When seen, the body was in a remarkable state of | preservation, considering the time it had been interred. Masked Robber Killed. Tacoma, Wash., May 24.—A «ingle robber late this afternoon held up and attempted to rob ati incoming car on the Steilacoom electric line. About 4 * miles out of the city a tall man, rough ly dressed, hailed the car, which stop ped, and he boarded it. As he got on the platform he pulled a blue dotted calico musk, having holes cut through j f<ir eyes, down over his face, produced a revolver and ordered Superintendent Dame, of the motor line, and Motorman Wellman to the rear end of the car. They complied slowly, and he fol lowed, ordering the men and the pas sengers to hold up their hands and the ladies to sit still. Dame and Wellman had entered a rear compartment used for carrying baggage and freight. The robber evidently thought them safely disjiosed of, for lie paid no more at tention to them, but commenced reliev ing George B. Evans, a contractor, oi bis valuables. This done, he com manded William E. Hacker, a broker, to stand up and be searched. In the ! meantime, Superintendent Dame had taken out his revolver and came in be hind Hacker, where he awaited an op portunity to shoot. A moment later lie placed his arm on Hacker’ s shoulder and fired into the robber, who returned the fire. Dame fired two shots and the robber three. Two minutes later, | the robber was lying beside the car, dead, while Dame had been shot in the arm anil Jewett Smith, a passenger, in the leg. B ru ta lity in a P rison . Philadelphia, May 24.— Today’ s ses sion of the legislative committee inves tigating the management of the state penitentiaries was sensational. Sena tor Gagerdorn, of Philadelphia, was the star witness. He said the official reports of tlie prison were filled with falsehoods, and that he could prove that the treatment of many convicts had been brutal and cruel. He said the institution reported there were 10 insane patients in November last, and that investigation made by him showed there were 50 at the time. Of these, lie said nine are now in insane asylums and one is dead as the result of cruel treatment at the prison. Thirty-six of the insane convicts, he said, are still in cells in the prison. He instanced the case of MeCue, a prisoner whom lie had ordered sent from the prison to the Northtown state insane asylum, and who died the next day, as alleged by the judge, from a beating he re ceived the night before his removal. He told of another insane convict, a colored man named Prentice, who for eight months had been tied to the steam pipes every night. M r. T o n x n r I n j u r e d . Wasliingotn, May 24.— Representa tive Thomas H. Tongue, of Oregon, was struck by a cable-car near the cornet of Pennsylvania avenue and Sixth street and painfully injured. He re ceived a number of severe cuts and bruises. Mr. Tongue had just returned from a trip with a number of senators and represenattives to Charlottvilie and Monticello. He was taken to Providence hospital, where it was found he had sustained ■ cut on the left cheek, and another over the left eye. No serious consequences are ap- prelieunded. ____ C a u c u s t o C o n s id e r T a r i f f B i l l .

Stock was drowned, houses wrecked, bridges washed out and orchards ruined. The loss is rough ly estimated at $100,000. The pleas antest little valley was a continuous orchard-garden for 15 miles above the town. A correspondent lias just returned from a trip four miles up the valley. From persons on the road it was learned the flood extended for at least three miles beyond that. The torrent tore down the valley about 4:30 o ’clock this afternoon. A wall of muddy water rolled through orchards and gar dens, entirely covering the narrower parts of the valley. Where the valley was widest it tailed to reach entirely across. As far as learned no lives were lost, but considerable stock perished. The bouses of Robert Campbell and John Dill were wrecked; John M iller’ s house was carried 300 feet from its founda tion. and many other places were more or less damaged. Between Asotin and a point four miles up the creek, all of the bridges, five in number, were washed out. Two of these belonged to the town and three to the county. The loss in this particular is about $2,500. It is thought that other bridges were washed out further up stream. But the chief loss was in the destruction of orchards and gardens. The torrent tore through these with great fury, washing off the smaller trees. The larger trees were left stand ing, though they were badly damaged. In the town of Asotin, comparatively little damage was done, beyond wash ing out bridges. The park was ruined. Nothing to equal this torrent has ever before been experienced since the settlement of the valley. Resume o f Events in the Northwest. k , ; û S S tt? ’S*-------- --- _
