CHOLERA IN GERMANY.


Berlin, Sept. 4.-Forty-three cases
of cholera in all have been reported
Nine persons have died Of the disease,
and many suspicious cases are under
observation. The legal and medical
machinery for dealing with this inva-
sion Of the Asiatic bacillus is now
working at full pressure. Professor
Edward Sonnenburg said to the Assoc
ciated Press tonight that no one need
fear an epidemic such as that OF 1892
93, because the health authorities since
that time had built up an organization
quite adequate to grasp the beginnings
of such cholera and to put down the
disease with precision and firmness.
The health machinery to which Pro-
lessor Sonneburg alluded is working in
cooperation with the police and other
public servants. With the exception
of ore death at Hamburg, the cholera
is confined to West Prussian districts,
and every case of illness in these dis
tricts must be Immediately reported to
the authorities. An experienced ply
stefan and bacteriologist at once takes
the case under observation, and, il the
symptoms are suspicious, the person is
promptly isolated.

Reach $3.50, 600.

Portland, Sept. Alt required but
half AN hour yesterday noon for fire to
wipe out the Albina dock, warehouse
and entire plant OF the Pacific Coast
Elevator company, completely destroy
ten freight cars OF the O. II. & N. Co.
and damage the plant of the Eastern &
Western Lumber company, across the
river. The loss totals $210,500 and
insurance is 1886, 900.
Originating In the elevator building,
the fire spread rapidly north and south,
famed by strong gale from the east.
Before apparatus could reach the scene.
the destruction OF the large dock and
elevator property was practically &C.
complished.
The Albina dock, the property OF the
o. r. 4 N. Co.. and the elevator build
ings we're situated ON the East Side
river front, just below the 0. II. & N.
car shops. So furious was the wind
that blazing brands we're quickly watt
ed across the river, igniting the plant
Of the Eastern Lumber Co., directly
opposite.
There was great anxiety at the Lewis
and Clark exposition grounds when the
fire was raging half mile distant. If
the flames had gained secure foot
hold ON the west side OF the river and
spread to any great extent, the exposi-
ton would have been in the direct
path.
One burning ember lighted on the
roof OF the Manufacturers building, but
only small hole was burned before it
was stamped out.

NORTHWEST WHEAT CROP.
Oregon, Washington and Idaho Pro-
duce TO, 600, 600 Bushels.


! Portland, Sept. s.. Unless there
should be some unexpected light re
turns from the late sown grain not yel
harvested, 1t now seems quite probable
that the three states, Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho, will for the first time
on record harvest crop Of approx
mately 0,000, 900 bushels Of wheat.
The figures 1ow submitted do not, oil
course, possess the same degree Of &C.
ouracy that would be possible month
later. However, they have been COM
piled from information secured by a
large number Of men in very close
touch with The situation. The totals
estimated for the three states are:
Oregon, 12,400, 900; Washington, 49,
500, 900; Idaho, 4,soo, 900.
The crop, II these figures are sub
stantiated by the final returns, avail-
able at the close OF the season, will be
more than 5000, 900 bushels greater
than any of its predecessors and will be
nearly 9 1000, bushels greater than that
Of last year. Practically all Of the i'm
crease IN In the state OF Washington,
Oregon falling slightly behind last
years figures.
This shortage in Oregon Is due to the
damage by hot weather in the river
counties. where the crop was exception
ally heavy last year. The Willamette
valley, while turning out a very dis
appointing yield compared with that
which was expected early in the sea-
son, has better crop than that OF last
year, and the Grand Ronde probably
has twice rs much wheat as 1t pro-
duced last year.
The big gains In Washington were
largely due to an immense amount of
new land that is this year turning off
It's first crop, and also to excellent
yields whore crops were very poor last
year. The greater part of this new
land lis In the Big Bend, but there is
also large amount of new acreage in
the Washtucna and Horse Heaven dis
tricts.

FEELS HER SHAME.
All Russia Humi'iated by the Cession

All Russia Inundated by the Cession
of Territory.
st. Petersburg, Sept. l. Judging
from the press comment of today on
peace, it would appear that, while
pleased with the prospect of the re-
moval of further bloodshed from the
Far East, large portion of the public
is unable to reconcile itself to the loss
of territory, however insignificant. The
national pride seems to be offended by
the cession of part OF the island of SAX
hahn.
Yesterday the people spoke of "to-
lays shame" meaning peace. Many
of the utterances show evidences oil
regret that the army had not been
given another chance to try the fort
unes of war, though no one questions
or Undertakes the humanity of the
course followed by President Roosevelt,
the plenipotentiaries and Emperor
Nicholas.
The tone of many Of the utterantes
concerning peace ind ices one to be-
lieve that further sacrifice of human
lives would not be unacceptable, if the
national self respect could be regained
thereby. One word of disapproval OF
the terms from Toxic suggesting that
Japan did not desire to be bound by
the terms might result in fare-up
here in defense of war and the national
honor.

Washington, Sept. 2. - The Inter

souri, river points to Pacific coast TER
minals, in so far as the rate on CON
products is more than 5 cents above the
rate on corn. constitute discrimina-
tion against corn products ana proooo
ers thereof at places on the MISSOURI
river.
II was shown by the decision that
the differential rates on corn and corn
products from Missouri river points 70
California terminals was for about one
wear after January /, 1890, differen-
tial OF 8 cents against corn proouc's'
Then for about one and one-half years
it was 8 cents in favor of corn products.
The rates were the same between July,
1892, and March, 1895, when diner
entail Of cents against corn PRODUCES
was established. In December, 1877,
the differential was increased to ~
cents, and in July, 1902. it was mace
20 cents. During March, 1904, the
dlfferentlal was fixed at TN cents,
and in October Of that year IT was re-
duced to 10 cents and has since re-
NAMED at that figure.
Changes in the relations OF rates on
corn and corn products from Missouri
river points to North Pacific terminals
we're not generally different from
those mentioned, except that in De-
cember, 1897. the rate was made the
same on corn and corn products, and
there is now no difference unless the
minimum carload for corn is the
marked capacity of the car, in which
case the rate shows differential OF
10 cents against corn products.

Awful Ravages of Yellow Fever in
Honduras.


San Pedro, CAL, Sept. 2. - Spanish
Honduras is devastated by the most
terrible scourge of yellow fever the
country has ever known. The out
break is the first for nearly ten years.
Three towns have been devastated and
almost destroyed by the fever, which
has been raging there since May.
1t originally started in Belize, Brit
ish Honduras, where many prominent
residents were victims. Thence it
spread to Puerto Cortez, Cholomo and
San Pedro. In all these towns the raw
ages have been frightful. In Puerto
Cortez every non-immune citizen has
died, and the only ones left are those
who cannot take the fever.
The epidemic, having no more VIC
tins there, has gone up country over
the railway lines, and is now raging
throughout large part of interior
Spanish Honduras.
Trade is stagnated. I'll ere is no one
