The sevcrcst storm that has visited
this section OF tho country for IL pretty
long timo occurred yesterday forenoon,
and while no damage worth speaking
OF was done in the main part Of this
city, this was doubtless due solely to
tho shelter from tho gallo afforded by
the hills which hem it in. North and
south the wind was not only most
severe, but had more disastrous results.
The rain was OF that heavy, dashing
kind which always brings down from
the hillsides big deposit OF yellow
mud, and oyer!lows the sewer traps,
leaving little lakes OF water at each
street intersection, and when this
rccedea, ridges Of mud and debris like

The only grave damage done in town

that portion OF the bric!; wall fronting

demolished and scattered in the form OF
debris over 4 considerable section OF tho

i'll the middle OF Main street, right on
the stree. car track, blockading it for
quite awhile. The worst result, how.

came up on the Seattle, Lake Shore q Eastern
train Friday afternoon and Transferred to the
Canadian Pacific train. They being without
papers the conductor refused to take
them across the line. The Canadian
collector, Mcdonald, offered to bond
them to Vancouver under charge of the con-
duetor, but the conductor refused to take charge
of them. Fhey claimed to be on the way to
China and were willing to pay the
500 entrance fees, but had no bag
gage, and though purporting to live at
Salem, Or, were very well acquainted
with the surrounding country. The Seattle,
Lake Shore & Eastern conductor said they had
boarded his train at Licking station, q little
stopping place in the dense timber dis
trict twelve miles south Of here. Gus
toms Officer Snyder then took them
into custody and sent them to the New Whatcom
Jail under charge of the Bellingham Bay & Brit

there today Collector Snyder is confident he has
seen OF them before and thinks the arrest will
develop something. Many suspicious move
ments have been made lately and it is thought
arrangement have been made to pilot
through some of the Cinnamon who came
over on the Empress of India, which
landed at Vancouver on Wednesday last.
There is a large camp of Cinnamon at Abottsford,
four miles north OF here, who are ostensibly
cutting wood for a living. Visits to the camp
have been frequent by outside Cinnamon. The

Received With Enthusiasm by Port
Townsend and Victoria Citizens.
PORT TOWNSEND, July 2S.-lSpecial. THE
new steamer Victorian arrived from Portland
this morning about $3.50. The fog was.thick and
1t took almost an hour from the time the first
whistle was heard until she doomed up off the
Union wharf The triangle gong was kept beat
ing continually to guide the beautiful craft to
her berth. Captain J. w. Troup brought the
Victorian in very skillfully. She had but few
passengers. When the Olympian arrived later
she brought over from Victoria Mayor John
Grant, the aldermen and numerous other citi-
zens OF the British Columbia city. These landed
1t the wharf, where they were received by Mayor
Harry Tibbais and councilmen The whole
company proceeded on board the Victorian.
The presentation of flags purchased by the
Victoria citizens took place in the ladies' saloon
OF the new steamer Mayor Grant made the
presentation. There are ensgns, burgee and a
full code of signals. The mayor made very
appropriate speech, dwelling upon the cordial
feelings existing between the Canadians and
their American cousins. He said the two coun-
tries would go on in the march of civilization
together ahead OF all Others He thought Ore
gon and Washington should be proud of the
noble craft turned out by them. He presented
its colors to Captain Troup on behalf of the
citizens of Victoria
Captain Troup responded in a few remarks,
thanking all concerned in the matter and &C
cepting the handsome present in the name OF
the Union Pacific company

ing ARRAY on High street on the afternoon of
February % last was convicted this morning OF
murder in the second degree. The trial has
been in progress since May II. The crime was
the direct result of personal journalism.
When the clerk began to read the verdict there
was highly sensational scene. When he read
"1ndictment for murder in the first degree,
Mrs P. ]. Elliott thought that meant guilty of
murder in the first degree, gave a suppressed
scream and fell back in her chair. AS the clerk
reached the words, "Guilty of murder in the
second degree" Miss Marony arose, gave vent to
a cry and fell back in fainting fit Mrs. w. J.
Elliott was very pale, but made no demonstra-
ton. w. J. Elliott had youngster in his lap
when the verdict was being read, and he covered
the child's eyes and mouth SO that it could not
see or make an outcry.
As the verdict of the jury was read Elliott be-
came so enraged that he pulled the G. A. r. but
ton from the lapel of his coat and threw it
spitefully in the direction of the jury Elliott's
wife and children escorted him to the Jail,
where a fearful scene was enacted. The COM
ments OF the crowd were various, the general
sense being one of relief that the long agony
was over, and only few expressed dissatisfaction
when the tenor of the verdict became known
By the laws of Ohio murder in the second de-
gree is punishable by life imprisonment, the
court having no alternative. Notice of a motion
for new trial was made, and so sentence was
not passed. The court fixed next Saturday as
the time for hearing arguments on the motion
for q new trial.
