At present there will be no oilier

the freight division will bo moved as
soon an facilities can be provided at
Riddle. Many believe, however, that
Gleubrook (Judge Riddle's pintle), in
stead of the present town of Kiddle
will be tlie final Ideation ol the division

certain that the repair shops for th.
Oregon division will be 1 ealetl and

There is a report, also, that Eugene

that the Koseburg local will then be

A S McCluie passtd from this lite this

venrx tin.l about six weeks since was
eo. .lined to his room. Friday lie was
stiioken Willi, paralysb, afkcling his
speech and entire right side, and was
helpless until hia death.
This removes one of Oregou's well-
known pioneers. iVr McCluro was
born on the Wulmsh river, Iudiaua,
May 3, 1S29, and w.-a therefore aged 08
year.', 1U months aim .o uays. nn
he emigrated lo Oiegon, and was one
of the party that attempted lo leave
the old California trail and enter west
ern Oregon through tlie pass near the
Three Sisters. ThosO familiar with
Oregon's early history will remember
that tills company lost their way, seni
a parly ahead to reach the settlement,
which in turn became lost, and that
staivalion nearly claimed them all be
fore they secured relief. Deceased has
resided in Oregon ever since, at Port
land and Kugetie principally. He was
the father of eleven ohiidren, Be. ell of
whom, together with his wife, are now
living: Henry and Waller, of Seattle,
attoiuey; Horace, Seattle, assistant
nianiigiiir editor Post-Intelligencer;

R'-seln'.ig Review: Quicks-liver is
soon to t.e produced in large tp.i uitities
(mm th ; lilack Butle mines in I.aue
enmity, about 17 miles sou'lual o
Collage Grove. There is a mountain
of ore of all degrees of richness, up ti ."ti
per cent mercuiy. A contract lias been
let for the construction of a 30 ton
iltiicksih'or furnace, with condenser,
dryer, etc, work on which is lo lie
begun immediately. Hie company
has ncently built a good wagon road
to the mines, bridging several slieauis;
has bought a lino farm lor headquar
ters, with buildings that will be used
as olllces, boarding houses, etc, and
every preparation u oeing inane lor
working the properly tlie coming
season.
Tlie importance of this quicksilver
properly lies to a considerable extent
iu the fact that for several years 'ho
production ef tho metal on tho Pacific
coast has been steadily tti eliulng on
account of the mlues being exhausted
Oilier mineral products have increased
in volume. The lopoit uf the experts
who examined ti e Black Hutle mine
say-:
"All the Indications f.om present
developments warrant the conclusion
that the entire mountain is an ini
meuse deposit of quicksilver cue, which
will produce practically 2 to 3 percent
which with the ease and cheapness
Willi which it could be worked, makes
it one of the most valuable mining
nronositions on tho Paeilic coast, if not
the w hole world."
Tlie properly consists of 1010 acres of
land along tlie top of Hint k Untie,
hich, rather than an individual
butte. Is a spur of tlie Cascade range,
and rises to a height of 2700 feet above
I the level of the surrounding country.
The cinnibar ore, mixed wiih a gaiigue
that is a sort of decomposed quartz,
crops out along a distance of about 4000
feet near the crest of tho rioge, aim
there aro many eligible Bites for fun
nels, dumps, inclinis, tracks, ore bins,
furnaces, shops, nnd a l the necessary
facilities for tho economical extraction
of the ore. Six main cuts and two
tunnels liavo been made, from which
assays were made showing from 3 to
40 per cent quicksilver. Tho cost of re
ducing tho ore ia estimated at $1 per
tou. The market price of the quick
silver Is about 52 cenis a pouud.
Some time ago J Behrman, who Is
ni'inaeing the work at the mine
brought to tlie Chamber of Commerce
a collection of mlneial specimens, two
largo pieces of rock bearing cinnibar,
in one of which Iho proportion is sain
to be 40 per cent of tho weight. Yes
terday Mr Behrman brought down a
vial with nine ounces of quicksilver
that ho said ho had reduced from a
pound of ore.
Tlie Black Butte joining Company
i com, nsed ol Seattle and Port Towns-
end men, who have been quietly III
vestignting the ruerils of their
claim", and adding to the extent of
their property. Now they aro ready to
open up the mini- aim worn u eueigui
ically, and it will become an Important
industry. It is said that iho cost of
ihe production of quicksilver ill Cali
fornia is hetw. en 22 to 20 cjnts per
pound, wliile the cost of gotting quick,
silver from tho lilack Butle mines is
estimated at 10 cnts per pound.

Chicago, III, March 20. The Chrou
Icle'a Washington t-orrespondeut says:
President McKinley is almost at the
point of collapse. His condition is
such that his friends are considerably
alarmed about him. At times he seems
to be all right, but he has frequent
spells of despondency, (luting which
he is in a state of nervous terror.
He acts like a man shrinking from
some invisible danger. When he has
one of those mysterious attacks he will
not listin to a suggestion of a war with
Spain.
When he is affected iu this way Mr
McICinleyaUo fears assassnatloii. He
has developed a superstitioti that Cuba
is destined to be free, but that his own
fate is In some way involved with the
beration of the Island from Span
Ish misrule.
At his lequcst the force of detective
employed at Iho White House and
about the grounds has been greatly in
creased. Officers Hi uniform are not
kept on guard, as was the rule under
former administrations, but detective
in citizens clothes are employed.
About 40 officers are now devoted to
the work of guarding the president.
The president's frieuds think that
his trouble is of a norvous character,
and that it has beeti superinduced by
loss of sleep aud mental worry result
ing from the attention he has given
tho Cuban question.
