Rumors in the Air at
Washington.
BELIEIE BLOOD'S BEEN SHED
Democrats Still Have No Qaornm
iu the House.
PROPOSITION OF TDE POPDLISTS
To Supply a Quorum If Their
Demands Are Hot.
Hawaiian News.
Washington, Jan. 6. The State
department is inclined to discredit the
Auckland despatch to the Associated
Press of last night saying that Minister
Willis bad made a demand on the
Provisional Government of Hawaii to
abdicate in favor of the Queen, on the
ground that such action is dtrectly
contrary to instructions sent by the
Corwlu and received by Wlllla Dec. 11,
nearly two months before the date of
Auckland advices. There is intense
anxiety however in Congressional cir
cles and all sorts of humors afloat that
blood has already been spilled at
Honolulu.
A Tariff Caucus.
Washington, Jan. 5. Chairman
Holman, of the house Democratic cau
cus, had issued a call for a caucus to
night at 7 o'clock. Forty-seven Demo
crats slgued the request for the call.
The purpose of the call is toconsldT
the merits of the tariff bill. This is ac
cepted as the first open demonstration
of opposition to the bill in its present
form. No member of the ways and
means committee signed the call. The
internal reveauo feature and income
tax will receive consideration. Chair
man Wilson's associates express a will
ingness to go into the caucus. Wilson
said his understanding is that the cus
toms features and all the other sections
of the bill will be considered. Many
Democrats deprecate a caucus, as they
see In it the prospects of a disagreeable
clash within the party.
no quorum.
The house opened in an uproar,
The Democrats lacked eight of having
a quorum at one o'clock this afternoon.
Committee ou rules decided to
report a rule for the final
voto on the tarlft bill, January
25th. Several absentees are expected
on the afternoon trains and it has been
decided to continue to tight for an hour
or two at least, instead of adjourning
to go into caucus in the hope that ar
rivals will give a quorum.
Intha Home.
The Democrats still laoked 12 votes of
a quorum at 3 p. m. Populists who re
frained from voting say they do so be
cause they want more time for debate.
They insist on having all next week
for general debate. They have in
formed the Democrats that they will
furnish a quorum If their demands are
granted.

A Oilt Edgo Absconder.
Chicago, Jan, 3. Walter H. Camp
bell, a promoter, came to Chicago with
the world's fair wave aud floated away
with a lot of money dishonestly ob
tained. It is said he got away with be
tween $100,000 and (150,000 in cash.
Campbell represented himself as a mll
l'oualro from California. He took a
lively interest in the Boston company
that bad an electrical forging exhibit at
the fair. Campbell declared that the
process of forging by electricity was
destined to make fabulous wealth for
the men controlling the patent. He
set about securing the rights for Illinois
and organizing a stock company to es
tablish a plant in Chicago. A stock
company was organized with a capital
of $2,000,dop. Ie was known as the
Illinois Electrical Forging Company.
Campbell" was the president in fact, he
was the whole concern. All the money
was turned over to him, Campbell,
visited his old home at Lewiston, III.,
where, it is said, he secured $116,000 in
notes from Henry Phtlps, a banker, and
$45,000 in cash from a wealthy farmer.
Campbell wanted, to get that money,
and he went to the West Pullman Land
Company nnd negotiated for a big
building that bad been erected by a
watch company but was never occupied .
To secure an option on this property,
Campbell put up $5000 in cash in lieu
of a bond. An office was established
IntheTitlods Trust building aud the
promoter sold that stock. One day
Campbell went 'to see the Boston com
pany about getting the machinery.' He
never came back.
SOME OREGON CONTEST.
Mitchell and Dolph Will Oppose
Eastern Men for Indian
Agents.
Washington, Jan. 5. There will
be another contest- in the senate over
the confirmation of appointees from
Eastern states as Indian agents in the
West. The fight will open with Ore
gon appointments, aud both Djlph
and Mitchell have said they intend to
object to Beudlng'i.bjipolntees-from the
East and South into their state. It is
belieyed all western men will support
them, and it is claimed by those who
support the administration in the mat
ter that Indian agencies are purely un
der federal control, and that appointees
cau be sent from any section of the
country to government agencies.
RINGING RESOLUTIONS.
At a meeting of the Portland oham
berof commerce the following resolu
tions were prepared, but have not yet
been adepted:
Whereas, On Christmas day Sylves
ter Pen noyer, governor of Oregon, ad
dressed an open letter to the president
of the United States, in which he said:
'Today Is the Hist Christmas iu the
biBtory of Oregon when moie than two
thirds of its people are out of employ
ment, and more than one-third with
out sufficient means of support;' nnd
'the debtors are powerless to avoid the
seizure of their property aud their
homes to satisfy, at a small per centage
of their value, the claims of creditors.'
Now, therefore, as these statements
have been given widespread distribu
tion by the American Press, and buy
ing emanated from the governor, the
highest official of the state, may be
j taken by those unacquainted with
me couuuious exiauu in uregon
as authentic, and thus do an in
jury wholly untimely and unwarranted
in every particular, but which, never
theless, would be paralyzing In its ef
fects and influence alike upon the pro.
ducing, manufacturing, commercial
and financial interests of the state, and,
Whereas, Investigation throughout
the state, except Portland, docs not
show any material percentage of un
employed or destitute, and investiga
tion in the city of Portland, the largest
center of population in the Pacltlo
Northwest, as made by the Bradstreet
Commercial Agency, gives 1500 wage
earners as unemployed and 2000 de
pendent upon them; also the city board
of charities gives as a result of their in
vestigation not to exceed 1000 as partly
destitute, and,
Resolved, by the chamber of com
merce of Portland, Or., In special ses
sion assembled, that, In defense of the
fair name of our state, we declare Ore
eon has not yet become the exclusive
home of poverty nnd paupers, and that
we condemn the statements of the gov
ernor and brand them an -erroneous,
misleading, injurious and not war
ranted nor substantiated In any man
ner by the facts or conditions In any
section of the stale or throughout the
8tateasa whole.
Whkhkab, the resultof investigation
shows Portland has In reality the third
lowest percentage of unemployed and
destitute of 50 clllw from various mo
tions of the United States as publiohed
by Bradstreel's on Dec. 23, 1803: and,
Wheukas, In the matter of the Ini-
Filled persecution of debtor by cred
tors in the statement of the Kovernor,
Inquiry has developed the f.iet that
the records of tlii courts of the state
show a comparatively leu percentage
of forced collections and foreclosures
than at any previous time la
the history of the tttate; therefore b It
Resolved, that these resolutions be
given our delegation iu congress for
presentation to the president of the
United States aud also to the Associa
ted Press for general publication.
COLD WAVJ3 CONTINUES.
All Europe Suffering from the Coldest
Weather Known.
London, Jan. 5. The severe cold
continues throughout Great Britain.
The temperature in many places is the
lowest ever known, and though the
thermometer registers 5 to 10 abovo
zero, the Buffering is as great as at
20 below in the United States.
People are entirely unprepared for It,
and suffering among poor is intense.
Many deaths havo occurred from ex
posure, and a heavy snow storm pre
vails. Reports from Spain say the most in
tense cold- prevails there. At Burges
several people were frozen to death.
Suow is still falling and the cold is in
creasing. The same conditions also
prevail in Russia.
Young Recruits.
Lima, Peru, Jan. 5. Tho govern
ment authorities here are going to
great lengths in their efforts to levy
soldiers to serve in the regular army.
Even boys 12 years old have been
salzed in the streets by recruiting de
tails and dragged to tho barracks, where
they are forced to enter the ranks.
Those classes of citizens who have been
exempt from forced enlistment do not
escape at this time, but even firemen
aud national guardsmen are made to
join the regular forces. It was Impos
sible to bury some corpses which had
been taken to the cemeteries for inter
ment Tuesday, as the gravediggers em
ployed at these places had been forcibly
taken away from their work, and with
out a moment's warning hustled oil to
become soldiers.
Closing India's Mints.
London, Jan. 5. The Pall Mall Ga
zette publishes an interview with Sir
James Mackay, late president of the
Indian Currency Association. Ho says:
"I have not yet had time to judge If
ttie closing of the mints is a success.
Speculation led to abnormal importa
tions of silver. The banks imported
largely of coin In order to be ready to
meet bids already lodged by specu
lators who were hoping for u rise. Iu
consequence, there were fewer bills
than usual on the market, aud specu
lators were compelled to buy sterling
and largely cover their sales. This will
be entirely stopped shortly, aud there
is no doubt tho measure will eventually
be a suece."
Bank of England.
London, Jan. 5. Tho statement of
the Bank of England: Bullion increase
during the week, 301,077; reserve, in
crease 61,000; circulation, increase

A Sad Change.
London, Jan. 5. Tho Westminster
Quzette, referring to tho annual report
of Carlisle, says it seems clear that the
United States will shortly raise a loan.
It adds that the financial position of
the United States has changed strange
ly since a few years ago when tho gov
ernment scarcely knew how to dispose
of the enormous annual surplus.
A King's Millions.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Tho Income Tax.
New Youk, Jan. 6. Tho Commer
cial Advertiser's Washington special
says that the incomo tax Is almost cer
tain to be knocked out of the Wilson
bill by tho senate If retained by the
house. If the Republicans will vote
with tho Eastern Democrats In the
bouse, the chances aro the proposition
will never reach the senate. The
Democrats who want to fight against
tho ways and means commltte on this
proposition have been making au esti
mate of their strength, nnd have come
to the conclusion the committee cau bo
defeated in the house if the Republicans
will cast practically a solid vote against
the Income tax. It is proposed to hold
meetings of tho Eastern delegations
and make a thorough cauvass of tho
matter, uueor the most influential
Southern men in the houso said today
that, as he figured, tho Republicans
would be almost solidly opposed to the
lucome tax, tho Democrats of the East
will oppose it almost to a man, nnd
there will be a serious division among
tho Democrats of tho South and West
on tho question, If the opposition can
be brought to act together, tho commit
tee will be defeated.
A Crook Caught.
Seattle, Jan. 5. W. M. Parker,
wanted at Salem, Or., on a charge of
obtaining money under false pretenses,

houso of Rlchet, Roberts & Kern of
Portland. While so engaged he drew
a sight draft upon the firm, which ho
cashed at Salem upon the strength
of the Indorsement of M. P. Town
send. The draft was int honored
by Ricbet, Roberts & Kern, and In
consequence Townsend had to make
good the money ndynucod. When
Parker heard of this ho fled from the
state, aud since ho arrived at Ballard
has gone under an assumed name. He

Wine Growers' Kick
Han Fra.vcisoo, Jan. 6. In the
Wilson bill, as reported to the house by
the ways aud man committee, the
duly on still wines is fixed at 60 cents
a gallon In wo d; but since the bll was
Bakincr
Powder
so reported an additional clause has
been Insorted to the effect that the duty
on still wines shall in no case exceed
100 per cont of tho invoice value of the
goods. This clause practically kills the
tariff so far as It might be beneficial to
California wine producers. Under
such a provision It is possible to deliver
French wines (which come into compe
tition with California "vln ordinaire")
at 18 cents a gallon in New York;
whereas the least figure nt which Cali
fornia produota can be sold for there is
22 cents; and oven at this prlco there is
only a soant marirln for the nroducer.

Union Pacific Moneys.
Portland, Or., The reason given
here for the instructions to the Union
Paclflo agents to send all remittance to
the First National Bank, of this city,

the Union Paclflo roceivors to make a

Omaha this morning that tho Oregon
railway and navigation company had
demanded a separate accounting with
tho Union Pacific, preparatory to the
commencement af a suit looking to the
appointment of a receiver for the north

failed to confirm tho report, although a
soparato accouut of net earnings Is being
kept to satisfy tho second mortgage
bond holders. Not the least fear Is ex
pressed at headquarters that tbo Ore

will follow in the footsteps of the Gulf
