to work in the o;«n country
with the thermometer far below zero.
Some of the men had their extremities
frozen and were disabled. It is diffi­
cult, even at this time, to understand
how the pits were dug in the frozen
ground for burying the carcasses, and
how the disinfectants were applied with
everything of a liquid nature froze in
a short time after it was exposed to
the atmosphere. But the work was so
thorough that not in a single case
where the disinfection was conducted
by the department’s representatives
did the disease reoc ur when fresh cat-
tie were introduced."

Notification was also made that per­

prior to September 1 would lie held in
the warehouse at White Horse only at
the risk of tlio shipper. Connecting
lines were notified that as regards ship­

Strong Drink Is Causing the Impover­

Washington, Oct. 1.—The first re­
port of Henry F. Liston on the Puyal­
lup consolidated Indian agency near
Tacoma, Wash., seems to indicate a
deplorable condition. The granting to
the Indians of full ;>ower to sell their
lands and chattels has worked great
evil. Tbe Indians, it is said, will sell
their birthright for the price of a few
drinks, and even the boys and tbe girls
are alleged to be acquiring the drink
habit. Drunkenness, according to Lis­
ton’s re;>orts, prevails to a shocking de­
gree.
Liston urges congress to take away
from the Indians the right to sell prop­
erty, the proceeds ot which are now
being used to purchase alcoholic stimu­
lants of toe most vile sort. Some
means should be devised, Mr. Liston
suggests, to prevent the utter impover-
ishmnet and destruction of the Puval-
lups through strong drink.

COLLIDB ON CURVE.
Trains Come Together In Nevada With
Oreat Force.
Beowawe. Nev., Oct. 5.—A disastrous
headon collision occurred last night on
the Salt Lake division of the Southern
Pacific at this station. The first sec­
tion of train No. 6, the Atlantic ex­
press, from San Francisco, collided
with the second section of No. 219, a
west bound freight train. One passen­
ger was killed and more than 20 in­
jured.
Kelief trains were sent to the scene
of the wreck from W innemucca and
Carlin, carrying doctors. Among the
passengers on the train were a doctor
and a trained nurse and two discharged
soldiers. The latter had served in the
hospital corps in the Philippines.
They rendered great service to the in­
jured before the arrival of other medi­
cal assistance.
The concussion was so great when the
trains collided that a passenger coach
telescoped the smoking car for half its
length. The engines are locked to­
gether.
The second section of train No. 219
came down the main line at Beowawe
to allow a freight on the sidetrack to
pull out. Conductor Dorsey, in charge
of No. 219, saw what the engineer was
doing, and as No. 6 was about due,
turned the air on the train, breaking it
in two. The head brakeman went back
to connect while the fireman went to
Hag the first section of No. 6, which
was coming. It being on a curve, the
passenger engineer did not see the flag­
man until the trains were almost to­
gether and it was impossible to prevent
the crashing together of the powerful
engines. Both engine crews jumped
and both engines were demolished.
WAR CLOUDS LIFT.
Bulgaria Takes New Hope In Macedonia
—Porte Lessens Apprehensions.
Sofia, Bulgaria, Sept. 30.—The situ­
ation here is much brighter today, and
the war clouds appear to have lifted.
The porte’s assurance that the 32 oat.
tai ions recently ordered to proceed from
Monastir to Adrianople will not be
moved has lessened the apprehensions
of the Bulgarian government. Further
satisfaction is derived from the fact
that M. N'atobovitch is going io Con­
stantinople in the capacity of Bulgarian
diplomatic agent.
He conducted the
negotians with the porte last June, and
after their failure returned to Sofia.
The committee appointed for the pur
pose at the time of yesterday's demon­
stration of 15,000 Macedonians in this

and asked him if the government in­
tended to do anything to help the Mac­

istry was acting in what it conceived to
be the beet interests of Bulgaria, and
would continue the same policy. The
spokesman of the committee told the
premier bis reply would not be satiefcat-
ory to the people, and the committee
thereupon withdrew.
The Dnevnik, commenting on the
situation, says:
"Although the Bulgarians remain
quiet, it is not a true indication of the
national feelings, but it is owing to the
approaching elections."
The paper adds it will "not be long
