some ESTIMATES oF LOSSES

Special Correspondence Of Astorian.
Portland, Or, 10Th June, 1S94.-The
willamette river continues to fall fast,
and the water is receding from the
streets Of the city in very marked
manner All the cellars in the lower
part of Portland are still brimfull and
some of them will remain in that condi-
ton for months. Fully dozen pump
ing engines were at work today on the
easements Of large buildings, and each
was surrounded continuously by large
crowd of people, who watched the opera
ton with interest. This work fills the
streets with smoke and clatter, and
sends big volumes of water down the
levels all over the roads.
1t is curious to note that not one In
so Of the residents of Portland really
knows how the flood was brought about
or in what manner the water was
drawn into the thoroughfares. THE
backwater from the Columbia was the
cause of it all, they say, the favorite i'm
preston being that the added height
and current Of the Columbia river acted
as a sort Of pump that forced the water
up over Portland's business centre. The
truth is that there has been no back
water" in any sense Of the word. The
Willamette river, by the melting of the
snow accumulations of season and a
half in the valley. was much higher
than usual, and running down in its bed
1t struck the Columbia water-course,
swollen and swift. The latter acted ex-
actly like dam, and prevented the re-
lease of the water in the overcharged
Willamette by holdin 1t in check at the
junction until few days ago. Then,
when the Columbia fell the captive
waters Of the willamette began slowly
to mingle with those Of the parent
stream, and, being gradually released,
started at once to fall percepibly. There
was no backwater; only a stoppage of
the natural flow by its being confronted
with stronger body Of water that
claimed first right-of-way down to the
sea. fh avs

Associated Press.

Washington, June 20.-The gold re-
serve today, deducing the $2,255,OOO en-
gagged for shipment tomorrow, is S64,-
7O3, 4O7, or $735, $3.50 lower than ever before
in its history. On February 2, 1894, just
previous to the bond issue, the reserve
reached $685. 4S5, 377, the lowest point to
that time, and the cash balance was
$SS, 545, 1O2 The cash balance today was
$115, 5,7G3, 7O5, or $Sl, ,51S,G13 greater than on
February 2. Treasury officials are ap-
parently not alarmed at the continued
outflow of gold. That there is no lack
of gold in the country is shown by the
last national bank statement, which
shows that on May IA, 1894, the national
banks Of the United States held gold to
the amount of 1858, 9,941, ,92S of which over
$2OS, 100000 was in gold coin and gold
certificates. The treasury receipts so far
this year aggregate $2S6, 81, ,6S2, and ex-
$751; 151, 1897, leaving a deficit
for the year up to this time Of $74,273,-
7O5.

Estimated loss. S......,......... $l27,VOO
In placing the estimated loss on Sec
ond street at the above figure, have
allowed carefully for the losses in bust
Hnesses, the owners Of which absolutely
refused to name figure, claiming, with
truth, that they cannot give an amount
till all their damaged goods are opened
up, which operation will take from ten
days to two weeks. In these instances I
have allowed nothing whatever for
losses on goods, only taking destruction
of store fixtures and cost Of moving.
Therefore, It can be justly claimed that
$127 900 is a low figure.

Defeated.


Defeated.
Washington, June 2O-Peffer address,
ed the senate today on a resolution in
strhcting the committee on postofices
and postroads to report back the postal
savings bill. No action was taken, and
the consideration Of the free list of the

question being Peffers amendment to
put salt on the dutiable list at five cents
per hundred pounds. The present duty
is eight cents. 1t was lost by vote of

any way was agreed TO, when sugars
was reached, Aldrich merely demanded
a yea and nay vote on the finance COM
mittee's amendment to strike it from
the free list, where 1t was placed by the
house. The committee amendment car
ried by a vote of 33 to 22, the Repub-

CALIFORNIA REPUBLICANS.
Estes Nominated for Governor On a
Good Platform.

Good Platform.
Sacramento, Cal, June 20.-Morris M.
Estee, of Napa, is the Republican nom-
inee for governor of California, having
been nominated on the first ballot by
the Republican state convention this
afternoon. He had three-fourths of all
the delegates and 1t was walkover. No
other candidate, at any time since the
first delegations assembled in Sacra-
mento, had more than fighting chance.
When the nomination of governor was
reached, Chairman George A. Knight
left the chair and placed Estee in nom
ination. Then Gen. Hart, Of Sacrament
10, came forward in behalf of Gen.
Chapman. Hart's speech was a bitter
TRADE against bossism He did not re-
fer in name to any poersn as boss, but
his references were well understood. He
was finally interrupted by George A.
Knight, who raised a point Of order
Then pandemonium broke loose The
crowd resented his action in stopping
Hart's arraignment The chair raped
loudly for order. The uproar increased.
Knight raised his fist threatenlngly and
roared out a question IL he had the
floor. The chair nodded, and Knight
started to drown out the confusion by
his trumpet voice, but he failed. Then
he got mad. He jumped up on chair
and demanded the floor. The crowd
roared again and wanted Hart to pro-
coed. The chairman was powerless to
quell the tumult. Knight could stand It
no longer. He rushed forward, jumped
to the platform, struck the gaveI and
finally restored order. Then he told
Hart to proceed and speak to the ques-
tion. Hart went ON in the same vein
for few minutes. and then introduced

also placed I'm nomination. The vote
stood: Estee, 661; chipman. 7G; McDon-

THE GOLD SHORTAGE.
Cincinnati Bankers Asked to Help the

Cincinnati, O., June 2O.-Banks and
capitalists on the board of trade are ex-

Morgan, United States treasurer, in
structing the sub-treasury to secure all
the gold possible here, and asking the
banks and others to exchange gold in
sums of $10O and multiples for new pa
per currency. The Ohio Valley bank had
promised the sub-treasury $50, 900 of gold
today but the prospect of premium
on gold renders it doubtful whether any
of the coin will be released here Thos.
