Only al accident can prevent the

MAN OF MYSTERY.

No One Able to Assign Reasons for Krugers
Change of Front.
NEW YORK, Sept. GA dispatch to
the Tribune from London says: The
altered aspect of the Transvaal affair
continues to be mystery too deep to be
probed by anybody ontside of the chief
secretary's room In the colonial office.
President Kruger has suddenly chang
ed his ground. He has been refusing
to grant joint inquiry into the precise
effects of the proposed political changes
but had offered five years franchise
and increased representation under
the condition that the suzerainty
should be abandoned.
He has now withdrawn that offer,
and, revertiug to his original scheme,
has accepted the suggestion for con-
ference of some kind. The facts are in
dispute, but this seems to be close
approach to the truth. Why has
Krguer changed front so suddenly?
That is the difficult question to answer.
His new attitude would be Ineligible
If he had received from Mr.. Chamber
lain in the last week or the week before
a somewhat peremptory intimation
that the patience of the British gov
ernment was exhausted and that it
could not wait any longer, but must
have an answer by the middle of this
week.
Reports respecting the ordering out
of the reserves are again coutridicted
officially today but the situation has
become grave, and almost critical, as is
shown by the presence of Mr.. Cham.
berlain in London and the remarkable
activity prevailing in military circles.
There is no signs in the mining
market that war is close at hand, but
finanoiers are not always we'll informed
in crisis.

He was arraigned for trial and soon
after horsemen surrounded the court
house and threatened to lynch Elder
Wuffin unless he agreed to Withdraw

A meeting Of the Hook and Ladder
company was held last evening for the
purpose of considering the purchase
of hook and ladder truck, of which
the company is sorely in need. 1t was
decided that the best means of raising
funds would be to give ball and the
date for the same was set for Friday,
Sept 10Th.
Mr.. Max Vogt has literally donated
the opera house and as it is beautifully
decorated 1t will prove Just the place
for such party.
The printing offices have also been
very liberal in their donations so that
every thing in this line will be furnised
ed free of charge making the expense
much lighter. In fact very one seems
to be in favor of helping the boys along
and we'll they may, since the cause
to which the money will be appropriat-
ed is ipbeed one which will be
beneficial to every citizen and property
owner of The Dalles.
The best music that the town can
afford and that is indeed good enough,
will be furnished and everything to
tended to. No undesirable characters
will be present and everyone can go
with full assurance that they will en-
Joy themselves to the full extent.

sherman County Farmers Want To Bring
Their Wheat Here.
S. B. Adams has returned from a
trip to Sherman county where he in
terviewed number of farmers in the
vicinity of Moro, who would bring
their wheat here to market provided
there was as good road from the free
bridge to The Dalles as there is from
Moro to the bridge. He conversed
with six wheat raisers who will have
1000 sacks among them, and all
said they could make money by haul
| ing their wheat here by wagon instead
of shipping it over the railroad. Mr..
Adams says the rate from Moro TO
Portland in carload lots is III cents
per hundred pounds and from Moro
to The Dolles LA cents, hence the
| farmers of that section realize that
| they could make money by hauling
| their wheat in wagons here, where
| they can get rate of one dollar ton
| to Portland.
AS TO improving the road from the
free bridge to The Dalles, Mr.. Adams
estimates that it could be put in first
rate condition for 81, 200, and could
be done within month. If this is
true it would not be bad investment
for the city to make to repair the road
| provided it will cause the Sherman
comfy wheat to come here, for with
the wheat will come large quantity
of trade.
