Ousted Board Victorious.

San Francisco, Oct. Slate this
afternoon, the supreme court rendered
it's decision in the tax levy case which
involved the question as to which of
the levies, respectively adopted by the
members of the ousted board Of super
visors and the new board of supervis-
ors, jointly approved by Governor Budd
and Mayor Phelan, should be accepted
by the auditor, ordering that the writ
Of mandate applied for by Supervisor
Morton to compel the auditor to recog-
nize that adopted by the ousted board,
be granted.
This decision is generally accepted as
paramount to the reinstatement of the
old board of supervisors, pending it's
appeal from the decision of Judge Wal
lace ousting it's embers from office for
malfeasance in failing to fix water rates
within the time specified by law.
The decision was written by Henshaw
and signed by all the justices except
Garroutte, who filed separate concuri-
ing opinion, making the court unani-
NOUS on the main issue, differing only
in the manner of expressing his views.

New York, Oct. "A dispatch from
Montreal says: Application will be
made to the Dominion parliament next
session for bill to incorporate COM
pany for the purpose of constructing
and operating railway from point

Tortured by Thibetans.

Bombay, Oct. 5.-Henry Savage
Lander, a well-known artist, traveller
and writer, and the grandson OF the
celebrated Walter Savage Lander, has
just returned from India, after ter
rible experience. He had undertaken
an exploring tour in Thibet. but he was
abandoned by all the members OF his
company, except two coolies. Finally.
the Thibetans arrested him by an act OF
treachery, sentenced him to death. and,
after torturing him with hot irons, ac-
tually carried him to the execution
grounds. At almost the last minute,
the execution was stopped by the grand
lama, who committed the sentence to
torture by the ''stre sching-log,' spe-
cies of rack which greatly injured
Mr.. Landor's spine and limbs. After
being chained for eight days, he was
released. Mr.. Lander has no fewer

Peru Adopts the Gold Standard.

New York, Oct. S.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Lima, Peru, says:
After discussion which continued for
several days, the chamber of deputies
of Peru adopted the gold standard by
majority of one vote. The plan for
gold standard was sent to the chamber
some time ago, after it had been APP
proved by the president and cabinet.
The cabinet believed this was the only
possible solution to the financial
troubles which beset Peru on every
side. There was a long fight over the
question in the chamber, the govern
ment supporters arraying themselves
unanimously in favor of the gold stand
ard. The narrow margin of their vic
tory shows how persistently the ques-
ton was contested.

Stay Will Be Short.

Berlin. Oct. S.-The German govern
ment has refused to recognize Mr..
Ferdinand Neumann, of Illinois, who
was nominated by President Mckinley
as United States consul at Cologne.
The state department, it is said,
never has received officially any charges
against the appointee, though certain
allegations were current that, if sup
ported, would have made his selection
properly Objectionable to the German
government. Some of these are con-
nected with the worlds fair, and a GER
tain concert enterprise in which Neu-
mann is said to have been interested,
which resulted disastrously to some
German artists. The action of the
German government is final, as it is a
well-recognized right of nation to
withhold an exequator at its pleasure.

SAGASTA'S POLICY.
Immediate Recall Of Wey1er and the
Granting of PGomised Reforms.

Immediate Recall Of Weyler and the
Granting of Promised Reforms.
New York, Oct. "a dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
The World correspondent called to-
day on Premier Sagasta, who said, in
response to inquiries: "You ask me if
the liberal party would assent to medi-
alton by the United States, with a view
to fastening the pacifcation Of Cuba
and inducing the rebels in arms and
the exiles to accept autonomy. Why
should we need mediation, when our
intentions-long and often expressed
by the liberal praty-aim at realizing
all that America could suggest?
ono Spanish party, certainly not the
liberals, could assent to foreign inter-
ference in our domestic affairs, or with
our colonies. No government could
hope to induce the nation to accept
such interference. If America, as we
firmly believe and hope, is disposed to
be friendly with US, let her observe the
rules of international law, and stop the
flow of mortal and material aid, with
out which the insurgents could not last
five months.
"We shall reverse the policy in
Cuba, beginning, naturally, with the
recall of Weyler. I informed the
queen yesterday that the liberal party
would accept the responsibility of Office
most willingly if her majesty honored
the party with her confidence; that the
liberal party had plans for all pending
questions of the day in Spain, and GER
tainly would grant to Cuba autonomy
along the lines traced in the program
of the Cuban autonomists themselves.
I said so in my manifesto in June, and
/ have repeated the same promise dur
ing the government holidays. The lib
eral party is prepared to grant to Cuba
all possible government, broad tariff
and every concession compatible with
the infexible defense of Spain's rule
and sovereignty in the West Indies
We believe this will satisfy the major
ity of Cubans and we will act thus
spontaneously"

A Change for the Worse.

New Orleans. Oct. AFTER two days
of improvement and promise, the fever
situation, on the face of the record, took
somewhat of a turn today. For 40
hours there had been no deaths, and
yesterday the number of cases had
shown a material falling off from the
day before. Early this morning, how
ever, the reports of new cases began to
come in to the board of health Office
with considerable rapidity. By
o'clock there had been 16 cases report
ed, and by Z O'Clock tonight all previous
records of this season had been broken,
go far as new cases. were concerned.
In few hours three deaths had also
been reported to the board. The ply
sicians were not at loss to explain the
increase in cases. They took the view
that it might be expected that numer-
Gus cases would still continue daily to
be reported. DIR. OIiphant said to-
night:
''The stern enforcement of the law
requiring all physicians to report
promptly both suspicious and actual
cases of yellow fever, has material
effect in increasing the number OF
cases."

at Salem Fair Grounds.
Salem, Or, Oct. 8.-Chehalis TODAY
lowered the worlds record 3L seconds
For the two-mile pace at the state fair
track, in the presence of 10, 900 people.
Chehalis, driven by his owner, Frank
Frazier, appeared on the track with his
full brother Del Norte, who has a record
OF 2:08. Both horses were loudly
cheered. After scoring through the
stretch few times Del Norte with
drew. After scoring once, Frazier an
nounced that he was ready to start, and
hundreds OF wathces were held in readi-
ness to record his attempt to make a
worlds record.
Like flash the black stallion was
down to the wire, and, almost before
the spectators could realize it, was on
his way, moving easily and proudly.
At the three-quarter pole the runner.
Bonbonniere, ridden by Galbraith,
jumped in, but the Oregon PAGER
needed no prompter. He reeled off the

Too fast; he'll never make it." was
on many tongues as the first mile was
finished. But his well-wishers breathed
easier when 3:14 was called at the mile
and a half.
Thirty-one seconds more saw him at
the mile and three-quarters, and in the
face OF strong southwestern wind,
he strobe home gamely, creating fresh
record by passing under the wire in
4:l94.
When the time was announced, amid
prolonged cheers, Chehalis was crowned
with wreaths of flowers, and led off the
track, looking but little worse for his
world-beating two-mile pace.

Will and Will Not Do.

Will and Will Not Do.
New York, Oct. 5.-The Herald
prints a number of interviews with
leading Cubans here on the situation in
the island.
Estrada Palma. representative OF
the Cuban provisional government,
said:
1.-THE Cubans are more firmly deter.
mined than ever to push the fight until
absolute independence of Cuba is &C.
knowledged. / believe the Cubans are
willing to pay a reasonable indemnity
to Spain, provided she withdraw her
troops from Cuba before the island is
totally ruined"
Enrique Devarona said: 'The only
practical solution of the Cuban problem
is absolute independence.
Colonel F. Lopez de Queralta. for.
merly of the United States army, and
a veteran of the 10 years war in Cuba,
said:
ITO avoid further shedding of blood
of innocent people l would, although
painfully, sign and give my consent to
a compensation to Spain for the sake
of getting rid of the Spanish.
E. Trujillo, editor of Ell Porvena,
said: "Cubans are fighting for abso-
lutte independence, and will accept no
other solution"
Regarding the proposition for the
purchase of Cuba from Spain, General
Emilio Nunez, who has been in consul
tation with the junta leaders in New
York, said:
81 cannot see how the plans for the
freedom of Cuba on the basis of guar
antee by the United States of an in
demnity of 5000, 900. 900 in cash can be
displeasing to any of the parties, except
that the amount is greatly in excess of
the true value of the relics left by Wey-
Ter. The United States could afford to
back up the proposition, because it
would have the revenue Of Cuba to
guarantee reimbursement, and would
gain immediate Improvements in it's
trade relations.

SUNK OFF THE RIVER.
Schooner Orion Cut Down by the ship
Peru.


Astoria, Oct. 6.--Shortly after 4
O'Clock this afternoon, just as she was
completing one of the fastest trans
Pacific sailing trips on record, the big
four.masted German ship Peru crashed
into the little coasting schooner Orion,
cutting her in two, and sending her to
the bottom Immediately.
When the little vessel was struck by
the big steel ship, the captain was
thrown across the deck, badly bruised,
and every one of his four men were
knocked about and more or less seri-
ously injured. They succeeded in gra sp-
ing ropes of the German bark, and
climbed aboard, and thus made their
escape. Captain Nelson was loath to
say who he thought was to blame for
the collision. He AYERS that his
schooner was on her course for Shoal-
water bay. The weather was perfectly
clear and the sea smooth The acct
dent occurred north of the lightship,
some IL or Is miles off the mouth of
the river.
The tug Relief was towing the Ger
man bark, and the captain declined to
make statement. The captain of the
schooner laid his case before the Brit
ish vice consul here tonight, and the
matter will be thoroughly investigated.
The shipwrecked crew are now at a
hotel in Astoria, without cent of
money or clothes other than what was
on their backs at the time of the COLI.
sion.
The Orion was en- route from San
Francisco for Willappa harbor in bal
last, and at the time of the accident
was on the starboard tack, steering by
the wind. While the reticence of the
men in charge of the vessel makes it
difficult to get at the exact cause of the
disaster, it is apparent from what little
information they volunteer that there
was miscalculation as to the speed Of
the vessels. which prevented their hav-
ing sea room until it was too late to
avoid collision.
The Peru being heavy steel ship
could not be much damaged by the en-
counter with the smaller wooden ves-
sci, but she came out of the collision
with her jibboon and bowsprit cap
missing. The Peru was on her way to
Portland. The Orion was a small
three-masted schooner, of III tons reg
lister.
The Peru is a steel ship of 2,093
tons net register, 275 feet long, 1915
feet beam, 49, feet hold.
