WESTERN oREGoN-wEATHER.

WESTERN oREGoN-wEATHER
The temperature has been lower, yet
above the average. The atmosphere has
been clearer of smoke, the weather has
been partly cloudy and local showers
prevailed during the latter part of the
week.
The showers have done no material
damage, they have delayed some late
threshing, and somewhat retarded hop
picking in few sections. The thresh-
ing of grain is practically over; only a
few small lots yet remain to be threshed.
The wheat is being delivered to ware
duct was never better, the berry is OF
first grade; the yield has been heavy,
generally more than was anticipated.
Large yields are reported from every
county. In Washington county for ex-
ample, one farm yielded 4e bushels per
acre, another "a bushels per acre. Smut
is more generally reported than usual,
though it is not this year so very extern
sive; spring wheat is more affected than
but not as proportionally good as the
wheat crop. Hop-picking will be about
finished next week, unless the present
rains should delay the pickers more
than is now expected. The hops of
Douglas county were supposed to be
free from lice and mould, but on picking
some yards are found to be badly dam
aged. No lice are observable in
Josephine county. It is estimated that
lice and mould have damaged the hop
crop to the extent of $500 900. In Jack
son and Josephine counties corn is ripe,
of good quality and yield. Summer fall
lowing is in progress in many of the
EASTERN oREGoN-wEATHER
a few showers have occurred. The
the average. There has been less smoke
in the atmosphere. In the interior
counties on the higher elevations frosts
occurred.
The showers did no damage Thresh-
ing is in progress in some sections and
in some counties it is nearly done. In
Wasco and in parts of Sherman county
the wheat is more shrunken than in the
and upwards are frequent in Morrow
Umati1la and Union counties; in the
latter county, Baker, Wallowa and in
terror counties, harvesting and threshing
is we'll along. Reports indicate yields
above the average and above the expec-
tations of the farmers in every county
The wheat has begun to move to sea-
board. Fruit continues plentiful. Grapes
are ripe in many localities.

The fire engine will need to be shipped

gen erously offered to lend us an engine
to take her place till she returns. Mr..
Lytle the obliging agent of the Union

in obtaining Tree rates for both engines
both ways. This is very kind of ali con-

A Crisis is Near

LONDON, Jan. THE foreign Office
has issued the following communlca
tion to the press in regard to the Beh
ring sea dispute:
The statements cabled respecting the
question between the British and
American governments are unfound-
ed.
"a dispatch was received Dec. 30th,
from Mr. Blaine. He made proposals
respecting the questions to be submit
ted for arbitration. With this eXcep-
tlon, no communication whatever has
been received from the United States
on this subject for the past three
weeks, and no communication has been
made to the Am erican government IN
the same period.
This communication was printed and
sent 70 all allnewspapers Offices and news
agencies in London, it being the evil
dent desire of the government to give
the document the widest publicity.
The foreign Office is the most conserVa-
tive department and the courss is
adopted in regard to the com munica-

usual methods of procedure and
strengthens the general belief that the
crisis is serious.
It is claimed that the preparations

dustry, 1900 persons being engaged
in this work in London alone.
Since the publication of the foreign
Office communication the United States

FATHER AN0 SON..
A Sensational Turn from Their Abode in
the Penitenttary.

A Sensational Turn from Their Abode in
the Penitentiary.
FRANKLIN. Ind. Jan. S.-The two
divorce suits filed in the circuit court here
by VIM. B. +. Law. Sr., and VIM. B. +.
Law, Jr.-father and snn-both confined
in the state prison south, at Jefferson
vile, asking legal separation form their
wives. Jennie and Alice, and possession
of Their children, has created decided
sensation.
They were sent to the penitentiary IN
September, 1888, for twelve years each,
for Jointly killing an old man and his
son, farmers, residing near then.
1t was in March, 1888, that old man
Barker and his son were found in the
field. not far from their rouse, each with
his throat cut from ear to ear, and two
bullet holes in each ones head. 1t was
evident the bullet holes in their heads
had been caused by shots fired IN their
dead bodlse after death. At the time
there was 10 clue to the perpetrators OF
the double murder. Several arrests were
made, but as no evidence could be found
against the various T lies, they were re-
leased one after another.
Some time after this, old man Law
and his son were suspected by detec-
tive. 1t was well known all over the
neighborhood that for a long time feud
had existed between the Law family and
the Barker family. The Laws, though,
stood we'll in the community. They
were, however, arrested. and after a
long and bitter trial convicted OF mur-
dering old man Barker and his son-but
the evidence was so circlmstantlal that
thir nec..s were saved fioln the rope and
they were sentenced to twelve years
each IN the penitentiary.
Not long after they began their SEN
tences in the penitentiary, old man Law
was granted a pension and arrearages,
amounting to large sum-nearly s5,-
600, and the young Law had fortune OF
$1,000 beeueathed to him by relative
who died, but neither the father nor son
ever sent anything home to support their
families. both of which live at and oc-
cupy the old Law homestead, near this
city, and earn a scanty living by attend
ing the farm from year to year.
The older Law has three children and
the son has one. In both complaints foc
divorce adultery is charged, and this is
the surprising part fit, for both the
ladies are above -eproach, the younger
defendant being the daughter Of one of
the most prominent citizens of Johnson
county.
Just what the two convicts want with
the custody of their children is hard to
understand. Both cases will be bitterly

Small PoY in Texas.

GALVESTON, Texas, Jan. S.-Dr.
Rutherford. the Texas Health Officer,
has ordered strict State quarantine
against San Antonio, Houston and
Yoakum on account of few cases of
smallpox at those points. No railway
can take any body away from those
places until Dr. Rutherford gives a
permission. In the Southern part OF
Texas smallpox exists nearly all the
time. II is said that San Antonio is
never without a case, but the disease
is usually confined to an unclean part
of the town inhabited by Mexicans. A
few cases have appeared at Houston
and one or two have been reported at
San Antonio. Galveston also has a
case and the people here are hourly
expecting to be shut off from commu-
nication with the outer world.

SHORT A!.HSBETWEENS STATESMEN
E1ectIy What aappennd when Senator
TToicctt Met tn. President.


Woicott Net th- President.
WARRINGTON, Jan. S-Seua;or Vol
colt is morr than ever aleGated frcn
the affections of PreSidenG Harrison
since be delivered his eloquent speech
in opposition to the force hIll, ara cor
dial relations are not apt to be soon
established between these two eminent
Republicans. Mr.. Wotcott has been a
severe critic of the President always.
and in his opposition has had the SYM
pathy of his colleague. Mr. Teller.
During the last session of Congress
Senator Wolcott took occasion, while
delivering a speech upon the silver
bill, to hit Mr.. Harrison some pretty
hard raps. This speech followed close
ly upon widely published interview
with Henry Wolcott, of Denver, the
senator's brother, in which some very
caustic things were SAD about the
President, and the contempt which
Western Republicans feel for him,
caused the relations between the
President and the young senator to
become very much strained.
A few days ago, just before he de-
livered his speech against the force
bill, Mr.. Wolcott was persuaded to call
at the White House to ply his respects.
Some of his colleagues, older in years
and accordingly with more discretion
than he, convinced him that it was
only proper that, as a senator, he should
wait upon TIE President and offer the
assurances of his most distinguished
esteem and consideration. The young
senator accordingly went over to the
executive mansion at a seasonable hour
one morning, sent in his card, and
after waiting in the ante room some
time with lot of miscellaneous peo-
pie, as is the custom in this free re-
public, was ushered into the presence
! of the President. Mr.. Harrison stood
at the corner of his desk, with his feet
planted firmly and his head thrown
back upon his square shoulders as If
anticipating an attack. The senator
grasped with more or less cordlality,
the hand of the President, and said:
"Good morning Mr.. President. l have
come to pay you my respects and to
wish you the compliments of the sea-
son."
"Yes?" said the President.
"It is pleasant day" said the sena-
ator.
"Yes," said the President.
can agreeable contrast to the terri
bic hot spell during the session last
summer" said the senator,
Still, 1 have seen hotter summers
than last summer was" said the Presi-
dent.
SIS it possible?" said the senator,
"Yes; 1 have knowni it to be so hot
in Washington some summers that the
pavements melted intoa a soft, sticky
Substance" said the President.
Il hope we shall have no such wealth
er as that during the coming summer"
said the senator.
II hope not" said the President.
"Good morning." said the senator.
"Good morning" said the President;
and as Mr.. Wolcott disappeared
through the door, Mr.. Harrison
brought his head back to its normal
position, released his hold upon the
desk, and, with the air of conqueror,
resumed the chair that be had vacated
upon receiving the senator's card.
