OREGON DROUGHT.
Hot Winds Dry Up Crops and Rivers in
Oregon and Utah.

HOT Wfnds Dry Up Crops ana RIVERS IN
Oregon and Utah.
OMAHA. Neb., July 2L-Mr. George Bon
nell, of the Union Pacific railroad, has re-
turned from a trip to the Pacific coast. He
says that Oregon will have but half
crop. The region has been visited by hot
winds from the north. 1t is one of the
most remarkable facts that has ever been
known in this country and the people out
there do not understand the hot winds
from the north. The drought is also very
bad in parts of Utah. The Provost river
is nearly gone dry and Utah lake is very
low. The Weber river, " hich leads from
Utah lake to Salt lake, is so narrow that
one can jump across it in places. The
Bear river, though, has an abundance of
water in it, and tie Cache valley, on the
Bear river, has a splendid crop prospect.
Not for years Mr.. Bonnell says, has there
been such a disasterous drought in
Oregon, Utah and some other regions of
the Far West. 1t has been very largely
due it is thought to the scarcity of snow
in the mountains. The streams have not
been fed by melting snow this summer as
they usually are. The snow fall of last
winter was remarkably light over the
Western mountain ranges.

meet the Creeks at Muskogee. The
il-feeling between the Creeks and Cher
okees grows more bitter as pend NJ nego-
tiations come to a focus. The CheroSees
upbraid the Creeks for the Oklahoma deal.
and their indignation increases as the
Creeks make further preparations to sell.

A DI sAsTRoUs STORM.
Norfolk Visited by Heavy Winds, Snow
and Rain.

and Rain.
NORFOLK (Va.). April 7th.-The storm
of thunder, lightning and hail, which
broke over the city yesterday morning,
changed last night turning into cyclone,
the wind blowing at the rate of fifty -four
miles an hour until O'Clock this morning.
The wind came from the northwest and
blew into the harbor and its tributaries a
tide, which at high water this morning was
eighteen inches higher than ever recorded
before.
The lower part of the city was flooded
and fire broke out on Water street, which
was caused by the Stacking of lime on the
wharf of John o. Gamage & Son. The
entire block, with the exception of Savage
Son & Co., commission merchants, the
old cotton exchange building, containing
800 bales of cotton, and the warehouse of
Perry & Co., containing about 600 bales of
cotton, were totally destroyed. Santos e.
Brother, coal dealers, lost everything but
their Office building. The loss on buildings
and stock destroyed in this block is esti-
mated at $3.50 900, partly insured. 1t is
probable the losses sustained by the whole
sale grocery merchants from water forced
into their warehouses by unprecedented
tide, will nearly equal this amount. Hun
dreds of barrels of sugar and flour and
other goods are ruined. During the storm
the roofs of the Opera-house, Masonic
Temple and many dwellings were torn off
and the Virginia Beach Railroad depot
badly injured, and the track for hundreds
of yards seriously damaged.
In Portsmouth the fire destroyed the
lime and lumberyard of Trugil & Hill.
The United States ship Pensacola sank
in the dry dock last night where she was
being repaired for sea. Her sea valves had
been opened for inspection and another
one was out The tide flooded the dock
and she filled with water, and getting off
her keel sank before she could be gotten
in position again.
Simpsons dry dock was flooded and the
damage will reach $4,000. The wires
along the coast are all down and no re-
ports can be had from shipping. 1t is
feared that serious damage has been done,
as there was no warning of the storm
given.

SHOT TO DEATH,
Virginia Outlaw Riddled With Bullets
Three Officers Wounded.


PITTsBURG, April 7th. Advices have
been received from Bramwell, w. Va, of
the killing of Bill Moran, the outlaw who
had been terrorizing Bramwell county, Va.
for year past. Two weeks ago he raided
a railroad station at Falls Mills, and the
railroad. people determined to put an end
to his outlawry. Detective Baldwin swore
out warrant for Moran. and accompanied
by detectives Wallace and Robinson To-
Gated their man in house in Tazewell
county, Va.
Early in the morning they went to the
house and Baldwin at once sprang into the
room seeing man he supposed to be Mo-
ran in bed. he called to him to surrender.
Just then Moran appeared at the door of
another room and fired two shots at Bald
win, one passing through his coat and the
other striking him III the arm near the
wrist.
BY this time Wallace and Robinson were
in the house, ahd the firing became general.
Wallace went down with one shot in the
mouth and two in his right arm Baldwin
caught another bullet in his wounded arm,
ard Robinson fired two shots at the out
law, when his pistol was knocked from his
hand by bullet which cut off one of his
fingers. A woman who was in the house
also fired five shots at Moran, and then
tainted. Moran shot all the cartridges from
his two revolvers. and then fell. He died
in two minutes, and when examined twelve
wounds were found on him, six being in
mis- body. The three detectives received
eight balls. Wallace is lying at the point
of death, and Baldwin is in a serious con-
dition. Moran never spoke after the firing
began. There is very general satisfaction
at his death

The Coast Defense Vessel to be Built at
San Erancfsco

san Francisco.
WASHINGTON, April 7th.-The .Sunda,
Herald says: The bids for the construc.
ton OF the coast defense vessel, for which
there is Sl,700,000 appropriated, are still in
the hands of the Navy Department Off
Gals. The Cramps were the lowest bid
ders, but 1t appears that their bid was not
IN compliance with the provisions of the
specifications, and the award will be made
to the next lowest bidder, the Union Iron
Works of San Francisco, who complied
with all the specifications without any
alterations whatever. There are many
good reasons why this coast defense harbor
ship should be built on the Pacific coast.
The present uncertainty of political CON-
plications in The Pacific Ocean islands
which are liable to beak out any time into
serious trouble, behooves the Government
to have the offensive and defensive imple-
ments of war well in hand.
The moral effect of the building of this
vessel on the Pacific Coast would be inyal-
liable from many stand points. The South
American Republic, Chill and Peru, Mex.
leo, China and Japan. who are more or
less interested in these Samoan Islands. are
not capable of building such a ship, for the
reason that they do not possess the neees-
sary facilities The construction of this
huge engine of war at San Francisco would
be the most efiectual means of notifying
the maritime world. Germany included.
that the interests of Uncle Sam in the Pa
cifc would not stand trihing with, and that
the policy of the present administration. as
adopted is far reaching in its scope, in be-
ing prepared to defend its remote and less
protected neighbors, whose commercial re-
lations with this country are of such inf
mite value

advance lest he should find no track. and
there, IN the sutfocating smoke and heat,
with blazing ties underneath the train and
flames or each side of the track, the crew
sought to extinguish the flames and save
the train.
The passengers became excited, and
pleaded to be released from death by fire or
suffocalon. that seemed so near at hand
For the time escape seemed impossible, and
several of the passengers gave up. Several
OF the ladies prayed alond. and on ell faces
was pictured fright natural TO mankind
when death appears to be only few mo-
ments hence.
The train crew and passengers worked
heroleally; men bent forward gasping for
breath, felt their way to the tender and
found water to dash on the burning ties,
while others went few feet ahead OF the
engine to see " neither it was safe to move
ahead. Behind the road was on fire as far
as the eye could see, while ahead all was
darkness and mystery. But il was death
to hnger in that cauldron of fire. and when
the surroundings either meant moving on
or death, the effort was worth the attempt
and start was made. The suspense and
horror OF the few moments required TO pass
over the burning track and through the
terrible heat and smoke cannot be ex-
pressed but the train finally pulled out of
the flames into fresh air and safety.

INVESTIGATION PROMISED.
Admiral Kimberly VIII Be Called Upon
for an Exclamation.

WASHINGTON, April 7th.-During the past
week there has been considerable talk in
naval circles in reference to the response
bi!ity for the recent disaster at Samoa. A
number of the most pronounced discip-
linarians of the service are not slow to con-
denim the action of Admiral Kimberly in
allowing the vessels to be caught in such a
storm without using some precautionary
measures. This was the season of the wear
when hurricanes and tidal waves might be
looked for, and the sailing directions plainly
state this fact. There is bound to be a
Court of Inquiry, they say, especially
since the story of the Calliope has be-
come known. The loss of life and ships
will be inquired into. If there was coal
enough to get up steam on any of the ships
1t was his duty, the officers believe, to have
them turned out of the dangerous harbor
of Apia. If, as it is said, there was no coal,
then the cause for this state of affairs will
be inquired into and the responsibility
fixed where it belongs. 1t has been as
serted by some naval officers that the Ger
man ships suffered the same fate as the
Trenton, Vandalia and Nipsic, and there
fore nothing should be said or done in the
matter, but as this country has nothing to
do with the Germans this excuse will not
he available
