ABANDONED In THE
DARKNESS OF NIGHT
Russians Desert the Important Position
They Held at Niu Chwang.

Chez Foo, May 10. Passengers ar
irving today from Niu Chwang say the
Russian force probably evacuated that
place during last night. Many had al
ready departed yesterday, and those re-
naming made no secret of their inten-
ton to leave. There is no activity what
ever at forts where there are still guns
in position. Three thousand bandits
are camped outside the walls of Niu
Chwang, ready to begin looting at the
moment the Russians leave the city.
There are many foreign camp followers
with the bandits, who are giving the
Russians much trouble along the rail
roads between Nui Chwang and Muk-
den. Last week they destroyed cul-
vert and delayed traffic four days. The
Japanese feet was in force off Port
Arthur Monday, but did not make any
hostile demonstration.

WHITES THIRD run
RACE FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY
WITH LEROY L0MAX.
Baker County Democrat Has the Ad-
vantage in Being Acquainted
With Voters OF District.

Baker City, May 6. The leading po-
litical parties placed their candidates in
the field about month ago, yet there
has been no move to open the campaign
until this week. The democrats will
fire their first gun at Sumpter Saturday
evening, on which occasion Hon. w.
F. Butcher and ex-senator William
Smith will speak.
The principal contest will be for the
Office of district attorney for the eighth
judicial district, between Hon. Sam
White, of Baker county, the democratic
candidate, and Hon. Leroy Lomax, of
Union county, the republican nominee.
Both men are confident. White has
been elected twice and is now out for
the third term, which is being urged
against him.
The district is rather uncertain po-
litically. Judge Eakin, the district
judge, who is a republican, has been
elected twice, SO there is nothing on
which to base an estimate as to the prob
able result.
The big fight for this Office will be
waged in this city and county, where
White has considerable opposition, even
in his own party. A most determined
effort was made against him. for the
nomination and he only won by two
majority after bitter contest. Lomax,
the republican candidate, is not known
in this countya a defect which the re-
publican county chairman says will be
remedied before the campaign closes
Locally the greatest contest will be
for the Office of sheriff. The democrats
covet this Office above all others because
1t is the best Office in the county. For
the past six y ears the Office of sheriff has
been filed by republican, while the
county Judge and commissioners have
been democrats. The present county
court is democratic, and will remain SO
for the next two years at least, hence a
determined effort on the part of democ-
racy to outset Mr.. Brown, the present
republican sheriff, who has served one
term, and elect a democrat in his stead.

THE CASE SETTLED
HEPPNER FLOOD DISASTER is
REVIVED BY SUITS.
Heirs of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Handy
Come to Agreement on
Division Of Money.

The famous Handy case from Hep
pner has been settled out of court ac-
cording to the following story from Port
land:
The question whether Emma Handy
or her husband, Harry Handy. who were
both drowned on June IA, 1908, in the
Heppner food, died first has been dis
posed of from legal standpoint, and
$4,000 insurance left by Handy will
go to his heirs, instead of her heirs.
Handy was insured in the Modern
Woodmen Of America, and Ogelsby
Young, attorney for the heirs of Mrs.
Handy, thought he could prove by evil
dence that she died last, thereby becom-
ing entitled to the insurance before her
death, and after her death, there being
no children, the money should go to her
heirs. The claim Of the heirs Of Harry
Handy also had to be considered, and to
determine the controversy as to who was
entitled to receive the $4,000, suit was
filed in the state circuit court, and the
society, which had no interest in the
case one way or the other, paid the
money into court, subject to its decree.
In the county court yesterday Ogels-
by Young fled petition in the inter-
est of Ernest Voose, administrator of
the estate Of Mrs. Handy, stating that
no'proof could be secured to overcome
the presumption that Handy survived
his wife, and that the other side had
offered $125 in settlement, which the
administrator was satisfied to accept.
The suit in the state circuit court will
be dismissed, and the heirs Of Harry
Handy will get the remainder Of the
money.
There is a presumption OF law where
a man and woman are drowned or
accidently killed together, where there
is no proof of the exact time OF the death
of either, that the man being the strong
er physically, survived the longest. This
question was raised in the case Of Charles
L. Fair and wife, who we're killed in an
automobile accident in France, and
years ago the same question was argued
in the courts of San Francisco in the
case of Jennie Vaudeville, we'll known
actress, who with her husband, was
drowned on the steamer Pacific.

Improves the Road.

The county court has ordered i'm
provements, to the extent Of $1,5O0, to
be made on the county road on the south
fork Of the Walla Walla river, from the
forks to the works Of the Washington
and Oregon Electric Power Co., the
company and the county to each bear
one-half Of the expenditure. The ma
chinery which the company will install
is of the heaviest character, and could
not be freighted with the road in its
present condition. The improvements
in the road will also benefit all those
living upon or doing business over the
South Fork road. Milton Eagle.

Cavern of Gold
Found in Nevada

Reno, New, Dec. 28.-A heavy shot
in drift of the Lookout mine at Gold
field recently opened up an immense
cave containing one of the largest
bodies of pay ore ever discovered in
that portion of Nevada. Careful meas
urements of the ore exposed were made
and 1T was determined that the ore
cave contained over 10, 900 tons of gold
ore, which will average So per ton.
The men had put a heavy shot in the
drift, and the next morning when the
muckers went to wor to clear up the
ore they discovered that large cavern
had been opened up. Part of the drift
had fallen IN, and one side of the tun-
mel had been blown away, exposing the
cavern. As the caverns are of frequent
occurrence in the mines in the Gold
field district and usually contain ore,
the men investigated and found all the
walls were of gold.

Postmaster General Wynne has prepar-

polygamist postmasters holding office

wives. In every instance, however,
these wives were taken prior to the en-
