The Jumtl VIII Case-Anothsr Claimant for
the q, 900, 600.

A case was brought to trial on the Esd In
slant says New York correspondent In the
United States Circuit Court, before Judge
shipman, which, as II progresses day BY day,
cannot fail 10 attract great attention through
out the country, owing 70 the attempts which
will be made by eminent counsel on both
sides TO throw light on the private lives and
characters OF prominent men In the history
Of the last century. George Warrington
Bowen, a hearty, well.proserycd old gentle
lnan Of n, now from Rhode Island, appears
Ss sE saS s. q .So very nTSs
The greater part Of his witnesses, also from
Rhode Island, appeared with him In court.
Mr.. Nelson Chase, the present holder OF the
Jumel estate, was represented by the ven
cradle Charles o'Conor, and quite an array
Of counsel appeared for the claimant
Mr.. Chauncey shalfer, In opening for the
plaintiff, stated that the action was brought
under the statute Of New York allowing u
legitimate children TO inherit from their
mother both real and personal property, and
this property was worth several milllons Of
dollars, which belonged 10 Madame Eliza
Bowen Jnmel, who was born In Proyldence
about l775, and died al her residence In Har-
lem In 1865. Immediately upon her death
the defendant closed her house against .
number OF nephews and nleces, and soized
upon all the property without o shadow OF
authority. Tho plAlntlhs uamo was Bowen,
Madame Jumels maiden name. Inc plhin-
tiff would prove that he was not her son,
the only child she ever had. She was known
ut that timo rs Elise or Betsy Bowen; she APP
peared In New York In 1901, and afterwards
became Madame Elise Bowen Jumel. Later
In life she often spoke Of distinguished per-
sons as II ahe had enjoyed very close intimacy
with them. She did, beyond doubt speak Of
General Washington as having been cnamorcd
Of her. =
Mr.. shaffer alluded TO cross-examinatiou
Of one of the plaintiffs Witnesses In the pro-
llmlnary deposition, which stated that Cen
eral Washington was tho plaintiffs father.
ave claim" said Mr.. Shaffer, mo such dis
tinguished pedigree, but say that she was
Jumel's wife twenty-elght years, and the hus-
band lived and died In ignorance Of the ex-
istence Of tho plaintiff. He Is now an old
man Of seyenty-seyen years, who bears high
character. lie has borne this stigma all biz
life with patience but now demands hls prop
erty, amounting to $4,000, 900. The question
for the Jury 10 answer 10 whether tho plaintiff
is the son Of Madame Jumel, tho great friend
Of the leading men Of the American Reyolu
ton."
The examination OF witnesses will com
mence shortly, and the case will probably oe
cupy two weeks.

EAST or THE MoUNrANs.-We
have failed to receive single ex-
change east of the mountains for sew
eral weeks, therefore We are unable TO
state the character Of the weather IN
Eastern Oregon, Idaho or Washington.
The latest dates we have seen were to
the 10th OF Dec. The weather in the
Walla Walla valley was then lovely.
farmers bi'sily engaged plowing their
ground, getting ready to put in crops.
The prices of hay and feed had fallen,
under tile miitienees Of genial weather
and bright prospects. From Boise
valley it was stated that up to that
time dec. 16fh.) they had been
singnlarly favored In exemption from
ylsitations by the Storm King. While
terrible storms have visited portions bf
Oregon. Montana, Utah and Nayada.
Boise valley has enjoyed delightful
weather-tlntisually good for the sea-
son of the year. We are in hopes
that the reported loss of stock in
0choco valley and other points are
untrue or greatly exaggerated. We
viii doubtless receive full files of
Eastern Oregon and Washington
papers next week, when we will Law
before onr readers all the news we
thus obtain.

FALLING,-Thc price of wheat al
present seems to be tending down
ward, and it seems to be the opinion
of dealers that 75c per bushel will be
the very top of the market here next
week, although the present quotation
Is 9Oc. The price in San Francisco
has been tending downwartls for
some time past, and there seems less
probability to-day of and advance to
the prices Of two or three months ago
than ever. 1t is even conteLded that
if the crops in California prove as
good az present prospects report them
to be, wheat will decline to soc. We
hardly believe this, but it may be the
case nevertheless.

MoNoToNoUs.--It Is reported that
Douglas the escaped prisoner, was
caught today "wednesday at NIiller's,
some twelve miles from this city. We
are in hopes that, if the news prove
true, Douglas will be incarcented In
the city cllaboosc, if it is really the in
tention of the officers to retain him IN
custody. This thing of getting out
of our new ten thousand dollar Jail
every day or two, to be caught aud
again given u chance to escape, is
becoming monotonous. Let's have
a change. Either turn him loose, or
put him in a safe place.
