DRIscoLL AND MORAN.
Matched for Twenty Rounds for Eng
 fish Championship.

New York, Aug. Word comes from London that Jem Driscou and owen Moran have been matched to box tenty-five rounds for the feather weight championship of England on September 15. They have signed ar ticles and have received an offer of a s1O,00O purse. but will not accept it until other promoters have put in their bids. This match will probably excite interest all over the world, inasmuch as the winner will be matched with Abe Attell for the worlds feather weight title Driscoll and Moran were under the same management in this country all last winter and spring, and therefore could not meet in the ring. Driscol Outpointed AtteIl in ten rounds at the National Athletic club of this city while Moran fought two draws with the American champion in Cali fornia-

in the Canadian lock necessitated the closing of the Canadian canal for over week. This delayed navigation through the canals and may have af- fected somewhat the traffic results for the month. The traffic figures for the three months during which the canals were open. 12,117,367 net tons, while more than double those of a year ago, are still one-third short of the corresponding figures of 1907.
 The vessel movements on the lakes during the month likewise shows a considerable increase over the totals reported last year. There were 9,049 departures in the domestic trade, rep resenting a net tonnage of 12,S11,495, against S,591 departures and a ton mage of 10,357,S75 reported for June, 1908. The canal authorities at Sault Ste. Marie report for the month 235O passages of vessels of 5,59S,176 tons register. The monthly vessel move ment through the Detroit river for June included 2727 vessels of 5,7S1 ,09S net tons register. For the current season, to the end of June, 22.S3S vessels are reported to have departed in the domestic lake trade with ton mage of 2S,366,314, compared with 19,- 963 vessels of 20.S1S,S27 net tons reg ister reported for the corresponding period in 1908. The canals at Sault Ste. Marie were used during the same period by 44sO vessels of 9,93S,7O7 net tons register. while the season move ment through the Detroit river in- cluded 5522 vessels of 1062O,711 net tons register.

THE COURSE
 |S SMOOTH For Final Passage of Tariff ID BE UN0PPOSED
The Senators Who Voted Against Bill Will Proba- ply Put in the Record Their Reasons Why-Ad- journment This Week.

Washington. Aug. 1.-Unless some thing happens to provoke heated po- litical wrangles the new tariff bill should be enacted into law. and the extraordinary session of congress ad- journed before the end of the week. The senate will meet tomorrow morn ing An inquiry among the senator's opposed to the conference report indi- cates that the debate will be extended. Mir. Aldrich has determined that the cOnferee's report shall not be carried into next week. The opponents of free hides will probably discuss that sub ject, and the republicans who voted against the bill on it's passage may take occasion to explain their motives. Mir. CulbersOn, the democratic leader, is authority for the statement that the democrats will not filibuster against the adoption of the conference re- port.

 Neither the Carlists nor the Sepa- ratists are involved in the movement in Catalonia, the ambassador asserted The correspondent of Martin declares that the feeling is bitter in several provinces, that the people in the small towns are organized into bands to guard the railways and prevent the dispatch of endorsements for the army to Barcelona.

CALAMITY OF OSAKA
 INCREASES IN EXTENT A BUSINESS PARALYSIS IN
 ELECTED. It Is Estimated That 10000 Buildings
 Were Destroyed.

OSAKA, Aug. 1.-Confusion still pre- vails as a result of Saturdays disas- trous fire. Thousands are homeless. The number of casualties have not been determined, but hundreds are crowding the hospitals. According to the latest estimates. 10000 buildings were destroyed It is feared that sev- eral insurance companies will fail as a result of their losses.
 The section of the city containing the handsomest structures, including the famous Buddhist temple, the larg- est in the world, was burned over. The stock exchange, the most important in the country, was destroyed, and that will tend to dislOcate business in this district The emperor is deeply con- cerned. IL is believed he will make large donations, which will be fol- lowed by others from charitable insti- tutions.

THE RECOVERED BODY
 OF CLYDE CHARLTON
SATURDAY NIGHTS VICTIM OF
 THE CANAL
1t Was Found Eight Miles Below thu
 Point Where it Was Drowned.

The Body of Clyde Charlton, the boy who was drowned in the canal east of the asylum on Saturday even ing. was found yesterday morning near the residence of Joe MOnihon. two and a half miles west of Five Points. It noated eight miles. It was recovered by Reuben Hill and a neighbor by the name of Chapman, who set out in search of it as soon as it was daylight. Engineer Howard Reed, in charge of the water distribu- tion, had ordered the water turned out of the canal as soon as he was in formed of the drowning, and the body was carried to that point with the lowering stream and was left on a high place at the mouth of the lat eral
 Deputy Sheriff Jeff Adams early in the morning resumed the search east of the city. for he had discovered an obstruction in the canal the night before which he thought would have held the body. X willow tree had lodged crosswise in the canal at the upper end of a bridge short distance west of the asylum. The branches of the tree swept under the bridge and they had caught so much debris that it seemed impossible for any object to pass.
 Yesterday morning he got men, teams from the asylum and began cutting the obstruction away. It was the work of a couple of hours. After it was done it seemed impossible for the body to have passed.
 But the force of the water had been so great that it crowded the corpse through. The effect of the passage of the body through that Ob structiOn was shown in its somewhat mutilated condition. The face was badly cut and the scalp was torn.
 The body was brought to the city and an inquest was held by Coroner Johnstone There were only two wit nesses, Mir. Hill and Thomas Cooley, a man of 90 who was with the boy when he was drowned.
 Cooley said that he and the boy went to the canal to swim. He said that while he was disrobing the boy hurriedly cast off his clothes and plunged in, swimming to the other side. He got out on the bank and Cooley said that he remonstrated with him. when the boy replied: Well, I'm on this side now and will have to swim back Cooely said that that was the last he saw of him. and when he missed him he went to the asylum and got a man to come and wade down the canal in search of the boy. It was the opinion of those present that Cooley was mistaken as to two statements: The first, that the boy swan across the canal. for there is not swimmer living who could have crossed directly in that terrific current; nor would it have been pos sible at that time for a man to wade. The water at the point where he went in was more than six feet deep: there was more water in the canal than usual: in fact, too much, for in places it had broken over on account of the obstruction below. The velocity was like that of a mill race.
 The boy was 8 years and minths of age. He lived with his mother, who had lately come from Bisbee and had rented a small ranch belonging to Cooley a short distance east of the asylum.

HILL AND HARTMAN LINES
They Are Being Pushed Forward by Forced Marches Under the Cover of Night Construction Gangs Armed For War.

Portland, Ore, Aug 1.-Another of those picturesque railroad wars that have marked the building of the west is now being waged by Hartman and Hill in the effort to build into central Oregon. Both are trying to occupy the canyon of the Deschutes river, a narrow. deep gorge that leads from Columbia river to the great saucer like plain of the interior of the state This canyon is practically a tunnel 100 miles long and the stream in many places is 2OOO feet below the summit of the surrounding hills. In places there is only room for one track be- side the stream. It is to seize these strategic points that the present war fare is being waged.
 John F. Stevens, the engineer who served for a time on the Panama canal resigning to re-enter the Hill service, is in command of the situation for those interests He is on the ground in person and long wagon trains of supplies and railroad equipment have been rushed into the Deschutes can yon The Hartman forces are also very active and contractors have worked night and. day in covering the disputed ground with workmen-
 Forced marches of construction gangs at night grading operations un- der cover of darkness, the purchase of lands that cover the approaches to the river canyon. and indeed the maneuvers of rival armies have been brought into play by the opposing forces
 The Hartman contractors built wagon road down into the canyon at a cost of almost 10000 Upon its competition. the land it crossed, which was still held by farmers. was bought by the Hill line and trespass warnings erected. Padlocked gates were put up and armed guards stood by them, preventing the Hartman people from using their own road. Springs sup plying the Hartman camps were pur- chased by the rival company and wa ter refused.
 Recently a forced march of Hill con- struction forces down the lonely mountain roads under cover of dark ness to the Deschutes river at Horse shoe Bend aroused the sleeping Harri- man camp and the engineers in charge set their men to work with picks and shoveis by lantern light to hold the survey
 Timid Italian wOrkmen. fearing trouble, have deserted the Hartman forces because of guns being carried in some instances by the opposing construction crews As yet no clash has occurred between the rival gangs but actual battles are not unlikely, as they are working within a biscuit toss of each other at several points and the attempt will be made 10 capture mar row defiles where there is room for only one track.
 The wagon road recently built by the Hartman contractors and since taken by the Hill interests. is said to he mined with blasting powder so that it can be destroyed wherever desirable. Actual conflicts are not unexpected. Indeed the battles or the North Bank road. which was completed last year, waged by the same rival interests. are still remembered. when opposing con struction forces threw lighted sticks of dynamite, destroyed each others grades and rolled rocks down moun- tain sides to block railroad building

ago is attributed to the break in prices last wek. Medium to low grades of steers declined 25 to soc fered fully as much, but it is another story today, and prices are unevenly higher, some sales 25c up. The re- bound in the market today is likely to start a more liberal movement to market before the week is over, and the strength exhibited today implies that fairly good receipts can be han dled without further losses in price. Prime fed steers sold at $7.O0, not quite the full strength of the mar ket, and yearlings are quotable up to $7.50, steady with week ago, all though full tests of the market on prime stuff are not frequent. Grass steers in the native division sell at $4.5O@6.2O; grass cows and heifers, $3.00m 4.50; canners, around s2.75; bulls, $3.OOG425; calves, S45OG7.OO; stockers, $3-5jg4S5; feeders, $4. .00@ $525.
 Mutton sheep have shown some strength in the last wek, but the lamb market is cratic and shows a lower tendency on account of the heavy run of southern lambs at east ern markets. A more settled market will prevail after a week or two, in the opinion of the traders. The run is 5000 here today; sheep steady, lambs a shade lower, some medium grade range lambs today selling at sI35, with top lambs worth around $Z75; wethers and yearlings, $5.5O; ewes, $515. Stock and feeding stuff is in demand. A few Utahs here in the last week to feeders sold at $435 and s4.50; feeding lambs worth up to $6.00, breeding ewes commanding the usual premium when quality is de- sirable; yearling ewes up to s5.75. Arizona ewes have sold recently at $425ib4.50 and Texas muttOns raised in Oklahoma went at $40

oregon is surveyed for 130 miles and S5,O00,0OO has been set aside for its construction. The Hill line is less clearly marked out as yet. When built the former road will have a water grade all the way from the wheat fields of the interior to Portland. E. H. Hartman promised this line when he was in Portland last September, and work has just been commenced. liar riman officials say the road will be built despite all obstacles.
