PORTLAND MARKET.


With the fruit dealers the amount of
business done was much in excess of the
first part of the week. The gutted con-
dition OF the market is for the present
over with. Watermelons drag heavily.
The quantity of peaches in the market
is very small, and prices are correspond
ingly stiff. Grapes are in over supply,
are hard to dispose of. Pears and plums
are plentiful, and meet with only fair
sale. Vegetable market is we'll supplied
with every variety, especially potatoes
and cabbage, the latter being drug in
the market. The amount of oats on
hand is larger than at any previous time,
and decline is anticipated. No change
is noted in the market for dairy produce.
Eggs are higher. Butter is little easier,
receipts of Oregon being on the increase.
In other lines of wholesale trade there is
no particular change as regards the
amount OF business done. Quotations
on staple articles remain the same, and
no change is likely to take place until
the regular fall business commences.
WHEAT.
Trading is very quiet, and there is lit
tie change to be noted in the general
condition of the local market. The ex-
port demand is good, but holders ask
prices that are away above an export
basis and business is consequently
checked. Foreign markets are dull but
not quotably any lower.

MATTERS MIXED.
Tsg EXPECTED SENSATION IN TRE COKE
YIELDS THIS WEEK
Will be the Promised Importation Of Seven Thousand
Workmsn, Including Negroes and ItalianS-Ct-
izsns Of That Section Indignant-MOney
Ponring in to Aid Strikers.

ScoTTDALE, PA, May 3.-The ex-
pected sensation of the week is the
promised importation of 1000 workmen
from different parts of the East. 1t is
said many of them are negroes and
Italians. The operators have little to
say, except that they must run their
plants somehow, while the citizens gen.
orally are indignant that steady, skilled
labor is about TO be driven from the field
by this threatenedinvaSion by ignorant,
and by no means desirable laborerS.
Money is rapidly coming into the
miners hands, and It's effect was shown
to-day at several mass meetings, which
were attended by men from Jimtown
and Kyle, who promised to come out in
the morning on assurances Of support.
Some 600 evictions will be made this
week in order to mike:room for the new
men coming into the region, but labor
officials say they will be able to prevent
the bulk Of them from going to work.
Tonight, Rev. Father Lambing, a
power among the Catholics of the re-
cion, severely denounced the labor lead
ers. and socialiStic element from the
pulpit. He also created sensation by
repeating his advice that the men re-
turn TO work.
At the Polish celebration in the Opera
House he also reiterated those views.

A TYPHOID SCoURGE
Strikes Chicago - Impure Water Two
Hundred Cases in Hospitals.

CHICAGO, May 3.-Once more Chicago
is visited by dread disease, which, un-
less promptly checked, will become cpl
demic. This time it is typhoid fever in
its most virulent form that has made
its appearance. Already hundreds of
persons are Frustrated by the fever and
the number is increasing at an alarming
rate.
A certain number Of fever cases are
to be expected at this season of the
year, but that typhoid should put in an
appearance and gain such strong
foothold so early in the season is alarm
ing even to the medical fraternity.
At present there are nearly two hun
dred cases reported in the several hos
pitfalls. Most Of these cases have been
received during the past week. Each
day the number OF applicants for admis-
sion to the hospitals is increasing and a
majority of the applicants are suffering
from typhoid or related fevers. The
hospitals are taxed to their utmost ca
pacity and several of them have been
obliged to turn away patients.
This condition of affairs clearly shows
that the disease has begun to assume a
serious aspect and the records show
that it is gaining ground rapidly. This
is not only found to be true of the hos
pitalS but nf all parts of the city.
The physicians, both at the hospitals
and in private practice, say that they
have not known so many cases of ty-
phoid to exist at one time for number
OF years. 1t is not only the great num-
Der of cases that is alarming, but the
virulent form the disease has assumed
that makes it unusually difficult to
handle successfully.
This epidemic is believed to be due to
the impure condition Of the water
which the public is compelled to drink.
The water from the lake is the best in
the world in its native purity, but when
the river is discharging into the lake,
as it is now, and the supply is drawn
from the shore intake it is absolutely too
filthy for use.

HATTIE FLEW HIGH.
An Ohio Girl Robs Her Foster Father in
Order to Buy Fine Clothes.

LOGAN, O., May 3.-Nine years ago
Mr.. Ed Price, prominent saloon
keeper of Logan, took Hattie Owens, s
years of age, living at New Straitsville,
to keep as one of his own family. Last
November Mr.. Price placed 50, 100 in a
can, which he gave to his wife. She
buried it in the cellar, supposing that
no one but her husband knew anything
of its hiding place; but yesterday, when
Mr.. Price had occasion to use the
money, he found it missing. He soon
found that Hattie had been flying pretty
high. Seven hundred dollars worth OF
goods had been purchased Of one dry
goods store. He accused her, and, after
awhile, she confessed to having taken
the money.
She has been spending this money
since Christmas, buying wraps, dresses,
millinery goods, jewelry and other ar
ticles, great deal of which went to
Young friends. She has now two fifty
dollar dresses in the hands of one OF
our dressmakers. The dresses to have
been finished to-day, and she was going
to Newark tonight, but instead she
went to Jail. She told Mr.. Price this
Afternoon that he would find the sum
of $3.50 in a stove pipe in one OF the
rooms. Hattie has spent about $1,000
since she found the money last Christ

OF ITALY ON THE RECENT LYNCHINGS AT

The Latest Correspondence Between Rudini and In

Panied at Secretary Blaines Position-Ital-
ians Virtually Throw Up the Sponge.

ROME, May 3.-The Green book on
the New Orleans lynching comprises "A
dispatches, dated from March IA to
April 2s. 1t shows that the Italian
government, from the commencement,
persevered in asking that criminal pro-
ceedings be taken against the lynchers,
and that an indemnity be paid to the
families Of the victims.
The expression drought to justice"
recurs in the official dispatches, as well
as in Baron Fava's private letters. The
principal communications have already
been published. After Mr.. Blaine's
note of April IA, the volume concludes
with the telegram from the Marquis di
Rudini to the Marquis Imperiali, the
text of which is as follows:

tate to do, of a portion of telegram OF
mine communicated to him in strict
confidence, in order to get rid Of ques-
tion clearly defined in our official docu-
ments, which alone possess a diplomatic
value"
"Mr. Blaine is right when he claims
the payment Of indemnity to the fami-
lies OF the victims is dependent upon
proof of the violation of the treaty, but
we shrink to think that he considers
such violation still needs proof.
''It is time to break off this bootess
controversy. Public opinion, the SOW
ereign Judge, will know how to indicate
an equitable solution OF this grave
problem. We have affirmed, and we
again affirm our first rights.

ernment. Your duties henceforward
are solely restricted to dealing with
current business"

NEW YORK, May 3.-While evening
devotions were in progress at the
Church of the Most Holy Trinity, in
Montrose avenue, Williamsburg, neat
ly dressed young woman walked up the
centre aisle and presented herself at
the altar rails and began to pray.
The loudres Of her tones and the We
hemence of her gestures disturbed the
congregation and excited the attention
Of the pastor, Father May. He motion
cd TO one of the ushers to quiet the de-
votee. AS the usher started to carry
out the directions the woman was seen
to lift bottle to her lips.
Before she could drink any OF the con-
tents the uShers led her from the church
to the vestibule. There by order OF
Father Mar she was detained until the
arrival OF Policeman Uhl, OF Captain
Ennis command.
At the Stagg street police station she
said she was Henrietta Sulock, and that
she had no home. A charge of vagrancy
was made sagainSt her, and she was
locked up. The bottle seen in her pos
session in the church could not be

A MUSEUM OF RARE CURIOS.
The West Virginia Historical Society
Has a Fine Collection.

CHARLESTON, w. VA, May 3.-The
progress made by the State Historical
Society will doubtless surprise the State
solons when they meet two years hence.
Prof. Lewis, Colonel Bayne, General
Oxley and DR.. Hale have been engaged
since Thursday of last week in arrang-
ing and classifying articles at present in
possession of the Society's cramped
quarters in the room Of the Speaker OF
the House. There is quite large col
lection of valuables, and large books,
flint muskets that saw service in the
war of 1912, and the entire correspond
ence between President Lincoln and
Edwin Nj. Stanton, as Secretary Of
War, with the State authorities, relative
to the formation of a State organization
of West Virginia.
The general orders issued by General
RosecranS from Gauley Bridge to.Colonel
Light6urn, from Charleston, in 1861,
are among the collection, together with
a complete record Of the Federal and
State soldiers during the war. The So
ciety hopes to collect complete record
of West Virginia Confederate soldiers,
and asks all who have any papers in
their possession to contribute or lend
them for this purpose. d.. Hale has
contributed one or more bullets picked
up by himself from the battlefield of
Waterloo. The war records are gener-
ally from the Adjutant Generals office,
while there are a number of most in
tereSting articles contributed by private
individuals.

BLAINE's PRESENT AMBITION.
He Would Rather Establish Reciprocity
Than Be President.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-RepreSenta-
tive Julius Caesar Burrows, of Michigan,
who is in this city, has had several con-
ferences with prominent Republicans,
and is in a position to speak with knowl-
edge of the political situation 70 far as
the candidacy Of Mr.. Harrison and Mr..
Blaine for the Presidential nomination
in 1892 is concerned. In conversation
with a correspondent Mr.. Burrows said
to-day:
I cannot say have discussed this
matter lately with either Mr.. Blaine or
the President, and it is therefore not of
personal knowledge of their views that
l speak, but l am satisfied that Mr..
Blaine will not be candidate for the
Presidential nomination in 1892.
"In the second place l am satisfied
that Mr.. Blaine does not want to be
President. For many years he has had
in mind the great work Of binding
together the countries of the Western
Hemisphere with the strong bonds of
closer relations. Reciprocity is not a
new idea with Mr.. Blaine. am salts

feel that it is greater thing to be Sec

exponent of reciprocity than to be Presi-

FEARS THE STILETT0.
A Brother of One of the Alleged Hen
messy Murderers a Mark.


New ORLEANS, May 3.-Philip Pa
torno, a prominent Italian citizen Of
New Orleans, and brother of Ex-Coun-
Gilman Patorno and brother of Charles
Patorno, one of the men charged with
the killing of Hennessy, appealed to the
Mayor and Chief of Police to-day for
protection against an Italian society OF
which he was formerly member,
charging that it is organized on the
same basis as the Mafa, and that it has
been determined to kill him because he
brought suit against it. Paterno's
petition to the Mayor recites that
he was a member of the society, Clio
vanni Bersaglieri, and when sick ap-
peaed to it for the relief to which he was
entitled, and when refused, brought
suit against it for the money. This ac-
tion OF Patorno Is antagonistic to the
views Of the Sicilians, who consider the
man who goes before the court as a
traitor.
Patorno was accordingly denounced
before the Giovanni Bersaglieri by one
Sancuolo for the course he took. He
insisted that the manner in which he
was denounced is equivalent to his con-
demnaton to death, and contains
threats against his life, and he there
fore appeals to the Mayor for protec-
tion. He says that he has no peace be-
cause of the threats to kill him.
"Rather than invoke the Malta methods
by lying in wait for those men and
killing them," he explained, II prefer
to address myself to the authorities. l
am in daily fear OF assassination. If
anything happens to me, if / am MUIR
dered, warn the public that there are
only three men who are thirsting for
my blood, and they are my brother An
tonic. Giovanni Lascuolo, the party
who brought the charges against me,
and Mr.. Digiovanni. If am murdered
look for my assassin among those three. "
Patorno further stated that he would
endeavor to have the charter Of the
society repealed, because the course it
pursued in threatening members was
sufficient to annul the charter.

OH! THE PITY OF IT.
THE DAUGHTER OF A WEALTHY IRON MANU-
FACTUREa OF CHICAGO
Commits Suicide in Drunken Pit in Flat in New
York, After Quarrel With Her Equally IntOx-
icatsd Sister, Who Was Too Drunk to
Remember the Circumstances.

New YORK, May 3.-Geergie Airing
ton, blonde young woman, who is said
to be the daughter Of wealthy iron
manufacturer in Hyde Park, Chicago,
ended drinking bout last night by
committing suicide in a fiat. She had
been wild girl for the past three
years.
Yesterday George called for her sis
ter who lives in fiat, and invited her
to go to matinee. George had plenty
of money, and in the afternoon the
women drank five pints of champagne.
They fell in with some of the men
who hang around Roster & Bials, and
drank more wine. Annie then went
home. George returned an hour later
with man, and Annie, so she says,
scolded her for bringing strange man
to the house. Georgie's friend left her
then and the sisters Quarrelled for an
hour. Both were very drunk.
About 8 o'clock George staggered
back to. the kitchen in the fiat, and,
telling Susie Yates, the colored servant,
that she was going to die, she took a
small bottle Of carbolic acid from a
cupboard and attempted to drink the
contents.
According to the story of the negress,
if Annie had not interfered the girls
life could have been saved. Susie Yates
says that when she attempted to take
the bottle Of carbolic acid from George,
Annie grabbed her (Susie) and pulled
her to one side of the room, holding her
until George had emptied the bottle.
Annie denies this, but admits she was
too drunk to remember much about it.
When the Roosevelt Hospital ambulance
arrived George was dead.

OF Germany, Holland and Switzerland
were to-day scenes Of demonstrations
OF workmen in favor OF the eight hour
movement. In Hamburg 10000 persons,
one-tenth of them the wives and sweet
hearts Of the workmen, paraded through

workmen's societies keeping excellent
order. In the line were many bands
and banners an1 number of choral
societies took part in the procession.
After short meeting in the public
park, at which appropriate resolutions
were adopted, the crowd dispersed and
devoted the remainder of the day to
music and dancing. No disorder was
reported anywhere.
In the Belgian mining districts dis
order still prevails, and many telephone
wires have been cut and windows
smashed. Meetings were held at Liege,
Seraing and other places to denounce
the action of the Brussels labor union,
which sent delegates to various centers
to delay or prevent strikes. At these
meetings it was decided to disregard
| the advice of the unions and commence
general strike tomorrow. A state OF
siege has been proclaimed in the villages
around Liege.

FOURMIER RIOT.
1t is Turned Into Matter of Great
Political Significance.

1t is Turned Into Matter of Great
Political Significance.
PARIS, May 3.-The details Of the
labor trouble at Fourmier immensely
heightened the political importance OF
the incident. The fact that six women,
several children and eight men were
killed on the spot, while twenty
were seriously wounded, several
fatally, gives the affair the char
acter of massacre. The soldiers were
merely exposed to stone throwing, but
they replied with successive volleys from
their new Lebel rifles, inflicting fright
full wounds on their victims. The
houses exposed to the fire were riddled
and there is every sign that reckless
and wanton inhumanity was shown by
the troops.
Fourmer tonight is practically in
state of siege. Cavalry patrol the
streets and are everywhere greeted
with yells OF reprobation from excited
mobs of men and women. The tension
of feeling may be judged from the fact
that the military are hailed with cries
OF "Vive Prussia"
A section of the Left. and the Social
istic and Boulangist deputies join in de-
manding vote OF censure against Nj.
Constans, Minister Of the Interior, as
responsible for the slaughter. A motion
to that effect will be made In the Cham
Der of Deputies tomorrow. Parlia-
mentary circles view the affair as
shaking the position of the Minister.
The movement of the German and
Austrian governments to isolate France
commercially begins to alarm the
French Ministers more seriously. Dis
patches from the French Embassy at
Vienna state that Germany has opened
negotiations with Russia with the view
of arranging for Russian cooperation in
the projected commercial union.
