LAND OFFICE DECISIONS.

4 Homestead Contest Rejected Removal
in November to New Omcss.
The register and receiver of the local land
Office rendered decisions in the following
cases yesterday:
r. M. Scott, making homestead fling
on land previously pre-empted by Ora Car
penter, asked that Carpenters claim to the
land be made void, on the grounds that he
did not make his home on the land. mas
much as his wife did not live with him, and
that. failing to comply with the law, he
had no right to ask to remain in possession
of the land. The officials reasoned to the
contrary, and cancelling the claim of
Scott, they accepted Carpenters final
proof.
Frederick M. Rosenfeldt fled pre-emp-
ton in township 81. on a portion OF tim
Der claim already selected and filed on by
Albert Workman. Rosenfeldt wished
Workman to vacate Immediately, but q
decision was rendered in favor of the de-
PENDANT.
On February Is. 1880, John Dobinson
made application to purchase timber land
in township "a, and March %, 1889, John
Cain filed an application for the same land.
Cam anted his predecessor ousted, but
Dobinson was found to be first on the land
and decision was accordingly rendered
in his favor.
In the land Office yesterday only one
homestead was filed. 1t was the quietest
day for the clerks in long time.
The land Office will again move about
November l. The present offices, in the
|. Kittenger building, will be exchanged for
rooms on the fourth floor. in the north
west corner of the Butler block, corner of
Second and James streets.

MINIsTkR MIzNER DErENDED.


Ex-Governor Sempie, His Half Brother,
on His Career and Character.
Ex-Governor Eugene Semple is q half
brother Of Mr.. MiEner. United States min-
lister to the Central American republics,
and in q conversation with Posr-IxTELLr-
GENcER reporter yesterday threw some
light on the character of the man who has
become prominent in connection with the
death of General Barrundia. He said:
When he was sixteen years old, Mr.. Miz.
ner accompanied General Semple, his step
father. to Bogola, when the latter was APP
pointed minister to the Republic of Colom-
bia. He remained there eight years and
acquired q thorough knowledge OF the
Spanish language and character. During
the Mexican war he was on the staff Of the
commander of the Illinois troops, who, /
believe was General Shields. On account
OF his knowledge Of Spanish be was the
bearer of important dispatches and on one
occasion rode in company with party Of
Mexican lancers for two days. He spoke
Spanish SO well and understood the man
ners Of the people so thoroughly that they
did not suspect who he was. He came out
to California in ls49 and has since been
prominent in public affairs. I was only
CAEhs OAN ~ eAA os tAAS ~ tAAos A1ovS kiO
personal recollec ton of him before came
to the coast in 1862. Since then I have
been intimately associated with him and
have kept up a correspondence with him,
though his duty in the service has not al
lowed him to speak of public affairs in his
letters.
He is man of very great personal
courage and determination, and of deep
seated convictions. He is thorough
American in every sense of the word. and
has much experience in public affairs.
would greatly doubt any charge of indis-
erection against him in the Barrundia af-
fair, and think he has the confidence of
the government. My knowledge of the
man is that he would always peform his
duty very conscientiously and carefully. I
do not give any credence to the attacks on
him, because have the utmost confidence
in him, and certainly belive that, when the
facts are finally made known, they will
find him to have acted with proper discre-
ton. You know that diplomat cannot
defend himself against attacks, because he
is not at liberty to publish his version of
the affair. Consequently only one side of
the Barrundia affair has appeared and
everything that has been published is
ex parte, and evidently inspired by the
friends of Barrundia. !"

EIGHT MORE BRICKMAKERs.


A Batch Of Prisoners for walia Walla-
scheme to Escape Fails.
A batch OF eight prisoners were taken,
manacled, from the county jail yesterday
afternoon and were put on the train for
Walla Walla. They are all going to the
penitentiary to serve terms ranging from
two to fourteen years. The men were
Charles III. Haley and James Green, rob-
berry, seven years each; Otta ST. Clair.

Harrison and John and James McGuire.

BY prearranged plan, Harrison, the

bug, tried to work it so Jailer Farraher
would manacle them together. The ]ailer
saw through the scheme and manacled
st. Clair to the Indian and Harrison to
Goldberg. and the change caused both
men to do a great deal OF grumbling. It
was clear that they had intended to make
q united attempt to escape.
ST. Clair had often said that he would
never go to the penitentiary. He boosted
that he had escaped from sheriff at Omaha
and said he would repeat the trick here
Claiming him to the old Indian made
escape impossible, and the look of anger
and despair which came over his face when
he saw his game was up, caused even the
solemn features of his cell partner, Harri-
son, to relax, and the big forger gave vent
to peal OF laughter. st. Clair also OBJ
jected to the handouts on the ground that
he could not play the banjo which he was
going to take to the penitentiary with him.
He was told If music was wanted on the
way the handouts would be taken off,
The men We're taken down South Third

small partner and tried to get away by
slipping into the door with him and,

however, and soon brought the discon-
certed forger back into line

Frat Product OF the New Eactory-How
It Is Made.
The first completed work of the machin-
cry recently put in by the Seattle Ventil-
ated Barrel Company was turned out yes
terday. The barrels are very neat in ap-
pearance, and much lighter than the or
binary solid barrel. Narrow laths of fir,
cedar or maple are made up into flexible
mats, three rows of wire fastenings being
woven through them near the middle, and
each mat cut off the right size to form a
barrel. when the sides are brought together
and hoops slipped on at the ends. When
finished the barrel weighs from seventeen
to twenty pounds, as against the thirty to
forty pounds weight of the ordinary bar
rel. The wire woven in with the laths pre-
vents the barrel from falling apart after be-
ing used and emptied.
The single machine now in operation by
the company. at the mill of the Huron
Lumber Company. at Bothell. has a capac-
ity of 500 barrels day, and as the demand
for the barrels increases, new machines
will be added. The barrels are made of
Washington timber, with the exception of
the elm hoops, and for some grades of bar
rels maple of native growth will be used for
these outside fasteuings.

was furnished an execution to serve on the
Star Coal Company at Durham. There
being no such company in the neighbor-

that it was mistake and, the deputy re-

lost his temper and grew demonstraiive.
He was immediately placed under arrest
