AFTER all the russ and feathers around the
White House, the sum total is that Governor
Stone, after consultation with the president has
ordered out all OF the Pennsylvania troops to
suppress the striking miners and sustain the coal
borons. And so, the coal operators have secured
what they SO arrogantly asked for. But where
will the end be Federal troops next, no doubt.

Chicago, Sept. 6.-The body of a
a man thought to be William Bar
tholin, accused of the murder of his
mother and sweetheart in Chicago
a month ago, was found in field
near Lowther, Ia. 290 miles from
Chicago. He had been shot in the
head, and pistol lay near by.
In the mans pocket was a letter
confessing to the murder of ''two
women" in Chicago, and one signed
"Minnie MITCHELL" the name Of
Bartholin's murdered fancee.
The body was removed to Rice
vile, where it was recognized as
that of man who had been in the
vicinity for some time. A number
of persons who bad talked with him
recalled that he had given the name
of William" To others he said
he was William Boscoe. At the
hotel he had registered as civilian
Edwards" He disappeared a week
ago today, and it is presumed that
it was then that he took his life in
despair of eluding the police and
in terror of being captured.
The town authorities at once not.
ed the resemblance the body bore
to the description of the Chicago
fugitive. 1t was then that more
careful examination was made and
the note confessing the murders
was found. The town authorities
buried the body, but it will be ex,
humed to remove any doubt as to
the identity of the suicide.
Bartholin's note referred to the
two murders, and declared that no
one except himself was concerned
in the com mission of the crime.
The note filled one and quarter
pages of letter paper, and was sign
ed civilian Bartholin." Other
letters found on the body were writ
ten two years ago, and were signed
an. NJ" The body itself furnish
es several points which are similar
to those in the amended police de-
scription of Bartholin, issued Au-
gust 13. Chief of these is the up
per false teeth. The undertaken
who handled the body said that
the upper teeth were false and 'set
in white plate" AS to whether
there were two gold-crowned teeth
in the body, another means of iden-
tifying Bartholin, the undertaken
could not remember. It was ap-
parent that death had occurred
several days ago, and to this fact is
due the obliteration of some of the
points relied on for full identifi.
cation.
The confession was dated August
81, and in it the writer declares
that he killed his mother for her
money, and later murdered
his sweetheart. Bartholin accu-
ses Minnie Mitchell of be-
ing party to the plot to mnrder
his mother. The murder of Mrs.
Bartholin, the confession runs, was
accomplished according to a plot
arranged between the lovers, and
later Bartholin killed Miss Mitch
ell. The confession states that
Thom pson, Claffy and Counselman,
the other suspects, are guilty of no
in the murder.

Chicago, Sept. 7.-Chief of Pc.
lice O'Neil says there is no doubt
as to the Identification of the body
found in field in Iowa as that oil
William Bartholin. DR.. Coey, the
dentist who Oiled Bartholin's teeth,
was taken to Iowa last night with
Detective Rohan and has fully
identified his work on the teeth,
and several letters from innie
Mitehell we're found in the pocket
of the suicide, according to a dis.
patch today received from Rohan.
The charges preferred by the po.
lice against Clafey, Thompson and
Counselman will be heard by the
next grand jury, which will be con.
vened one week from Tuesday.
Said an attache of the state attor-
ney's Office tonight: "The confes-
sion of the suicide is not a ukase'
guaranteed to free everybody. The
fact that the murderer killed three
people, including himself, will add
no great weight to this piece of
written testimony left behind.
There may be other strong evidence
involving these three men. This
evidence must be heard, wherefore
the accused must remaiu in Jail in
default of bail, unless released on
habeas copus, and hardly believe
that Is possibler.

Castries, Island of St. Lucia, B.
W. L, Sept. 5.-The report brought
by the Royal Mail steamer Yaro,
which arrived here yesterday, of the
loss of 1000 livesthrough the recent
outbreak of Mount Pelee, referred
to the deaths since August 80, and
not to the loss of life resulting from
the reported outbreak of Wednes-
day, September 8. The eruption
of Mount Pelee was not remarka-
BILE, but there was terrific explo.
sion from the Souffriere on that
date.
The captain of the steamer of Sa-
vana confirms the report cabled to
the Associated Press last night that
she ran into dense clouds of dust
when 20 miles south of st. Vincent
at 2 o'clock in the morning of We'd
nesday, and adds that absolute
darkness prevailed soon afterwards,
and that he changed his course to
due west, in order to avoid the ash
es, which were falling thick. The
first officer could not see the cap
tain two feet away, and only knew
him by his voice. They did not
see the sun until about 10 A. M. of
the same day.
The steamer Yaro further reports
that several more valuable planta-
tions were destroyed at the time of
the recent outbreak, in addition to
townships referred to in previous
dispatches, and adds that the de-
lection of the population is general.
New Yerk, Sept. Sit is gener-
ally believed that the Island of
Martinique is doomed to total de-
struction, and the fear is that when
the catastrophe comes Guadeloupe
will be visited by an all destructive
tidal wave, cables the Point-a-Pitre,
Guadeloupe correspondent of the
Herald. Business is absolutely at
standstill. Few shops are open and
if it were not for the efforts of a
small number of more valiant souls,
hundreds would starve to death
here because of their fear of more
terrible death. Details that have
been received during the last two
days prove that the eruption of
Mount Pelee August 80 was far
more violent than any Of the earlier
explosions. AS the eruptions con-
tinue, the Mouth of Mount Pelee
grows in size. 1t is now of enor-
nous proportions. Morne Lacroix,
one of the peaks that reared sky
ward from the south side of Pelee,
has fallen bodily into the crater
and has been completely swallow
ed. There seems to be side pres
sure in the crater and the burning
chasm widens perceptibly every
day.
Clouds no more hang about the
crest of Mount Pelee. The terrific
heat seems to drive everything a.
way. The column of flame and
smoke rear directly into the heav-
ems, SO that its top is lost to sight.
In the darkness of the night it has
the appearance of stream of mol

Chicago, Sept. 5.-"I am serious
ly alarmed at the news Of the re-
newed activity of the Martinique
and st. Vincent volcanoes" says
Louis III. Ayme, United States
Consul at Guadeloupe, who is in
Chicago on sick leave. "Shou1d

loss of life would be appalling.
With Pelee as center, chain Of
islands extends northumberland, en-
bracing a population of some 750,-
600. Almost without exception,
the cities and villages are situated
along the coasts, and but slightly
elevated above the sea. A tidal
wave 40 feet high would probably
destroy 100000 lives before it dash
ed against the shores of Porto Rico
with its 1000, 900 inhabitants.
The people of these islands are in
a hard situation. Their communi-
cation with the outer world depends
chiefly on a single line of steamers,
which call at intervals of from 10
days to three weeks at some of the
islands, when freight offers. The

CORVALLIS OREGON, SEPTEMBER

PEELED to make q quick retreat, al
though they succeeded in taken out
a few wounded. The entire coun-
try, nearly to Fort de France, is
buried under deep cover of ashes.
This has made it almost impossible
to find the bodies of those who have
perished while fleeing to the sea-
coast.
Constantine Cara, one of the few
who succeeding in escaping from
Morne Rouge, after the explosion,
found refuge on the steamer Esk.
She was with IL others in the house
when Pelee gave its first warning of
the disaster which it was about to
pour upon the village. She said
that the first explosion destroyed
many houses. She was hurled with
great force against the wall of the
room in which she was sitting. On
recovering from this shock, she ran
outside and there saw three separate
tongues of fire sweeping down from
the mouth Of the volcano. The
earth shook with so great violence
that she could not retain her feet.
She was blinded by the glare Of the
flames. The heat was so terrific
that her flesh was blistered. She
awaited the death which seemed to
be inevitable. Fortunately the fire
swept a little to one side of her and
she was saved.
At Grand Anz the tide swept 300
feet in shore, destroying many hous-
es and drowning scores Of inhabi-
tants.
Even at Fort de France the most
stout of heart have lost courage.
Colonel LeCoeur has reported to
his government that it his opinion
the entire island of Martinique will
have to be abandoned. He asks
for assistance in transporting the
inhabitants to the other islands of
the West Indian group.

ACpphOi, W., Oopt. C-GH Lay
a prominent sheepman of Morrow

vile.
On Monday morning at 8 o'clock
Mr.. Day arrived at his sheep cam o,
where be went for the purpose of
getting his sheep started out of the
mountains. He had hardly arrived
when one of his sheep-herders, who
was out on the hill with the sheep
came running into camp with the
news that 25 masked men with
guns were after the sheep. Just
then shooting commenced, which
lasted for several minutes.
Mr.. Days loss is about $1,000.
Mr.. Day remained at the camp that
day and then set out for this place
to notify the officers.
The sheepmen of this country
are very mnch worked up over the
affair. The miners have what they
call miners reserve. They will
blaze piece Of ground near where
they are working for their horses to
run on, and expect the sheepmen to
keep off. The miners have about
half OF the mountains blazed now
and as it is government range, the
sheepmen run their sheep on it.
Mr.. Day had his sheep on place
of this kind, and it is supposed this
is the cause of the shooting.
Meriden, Conn. Aug. 3O.-Chas
c. Pickhardt, a wealthy merchant
of this city, is entertaining Ray
mond Diehle, an officer of a United
States transport ship whose home
is in San Francisco.
A pretty romance prompted the
visit. In 1898 Miss Rosa Pickhard,
sent some magazines and books to
the soldiers in the Philippines. In
one of these she placed an informal
note, wishing the boys all manner
Of luck. She signed her full name.
Diehle discovered the letter and i'm.
mediately answered it.
A correspondence sprang up be-
tween the young people and letters
have been received almost every
week for the past four years. An
invitation was finally extended to
the soldier to visit the Pickhardts,
and he has just arrived here. The
meeting is said to have proved a
case of love at first sight, and Miss
Pickhardt's friends are now in a
furry awaiting the outcome.

dropped. Those who do not want to go
SO far west, to a district school, will
come into the city and gay tuition. 1t
is likely further territory will be an
neSed west of the present western
limit. and that will take in those who
wish to be in the district. By another
year it is more than likely that hand
some new school building Will be
erected in the extreme west part of the
city. as the school population is so rap
idly increasing that there is not sutt1-
cient room. Superintendent Crane re-
ported that every building in the city
was crowded to overflowlng, and that in
some rooms chairs were being provided
for pupils. The present condition will
not be relieved until the new Click
school is completed and then there Will
be but one extra room more than has
been under former conditions.
