On the Trail of a Criminal.


FENDLEToN, Or, Jan. T.-After a
diligent search Ct four days Sheriff
Houser has struck the trail of the man
who held up Postmaster johnson and
robbed the Pendleton postofice Mon
day night. Yesterday the sheriff
learned that man answering John
sons description Of the. robber had
passed through Dayton, WASH. and,
suspected that Waitsburg was his des-
tination, the sheriff wired the officers
there to detain him. However, the
fellow eluded the officers, and has not
been seen since. From the informa-
tion which Houser has obtained, 1t
seems that the horse ridden by the
stranger ears striking resemblance
to one which was seen In the alley
back of the postoffice shortly before
the robbery, and the dress of the rider
was exactly like that of the robber.
Two local officers are now in Waits
burg endeavoring to again strike the
trail.

| WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-There was
most unusual demonstration at the
opening of the session of the house to-
day. The blind chaplain, whose ar.
dent Americanism has frequently oc.
casioned remark, prayed fervent-y to-
day for struggling Cuba and the "suc-
cess of her battle for. independence. p"
When he concluded he was given a
heartily round of applause.
The president sent special message
to the house urging the necessity for
immediate legislation to extend the
| time within which suits can be brought
| by the government to annual grants of
public lands. He called attention to
the numerous complications that have
arisen between the railroads as to
grants that overlapped and the neces-
sity for their adjustment. The time
IN which suits can be brought expires
March 8, 1895, and if the limit were al
lowed to expire then a portion of the
adjustment act will be rendered nuga-
tory. The government, the president
says. in conclusion, should not be pre-
vsnted from going into the courts and
righting the wrong perpetrated by its
agents.
The message was referred to the
committee on public lands.
The house then went into commit
tee of the whole for the consideration
OF the pensions appropriations, under
the five minute rule.

Arbor DaY.

State Superintendent Irwin is dis
cussing the advisability of preparing
a formal programme for the observance
of Arbor Day--the second Friday OF
April-by the public schools of the
state. ia accordance with the provis-
ions of the law of 1889, which com
mands the observance of such day.
Il directs that uniform programme be
prepared and sent out from that office
to all the districts of the state and the
only question about doing it this year
is that Of expense. 1t has not been
done every year since the law was en-
acted, but the day has been quite gen.
orally observed according to local ar
rangements. The Salem schools make
big day of it, planting trees and
shrubs and enjoying literary exercises.
The state board of education will prob
ably sanction the issuing OF pro-
gramme, as the expense is small.

unfounded pretension of right in cases

other unfounded pretensions, as mani
festation of an unfriendly disposition
toward the United States, and as an
which it would be impos-
sible in any form for the United States
TO regard with indifference"

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Jan. 19.-Sen-
sational stories are afloat here tonight.
Governor Mitchell, at the request of
the war department in Washington.
has ordered Adiutant-General Houston
to see that the Florida militia be
placed in readiness to take the field at
moments notice. The governor, it
is reported, will call the militia to-
gether tomorrow. In the meantime
the acknowledgement is quietly issuing
orders. Similar requests, it is report
ed, have been sent to the government
OF other Southern states. The story
has become generally known and is
causing excitement throughout the
South.
Governor Mitchell and Adjutant-
Houston were asked in regard to it,
but they refused to talk. General
Houston has been in his Office all day,
and has sent kilograms to all battalion
commanders in the state. Major Tur-
ner, of Jacksonville, commanding the
First Florida battalion, has received
several messages from General Hous-
ton. The battalion commanders at
Tampa and Pensacola have also re-
ceived messages from General Houston
during the day.
1t is stated, as coming from the ex-
ecutive office, that the Washing gton |
authorities have reason to believe that
a deal is pending between spain and |
England for the sale of Cuba to the |
latter: that the United States is pre-
pairing to resist the transfer of the
island, and that the flying squadron
is coming to American waters to be
ready for war with the United States.
which will inevitably follow an at
tempted cession of Cuba.
Dispatches from various cities in
Florida report that the troops are gath
sring and that the war fever is higher
now than the day after President
Venezuela message.

WHAT GERMANS SAY.
Open Ansi-nnsll.A Policy to be sollowsa

Open Anti-Engiish Policy to be Followed
l, IN colonial a ffa.rs- -
BERLIN, Jan. 18.-fCopyright 1895,
by the Associated Press)-The week
has ended with everyone's thoughts
directed to the imperial anniversary.
The excitement caused by the Trans
vaal incident is gradually abating, and
the newspapers uniformly express the
opinion that this difficulty will be ad-
justed by diplomacy, although there
may be critical stages of the negotia-
tions. The anti-English spirit, how
ever, which was aroused by the inva-
sion of the Beers rupublic, survives
with full vigor, and it is significant
that those in political circles who are
in touch with the government have
the idea that an open anti English pol
icy will henceforth be followed by Ger
many, especially in colonial affairs.
A conservative leader, discussing
the recent complications, said that
in conversation which he had had
with the emperor, the latter said he
had put himself at the head of united
European coalition against Great Brit
ain, and that the threats of the latter
to join the zweibund (the so-called al
lance between Russia and Frarce)
were .laughable, since both of those
countries stand closer to Germany to-
day than Great Britain to them.
+ Great Britain's interest in no part
of the world, his majesty is said to
have continued, would tally with
those of Russia and France. Besides,
with the uncertain tenure of power on
the part of,English cabinets and the
shifting of party control in England, it
would be foolish to effect binding
entente with that country. This fact
has been repeatedly assigned by the
representatives OF Great Britain for
her not joining the dreibund, and it
was further asserted the reason works
both ways.
The indignation aroused in Germany
by the statement published in the Eng
lish newspapers that the emperor
wrote sort of excuse of his recent
Transvaal attitude to his grandmother,
Queen Victoria, is easily imagined.
The German government newspapers
have fully denied the statement dur
ing the last few days, although it is
not denied that letters passed between
his majesty and the queen. But
court official, who was in daily COM
munication with the emperor, is au-
thority for the assertion that his ma
jesty expressed regret, but not for
having sent his memorable dispatch
to President Kruger; it was for the
manner in which it was received and
commented upon in Great Britain.

WASHINGTON, Jan, 1.-THE cable
report today from Portsmouth, Eng
land, whence the British flying squad
ron is shout to sail, that it's destination
may be the Bermudas, cannot be con-
frmed in any official quarter here.
The British squadron already at and
about the Rermudas consists of sixteen
ships. Should the Portsmouth report
be true it would increase this squadron
to twenty-five ships, or twenty-eight
including thessizs Fpedo-cstchers. II
is doubted that Great Britain would
send such powerful feet into Ameri-
can waters at this time, when their
presence would almost certainly be re-
garded as hostile demonstration, GER
tainly not called for, as long as diplo-
macy has not yet exhausted its resour-
ces in the settlement of the differences
between the United States and Great
Britain.

an exIra session Of the legislature re-
mains anuncertainty. SO far as reliable
information is concerted. Governor
Lord positively refused to record him
self as thinking favorably or unfavor-
ably of issuing call. a. Bush favors

representative from ClackImas county,
was in Salem today and said he would
favor an extra session, if assurance of
concerted action of the members along
retrenchment lines could be secured.
About the only objections heard here
are founded upon distrust in the legis-
lature to re-adjust, upon hard-tines
basis, the expenses of government.
With full assurance that the legisla-
ture would do what lies within its
power toward atfording relief, without
going to extremes, it is safe to say that
large majority of the taxpayers, ex-
