The federal cases against Palm Con-
rad, of this city, and D. s. Sprinkle, of
Bickleton, for cutting timber from gov
eminent lands, came up for hearing in
the U. S. court in Walla Walla, last
week, and has finally been settled. Fred
Parker represented the defendants and
the verdict of not guilty was prepared by
Judge Hanford and accepted by the
jury. This will probably be the last of
such cases in this section of the country
and is very satisfactory conclusion as
much malice has been shown in the pro-
secution. The witnesses were w. j.
Reed, Capt. J. 7. Kingsbury, J. H. Con-
rad and Harry Roberts, all of whom
have returned.
There is much anxiety felt over the
news that smallpox is epidemic in Ros-
lyn. At first doubts were expressed as
to the nature of the disease, the doctors
differing in opinion but all question was
removed when two experts from Spo-
kane and two from Seattle, were sum-
moned and made the examinations. 1t
is said there are between four and five
hundred cases in Roslyn, although the
disease is not of a malignant type, only
two deaths having been reported. Com
munication between Roslyn and Ellens-
burg has been very free and the citizens
OF the latter place are greatly exercised
in consequence. Sheriff Browns daugh-
ter, who has been visiting in Roslyn, is
down with the disease and the sheriff's
house has been placed under quarantine.
So far as known no cases have been de-
veloped in Yakima but Health Officer
Frank is showing much activity and has
made several visits where the sickness
has been of such nature as to arouse
suspicion.
