THE ELDER RETURNS.
The Officers Bring the Latest Newi
From the North.
Astoria, Or., Aug. 16. The O. R. &
N. Co. 's steamer George W. Elder ar
rived tonight from Dyea, after a very
pleasant trip down. She brought "ac
commodation" mail, and one passenger.
The offioers of the steamer gave the
latest news from the north.
The passage up was delightful. The
ocean all the way was as smooth as a
mill vjond. ind very few ot the rassen
gers we4e.srck. The livestock fared ex
tremely well. Not one animal was in
jured In the slightest, and all were
landed in safety.
When the Elder arrived at Skaguay
bay men immediately came aboard and
offered fabulous prices for horses. ' An
imals such as are being canned at Linn'
ton ars selling for from $600 to $700,
but none could be purohased from the
KlHr's nnssenffers. One of the rjassen
gers had a large bull, for which he was
offered $600. Tne offer was refused.
There is plenty, of grass to feed the
livestock,, and horses are greatly in de
mand. . . , ' , ! .
The men were charged 25 cents per
100 pounds to have their luggage taken
ashore. All the baggage was landed
; safely. The i ate for taking stuff over
Chilkoot pass is 26 cents a pound.
', The officers state that there is abso
lutely no truth in the reports that men
are selling their outfits at Dyea. . They
say that every one who can possibly get
over the passes is going. The weather
at Dyea is all that oould , be desired,
and but little diffloulty will be experi
enced in making the trip. .
. The most important item of news
brought by the Elder is to the effect
that White pass : is being placed in a
passable condition. One hundred mi
ners, who were delayed by the condi
tion of the road, banded and agreed to
corduroy the road. Timber is plentiful
in the vicinity, and the work should
shortly be oompleted. When this is
done horses can easily be taken over the
trail. - - i
Two drownings and a mining-camp
incident resultant occurrred at Dyea.
On August 8, Dwight Fowler, of Seat
tle, lost his life. He was carryings
load on his back and parcels in each
hand over a log, when he slipped and
fell into the Skaguay river. Fowler is
said to be the son of well-known Seat
tle people. ... .
The other fatality occurred August 6.
Thomas Wall, of N; nainio, while at
tempting to ford Dyea river on a pack
horse, was lost. He left a wife and
three children in Kanaimo, who are in
destitute circumstances. - . . .
Two men named Young and Cleve
land are engaged in packing near where
the drownine ooourred. and recovered
the bodies. They took them to Dyea,
where they demanded $10 for their
services. The citizens immediately
called a mass meeting and served no
notice on one of the men 'to leave town
within 24 lionrs. He applied for pas
sage on the Elder to Juneau, Dut as she
was not bound for that port, he was
compelled to leave town until he could
secure transportation.
The day the steamer left citizens call
ed another meeting for the purpose of
considering the advisability of serving
a like notice on 'the other man.' The
partners were making from $200 to $300
a week eaoh, carrying freight, but
their demand for pay for bringing in
the bodies of the men has lost them
fortunes.
On August 8 a man was shot and
IrillaH fnr etnnlinff freight, on ChilkOot
pass. One of the men in charge of a
pack train caught him in the act, and
his life was the penalty. His name
could not be learned by the officers or
passengers of the Elder.
At Dyea, according to a letter re
ceived from C. R. Scovey, of this city,
there is a scarcity of provisions; The
writer says that the stores were crowd-,
ed, and that all the flour was sold.
There will be no difficulty in securing
more. ' The demand was created by
men who left with money instead of
provisions. . . '
There was but one returning passen
ger. Theodore Lang, who sailed on the
Elder, was attacked with rheumatism

ttnu lurueu to Ben jus uului aiiu icluiii.
The passage down was made in good
time, the steamer being but 71 hours
from Sitka. She left up for Portland
at 7:15 tonight.
The route from Skaguay via White
pass is more level and easier traveling,
though 25 miles farther. But the pros
pector is landed on Lake Bennet, the
second lake above Linderman, where
travelers Dy vjhukooi pass are lanueu.
Besides, there is plenty of timber on
Bennet to build boats, While . there is
none on Linderman. V '
Every day, hundreds are arriving
there, and scows and 'small steamers
are making fortunes in lightering goods
from steamers. ' f
Letters from Astorinns who went on
the Elder advise others not go this fall,
as they cannot get through except at
great expense and hardship. .
Top Notch for Wheat.
Walla Walla, Aug. 16. The top
notch wheat market for the season was
reached today. The market opened
firm at 75 cents for bluestem, 78 cents
for club. Several lots were sold at
these figures, when the prioe jumped
up one cent and several thousand bush
els were sold for 76 cents This after
noon the price dropped back to 75
cents, at which figure it closed.
No More Tig Brandy. I '
San Francisco, Aug. 16.' Acting
Colloetor Thomas has retceived a rul
ing from Seoretary Gage, of the treas
ury, relating to the distillation of cer
tain fruits, particularly in California.
Last May the Tenny Fruit Packing
Company, of Fresno, ditilled some fig
brandy, but the treasury department
has decided that the distillation of figs
is illegal. The brandy in question
will be releasedbut hereafter the : law
will be strictly enforoed.
WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing;, Hopkins & Company's Review
, ' of Trade. '
There was a large and rapid advance
in the prices of wheat during the past
week with prospects of a higher range
of prioes the rest of the year. . Spot
wheat is difficult to get, even at a pre'
mium and . the demand is pressing for
old wheat; 1,945,000 bushels have been
taken in Chicago this week for prompt
and future shipment on foreign orders
the bulk of which was' taken at the
advance early in the week. ' ,
This general advance ij more the out
come of the hand-to-mouth consutap
tion of twelve months overtaking the
small stocks both here and in Europe,
as we have pointed out time and again,
than of short European crops now being
reaped. Prosperity is coming, in the
fact that tho European consumer is pay
ing the American farmer a better price
than the 'majority of speculators pufl
upon the wheat.. The actual value o
the new crop is 20 cents higher than
the professional short seller made it iri
June, when they were selling Septem
ber freely at 68 cents, and the farmer
is to be congra ulated that this advance
comes before the grain leaves his hands.
And so long as the legitimate demand
keeps the spot wheat at a premium, no
combination or monopoly can profitably
depress the futures, as the experiences
of the past six months have proved.
So, for the near future, it will be safe
to buy wheat on each decline, as the
speculative market is broadening and
outside buying increasing, and will in
crease as the state of the oountry im
proves. . Although the sensational press tried
to show local manipulation in July de
livery, Chicago is still the lowest mar
ket in the country, with spot wheat
this week 10 cents over the highest
prioe in July, and we would have seen
a muoh higher prioe during this month
had not holders of wheat been fright
ened in June by sensational rumors of
large receipts; dow thecash demand far
exceeds, in proportion, the speculative
demand. As in the May and July de
liveries, the September speculative
prioe is steadily advancing to the price
of the spot wheat, which, as in those
months, will finally fix the value in the
latter end of this month. -
We arenow having large receipts of
wheat from an ample crop of fine qual
ity this week 5,343,406 bushels at the
nine primary markets, compared with
8,217,382 bushels for the same last year.

Spread the ropes under them so they

make a frame, h, six feet square, light
and strong enough to support 700
pounds of hay. On two sides of this
frame are ropes each 14 feet long with
the. ends passed down through holes
bored in the corners of the frame and
knotted. Pile the hay on the frame,
bring the ropes together over It and at
tach them to the pulley by another S
shaped iron. Wind up until you can
hang It on the rope attached to scales,
letting the 'weight hang on them. A

Boarding Trains in Motion.
" Passengers are to have an opportunity
to board and leave trains which are in
motion at the Paris exposition of 1900
by means of a new system devised by
a French civil engineer. The idea was
suggested by tne moving sidewalk at
the world's fair. The outer circumfer
ence of a circular platform is to travel
at the same fate as the passing train.
There will be no danger upon entering
the platform from a staircase in the
center, where the speed ' is compara
tively low. In advanc'ng toward the
edge the increase is gradual, and antici
pated. The station attendant over
looks the entire platform from a tower
in the center, and should there be a
heavy crowd . he causes the train, by
means of switches, to run around the
station, allowing ample time to dis
charge and take On all passengers. : It
is' proposed to work trains and plat
forms at a speed of 1 miles an hour.

A tendency to rheumatism Is undoubtedly
Inherited. Unlike many other legacies, it re

of checking this tendency, or of removing In

the blood or not, is to resort to Jlostetter's
Stomach Bitters as soon as the premonitory
twinges are felt. Nullifying the influences of
cold, exposure and fatigue, the Bitters not only
fortifies the system against their hurtful con
sequences, but subjugates malaria, liver and

quietude. ; . , - ;.. .. t.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CIJRxuD
by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion ot the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian tube. When this tube gets Inflam
ed you have a rumbling sound or Irrf !rfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed d&ness
is the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be 'destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an Inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
