EXECUTION OF BRANTON.
Hanged at Eugene for the Murder OF
John Linn.

Hanged at Eugene for the Murder of
John Linn.
Eugene. May 15.-Claude Branton
was hanged today tol the murder of
John Linn.
Branton retired last night at IL
O'Clock, after writing several letters.
He slept well, and got up at the usual
time this morning, but would not eat
breakfast. Reverends Patterson and
Handsaker, OF the Christian church,
were admitted to the Jail at z this
morning, and remained to the end,
praying and singing with the con-
demned.
At $3.50 his people were admitted to
the Jail door, and conversed with him
a few moments. Sheriff Withers then
read the warrant.
Branton left the cell at 10:45 under
the charge of the sheriff and two
deputies. He walked upon the scaffold
unassisted and took his place on the
trap. When asked if he had anything
to say, he replied he had but little.
In firm voice he told those present
that he did not want them to bear
any ill-will against his people on his
account. He asked for sympathy and
prayers, and urged them to walk in
Gods way.
Sheriff Withers sprung the trap at
1850. and 15 minutes later life was
extinct, and the body was cut down
Not a hitch occurred in the whole pre-
ceedings, everything passing off
smoothly as possible. The body
dropped five feet.
Before leaving the cell Branton bid
good bye to all around. He was per-
fectly calm.
Branton left several letters to be
mailed, and gave a white tie to his
brother and left Bible to his mother.
All was done without a culver of a
muscle. He assisted the officers in ty-
ing his hands, and did all he could to
help make a success Of the execution.
About 60 people witnessed the exc
cution, while thousand or more stood
ia the street around the inclosure, but
we're quiet and orderly. The body was
placed in coffin and delivered to his
people.
The crime for which Claude Branton
paid the penalty of death was that OF
taking the life of John A. Linn, a
stockman OF Condor, Gillian county.
in June, 1898. Courtland Green Is
now serving life sentence in the pen
itentiary for completely in the crime.

Desire for Peace Expressed at San Isl
drO-MacArthur Awaits Fresh Men.
Manila, May 12.-Reports received
from the insuIgent lines which, how
ever. have not been confirmed, say that
a meeting Of the Filipino congress has
,een held at San Isidro. There was
quorum present, but in spite of this
fact, some business was transacted.
The reporto add that although those
who attended were mostly partisans Of
Aguinaldo, strong desire for peace
was expressed.
Major-General Macarthur will prob
ably remain at San Fernando until
fresh troops can be forwarded to him
from this city to replace some of the
volunteers who have been exhausted
from the long campaign.
Filipino rifemen, to the number of
5000, are entrenched in three sides Of
Bacolor. The Americans, however, are
fully able to hold out, if Mondays at
tack was specimen of the enemy's
fighting ability.

European Hons,

Experiment is to be made at the
Corvallis station with two varieties of
of European hops that it is expected
may benefit hop production in Oregon.
One of the varieties is early. and the
other medium early in cropping. Each
is very strong in lupulin Only half
a dozen roots of each has been furnish
ed the station by the department at
Washington. DR.. Withycombe will
cultivate these on the college farm,
and if results are favorable, arrange
ments will follow for growers to be
supplied with enough cuttings to get
a start in the new varieties.

Troops Will Not Return From Manila
as Soon as Expected.
Washington, May l2.-Those who
expect an early return of the volunteers
in accordance with the promise of the
war department will no doubt be dis.
appointed when they read the an
nouncement that number Of trans
ports are leaving Manila, and none of
the organizations are returning upon
them.
The fact is, the California and Ore
gon regiments, the first to go to Ma
Mia. are now performing too important
service to be spared, as are all other
volunteer regiments in the Philippines.
Unless peace comes, the volunteers
cannot be spared unless the provincial
army is organized. Already much
valuable time has been lost in delaying
the organization of that army, and the
hope is that the volunteers can be held
until the Filipino rebellion is over.
Just why the transports should be sent
to the Uunited States without troops
is unexplained. They are not needed
here, for transportation has been pro-
yided for all troops under orders to the

Washington, May lathe effort

miral Dewey return by way OF San
Francisco is being supplemented here.
The representative of one Of the large
transcontinental lines called at the
navy department today and stated
that if Admiral Dewey returned by
way of San Francisco his railroad pro-
posed to place at his service an entire
train, the finest that ever crossed the
continent, and make it subject to his
wishes as to the places and time of
stops on the way east. 1t was urged
also that this would give practically
the whole country an opportunity to
join in the reception OF the hero of Ma.
Mia, instead of restricting it to the
stIeach between New York and Wash
ington.
