To Promote the Flax Industry.

Governor and Mrs W. p. Lord, ac-
companied by Mrs. o. N. Denny Of
Portland, left this morning for the
metropolis where they will attend
the exposition. The ladies took with
them a model Of their flaxretting-
tank and several samples Of fax and
woven work. Owing to the hostility
Of the Salem public toward the Flax
Fiber Association that organization
has deemed it best to move their
plant from this city. The new site
has not been decided upon yet, but
Portland, Corvallis, MoMinnVille and
several other towns are bidding for
the plant. II Is too bad that Salem's
lack of interest and discouraging at

He said deceased was waiting on a
young lady at that place, and was a
frequent visitor In the town while he
was there.
The deceased was at the time negot.
iating for the purchase Of a LIVERY
business 10 Silverton. He further
stated that he was a passenger with
him from The Dalles to Portland.
About two weeks ago man by the
name Of Sink from Wasco county was
In Salem searching for his brother,
Ray Sink. Sink was german and
belongs TO well to do family in East
ern Oregon. He traced his brother to
Silyerton, where he was paying at
tention to young lady OF that place,
and then back to Salem again when
he lost trace Of him.
by taking into consideration the
stories OF the razorman and the search
OF Sink for his brother, together with
the fact that the murdered man had
ticket from Eastern Oregon on his
person when found and also the opin>
ion Of many persons that the deceased
was Of German descent, it would ap-
pear that the mans identity has
been established.
The date of the murder is concluded
tohave been between the 9th and 18th
OF September. Plaster shayed him
on Friday the 9th and from the ap-
pearance Of the mans face he was
killed within day or two, as his face
is perfectly smooth,
e, Moore says he knew Sink, and
built house for him on his farm
three miles north west of Wasco. The
Cwo Sink brothers and their father
own about 1000 acres of land in Sher-
man county. Moore thinks he was
about 40 years OF age, and Is consid-
cred 'little of" at times.
The theory that robbery was the
motive OF the crime finds some sub
sanitation 10 the fact that the hotel
keeper at Silyerton, where the MUIR
dered man stopped stated that the
man seemed to have a good deal OF
money as a big roll OF greenbacks was
seen in his possession. This taken
with the fact that his pockets were
turned wrong side out and no money
was found on his person would .lead
)ne to believe he had been robbed.
Sheriff Durbin and his deputies are
close on track Of all information. Mr..
Durbin is 10 SilYerton, and will no
loubt bring some light on the subject, ::
Prosecuting Attorcey Hayden is also
ooking into the case closely.

BATH, AND \ FEAST ON THE
GOVERNMENT GROUNDS.
Visitors are Being Given a Good Time
Statutes the Colors-How Every
body Fared

About 0 o'clock this morning all
the new troops were given shore
leave. The Pennsylvanians came on
shore almost independently and went
and did pretty much as they pleased.
They went aboard at II o'clock to
prepare for the reception of the Hon
olulu people on the grounds of the
Executive Building. Many of them
marched out to Waikiki and took a
swim. The Nebraska men went ,al-
most directly to the beach in body
There was funny little thing in
connection with the Waikiki march
of the regulars on the new transports.
They were in charge of a local man.
who perhaps, turned out to be a Sa-
marian, for in place of taking the
regulars on the long, hot march to
Waikiki he steered them to the boat
houses at Kakaako. There they had
a fine plunge. enjoyed it hugely and
returned in fine spirits. Being COM
paratively small number of men they
were accommodated in the best way
at the boat houses.
\ very pretty thing in connection
with the march of the Nebraska and
Pennsylvania troops through town
was their salutes to the American col
ors. In passing under a flag the COM
panies would take off their hats and
march by uncovered. They took spe-
cial notice of the big flag over the
street opposite the Bank of Hawaii,
and the flag and shield over the street
in front of the G.. \. r. headquarters.
The latter was cheered by the troops
as they passed along. The sidewalks,
doors and upstairs windows were all
thronged with people. When the sa-
Lutte to the flag was recognized by the
spectators a burst of applause came
| from them.
An effort was made by the commit
tee of One Hundred this morning to
charter a steamer to bring the sol
diers from the China ashore. 1t turn
ed out, most unfortunately too. that
there were no vessels in port that
could be used for the purpose, so
many of them being away among the
Islands. Most of the Colorado men
took the situation in their own hands,
however, and came ashore in small
boats. Nearly all of them are at the
feast this afternoon, which is great
satisfaction to the committee.
The feast on the grounds began al
1 o'clock this afternoon. IL is being
carried out on the lines of the recep-
tion of yesterday. There are about
1000 men on the grounds, besides To-
cal military functioparies and mem
bers of the committees.
Nearly all of the troops have orders
to go aboard ship at 5 o'clock this af-
ternoon. They will be given shore
leave tonight to ''see the town." Gen
eral Greene has decided to leave ear
ly tomorrow morning with all the
transports for Manila. It is an under
stood thing. however, that the ships
will not sail until the mail by the Bel
| gic has been distributed.

Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Nor
gan City, belonging to the lnternl-
tional Steam Navigation Company,
the company that owns the liners

zona and Tacoma, belonging to the
Northern Pacific Railroad, and ne
British steamer Argyll which was in
Honolulu not long ago, and which the
United States government bought
outright.
Tie Indiana and Ohio can carry

Olympia, Arizona and Tacoma about
500 each the Aameda 600 to 700. and

Captain Charles King is known by his

PROMPT COALING-

The coaling of the transports shat
ters the record for similar work any
where. Within fifteen minutes after
the China was at the wharf, Consul
General Haywood had coal on the way
to her bunkers. She took on 400 tons
OF coal before o'clock this morning.
Then she pulled into the stream and
the Colon and Senator took their pla-
ces at the wharf where coal was al
ready waiting for them. The Zealan-
dia when she got to her wharf found
300 tons of coal waiting for her.

ZEALANDIA'S COMFORT,
Is Admirably Fitted Up as a Troop
Ship.


The Zealandia at the Oceanic wharf
would look natural if it were not
for the soldiers on deck and the
guards on the wharf. She has been
admirably fitted up for a transport,
and the men who came down on her
speak highly of the comfort she af-
fords and the excellent attention they
received from the ships company.
The Zealandia could have been in
port very few hours after the Chi
ma if the speed of the Colon had ad-
mitted of her going at full speed.
When the Zealandia sighted the Pc
ru, by order of the military comman-
der aboard, boat was lowered and
took mail matter to the Peru.
The Zealandia broke her steam stec-
ring apparatus soon after leaving San
Francisco, but complete repairs were
speedily made. She had no sickness
aboard except sea sickness. and Cap
tain Dowdell speaks highly of the
boys he brought.
