BRUTAL CRIME AT oLNEY.
Attempted Rape Case There Saturday
Nlght-Brute Escapes.

Tho attempt OF man named Tim
corbett 90 commit rape upon the per-
son OF Mrs, John Denk. Saturday. at
olney. has aroused the inhabitants Of
that usually quiet place TO such an
extent that. II Corbett Is caught he
may be given a necktie party.
The crime was committed at log
ging camp where Corbett. Mrs. Denk
and her husband were employed.
Corbett II Is asserted caught the wo-
man by the throat when she resisted
and choked her into insenslblllty. She
now is In n critical condition because
OF the brutal treatment.
No complaint OF the affalr reached
the authorities here until Monday af-
ternoon. when the husband OF the wo-
man came In to obtain n warrant for
the mans arrest.
The necessary papers were made out
and Deputy Sheriff Kelly went to Oh
ney Monday night, but did not catch
his man. Corbett had heard Of Denk's
departure for Astoria and made good
his escape. Every effort Is now being
made TO locate him.
This is not Corbett's first appearance
before the public as brute. Less than
a year ago he was tried for attempting
rape upon the person of young girl
but the evidence was not sufficient to
send him to the penitentiary.

THE PLAGUE IN AUSTRALIA.

The bubonlc plague still exists in an
cplQrmic form In Sydney and other
points In Australia. Files Of Austral-
ian newspapers received by the Alame-
da, yesterday. bring this information,
though for July 3 and I. the latter the
date Of the sailing Of the Alameda, no
new cases and no deaths had been re-
ported. The typhoid epidemic still con-
tinues. however. The ravages Of the
plague were abated, according TO the
papers by cleansing Of the city and
the determination OF the rats" A sys-
tematlc inspection Of the stables In the
city was made. Reference was made
TO the crusade against consumption,
and the practice of expectoration in the
streets was marked down for suppress
sion.
Large areas Of Sydney and Waterloo
are quarantined under proclamation.

Maitland. At the latter place the re-
Gently erected inclnerator is doing good
work in depicting the district OF rats,
the totals for two days having been
l27 and 50 respectively. while close up
on 100 were destroyed the following
day Rats were brought from places
out OF town.
Brisbane, Rackhampton, Melbourne
and Auckland. but In some OF these
places the disease exists In a mild form

day a rat was caught which proved
TO be highly infected with plague ba-

renewed alarm and increased vigilance"
In Sydney the total number OF cases
registered up to June so was 296, the
total number OF deaths 10l. and the

FISHERMEN ARE GUESSING.
Question Regarding Closing OF Season
Now Being Discussed.

The question regarding the exact
time the season closes ON the river.
was the main topic OF conversation
among the fishermen yesterday. Many
hold that while the law holds good on
this side OF the river they can con-
tinue fishing and sell their catch on
the Washington side because the sea-
son there does not close until August
10Th.
The fishermen are very much dis
heartened over the prospects for good
run OF salmon before Friday, when the
season closes.
The stories OF great luck on the
Sound are doing much TO cheer up the
men here. and many hope that there
yet may come good run.
II Is held by those who are author
tiles on the question that the state
OF Oregon has jurisdiction over the riv-
er to the Washington shore and that
anyone fishing after rhe 10th OF the
month can be prosecuted under the
Oregon laws.
A case known as Anna NJ. Small
case" was cited wherein Judge Deadly,
at one time. held that his jurisdiction
extended To the Washington shores
where the steamer Anna NJ. Small was
moored, and his decision was sustained
