Harvey County People Watching
the indians Closely.
THE SLAUGHTER OF BIG GAME
Visiting Reds Leave Hundreds of Car
casScs, Taking Only the
Hams and Hides.

Pendleton, Or, Sept. PA we'll known
citizen of Burns, Harvey county, G. f.
Mckinney, was interviewed here to-
day regarding the reported trouble
with Indians near STEMS mountain
Mckinney is engaged in the lumber
business in that region and is consid-
cred responsible. He said:
The dispatch recently sent from
Burns was based on facts. Trouble is
brewing in STEMS mountain country
between settlers and Indians. rms
season of the year several hundred
from Umatilla and other reservations
go to the mountains for their annual
hunt, killing an immense quantity OF
big game leaving the carcasses to rot,
taking only the hams. Indignant pro-
tests have been made by the whites.
The temper of many settlers all
through that region is ugly. Collisions
may come, and serious trouble Will en-
sue unless the Indians are kept away
or compelled to desiSt in the nefarious
practice of Strengthening and not using
all the meat. Large numbers or resi-
dents in that region are accustomed 10
keep arms and ammunition on hand.
In case of a rupture the whites could
quickly raise an efficient body OF men
ready to go into the mountains ana use
force to drive out the redskins. trouble
may be averted, but you need not be
surprised If it occurs any time

PLACER DISCOVERIES QUITE RICI
The American Falls Diggings Turn Out
Beyond ExDectatiOns.

Boise, Idaho, Sept. 1.-Great interest
is being aroused in placer discoveries
on the Snake river, three miles below
American falls. Though there is rich
ground along that stream entirely
across the state, the gold is so fine
that only in few places has any profit
attended mining operations. Therefore
when the American falls discoveries
were announced but little attention was
paid to them, as it was supposed it was
another case in which the enthusiasm
was caused by the richness Of the
ground from which it would prove
impracticable to save the gold. Re-
suits, however, show that gold there
can be saved and the returns are very
large. The rich ground is found on
both sides Of the river, and 1t reaches
back as far as it has been prospected,
though there is at present very little
encouragement to go far back from
the stream owing to the difficulty of
getting water.
A singular feature Of the ground
is that gold is distributed through it
all, even the top soil being pay. The
rich streak is some four to five feet
thick, but all is pay. The ground is
ploughed and dumped into the sluices
with scrapers. Returns vary from $50
to $40 per shift, with four men. Where
boulders are met with, rich pockets are
found under them, and where lava bed
rock Is exposed the seams are found to
be very rich.

Three Distinct Earthquakes in
Brooklyn and New York.
LITTLE DAMAGE WAS CAUSED
Houses TrcmhIed and Insecure Articles
Were in Some Instances Thrown
10 the Floor

Brooklyn N. Y, Sept. 1.-Three dis
tinct earthquake shocks were felt by
the residents of Brooklyn about
o'clock this morning. No damage to
life or property is reported from any
section Of the city. The districts of
East New York and South Brooklyn
felt the greatest shock. but the rum
blings were distinctly felt in other Sec
tons of the city. Contradictory reports
are given as to the severity OF the
shocks The first shock. which was felt
at O'CLOCK, was followed by rum
bling noise, like distant thunder. This
was followed by two other slighter
Shocks which, according to most re-
ports, died away in low, grating tones.
Superintendent of Police William ].
McKelvey telephoned to the police
headquarters from his Green avenue
residence to the effect that he had been
awakened from a sound sleep by the
earthquake. He said that the house
oscillated and that the bed on which he
was sleeping moved perceptibly. Dep
uty Commissioner Of Police Crosby,
who was stopping at Coney island, tele-
phoned to headquarters that the shock
had been very severe in that section OIL
Brooklyn. He described 1t as dow
rumbling noise, and added that many
houses had been shaken, all Of the in
habitants being aroused from their
sleep.
James Jackson, a colored Waterman
at the municipal building, said that the
residents of the Twenty-fifth ward
were startled by three shocks in rapid
succession, followed by a rumbling
noise. The houses trembled and many
pictures and other ornaments hanging
on the walls were thrown to the floor
Two conductors Of the Atlantic avenue
railroad, who were dining in a restau-
rant on Washington street, reported
that they felt the earthquake shock.
The building trembled percept1bly,
while the plates and other dishes on
the table were moved AT many hotels
the guests were so frightened by the
vibrations that they hurried into the
Railways to find out the cause OF the
trouble. The guests at the P1erpOnt
house were very much alarmed and
many of them went downstairs and
asked the night clerk what had hap
pened They thought an explosion must
have occurred.
According to the weather forecast,
the earthquake reached this city at Gil
o'clock this morning. The shock was
slight and lasted for 10 seconds. 1t
travelled from south to north. But COM
paratively few persons in the city no
ticed the disturbance.
Sandy Hook, Sept. IA shock, ap-
parently that of an earthquake, last
ing about three seconds, was felt about
o'clock this morning.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1895-09-07

and villages in the northern section the
story received is the same. This shock
was accompanied by the low rumbling
sound that marks the true earthquake
This trembling motion lasted for sew
eral seconds. The shock does not ap-
pear to have been sufficient to cause
much damage.
AT WILMINGTON.
Wilmington, Del, Sept. 1.-Quite a
perceptible shock of earthquake was
felt in this city at $50 o'clock this
morning.
