VERDICT FOR PLAINTIFF.
A Suit Involving the Legality Of
Ticket Scalping.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. S--The DAM
age sui. instituted by Peter D. Peter
son against Il. Il. O'Connor, General
Ticket Agent of the Oregon Railway
and Navigation Company in this city.
resulted in verdict in favor of plain
tiff in the sum of S400 and costs.
The verdict is of Importance to trans
portation companies. as it involves the
legality of ticket scalping.
The facts of the case are as follows:
In return for certain advertisements
the o. r. e n. Co. issued to c. L.
Church, a ticket for transportation.
Church disposed of it TO Ottinger's
ticket agency in this city, where it was
bought by Peterson. Thereupon Peter
son signed the name of Church TO the
ticket but when it was presented to
the o. r. & n. Co. he was arrested for
forgery. After long trial Peterson
was acquitted, the court holding that
when Church disposed of his ticket he
also disposed of his right TO sign his
name thereto. Hence, Peterson was
guilty of no forgery. Peterson then
sued for damages TO the amount of
$4,000 for false Imprisonment.

TRADING COMPANIES LIBELED.
A Suit Which Brings Out a Tale of
Dangers in Going to KIondike.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. San inter-
esting tale of the tribulations and dan
gers to which emigrants to the Klondike
expose themselves is told in a libel
against the British steamer Bristol, filed
to-day in the United States District
Court by the Portland and Alaska
Trading and Transportation Company
of Portland.
The libellant alleges that it chartered
the Bristol for the purpose of transport
ing passengers to Dawson City from Sc
attic, it being stipulated that she was to
convey, and in case of need to tow, the
libellant's steamer Eugene. After sew
eral delays a start was eventually made.
but the Bristol, in violation of the
charter party, refused to permit each
passenger to carry one ton of baggage,
and then, instead of steaming through
the safer or inner channel, chose the
outside" route, regardless of the safety
of the Eugene.
1t is alleged that the Bristol put out
to open sea in the teeth of a storm, 10
the distress of the Eugene and her crew
and passengers. So grievously was the
Eugene tossed and strained that she had
to hoist signals of distress, and to seek
Vancouver Island.
1t being found that the Eugene was
unseaworthy, the Captain of the Bristol
refused to offer his ship to rescue the
passengers, unless they would sign a
release of any cause of action which they
might have acquired against the Bristol.
After an alteration lasting several
days, the passengers surrendered, and
signed the release. He then demanded
4 release from Z. B. Mcfarland, Gen
eral Manager of the company. who per-
sonally conducted the expedition. Nc
Farland declined to accede, but the pas
sengerS who had been thwarted and so
long detained were in no mood TO par
ley.
Indignation meetings We're held, and
the passengers decided to lynch Nc
Farland, unless he signed the required
release. He was helped to determina-
ton by a committee of passengers, who
presented guns at his breast and fired
pistols within an inch OF his ears. Under
the circumstances Mcfarland chose the
better part Of valor and signed. He now
alleges duress and lack Of consideration
to avoid the release.
In consideration Of all these. the libel
ant prays for SD 900 as compensation
for the damage suffered.

The Winenakers' Corporation
Making a Strong Effort to Pre-
vent a Further Cut in the Price
of Wine-Meeting to be Held
for the Purpose of Enlisting
Support of the Viticulturists.

OREGON CITY, Feb. S.-A small boat
containing five men was carried over the
falls Of the Willamette River here this
morning, and four of the men We're
drowned.
The dead: George Freeman, ST.,
George Freeman, Jr., James Freeman,
L. J. Shannon.
The remaining man, Henry Freeman,
chung to the boat and escaped.
For years George Freeman and his
sons have worked at the paper mills on
the west side of the river The trip TO
and from their daily labor has been
made by boat from the village of Cane
nah, on the east side.
The Freeman boys and Shannon were
thoroughly acquainted with the river,
but te fog this morning deceived them.
Shortly before s o'clock the five men
met as usual at their embarking point
above the falls. Freeman. ST., was at
the oars. He rowed along the usual
course, and headed for the west bank of
the river The river is now very high,
and the current carried the boat further
down stream than they suspected. In
the dense fog it was not possible to To-
cate familiar signs, and the men had no
warning but the roaring falls.
Suddenly the boat gave a wild lurch
as the main torrent struck it, In the
same instant the men discovered that
the powerful current was carrying them
down at a velocity that increased every
second. Additional hands We're put to
the oars, and an attempt was made to
pull out of the swirling rushing stream.
But it was too late. 1t was but a mo-
ment later that the boat plunged into
the churning waves of the upper falls.
The boat was caught and whirled
around. Every oar was torn from the
rcwers' hands, and then the craft shot
ahead straight to the middle current, to
the yawning gulf below.
George and Harry Freeman held fast
to the boat, but the other three were
swept off, and We're never seen again.
Harry Freeman attempted to right the
boat, and his brother George, losing his
hold, fell off and was drowned dozen
yards from the shore
None of the bodies have been re-
covered.

TRIAL OF MARTIN AND DEPUTIES.
JUDGE RECEIVES A THREATEN
ING LETTER.
Brands the Man Who Wrote It as q
Scoundre1 and a Coward-Tes-
timony Of Witnesses.

WILKESBARRE Pa), Feb S.-Be-
fore the trial of Sheriff Martin and his
deputies was resumed to-day Judge
Woodward stated he had received an
anonymous letter stating that if he did
not do certain things, something would
happen, and a threat was made.
The Judge said: THE man who wrote
this will probably hear what / have to
scoundrel and coward, and that no
such dishonorable means will in any
way affect my judgment"
Judge Woodward ruled out certain
evidence given yesterday by John Cos
tello, q witness for the prosecution, and
which had been objected to by the de-
Tense. During the course of Costello S
testimony he had said to Deputy Hess,
referring to the shooting of the strikers:
This is a nice thing you have done.
Costello said he replied angrily: Shut
up, or I'll treat you the same way" at
the same time leyeling his rifle at Cos
telio's head.
Costello was then recalled, and asked
TO go OH and tell what ne saw on the
road from Farlay's Hotel to Latimer.
He said he had seen eight wounded men
lying along the road, and three dead
ruen. He stated that he did what he
could for the wounded, and that he had
found no weapons on any of them.
j. j. Jones, Chief of Police of West
Hazelton, testified that the strikers
reached West Hazelton on the afternoon
of the shooting, and there met the Sher-
if and deputies. They carried a flag
and talked rather loud, but they had no
arms and made no disturbance The
Sheriff told them that they could not
march to Latimer and that they must
go home, whereupon he (Jones) induced
them to go back and showed them how
they could march by a side street
John Lynch, the next witness, testified
that he was at West Hazelton when the
strikers arrived, and that they We're I'M
armed and orderly. The Sheriff told
some of the strikers they had better get
out of the way, as there was liable TO be
trouble if they did not dispense.
The witness testified that Deputy
Manley struck him with gun as he was
moving off the street, and another man
had also been struck. One deputy
pointed his gun at a striker and said
Il could get bead on that fellow
Deputy Ferrow told a man who was
simply with a striker whose head was
bleeding, that if he did not shut UP he
would blow his head off.
Witness denied, on cross-examination
that he had a black jack and tried to
hit with it.
Herman Hottinger of Hazelton said
that while he was at West Hazelton on
the day of the shooting Deputy Diehl
threatened to blow my brains out if
did not get off the road"
Another deputy said: II bet 1 drop
SIX of them when I get over
The cross-examination failed to shake
Hottinger's story.

Reductions in Prices.

ST. HELENA, Feb. S.-The Wine-
makers Corporation. controlling H.,
100000 gallons of wine, is making q

eral support of the viticulturists. and
to bring them into sympathy with the
