alleged sport at this place to-day. 1t rained
all the morning and the track was in bad
shape. The original programme was far

FIGHT WITH DYNAMITE.
The Warehouse Of One Firm
Of Creditors Is Twice
Destroyed.
TRY TO KILL A DETECTIVE
Rapacious Lawyers Said to Have
Advised the Settlers to Resort
to Violence.

PORTLAND, Or, July 16.-Detective
WeIch of this city, who has just returned
from Moscow, Idaho, where he was sent in
connection with the troubles of Judge
Piper and the farmers, says there may be
bloodshed at any hour. The farmers of
Latah and adjoining counties whose farms
are in the hands of receivers. and those
who expect receivers, have not cooled
down. The feeling is running high, and
as there is nothing left for the mortgage
companies to do but foreclose there will
be trouble when they try to gain possession
of the farms.
Welch went there to find the men who
twice blew up the warehouse of Dernham
& Kaufman. These men held mortgages,
and it was the intention of the farmers to
intimidate them and others. He learned
that two men-James Jolly and George
Good, the former the brother of an editor
of newspaper-had bought dynamite
from merchant named Clark, and he be-
lieves that they did the work. When it
was learned that he was working on the
case several attempts to do away with him
were made.
Jolly's brother told Welch that the dyna-
mite was bought to kill fish in river some
twenty-five miles from Moscow. Welch
was told he might go and see where the
dynamite had been used. He started out
with a couple of men. On the way
rough-looking fellow rode up behind them
and went along. He and Welch became
separated from the rest of the party, and
Welch, suspecting the man, covered him
with his gun. The stranger, he afterward
learned. had been hired to meet the party
as he did and "do him up" at the first op-
portunity.
Judge Piper has reversed his order ap-
pointing receivers in ten cases and has
stopped appointing others.
1.-THE whole trouble" Detective Welch
SAYS, "has been caused by the lawyers, who
advised the farmers to oppose the receiv-
ers with violence if necessary"

AN INCREASING DEFICIT.
Secretary Carlisle and Other
Treasury Officials in a
Quandary.
They VIII Have to Abandon the
Scheme to Increase the Tax
on Beer.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 16.-Sec-
retary Carlisle to-day found the deficit
still increasing. Cash balances of the de-
partment have been reduced almost
$l4, ,000, 900. The Secretary is said to have
an accumulating deficit there would be no
necessity of devising new schemes of rails
ing the revenue before the regular meeting
of Congress next December. This was at
a time when there was considerable talk of
an extra session of Congress. 1t is believed
that ne will endeavor TO make his declara-
ton good and that the gold reserve will be
eaten into by the ordinary expenses of the
Government before the administration
will acknowledge that the condition of the
treasury demands relief at the hands of
Congress.
The treasury offici ais will doubtless pre-
pare some recommendation for raising the
revenue to be submitted to Congress when
it meets. What this recommendation will
be is hard to say. The suggestion that
more tax be placed upon beer has met with
opposition from brewers, and it is doubt
ful if the Democratic administration will
have the courage TO withstand that oppo-
sition. AS has often been pointed out an
additional dollar of internal revenue tax
upon each barrel of beer would mean an
increase of $32,0OO,0OO year in the Gov
ernment revenues.
The administration does not take kindly
to any proposition to increase the tariff
rates or to reimpose duties upon articles
which they placed on the free list in the
present law.
There is good reason to believe that the
system of bookkeeping by which the ex-
penditures were shown to be half their
normal amount in June will be practiced
again this month. A prominent treasury
official said to-day that there would be a
gradual diminution in expenditures, since
the pressing and extraordinary payments
that fell due during the first part of the
month have been met. He also said that
receipts from the tax on sugar will doubt
less increase and the deficit on August
will be much smaller than at present.

Pleased wtth the Olympia.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 16.-The
report of the Naval Inspecting Board, of
which Captain Frank Wilde was chairman,
on the trial of the new cruiser Olympia as
fully equipped naval vessel, was made
public to-day by Secretary Herbert.
Captain Wilde reports the return of the
Olympia to San Francisco, and says that
all evolutions and exercises regarding YES
sells newly commissioned were carried out.
During the four hours of her trial the
Olympia developed an average speed per
hour of 1876 knots.
The sea was smooth and the wind light.
Certain minor deficiencies and defects
were noticed, but Captain Wilde says all
repairs and changes can be made by the
ships force The general condition of the
ship as to cleanliness was excellent.
The speed developed by the Olympia
caused much qualification to naval Off
GERS, particularly as the vessel had dis
placement of 1000 tons more than she had
on her acceptance trial trip. The Olym-
pia was built by the Union Iron Works of
San Francisco.

KNIGHTS OF LABoR SUSPENDED.
Il District assembly Comprising 500
Members Debdrred.

BOSTON, MASS, July 16.-- District As
sembly No. 30, <. Of L., has been sus-
pended. 1t is the most important as
sembly of the organization in New Eng
Land and has membership of 500. 1t is
now on the point of joining the American
Federation of Labor
The suspension is the result of charges
made against M. j. Bishop, now second
highest officer of the Knights, by Martin
j. Fadden, former State master workman
of Massachusetts. Fadden, acting officially,
made charges against Bishop in the dis
trict assembly, but believing the charges
were not fully gone into a counter-com-
plant was made against Fadden to the
highest tribunal OF that organization. The
latter case went against Fadden and he
was suspended by the general officers for
one year.
The motive prompting the charges
against Fadden was considered so appar-
ent by the members of the organization in
this State that the district assembly by an
overwhelming vote refused to recognize
the authority of the superior body and
ordered his reinstatement. Notice of this
action was formally reported to the head
quarters of the order at Washington with
the result that an order of suspension has
been issued.

EAST Ell PASO FLOODED.
Hssndreds of People Made Homeless by
the Wdters.


Ell PASO, Tex, July 16.-The biggest
food since 1884 now RACES in the Rio
Grande valley. The river swept out of its
banks at midnight Sunday in the lower
part of the city and joined the irrigation
canal.
Before daylight the water rose over the
canals bank and flooded Cotton's addi-
ton. Mexlcans in adobe houses barely
escaped with their lives from their crum-
bling houses. By noon East Ell Paso was
flooded. The Southern Pacific depot in
East Ell Paso was swept away and forty
residences were flooded.
The city proper will probably escape the
ravages of the food by fifteen-foot levee.
The International copper. smelter, below
the city, is surrounded by water and in
danger of being washed away. Hundreds
of people have been rendered homeless
and the destruction of livestock is great.
i TECUMSEH, NEBR., July 16.-A heavy
storm of wind, rain and hail swept over
Johnson and Richardson counties this
evening, and so large were the hailstones
and so violent the wind that fruit trees
were stripped and it is thought that what
was most promising crop is practically
ruined. Corn and small grain not yet har-
vested were badly damaged. Several
houses were unroofed and window panes
shattered. No estimate of the loss can vet
be made,

VICTORY OF UNI0NIsTs.
Sir William Harcourt Made His
Temperance in the
Arena.
MR.. GULLY WAS INDICATED.
Arnold Morley the Fourth Ex-MIn-
ister Retired From the Liberal
Benches.

LONDON, ENG, July 16.-The steady in
creasein in the Unionists' strength has again
been the feature in to-day's polling for
members of the new Parliament. Re-
turns up to midnight show the election of
231 Conservatives and Unionists As Lib
erals, 13 McCarthyites and Parnellites,
making net Unionist gain of 81 seats. If
the counties from the lead of boroughs re-
vert to Unionism in the same proportion,
the party wire-pullers estimate that Lord
Salisbury will control a majority in the
Commons of over ninety over the COM
bined Liberal and Irish members. Such a
sanguine view, however, is in no wise as
sured. The Liberals build their hopes up
on the results in the counties to check the
Unionist food and neutralize the early
successes of that party.
Sir William Harcourt's temperance in
the arena and his acceptance of the nomi-
nation for the east division of Monmouth
shire, where G. M. Warrington, Home
ruler, who represented the division in the
last Parliament, declined to contest the
seat, has greatly encouraged the Liberals.
which Mr.. Warrington presided, the fol-
lowing telegram from Harcourt was read !:
"Your generous offer is gratefully ac-
cepted. If the constituency nominates me
I will fight the battle for the good cause in
West Monmouth. Let me know when and
where / ought to arrive"
The reading of the message was greeted
with round after round of cheers. Mr..
Warrington, who is well-known @. c.,
in 1892 defeated his Conservative opponent,
w. H. Meredith, by such an overwhelming
majority that the Unionists had resolved
not to contest his seat. Now, however, it
is understood that upon learning of Sir
William having taken the field, they have
determined to fight, and will nominate
Tory, w. E. Williams. The polling has
been fixed for the 23d inst The most that
the Tories can hope for is to reduce the
Liberal majority somewhat.
Among the features of to-day's polling
was the retention by W. c. Gully (Liberal)
of his seat for Carlisle by more than double
the majority he received in 1892.
This is not only source of qualification
to the Liberals, but also snub to Mr..
Balfour and his Conservative coleaders
for the unusual course in sanctioning the
attacks made upon Mr.. Gully when he took
the chair of speakership of the House of
Commons. Many Conservatives disap-
proved of the action of the party leaders
and will rejoice at the reelection of Mr..
Gully.

mold Morley, the late Postmaster-General,
sends the fourth ex-Minister from the
Liberal benches. Right Hon. Henry Hart
ley Fowler, Secretary of State for India in
the late Cabinet, who was opposed in the
East division OF Wolverhampton in 1892,
was elected by more than thousand
majority.

REVISION OF TARIFFS.
Many Articles Placed on the Free Lis

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 16.-The
British colony of Victoria has been revis-
ing its tariffs and proposes to admit the
following articles, among others, free of
duty:
American miners gumboots, horses, car
peting and felt druggeting, certain drugs,
bleached Hessians (boots), military hos
iery. indiarubber gloves and skin rubbers,
special preparations of infants and invalids
for orders, breast drills and bucket ears,

bent; slaves, roughly dressed but not
shaped; sycamore, not cut into sizes for
boxes or packages; toe tips, cotton twine,
wine presses, elm hubs and wooden buck
cts.
A reduction is proposed by both the
Government and the tariff board on the
duty now assessed on Learly every article
in the present tariff law. The Govern
ment, however, proposes to increase the
duty on spirits to almost if not quite a
prohibitive figure, namely, 15 shillings per
gallon.

PORTLAND, Or, July 16.-The direc-
tors of the Irvington Driving Association
are surprised and indignant at the charges
made by c. H. Corey, San Jose horse
man, in the Examiner, that the purses of
visiting horsemen were withheld because
they could not pay them.
While California and Montana horse
men are not satisfied with the financial
management of the big meet here, Corey
is denounced for his groundless charges,
because he got all that was due him before
leaving, which amounted to $50.
Bad weather interfered with some of the
last and best days of the meet, and al
though some of the horsemen have had
trouble in effecting a satisfactory settle
ment with the association Corey, who is
said to have the least ground for COM

represented the facts in the case.

CHICAGO, ILL, July 16.-The laurels
for the Western tennis championship,
which for four years have been held by
Sam T. Chase, have been transferred to
Carr B. Neel, who won them in well-con-
tested match by score of 81, 6-3 and
g. The games were for the most part
beautiful plays. with the ball passing time
after time over the net, now in smashing
lawford and again in welI-calculated lob.
For some reason Chase lacked the self
confidence which usually shows in his
playing on the tennis court, and ably as
sisted his opponent by driving ball after
ball out of the court. He did very effective
work with his lobbing, and won the
plaudits of his admirers by his brilliant
smashes.
Neel was conservative as usual, and cal
culated every shot carefully. It was his
careful play which won the championship,
and which has stood him in good stead in
