London, March 3U.— An attempt to
asxasinate Theodore Roosevelt e as
made on the steamship Hamburg, ac
cording to dispatches received here to
day fom Horta, Island o f Faya!, A z
ores. The assassin’s attempt was frus
trated, the dispatches add, and the man
was placed in irons.
As the steamer was losing sight of
land Giuseppe Tosti, a steerage pas
senger, broke from his companions and
started for the upper deck, where Mr.
Roosevelt was standing with his son
Kermit.
“ He has let them take away my
child,” shouted Tosti, in English,
“ Now he shall pay for it.”
Sailors seized Tosti, quickly master
ed him, carried him below and by the
captain’s orders put him in irons.
For four days the prisoner refused to
eat, constantly crying:
“ Roosevelt is
trying to poison me.”
Then the ship’s doctor had to taste
all food offered to Tosti before he would
eat it.
A t Mr. Roosevelt’s request the
steamship Hamburg’s course was
changed to the Azores.

Lakeview—The largest deal in the
history of Lake county haa just been
closed here by the Oregon Valley Land
company, purchasing the holdings of
th i Heryford Land & Cattle company.
The sale transfers 40,000 acreB of the
choi est lands in the county. The tract
embraces lands in Goose lake, Chewau-
can and Drews valleys, as well as much
land in the borders of Oregon and Cali
fornia. Close to Lakeview are 15.000
acres of this land, which added to the
35,000 acres heretofore owned by the
Oregon Valley Land company, form
the most valuable tract now under pro
cess of colonization by that company.
The holdings are among the oldest in
Oregon.
The sale o f these lands is a surprise
to many, as the company was strong
financially.
But Mr. Heryford and
his partners realize the stock raising
business will sooner or later be driven
out by the incoming rush of settlement
and saw fit to have those lands turned
into farms.
By this purchase the Oregon Valley
Land company has auded very consid
erably to the interest o f its contract
holders, by throwing into the original
tract so much of the finest lands in
Oregon. The lands purchased from

San Francisco, March 27.— That the
Harriman and Hill railroad forces are
getting together and that an agree

A fte r E. H. Harriman and Lewis W.
Hill, president o f the Great Northern,
had met at Paso Robles Thursday
night, they came on to San Francisco
together yesterday on Mr. Harriman’s
private train and were in conference
most o f the morning. A fte r their ar

ranged in an informal talk, which oc
cupied half an hour, for a conference
to take place today between Mr. Hill,
Mr. O ’ Brien and Mr Nutt for the pur
pose o f discussing traffic affairs. Be
yond simply stating that such a confer
ence would take place today, the offi
cials refused to give any information
as to what the probable result o f the
conference would be, preferring not to
make public any of their plans until
after they have held their meeting.
The presence o f Mr. O’Brien and
Mr. Nutt implies clearly that the con
ference will relate to points where the

Peace Efforts o f Powers Fail, and
Outbreak is Expected.
Paris, March 26.— It is understood
in official circles that the Balkan situ-
ati >n on account o f the irreconcilable
attitude of Austria-Hungary has now
reached its most acute stage and that a
few days will decide between peace
or war. The efforts of Great Britain,
France and Russia to present a formal
settlement of the difficulty acceptable
to Baron von Aehrenthal, the Austro-
Hungarian minister o f foreign affairs,
having failed, Austria-Hungary iB ex
pected forthwith to deliver an ultima
tum at Belgrade.
A fte r this, if Servia refuses to make
complete surrender, officials here think
that Austria-Hungary will dispatch an
army across the frontier. The Eclair
today announces that the absent offi
cers belonging to the French regiment
on the Eastern frontier have been re
called. The minister o f war says “ that
certain precautionary measures have
been taken on account of the tension
o f the Balkan situation.”
The government this afternoon was
officially advised that Russia had
agreed to accept without reserve the
annexation o f Bosnia and Herzegovina
by Austria-Hungary. It is hoped that
this will remove Baron Aehrenthals’
objection to the Servian note formu
lated by Great Britain, France and
Russia.
