ASTORIA, Or., May 22,—United States Marshal Grady to-day arrvested eleven | men, indicted by the United States Grand Jury, now sitting in Portland, for alleged smuggling of Chinese into this city. The list comprised some prominent citi- | zens, starting with Dr. Alfred Kinney, | whose term as Mayor expired recently, | and who was defeated by a few votes for | re-election on the citizens’ ticket; W. W. | Parker, president of the Water Commission | and one of the most sedate, wealtby and | philanthropic men of thecity; J.W.Welch, | a member of the pioneer family of that! name; Hope Ferguson, the leader of the | young business men of the city; N.

STOCKTON, CAL, May 22.—The cham- bers of the fan Joaquin County Board of Supervisors were crowded to-day with farmers from the vicinity of Woodbridge and their attorneys and the represer]tn- tives of the Woodbridge Canal and Irriga- tion Company. 2 The farmers some time ago petitioned the Snpervisors to fix the rates on wnu:r for irrigation purposes, and to-day their side of the story was heard. £ Civil engineers were present and testi- fied to the amount of work done by the projectors of the system, and later by the Teceiver. With these figures it was esti- mated that the cost was not anything like what was claimed by the irrigation com- any. 2 lee cost was shown to be not over $87,- 000. At this valuation the board, under the law, could not fix the rate at less than 12 cents a year per acre, nor more than 36 cents, without the consent of the farmers, es they could not give the eompnu{ more than 18 nor less than 6 per cent on its in- vestment. 2 The farmers are willing to pay as high as 85 cents per acre, but not any such rates as are being asked by the irrigation com- Farmers pany. The matter went over until the next meeting. s, Sl A, FIRE AT SANTA CRUZ. Groceries and Liquors in a General Store Destroyed. SANTA CRUZ, May 23.—Fire broke out to-night in the general store of A. Burn- heim & Co., causing the destruction of a stock of liquors and groceries. A theater party returning home shortly after midnight saw smoke pouring from the rear windows. When the Fire De- partment arrived the iron shutters over the windows opening from the rear of the store were red-hot. The flames were con- fined to'the back rooms, containing the liquor and grocery departments, and the basement, stored with wines. The building is partitioned by fire-proof walls, swhich enabled the firemen to pre- vent a spread of the conflagation. "The clothing and dry-goods departments were, however, considerably damaged by smoke and water, It is not nown how the blaze origi- now in progress, representing an outlay of | nated, but it is presumed thata gas jet, over $100,000; Charles Stockton, whose |left burning in the basement, communi- social connections would make him prom- | cated flames to a wooden pillar. The inent even it his identification with social | d2mage is estimated at from $5000 to $10,-. orders dia not make him well known on | the coast. The others—Charles A. May, | R. J. Humphreys, Terry E. Coe, W. B. Ross and William Chadwick—are equally | as well known. | Marshal Grady did not put them under | arrest, except to the extent that he told | them that they were expected to appearat | the steamer landing this evening to ac-| company him to Portland to plead before United Btates District Judge Bellinger to- morrow. Witbout exaggeration, Astoria forgot everything except the departure of this aggregation. of officials and prominent | citizens. It was announced that they would leave by a certain steamship, and a large crowd was on the wharf to bid them farewell. Marshal Grady took his prisoners to an- other steamship, but there the crowd was | equally as great, and cheers and groans | followed the vessel on its departure. During the past few months several hundred Chinamen landed here off the steam-schooner Signa!, plying regularly be- tween here and Victoria. It has landed at least 300 “‘merchants” in that time, un- til the local Chinese firms average eighty | members. ; Bondsmen are awaiting the arrival of | the men in Portland. One hundred and | seventy citizens of Astoria are still ander examination by the Grand Jury. Marshal | Grady stated before leaving thathe ex- | pected to arrive in a few days for a bigger haul. — FIRE IN 175 BUNKERS. A Steamer Arvives at Astoria With a | Cargo of Burning Coal. ASTORIA, Oz., May 22.—The Oregon Railway and Navigation steamer Altmore arrived from Hongkong this morning via Victoria. Its coal bunkers were ablaze, but nothing was known of it here until after the start up the river. Water was being poured into the bunkers, but a vent leftopen to allowsteam to escape may re- sultin a gas explosion. The steamer is due in Portland to-morrow morning unless an accident occurs. NEW SECT AT SPOKANE, Rev. David Mclnturff Founds the People’s United Church. Deposed by the Cleveland Conference, He Launches a Doctrine of His Own. SPOKANE, Wasn,, May 22.—David N. Mclnturff, just relieved of his position as pastor of the First Methodist Church by the Cleveland conference, announces to the public to-day that he has founded a new church that wil! take the name of the *‘People’s United,” and whose work will at once extend to all parts of the earth until he, its founder, shall, like Alexander, weep because there are no more worlds to conquer. The doctrine of the new church is a combination of Methodism, Congrega- tionalism, Communism, Mormonism and a half dozen other isms, Dr, McInturff has been with the Meth- odist church for twenty years, having at one time been a missionary to Japan. He came here two years ago, and by his won- derful aggressiveness at once built a new church costing $15,000, although half tie people whom he induced to contribute did not have enough to ea, He soon caused a split in the church, fully 150 leaving and forming the Second Methodist Church. Trouble after trouble followed, until at last he was peremptorily removed by the Cleveland conference. Fifty or more persons called at Rey. Mr. MeclInturff’s home late last night, and when they left the People’s United Church had come into existence. el et Coulterville Citisens Natl & Canard. COULTERVILLE, Can, May 22.—In- dignation has been aroused to s high pitch here by the publication in a San Francisco paper of a malicious dispatch treating of a brutal crime alleged to have been committed by Cornishmen at a re- , & survey of the basement being im- possible before morning. LOS ANGELES ROMANCE Twin Brothers Meet After Having Been Parted for Thirty Years. Separated at the Close of the War and Each Believed the Other to Be Dead. LOS ANGELES, CaL., May 22.—Loung- ers in the corridor of the Hollenbeck witnessed a pathetic meeting this morning between brothers who had not seen each other for thirty years. They were Deacon and Dan Sanford. The brothers grasped each other in their armsand spectators say something moistened the cheeks of each. The Sanfords are now 60 years of age. It was at the close of the Civil War that Deacon and Dan, twin brothers, left tneir bhome in Chicago. One came West; the other went East. Weeks, months and years passed and they heard nothing of each other; finally each came to the con- clusion that the other wasdead, and would probably have continued to believe so but for the meeting to-day. Deacon Sanford has been in this city some weeks, and Dan* Sanford has been running between Los Angeles and Chicago asa Pullman-car conductor on the Santa Fe overland for two years. Dan Sanford went out on this morning’s overland trajn, and his brother saw him off. hey were the happiest é)air seen at La Grande station in many a day, Deacon Sanford has been in the hotel business in different parts of the United States for years. He is located perma- nently in this city now, having accepted the position of chef at the Jonathan Club. i P Ly MADERA'S DILIGENT ASSESSOR. Corporations Made to Pay Their Full Quota of Taxes. MADERA, CaAn, May 22. — Assessor Hoskins has, by untiring vigilance, suc- ceeded in uncovering another attempt to conceal the property of tax-paying corpo- rations. 2 The San Joaquin Electric’ Company, which furnished the electric power for the city of Fresno, has a plant situated on the San Joaquin River, in this county, and was accordingly requested by Assessor Hoskins to make a statement of its prop- | erty. This it did, claiming that the value of the property was $3700, but as there was an omission in the statement of some prop- erty which the Assessor knew was on the ground on the firat Mon- day in March, he having taken the precaution to have a deputy there on that date to take an inventory of the machinery, Hoskins went to Fresno and summoned the officers of the com- pany to appear and testify before him, They at first refused to obey the sum- mons, but on being threatened with an arbitrary assessment they consented to answer his questions and admitted that the value of the property at their plant was $12,000. They claimed that, as the title to the roperty had not passed to them from the aeneml Electric Comgany of San Fran- cisco they should not be compelled to pay taxes upon it. Hoskins wrote to the General Electric Company for a statement. They sent one, claiming the property to be worth $31,000; but the Assessor had procured their catalogne and discount sheet and fixed the value of the machinery at $51,000, npon which the two companies will be compelled to &uy taxes into the treasury instead of $3700. FOR SANTA CRUZ'S FETE, Hundreds of Citizens Will Appear in Masks on the Last Night, SANTA CRUZ, CaL., May 22.—The car- nival trustees to-night accepted a propo- sition from the Merchants' Association to display a *‘Boston tea party” in the carni- val, It was decided that nothingof a political or sectarian nature should appear in any of the displays, but all civic societies in thu‘ city and country are invited to take part. The high jinks committee held an en- thusiastic meeting to-night and appointed cent Mayday g\anlc near thie city. The ntleman and his_wife mentioned in the spatch deny all knowledge of the state- ment it contained. Those at whom the accusations were directed are respect- sble citizens, and their reported vic- tims denounce the canard., The state- ment that the Merced Gold Mining Com- pany employs uone but Cornishmen is untrue. The story of a threatened riot because of the ims‘finny Mayday episode is denounced as ridiculous, ng at Oroviile. CaL., May 22.—There was OROVILLE, great rejoicing here to-night over the elec | Parker, Ity sub-committees on band, arrangements, bail and parade. It revorted that fifty persons had already signed an agreement to mask on Baturday night, June 20, and it hoped to get at least 1000 more Santa Ciuz citizens. If the visitors will join in large numbers they expect to have a wild, joyous and rollicking time on this, the closing night of the carpival. ——— Finds a Big Nugget.

COLLEGE MEN AT CAZADERD, Delegations From Fifteen Coast Institutions in Camp. ON A TEN DAYS’ OUTING. Conference of Undergraduates Affiliating With the Y. M. C. A. TAKE THE TOWN BY STORM. Their Rah.-Rahs Awaken the Echoes in the Picturesque Sonoma Resort. CAZADERO, Car., May 22.—‘“Booma- tock, boomatock, nieka hi yay! Pacific Coast Colleges, Y. M. C. A.I"" Students from seven colleges in Oregon and eight colleges in California arrived here at dusk this evening, and the wooded canyons resounded with their rythmical yells as they walked from the little rail- road station along the winding hillside road to the hotel. They,are to be here for ten days in what will be the first confer- ence of undergraduates of the many col- leges ever held on the Pacific Coast. Lattle was done this evening, but early to-morrow morning the work will begin in earnest. After supper there was a short prayer-meeting, followed by general intro- ductions, and then the gathering broke up into little squads, each headed for the par- ticular cottage assigned to it by C. C. Michener, who, as the international secre- tary of the Young Men’'s Christian Asso- ciation in colleges, 1s one of the leaders at this meeting. Mr. Michener is a young man, a gradu- ate of Penn College with the class of 1890. He arrived here Wednesday evening ac- companied by 8. M. Sayford of Boston, who has in recent years devoted his entire time to special work of this order among American colleges, He is the oldest ‘‘boy’’ in camp, having ended his college days in 1867, when he took his degree at Gettys- burg College. Hugh McA., Beaver, Pennsylvania State College '95, a son of ex-Governor Beaver, was another of the earlier arrivals. He comes to take charge of the Bible classes, a position for which he has had consider- able experience, as he is college secretary of the Keystone Stata. Then there were Bristol from the Uni- versity of California and McGee from the University of Southern California. They were all here in advance to get things in shape, and the ease with which every dele- ate seems to have fallen into the place assigned him attests the success of the preparations. It was a long ride of five hours in the little narrow-gauge train, but fun-lowing college men just beginning their summer vacation were not the sort of passengers to atlow time to drag. The sport began be- fore the ferry-boat left the slip at San Francisco. Oregon’s delegation barked forth an im- promptu yell: “Oregon, Oregon, Oregon, O! Cassa, Cassa, Cazader-o! Or-e-gon!” And the large crowd from Palo Alto was quick to follow with their “rahs” and a “Stanford.” There was a rush of deckhands to the scene of the commotion, while one man hurried from the captain with peremptory orders to stop that noise. But at Sausa- lito, when the ferry had landed, that noise broke out again with all the force of con- scious freedom, and it continued to break out during the afternoon as the train woand through picturesque ravines, along steep, pine-covered hillside and through a score of tunnels. The train arrived at Alderney station Pnst in time for the colleginns to save the ittle waiting shed, which was in flames, A woman and a pretty girl from the farm- house close by were vainly dashing water upon it. The boys were out of the cars in g-econd, and a line of bucket-passers soon ad the roof drenched and every spark ex- tinguished. And.as the irain puffed awa; two pleased and wondering persons heng a wild medley of college yells and saw handkerchiefs wayed from car windows in parting salute. Occasionally the little, wheezing engine would stop to replenish its supply of fuel, but only for a moment, for a corps of volunteers would scramble for the wood- ile and four-foot logs would be hurled nto the tender like so much split kindling. The collegians, upon urriving here, eagerly struck out afoot for the hotel, but on the way were met by C. C. Michener, who, after being greeted with a hearty cheer, told them briefly that the recent rain_had necessitated 'a change to the regular hotel, where there were other guests and where the possibilities for hilarity would not be so great as at the present camp quarters. The Stanford delegation has a large cot- tage all to itself. and already the front gorch is bright with cardinal bunting. he University of Califormia, Pomona, Chaffey, California College and the Uni- versity of Southern California are installed in another cottage and over the meetin; hall the Oregon delegation will dream o! camper’s life and summer sports. Mr. Michener to-night led the prayer service, which began with what is to be the hymn of the conference: Stand up, stand up, for Jesus, yo soldlers of the cross: Lift bigh his royal banner—it must not suffer loss. Prnzem were offered by Arnold of Stan- ford, by Miller of the Pacific University, Oregon, and by Fisher of the University of Southern California, while Mr. Sayford said a few words of greeting.

MISSING FROM PORTLAND Insurance Agent Patterson’s De- parture Mourned by His : Victims. A Written Declaration That He Would End His Life Is Not Given Credence. PORTLAND, Or., May 22.—J. D. Patter- son, agent of the Mutual Reserve Life Fund Association for this territory, has disap- peared, leaving a letter addressed to a local undertaker under date of May 20, stating that he intended to commit smicide and that his first attempt haa failed. It is not believed that Patterson has committed suicide. He is believed to have disappeared for reasons best known to himself. He was the organizer, manager and collector of an employes’ benefit asso- ciation in this city. He collected a large sum in dues from members. The associa- tion is not incorporated, and the benefit fund, which was believed to have been deposited in the Merchants’ National Bank, was never deposited and subscrib- ers to the scheme have apparently been fleeced. It isnot known how much Pat- terson collected. The supposed suicide came to Portland about a year ago. He formerly lived at Davenport, Iowa, and Ogden, Utah. Some time ago the Chief of Police of Dav- enport sent a letter to local officials asking about Patterson and stating that he had abandoned his family there and they were unprovided for. Patterson is a man of pleasing appearance and manner, glib of speech and professing profound religious inclinations. An extract from his letter ave just awoke from a long sleep. I took two grains of morphine last night, hoping to pass away. I have failed in this, as in everything else I have under- taken. Oh, merciful God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Jesus of Nazareth, for- give this deed! I shall take two more grains, then go to the river. If any one cares enough about me, they may find my y in the river. Ido notdo this from choice, but am forced to it. My dear wife and little ones are suffering, and through my fault. God helfi me! I have no money. I have not had anything to eat for two days. I have given up all hope, and it js fit that I should die. This is enough now. Oh, how my head hurtsme. Ican't write any more. Farewell.” = PAITERSON'S OGDEN CAREER. Gambled Heavily and Forged a Check to Pay His Losses. OGDEN, Uran, May 22.—J. D. Patter- son, who is supposed to have committed suicide in Portland, is well known in Ogden. He was employed as time clerk for the Union Pacific Railroad Company in this city for several years. He was elected as the railroad candidate on the city School Board and served two years. After his aischarge from the Union Pacific he began a life of dissipation and gambled heavily. In order to pay his losses he forged a check for $400. He was arrested, but the matter was hushed up by his friends, who raised the amount. His friends claimed that Patterson was under the influence of morphine when the check was forged. He left Ogden soon after. He had a wife and family while in this city. SRR WEST POINT’S MURDERESS. Mrs. Halladay to Be Tried for Killing Her Son-in-Law. SAN ANDREAS, CAL., May 22.—MTrs. C. E. Halladay, has not yet escaped trial for the murder of her son-in-law, J. F. Mitcheil, at West Point two weeks ago, although exonerated by the Coroner's jury and acquitted ather preliminary ex- amination, Because of the ignorance of a Justice of the Peace her guilt was passed upon by a jury at this preliminary hearinfi. A complaint against Mrs. Halladay was sworn out yesterday. She was brought to 8an Andreas and placed in jail. To-day she appeared before Justice P. H. Kean, and upon motion of the District Attorney her hearing was set for June 3 at West Point. She was placed under bonds of $25,000. Mrs. Halladay started, in charge of an officer, for West Point this afternoon, She says she can procure bail. F GRASS VALLEY'S STRONG MAN. Mine Foreman Gluyas Stops a Shaft Cage and Saves His Life. GRASS VALLEY, CAL., May 22.—James Gluyas, underground foreman of the Mas- sachusetts Hill mine, miraculously escaped death last evening. Gluyas was at the bottom of a shaft when a cage containin, four men and a set of timbers was lovures upon him, crushing him to the ground. Heis severely injured abeut the back and hips, though no bones are broken. That he was not instantly killed is owing to the fact that Gluyas is a man of ex- tnordhurg strength, and he succeeded in stopping the car, which, with its contents, weighed overa ton. He will be laid up for some time. He considers his escape nothing short of a miracle. —— General Cowey At Portland. PORTLAND, Or., May 22.—General Jacob 8.

AN ASYLUM DEFICIENCY The Southern California Institu- tion Reports No Funds on Hand. DEPUTY (O'SHAUGHNESSY’S TIP3, Princely Generosity to Sleeping-Car Porters et Al. Not Approved by the Board. SAORAMENTO, CarL., May 22.—At the meeting of the State Board of Examiners to-day Secretary of State Brown called attention to the fact that section 665 of the Political Code provided that the meetings of the board should be held on the first and third Mondays in the month, and he made a motion to the effect that in the future the meetings be held in accord- ance with the statute,and also that the secretary of the hoard be instructed to write to the Attorney-General, who is re- sponsible for these Friday meetings, and notify him of the lasw. Deputy William O’Shaughnessy of Sheriff Whelan’s force demonstrated that heisa “thoroughbred” when he travels on business for the State by including in his claims the amounts of the tips he had bestowed on sleeping-car porters and others while escorting boys to Whittier School. They were scheduled as follows: Stew- ards, §1 60; night watchman, $1 50; pan- tryman, $1; waiter, §1 50. As he made two trips he is out just $11. The board objects to adisplay of hospitality at the expense of the State. The Southern California Insane Asylum is financially defunct, having overdrawn its funds $80. With the bills for the present month it will have no available funds un- til July, a deficiency is requested, and as it means a cessation of business unless the bills are paid, the board concluded to en- deavor to obtain the attendance of Attor- ney-General Fitzgerald at least one meet- ing in order to create the deficiency. The Labor Commissioner also desires to be allowed a deficiency of $1600, as his bureau has run short of funds. While the board was in session the Governer received a telephone message from Captain Lees requesting that a re- ward be offered for the arrest and con- viction of Blanther, the suspected mur- derer of Mrs. Langfeldt. Governor Budd complied with the request by offering $500 and then said: “I have been accused by the newspapers of opposing the San Francisco officers in not offering this reward. I have not neg- lected it, but have been away and bave not been attending to officjal business.” During the session the Governor stated that heintended to make a trip ‘into Yo- semite Valley as soon as the road opened. He did not state his purpose, but it is said that he has discovered another mare's nest and intends mixing up with the Board of Commissioners because, it is alleged, they expended fundsin the erection of a hotel to be rented to private indi- dividuals. e —— ow is your liver?
