SOUTHERN OREGON GRIMES.
Charles Perry Decoyed, Murdered and
Robbed.

Charles Perry DecOyed, Murdered and
Robbed.
GRANTS Pass, Aug. 3l.-Information
Fred Ferguson, of Del Norte county,
California, that the dead body of Charles
Perry had been found in a well on the
old wagon road between Kerbyville,
Oregon and Crescent City, California.
Perry had been employed at the Brown
Copper Company's smelter at Waldo,
and when the company closed down last
spring to put in more extensive plant,
he was induced by man named Neal
son to go with him to a supposed rich
placer claim, about twenty miles from
Waldo, in the direction of the coast.
Perry, before setting out on the trip,
asked the advice of w. H. Wood, who
was In charge of the smelter, and Wood
advised him not to go, as there were no
placer claims in California or Oregon
that would give so cents to the pan, as
had been represented by Nealson, and
that if man had claim half as rich
he need never work day, and added
Mr.. Wood: "Charley, I am an old
timer in Oregon. Beware of that man."
In spite of Woods advice and warn
ing, Perry left with this man. A few
evenings after their departure, Nealson,
it is claimed, showed up at Payne sta
ton and offered Perry's watch for sale
to the storekeeper, who, luckily for JUS
tice, bought it, and afterward sold it to
a man named Smith, who carried it
to Humbolt county, California.
Mr.. Wood not hearing from his old
smelter hand, reported his suspicious to
Sheriff Ferguson of Del Norte county,
California, and also to the sheriff of
Josephine county, Oregon. The Del
Norte sheriff, Ferguson, hearing about
the sale of the watch, followed up the
clue and located the watch in Humbolt
county. Ferguson then turned his at
tention to the finding of Perry's body,
for although the miner suspected Neal
son, yet there was only evidence of the
watch against him, and to arrest him
might defeat the ends of justice. In the
meantime Nealson went to or near Cres-
cent City to see his wife, from whom he
had been separated. He told her that
his father had died in the Willamette
valley and had left him a small fortune.
He bought furniture and otherwise
fitted mp the house, but never suspected
that the eyes of Fred Ferguson were on
him night and day. Time after time
the sheriff searched for Perry's body
and after five months' perseverance he
was rewarded by finding it yesterday in
an old well some distance from tn,
Payne stage station. Whether Nealsor
has been arrested or not cannot be def
nltely ascertained, but word has reached
here that forty placer miners have takeI
charge of Nealson at Summit, and ther,
is one point certain, that. if any of tn,
old hands from the copper mines ar
there. Nealson, if guilty, will surel,
swing.

Excitement In Hotels.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The scenes in
the corridors of the uptown hotels were
exciting tonight, and the Fifth Avenue,
Hoffman. Imperial and Bartholdi hotels
were thronged with the partisans of
Mckinley and Hobart, and some Bry-
antics ventured within their portals
with the object of betting upon the re-
suit. The Hoffman House lobby, cor
rider and cafe were thronged with
wearers of Bryan badges, who kept UP
a continuous shouting for their favor
lite. At the Imperial, there was mixed
assemblage and at the Bartholdi the
crowd was thoroughly Bryanite.
The betting opened at to 1 that
Bryan would be defeated, but along
towards midnight four and five TO one
were the best that could be had. Col
onel Harry Swords bet 1000 to $500 on
the general result, taking the Mckinley
end; General Powell Clayton bet $1,000
even with a Philadelphia man who
would not give his name that Mckinley
would receive 10000 majority in this
state. There were a number OF other
small bets during the evening in the

With the London Journals.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-British Guiana
newspapers, which reached the state de-
partment today, disagree with the London
press over the Kaituma railway episode
and advocate compliance with the Ven

or the Statu quo Some weeks ago the
colonial legislature passed grant for
a railway up to the Kaituma river into
the disputed territory, with a provision
that survey should be made at once.
and that construction should commence
in January. Venezuela vigorously pro-
tested to the United States against this
breach of faith, Great Britain having
promised to preserve existing conditions
until the whole territorial dispute was
settled. When this affair was published
in dispatches of the United Associated
Presses, London newspapers commented
upon 1t with many disparaging remarks
in regard to the United States and pos
sible Intervention. 1t now appears that
the Demarara papers, which take their
cue from the colonial authorities. are
discussing the matter in quite a differ
colonial legislature at this juncture was
calculated to upset all plans for arrange

possibility of international complication
over a minor issue IS deplored, and the
London newspapers are advised not to
lose their temper. Confidence is ex-
pressed for the forthcoming settlement of
the boundary question, which will give
the colony the projected railway line, and
that no actual work will be attempted on
it until that decision is rendered.

ABOUT SWINDLERS.
THEY WORK A NUMBER OF OGDEN
FIRMS.
Caught at Last, However, They Are
Sent to Jail, but VIII Make n
Stubborn Fight.

OGDEN, Nov. 2.-What appears to have
been a most adroit swindling scheme was
| brought TO light here today, and the two
young manipulators lodged in Jail by
Chief of Police Davenport. Four firms
in the city are known to have been feeced
out of $l2.50 each by the smooth game
The young men are named J. NJ Smith
and n. We'll, and have been stopping at
the Reed.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday Smith
went about town canvasSing for adver-
tisements in book called the United
States Commercial Register for 1861
The four firms victimized had advertise
They were the Eccles Lumber company,
Boyle Furniture company, Ogden Paint,
Oil & Glass company and w II. Wright
& Sons company.
Smith did the canvass:ng and solicited
renewal of their advertisements in the
next years book. Without exception the
firms refused to renew. Smith then asked
that they sign an order for the discon-
tinuance of the advertisement. They did
so, the order being made out on a regu-
lar blank by Smith.
We'll made his appearance on Saturday
with these slips, but they had been
changed into orders for the continuance
of the advertisement, and payment Of
$3.50 for the same. This had been done
most ingeniously. The blank had been
SO printed that when the signer author
lied the. discontinuance of' the matter
the words "dscontinuance of" had been
put at the end. and had evidently been
clipped off. Mayor H. H Spencer was
one of the men buncoed. He signed such
an order as manager of the Eccles Lum-
Der company, and later, when the end of
the order was clipped off. his bookkeeper
paid for the advertisement in cash.
Will Wright of Wright e Sons company
was a much perpleXed man when the or
der was presented to him. He was sure
he had signed an order for the discontin-
nance of the advertisement, but it was

iZing the payment of $3.50 for its inser-
ton Wright finally signed a check, but
the more he thought of it the madden he
got, and finally stopped payment on the
check. The same thing happened in the
case of Manager Bent of the Ogden Paint,
Oil & Glass company, who also issued a
check and then stopped payment Ashby
Stringham of the Boyle Furniture com
pany refused to issue a check and or
dered We'll out. We'll gave receipts when
payment was made.
Will Wright put the case in the hands
of Chief Davenport Monday morning, and
last evening he arrested the men at the
Reed. Not a scrap of paper indicating
their business could be found amongst
their effects, though they claim to be
regularly canvassing for the Commercial
Register Although they are known to
