IA Terrible Tragedy.

Saturday evening In Portland Con-
rad ]. Smith, book-keeper for Levy,
6peigel 4 Co.. was shot and probably
fatally injured by G. H. Cove, a real
estate dealer. Cove then shot and
killed himself. About all that is
known as to the Cause Of the tragedy is
contained in the following letter found
upon the person Of the deceased;
Saturday, March, %, 1898.
10 Whom 1t May Concern,--
Since am about to attempt a some
what desperate feat, at some risk to
myself, my life perhaps, / pencil the
following for the information of those
who are interested or think they
are.
"Five years ago next August, about
the l4th, G. J. smith, while / was out
Of the city, began rooming at my
home. AT the said time said Smith
was business partner Of mine. Ab,ut
week after he began rooming at my
house, he entered my wife's bedroom
after she had retired, and attempted to
rape her person. He was Immediately
and unceremoniously dismissed from
her room, but fearing business entang-
lements, she failed to do entirely as
she should, but allowed him to remain
in the house until my return, when
she told me all. ] kicked him out at
once, but did not do more, because /
wished oavoid entangling my wife in
o way which might reflect more or
less upon her. i of course knew all
concerning the matter, and l hereby
swear by the Almighty God that /
know (so far as my intellect allows)
that my wife told me all, since she in
formed me at once regarding the mat
ter. ] have brooded on the fact Of q
business partner SO basely acting until
] am nearly wild.
"A now propose to castrate said
Smith or kill him tonight, entirely
optional with him. In case / must
take his life, | will also, to avoid
further entanglements, take my own.
@. II. COVE"
Smith denies having assaulted Mrs.
Cove. The latter, who was away
from home at the time, has thus
far refused to talk about the awful
deed at all.

The Pendleton Tribune says: From
Mr.. John Thatcher, conductor on
the run between Pendleton and La
Grande, is learned the details of the
finding yesterday Of body in the last
stages Of decomposition at the Ia
Grande depot, the body being packed
in trunk,
Among the late arrivals at La aGrande
was a woman Of the class commonly
known as FAST The woman brought
with her trunks which she ordered
left at the depot baggage room until
she secured for herself house. The
desired location having been found, the
services of drayman were engaged
and the trunks brought to the house,
and here the mystery commences.
Both the drayman and baggageman
had noticed and remarked on the Pc
cuIiar odor arising from one Of the
trunks, without, however, suspecling
its CHASTITY contents. The woman also
detected the stencil before the trunks
were inside the house, and complicated
matters by denying all knowledge of
or ownership in the trunk and refusing
to accept tt. Nothing remained for
the draynan butte return the trunk
10 the depot.
Here 1t was opened and the mutila-
ted remains Of a human being, so adj
vanced in the last stages Of decomposi-
tion as to make Identification impossi-
bic, were disclosed to the gaze Of the
Mortified on-lookers. The leaving Of
Mr.. Thatcher's train prevented him
from learning further details as to the
disposal Of the remains or the solving
Of the mystery connected with the ar
rival Of the trunk at La Grande.
