Two Autopsies Fail to Reveal the Cause
Tho Doctors Puzzled.

Two Aut0psies Fail to Reveal the Cause
Tho Doctors Puzzled.
: The cause that led to the sudden death
of T. F. Langstaff, the Michigan millman,
Thursday morning. while waiting for DIR.
c. A. Smith at his rooms in the Colman
block, is a mystery that two autopsies
have failed to explain. The examination
of the organs Of the body has been COM
plete, but strange as it may seem, suf-
ficient cause has not become apparent.
The heart and brain, which are the two
organs that must be affected to produce
sudden death, are to all appearances in a
normal condition with slight exceptions
not sufficient to produce sudden collapse.
The dura mater was attached to the skull
at the top of the head, but only slightly
and in small place. The brain was
healthy and the amount of gray matter
indicated a man OF superior intelligence.
The heart stood the closest examination
and was empty when reached. The main
trouble found was with the liver, which
was emerged. congested, soft and tore
easily. In the lungs was a slight cal
careous deposit and the two lobes were
slightly adhered to the ribs. These were
the only indications of disease in the
body.
The contents Of the stomach were in a
semi-digested condition and to all appear
ances normal. In order however. to make
the case complete an analysis will be
made. DR.. J. b. Loughary said yesterday:
II is the only case l ever met with where a
sufficient cause oil death could not be found.
The deceased was a wonderfully well preserved
man and with the exception of the liver trouble,
which could not cause sudden death, had no
trouble that DIR. Horton and myself have been
able to find don't know but il is one of those
cases where the heart simply stops pumping

There is no reason why anyone should
be deferred from visiting the Worlds fair
by reason of possible inconvenience and
uncertainty attending the securing of
satisfactory hotel accommodations.
The Northern Pacific railroad will in
due time publish low excursion rates to
Chicago and return for this occasion, while
its double daily passenger train service,
including through sleeping cars of both
classes STANDARD and tourist) to Chicago,
will as usual be at the head of the list in
every particular.
To help you in fixing in advance upon
your place of residence while attending
the Worlds fair, we have placed in the
hands OF our agent at your station book
compiled by perfectly trustworthy par
ties, called "Homes for Visitors to the
Worlds FAIR" This little book, which
You can purchase for so cents, contains a
list of about 1000 private families who will
accommodate visitors in Chicago during
the time of the fair. viz: May LIST to Oc-
tober Both: gives their names and ad-
dresses. and number Of rooms each will
have to spare. The book also gives list
of the hotels and their locations; has
twelve full-page. large-scale maps. each
representing a section of the city, so that
with this information before him the in
tending visitor himself can, at leisure,
select the quarter of the city in which he
would prefer to stop, corresponding in ad-
vance with one or more families in that
locality with regard to rates and the ac-
commodations desired.

NEW York, March 1o.-A fight is going
on for the possession of the books of the
Oregon Pacific Railroad Company. On
March 4 T. Egerton Hogg, Of New York,
was displaced as receiver by Judge Fuller
ton. Of the district court Of Oregon. and
+. w. Hadley, of Corvallis. Or. was APP
pointed in his place. The papers in the
matter, officially certified. have not yet
arrived here. Fearing that the books
would be sent out of the state. the bond
holders committee who procured the re-
moval of Hogg. today. through the law
firm: Of Parrish & Pendieton, sued out q
writ of replevin and had the sheriff put in
charge of the Office at A. Williams street.
Mr.. Hogg thereupon obtained an order
from the supreme court of New York per-
hitting him to recover possession of the
Office. The sheriff has not completed the
inventory of books and papers and other
contents of the office. and until he does
the opposition to Mr.. Hogg will control
the situation. Other legal moves are ex-
pecteu.

WILLHAVE BASEBALL
Incorporation of the Pacific
Athletic Association.
TO TAKE PLACE OF OLD LEAGUE.
Portland, Seattle and Tacoma Repre-
aries-Looking for Grounds.

Baseball will be played in Seattle during
the ensuing season under the auspices OF
THE Pacific Athletic Association" OF
which articles of incorporation were filed
yesterday by William Il. Rockwell, A. l..
Hall and Frank Wrestling.
The amount of the capital stock of the
new association is fixed at $4,000, two
fifths OF which is to be preferred and three
fifths common stock. The preferred
stockholders are to have no advantage
over the holders of common stock, other
than that they are to be granted certain
privileges and preferences in admission to
the grounds. The association is to be
managed by board of trustees, who are
to be chosen from among the stockholders
of the club. and who are to hold office for
six months.
The trustees for the term ending Sep
tember 10, 1898, are A. d. Charl-
ton, of Portland, assistant general
passenger agent of the Northern Pacific;
A. B. McAlpin. of Portland, president Of
the Multnomah Athletic Club; J. n. Teal,
of Portland, president of the Rowing
Club: w. B. Bushnell, of Tacoma; Sem
ator John S. Baker, Of Tacoma; G. 6.
Chandler, of Tacoma, general agent Of
the Northern Pacific. and William E.
Rockwell. w. A. Hardy and Frank B.
Wrestling. of this city. Mr.. Rockwell was
president of the old league and Mr.. Hardy
of the present Seattle club.
The object of the association is to offer
good baseball without trying to pay
National League rates, practice that has
resulted disastrously in so many instances
during the past few years. 1t is claimed
that this policy will be to the advantage
both of the spectators and of the players
themselves. The former will see good
baseball, with the certainty that the Or
ganization will not be obliged to disband
at the end of the season. and the latter
can be assured Of their salaries promptly
and without chance of having to bring
suit to enforce payment.
Grounds will be secured and players en-
gagged to begin the season about May l.,
but where the grounds will be located is
not at present known. The incorporators
say that they are negotiating with the va
rious street railway companies. and the
choice of grounds will depend in a great
measure upon the result of these negotia-
tons. 1t Is certain, however. that the
best arrangement practicable will be made
to consult the convenience of the spec
tatOrs

CHICAGO. March 10.-Rumors are circu-
lated today that A. b. Robinson, second
vice president Of the Santa Fe road, is
about to resign to accept a better place
with the Missouri Pacific. When ques-
toned as to the truth Of the report he
gave an evasive answer.
New YORK, March l0.-Speaking with
reference to the resignation Of President
Clark, Of the Union Pacific railroad.
Russell w. Sage said today:
think the election OF S. II. II. Clark to the
presidency Of the Missouri Pacific will be graft
tying to everybody concerned. His resignation
from the Union Pacific does not mean anything
because he will still remain . director OF that
company and the relation between the COM
panies will continue friendly.

Bunralo Want. tho Big Contest.

BUFFALO, N. Y, March 10.-The scheme
to secure the great Corbett- Mitchell con-
test for Buffalo has taken tangible form,
and a provisional lease of the exposition
building which will seat 10000 people, has
been secured. A meeting of those inter-
ested in the affair will be held tomorrow,
when it is likely that certain propositions
will be submitted to the Buffalo Athletic
Club to have the contest come off under
its auspices. If this club refuses to accept
the responsibility the Erie County Ath-
letic Club may be revived for the purpose.
The scheme to bring the contest here has
taken firm hold. and guarantees Of funds
sufficient to outbid other competitors are
already assured. Whether the authorities
would permit the contest is another ques-

THE PROPOSED NEW CUTOFF.
Judge Burke says It's for New Trans
continental Koad.


In reference to the proposed Great
Northern belt line through the eastern
part of the city Judge Burke said yester-
day: II regret very much the publica-
ton of the article at this time as the
announcement is premature. l will say,
however, that the Great Northern has
nothing to do with the scheme, but that
the line is intended to be reserved for
another transcontinental line which seeks
entrance to the city. Neither is it con-
nectcd with the Seattle & Northeastern
cutoff. as the road may be named the
Seattle Il Southwestern. The whole matter
is in an incomplete state, and can say
nothing further at present"
General Manager Shelby said: II don't
know anything about the matter. We
have a good line into the city already.
and in short time we will have more
facilities than traffic. The Great North
ern road is not trying to initiate the man
who started out to buy up all the land adj
