Hanson, who was in charge of the boat
that was picked up. Hanson states
that about Ills o'clock last night, as
the Colima was about so miles from
ManZanillo. and between that port and
Punta San Telmo, an accident occurred
to her machinery. Hansen did not have
time to investigate the trobue, but
believed the boiler had burst. The CO.
lima was put about. but began to sink
rapidly. A scene of confusion and wild
disorder followed. One boat was low
cred and five others swung out. but so
far as Hansen knows the boat he COM
mander was the only one that got clear
of the sinking ship. She quickly floun-
dered. and to avoid suction. Hansen's 8
boat quickly pulled clear. and the night
being dark, IL was impossible to tell
whether the other boats pulled away
from the wreck or not. If these boats
only got clear away. the calmness OF
the sea and the sloping beach 20 miles
distance should enable them to effect a
safe landing in a few hours. AS the
passengers were all asleep. however.

hands will also control the selection
of district delegates and there are some
who think Foraker may come out in
1896 as Garfield did in 1850. which would
mean that Mckinley would come out
as Sherman did at that time. If the
republicans carry the state next No
vember and Bushnell becomes governor
and Foraker senator. there is no tell
ing at all what will happen in Ohio in
1896 and thereafter. Should Bushnell
serve four years as governor he would
probably succeed Sherman in the SEN

the old school Of republicans would all

Special Dispatch to the standard
Bonner's Ferry, Idaho, May 29.-Word
was brought up yesterday evening of a
ghastly find in the kootenai river, 30
miles below this place. George b. Whit
ney, a rancher, discovered the body OF a
fioater, lodged in the driftwood near the
shore. The body was that of a white man
and was badly decomposed, but was suffl-
ciently preserved to bear unmistakable
evidences of foul play. The body was
stark naked. There were four dagger
wounds in the breast near the heart. The
feet were pinioned together with wire,
which was evidently attached to a weight
to sink the body. Having sufficient evil
dence terrible crime had been COM
mtted, no further examination was made
pending the arrival of the coroner. No
one here can conjecture who the victim is,
but report comes from Troy, Mont, 80
miles up the river that Great Northern
raj road man disappeared there last fall
under circumstances that aroused suspic-
ion Of foul play. Time may clear up the
mystery. but II Is evident that n foul muir
der has been committed, and the assassin
has attempted to cover up his crime in n

Omaha, May 29.-Mr. Egan cannot
gain possession of the Oregon Short
Line e Utah Northern Railroad COM
pany lines until the American Loan &
Trust company complies with Judge
Sanborn's order. which must be ex-
tended by the orders yet TO be made
by Judge Gilbert at Portland at a
hearing set for Monday next, and
Judge Merritt at Salt Lake. at a hear
ing not yet set. Judge Sanborn's or
der extended the other Jurisdiction to
require the American Loan & Trust
company to Immediately pay all de-
faulted interests of mortgages first on
the system. on the interest default is
not $l.000.000, including the interest Of
the Utah * Northern consolidated
fives, amounting to $4,000 This
amount will be reduced by the applica-
tion of S1S0,OO0 which Judge Sanborn
yesterday afternoon. upon further con-
sideration. determined it would be safe
to direct the present receivers to ad-
vance for that purpose. Efforts were
made to secure an agreement by rep
resentatives of the American Loan &
Trust company that interest on Utah
Northern consolidated bonds will
also be paid. but the efforts were fruit
less. Judge Sanborn further requires
that company to meet all future ac-
cruing first mortgage interest pay
ments. the largest of which falls due
in the next two or three months
While the present receivers will make
no contest at Portland. the Oregon
Short Line & Utah Northern Railroad
company, and many of its bondholders,
will contest the right to make any or
der for raising money by receivers
certificates to pay off the interest
which the American Loan & Trust
company must pay. and any such or
der. if made, will be at once appealed
from.
Senator Thurston said that while the
receivers could not claim a complete
victory, they were thoroughly salts
fed with the equitable and just order
made by Judge Sanborn over the ore
gon Short Line case He said the re-
ceiver TO the property would take IL
with many burdens. and he gave forth
the impression that the order was
simply the opening gun in what prom
ises to be the most exciting campaign
in western railroad annals L. S.
Pierce. representing first mortgage in
terests. thought the value of the re-
ceivers' certificates would be greatly
abridged when all the facts became
known. Looking at il from a business
standpoint. he could not see how the
prospective purchasers of receivers
certificates could afford to invest mon-
ey in so much uncertainty.
