BODIES NOT YET FOUND.

Umpqua River Still Holds on to Its
Dead.
PORTLAND, May 15.-W. w. Nc.
CURE, brother of the late Hollister D..
Mcguire, returned Saturday from the
Umpqua, where be has been for a
month. searching for the bodies of his
brother and A. F. Reed.
While he has found little to encour.
age him, Mr.. MCGUIRE says the search
will be continued until the last ray of
hope has vanished.
In addition to the boat and the coats
of the two men, which were found q
few days after the drowning, two MEM
orandum books have been found. One
had belonged to Mr.. MCGUIRE and the
other to Mr.. Reed. These were not
found for two or three weeks after the
coats were found.
The emorandum of Mr.. Reed
showed signs of having rubbed on the
rocks, one corner of it being worn
away. 1t was found four miles below
where the drowning occurred, and
from the place where it was lodged it
is evident that it foated down 10 or IL
days after the drowing. The river
was something like Two feet lower at
the time the book lodged, which bears
out this theory, as it had fallen about
two feet in 10 days.

Russia Demands Concession

PEKING, May J5.-The Russian de-
mand for q new railroad concession
connecting Peking with Russia's pres
ent railroad system in Manchuria, is
still exciting the gravest anxiety
here. Germans and Japanese are
particularly uneasy on the subject of
the unexpected imove on the part of
Russia, and it is said there is feeling
among the prominent Chinese that
the moment has come to make every
effort in the direction of securing
British sympathy and aid.

THE TERMS OF PEACE.

1t Must Be Unconditional Surrender or
Nothing,
New YORK, May ia special to
the Herald from Washington says:
A satisfa ctory conclusion is expected
by the administration of affairs from
the'conference which will be held by
the American Philippine commission
with the commission which Aguinaldo
proposes to send to Manila.
In his dispatch to the war depart
ment today, General Otis announced
that Aguinaldo had sent messenger to
him expressing wish to send COM
mission to ARRANGE terms of peace. ,"
The administration officials express
the opinion that this commission
will submit to President Schurman
and his associates the answer of Agui-
naldo to the propositions made by the
American commission to Colonel Ar.
guelles, Aguinaldo's emissary. regard
ing the character of government which
would be given to the Filipinos, and

factory.
1t is probably apparent to the Fill
pinos that there is nothing to be
gained by conducting negotiations for
the purpose of obtaining temporary
cessation of host1lities. General Otis
will not grant an armistice, and he has
shown that he does not propose to stop
fighting, no matter how many peace
emissaries Aguinaldo may send to
Manila, unless they agree to uncon-
ditionally surrender. In his dispatch
General Otis shows, despite the fact
that Aguinaldo states his purpose to
send commission to arrange peace,
that he is making preparations to con-
tinue military operations.

NO EASY JOB.
Caring for Prisoners at wardner Serious
|. Task for Idaho.

Task for Idaho.
WARDNER, Idaho, May Hoover
nor Steunenberg himself arrived on
the ground yesterday to look personal
ly over the situation. His first care
was to see to the comfort of the pris-
oners now in custody here. Together
with General Merriam and Bartlett
Sinclair he spent some time discussing
the means for providing the captiYes
with every reasonable accommodation.
The completion of the new guard
house, which will be done early next
week. will make that task more easy
one. 1t will then be possible to re-
move the men from Mullan and Gem
out of the box cars where they have
been under guard for the past week
and will. also permit suitable accom-
modations for the men now kept in
the barn.
The matter of feeding the prisoners
is not so serious an item as the ques-
tion of bedding. The new bunk house
will be provided with hunks for the
inmates, but it will take vast guam
tity of blankets and quilts to care for.
the 500 occupants. By this time
good part of the prisoners have been
supplied by friends with bedding, but
still many OF the less fortunate ones
are obliged to hustle at night in order
to keep warm, and it was no joke
sleeping without blankets these cold
nights in the upper attitudes of north
ern Idaho. In the past the state has
not been in position to furnish bedding
while General Merriam commanding
the federal troops, has no care of the
prisoners other than to guard them
and has not been qualified to furnish
supplies for the states captives.
WOOLGROWERs WILL SELL.
Will Not Hold This Years Clip for High
Prices.
PENDLEToN, Or. May 14.-IL is the
belief here that the wool market will
open up in a couple of weeks, and that
the clip of this year will move off at
at the prevailing prices. The growers
are not inclined to repeat the error of
last year and hold their wool for higher
figures,
E. Y. Judd, of the Eastern house of
b. c. Judd & Root,o Hartford, Conn.,,
and who is the heaviest holder of
stock.in the Pendleton Wool Scour.
ing & Packing Company and in the
Pendleton Woolen Mill Company, has
arrived here for the summer. Regard
ing the situation, he said:
SIT cannot be denied that the condi-
tions just now are by no means ideal,
and that they do not warrant the hope
that the woolgrower will receive as
much for his wool as he could have OBJ
tanned last year, and that was obtained
by those who let their clips 60. Never
theless, there is every reason to expect
improvement, and that before long
this improy ement will have brought
its effect here in Eastern Oregon.
1T is now not denied that the WOOL
growers here lost from to cents
pound for ali the wool they held, and
this has been lesson to them. 1t is
also true that all the big houses that
bought any wool last year lost money,
and some of them lost very heavily. In
fact, they lost exactly in proportion to
the amount of wool they succeeded in
inducing the grower to part with. and
had they induced the sale of any more
their losses would have been by just
that much greater"

The science Of osteopathy was discovered
by DR.. A. T. Still of Kirksvllle. Mo. DR..
Still reasoned that a natural flow of blood
is health; and disease is the effect Of local or
general disturbance of the blood; that to
excite nerves causes muscles to contract and
compress venous flow of blood to the heart,
and the bones could be used as levers to
relieve pressure on nerves, veins and ar
terles.
A slight strain or a sudden jolting may
easily cause a displacement Of bone, muscle,
tendon or organ, and a consequent pressure
on the nerves, thus breaking the nerve wave
between the brain and the part injured.
and we then may have as a result any of
the numerous ailments caused from lack
of nerve supply to parts. Seldom is there
a permanent cure until the machinery is
righted. Hence we treat headache (all

John Montgomery, who claims to be 10Y
years of age and who was recently placed
In st. Bernard's hospital as a county charge,
was yesterday declared by the Board of
Commissioners OF Insanity to be of I'M
sound mind. He will not, however, be re-
moved from st. Bernard's, but will be trans
ferred from the ward where the county
charges are kept to the insane department.
The information charging Montgomery
with being insane was filed by Deputy City
Marshal Stockdale. Friday afternoon Mont
gomery left the hospital without leave and
made a social call at a tailor shop on Broad
way. where he pocketed a large dirk knife.
Fearing that the old man intended to do
himself some injury, the police were noti-
fed. In the meantime Montgomery re-
turned to the hospital and when Officer
Stockdalc arrived there he denied having the
knife. IT was found, however, concealed in
the drawer of a commode. Montgomery,
despite his extreme age, gave the officer
quite a tussle before he was able to get
possession of the knife. AS a county charge
Montgomery's care at the hospital cost the
county s. a month, now as an insane pa
tient it will cost s1i per month.
John Sastrow, a farmer living near I'm

sane. She will be brought in for examina-

in the Hughes murder trial was practically
all in and adjournment was taken until
Monday to give the attorneys an oppor-
tunity to digest the testimony before the
defense would be offered. Four experts in
symptoms OF disease have testified that the
symptoms present at the death of Ed
Hughes were those of strychnine. There
has been a little divergence between them
as to the number OF symptoms necessary
on which to base a positive opinion. One
held that strychnine symptoms were so
marked that they alone would be sufficient
evidence. another that symptoms, together
with finding s%trychnine in the stomach.

The state has negatively proven that
Hughes did not die of heart disease and did
die from strychnine. The defense must
either be suicide or accidental, or malicious
