A Horrible Accident.

Last Wednesday, early in the after
noon, came word of the sad and terrible
death of Mrs. Luther Harshbsrger, of
New Market, which had occurred just
about noon.
Mrs. Rebecca Harshbarger was a
daughter of Rev. S. Burba, who lived
near Emerald, in Adams county. Less
than year ago she and Luther Harsh.
barger we're marie |. They lived with
Rev. Burba until about three weeks ago,
when they moved upon Mayor H. D.
Davis farm, adjacent to New Market.
For some days they had been missing
eggs, and Mr.. Harshbarger laid the
blame upon strange cat. On Wednes.
day, just after dinner, while working
about the barn, he noticed the strange
cat prowling around, and rushed into
the house for his gun. With the weapon
in hand he started out on a run, but
caught his toe under loose door strip
as he passed from the sitting room into
the kitchen. He fell headlong, and as
he went down tried to hold the gun up.
The hammer, however, struck the wall
or door in some way, and the load was
discharged into the back of his wife's
head, as she stood washing the dishes,
with her back toward him. The entire
charge went into her head, scattering
her brains over table, ceiling and stove.
As she fell she grasped the dishpan con.
vulsively, and brought it down with its
contents upon her. Mr.. Harshbarger
called frantically to know if she was
hurt, and getting no reply, rushed for a
horse and hurried for doctor. He got
back before the doctor, and the latter
found him raving with the widest
lamentations, and soon after his terrible
grief overcame him and he fell, remain
ing unconscious for hours.
Mrs. Harshbarger's mother, who was
subject to heart trouble, was prostrated
by the news and came very near dying.
The deceased was very devout mem
Der of the Methodist Church. She had
taken great interest in the protraoted
meeting now in progress, and many had
noted with especial comment the beauty
and spiritual earnestness OF prayer
she offered the evening before her
DEATH.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. Jas. M. Roberts, at Wesley
Chapel, the following day. There was
an immense concourse present, and Lot
fearless eye in all the assembly as
they listened to the story of her womanly
worth and fate of sadness.

Chicago, March 2S.-The California

there is no telling when 1t will improve.
The Western Passenger Association
convened again today, but no report of
the Atchlson was made. and when the
chairman, Mr.. Caldwell, went to the
office of that road he was informed that
the Atchison did not propose to attend
any meeting. This decision was brought
about by a telegram from the Union
Pacific, which informed the latter that
as the Atchison had been the first to
reduce rates, 1t must be the first to re-
store them.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
The Condition of Business As Seen BY
Dun & Co.


New York, March 23.-R G. Dun G.
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade will say:
1t is perplexing to be obliged to report
that business grows larger in volume,
and at the same time not more profit
able. The uncertainty does not dimin-
ish, but has rather increased, in the
judgment Of many commercial bodies,
which have urged the president to veto
the selgniorage bill Prices OF CONNER
cial securities do not rise, but are on
the whole about Is per cent lower than
last week, though then the lowest ever
known in this country, and 1873 per cent
lower than year ago. More mills are
at work, though the proportion of pro-
ductive force employed is still from
fifth to a third in different branches Of
industry, and many mills are stopping
because their orders have run out, while
a larger number are starting with or
ders enough for a time. Failures for the
week ending March Is involved liabili-
ties of only $2,55S.S1S, and for the two
weeks of March only $4,SS5,l19 The fail
ures of this week number 244 in the

CHINESE REGISTERING.

Washington, March 23.-About March
| the commissioner Of internal revenue
sent a circular letter to each of the 6S
internal revenue collectors in the United
States directing them to report at once
the number of Cinnamon in their dis
tricts who had applied to register, and
whether there would be general conn
pliance with the law. About so Of the
collectors have already replied, and with
the exception of one collector who does
not answer the last question, all reports
state that the Chinese are disposed to
register, as the laws direct. The report
shows that about two-fifths of all the
Chinese have already registered.
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1894-03-24

Representative Wilson. Of Washlng
ton, said: After battling for years fof
an adequate restriction law, the present
pro-Chinese and pro British adminlFtra-
tion has overridden the law, and has
not only gone into the business Of alo-
ing Chinese to invade my state, but
have also made a contract with the
British coal firms across the border
from my state, and in competition with
our people,"
Representative Ellis, republican, OF
Oregon said. THE reported abandon
ment of the Photographic Identification
will take away one of the vital means
of the restriction. Until a full treaty is
at hand it will be difficult to form an
opinion Of It, but If it in any way limits
the present restrictions, or makes Chi
nese immigration easier, it will be a
serious blow to the people of the Pacific
Coast -

ApMINIsrRArIoN DISAPPOINTED
Various Views of the New Chinese
Treaty.

Washington, March 2S.-Some surprise
is manifested in administration circles
at the opposition that has already de-
veloped to the new Chinese treaty. The
new treaty, said one of those who spoke
for the state department, is the outcome
Of months of patient work and skillful
negotiation. and 1t was hoped the state
department had succeeded at last In
settling in manner entirely satisfac-
tory the question Of regulating Chinese
immigration. For nearly ten years this
subject has been a source OF trouble
and the public has surely appreciated
the danger to which the country ha.
been exposed OF total severance of the
friendly relations with China, with the
probable loss Of our valuable CONNER
cial relations with that country.

Mr. Darrow, who is remarkably in ear

the assassination l became impressed

receive just treatment in the criminal

been in the interest of justice We have
