WOOL DECLINES.

Since Saturday another drop in wool
took place. Stocks are accommodating
and buyers diminishing. The London
market is dead, awaiting American
tariff legislation. Prices are half-cent
off and 8 to 81 is the Salem market to-
day. Holders will do well not to sell
until after the final vote on the tariff
bill which must soon be taken.

Redeeming County Vdrrants.

The call for redemption of out
standing warrants, published to-
day, aggregates about $4,000. The
last of the old general fund war
rants are now redeemed. These
bore ten per cent. interest. All
others outstanding now bear seven
per cent. interest. The Current
expense warrants are redeemed
down to part of October, 1890,
issue, so that this fund is now
about three years in arrears.
Money which has hitherto gone to
redeem the old funded debt war
rants will hereafter be applied on
current expenses and other county
funds which have no great accrued
interest tackled on to them, like
the old general fund, the greater
part of which have been redeemed
at twice their face value. The
county poor farm is also paid for
out of last years revenues, so that
in spite of the showing on it's face,
the financial condition of the coun-
ty is improving. The attempt to
fund the debt in 1882 was a costly
failure.

and our old friend, j. S. Kelly, is
working the Crevice Bar, below
the ferry; but we have no particu-

next morning, after night of re-
freshing sleep. we bid adieu to our
good host and hostess. and take
the back track down the river and
homeward bound, with fair wind
blowing behind us. Assisted by
the wind we make uncommonly
good time over the slippery trail.
Shorts, Little Salmon, Race creek,
and Fiddle creek are speedily left
behind. At Amos Carver's we
hitch for moment to raid his
cellar and pilfer our pockets full of
his famous little yellow winter
apples. At high noon we reach
John Day, eat a hasty and hearty
lunch, resist all invitations to stay
all night, and aye again on the
wing speeding over the trail, with
only a short stop at Freedom to
take horn with Josh, until we
reach Bailey Chamberlain's again,
where our trip for the day is ended.
Continued next week.

The AIieOed Cutie Kiliing Case.

After eight days consumed in
taking testimony in the case of the
State VS.. Richard Stevenson and
James Stevenson, Justice Wood
ward ON last Saturday discharged
the defendants. The case for the
State rested principally on the
testimony of Sam Watson, who
was acting as a detective; corrobor
ating testimony was also given by
j. M. Moore and A. Scott, who
saw the killing, but their testi-
mony was also consistent with the
innocence of the accused, taking
their story as true. Watson's
story was that Stevenson made the
proposition to kill the beef, and
sell it to the Chinaman. That he
entered into the scheme for the
purpose of apprehending the guilty
parties, and made several of the
stock men of the neighborhood
acquainted with the plan. The
story of the two defendants, cor
roborated by Mrs. Stevanson and
Sam Stevenson, was that Watson
came to the house the evening be-
fore and asked them to help him
kill in the morning; he had
bought a steer of Jim Moore and
would give them a quarter for
helping butcher, he having sold
half to the ChiDaman. On the
morning of the killing Watson
went to Stevcnson's house, and to-
gether they went, Watson having
passed the cattlecoming and told
where they were. Jim Stevenson
shot the steer and almost immedi-
ately was arrested by Moore,
Watson and Scott. The steer kill
ed was one of the M--cross brand
belonging to Whitman & Rouch.
The case was stubbornly contested
by the counsel for the State, w. n
Scales, and McDevitt & Musgrove
for the defense. Justice Wood
ward held the evidence was not
sufficient to Justify him III holding
the defendants. Much feeling was
manifested by the public in the
case, and sentiment was much di-
vided as to the guilt and innocence
of the parties.
We learn that the Stevensons
have since been arrested on infor.
nation filed by Frank Wyatt on 8
similar charge, which is now being
tried at Cottonwood before Justice
| Robbins as we 90 to press.
