Another letter bearing on the status
of the railroad question has been re-
ceived at this ctfice Whether the
authors views are sound or not. 1t is
left for the trustees of the subsidy to
determine. The communication is as
follows:
Astoria, June 3, 1893.
Editor Astorian: | want to give my
endorsement to the communication OF
"a Citizen.'thak appears in your paper
yesterday morning, l can see no earth
ly reason for giving Mr. Remington
three months more time to make q
start in the railroad he has now had
in his hands nearly nine months. Three
months more would give it to him till
September, and then the rainy season
sets in and no real work Is possible till
next year again. It would be virtually
turning the whole future of the town
over to Mr.. Remington from the fall
of 1892 till the spring Of 1894. | cannot.
for one, see what he has done to war
rant such surrender to him. No
money has been raised, no debts have
been paid off, no work done. We are
just where we were nine months ago
except that the railroad enterprise has
been blaclS-eyed by repeated failures.
Let some one else try 1t. The road,
am satisfied, can be built by proper
work in the proper directions. Re-
spectfully, ANOTHER CITIZEN.

ANOTHER BANK FAILURE.


Chicago, June 3. Herman Schaffner
4 Co., private bankers, have made an
assignment. The firm was the largest
private concern IN Chicago or the
northwest, dealing exclusively ". com
mercial pe9er Tho hrrl was also
about the Oldest of its kind In Chicago.
No statement of the banks affairs
was filed with the application for re-
ceiver The assignment was made
to the American Trust and
Savings Bank. To add TO the excite
ment, it was rumored that schaffner
had committed suicide Investigation
has developed the fact that the assign
ment directly resulted in the disappear
ance of Hermann Schaffner, the senior
member of the firm, 1t Is said that the
bank had been in sore straits for sew
eral days, and that its difficulties
weighed very heavily on Schaffner's
mind. He left the bank yesterday after
noon and has not been seen since,
though diligent search has been made
for him. His friends fear mental aber-
ration. The cause Of the failure was too
much commercial paper.

WORK OF HUMAN FIENDs.

Port Costa, Cal, June S.-The steam
er Bawnmore, unloading coal here for
the Southern Pacific company, has had
another narrow escape from destruc-
ton. When the bottom of one of the
wings was reached. a valise was un-
covered containing fifteen pounds of
dynamite and a cooked revolver in
geniously arranged so that when the
ship should be tossed by the waves or
the coal removed. the trigger would be
pulled and an explosion result BY a
happy chance small piece of dyna-
mite got under the hammer, thus pre-
venting the discharge of the gun. The
supposition is that the dynamite was
placed In the steamer by Union sailors.

WILL BE PROSECUTED.

Springfield, ILL.,. June g. Governor
Altgeld is determined to make an ex-
ample of the lynchers at Decatur if
possible. He has issued proclamation
denouncing the lynching in the most
vigorous language as a disgrace to
civilization, and blot upon the fair
name Of the state. The governor
calls upon all officers Of the law. es-
pecially of Macon county. as well as
good citizens, to do all in their power
to bring the perpetrators of the crime
to Justice He offers reward Of $500
each for apprehension and conviction
of every man who helped to break the
doors Of the jail, and overpower the
officers, and who assisted in killing the
prisoner The state attorney said he
would at once commence vigorous
against those participate
ing IN the lynchiug.

Governor Altgeld Incensed at the Ac-
ton of the Lynchers.
Decatur, ILL.,, June "a mob this
morning lynched a negro charged with
criminally assaulting Mrs. Hubdill last
Monday near Mount Zion
Owing to the threats of lynching
earlier in the day a force of twelve
men were put inside the Jail, and
another force outside About three
O'Clock twenty-five armed men
marched to the Jail in a solid body and
demanded admission. This was re-
fused, and the wooden outside door
was at once battered down, while the
crowd looked on without protest. Once
inside the lynchers opened the iron
and steel doors with cold chisel. The
city marshal appeared and forced his
way inside, but was kicked in the
stomach by the lynchers and hustled
out, after which he subsided. Finally
the lynchers reached the cell of the
negro, whose name was Sam Bush.
They took him to the telegraph pole
and swung him up. He protested his
innocence to the last. The men made
no attempt to consult as to his iden-
tity The most remarkable feature of
the whole affair seems to be that
twenty-five men could march into
town of over a thousand inhabitants
and without show of resistance bat
ter down the doors of the Jail and
hang human being.

Washington, June 3. At no time
since specie payments were resumed,
on January 1st, 1879, has the net gold
in the treasury OF the United States
been so low as today The amount is
$S9,9S9,2l7. On January list, 1879, 1t was
$1l4,19S,5 $50, Since that period It has
gradually increased until March 1888,
when 1t reached s21S,S1S, 900, which was
high-water mark. Since then the net
ment gold holdings Of the treasury has
been on declining scale. While no
uneasiness is felt at the treasury de-
partment because Of the continued loss
from the treasury. still Secretary Car
Isle is not unmindful of the fact that
a limit may be reached where the con-
fidence reposed in the treasury by the
people may be shaken. How to re-
plete the treasury with gold has been
a problem seriously considered by the
administration for some time. An is
sue of bonds isthe usual remedy sug-
bChlCut Dul II 10 hliOWll lhtib lAiO ~ NoA-
dent is not in favor Of this alternative
except as last resort, and even if
they were issued the treasury officials
are not by any means confident that
the treasury gold repleted in this way
will long continue. 1t is contended
that this simply means the govern
ment borrwoin gold at interest, with no
assurance that the gold so obtained
will remain in the treasury longer than
the time necessary to take 1t out The
suggestion has been made that the
secretary of the treasury has power to
issue greenbacks outstanding to the ex-
tent of the gold thus exchanged. The
treasury officials said the idea was not
a new one, and had been advanced
at different periods in the past ten
days. No law on the statute books is
more stringent than that relating to
greenbacks. The secretary of the
treasury has no discretion either to in
crease or diminish the volume Of green
backs

Washington, June 3.-An important
disclosure as to systematic under
ground railroad arrangement for
smuggling Chinese into the United
States by way of Canada is contained
in a report Just made to the treasury
department by Special Agent ]. s.
Smith, stationed at Boston, Mass. He
reports the arrest on q charge Of fraud
ulentiy introducing Chinese into the
United States Of five persons, namely:
Charles L. Smith, Of West Charleston,
Vermont, willis Hopkins. Of West
Charleston, VT, Chin Poy, of Lydon-
vile, VT, and Frank c. Park, of St
Johnsbury, VT. Warrants have been
issued for the arrest of A. r. Miles,
cf Stanistead, and Frank Ross. of
Charleston, VT. There is evidence that
Miles, who undoubtedly is the leading
spirit, also engaged in smuggling
opium and other merchandise. The
prisoners were taken to Burlington,
VT, and arraigned before United States
Commissioner Johnson, and in default
Of bail, all were remanded to Jail. It
is believed that one of the largest and
best organized gangs that ever operat-
ed in New England has been un-
earthed, and the arrests are looked
upon as Of great Importance to the
government.

Omaha, Neb. June 3.-The city re-
ceived a dual visitation from the ele-
ments this evening. All day rain was
fallin gintermittently with d storm
blowing from the southeast Shortly
before o'clock the city was sub
merged by one Of the most disastrous
floods ever experienced. The rain was
accompanied by heavy electrical dis
play and high winds, and in the midst
of the flood came a fire that entailed a
loss of nearly $25OO0O, with the addi-
tional horror of four deaths and many
persons injured.
The dead now known are George
Coulter, B. j. Morris, Cox Morrissey.
All are firemen.
When the storm was at its height
flames burst from the fifth story of
the building occupied by the Shiver-
ick Furniture Company, on Farnum
street. In response to a general alarm
all the companies Of the department
responded, but the fire was beyond
control 1t entailed loss of $20O, 900,
fully insured. The building west of
the Shiverick building was a two story
structure occupied by Ed Maeurer's
saloon and restaurant. On the top of
this building six firemen gathered, the
better to fight the flames. While they
were there there the west wall of the
Shiverick building fell outward. Two
of the firemen heard the cry of horror
from the crowd and leaped from the
building, only to be buried by the
bricks on the sidewalk. They were
quickly rescued from their perilous
predicament. The falling walls
crushed the two-story building like an
egg shell, and the four firemen on the
roof were carried down to an awful
death. George Coulter superintendent
OF the fire and police telegraph system,
was exrtacated from the ruins, crushed
to pulp. Captain Cox of the hose
company No. z, was still alive when
found beside Coulter, but his injuries
resulted in death shortly after his re-
moval. B. j. Morris, the pipe man of
No. z, and Pipeman Morrissey of the
same company, were found side by side
still grasping the nozzle, which they
had clung to even in death. There are
thought to be number of others in
the wreck
