Secretary Of the Treasury.
A HONEYMOON STING.
Rival Claimants to an Alder
manic Chair.

An order was made by Judge Choate in the United
States District Court Thursday in the proceedings
for remission instituted by Demas Barnes,
assignee in bankruptcy of tho firm OF Theodore II.
Veterein Sons requiring the assignee to send tho
findings to Washington for the action of the Secre
tary Of the Treasury before the 18th inst. If
the assignee fails do the Judge orders the pro-
ceedings for remission to be discontinued. Tho
Vetterlein case is very old, having boen begun in
1863. The suit was then brought by the United
States for $4O0OO0 tho value of importations Of to-
bacco imported in violation of the customs laws.
Judgment was obtained by the confession cog
novit of the defendants, for $lO0.000 But
they had then just gone into bankruptcy
Judge Batchford required tho United States
to prove claim in bankruptcy. This proceeding
occupied two years. Tho assignee appealed from
the decision of Judge Batchford allowing the claim
and giving priority to the United States all
other creditors and Mr.. Justice Hunt affirmed that
decision. The assignee then, in 1875 instituted tho
remission proceedings After testimony had been
takon before Commissioner Osborn for three years
the went with his findings favorable to the
the petitioner applied to have the back
amendment of some defect in the findings. When
the returned the United States appealed to
Judge Choate for review of all Mr.. Osborn's
findings. The argument and decision occupied
several months. Judge Choate reversed Commits
sfoner Osborn's findings. and found fact that
there had been actual fraud in the violations of law
alleged against the bankrupt. If tho remission is
denied by the Secretary the Treasury the United
States take all the assets there is not enough

ATTANAM VALLEY, w. T., !
July 8th, 1879.

ED. INTERCHANGEABLE you invite
neighborhood correspondence, l thought
few lines from here might interest," the
readers of your paper, as items from
different localities in a State Or Terri
tory are the most interesting portion of
paper to me. My observation has
been that persons living in the rural
districts are eager for the news of diff
ferent sections of the country. and I
hope ere long to get the news through
your paper from every county and val
ley in tho Territory.
The crops in this valley look very
promising. We had three hours rain
on the morning Of the 4th inst, which
does away with the necessity for irri-
cation for this season. Some of the
heaviest wheat fell from the weight of
water on it. but it is raising up again.
Harvest will not begin in this valley
before the let of August. In Parker
bottom, some ten or fifteen miles down
the Yakima river from Yakima City,
harvest will be nearly Q month earlier.
and in the valleys north of here it will
be still later.
A Mr.. Thompson, of Oregon, brought
into this county q band of nine hundred
sheep short time ago. Sheep do we'll
here.
Sumner Barker, an old merchant Of
Yakima City. died on the Sd of June Of
paralysis.
A Mrs. Herkey. living on the Attanam
river. committed suicide by drowning
herself aud her infant child on the
night Of the 4th instant. The child
has not been found up to this time.
Her husband was working ct the Dalles

Our :egulsr correspondent writes I'M.
der date Of July l4th:
A terrible rainy week the worst
known in this part of the coontry for
many years at this season of the year.
Several farmers have considerable grass
cut in the swsth which will be some
what injured. The wind and rain have
beat down the standing grass in many
fields at terrible rate.
The loggers held meeting last Tues
day and resolved to take the logs out
of Ebey's Slough chains or no chains.
jackson & Co. sent several bocms to
Priests Point this week.
The river is up quite high for this
time Of the year. No damage as yet.
Saturday and Sunday were two fine
days.
The Pacific Base Ball Club have Sc
lected their nine to play the Unknowns
at Port Gamble. The game will come
off some time the present month.
The ladies have organized a base ball
club and already made very creditable
beginning. The lockers. on often sup
press q smile to see some of their at
tempts at batting. base running and
throwing the ball. One thing they
have already learned, that they cannot
gracefully run or stoop to pick up a
ball when hampered by q tight pull
back. They gave q social hop at Free
man Hall Saturday night which netted
them nearly enough to purchase suits
and materials for the game.
Mr.. J. Popejoy, who owns Q valuable
piece of farming land on lie Grand
marsh, near here. returned from Califor.
MIA Saturday He halls from Shasta
county. where himself and brother are
interested in some valuable quartz
mines. He reports rather dull times

glarized by an Indian one night last

rested by Sheriff Whitfield. brought
before Justice McNaughton, and SEN
fenced to Jail to await the action of the
next grand jury.

at work on the highway. A sidewalk

TINE HOP PROSPECT.

We understand that hop growers on
the Sound. discouraged BY past and
prevailing low prices, have determined
In many instances to gather only por.
ton Of their crops this season. Three,
four and five cents . pound will not
pay for picking, curing. sacking, freight
ing and marketing. and hops are worth
10 more at this time. There il al ex-
cellsnt prospect. however. for hops 60
ing up. A telegram from London,
dated the 10th instant. informs rs that
. disastrous failure 10 threatened the
English hop crop. and that the demand
for foreign hops will b immense. II
this IL the case, and We don't doubt 1t,
every pound that our growers can pro-
duce will be wanted. and the prices
they will receive will b much higher
than any that have prevailed for .
number of years past.
