She Will Not Have Money Enough to Pay the Costs of Her Suits. —— San Franctsco, Can, August 7.—JIndge Shafter yesterday gave his written findings of facts and the judgment in the Sharon case. They are brief and effectually knocks out Sarah Althea, He finds that she was never the wife of Sharon, as there 18 no evidence to show that Sharon ever signed the alleged marriage contract or lived with her as his wife. The conclusion of the court is that as the plaintiff and Sharon were never husband and wife she has no right or claim to any share of the Sharon estate, and that the defendant may recover his costs. If the latter decree be carried out it will strip Sarah Althea of everything she bas. Her little property left by Judg ry won't pay one-titth of the costs of the action. oe CRITICISING THE CENSUS. The State of Washington Seems to Have Outstripped Oregon. PortLaxp, Onx., August 7.—The president of the chamber of commerce in this city yes- torday sent the following telegram to the Oregon delegation in Congress relative to al- leged imperfections in the census in this state: “Washington cast at her state election this year 58.443 and the census gives the state population. Oregon cast at the state election this year 73.400 and the census should in a like rate give her a population of 415,300, while it gives only 264.242 The glaring political injustice of the situation is that while the smaller state of Washington will get two members in the lower house of Congress, and proportionate power in the electoral college, the large state of Oregon will get butone member and a corresponding loss of representation in the electoral college. Oregon protests against the virtual partial dis- franchisement in national aud congressional tions for the next ten years, growing out of blunders of the Censuy Department, and ap- peals through you to the Secretary of the In- werior for a recount of the entire state.” a Tin Mine Sold.

JacksonvILLe, Fia., August 7.-—-Murray Hall, an elegant summer hotel at Pablo Beach, burned to the ground early this am. The fire caught about midnight in the engine room in the rear of the hotel and could not be con- trolled owing to the low pressure of water at the time It spread rap- idly to the billiard hall also, in the rear, and at 12:30 a.m. the northwest turret was in flames, The hotel was of wood, four stories high, with numerous towers, turrets and gables, and the flames made quick work bes it. There were fifty guests in the hotel at the time, but they escaped in good order with their effects. Much of the valuable furniture on the lower floor was saved, but nothing from the other storica, t2 a.m. there was not a timber standing. Fire was also communicated to the beach pavilion, a promenade dance hall and the depot of the Jacksonville and Atlan- tic railroad, which were entirely consumed; also a grocery store. Murray Hall was built in 1885-6 and was the property of John G. Christopher and wife of this city, and the original cost was $140,000; but subse- quent additions and improvements to the plant brought the value up to 200,000. Chris- topher’s loss, including furniture, is about $225,000. He had orfly $4,000 insurance, ea KANSAS CROPS. The Whole State is Suffering From Drought and Heat. Torrxa, Kax., August 7.—The following is the crop report of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture for July: Reports received from about five hundred correspondents of the board, representing every county in the state, clearly indicate that the growing crops in every portion of the state have been seriously injured. The severe drought, intense heat and occasional hot winds prevailing throughout the state generally have been the se of this falling off of the corn prospects. Its condition, which one month ago was re- ported 90 per cent, is now reported at only 33 per cent of an average crop. This devastation of the crop exists in every portion of the state, but that portion of the state between the ninety-seventh and one hundredth meridians has sutfered most severely. Gray and Ruley counties report a practical failure of the crap. Seventy-five counties in eastern Kansas and eight counties west of the one hun- dredth meridian report 50 to 80 per cent of a crop. It is safe to say that the corn crop this year will not exceed 75,000,000 bushels. The yield of wheat is found to be better than was expected. Thirty to forty bushels per acre are reported testing 62 to 65 pounds per bushel, The aggregate wheat pro- dact will be about 23,000,000 bushels, The flax area has been greatly increased and the crop is very good. The oats crop, although short, is yielding better than was ex- pected; a yield of from 40 to 70 per acre is reported from a number of counties. The following is the summary as compared with a full average condition: Corn, 33 per cent;barley, 80; flax, 84; broom corn, 57; sor- ghum, 62; millet, 60; tame grass, 58; potatoe: 4; prairie grass, 55; apples, 54; peaches. grapes, G4. ‘The month has been tho dric and hottest July in twenty years. Chinch bugs are reported in many counties, but they have done no great harm. ee HOW DEEP WAS IT? Three Curious Men Blown to Kingdom Come by a Deep Well. Norwoop, Onto, August 7.—An accident oc- curred here Tuesday evening on the premises of O. Buddemeir by which three men will probably lose their lives, Contractor Espel, who was at work on the church adjacent, was granted the privilege of drawing all the water he wanted from Buddemeir's well, The fact that itis 60 feet deep and contains 45 feet of water was scouted by one of the victims Michael Kuenzel and Joe Sebastian were drawn into the discussion and the former was not willing to sccere the statement that the weil was so deep. He opened the trap door on the six-foot square platform over the well’s mouth. Lighting a match Kuenzel dropped it toward the water, but it went out. “I smell gas,” re- marked Mr. Kueuzel, He did, but he foolishly twisted a newspaper and sent it after the burut out match. In an instant there was an explo- sion. Kuenzel, Sebastian and a teamster named Barney Prues, who were standing on the = were blown into the air. All were horribly burned and bruised, aud it is doubt- ful if any one of them recovers. prem esas Suit Against EK. L. Harper.

An argument has been reached by the con- ferees on the eundry appropriation bill upon every item of difference, except that relating to the appropriation of $720,000 for continuing the irrigation survey under the direction of the geological survey, which the Senate struck out of the bill.

Mrs, Schacfer testitied to the robbery and identified a demijohu of blackberry wine that was recovered by the officer. Policeman Dyer testified to seeing the prisoner on the morning the robbery was committed. ‘The prisoner, he said, dropped the demijobn and escaped. “Some days afterwards witness arrested him and had to shoot him to make the arrest, Policeman Kraemer gave similar testimony.

There May be Some Amicable Arrangs- ment Concerning Them. ‘The public building question in the House is still unsettled, but there seems to be some chance of an amicable agreement—or, at least, an agreement to be amicable. If the advocates of the building bills can agree upon a program by which » limited number of their bills can be disposed of, the probability is that Mr. Reed will not object. What chance there is of their arranging such « program is another question. During the first session of the last Congress 41,000,000 were referred to the committee on public buildings and grounds. Twelve or thir- teen million worth of bills were reported of nine millions were passed, During this session bills aggregating €63,000,000 have been sent to the committee, including the District of Columbia and and, bills that have been vetoed, bills aggregat- ing $23,000,000 have been reported. Thus far oul @ little over §3,000,000 bas been authorized to be expended in public buildings throughout the states. Members of the committee think that if the bil! by this Congress aggregated $12,000,000 it would not be a disproportionately large amount. Today’s Nominations, The following nominations were sent to the Senate: To be postmasters: New York—John H. Crandall, Bolivar. Pennsyivania—Simon ©. Worgensetter, Shamokin; Ralph R.

Members of the House may tear themselves away from their public duties, and it may be that a» recess will set the whole membership of the popular branch at liberty, but there will be no recess onthe Senate side. Tariff snd river and har- bor bills are pressing too heavily for any holi- day at the northern end of the Capitol. Sen- ators say there will be no trouble to prevent the House getting fresh air if it wants it, and there is no doubt that a con- current resolution authorizing the House to take a week's recess would go through very easily. WHITE SQUADRON DESERTERS. Nearly 250 of the Crews of the Big War Vessels Take French Leave, More than two hundred men of the crews of the White Squadron have violated their leaves of absence since the three war vessels cast anchor in the North river a week ago, Butone of them has returned to duty. and it is proba- ble that at least half have left for good. Last Monday Admiral Walker began to fear a stampede that would leave him in command of ® squadron manned only by officers, so he issued an order granting leaves of absence to none of the men except those in the first con- duct grade. Since then the desertions have been fewer, but even the first conduct grade has not been entirely proof against the spirit of defection. The exact extent of the breaking of the rules is not known as yet. It was said today that the number of the absentees was 241, and that seventy-two of these were from the Chi- cago, the larger number of the rest from the Boston and the others from the Atlanta. Fully two-thirds of the crews of the squadron are foreigners, Gormaus, French, Italians, Span- jards, Swedes and Englishmen, —— SADIE LEE A GIRL AGAIN, A Baltimore Lass Masquerades for a Month as a Boy. From the Baltimore American, A girl of about eighteen years of age, Sadie Lee by name, yesterday proved, to the satis- faction of a number of persons at police head- quarters, that she could present a better appearance dressed in male attire than in skirta, The girl was brought to the mar- shal’s office by Detective Seibold, who bad learned that a little boy who was living on Mulberry street near Park was a boy from the clothier’s standpoint only. She had been away from home since November, and was taken last evening to her father’s residence, on South Fulton street. After a little talk on both sides all appeared to be reconciled. When in male attire Sadie Lee was dressed in knee breeches, long black stockings, boy’s low shoes and wore an Alpine hat and looked like a bright boy of about fifteen years of uge, She said that she had been wearing boy's clothing since June 26. A ef before that time she had left a position where she was earning very little money and had decided to take some drug and depart from this sphere of care and sorrow. She met a youth, John Saville, she said, whom she had known for some time, and after talking matters over it was decided to have a few hours’ more fun before leaving the world Saville gave her a pair of pantaloons and a coat. She dressed herself as a boy, and went to the academy that night. She did not go on the street very often. but continued to wear the boy's clothes. She had intended to become a district messenger boy, but did not carry out the intention. She did start, however, to give out band bills for a clothier, but the work mapped out appeared « little too laborious, and she and five boys gave the clothier the slip on Baltimore treet, Most of her time was spentin her room, doing nothing, and, according to her statement. her food was | not'very abundant. ‘The girl spoke of the difficulty of getting a position, and when it was suggested that she finda place as nurse she answered that she did have sucha place, but | she was compelled to lug 2 year-old infant up and down the stairs, which reduced her weight. Besides, the infant wore long dresses, aud in going up the steps she would tread on the dress, and the result was frequent rumpuses with her employer, which caused @ separation, She had her hair cut short when deciding to become a boy, and her 9-inch-long plait of hair was retained by the barber who did the job. Her mother has been dead for about eleven years, and she has been living with her father, but some differences arose, which, she said, caused her to leave home. She said she would try to act differ- erently hereafter. Later in the day she secured iri’s attire, and those who had seen her as a oy told her that she looked better as a boy than as a girl.
