ARMY HEApouARTKRs.

The Denver News, under the hesC
 Department of Arizona" says ths considerable interest was excited 1T
 town relative to the transfer of tn,
 army headquarters of the Depart
 ment of Arizona to Denver. The
 information rests in stronger shaps
 than that of rumor, as stated yes
 terday, The last issue of the Army
 and Navy Journal contains an edi-
 torial on the subject that seems to
 have been inspired. After describ-
 ing the advantages that would ac-
 crue from the transfer, the editorial
 boldly declares that Gen. McCook, commander of the Department of
 Arizona, favors the change. That
 fact alone imparts the tinge of a strong probability to the transfer.
 A News reporter visited the office of Captain Hay of the army, in the railroad building, to obtain further intelligence on the subject, who said We would rot be apt to receive and direct information, since we do not form a part of the department of the Platte, which has its head quarters at Omaha and includes Iowa, Nebraska. Colorado, Wyo- ming, Utah and a portion of Da- kotah. The headquarters of Gen. McCook, the department command CT of Arizona department, is now in Los Angeles, which is 1t the extreme western limit of the department, and hence is not desirable place for that purpose. Before the head quarters could be removed to Den yer, Colorado would have to be shifted to the department of Ari- zona.
 The Army and Navy Journal rep resents Gen. McCook as in favor of the change, which should have great weight. One thing is certain. If the department comman der de- sires the change it will be very likely to take place. On business princi- pies, however. 1t would be more de- ;irable to transfer the headouarters ,f the Department of the Pla tte to Denver than those of the Depart nent of Arizona. It would be a nore centIal location for the for ner than for the latter.
 It is generally conceded by army nen familiar with the situation. hat Los Angeles is the proper point or the headquarters of the depart nent of Arizona, as it is the nearest 'oint to the field where troops are equired. and on account of its rail oad facilities, and Gen. Sehofield so xpressed himself when in that city.
 At any rate, Gen. McCoek is not favor of the change, the Army nd Navy Gazette to the contrary notwithstanding, and as long as he as anything to say in the matter, IS headquarters will remain where ley are, in Los Angeles.

HARD ON THE CATTLE.

Rough Voyage of a Steamer and Explo-
sion of Another Vessel.
LONDON, Aug. 25.-The steamer Loch
Lomond from Montreal, which arrived
at Dundee, experienced severe hurricanes
during her voyage. The weather en-
conntered was so severe that the men
having charge of cattle on board were
unable to approach them for two days.
Seventy head of cattle were lost, and
scarcely one head escaped injury. There
was a sickening scene as the vessel was
discharging her cargo, number of
butchers being busily engaged for several
hours killing cattle, both aboard the
steamer and in the quay. aS
The British steamer Dehomver, which
had on board consignment of powder,
was completely shattered by an explo-
sion. Shelwas beached at Vigo, where
she was burned The crew were saved.

The Union Pacific wool steal.

From a private letter received this
morning from Mr.. and Mrs. j. H. Sher-
ar, who are now in Boston, we are per-
mitted to make the following extracts
relating to the way the. Union Pacific
railroad company have treated Mr..
Sherar in the shipment of his wool. 1t
will be remembered that sMr.isSherar
made contract with the Northern Pa
cific company to carry his wool, some 81
cars,to Boston.s According ito traffic
arrangement with the Union Pacific
company, this latter company was to
haul the wool over their track to Wal
lula Junetionsw here it would sbe takenin
charge by the Northern Pacific and
shipped to its destination. Instead of
doing this the Union Pacific took it
themselves the Oregon Short Line
to Boston. The wool had not yet all ar
rived on the Goth inst, and the letter
says: We were telegraphed to come
here on the 9th and we did 80, but our
wool has come in broken shipments all
the time, and we are yet out nine cars.
We are boarding atthe Union Pacific ex7
pense Cat least we think we are). Our
time is very limited, forsw we wanted to
get home ,hy,the Goth of September, but
| by the way things are running it looks
as if we would be here all summer. If
the Union Pacifc had not stolen our
wool we would have been through visit
ing in New York. We are well pleased
with onrweol and the way it is opening,
and prices are in a fairsway. Yousknow
we, shipped at $2.45 per hundred. Now
the Union Pacific, after first stealing the
wool, make: us pay ~. .671166 NV hat do
you think Of that for steal? II is the
most outrageous thing ever heard of.
What is the use of having bills of lading
when railroads. cane charge ias they
please?"

Some idea of the magnitude of the
steam and electric plant proposed for
the worlds fair may be gathered from
the statement that "a 900 horse power is
to be provided for driving the machinery.
The power at the Centennial Exposition
in Philadelphia was about $500 horse
power and at Paris 5000 horse power was
found sufficient. tits evident therefore
that if all the power provided is used at
the worlds fair exposition there will be
an enormous exhibit of machinery.

INSTITUTE PROCEEDINGS.
Professor WetzelI Springs new Idea
Among the Teachers.

1eAcneTSs
Professor WetzeH in concluding his
subject, writing" yesterday afternoon
summed up by saying that he would
never present to the eyes of his pupils a
badly formed letter, not even as con-
trast. In this he was sharply attacked
by Messrs. Shelly and Underwood, who
quoted in support of their side the
Spencerian Compendium. But, if the
the child is never to hear word of bad
English, in order to make him proficient
in the use of correct English, why
should he be shown poorly formed let
ters in order that he shall make good
letters. Professor Wetze1 sprang new
idea among the teachers, and, like all
new ideas, it has to undergo the sharp
inspection and criticism of the old
timers.
Preseason Wetzell makes some pre-
tensions to being a draughtsman. In
fact he says there are few people who
can surpass him in drawing-his breath
and salary.
The old I-get-there-every-moruing-in-
time teacher has come to be pleasant
feature of the institute to the instructors.
Be it said, to the credit of all concerned,
your reporter has never been a member
of teachers institute (and he has been
a member of good many in which
more vim and life are being displayed,
and in which more solid work is being
done than in the present one Profess

]. LosDoN, Aug 25. The papers here
welcome4the news of the battle which
beganiF Friday last near Valparaiso be-
tween the government troops and the
Chilian insurgents. They believe a bat
tlese fercely waged there indicates the
speedy end of the trouble which is bring
ing such disastrous results to Chill.
The news of battle when received here
had a favorable influence upon the stock
exchange prices, and Chilian bonds ad-
vanced slightly. 1t is believed that a
big recovery in these bonds will occnr
when things have settled down, although
the conditions which prevail in the other
South American republics will prevent
their speedy return to prices that ruled
before the breaking out of troubles.

1t is now probable that The -Dalles
will build a portage railroad to a point
near the mouth of the Deschutes and
also the railroadsto Sherman county and
to the Fossil coal fields. These matters
are no longer questions of expediency,
they are imperative. She must build or
die. Her business men have the means,
and many of them own largely in real
estate; to them the proposition is re-
duced to seeing values go to zero, or by
energy, determination and investment
of their money, see their properties
doubled and redoubled in value. The
Dalles should be, will be when once a
competitive point, the supply town of
all Eastern Oregon. She has the key to
the situation. but she must fit it to the
lock before she can open up the vast
trade that lies behind the closed doors
of her present condition. If her prop
erty owners are blooded she will be the
first city of Eastern Oregon for all time I;
if they are not that, that she has will
be taken away.-Gtncier.
