The senate committee on foreign relations agreed to report favorably on the arbitration treaty with amendments The committee, waa in session three hours and agreed by an uuaminious vote to recommend the ratification of j the treaty with amendments. All but two of these amendments are merely verbal. One of two which are essential strikes out the clause providing for the selection of KingOsoaf as umpire, leaving it to the two powers to select an umpire when" one is considered necessary. The other important amendment Is an addition to article one .of the treaty, and is as follows "No question which affects the for eign or domestic policy of either of the contracting parties, or the relations of either with any other state or power, by treaty or otherwise, shall bo subject to arbitration under this treaty,except by special agreement." This amendment was agreed to. The amendment eliminating the umpire clause was agreed to by vote of 9 to 1. The negative yote is un derstood to have been cast by Senator Gray of Deleware. The vote to report the treaty favor ably as amended was six to four. The six members who voted in the affirmative were; Sherman, Frye, Davis, Cullom, Dodge, Gray. Those whe voted in the negative: Morgan, Daniel, Cameron, Mills. The vote was on llnantlal, rather than political lines. Only one Democratic senator voted for the ratification, and-one Republican against it. All the votes for the 'jreaty were cast by men who opposed sliver In senate, and in the last campaign, while those in opposi tion, with the possible exception of Mills were cast by free-silver men. It is understosd that the silver a.en hold that the ratification of the treaty would have a tendency to render the United States subservient to Great Britain. An amendment declairlng inexplicit terms that the Alaskan boundary question should not be in cluded in the agreement for arbitra tion, was voted as unnecessary. The chairman was instructed to ask the senate to give the treacy consider ation at a9 early a day as practicable. It Is expected when it is taken up it will lead to a protracted debate in executive session. UNDEU DISCUSSION. The senate committee on foreign relations resumed consideration of the arbitration treaty between the United States and Great Britain, with a determination to finish be fore adjournment. It Is certain the treaty will bo amended before being reported to the senate. NO AGREEMENT. The house committee on Pacific roads considered the Harrison plan for a commission, but was unable to agree and adlourned until Wednesday. Revival Service.

Broiler Left His Wife to Elope ' With His Typewrit er. -'. Palaika, Flav Feb. 1. Hugo Boo- ii cdix angj pretty brunette named MadeltnpElder, of Indianapolis, were two of the principals In a sensational affair inf Justice Cox's court. Bone dlx was engaged as a stockbroker In New York, three years ago, and Mad eline Elder was employed as his type writer. -JThe two eloped, going to Indianapolis, where they remained until three months ago, although Mrs. Benedlxvas searching for them. Yesterday they were confronted by the deserted wife, who made an at tack on :MIss Elder, and would have Injurcdhcr severely if the sheriff had not interfered.

Willard Col- ton, aged '47,returncd home at 3 o'clock in the morning, and after a quarrel with htslfe,shot and killed her and himself.- Colton',Was a traveling salesman for a Chicago,8hoe house and drank heav ily, whlchflcd to frequent quarrels be tween himself and wife. They were married In 1892,both having been mar ried before. Mrs. Col ton had consid erable property. Colton disliked Mrs. Ilauslauch, his step-daughtcr,and her presence In the house undoubtedly led to the quarrel. It is believed Mrs. Ilauslach would have been, killed had she not escaped to the lower part of the house when the shooting began. Murderer Arrested. St. Lours, Fob. 1. Arthur Palmer, murdered Ills mother, brother and sister in Maniaroneck, Westchester county, N. Y., who was arrested at the Planters' house under the name of Jones, admitted his Identity, though denying the crime. Ills conversation shows that he is eilhcr crazy or sham ming. Jones- Well-Known. New .York, -Feb. 1. Latimer R. Jones Is well known in this city. In 1897 nineteen Indictments for forgery which were aliened to have netted him 8150,000 were found against him by the -grand Jury, and he was ar rested. He forfelted'SlO.OQO, ball and left the United States. The district attorney's office will take steps to have him brought here for trial. Jail Break. Jacksonville, Or. Feb. 1 .J. C. Hopkins and Frank Murphy, held for burglarizing the store of D. D. Mlnk ler, In Ashland, about three weeks ago, and who were confined in the county Jail hero awaiting the action of grand I Jury, broke Jail Saturday night, and have nob been-recaptured. They were confined In Jthe corridor, and could go in and out of the cells at nleasure. They succeeded in some way in remoylng the staple which held the lockbox, and as the lower bar was not locked, they had only to slldo it out of the way and the door was open. The staple was removed, it appears, by reaching the hand through a section of the latticework and slide ing a thin-piece of wood or ironjalong beneath the staple and lifting it up, when it would turn over and fall out of t".io bar, thus relieving i,t and leave it free to be drawn out, and the door opened without further hindrance. Once in the open Jail, It was an easy matter, with a heavy piece of Iron they had wrenched from the building, to burst open the outer door, and gain their llbtrtv. The work shows them to be experts of a dantrerouso charac ter. Sheriff Barns and several depu ties are In hot pursuit of them. Labor Exchange Ball. The ball given by the Labor Exchange,In their hall In Riverside addition, on Friday evening, was a success. About 80 per sons participated In tripping the light fantastic. Music was furnished by the Enger orchestra. RATE-WAR. S. P. Co. Wants Traffic. New Freight Tariff to Competitive Points. Poktland, Fcb.l The Southern Pa cific Company has Issued a new freight tariff reducing rates on lt,s East and WestSlde lines, and on tljo narrow gauge branch, where theycomo Into competition with the navigation com panies operating on the Willamette and Yamhill rivers. The now tariff will go Into effect today. Manager Koehler stated that the company was also considering the ad visability of making cut in passenger rates to meet the rtduced rates of the Joint passenger tariff issued by the Willamette and Yamhill river boat lines. The reduction In freight rates to Valley river points made by the Souther Pacific is a reply to the recently Issued river freight tariff of thoO R. &JX., Oregon Central & Eastern Railway Company, Oregon City Transportation Company - and steamer Toledo, making . general re duction. The latter's now rate sheet wont into effect last Wednesday, and the Southern Pacific has promptly re plied'. Manager Koehler, said that 'the Southern Pacific propose to get Its share of the traffic. With Its new schedule tho Southern Pacific will bo In a position to com pete for all business, with the odds somewhat In Its favor. The new rate sheet gives a reduced rate between Portland and Now Era, Canby, Salem, Albauy, HarrlBburg, Nowborg, West Dayton, McMlnnvlllc, Independence and Corvallis. It Is" not known that the railroad commission had anything to do with this reduction, as the river points are genarally protected by the water competition. Weyler's Edict. Havana, Feb. 1.

ASSEMBLYMEN To Rump or Not to Rump The Problem Before Solons. the Oregon Both houses of the Oregon legisla ture met ut 2:30 p. m. They arc ap parently as far apart us ever. Senator Simon boldly declares no legal ballot for Rcnator can be takenj in cither branch of this legislature or In any joint assembly until the second Tuesday after the house Is organized. Of course, neither President Simon, the senate or any state official has as yet recognized the Benson organlza tlon or given any indtcttoa of any In tention to do so. The rump hoifse Is nearlng dissolu tion. It cannot get bills printed, draw pay, obtain postage, or get trusted at a boarding house, or bar In this city, on the strength of Its Illegal organization, Even tho ministers seem reluctant to pray over Its re mains. It Is ready for burial. MONDAY AFTERNOON. Tho senate and the Benson house were called to order at 2.30 p. m. The senate took up tho regular or der of second reading of bills.

Geer goes out of the way to Blur Brother JBarkley and Brother Hofer for their advocacy of the rights of the people and for denouncing dis regard for public economy by the Oregon legislature. Mr. Geer was never guilty of lying awnko nights to protect anything la public affairs but his own Interests. Ho was a candi date against Judge Lord for governor and then demanded tho best office in Lord's gift. When .ho could not get it ho wrote "hop picker letters" to tho Orcgoninn, which for base demagogy surpassed the utterances of any calamity howler ever sprung on tho people of Oregon. Mr. Gecr's so-called devotion to principle is best. Illustrated by his heartfelt advocacy of a silver McKln loy on a gold platform, and his sup port of a silver Mitchell in. the spring, now metamorphosed Into a gold bug Mitchell In the fall, but It is all the samo to Mr. Geer. He swallows any pill prepared In the name of his party that promises to relieve his novcr ecoslug Inward griping for politlca pap. The Journal was hearty- In its unsolicited 6upportL of McKinley when, he stood beforo the American people.as a champion of bimetallism and protection for the laborers and farmers. But as an apostate to his own record, as a man who sold himself to tho gold trust along with the other commercial and religious trusts, The Journal could not support him. The case Is tho same with Mr. Mitchell Up to tho Juno election we only knew him by his public utter ances and his public record. Wo had only known him about ten years and. his course was consistently on the side of the people. Silver Republi cans, Democrats and Peoplo's party men supported him at tho Juno elec tion by voting for men who openly said .they were, Mitchell men and solicited votes as such, and Senator Mitchell let them do it and urged thorn to do it and know why they -did it. Now It seems it was only a fraud and a deception on his part; that he was waiting to Bee how the cat would Jump In Oregon, having secretly entered into alliance -with the poli ticians for revenue and abandoned Ills old tried and true friends who sup ported him as a matter of principle without hopo of reward. In -this re Bpect Geer and Mitchell naturally fratcrnlzeand their minds coalesce in that vacuum of "principle" which all honest men abhor. Brother Geer and Brother Mitchell may win a few crumbs out of tho bread sack of ex pediency politics in this way.but they will nover enjoy tho respect which only follows consistent advocacy of principles rather than Industrious pursuit of office. About a bozen hop contracts for the crop of 1807 were filed for record in Yamhill couuty last weok, The aver age price to be paid is 8 cents. t W H XSk H fi?oyAffiaotTi htm. im X!jaSlLji!SjmjmJ9 -8 ' :.- &&' - ft &.? - -!
