VIOLATU RILES OP WAR.
The Japanea War Office Pubilahes
Chart; Against Rusilaaa.
Tokio, July 20. The Japanese war
ofllce has made public a statement
charging the Russians with violation
of recognised rules of warfare. The
statement alleges that ou two occasions
the white flag has Wen violated; that
once a Rusnian column flied persistent
ly on a field hospital where the Red
Cross flag was flying conspicuously,
thus compelling the Japanese to remove
the hospital amidst great danger,
Twice, it Is alleged, the Russians
fired on the men of the Japanese hos
pital corps, although their badges could
readily he distinguished. On three oc
casion Japanese have been atahlwd,
slashed and mutilated. On one occa
sion the Russians are declared to have
stolen cattle and horses from noncom
batanta and to have violated women.
It is also claimed that numerous cases
can be cited where the Russians have
wantonly fired on the Japanese
wounded and that they have refused to
preiuit parties who were succoring the
wounded on both sides to go unmolest
ed. These charges are made by General
Oku ami it Is stated that further
charges will be made, growing out of
the experiences of General Kuroki's
army.
In explaining the publication of
these charges, the Japaanese general
staff states that they had no desire to
take such action, but in view of Rus
sia's charges that thy made through
the French para there was rothing
else left for them to do.
HELD UP BY SHOT.
Russian Steamer Stops British Vessel In
the Red 5ea.
London, July 20. A dipsatch from
Aden to the Daily Mail says that the
captain of the British steamer Waipara
reports that the Russian volunteer
steamer St. Petersburg signalled him
to stop by firing ucross the bows of his
vessel on July 15, while 20 miles off
Jetiel Zugur, in the Red sea.
The Russians examined the papers
of the Waipara and declared they
would hold his ship as a prize. The
captain protested, and was taken on
board the St. Petersburg, where he
gave the Russian officers a guarantee
that there were neither arms nor am
munition on hoard twj .Waipara destin
ed for Japan. The vessel was detained
for four hours and was then allowed to
proceed.
The captain confirms the report that
the Peninsular & Oriental company's
steamer Malaica was seized in the Red
sea July 16 by the St. Petersburg on
the ground that she carried arms and
ammunition of war for the. Japanese
government. BREAK OP A OREAT DAM.
Pennsylvania Valley Flooded and
Much
Property Destroyed.
Keottdale, Pa., July 20. With the
roar of Niagara, the new reservoir of
the Citizens' Water compuany burst at
midnight and more than 300,000,000
gallons of water rushed down the val
ley, sweeping buildings in its path.
It was discovered about 9 o'clock
that the dum was in danger of break
ing and messengers were hastily sent
through the valley to warn the people.
Hundreds of lives were thus saved, for
a few hours later tho whole valley was
under water.
The damage to the machinery and
reservoir alone will amount to at least
$50,000. When the torrent swept
down upon the valley, Duildinga were
torn from their foundations and carried
on the crest of the great wave line so
many washtubs. Crops valued at
thousands of dollars were completely
wiped out.
Profit From a Volcano.
Mexico City, July 20. The formal
transfer of the volcano Popocatepetl
to New York capitalists will be com
pleted this week. The Inter-Ocean
railway will take the sulphur from the
volcano to Vera Cruz. It is believed
that sulphur' can be landed at New
York for $48 per ton (gold), which
would make the sulphur an effective
competitor of the Italian article. The
reorganization Is interpreted, here to
mean that the German directors were
not willing to Bupport the Standard in
fighting the other oil interests.
Hemmed In By Big Fire.
Oroville, Cal., July 20. Fire at the
Bella View mine, near La Porte, today
destroyed the mill, engine room and
other buildings close to the mouth of
the big tunnel. A hugo pile of timber
lay close to the mouth of the tunnel
and this caught on fire. Four men
were working . in the tunnei when the
fire broke out and fears are entertained
for their safety, as the tunnel is strong
ly timbered and it is thought theBe
timbers will catch fire from the huge
fire now blazing.
Bandits Raid at Will.
Tangier, July . 20. The mountain
tribes, apparently satisfied that they
have nothing to fear from the covern-
;aen, are looting the entire countryside

RUSSIA TOO BOLD
STOPPING OF STEAMERS IN THE RED
SEA MUST CEASE.
Orcat Britain Orders Fleet of War Ves
sel to Sctbe of TroubU-FletU Be
lag Moboilzed-Czar May Find He
Cannot Use the Dardanelles for Ml
Ships Again.
London, July 20. Two naval orders
were Issued today by the British ad
miralty, which are believed to indicate
a determination on the part of Great
Britain to protect British shipping
from acts of aggression at the bands of
the Russian navy.
The first order directs the Mediter
ranean fleet to sail at once from Gib
ralter and proceed to Alexandria.
Egypt, near the mouth of the Suei
canal.
The second order directs two of the
fastest British armored cruisers to pro
ceed through the canal and take up
stations in the Red sea at points where
several British ships have been held up
the last few days by the vessels of the
Russian volunteer squadron.
While the fact that these orders were
IssueJ was carefully guarded, and no
public statement of their scope is pro
curable, there is no doubt that the
British foreign office has decided that
the time has come to act promptly in
protecting British shipping, and to put
an end to any aggression on the part of
the Russian cruisers. Well informed
naval ollkers believe that the dispatch
of this powerful Mediterranean fleet to
the vicnity of the Red sea, and the sta
tioning of two of the crack vessels of
the squadron directly in at the points
where the Russians are cairying things
with a high hand, rr.eanB that no furth
er molestation of vessels flying the
British flag will be permitted.
LOST 1,000 MEN.
Russians Attack Japanese at Mo
Tien
Pasa and art Repulsed.
St. Petersburg, July 20. General
Kuropatkin reports that Lieutenant
General Count Keller lost over 1,000
killed or wounded in the attack on Mo
Tien pass, July 17.
,ine fallowing auqvucu It om uenerai
kuropagtin to the emperor, dated July
17, "on our Eastern front," was given
out tonight:
"After the occupation bv General
Kurcki's army of the passes in the Fen-
shui mountain chain, our information
concerning his disposition was, in gen
eral, inadequate.
"According to some reports his army
had been reinforced and bad even ex
tended his forces toward Saimateza.
Other reports said that a displacement
of his troops had been made in the di -
rection of Ta pass and Siuyjen. There
were even indications that Kuroki had
transferred his headquarters crom Tsk
hahekanan to Touinpu.
At about 6 :30 on the mornins of
July 17, the Japanese, in considerable
strength, and with numerous guns, oc
cupied Wa Fankwan pass, and on the
mountainous bluffs to the south, on
the flank of General Kaetalinfiky's col
umn, from this position and trom
the crest of the mountains to tb east
of the heights surmounted by the tem
ple, the enemy directed a very heavy
rifle and artillery fire.
."General Kashtahnsky advanced to
occupy the bluffs, sending forward at
once one and then three battalions, but
the attempt failed, notwithstanding
the support given by the horse moun
tain battery, as our field guns could
not be brought into action on account
of the nature of the ground.
Our losses have not yet tteen exact
ly ascertained, but General Keller re
ports that they exceed 1,000.
Two More Steamers Held Up.
London, July 20. The Daily Mail's
correspondent at Aden says that the
British steameis Woodcock and Dal
matia were held up by the Russians in
the Red sea and detained for three
hours. The correspondent says the
captain of the Russian volunteer fleet
steamer St. Petersburg has notified the
British residents at Aden to wire the
British consul at Suez and Port Said
that he would seize any British steam
ers bound for the Far East, if the con
tents of their packages were not clearly
shown on their manifests.
To Prevent Mosquito Invasion.
Washington, July 20. General
Davis, governor general of the Panama
canal strip, has advised the Panama
canal commission that he wants 100,
000 yards of wire gauze to prevent mos
quito invasion in the zone. General
Davis says that this will be perhaps
the largest order for mosquito netting
ever given. He recommends the use of
Bteel wire screens not coarser than 17
meBheB to the square inch, galvanized.
Ammunition Factory for Ottawa.
Ottawa, July 20. Sir Iredeiick Bor
den, minister of militia, has underway
a contract with the English firm, of
which Sir William Armstrong is head,
for the construction of an ammunition
factory in Ottawa, capable of turning
out 20,000,000 rounds of ammunition
a year.
SAVED LIAO YA.NQ.
Qeneral Zassalltch'a Meat at the Yalu
Was In Name Only.
St. Petersburg, July 19. Experts
who recently were inclined to criticise
General Kuropatkln'e management of
'flairs in the Far East declare, as the
situation develops, that bis strategies
have proved, so far, beyond reproach.
He lias successfully tided over a press
ing danger how pressing only those in
close touch with the Far East realize.
His apparent mistakes, like the pro
longed resistance offered by Lieutenant
General Zassali'ch on the Yalu, turn
out to be act of the highest military
Judgment.
General Kuropatkin then had so few
and such poor troops at Liao Vang
that the Japanese would have had an
easy task to crush the main force of the
Russians had they been permitted to
cross the Yalu without severe punish
ment, and the thousands lost by Zas
salitch practically saved Liao Yang.
Zasnalitch, until disgraced, occupied an
important staff position.
(ieneral Baron Stakelberg'e march,
which also was criticised, is now ad
mitted to hae been necessary. The ru
diments of war are that the army
should be in constant touch with the
enemy, otherwise it wculd be impos
sible to know the strength of its op
ponents or to be informed of their
movements.
. General Stakelberg'e march was a
reconnaissance on a grand scale, and
not only enabled General Kuropatkin
to ascertain the enemy's strength and
disposition, but materially disturbed
uie Japanese plans relative to the siege
of Port Arthur, gradually drawing the
bulk of the Japanese army to follow
the retreating column, and thus dis
tracting attention from the vulnerable
spot between Lia Yang and Mukden.
Meanwhile the men at Kuropatkin's
headquarters are improving. Fifty
thousand of the best troops from Eu
ropean Russia have reached Liao Yang
within a month, and if the Russian
commander in chief should now choose
to accept a battle he will be able to in
flict a heavy blow. All Puesia is look
ing forward with confidence to the is
sue of the fight.
MAY BE AT MERCY OP RUSSIANS.
fa)atieM Transports Trapped, M
Hostile
Fleet Has Reached Kaicbou.
' St. Petersburg, July 19. Reliable
reports from Ta Tche Kiao this after
noon brought the etartlingannouncment
of the presence of Russian warships off
Kaicbou, which they are said to be
bombarding, and of the arrival of Japan
ese transports and torpedo boats off the
port of Niu Cbwang.
The admiralty waB unable to confirm
or deny either report, not having re
ceived any communication from Rear
Admiral Withoeft, but the admirals
were generally not inclined to credit
ttem. If true, it would mean that
Admiral Withoeft has got the Japanese
transports at his mercy. In this case,
Admiral Togo would hasten to their
rescue and engage the Russians. This
may also explain the absence of positive
news of the Japanese occupation of the
port of Niu Chwang and the cautious
approach of General Oku's column.
CHINA MUCH DISTURBED.
France Will Send Troops Unless the
Re-
bclllon Is Suppressed.
Tien Tsin, July 19. The Chinese
minister at Tokio has telegraphed the
Wai Wou Pou, the Chinese ministery
of foreign affairs, that the Japanese
government has presented a scheme for
the administration of Manchuria, the
principal clause of which is that the
Japanese will govern the province with
the number of Chinese troops now in
the country
Information has been received here
that unless China suppresses the re
bellion in the province of Kwangsi, the
French government has threatened to
land troops and put it down. The
Chinese government ia much perturbed
in conequence.
A feeling pievails in Tien Tsin that
the Japanese have suffered a terrible
reverse at Port Arthur. If they have
not, it is thought, that the Japanese
government would have contradicted
the reported disaster days ago.
Russian Ships Cruising In Red Sea.
Island of Perim, Straits of Bab-el-Mandeb,
July 19. The American mis
sionary vessel, Morning Star, from
Boston, arrived here today, and reports
that yesterday she passed, between
Jabel-Teir and Jabel Zugur, islands in
the Red eea, a Russian volunteer fleet
steamer, flying the naval flag, bound
north. The Morning Star sighted at
dusk, off Jabel-Zugur. another cruiser,
with three funnels and two masts, and
at midnight she sighted a torpedo boat.
Both these vessels were supposed to be
cruising.
In Walt for Russian Ships.
Odessa, Russia, July 19. The Rus
eian steamer Trouvor, which has ar
rivea cere irom the Persian gulf, says
the English are persistently spreading
rumors to the effect that six armed
a
Japanese mercnantmen are lying in
wait for Russian ships in the Red sea
and Persian gulf.
HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
LINN FARMERS HIT HARD.
Late Spring and Long Dry Spell Have
Cost Much.
Albany Ram, which was genera)
over the Willamette valley last week,
came too late to be of great benefit to
farmers. Had the showers come two
weeke earlier, thousands of dollars
would have been saved for the farmers
of Linn county. As it is, the crops
are far below the average for Linn
county farmers, in many instances are
a total failure. The only benefit the
farming community will derive from
the rains will be in the way of gardens,
and the very late sown spring- oats, of
which there is a small acreage. -
For two months not a drop of rain
fell on the grain fields of the county.
This is drouth almost unprecedented
here. Its evil effect was aggravated
by the late spring rains. Farmers gen
erally were depending upon putting in
a greater acreage than usual in spring
sown grain, and the unusually bad
weather of the late winter seemed to
assure some good working days in the
early spring. Instead of this, the rain
held on until almost too late to plant
the spring grain at ail, and when good
weather did come, it developed into a
drouth.
The result is that' spring grain is
heading a few inches from the ground,
and much of it will not be bound at
all. That which ia threshed will
yield poorly. The beads are small and
very poorly filled. Nor is the fall sown
grain of its usual standard of excel
leuce. That part of the fall grain that
was sowed on low ground will be fair,
in some instances making three-fourths
of a crop rarely promising a full crop.
The hay crop has not averaged more
than half what it was in years gone
by. The haying season is about over,
and the general report is half a crop.
This will put farmers in J inn county
in hard circumstances this fall. Al
ready many of them are buying feed
for their stock, and but few will have
enough to last the winter through.
The price of feed is rising in the coun
ty, and the mills are selling it every
day to the farmers who were never
compelled to buy feed at any season
before. There are some who will have
to buy wheat for their own family con
sumption before the yeai ends.

Directory of Oregon Officials.
Salem Secretary of State Dunbar
has issued an official directory contain
ing the names, addresses and official
positions of the state and county offi
cers. The directory ia in the form of a
small pamphlet. Copies have been sent
to all ofnecra and others desiring copies
can secure them by applying to the sec
retary of state. In this publication the
political affiliation of each county offi
cer ia shown by a letter following the
name. Many of the states publish an
official "blue book" containing several
hundred pages and giving complete in
formation concerning the careers of
public officers. The pamphlet issued
by Oregon contains but 18 pages nd
contains the information most frequent
ly desired by persons transacting busi
ness with public officers.
Laborers Needed at Oregon City.
Oregon City Labor of all kinds was
never more plentiful nor were wages
ever better than they are in this city
this season. It seems impossible to
find available men to perform the
many improvements that are being
made. The Willamette Pulp & Paper
mills has been advertising for addition
al men to assist in the building of their
new mills where 200 laborers are al
ready employed. The management of
the local woolen mills is finding it next
to impossible to engage a sufficient
force of operatives.
Big Loss By the Frost.
Hillaboro Reports from all parts of
the county show that the frost last
week blighted vegetables on all beaver
dam lands, and it is estimated that
the loss by the freeze will reach $50,
000. One vegetable grower on the Tual
atin lowlands places his loss at $1,000.
Rich Strike In Bohemia.
Cottage Grove Two rich strikes are
reported just made in the Go'den Rule
and the Great Eastern. . These strikes
are in the Bohemia district. The ore
is oxidized, and very rich in free gold.
HUN1 PASS OVER CASCADES.
John Mlnto Believes Stock Can
Driven Over Mountains.
Be
Albany John Minto, of Calem, one
of the pioneers in the Santiam moun
tain district of Oregon, will in a few
days head a party from the end of the
Corvallis Eastern railroad, on the
north fork of the Santiam river, ia
quest of a shorter route to connect the
railroad with the Deschutes country in
Eastern Oregon.
Mr. Minto baa long entertained the
idea that there ia a pass through t,
Cascade mountains at this point where
u wouia oe possible to construct a trail
for driving stock overland from the
Eastern Oregon ranges to the eastern
end of the Corvallis A Eastern line.
He has interested Manager Edwin
Stone, of the Corvallis & Eastern, in
the work, and an effort to lay out the
route of the proposed route will be
made in a few days.
The old Minto trail, which extends
from the end of the old railroad grade
to the Eastern Oregon country, haa
been used for years by those who know
the short cuts that connect the western
and eastern parta of the state. But
Mr. Minto is satisfied that there is a
shorter cut yet. and that it could ha
made of great service to the stockraia.
ers of Eastern Oregon in shipping their
biock to marxet.
Developing Lime Deposit.
Roeeburg Mesers. Greenley and
Strand, of Portland, have 10 or 12 men
at work building a tramway and fur
nace for the manufacture of lime on
the farm of Hon. Plinn Cooper, seven
miles south of this city. They have
bonded 100 acres of land containing
rich limestone deposits and expect to
develop same on an extensive scale.
The modern continuous furnace system
win be used. A railway spur track.
about three miles long, will probably
be put in from the main line of the 8.
P. R. R., at Green's station.
Ore Specimens From Douglas.
Roseburz Hon. A. La Rov. of th
Oregon Information bureau, of Port
land, was cere last week and procured
a quantity of fine mineral exhibits from
this county, which will be placed in
