The trial of John Hansen before
Judge Mcbride for The murder of his
wife began yesterday morning in Lib
erty Hail. Several hours in the early
part of the day were spent in attempt
ing to impanel jury, and it was not
until after a great deal of argument,
and the dismissal Of nine jurors for
cause, that the box was filled. The
jury as finally 'irlwn consisted of p.

Attorney Barrett, assisted by Attor-
neys F. D. .Winron and c. ]. Curtis ap-
peared for the ss':ution, and Fulton
Bros. announced themselves ready to
defend the prisoner. The district at
torney,. in his opening remarks dweit
at some length on the details of tie
crime and impressed the whole occur
renee vividly on the minds of the jury.
He was followed by Hon. C. w. Fulton,
who outlined his defence and who stat
ed that he would prove how his Client
was a victim of what was known In
medical science as chronic alcohol
ism" A long legal fight then ensued
as to the right of admitting the con-
fession made to Sheriff Smith by Han
sen after mis- capture, and Judge Nc
Bride finally allowe,l it to go in, scor-
ing the first important point for the
prosecution. After the examination OF
Sheriff Smith AMI two other witnesses

The Nehalem Journal says: THE
new bridge over the Nehalem one mile
below Vernonia, has been finished, and
now the floods may flow and the river
roar, but the neighbors on the east
side of the river will be able to come
to town whenever they wish. The
bridge is quite conveniently placed and
will have considerable travel over it,
as the Pebble Creek settlement, the
East Fork people and the farmers along
the east bank of the river will all find
it necessary to cross there going to
and from Vernonia.
The length of the bridge, including
the two approaches of 80 feet each, is
200 feet; the span is 14O feet, at height
of 21 feet above the bed of tn eNeha-
lem. The road district will add some
As feet of approaches which will vir-
tually increase it's length to 24S feet.
The bridge is what is termed a com
bination," having ten tons of iron and
steel in its formation with some 10000
feet of lumber. which was furnished
by the Vernonia Mill Co. The iron
work was done by the builders, assist
ed by Thomas Lavender. Vernonia's
pioneer blacksmith.
Such a bridge has long been needed
here and will open up one of the best
and shortest routes out of the Nehalem
valley to Hillsboro and other county
towns and to Portland. The people OF
this portion of the valley should be-
and undoubtedly are, duly grateful to
the members of the county court and
others who were instrumental in Sc
surfing this great benefit to them, ever
though such attention was fully de.
served"

The following communication sent tc
The Astorian yesterday speaks for it.
self. The writer's are both so well
known in this city that it is unneces-
sary to state anything about their con-
nection with Astoria merchants:
To the Editor;
see by an evening paper that the
people who run 1t are trying to incite
white men against the Cinnamon liv-
ing In Astoria, and to cause bad blood
to come between us and our white
friends. Now, everybody in Astoria has
known me and many of my countrymen
for many years We have lived here
with our wives and little children at
peace with everybody. We. do not quar-
rel We do not steal. We do not of.
fend the law. We buy and sell. We
earn money here and spend it here. We
open up commerce. myself, weel;
ago, shipped half a million feet of Or
egon lumber to China l have for fif-
teen years employed more white men
and paid them better wages every year
than anybody connected with that
evening paper has done in his whole
life. He says we are sharpening knives
and getting guns He is liar. We
make no answer to that statement be-
cause we know that no white man in
Astoria is foolish enough to believe it.
That evening paper lives on this kind
of thing. The blacklist and the dirtiest
business is all it seeks for.
Mr.. Cleveland told us to register.
Then he told us to wait till his govern
ment gave other orders. We abide by
the government and we wait to see
what they tell us to do. In the mean
time no drunkard shall harm me or my
family. 1 have not a sharpened knife
or gun either to help me, but haze
every good white man here to say this
man shall not be allowed to go on
with his crimes. Yours, etc,

At about 1870 yesterday morning Will
liam Couchman, an apprentice on the
ship Portpatrick, either committed sui
eide or was accidentally drowned, i is
not yet known which. Circumstances,
however, point to the conclusion that
the unfortunate lad deliberately took
his own life. He has been on the ship
for four years and his apprenti 'esbip
in Portland he met young w,rnan
whose parents reside on the east side,
and fell in love with her. She repelled
his advances, and one afternoon on
board the vessel he attempted to shoot
himself through the head with a re-
volver. A fellow apprentice discov-.
cred him in the act and prevented him
accomplishing his purpose. When in
Portland again last week he accident
ally met the girl, who told him that
she had been married for several
months. Since then Couchman has act
ed in a very peculiar manner, and has
given a good many signs of being
little wrong in the head. At 1870 yes
terday morning he dressed himself, put
on his heavy sea boots and letting
himself over the side of the ship with
rope, sank under the water. The
body has not been recovered, and the
Portpatrick left out at 2 p. m. 1t is
next to impossible that he meant to
try to swim ashore, for the vessel was
a long way out, and he was heavily
numbered with his clothes.
