ONE MAN DEAD, ANOTHER DYING.
Deadly Ailment Due to Treating n
Mule Suffering From Chambers.

Chehalis, Wash, Sept. 81. - The an
nouncement that the death of I. b. Short.
which occurred Sunday, was caused by
equinia or CHAMBERS, and that W. w. Jor-
dan is hourly expected to die of the same
disease, caused CONSERVATION i'll this city
today.
Mr.. Short was a veterinary surgeon.
Jordan is well known here, having been
in the grocery business here for several
years. OF late he has been working at
the farm of j. d. Rice, near here. A mule
on the place was taken sick about two
weeks ago. After Il little, not knowing
what allied the animal, he had Sh> Ut cali
ed to his assistance. Although ,nere was
some thought that the mule was suffer
ing from CHAMBERS, Short did not think
so, and several farmers of experience
with diseases of farm animals agreed with
him. About 10 days ago Short performed
an operation on the mule. Within two
or three days both men were taken down
and the medical men who were called i'll
after several consultations decided there
was no doubt in either case that the
symptoms and course of the disease were
those of CHAMBERS.

MINERS GO TO WORK
Peace Has Been Restored I'm the
Anthracite Regions and the
Strike Is over.

Hazelton, Pa, Sept. 21.-Peace has been
restored in the anthracite region, and
nearly every colliery therein worked to-
way. Included in these were the Lehigh
and Wilkesbarre companies, Audenred
mines, employing $500 men. The strike
was practically inaugurated by them, and
their return to work Saturday caused Il
stampede among the strikers. More than
tWo-thirds of the strikers in the region
are now working.
Ratchford Says It's Over.
Washington. Sept 21.-M. D. Ratchford,
president of the United Mine Workers of
America, who is here to attend a special
meeting of the officers of the Federation
of Labor, gave the following statement
to the Associated press today:
To-day will see about 70, 600 miners re-
sumo work in the bituminous coal fields of
the central states. The strike generally
ends today The mining situation is not
likely to become disturbed again until the
beginning of next year, at which time we
hope to be able to settle the wage differ
ences amcably and without the necessity
of a strike. OF course the victory is not
altogether one of the miners While they
have done the striking, the trades unions
and organized labor bodies have supplied
the necessaries, without which the min
ers could not have possibly succeeded. 1t
Is a victory for organized labor and not
for any particular trade, and we want our
friends who have helped US to feel that
1t is their victory as we'll as ours.

AS REPORTED TO PARIS TEMPS.
United States Declares That the War
Must End by November 1.

Paris, Sept. PA dispatch from San
Sebastian to lie Temps, this city, says
that in his interview yesterday with the
duke of Tetuan, Spanish minister for for
eign affairs, United States Minister
Woodford did mott present his claim for
indemnity, but confined his interview to
a moderate phase in the statement of the
great injuries that commerce and indus
try had suffered in the United States
through the prolongation of the Cuban
war. General Woodford is said to have
added that Secretary Sherman had de-
sired him to declare to the Spanish gov
eminent that it was evidently impossible
for Spain to quell the rebellion i'll a rea-
sonable time, and further, that if the war
ed and of no utility to Spain or the Gu
bans. In conclusion, the United States
minister is reported to have insisted cour-
teously but firmly upon the necessity of
terminating the war; declaring that if it
were not terminated by the end of Octo
Der, the United States would feel justi-
fled in taking measures to secure the in
dependence of Cuba.
A Washington Denial.
Washington, Sept. 20-lt can be stat
ed in reference to the Paris publication
purporting to give the substance of Gen
eral Woodford's communication to the
duke of Tetuan that there has been
misapprehension on the part of the Temps
correspondent upon several points, not
ably in respect to an ultimatum and the
setting of time limit for the conclu-
sion of the war Instead of fixing the end
of October next as the termination of
the war, that particular date was men
toned as the time when the Spanish
court would return to Madrid from San
Sebastian, and when, consequently, it
might be in order to return an answer to
the latest representations of the United
States government through Mr.. Wood
ford. 1t is declared at the state depart
ment that while Mr.. Woodford did, ac-
cording to the original idea of his in
structions, set out the deep interest the
United States had in witnessing ces-
sation of the deplorable conflict in Cuba
he did not deliver himself of an ultima
tum, but simply made statement of our
deep interest in the settlement of the
Cuban war as a reasonable explanation
for intervening in any manner at this
time.

row morning. Some go on foot, some on
horseback, and some go in wagons,
which can be taken as far as Loops
ranch on the North fork, about 10 miles
from the new finds. Even bicycles are
pressed into service, and they can really
be used to good advantage for large
part of the distance. Stores handling
pack saddles sold out all they had this
afternoon. The route generally taken is
from here to Hollingsworth, Is miles, over
fine plank road, and thence up the
North fork by fairly good country road
via Reese and Hardiary 10 the point
where the state road to Hannigan pass
begins, which is followed to point
about four miles from the summit where
the trail DIVORCES from Ruth creek to the
new discoveries, across the divide on
what is now known as Selicia creek.

n Statement


The following facts as the result of

| 500 each. 500 600
On hand (cancelIed) 9S
bonds of denomination of
$500 zach. $4,000
Amount paid off, $4,000.
Original Issue. 100000.
Amount outstanding II. II.
Bond Debt S3l 600
Six Of tho above mentioned 0S
bonds were retired on February 18th
1897.
This is tho status ut present. Ar
rangcments have been made to retire
four (G more bonds or $4,000 worth
which will be done as soon as the
holders send them in. This will
leave outstanding $4,000.
In consideration of interest paid in
advance the holders Of those out
standing have agreed to carry them
over, and the interest on them have
therefore been paid till January lst,
1898.
The retirement of the 10 bonds
mentioned above with the payment of
back interest on the full amount out
standing January 1st, 1897 (S34, ,OO0)
together with the payment of future
interest on $4,000 has been effected
without drafting upon any fund on
hand for tho expenses of the present
fiscal year.
1t is estimated that at the present
levy, unless large unexpected expenses
ior internal improvements arise, the
outstanding $4,000 of Railroad
Bonds can be retired in the course Of
ofcabout three years.
