hands are large and he is compact
powerfully built man of about thirty.
Sheriff Durbin ha1 him securely hand
cuffed and turned him over to first
deputy Frank Derby, who very coolly
ordered him TO walk 10 the cab about
four feet ahead of him.
Sheriff Durbin received many COM
pliments on getting the first man
charged with murder under his ad-
minlstratlon. 1t is job worthy of a
great expert criminal detective TO
land such a fellow with expedition as
has been done in this case, and IL
looks as IL he we're the right man.
AT THE JAIL.
AS Sheriff Durbin and Deputy
Derby drove up to the court house
with their man there we're several
hundred eager people waiting to get
glimpse OF the victim and among
them not few anxious women. AS
the hack suddenly stopped at the
south basement door hush fell over
the crowd, and Sheriff Durbin. brought
out his man, All seemed surprised 1t
his good looks. He apparently tried
10 be brave, but he was quite pale and
his lip had nervous qulver. A prom !.
inelt man present who knew him,
remarked: THAT man is generally as
game as fighting cock, but he looks
scared this time" He was placed in
one Of the front cells In plain sight Of
the corridor and the officers went into
conference as to what steps we're
next necessary.
QUICK WORK DONE,
From finding the body Tuesday to
to the arrest Friday, there has been
quick work done.
Ray Sink had 24.pound weights att
tached to him. The commotion
caused by the steamer towing the
dredge undoubtedly raised the body

gases formed from the decomposlng
contents of the stomach. III the body

on Mayors, as he was with Sink too
much to be acquitted OF all completely
with his death. 1t would be a pity il
the perpetrator Of such foul crime
should escape.
1T WAS HUMAN BLOOD.
DR.. w. A. Cusick has about COM

Tho Hon Market.

SALEM, Sept 24.-There is no let
ting up In the tension on the hop
situation in Oregon. Under the pres
ent stress OF advancing prices not
many sales Of the choicest grades
will be made.
Sales are reported Friday at l3ic,
a half cent better than our last report.
A sale OF one of the very choicest
lots in Oregon is reported from Dal-
las at fifteen cents. 1t Is not believed
that any figure will be quoted beyond
that for some time to come.
