A BOLD HOLD UP.
d. W. Hurt, of wala waIla, Robbed
on Morrison Street, Portland.

Mr.. D. w. Hurt. of Walla Walla, came
up from Portland yesterday on the Regu-
lator, and is stopping today at the Una
tIlla house. He had quite an experience
in Portland Wednesday night. He had
been at the theater and was on his way
to his hotel, the Esmond, about 10:30
He came down Morrison street on, the
South Side, and when near the middle
of the block between First and Second
streets, as he passed the entrance to
stairway a woman standing in the stair
way spoke to him. As he turned his
face towards her man standing in the
stairway poked pistol in his face, the
end of the barrel striking him on his
cheek and almost punching his right eye
out. At the same time he was COM
manded to throw up his hands. I was
so surprised, said Mr.. Hurt, in telling
our reporter of it, that my hands went
up almost involuntarily, but as 1 am
pretty sick and sore, they went up pretty
slowly, and told the gentleman to give
me little time, as 1 was stiff. My
hands were not fairly up, before the
woman made dive with both hands,
one going into each of my pockets, and
in five seconds from the first command
to throw up my hands, my money was
gone, and SO were my attentive friends.
They only got about nine dollars, but
they got safe check for some money
had deposited in the hotel safe, and 1
had considerable trouble on that account
in getting my money. The street was
as light as day and full of people, and 1
certainly had no expectation of being
held up. A policeman was standing on
the corner not hundred feet distance.
and at first would hardly believe my
story. The robbers as soon as they got
the money ran up the stairs, and I sup
pose left the building through some
other entrance. The police wanted Mr..
Hurt to stay and see if they could find
the robbers, but Mr.. Hurt thought he
had contributed all he cared to, and re-
fused to enter a complaint. He takes
the loss of the money, although quite
a sum to him, good naturedly, but avows
his intention of keeping the middle Of
the road next time he visits Portland.

The CorneIl-Taylor Case.

An Associated Press dispatch this
morning from Saginaw, Michigan, says ::
The most celebrated case on the GRIM
inal docket here in some time has ended.
1t was against Rev. o. D. Taylor. of Ore
gon, a man of wealth and influence.
The Information alleged that the de-
fendant, by false representations OBJ
tanned the signature of DIR. D. G. Cornell
on three promissory notes for $1,000
each.
Mr.. Taylor, it is claimed, represented
that he was the president and general
manager of the Interstate Investment
Company of Oregon, with headquarters
at Portland.
The case had no sooner started than
Taylor's attorney moved for dismissal
on the ground that the statute under
which the charge was made had been re-
pealed. Judge Snow, after several
hours deliberation, decided the point
was we'll taken, and refused to hear tes-
timony.

OF for the Islands.

Our young townsmen, Fred w. Wilson
and Ed. Wingate, have engaged passage
on the steamship Mop and
will leave Portland Monday for Hawaii.
They go by Victoria where they will
probably spend ChrIstnas. They ex-
pect to remain on the Islands for a
month or six weeks, and as they go
with the intention of not only having an
enjoyable trip, but also of examining
into the resources and business possi-
bilities of the islands, they may stay
longer. Wherever they may go or how
ever long they may stay their friends
here, and that means the entire COM
munity, will bear them in memory and
have warm corner in each heart re-
served for them on their return.

Work for Everybody.


Our fellow-townsman, Mr.. Hugh
Glenn, is fairly in it if the subjoined
statement concerning the work on the
Astoria & Goble railroad is correct. 1t
says:
Before the election, owing to the
free silver agitation, orders were given
to the contractors to reduce their force
to point where the monthly outlay
came to very few thousands of dollars.
This meant reduction of the force to
minimum, and involved the discharge of
large number of men and teams, and
the withdrawal of purchases of all kinds
of supplies, especially IN the line of farm
products, such as hay, oats barley, ba-
con, potatoes, ETC., but, now that the
election of Mckinley is an assured fact,
orders have been issued to the general
contractors to resume work to the fullest

A POOR couNTERFEITER.
Daniel seavey Arrested Saturday Night.

Saturday 7 afternoon Deputy Marshal
Hartnett was informed that a man had
tried to pass a counterfeit silver dollar
for some groceries. His manner of doing
this led the grocery dealer to think that
it was deliberate attempt at cheating
and not the innocent act of laboring
man who had taken a counterfeit dol
lar.
Deputy Marshal Hartnett directed Pa
trolmen Frank and Morse to arrest this
man, and they sent Daniel W. Seavey to
the station. He Jig young man of 81,
W no has of late been selling door plates
of his own manufac ture. At the sta
ton Seavey said that he received the dol
lar he tried to pass from a man who
changed S. bill for him. He could not
remember anything about the man, and
could not give clear or satisfactory ac-
count of what no did with the balance
Of the money, and Marshal Tricky Or
dered a search to be made Of the single
room forming the home of Seayey, at No.
5 Vine street.
There they found a genuine dollar
minted in 1881, and also mould for the
running of counterfeit dollars. A small
quantity of white metal and aluminium
was also found, perhaps also used by
Seavey for other than making of door
plates. A bag of plaster paris was found
and two glass tumblers in which it had
been III liked.
The mould appeared to be new and was
fairly we'll made. The dollar was of the
ceive anyone not in the habit of handling
much money, especially if offered at
night. The milling was apparently all
obtained from the die. Seavey is evil
IDENTIFY by no means an expert counter
feiter, even if he did, as alleged, make
the mould.
Seavey denied having made the mould
with the idea of counterfeitlng, money,
but as near as he could he followed
with the idea of getting up tokens"
or something of the sort. He insisted that
the counterfeit dollar he tried to pass
was given to him las part of the change
he received for S. bill
He is evidently very OBJ, and it is not
believed by any means hardened often
der, but at the same time his arrest Is
regarded as one of much importance, as
dollars from the Vine street mint might
well haveS caused not only loss, but
trouble to small dealers, peddlars and
others unused to detecting counterfeit
money. There WAS a piteous lack Of
furniture in the hum BILE little room he
occupied and there was very little if any
thing to eat. He is unmarried. but pro-
vides for a sister.

Alleged Desertion.

Marshal Triokey Saturday evening
ordered thu arrest of Alonzo S. Cobb,
of Wakefield, Mass, and Nellie A. Morse,
also of the same state. Some two weeks
ago Mrs. Cobb came here from Massa
ohusetts and asked to have her husband
arrested if found, alleging that he de.
serted her for another woman. Mrs
Cobb also charged that while an order
of court had been obtained directing
him to provide for the support of his
children, he had dlsregarded it aftel
having for time provided for them in
part.
Marshal Tricky found the couple at
q place where both had secured work.
Cobb denied that he had represented the
woman to be his wife, or that they had
lived together as man and wife. The
circumstances were, however, such as to
lead the marshal to decide to N axe an
arrest. Cobb is about 40 and the woman
is considerably younger and rather at
traotiye.

A FoRoER BRIDEGROOM.
Came Here and Got Married and Passed
Worthless Checks.

A few days ago young couple came
here from Boston and went TO well
known clergyman to be married. After
the ceremony the groom passed to the
clergyman check for $40. Then the
groom invited the clergyman and his
wife to accompany himself and bride in
ride about town the next day, in order
that the couple might see the city. The
invitation was accepted, and the tour had
very pleasant ride. The bride and
groom parted from the clergyman with
many expressions of regard, eyiden tly
sincere. Later on the clergyman had
an inquiry from we'll known stabl 9
keeper as to the identity of the young
man. 1t turned out that ne had pre-
sented u check in payment for his oarri-
age and the check had come back marked
worthless. The fellow paid his hotel bill
with bogus check, and 1t is almost
needless to state that the check he gave
to the clergyman was also no good. The
couple have left town and their wherea-
bouts cannot be ascertained. The bride
is described al lady of very attractive
qualities. She will doubtless be charmed
when she finds out the character of the
man she has married.
The police have been working on the
case.

PEACEFUL MEN KILLED
One Instance of Spanish Brrbarity as seen
from a Railway.

Havana, May 81, via Key West. Fla.
May 23.-The remains of five Cuban
peasants, who were butehersd over a week
ago by Spanish troops. may be seen from
the narrow gauge railway which runs
from Duran to San Antonio de Las We
gas, Havana province. The ciroumstanc-
es of the affair were as follows: While
Col. Pablo Landa, commanding She
Principe squadron. was accommodating
near Duran on May II, five men were
made prisoners. Three oolored men
were taken from the fields when they
were at work. A white man, Esteyan
Hernande, was taken from his home on
ranch "AZcarte," and Ruffino Gonzales
was taken from the farm "Noyo." Col.
Landa, Oh suspicion that the 1--we men
were rebel spies, ordered them killed.
They were hacked to pieces with machetes
by the troops and their bodies left to the
dogs and yultures. The remains are still
unburied though the men were killed
nine days ago. Passengers arriving from
Bstab ano yesterday state that II bodies,
terribly hacked, were brought In by the
troops Of that place. No details of fight
could be obtained, and it is supposed
that the dead were taken in the rebel
camp that was captured near Batabano
several days ago.

Failure of Abbey, schoeffel and Grau

New York, May 28 .-Messrs. Abbey,
Sohoeffel & Grau, controlling the Metro
politan opera house and Abbey's theatre
in this ciGy and the fremont theatre in
Boston, have made an assignment for the
benefit of their creditors.
When the assignees have made their re-
port, it will probably be found that the
sum total owed by the firm does not ex-
coed $500, 600, and possibly it may proys
to be somewhat lesser sum. Against
this the firm has numerous assets, which.
if carefully nursed and not forced upon
the market, may produce $500, 900, OF at
least $780, 900. This does not include a
sale of the firms lease of the Metropoli-
tan opera house, for that cannot be dis.
posed of. BY the very act of assignment
it is Cancelled.
