BIG FIRE NEAR PORTLAND D.
A Large Section of Country
Swept by a Torrent of
Flames.
Residents Compelled to Fight Des-
perately to Save Their Homes
and Livestock.

PORTLAND, Or, Sept. 30.-Several
hundred acres of country around Mount
Scott, Lents station, and the terminus OF
the Mount Scott motor road, southeast OF
the city, were burned over Saturday night
by fires, the like of which has not been
seen here for years. Hundreds of homes
were threatened with destruction, and it is
almost incompIehensibe how so much fire
could have ragged over the country without
a greater loss.
The fire started from piles of burning
slashlngs in the high wind which sprang
up Saturday morning. It has swept dis
trict extending in northeast erly direction
from Lents and northward from the
county road. A carpet of dry under
growth and old logs and stumps covered
the ground and made excellent food for
the flames, and a strong wind sent line
OF hire leaping over the country. catching
from tree to tree with electric-like quick
ness.
The fre-fghting began at about noon,
and it was past O'Clock Sunday morning
before the weary men and women could
think OF ceasing their vigilance. In twelve
hours the flames had raced over the entire
Lei-atory IRON Gaze SeGt.on Lac a1-s. Davr
ellis Valley roads, crossing the Foster road
short distance east from Lents to John
son Greek and along Johnson Creek west to
the place where the county road crosses
the creek. There were many narrow es-
capes and only by desperate efforts were
bands of cattle saved from destruction in
the fields. The greatest loss occurred in
the burning up of rails, fences, haystacks
and cordWood.

HEALDSBURG'S ONYX MINE

Taken Out.

HEALDSBURG, CAL. Sept. 30.-The
discovery of the onyx ledge eleven miles
west of this city has caused. considerable
excitement, and large number of men
have loaded up wagons and gone on pros
pecting tour.
Isaac Gray, who is largely interested in
lands in the vicinity of the newly discov-
cred ledge, says: az had passed the place
where Mr.. Madeira located his mine per-
haps thousand times, but paid little at
tention to the prettily colored stone. !
was constantly searching for gold, which
knew was hidden in those mountains, and
so had little thought for anything else. II
is as certain that gold lies hidden beneath
those rocks as that the mass of onyx lies
upon the surface.
"The gold mine we have been opening
up is now far enough developed and the
ore rich enough to warrant US putting in a
mill and improved machinery, and this we
will do at once"
The mines on Austin Creek have not
alone caused furry in this section. The
Mount Jackson has been running steadily
and at the Cinnabar King several men are
at work. The Boston mine is being deve-
Ioped and /. Burton is working his men in
ore rich enough to justify the putting il
of a mill on his mine in the Dry Greek
Valley.

NORTHERN P4CIPIC DILEMMA.

Judge Hanfor6 Nay Not accept the Old
Receivers designations.
SEATTLE, WASH, Sept. 30.-Through
Assistant General Counsel C. W. Bum,
who arrived in tb;s city to-day from the
East, Receivers Cakes, Payne and Rouse
of the Northern Pacific road this afternoon
filed their designations with Federal Judge
Hanford.
Mr.. Bum authorizes the statement that
the late receivers will not file an answer on
October 2 in the United States District
Court to the charges preferred by Brayton
Ives, president of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company. Neither will they per-
sonally answer in court, the assistant coun-
sci says, at the time they were directed to
do SO by Judge Hanford.
President Ives, accompanied by Colonel
Silas W. Petit, general counsel OF the COM
pany, and James Mcknight, ex-generaI
counsel for the old receivers, will arrive
in this city some time tomorrow. There
is much speculation here on the part OF
lawyers and railroad magnates and Off
Gals as to whether Judge Hanford will &C
cept the designations of Payne, Rouse and
Cakes, and if he will recognize the re-
ceivers appointed recently by Judge Jen-
kins of the Eastern District of Wisconsin.

FIGHTING FOR sPOILs.
The Alleged Action of Judge Magui
Against Daggett Not Credited by
the Politicians.

The story published by morning con
temporary to the effect that Congressmal
Mcguire had joined hands with Warren D
English to GUST John Daggett from his po
sltion in the Mint bears many earmark
of uncertainty. Daggett feels himself t
be secure from any attack that may sprinI
from the English faction of his party.
A prominent Democrat in speaking q
the matter yesterday expressed himself a
being entirely satisfied that no charge
whatever had been filed by Congressmal
Mcguire against Daggett.
1.-The truth of this matter" said hs
may be traced to the effort of Warren D
English and his brother, John, M. English
to have Frank J. Moffitt succeed John DAG

latter-named gentleman's removal.
This, every one who is at all posted OF
the relations existing between Dagget
and the present administration knows
not a proposition to be seriously though

English thinks, perhaps, that if Moffit
| could secure Daggett's place in the Min
it might effect some change in Moi
fits views on the financial policy c
before he would support the fnancia
policy of the Democratic party as it nov
stands he would vote the Republican
ticket. The proposition of any officia
change in the Superintendent Office of til
Mint is all moonshine.

FREED BY A DETECTIVE
Santa Barbara, Officials Conf
dent That He Was a
Murderer.
PASSED UNDER MANY ALIASES
discriminating Letters Found In a
Valise Owned by the
Prisoner.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Sept. 3d.
Sensational rumors have been going the
rounds among the local constabulary in
regard to the capture and extraordinary
release of a man named Morel, arrested
here by Detective Goodman of Los
Angeles couple of weeks ago. Goodman
arrested the msn on charge of burglary,
supposed to have been committed in Los
Angeles, but afterward boosted that the
prisoner was DO less criminal
than the assassin of Chief of Police
Hennessy of New Orleans, tragedy
which was the outcome of the Malta
disturbances in that city few years ago,
and which eliminated in the shooting of
six of the conspirators and became a
theme of international controversy. Good
man claimed to have been on the mans
track for some time, finally tracing him
from New Jerusalem here; yet, on his way
to Los Angeles, he discharged his pris-
oner, explaining that he found that he had
the wrong man after all, and that his cap
tive was an inoffensive farmer living in
the vicinity of New Jerusalem.
Officer Stornie, a constable attached to
Justice Gammill's court, who was with
Goodman at the time the arrest was made
and who assisted in the search for the
prisoners valise, declares that the valise
contained discriminating evidence of the
most positive order. Stornie is an Italian
and as the letters carried by Morel were all
written in Italian he is the only man who
saw them who is really competent to pro-
nounced upon their nature. He asserts
that they distinctly connected Morel with
the murder. These letters bore all sorts of
names and addresses, showing that the
prisoner travelled under many aliases.
In addition to these compromising facts,
Morel admitted to them that he had been
in New Orleans at the time of the murder,
and in conversation betrayed his famil-
iarity with other places to which the as
sassin had been traced.
Morel came to Santa Barbara to engage
in the fruit and cigar business. He Or
dered stock, which has arrived, but weeks
have passed and he has not appeared or
sent any one to claim il. The Southern
Pacific sold the perishable stuff, and has
other goods on its hands awaiting an
owner.
The Sheriff and his deputies are con-
ident that an important capture was
made in the person of this man, and are
asking why he was released from custody
without further examination.

Bruggy'S Tictins Cannot Recover From
His Hounds.


SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Sept. 3d.
The latest reports from the bedside of
Judge Hanley of Santa Maria indicate
that his condition is very nearly hopeless
and tidings of his death are expected at
any hour.
Bruggy, when interviewed to-day, in
sisted that the shooting was purely acct
dental and kept steadily in view the one
feature of his defense-that instead Of run
ming away he remained working on the
ranch for five hours after the shooting and
was there when the officers came to arrest
him. He is undoubtedly man of expe-
rience in the bywavs of criminal pro-
cedure, and although he has as yet re-
tanned no counsel he is as guarded in
utterance and as insistent in his reitera-
ton of the statement that he does not
desire to talk about his case just now as if
he were being coached by the foremost
criminal lawyers.
