CROP BULLETIN,

Following is the crop report fur
nished the STANDARD by the U. s. De
partment of Agriculture, Seattle sta
tion,sfor the week ending June q:
The week was cool. except the last
two days, which were moderately warm.
1t was generally dry, except light loca
showers occurred in the northwest DOR
ton on the 21st and ODD. On the 22d
and 23d frosts occurred, which were
heavy in localities of the western divi.
sion, and severe in portions of the east
ern counties. Such vegetables as toma.
toes, beans and even potatoes were cn,
down, and fruit, corn, and small grain
were injured. The extent to which
wheat was damaged is not accurately
known.
The cool weather was favorable for the
filling of winter wheat, except where il
may have been touched by frost, and il
is generally in very promising condition.
Spring wheat is reported as in good con-
dition in most parts of Whitman county,
but in many other localities rain is
needed for the success of the crop. In
some localities only one-half of a crop is
anticipated. The wheat crop is very
weedy. Nothing adverse is reported in
regard to oats. Corn has not been max.
ing progress, and hops need warmer
weather. Potatoes are in general bloom.
Many anticipate light crop, although
it is early to form a conclusion.
Haying has been general throughout
the week, with almost ideal weather for
the purpose. The dry weather during
May and June has contributed to ma Ike
crop that is considered only light tc
fair, although secured, so far. in splendid
condition. In the moist southwest coun.
les the crop appears to be heavier.

THE BIG TROUT.
Yields Up His Life When Tempted by Epicu-

1t is a saying "The best fish are

its origin to the fisbermen's tales of
the splendid fish which always ge,

many OF our people who know that in
many of tho deep "holes" on Des.

HELD FOR MURDER.
Lum Joe's Motive In Killing Don Yin Outlined
BY a Tragedy Of the Past.


BY Tragedy Of the Past.
Lum Joe had succeeded, Monday,
in obtaining a bond for release on the
charge OF keeping an opium den, but
before the order was given. a new com.
plant was filed charging him with
the murder of Don Yin. The last
complaint is verified by the oath Of
Wong 81 Wing, an educated" China
man who can talk and write English
as we'll as he can articulate the
heather jargon or make hieroglyphics
equal to those on the Egyptian obelisk.
He is the half.caste Chinese interpre-
ter, better known as "Sam," and he
represents the Six Companies, of
which Don Yin was an humble factor.
It now turns out that the motive
for murder was to seal the lips OF the
victim. regarding dark secret, which,
in the strife aroused by business rival
ry, Yin had threatened to reveal. 1t
is claimed that this secret will be
proven by the introduction of letters
written by Yin to his relatives, in
which he gives the reason why he
contemplated selling out to leave this
place. He states that it was owing to
threats Of Lum Joe, and then states
why the latter had reason to get rid OF
him in some way.
1t is claimed that those letters will
substantiate in detail the dying state.
ment OF Don Yin, that Lum Joe had
shot him because he had threatened
to expose the visit of q white woman
to his opium den. 1t is not only the
visit that the letters are expected to
reveal, but death several years ago
OF a bright young woman, who was
found in the bay near Lum Joe's
garden, whose fate was mystery that
has never been solved. Several facts
went to thow that it was neither a
case of suicide nor of drowning. An
autopsy showed that the victims
lungs contained no water, which would
have been the case had she entered the
water before death; that the body was
wrapped in . cape, which indicated
there had been no struggle such al
precedes drowning, and that her veil
was tied in peculiar, bungling way,
that no woman would have done. The
absence of motive, at the time, ban.
ished all thought of suicide, while
she recent circumstances fit in with
Yin's statement that he had assisted
in placing the body in the water, after
removing it from Lum Joe's shack
where death had followed too deep an
inhalation Of the powerful drug. The
high reputation OF the victim pre-.
cludes any idea that she had resorted
to the pipe for any other reason than
that she was subject at times to acute
bodily pain, followed by dependency
and it is barely possible that having
heard of Lum Joe's den, she had
thoughtlessly subjected herself to the
seductive influences OF the overpower.

logical explanation OF that sad occur.

Lum Joe Is Arraisned Before Justice Gle, and
Held to Answer.
The preliminary hearing in the
charge against Chinaman Lum Joe of
murder OF Don Yin. on the night of
the 10Th ult., took place yesterday
afternoon in the Superior courtroom,
before Justice Giles. The prosecution
was conducted by Attorney Owings on
behalf Of the people, and George C.
Israel, attorney for the Six Companies.
The defense was under the manage.
ment of Joe Robinson and w. l. Ag.
new. The complaint is filed by Wong
81 Wing. Drs. Redpath and NOVEL;
were examined with reference to the
nature of the wound, and the ante
norton statement of the dying man,
which went to show that he was quite
sure of who his assailant had been.

the murder, and other occurrences
which make q connected chain and
establish . motive for the horrible
crime, it is asked that he be held for
trial. Har Yuen. Lum Joe's gardener,
was arrested yesterday, after finding
the pistol, in the belief that he might
be able to throw additional light upon
the crime. Jim kee swore positively
that the pistol belonged to Lum Joe,
identifying it by some holes left in re-
moval OF the holster ring. A number
OF other Cinnamon were examined,
completing what is thought to be am
pie evidence to convict, whereupon
Justice Giles announced that he would
hold the prisoner without bonds to
answer for the crime OF murder.
