PORTLAND, Or, Oct. IA new mes

throughout the country. He is Dr. Tryon,
and it IS claimed he has performed some
wonderful cures by use of divine healing
power. The lame, the halt, the blind and
the crippled have been focking from far
and near to be touched by the magnetic
healer. DR.. Tryon is heralded by the spir-

if not superior, to those of the great physi-
clan of Nazareth.

after satisfying their immediate necessities
by dining on some young stock which they
met, took to the woods.
The news of the bears escape soon

started large part of the male population

The animals, however, were very cunning
or the hunters very careful, for at last ac-

TEXAS DAMAGED In DOCK
Accident to the Cruiser in the
Brooklyn Navy Yard.
More Serious Than the One Suffered
by the COIum bia-Bottom of the
Vessel Has Been Bent in.

Reports have been received here that the
battleship Texas has been badly damaged
at the Brooklyn navy yard, and the timber
dock in which she lies has been partly
flooded to prevent further disaster. ''-.
The accident, though similar to that
which occurred to the Columbia at South
ampton, England, is stated to be of more
serious character.
1t is learned that the bottom Of the ves-
sci for some distance amidships has been
bent in, cracking the cement lining on
the inner skin and that at least twenty
ribs or frames are buckied.
The full extent of the damage is not
known, but the perplexing problem at
present Is how to save the ship, rs 1t would
be hazardous to pump out the dock without
removing her guns and all extra weights
The Texas was put in the dry docka week
ago today In order to clear her submerged
straiDers which were choked with sea-
weed and mud from her long stay at Nor.
folk and to clean the barnacles from her
bottom.
1t was found that her propeller nd blades
were badly bent, necessitatng ordering her
spare blades from Norfolk, which was
promptly done.
By the time the water was all pumped
out those in charge discovered that the ship
was steadily settling and the keel was show
ing evidences of collapsing. So the order was
given to flood the dock as deep as the pro-
peller shafts, in order that the water might
partially support the ship.
This was done, but an examination of the
interior of the vessel showed that she was
still settling, and the dock was further
flooded. Az Official report was sent to the
Navy Department. where the matter is
now under consideration.

The detail of the flagship San Francisco
to assist the cruiser Marblehead in caring
for American interests in the Levant (as IL
nounced in United Press dispatches last
night) is likely to be followed by an order
dispatching other American warships to
that part of the world II the Armenian
situation does not improve.
II is known that Secretary Olney is in
favor of leaving nothing undone to show the
Porte that citizens of the United States in
the Sultan's possessions must be respected
in their rights, and that the numerous Amer
lean educational institutions in Armenia
must be protected from mob violence.
THE ENTIRE FLEET.
The orders to the San Francisco were
expected iD view Of Mr.. olney's senti-
ments and the only surprise expressed is
that no other vessels have been given
similar orders.
In view of the fact that the San Fran
cisco and the Marbehead constitute the
entire American naval force on the Eu.
ropean station 1t will be necessary for this
government in the event OF a determine
ton to augment these two cruisers to
draw on Its fleet now attached to the
Asiatic station.
MAY BE WITHDRAWN.
This fleet consists of the Baltimore, the
Olympia, the Munocacy. the Concord, the
Petrel, the Charleston. the Machias, the
Yorktown. and the Detroit. and in view of
comparative safety of American interests
III China at present, owing TO the punish
ment of the ku-Cheng murderers and the
prospect of speedy redress for the assaults
ON missionaries in Cheng-tu aud its vicinity,
such large force is not now necessary. and
some of the vessels may safely be with
drawn for service In the Levant.
AS the Baltimore has been relieved by the
Olympia and will soon start for the United
States il is likely that her commander will
be directed TO return by way of the Indian
Ocean. the sea of Arabia and the Red Sea.
so that she may join the San Francisco
and the Marblebead on the Syrian coast
The Charleston and the Detroit might
also be called on for this service, and
could proceed by the route stated.

reply TO the identical note OF Germany,
Austria. and Italy demanding that the
porte's scheme for reform in Armenia be
officially communicated to them has in
formed the representatives uf these govern
ments that their request will be compiled
with without delay.
Later news from the disturbed sections
shows that the situation in Asia Minor
has become more serious than ever. Fresh
disturbances are reported 10 have occurred
in Marash, Bitlis, and Siyas.
Ii is reported that the Turkish garrison
at Zeiteoun, which surrendered to the Ar
menians, have given up their arms and
ammunition and that the Arincnians now
OCCUPY the Zeitoun barrac cks.
Advices from Zeitnun, Asia Minor, say
that the Turkish garrison at that place has
been compelled tu surrender to the Arfne-
mans.
The financial situation in Constantinople
is still unsatisfactory, and the impression
prevails that the powers have agreed upon
joint action in the matter.
Americans here are somewhat anxious
owing to the absence for several days of
news from the districts in which there are
American missions
United States Minister Terrell has wired
to Darput asking Missionary Darnham. who

Every bucket shop in the District may
expect with confidence that something will
happen in legal way in which each will
have a direct interest just as soon as the
necessary evidence is obtained upon which
to base action.
United States District Attorney Birney
said to The Times to-day that these cases
will have his attention as rapidly as pre-
sented, and 1T may be inferred that steps
are being taken to discover the estab-
lishmcnts, with evidence forthcoming to
establish the charges.
Mr.. Birney added that legitimate dealers
have no cause To fear interruption, but in
all cases of arrest it will be incumbent upon
the accused to show q clean record.
"Of course, we cannot control the action
OF the p,lice," added Mr.. Birney, but /
have every reason to believe that the force
will he careful, as they usually are, and
that no arrests will be made without the
evidence to support them"
