by Landing Party.
Manila, Sept. 26. The cralser
Charleston, the monitor Monterey and
the gunboats Concord and Zafiro, with
the marine and blnejackets from the
cruiser Baltimore, left Cavlte Heptem
ber 19, and, as already cabled, pro
ceeded to Snbig bay to destroy an in
turgent cannon there.
Owing to the bad weather, the opera
tion wa postponed until yesterday,
when the warships for three hour bom
barded the town of Olangapo and the
entrenchments where the gun was situ
a ted. Men from the Charleston, Con
cord and Zafiro were then landed uu
der a heavy insurgent fire, proceed in;
to the cannon, which was utterly de
stroyed by gunootton, and then re
turned to the warships. The Ameri
cans had one man wounded during the
engagement.
While waiting in Eubig bay for bet
tor weather, the Americans descried
Filipino reinforcement moving toward
Olangapo. At 0:40 A. M. yesterday
the Monterey began to advance upon
the town, which was about three miles
east of the monitor's anchorage. The
Chalreston, Concord and Zafiro fol
lowed. At 7:20 the Monterey opened
fire with her secondary and main bat
teries; the Charleston and Concord join-
ing immediately. At 7)30 the insur
gent cannon answered the first shot
passing close to the Monterey' smoke-
ttaclc The gun wa fired twice only.
The American bombarding then be
came general. At 9:30 the Monterey
advanced to a range of 600 yards, using
ber main battery. Two hundred and
fifty men were landed about 800 yards
east of the cannon at 11 o'clock, under
a severe Manser fire.
The men from the Charleston were
the first to reach the beach, but the
Concord' men were the first at the
gnn, which they reached at 11:10.
The cannon was fonnd to be a 16-cen
timeter Krnpp gun, presumably ob
tained from the Spaniards. Meanwhile
the warship continued to shell the
shelving beach on the east and west
aide to silenca the insurgent fire upon
the sailors from the trenches skirting
the beach.
Gunner Olsen exploded 60 pounds of
gunootton in three discharges In the
cannon, which had suffered from the
fire of the warships.
The Americans then returned to the
boats, the firing inland being kept np
to protect the embarkation. The Con
cord's men were the last to leave the
shore and tha warships were reached
at 11:50.
Cadet Brinzer, with the Concord's
launch, armed with a gatling, did ex
cellent work on the left of the landing
party. Captain Meyers, of the ma
rlnes, captured a muzzle-loading field
piece. Lieutenant McDonald was in
command of the landing party, and the
movement wa splendidly executed and
controlled.
The numbers of the Filipinos there
could not be ascertained, and no dead
were seen.
The Monterey fired for four hours
21 shots from her 10-inch guns, and 17
from her 12-inch guns. The town,
which was riddled with shells, took fire
at several points.

by
Working Har Parapa Steadily.
Ban Francisco, Sept. 26. The United
States transport Leelenaw came into
port today with the pumps steadily at
work to ovorcome the effect of a hole
in the ship's bottom. The Leelenaw
sailed for Manila September 2, with
a cargo of oommissary stores and 200
horses for army use. After leaving this
port distemper was developed among
the horses, and so many of the animals
died that the Leelenaw put into Hono
lulu and landed there the oommissary
stone and the surviving horses. The
transport then started on the return
trip to this city.
During the three days prior to reach
ing tills port, so thick and constant was
the fog that no observations could be
taken, and, having lost her bearings,
the Leelenaw struck a reef near Mon
tara, 20 mile south of this port, last
evening. She was for five hours stuck
fast on the rocks, and when she finally
floated off at high tide it was found that
the jagged rock had torn a hole in her
bottom.
It will be necessary for the Leelenaw
go in dry dock for a considerable
to
overhauling. In addition to the leak,
the vessel was badly straiM by her
experience on the reef.

Ashland, Sept. 23. One thousand
dollars in gold was secured in two pang
of rock pounded np and washed ont
one day last week at the Angle and
Brown strike on Mount Sterling, about
20 miles south of Ashland, and just
over the California line. An Ashland
man who has just returned from th
icene is responsible for the statement,
which is not doubted by those who art
acquainted with the richness of tht
lead, which is known as the Klondike.
Tliis claim is located near the summit
of Mount Sterling, at an elevation ol
nearly 8,000 feet above sea level, and
was accidentally discovered about a
year ago by Meesrs. Anglo and Brown,
the latter being a "pocket hunter" of
experiejee. A small piece of rich float
was found, and in tracing it up almost
the first srtoke of the pick into the
ground uncovered a streak of very rich
quartz and located the claim for them.
Thoy took ont several thousand dollars
in gold last year before the snows of
winter drove them off the ojaira, the
old being pounded out in a hand mor
tar. This season it is estimated that
the lucky miners have taken out not
less than $20,000 in like manner, and
how long their lead will last no one
pretends to know.
They have run a cut into tb moun
tain for a short distance and have only
followed the pay streak thus far to a
depth of 20 feet. The gold is found in
a porphyry formation or ledge which
lies on the bedrock and pitches into
the mountain at a considerable angle.
The find has lod to a large number of
prospectors trying to duplicate it in
the same section, but aa yet without
success.

SALEM MILL BURNED.
Lou aa
Building and Oraln About
10,000.
Salem, Or., Sept. 25. The mill and
elevator warehouse of the Salem Flour
ing Mil 1b Company, located at the
corner of Commercial and Trade streets,
were destroyed by fire at 4 o'clock this
morning. The total loss is about
$150,000, a large part of which will
fall on farmers who had grain stored
at the mills. There was over 125,000
bushels of wheat stored in the build
ings, only about 25,000 bushelB of
which belonged to the mill company.
The fire was caused by adunt explo
sion near the cleaners on the third floor
of the mill, and it spread rapidly.
The insurance on the mill company's
buildings and machinery, which are
almost a total loss, is about $60,000,
while their value is placed at about
$75,000. Only about 80,000 bushels
of the stored grain was insured, so the
loss to the owners is great. Consider
able of the grain not damaged by water,
it ia thought, can be cleaned and sold
for about half price, and the mill coin
pany will take immediate steps to save
all that possibly can be saved.
The mill, which wag run as an in
dependent concern by men interested
in the Portland flouring mills, may
never be rebuilt, aa the Portland Flour
ing Mills Company owns another mill
in Salem. The fire wag one of tha
largest ever seen In Salem.
OUR HEAD IS TURNED.
Cay Gold win Bmlth, Who Thinks
Dawaj Ia Ovaraatlinatad.
Toronto, Ont., Sept. 25. Goldwin
Smith, writing in a local paper, says:
"Nothing could show the extent to
which the head of Columbia has been
turned by the war more than her ador
ation of the hero Dewey. What did
tha hero Dewey and his comrades do?
They gat in almost perfect safety and
destroyed at long range a line of help
less tubs, with some hundreds of the
poor Spaniards who manned them,
and who alone had any opportunity of
showing heroism on the occasion. So
perfectly secure did the Americans feel
that they adjourned to breakfast in the
middle of their sport. There was
among them a single casualty, and had
they all gone tiger hunting one casual
ty at least probably would have oc
curred. "For this, however, Dewey, is de
clared to be the equal of the great sea
men who conquered In the terrible days
of Aboukir, Copenhagen, Trafalgar. If
he were so inclined he might probably
be elected president ot the United
States.
"Canada cannot possibly take part
in the celebration of Dewey's triumphs
without evidence of discourtesy toward
Spain, a friendly nation, which haa
done Canada no wrong. Spain, let it
be remembered, though deprived of her
possessions In this hemisphere, is still
a Mediterranean power, decayed at
present, but capable of restoration.
The British government will hardly
thank the Canadian government for
making her an implacable enemy."
HOOTED OFF THE PLATFORM.
Jerry Slmpaon'a Praia of Agulnaldo
Wa Too Much for HI Hearer.
Kansas City, Sept. 25. A dispatch
to the Journal from Wichita, Kan.,
says:
Ex-Congressman Jeny Simpson was
hooted off the platform here this even
ing while addressing a local O. A. R.
reunion. Mr. Simpson said:
"I glory in the spunk of Aguinaldo's
men. They are simply fighting to re
gain the land the Catholics took from
them. A local paper hag asked: 'Who
Is John Brown's soul marching with
Otis or Agulnaldo?' I believe John
Brown's soul is marching with Agul
naldo."
Mr. Sipmson said in substance that
he would rather be with Agulnaldo
than with General Otis. An old sol
dier in the audience rose and saidthat
the speech was drifting too much into
politics. This was applauded and
greeted with cries of "Throw himoutl"
and "Kick Simpson off the platform I"
Men and women arose and hissed, and
the men kept crying, "Put him out!"
Simpson appealed to the crowd to sit
town. "I am coming to my perora
tion," he said, although he had been
speaking only 16 minutes. Cries came,
"Take your peroration to Aguinaldo."
Simpson attempted to go on, but no
one could hear him 10 feet away. The
band struck np The Star Spangled
Banner," and Mr. Simpson left the
platform. His retirement was greeted
with prolonged cheers.
Edmonton Relief Expedition.
Seattle, Sept. 25. Moved at last by
the appeals of the relatives and friends
of the misguided men, so many of

man endurance, Canadian officials have

Edmonton trail route. The rescuers
left Dawson early in September. It is

San Francisco, Sept. 25. The Chron
icle says: Definite aud reliable infor
mation sent to the Chronicle from the
East sets at rest the rumors about the
sale of the Crocker holdings of South
