The Baltimore american celebrated its
11Sth anniversary, on Monday, by Issuing q
newspaper containing twenty-six pages, the
edition requiring to print it 10000 pounds
of white paper. With it, also, the american
sends out a fac simile of its first issue. The
pages of this four-page sheet were about one
third the size of the present pages Of the pa
per. 1t bore the title The Maryland journal
and the Baltimore Advertiser, the first number
being dated August 20, 1773 By contrasting
its twelve small columns with the 208 we'll
filed columns of the American's anniversary
number, some idea may be gained Of the
growth of the city of Baltimore in population
and business enterprise, during the last hun
bred years. This growth has been more
marked and rapid, perhaps, during the last
25 years, and the indications of progress
are seen nowhere more plainly than in the
newspaper press of the city. The american

the country and in these The -Egis begs to

Henry D. Farnandis, Col. John Carroll
Walsh and Mr.. Charles H. STREET.,
have issued the call for primaries
and county convention to send delegates to
the gubernatorial convention which will

for nominating county ticket, the commit
tee has fixed upon Monday, July 9th, as the
day for the State primaries. The county con-
vention will be held on July Goth. Each dis
trict sends ten delegates to the county con-
vention and the county will send five dele.
gates to the State convention.
The Court of Appeals on Wednesday
handed down its opinion in the two Archer
bond cases which were recently tried in the
Circuit Court for Baltimore county. The
lower court is sustained in the ruling that the
first bond held over and the judgment for
100000 will therefore stand. The Court de-
cided that the life of the first bond was from
Archer's qualification in 1885 until his quail
f1cation under his third appointment, in 1890,
thereby wiping out the judgment for 81, $751;
55 recovered on the second bond. Another
case remains to be tried, on the third bond,
from January, 1890, until the defalcation was
discovered. twill probably come up in Sep

HOIST WITH HIS OWN PETARD.
Assistant Kidnaper Evans Fares Badly
without q Jury.

Deputy Sheriff Isaac Evans, of Pierce
county, who aided Detective Sullivan in
the kidnapping of r. b. Albertson and
w. Z. Bailey, was found guilty of assault
and battery by Justice Won Tobel yester-
day morning and was fined $50 and costs !;
in all amounting TO $125. An appeal was
taken to the superior court.
When the case was called for trial yes
terday morning at 10 o'clock the defense
insisted upon having a jury trial, and six
iurymen were accordingly sworn in. The
attorneys then INDUCED in little talk and
Attorney Ronald said:
Were willing to let the case be decided
by the Judge on the evidence given at the
trial of Mckay"
"All right" responded Judge Burke.
The Jury was dismissed by the justice
and the attorneys argued the case pro and
con on the evidence given on Tuesday at
the trial of p. ID. Mckay. The justice was
even more severe than the jury of the day
before, for he imposed fine of $40 on the
defendant, Evans, while the jury only
lined Mckay $50.
The attorneys for the defense were put
out of countenance by the decision and
Immediately gave notice of an appeal. The
bonds of Evans and Mckay were put at
$3.50 each, pending their trials in the
higher court. Their bondsmen were Her
man Chaplin and A. NJ. Brooke, president
and cashier, respectively, of the Boston

bunkers and the Northern Pacific track,
and extends from South Third street east
to the angle formed by the junction of the
columbia a. Puget Sound and the North

erection is sought to be restrained, has
been started between the stockyards and
the stables of the Transfer company, and
was intended for coal depot.
The Columbia Il Puget Sound claims
title TO the land through conveyance from
the Seattle Il Walla Walla Railroad Com

A Strong Man Poisoned by Habitual
Use of Them.
/. III. Place, of LOLA Rainier street, died
yesterday morning of blood poisoning, due
in all probability to the excessive use of
cigarettes.
Place was large man, weighing in the
neighborhood of $50 pounds. He came to
Seattle about five years ago, and since
that time has worked at different periods
as printer in various job offices through
out the city. His robust form gave
no indication of the slow but
sure incubation by the deadly poisons
contained in the cigarettes so extensively
used in the United States.
Places last illness dates from the begin
ming of September, and in the remarkably
short time of five weeks the man, who was
apparently strong and healthy, was
brought to his grave.
The deceased was native of Lowell, and
also has relatives in Gorie, N. HI. Previous
to coming to Seattle he lived in Boston and
on coming to this country brought with
him his wife, who is known as Mrs. Flor
ence Marvin, the seeress, and who, it is
claimed, predicted the election of Grover
Cleveland in the campaign against James
G. Blaine. By this union there were two
children, both of whom are living.
The funeral services will take place from
the undertaking rooms of Bonney Il Stew
art, this afternoon at o'clock. A
telegram was received yesterday from the
father requesting that the burial take

SUICIDE BY AMMONIA.
The Terrible Agony Does Not Prevent
Its Use.

No poison brings death with more maddening
agony than ammonia, hut that fact does not
seem TO discourage the suicide. The man Har-
rowitz. who deliberately swallowed a fatal dose
of the drug in New York recently, is only one of
the many why have gone the ammonia route to
death in spite of the excruciating pain. Dr..
Byth has recorded thirty eases of ammonia
poisoning in the small London district of which
he is health officer: Professor Mitchell mentions
twenty-five cases. and four have occurred during
the short time DR.. Jenkins has bean connected
with the coroner's Office in New York.
Cases of slow poisoning from ammonia are of
constant occurrence among men who work in its
manufacture, or even in deeomposng sub
stances which give it of in considerable quanti-
ties Ammonia, slowly and from day TO day

THE NAVAL DRY DOCK
Port Orchard to Have the Pro-
posed Work Soon.
THE CASE IN FEDERAL COURT.
Condemnation Proceedings to Come Up
Tor Hearing Today-Amicab1e Set
Element Probable.

The case of the United States VS.. w. P.
Sayward ct al. will be called in the United
States court today. The action is brought
by District Attorney Winston by the direc-
ton OF the attorney general to condemn a
suitable site for the construction of dry
dock at Point Turner in Port Orchard.
The land liked upon lies in sections IA,
70 and "A. township "a, north of range /,
east of Willamette meridian, and belongs
to William p. Sayward, who is represented
by Judge Dennison, of Olympia. Judge
Thomas Burke will represent Arthur
Scrivener, who is trustee of the London
and San Francisco bank, limited, of San
Francisco. which holds mortgage on the
property.
The action is brought by virtue of pro-
vision contained in the naval appropria-
ton acts of the last congress, by which
the secretary of the navy is empowered to
acquire a suitable site for dry dock at
the point in question. Although the law
requires that jury be selected to deter
mine the value of condemned land in case
of disagreement, it is probable that a
price will be agreed upon by the interested
parties, stipulation filed and the money
paid into court at once, in order that there
shall be no obstacle to going ahead with
the proposed work.

Yakima Hop Notes.

Mr.. Charles Carpenter is of the opinion that
the hop crop of Yakima county this year viii be
5000 bales, or GOO bales in excess OF last year. As
to prices, he says it will be difficult to say. At
present the price offered is lo]5 cents and brew
ers are holding off From Mr.. Carpenters infor-
nation he figures that the New York crop is
greater than last year, the English crop short,
but the German crop good. AS a rule the hops
are of poorer quality than usual, but this does
not apply to Yakima hops which are No. in
grade and when they become better known will
command the top price. That the advantages
of this section are recognized by the hop men is
evidenced by the fact that Mr.. John A Stone,
one of the largest hop growers OF the Puyallup
valley is now having broken 100 acres of land
under the Seiah ditch which will be planted to
hops This one yard viii add a sixth to the area
now in hops in this county.

last June he formed co-partnership with
the defendant to operate the Hotel CaIkins
n East Seattle, for the sale of certain real
esse in East Seattle, and to operate the
