FIVE Lives Lost

Fine Oregon Steamer Founders and
Five Lives Are Lost.
A Portland, Ore, dispatch Of the 10Th
sIys: The steamship Columbia, which
has just arrived al Astoria, bound from
San Francisco to Portland, brings a re-
port o! the loss of the Oregon Hallway
4 Navigation Company's magnificent
side-Wheel iron steamer Alaskan.
THIS vessel is reported to have found
cred of Cape Blanco, Monday, Hay IS,
while on her way from Portland 10
t'an Francisco. Only meagre particu-
lsrs have been received yet. The
Alaskan left Portland last Saturday,
May IL, bound for San Francisco, where
she was to go IN dry dock for some re-
pelrs paratoTy TO being placed on
the Puget Sound route. 1t is supposed
that she must have encountered very
severe gale while on her way down the
coast. The steamer fortunately carried
no passengers, having on beard only
her officers and crew when she went
down.
Cape Blanco is some 400 miles south
OF the mouth o! the ColumL ia River.
The steamship Columbia, which was
coming up the coast, picked up the cap
tain and mate and eleven of the crew
and brought them to Astoria. Five men
are reported to be drowned. Two boats
containing the remainder of the crew
have not yet been heard rom.

CHICAGO DiSTILLERS SWINDLED.
An Ony-Tongued Young Man Secures
DOLLARS hY a Clever DeYiCa.

Dollars by a Clever Device.
A scheme, rivaling in some respects
the famous electric sugar refining swim
die, was exposed at Chicago on the
10th. The perpetrator is smooth
hammered young fellow named John
Archibald Comp, whose papers
Indicate that be has ben oper-
ating not only in Chicago, but
also at Kansas City, st. Louis and
Cincinnati. Comp is now missing, and
it is said that a good many thousand
dollars belonging to various distillers
and liquor dealers have disappeared
with him. Comp stopped at the Metro
politan Hotel, and according TO the re-
port of the detectives who have been
investigating the matter, he was visited
by scores of dupes. The fellow pre-
tended to possess a compound which
would change poor whisky into the
finest of highwines. A gallon sam
pie of the vilest ''fortyrod," after
being medicated, would be placed in
refrigerator and in ten minutes could be
taken out transformed into the finest
bourbon. If objection was made to the
refrigerator, Comp would accompany
the doubter to any place desired, ana
then retiring to private room accomp-
lsh the same feat without the re-
frigerator. 1t turns out, however,
that the refrigerator was really
as suspected, a clever device by
which bottle containing good
whisky was substituted for the bad.
The trick when performed elsewhere
than at the refrigerator was done by
means of a reservoir worn under tin
brea st-plate or armor which by means
of a concealed tube could be emptied
or filed at will. Comp was inveigled
into taking detective into partnership
with him, but when an arrest was con-
templated smelt a mouse and fled,
leaving behind the refrigerator. He
carried off the armor

Many buildings Destroyed In ST. Bauveur,
Que bec-Many Homeless.
A dispatch of the 10th from Quebec
says: A disastrous fire broke out early
this morning IN st. Sauveur. The
flames spread with great rapidity
through the wooden district which
surrounded the place where the fire
originated. Many of the houses
on Waller, Chene, st. Peter and
st. Marie streets were burned. st.
Sauveur had but a poor fire department,
and 1t could make no headway against
the flames. Help was asked from this
city, and Quebec engines were quickly
sent, but owing to the lack of water their
efforts were crippled. Battery B was
finally called out, and rendered valuable
assistance in fighting the flames. While
the military was preparing to blow up
some houses to check the spread
Of the flames, premature explosion
took place In one of the houses, killing
Mai. Short and Sergt. Wallick, of Bat
terry j. Both were buried in the ruins,
and at 8 o'clock the body of Sergt. Wal
lick was recovered. 1t was horribly
mangled. One leg and one arm had
been torn from Mai Shorts body by the
explosion, and were found at some dis
tance from the trunk.
st. Sauveur is a separate municipality
from Quebec, but is separated from this
city by only the width of street. 1t
has population of about $4,000. Only
last night the st. Sauveur officials re-
fused an offer of this city to supply
them with water.
The fire burned itself out, after reach
ing the limits of st. Sauveur, the toll
gate keepers house in Waller Street
being about the last to go. The district

About 700 houses were burned. As
number of families homeless is not less
than 1900, comprising 5000 or 5000
persons.
The Hon. Mr.. Mercer and other
prominent men are interesting them
selves in behalf of the homeless people.
Application has been made to Sir A. 7.
CarOn for the use of drill and other
government buildings to shelter those
who are vet camped cut in the fields.
The clergy are distributing food, and
steps are being taken to organize
regular system of relief. Tie majority
of the people burned out are the labor
ing class, and, as insurance rates were
very high, few have anything to fall
back upon.
Tie total loss is estimated at $500, 900.
if the wind had been from any other
quarter all st. Roch's might have gone.
AS it was, st. Sauveur is badly swept up
to its furthest end.
1t was generally supposed that Sergt.
Walleck died Immediately after being
taken from the ruins, but it has since
been learned that he is still alive in the
Marine Hospital, but not likely to recoy-
er. 1t is expected that the remains of
Maj. Short will he taken to Kingston to-
morrow for burial

changed there appeas to be little doubt
that the amendments viii be concurred

): Hull, the Chicago millionaire, will be
distributed without a fight and his
cousin, amanuensis and chief business

dette +. Hull and Ennice Naramora,
who were left without mention in
the mllllonaire's testament. They
proposed to contest the action of
their uncle IN cutting them of and leav-
ing everything to Miss Culver, but upon
anlntlmatlon of that intent on Miss Cnl-
yer expressed desire to settle some of
her large fortune on them On the
2lst decree was entered by which Miss
Culver gave to the nephews ard Hieces
OF Mr.. Hull $2l2, $50 to be divided
among twenty adults and minors in
equal shares. Miss Culver is abs lived
from all claims by the heirs and thus a

The fight between the 'Bucke t-shops''
and the Board OF Trade, of Chicago, has
been renewed. Bailey, Wells & Co.,
who have an office outside of che Board
of Trade, and who have been securing
the quotations of the big board from a
ticker" have begun an action against
the Board Of Trade, the Western
Union Telegraph Company and
the Gold & Stock Telegraph
company. They say that the Board of
Trade claims the right TO control the
distribution of It's price quotations, that
the Western Union, controlling the gold
and stock or tucker" service, has ad-
mitted the validity of the claim by en-
tering into contract not to deliver the
quotations to anyone not authorized by
the board to receive them; and that, as
complainant is not so favored, the West
ern Union compa y thre atens 70 take the
''ticker" out OF the complainant's office.
Compiainants go on to say that the
boards claim Of exclusive jurisdiction
over its quotations is untenable. and
that therefore, the contract with the
Western Union which recognizes such
right is not valid. Complainants there
fore ask that the company be restrained
from removing their ticker" Judge
