The Durkee Wreck.

Fred Lusso, the fireman killed in the
wreck two and a half miles west of Dur
kee Tuesday evening, was found by
Engineer Jacobsen under the cab. He
was fast and unable to get out without
assistance. He was taken to La Grande
as soon as possible and taken to the
hotel. He was perfectly conscious and
suffering no pain. His wife arrived
shortly after IL o'clock, to whom he
said he was feeling first rate and would
be around again in a few days. The
doctors who had examined him, however,
knew that he was fatally injured and
that his death was only question
of short time. On some pretext his
wife was taken from the room, but at
1 :15 O'Clock her agonized shrek an
nounced to all that he had passed away.
1t was designed to bring his body east,
but learning that the Northern Pacific
was having as much trouble and delay
from washouts as the Union Pacific, it
was concluded to bury him at La Grande.
Brakeman Phillips was found under
the water tank, his head cleft in twain,
the upper half lying few feet away.
The engineer escaped with sprained
ankle.
The coroner of Union county, who is
also the company's physician, exoner-
ated the company from all blame.

This section has just experienced one
of the most continuous rain storms
known since 1881. The earth, SO thor

melt on the high hills. In addition to
the precipitation, the streams are out of

jury room is located there were several
private detectives on patrol duty, and on
the court room floor corridor there were
more detectives. Every man who passed
in or out Of the court room was closely
scanned, as a rumor had been extensively
circulated that an attempt would be
msde to bribe the jury in some unfore.
seen way.
When McKane was placed in the
custody Of Sheriff Buttling he remained
in the sherifis private Office until about
6 o'clock, when he went to the Clarendon
Hotel TO dine with the sheriff After that
be was taken to the room he has been
occupying in the hotel during the trisl.
There he was to spend 1.-The night nnder
the sherili's eve.
None OF the counsel in the case. save
Lawyer Roderick. remained in court any
length Of time. He said:
Il confidently expect a verdict of &C
quittal, and If l DO not get it / will be
disappointed. The delay in reach.
ing verdict shows that the
jnrors are discussing the situation.

SNOW, RAIN And SLEET.
WILMINGTON VISITED BY STORM OF
THE DRIVING ELEMENTS.

The Telephone Service Gets Serious
Blow-Many Wires Not working Street
Cars Running as Usual slippery Side
walks Cause Many Falls.
Wilmington was again visited by
another heavy snow storm last night
Snow began falling lightly about s o'clock,
by o'clock a fierce snow storm was
raging. By midnight the streets and
house tops were covered to a depth Of
four inches There was little wind and
the snow drifted very little.
Early this morning the snow changed
to sleet, and everything was covered with
glass like carpet.
Electric, telephone and telegraph wires
we're weighed down with their load Of
ice Many of these could not Withstand
the immense load aud broke. The tele-
phone system was badly damaged, many
wires being down or thrown out OF order.
The telegraph system was also thrown out
Of working order for a short time. Line
men of both companies were sent out early
to repair the breaks. Street car traffic
was also interfered with and cars we're
run with difficulty last night, but this
morning they we're all running on time.
The cars on the main lines ran until 2
o'clock this morning, and these kept the
trolley comparatively clear of sleet, and
the first cars put on this morning soon
cleared o5 what little had gathered on
the wires
As the trolley wheel ran over the
sleet-covered trolley, the people on the
streets we're treated to tne electrical
display. Vivid fishes of light, sharper
than lightning, we're sent forth from the
wires and large balls Of fire were sent
flying in every direction.
The pavements were covered
with ice and snow frozen
with the slippery side up.
and many we're those who sat down very
unexpectedly. A general thaw set in
shortly after daylight and the streets
and sidewalks were soon covered with a
mass of slush People were soon out
with shovels and brooms and helped
make walking possible.
About 10 30 o'clock the sun managed
to steal through the clouds and helped
ia the general thaw, and for a couple Of
hours icicles fell from the wires and
buildings into the streets. Many OF
them we're several feet long. About the
time the sun appeared it lagain began q
snow in fine and small fakes and con
tinued all the morning The snow did
not remain, however, but melted as soor
as it touched the pavements A few
sleighs were seen on the streets, but the
sleighers soon became tired Of riding
through mud.
Last night most Of the hills weri
crowded with merry coasters, and theii
hearty laughter could be heard unit
nearly midnight. The small boys ar
