A Missing Merchants Body Found in the
Willamette River.
PORTLAND, Ore, May 3.-The body of
William Barber, merchant of Lebanon,
Ore., was found in the Willamette
river today. He left home about three
weeks ago, and came to this city, having
in his possession several hundred dol
lars, with which he intended buying
goods. His long absence from home
alarmed his friends, who notified
the authorities. Today while the
men employed at Governor Pennoyer's
sawmill were rafting logs, Barber's
body was found. 1t had evidently been
in the water about two weeks. An ex-
animation of the body showed that he
had been shot through the head. His
skull was also badly crushed, leaving no
doubt that the man had been murdered
and thrown into the river. The money
and papers were all missing, and the
only thing left by which he could be
identified, was small scarf pin. There
is no clue to the murderer.

Fires Raging with Great Severity in
Northern Pennsylvania.
ERIE, Pa, May 3.-Forest fires are
raging with great severity along the line
of the Philadelphia and Erie road, and
it is almost impossible for trainmen to
endure the suffocating smoke in some
parts of the mountain passes. In the
vicinity of Clarendon great trouble is
experienced in keeping the fire
away from the town. At Sheffield
the owners OF the oil derricks are
fighting fires, and have so far
managed to save everything except one
or two rigs. At Ludlow the mountains
are full OF fire. At Wilcox fires are run
ming up one side of the mountain and
down the other. Around Johnsonburg
and Ridgway fires are raging furiously,
but the timber does not come in close
to the town, and they are not in immi-
nent danger. Game, including deer, is
chased in herds into the small lumber
ing towns.
