LATE ELECTION NEWS.
Causes Of the Democratic Defeat in
Oregon.

Portland, Ore, June 1O.-The latest
election returns show the election OF
the entire republican state ticket.
Based upon reports received, Chief
Justice W. P. Lord, republican candi-
date for governor, will have plurality
of more than fifteen thousand, which
means a majority of three thousand
over Galloway, democrat; Pierce, pop
ulist, and Kennedy, prohibitionist.
Lord will be the first republican gov
ernor Oregon has had for eight years
and fourth in thirty-six years. The re
mainder Of the state ticket is elected
by similar pluralites.
The successful candidates are:-Gov-
ernor, W. P. Lord; supreme court
Judge, Charles E. Wolverton; secretary
of state, Harrison r. Kincaid; state
treasurer, Phil Metschan; attorney
general, Cicero NJ. IdIeman; superin-
tendent of public instruction, D. Y. S.
Reid. Representative Hermann is re-
elected in the first district by a large
majority. and Representative Ellis has
plurality III Uue SeCOlu uIStI1Ct.
The cause of the unprecedented re-
publican sweep is laid at the door Of
Governor Pennoyer and to the effect
of the populist government in Kansas
and Colorado.
Pennoyer in his tour of the state, in
urging his candidacy for United States
senator, injured the democratic and
peoples party more by his wild state
ments than did the active and well
conducted republican campaign in
Lynn and Washington counties, the
hotbeds of populism. Republicans have
gained sweeping victories on all tickets.
In this county the same considerations
| induced many to vote for Joe Simon
| republican, for state senator and his
election is not disputed by the most
sangufne democrats.
Most of the republican candidates on
the county and city tickets are elected,
| probably owing to the same causes
people deeming that vote for democ.
| racy when it is allied to populism is a
vote for populism.

SALVADOR QUESTION VEXES
THE L. $. AUTHORITIES.

Washington, June 12.-Captain
Thomas action in affOrding an asy-
lum for fugitives of the defunct Ezeta
government on board the Bennington
at La Libertad, Salvador, has very
much embarrassed our government.
For the third time since the news of
the action, an earnest consultation De
tween the president and Secretaries
Gresham and Herbert took place to-
day. The conference lasted nearly an
hour. The officials refuse to talk
about the matter for publication. but
1t is understood that no positive line of
action has been agreed upon.
The difficulty lies in the fact that
While the government would like to re-
pudiate Thon as action as confirming
a dangerous doctrine, it does not care
to face the charge of inhumanity in
turning over the refugees to almost
certain death and the effort now is to
find middle course that will avoid If
once establishing precedent and loss
of lives.
NEW GOVERNMENT WRATIIY.
La Llbertad Salvador, June 12.-The
newly organized government is max
ing desperate efforts to secure the sur
render of the refugees aboard the Uni
ted States steamship, Bennington.
After making formal remonstrance
against the extension Of an asylum TO
the late vice-president and his staff,
President Guttierraz has made a de-
mand upon Pollock, the American con-
sui here. for the surrender Of the men.
For the time being he valves entirely
the question of the right CT an asylum
and, charging that these officials of the
late government are guilty of robbery
and embezzlement, demands their sur
render under article 2 Of the extradi-
ton treaty negotiated with the Uni
ted States in 1870.
Consul Pollock after conSulta ton
with Commander Thomas, of the Ben
nlngtOn. Informed the government
that he could not meet its demand I'M
til instructed to do so by the Wash
ington officials. He cabled an account
Of the affair to Washington. SO far he
has not had response, the refugees
being meanwhile detained on the Ben
ningtOn.
The impression is general, however,
that they must be surrendered, as all
due legal forms have been observed in
making the demand, but the United
States consul will probably require a
guarantee that the refugees be tried
only on the criminal charges specified.

THE POLICE BLACKMAIL.
More Testimony Before the New York
Senate Committee.

New York, June 12.-The New York
New York city police department re-
sumed its SittingS a few days ago in
part l, superior court. The subscrip-
ton list opened by the chamber Of
commerce has swelled beyond the $50
900 which was thought necessary for
the expenses of Mr.. Golf and his col
leagues, and money enough has been
raised to carry on the investigation
as long as the committee desires to
sit.
Eeapio Arteago, a saloon keeper, who
has lived in New York city since 1851,
testified that he opened a saloon on
Eight avenue, between Twenty-sev-
enth and Twenty-eight streets, in 1891,
and tried to get a concert license.
After an interview with the captain he
opened a concert saloon without a IL
cense. On the advice Of the captain
he saw Wardman Wagner and made
an arrangement by which he was TO
pay $50 month for the privilege of
running a concert saloon without a
license. He paid the $50 for the first
month, but was unable to pay the sec
ond month. Wagner then advised him
to sell out. This he did to Warren
Lewis. Lewis ran the saloon without
| a license. He was arrested a short
time afterward, and told that if he
paid s. to the sergeant at the desk he
could get off, but he did not pay the
money. Witness said he could identify
the police captain and wardman with
whom he had dealings.

THE STANFORD CLAIM.
Judgment for the Government Would
Leave Mrs. Stanford Penniless.

San Francisco, June 1O.-The claim
for $15,000,00O filed against the Stan
ford estate by Attorney General Olney
as a preliminary step to enforce the
governments claim against the Origi-
nal holders of the Central Pacific
grant, has awakened much interest
here. 1t is now learned that the gov
ernments claim was presented Oh
May 26, but that an attempt was
made to keep the proceeding secret,
in order that the financial operations
Of the state need not be embarra ssed.
The late Senator Stanford's estate
was recently appraised at 100000
Since the appraisement heavy Obliga-
tons have been met, and it is stated
now that the enforcement of the gov
eminent claim would practically wipe
out the estate, not only leaving the
widow penniless, but cutting off all
the benefciaries under the late sena-
tors will, including the endowment
Of S2,5OO,0O0 to the Stanford univer-
sity. It is even said that the estate,
after the liquida ton of its accumulated
debts, may not equal the amount of
the claim Of the government. In this
event Senator Stanford's deed Of trust
under which Stanford university was
founded would not stand in case the
decision Of the courts should be in
favor of the government, and the uni
versity would necessarily be sacrificed
to satisfy the Judgment.
Mrs. Stanford, in an interview, has
stated that the governments claim will
be resisted to the fullest extent of
her ability.
