TWO CAPTURED.
They Were Driving a Band of Horses
Into Oregon.


Into Oregon.
WALLA WALLA, WASH, March g.
Sheriff Ellingsworth and Constable
Gibbs overlook and arrested Charles Orr
and an accomplice, said to be butcher,
who had stolen and were driving band
of horses from Eureka Flat into Oregon.
The stealing had been going on for a
long time, but the thieves could not be
apprehended. Orr and companion came
into town to-day, leaving the band near
the city, and when returning to resume
the drive were met by Gibbs, who noti-
fed Ellingsworth, and the two started
and overlook the men about three miles
below the city. Ellingsworth covered
the men with gun, and his command
to throw up their hands was obeyed.
The officers brought both men to the
city and locked them in the county Jail.
Orr is brother-in-law of the Powell
brothers, who operated in the horse
business on Eureka Flat for years, but
at the request Of officers vanished.

THE GOVERNMENT WON.
A Case Involving Claims for Rebates of
Tariff.

Case Involving CIaims TOT heDates Vi
Tariff.
New YORK, March 7.-Among the de-
cisions handed down to-day in the
United States circuit court OF appeals
was one which was signal victory for
the government, the decision in question
being in the case of the United States
against E. Rosenwald q Bro, import
ers. The judgment of the lower court
in favor of the importers is reversed, and
the collectors classification of Sumatra
tobacco, on which the case hinges, is
sustained. The case is unusually i'm
portant, because the refunds claimed by
importers of Sumatra tobacco under the
tariff of 1888, still unpaid, amount to
over 81, 900, 900. The decision may en-
able the government to prevent any re-
covery at ali by the importers. In ad-
dition it will probably prevent any future
similar claims for refunds.

Belligerent Attitude Toward
Japan.
DESPITE HER LOVE OF PEACE

She VIII Object, So the Press Says to
Japan Acquiring Chinese Territory
or Retaining Corea-A Time for Ja-
pan to Pause and Consider.
ST.. PETERSBURG, March 6. The
Grashdanin says that if Japan should
insist on any partition of China or on
acquiring Corea. she would assuredly
have to reckon with Russia as an armed
antagonist.
The Moscow Gazette says: 'It is inn
possible to permit the smallest seizure
of Chinese soil by Japan. Corea must
be evacuated and further encroachments
prevented. If Japan has anything OF
that nature in view, it is time for her to
pause and consider, as in such a case
the neutrality Of Russia cannot De
counted upon despite her love OF peace.

nov Maver. when asked what had been
the result of the experts examination,
said:
~ cannot discuss the disclosures made
by the examination OF the company's
hooks. as to give details would be quite
improper at this time. l have no objec-
ton to saying that there lie at hand the
most substantial evidence which places
the old managers in an unenvlable posi-
ton. The profigate recklessness, not
to cav dishonesty, with which certain
deals were made are astounding. Con.
tracts. in which some of the officers
were financially interested and which
needlessly cost the company vast
ann of money, were made with the "a
cility with which q child blows bubbles
from pipe. The old management has
been a mosaic of rottenness, whose ex-
posure both Justice and the rights Of the
: defrauded stockholders demand"

ylded that 1890, 900 should be appropri-
ated instead of 100000. The amend

measure accepting it with favor. Taylor
had previously opposed the measure,
Int he with others of the opposition
were willing to support it if a sufficient
amount to complete the capitol were
appropriated at one time. They pc
lieved that an appropriation by each
legislature tended to extravaganza. Nor
pan of Walla Walla moved to lay the
bill on the table. This motion was lost
-23 to 44-the Populists supporting 1t.
The bill was then put on its final pass
age. Before the vote Scobey made q
speech in favor of the bill. He said the
amendment had been offered by certain
gentlemen who were previously opposed
to the measure, but had now come to
its support. Rogers, the Populistt, made
a long speech against the bill. lie re-
peated the argument made before, the
committee that the state was too hare
up to expend money for building a

Queer Pulpit Utterances.

BOSTON, March THE Rev. W. H.
Smith, of South Acton, one of the lead
ing Universalist ministers, declared that
80 per cent of ministers were looking for
new parishes, and were muzzled by cir
cumstances. He said: 81 think when
a rich man hears that number of peo-
pie have been killed in q mine he re-
joices. That is the spirit among the
rich. Then the rich are over-reaching,
taking advantage of the poor in every
direction. l believe we shall yet have a
war in which every man will carry the
for rich men as they do for squirrels.
He closed by quoting: "The republic
is delusion, freedom dream and the
song of liberty funeral dirge." The
other clergymen have expressed their
disapproval of Mr.. Smiths remarks.
