OREGON ELECTION.
The Next Legislature viii be Over
wfeImingiy Republican.

PORTLAND (Or.), June 2-The next
Leg stature of Oregon will be over
whelmingly Republican. The candi-
dates of that party in nearly every
county have majorities or pluralities.
Up to this evening the returns show
that only two Democrats have been
elected, and they are Democratic Pop
ulists in Clatsip County. Some Popu-
list Representatives and Senators are
elected in the Willamette Valley, owing
to the fusion with Democrats
In Portland the situation is somewhat
mixed. Jonathan Burne, Jr., the leader
of Senator Mitchell's campaign, is
elected to the lower house, while one Or
two anti Mitchell men are elected. 1t
is likely that two Democratic nomi-
nees for the State Senate are elected.
1t viii take some time yet to tell ac-
curately Senator Mitchell's chances for
reelection. Most of the Republicans
are for silver, but many of them do not
favor Mitchell.
The Chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee claims the election
of fifty-five straight Republican Repre-
sentatives of total of sixty elected
The Populists claim to have elected
thirty fusion Representatives

from nineteen precincts give Bean

Chairman Hirsch of the Republican
State Committee claims sixty of the
ninety members of the Legislature on
joint ballot. including twelve hold
over Senators. OF these thirty-one are
known to be elected, and he comedies
ten Populsts elected, with one hold
over and two Democrats. There are
thus fifty-six members known to have
won. and forty-four yet to be heard
from. OF the latter thirteen are in
Multnomah County, all Of whom will be
Republicans. The only contest in
Portland is between the regular Repub-
lican nominees and the Mitchell Repub-
Ecans. The important question is
whether or not Senator Mitchell will
have enough for reelection. Should he
carry Multnomah County his re-elec-
ton is assured
Returns late tonight from thirty-two
precincts of Mu1tnomah County out of
seventy-three in the city, give the regu-
lar Republican legislative ticket 2,292

THE CONFESSION
OF A MURDERER.
Jos. ]. EbankS, Under Sentence to be
Hanged on June Nineteenth,
Admits Having Killed Mrs. Stiles and
Her Aged Father.

SAN DIEGO, June 2-Joseph J..
Ebanks, who is under sentence to be
hanged June 10Th for the murder of
Mrs. Harriet Stiles and her aged father,
John ID. Borden, near Oceanslde on
September 10th last, has made a full
confession of his crime.
In the presence of Assistant District
Attorney UtIey, Sheriff Jennings, Dep
uty Sheriff Fred Jennings and a stenog-
rapher, Ebanks related the story, which
was both pathetic and revolving. He
told of his journey down the railway
track near the mussel beds, of his pick
ing up an orange by the wayside and
eating IT. The fruit made him i'll, and
spying tent near the railway he visited
it in quest of medicine. Borden and Mrs
Stiles greeted him, and the former
promised to find the wayfarer something
to relieve him. The old man observed
the muZzle of a revolver protruding from
a sack carried by Ebanks, and he made
a motion as if to secure his own gun.
Ebanks Immediately surnised that
Borden was going to attack him, and he
blindly fired at the old man, who fell
to the ground with a moan.
Mrs Stiles asked Ebanks why he had
shot her father, and informed him that
Borden was unarmed and had no hos
tile intentions. Realizing his predica-
ment, the murderer bade Mrs. Stiles
kneel and pray, telling her that though
life was sweet to both, he preferred
liberty to hanging, and SO she must die
to insure his safety.
She knelt by the cot" continued
Ebanks, 'and l wept while she prayed.
l told her 1 did not want to kill her, but
it was my only refuge. When she fin
ished praying she arose from her knees
and faced me without saying a word
Closing my eyes I shot her-where do
not know. The first bullet did not kill
her, and / fired a second time.
After satisfying myself that Borden
had no gun, I walked to the door of the
tent and made three attempts to shoot
myself, but the shells would not explode
then noticed what / thought was a
movement of the old mans body, and to
make sure, / shot him once more Re-
turning to the railroad track I tried to
shoot myself again, but could not pull
the trigger, so l threw the gun away"
Ebanks concludes by detailing his
preparations to escape from jail TAX
ing the stiff steels from his shoes he con-
Verted them into files, and procuring an
iron bale from bucket he transformed
it into spear with which to kill the
jailer. His plan was to saw the bars of
his cell, stab the guard, secure the keys
and pistol and fight his way to liberty
He states that his one desire is to see
his children before he dies. They live
on the Island Of Grand Caymen, West
Indies. Ebanks wishes to withdraw his
appeal for new trial, and is ready to
hang.

THE SEARCH FOR DUNHAM.
The Officers Now Working ON a New
CIew

SAN JOSE, June 2.-Sheriffs Lyndon
and Ballou took the south bound train
this morning to head posse to follow
a clew that was struck by Deputies
Gardner and Rivers between Bells Sta
ton and the Mountain House. The in
dications were that the fugitive, by
night marches, was moving south as
fast as he could. Along the line several
houses have been broken into to afford
shelter for portions of the night when
the man was not travelling, the nights
being very cold now in the mountains.
ON A NEW TRAIL
HOLLISTER, June 2.-Sheriffs Bal
lou and Lyndon, with the former s
bloodf1ounds, arrived on the noon train
to-day and, accompanied by Sheriff
Holbrook, started for Quien Sabe VAL
ley, fourteen miles east of this place. A
courier was sent ahead early this morn
ing to procure guides and saddle horses.
It was leamedfrom Lyndon that Dun
ham was seen last evening crossing the
Maaarin ranch, headed for the Quien
Sabe To reach Quien Sabe Dunham
must pass through Alvarado district,
a sparseiy settled region, where news of
his crime will not be received for weeks
to come. The inhabitants are princi-
pally Mexicans, who would furnish
Duniham with food and ammunition.
The same is true of Quien Salbe. but the
chances of hiding are fewer. Dunham
can keep along the ridge as far as the
New Iberia mines, and thence to Cam
t11a Canyon, the old retreat of the BAN
dit Vasquez.
To head him off Sheriff HoIbroolx has
dispatched Constable Stowell and a.
posse to work their way down from Pf-
noche Holbrook, Lyndon and Ballou
will reach QIien Sabe Valley through
the wild Cranky One country. while
Sheriff Matthews of Salinas, with his
hounds, is working UP the Tres Pinos
Creek to the mines. All peace officers
OF this county have joined in the search.

One hundred families who found homes
in freight cars were turned out in the
rain to-day, and a committee Of island
ers made an appeal to Mayor RAIDER for
tents. He Immediately telegraphed the
Governor for 100 tents.
Those able to move made their way
to Riverside, where seventy tents are
standing. They were compelled to
drive back many of the newcomers to
prevent panic.
The fight for the necessities of life is
G. desperate one. The relief committee
is having hard time controlling the
poor and making an equal distribution.
AT present they are expending about
ST 900 daily for food, clothing and cots.
They need $500 more a day, but the sup
