giving a right of way through the
military reservation at Vancouver for
a proposed line $50 miles in length
between Wallula and Vancouver.

SMUGGLING GALORE.

Opium Cargoes and Chinese.


Opium Cargoes and Chinese.
Salmon bay is a nest for SNUG
glers, says the Seattle Star.
Small sailing vessels daily drop
their anchor at the mouth of the bay
and steal up into the far part of the
city under cover of night. During
the past two weeks three fishing do
ries have made their way into the
harbor, but never a fish can be found
in their boat.
The bay is dotted with these small
fishing dories handled by honest men,
and smuggler has a good chance to
carry on his work in the pretense OF
an honest fisherman. Several times
the revenue officers have tracked
these night workers. but have been
unsuccessful in catching them.
Their work is carried on so smooth
ly that even the fishermen are moi
aware of the unlawful practice that is
| carried on in these innocent looking
fishing dories. Not only opium SNUG
! glin is carried on in Salmon bay, bu
also the smuggling of Cinnamon into
this country.
1t is the nearest port to Seattle anC
there are few chances in their beint

well pay the immigration service o

THINK WALLACE
ACTED MEANLY
RESIGNATION TO TAKE EFFECT
AT ONCE, SAYS PRESIDENT
ROOSEVELT.

OYSTER BAY. l.. l.. July 1.-The
resignation of Grief Engineer Wal.
lace, of the IsthEEian Canal Commits
sion. has beeiI accepted. The resig-
nation was rendered at a conference
in New York between Mr.. Wallace
and Secretary Taft. Mr.. Wallace re-
ceived while in Panama an offer of a
position with great corporation, the
name of which is withheld, at a sal
airy of 100000 per annum. His salary
with the Panama t.anal Commission
and as chief engineer of the canal was
S25,o00 year. When he told Score.
tary Taft that he desired to accept
the offer which lad been rendered
to him the Secretary expressed to Mr..
Wallace his feeling in the matter, but
he accepted his resignation after a
conference with the President at Bos-
ton. to take effect Immediately.
Engineer Wallace suggested to Sec
rotary Taft that he wo Id remain with
the commission two months longer
but, after considering the matter, Pres
ident Roosevelt ~'rected Secretary
| Taft to accept the resignation at once.
There is no concealment by the ad-
ADMINISTRATION of lis feeling regarding
Mr.. Wallace's tender at this time OF
his resignation, 1t is felt that he has
not acted fairly to the government in
accepting comparatively recently the
responsibility of directing the canal
construction aud now offering his res
ignation at . time which is regarded
as crucial in tie work of the canal.
1t is said that ne not only accepted
the position as chief engineer but
sought it and expressed his entire
satisfaction witt the salary given tc
him by the government.

A RICH STRIKE.
SALE OF BONDS ORDERED
STOPPED.

Ihere has been unusual activity for
the last few days among the officials
Of the Pittsburg and San Juan Mining
Company, of Pittsburg, Pa, as a re-
suit of rich strike in the Orel!a tun-
mel. While the officials are not in
clined to talk freely regarding their
good luck, the fact has leaked out that
a large vein of extremely rich ore has
been struck. 1t is rumored that it
runs over one hundred dollars a ton.
The prompt action of the directors in
stopping the sale of bonds, which the
company has. been floating for the
purpose of raising sufficient funds for
the erection of stamp mill, indicates
that the reported strike is a reality.
Last evening, during brief inter-
view, one of the directors remarked
that they did not consider it advisable
to continue the sale of bonds, as it
was not necessary to burden the COM
pany with big indebtedness and that
the balance of the money required to
complete the stamp mill would be Sc
cured by the sale of limited amount
of stock. 1t is understood that the
company expects to pay dividends in
less than six months, and that they
have already over twenty-five thou
sand tons of ore averaging over ten
dollars a ton, ready for the mill. The
company owns over two hundred
acres of the richest mineral land in
Colorado, and as the principal owners
are we'll known Pittsburgers, the sue
cess of the enterprise is assured. At
present the headquarters of the COM
pany are located at 4oS Penn avenue,
Pittsburg, Pa, where information can
be obtained regarding the price of
stock. AS only a limited amount of
stock will be offered for sale. only
those who apply early can be accom-
modated.

FORCED TO DRINK POISON
WOMAN MAKES THE CHARGE
UNCONSCIOUS FOR THIRTY
SIX !ouRs.

Runners, with some foundation in
fact, are to the effect that woman
living in the vicinity of Jericho. was
forced by a man to drink poisonous
mixture FROM a bottle on Wednesday
night, says the Warrington Record.
1t is said that the woman was walk
ing to Warrington on the railroad
track when she was met by man
who forced her to drink from a bottle.
The woman became unconscious
after drinking the liquid and was
found in that condition by persons
who knew where She lived, and was
carried IL her home.
Until this morning she has been
unable to speak, but it is stated that
early this forenoon she was SO far
recovered as TO be able to tell who the
man was and TO give brief account
of her experience.
Tho police say that they understand
the wo,pan's relatives will. prefer
charges; against the man as soon as
his victim is sufficiently recovered to
tel her story more fully.
