MARBLE CAVE DISCOVERED.
Prospectors on Upper Deer Greek
Find Winding Caverns.

Grants PaSs-C. w. Walton, miner
and prospector near Dryden, and H.
z. Perkins, ex-county surveyor, have
discovered marble cave on upper
Deer creek 25 miles south of this
place and in the vicinity of the fa-
nous Josephine county caves.
Mr.. Perkins and his companion
We're prospecting to locate several
claims for Portland firm, when they
accidentally discovered an opening to
large and unexplored regions of the
earth beneath their excavations. Lit
tie exploration work was made as one
candle was all the light they had.
The opening to the new caves is not
large, but inside are deep marble re-
cesses.
One cave is 40 feet high, and sew
eral tunnels enter from different di-
rections. A party is soon to be formed
here and with available lights the in
terror will be inspected.
In the underground passages the
bones of bear and elk were found. An
ivory spearhead five inches long, and
flint arrowhead were also found.

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE
HOP YIELD TO BE SMALL.
Oregon Raisers Will Get Enormous
Prices, Says Buyer.

Salem. -" Hop fields in the valley
are full of missing hills and the crop
this year undoubtedly will be smaller
than last year. With this in view and
the fact that in May contracts are be-
ing written for II cents, all indica-
tlons point to enormous prices for
Oregon" said James r. Linn, mem
ber of one of the best known hop firms
in the valley.
i know personally for instance, of
one man who has reset 5000 hills up
to date. Practically a third of his
yard is dead and he has always had
full stand before. Last year the crop
was not up to the consumption and
this year it will be even smaller. In
fact, there are more hills missing this
year than for many years, perhaps
than ever before. The upland yards
are bad and yards that produced well
last year show lots of hills missing.
Catlin & Linn have only so acres of
hops of their own and are heavy buy
ers, consequently this information is
considered as having weight behind it.
The situation for the grower is
better than it has been for years, j." is
the way Linn summed up the situa-
ton.

Of All Main Points.
Armistice Ordered and Diaz to Re-
sign Before June I.-De la Barra
and Madero to Rule.

Juarez, Mexico, May IS. = Judge
Carbajal, representing the Mexican
Federal government, and DR.. Vasquez
Gomez, Jose Pine Cuarez and Fran
cisco Madero, Sr., representing the
provisional government, agreed at 6
O'Clock last night to declare five
days armistice throughout Mexico, to
take effect Immediately upon receipt
by Judge Carbajal of formal authoriz-
alton from Mexico City, which came
at l l O'Clock last night.
The signing of an armistice is
military prerogative and was not in
cluded in Judge Carbajals diplomatic
instructions. There is no Federal
military commander here, General
Navarro having been deposed by the
taking of Juarez. Hence the need of
authority from Mexico City.
The armistice will be the first gen
eral cessation of hostilities since the
revolution began last November and
was decided upon by Provisional Pres
ident Madero in the afternoon i'm
mediately after the receipt of an AS
sociated Press dispatch from Mexico
City stating that President Diaz had
to resign before the end of the
present month.

CHINESE BANKER TORTURED.
Texas Report Says Rebels Dragged
Victim to Plaza and Shot Him.

Laredo, Tex.-At the end of a rope
which had been tied around his neck,
DR.. j. W. Linn, a Chinese banker, was
dragged around the plaza in Torreon,
Mexico, until his body was a mass of
broken bones and bleeding wounds, ac-
cording to reports which have Just
reached here.
From the same source of information
details of three-day battle at Tor
reon between revolutionists and Fed
erals were received. The battle is
said to have taken place May 13, IA
and Is, resulting in a rebel victory.
DR.. Lin was one of the wealthiest
Chinese in North Mexico and was at
the head of a banking institution con
trolled by Chinese capitalists. After
Linn around the plaza until

that rebels shot him several times.
He died within few minutes.

TWO PERISH FROM HEAT.
Woman Jumps From Window-Dogs
Driven Mad.

Chicago, May 17.-Chicago yester.
day sweltered through the hottest May
16 in II years-88 degrees above at /
o'clock. As result, two persons are
dead. There were numerous prostra-
tions and intense suffering from the
humidity which precedes rain storms
which have threatened for several days
but have not materialized.
Anton Erickson, employed in a
foundry, dropped unconscious from
the heat and died on the way to a
hospital. James Bevington, a travel
ing salesman, died at his home from
the heat Several men fell victims in
the streets and one woman, crazed by
the heat, leaped from a second-story
window, but escaped serious injury.
Evanston was menaced by dogs
driven mad by heat and the police in
that suburb and the northwest section
of Chicago were ordered to shoot all
unmuzzled dogs.
The sudden excess of heat is pulling
up the temperature of the lake and the
bathing beaches were crowded all day
and evening. The parks and other
breathing spots were densely populat-
ed all day. The quick arrival of sum
mer has caught the public unprspared
and is causing much suffering. With
in month Chicago was enveloped in
a blizzard which brought snow, ice
and heavy frosts.

PRUNE RETURNS BRIGHT.
Willamette Valley Fruitmen Discuss
Conditions.

Salem Members of the pool of the
Willamette Valley Prunegrowers as
sociation met Wednesday in this city,
a good representation of the principal
growers of this section being present
to consider market and crop conditions
of the prunes of this section.
A full report of the market condi-
tions of the world was presented by
the management, showing the pros
poets to be good for the marketing of
the present growing crop. Letters
from representatives. in the principal
fruitgrowng sections of Europe were
read. These reports indicate that the
stocks of dried fruit there are light.
Reports from the large centers of this
country, are along the same line. A
late report from California was read
which indicates the outside estimate
of the prune crop there to be 1926, ,00O,-
600.
This is considerably less than the
estimate of two weeks ago. A gen
eral canvass of the growers in regard
to the local prune crop now growing,
showed various estimates from 40 to
rs per cent of full crop, or an OUT
side average of so per cent. The hill
of this section, where usually
the largest crops of prunes are OBJ
tained, are showing light this season,
the main crops being on the lower
land and these are spotted But with
a medium crop and good prices indica-
lions are the crop will show much
better returns than is generally re-
'eived from the larger crops, owing to

While hanging up a large bunch of
Panama bananas Mr.. Boscamp saw
the tarantula. Dropping the bananas,
he got fruit jar and began the fight

president of the Alaska Steamship
company, today cabled to Agent Bar
ry, at Cordova, instructing him to sup
ply to the cruiser Buffalo enough Can
adian coal to enable her to steam to
Sitka. The Buffalo, ran short of coal
during stormy cruise to the Northern

AEROPLANES FILL AIR.
Exhibition Stage Past; Passenger Ma
chimes Common,

Paris-The one thing to be deduced
from the principal event for the ap-
preaching aeroplane season is that the
day of the circus" meeting has gone
not to return. Public and aviator
alike are tired of circling around the
derricks of an aerodrome.
The timid futters of two years ago
have been succeeded by long rambles
from town to town. The practical ap-
plieation of the aeroplane is in sight.
for machines have been constructed
capable of carrying 10 or IL passen-
gers.
A dozen schools in France are turn
ing out pilots every day in addition to
the list of more than 200 on the regis
ters of the Aeronautical federation.
To provide field for the ambition of
these young birds, three great races
have been arranged.
The first in date and possibly also in
difficulty, is that organized by the
Petit Parisien from Paris to Madrid
Avlators have to pass, according to
the rules issued by the organizers, for
a distance of 60 to 80 kilometers over
mountains nearly 1900 feet high.
This race is endowed by the Petit
Parisien with prize of $4,000 to the
winner In addition, the Spanish Aero
club gives prizes of $40, 900.
The second big event is the Paris to
Rome and Turin flight, scheduled for
Nay 28. The prizes will total $780,,
100.
June will see the European circuit
aces from Paris to London and re-
urn. The flight will be begun on
une a and occupy probably two weeks.
The prizes aggregate $801, 900, and
Llready have attracted many entries.

Stone Bowl Unearthed.

Eugene = While grubbing out a
stump on his ranch south of here sew
eral days ago, w. w. Conner un-
earthed a heavy stone bowl, such as
was used by the Indians for grinding
grain and roots. The old vessel was
buried several feet deep, at the foot
of the stump. The bowl is about 80
inches in diameter and 10 inches high.
1t weighs almost so pounds, and is
carved, or ground, out of hard blue
flint. Old settlers say they have seen
similar vessels in use among the In
dians, who used them as mortars in
In spite Of the hardness Of
the material the old vessel is remark
ably symmetrical.

Pendleton-l Installing an individual
electric light and power plant.
Spencer M. Bentley, prominent
wheatgrower six miles north of Pen
dleton, has supplied his place with
most modern farm equipment. A ten
horse power gasoline engine generates
an ample supply of electricity. Forty
lights supply the illumination needed
for dwelling, barns and sheds, while
conveniently arranged motors pump
his water, cut his feed, saw his wood
turn the grindstone and run all the
other farm machinery.

FLIES 100 MILES PER HOUR.
American Aviator Breaks Record for
Speed in AeropIane.

Rheims-Speed records, with and
without passenger, were twice beat
en- here in remarkable monoplane
flights. A speed of more than 100
kilometers (99.5 miles, an hour was
attained in the first flight by the
American aviator, Henry E. Weyman.
He started from Mournmelon with
Count Robillard as a passenger. A
strong wind, almost amounting to a
gale, caused the machine to plunge in
a terrifying manner with wild sweeps,
the height constantly varying from 80
to 300 feet.
Later Lieutenant Fequant, in a new
monoplane, Lieutenant Biey acting as
observation officer, made flight over
the same course under same condi-
tions. This flight was without inter
ruption apd the distance was complet-
ed in 10 minutes and 20 seconds, a
speed Of 1862 kilometers (1O0.7 miles)

PRISON CONTRACT MADE.
Stove Foundry May Use But 200
Convict Workers.

Salem-After several weeks of dis
agreement the differences between
Governor West and Loewenberg, Co
ing & Co. have finally been settled
and a new contract drawn up between
the company and the state Under the
new contract the company has a limit
of 200 men who may be employed in
the stove foundry at the state peni-
tentiary.
Under the old contract it was possi-
bic for the company to use all of the
men in the prison excepting those ne
cessary for the state to use about the
buildings. Under the new plan the
governor will be able to requisition all
of the extra convicts for road work.
The working time has also been cut
from a ten-hour day to a nine-hour
day, and provision is made in the con-
tract that the company must provide
space in its buildings for lavatories
and baths so that the men will be
clean when they attend their meals.
A number of minor changes have been
made as well, relating to fire protec-
tion and incidental matters in connec-
tion with the shops.
The only bone of contention remain
ing is as to payment for ID convicts
who have been employed daily around
the shops without remuneration to the
state. The governor has insisted on
payment for these, while the company
refuses, asserting there has been a
distinct understanding that the men
were to be used in caring for the
shops and keeping them in shape for
he benefit of the state and it is de-
'lared that no money will ever be paid
or them unless the state sues and sue
recovers.

PendIeton Alfalfa High.

Pendleton-Alfalfa stems measuring
three feet four incehs high were taken
May from the 40-acre field of M. C.
Barragar, near town. The land on
which this was grown was covered
with sage brush three years ago. Two
years ago it was seeded and now it is
conceded to be one of the best fields of
alfalfa in the country. AS rule the
growth of alfalfa has not been as rank
this year as last. This is due to the
cold weather experienced

Berries Late But Good.

Hood Rivera year ago Thursday
the Hood River Fruitgrowers' union
shipped the first carload of strawber-
RES for the season. The cool weather
of the past two weeks this year, how
ever, has held the crop back, and If il
probable that no extensive shipments
will be made until June l. DESPITE
this fact berry pickers are beginning
to arrive and pitch their tents on the
river flats below the city.
The Hood River crop this season
will be of fine quality. Estimates of
the crop run from 1000 to rs, 600
crates.

Wool Revenue is Needed

Washington, D. C.-House leaders
are gratified that they are out of the
woods on the wool revision question.
The ways and means committees de-
cision is that the revised wool sched-
ule will not place raw wool on the
free list, but will cut the existing
rates from II cents pound to 5 or 6
cents pound or its equivalent in an
ad valorem reduction. Leaders in
each delegation were told that it was
impossible to cut off the $21, 900, 900
in revenue from raw wool and were
asked to poll their delegations.

Banker Must Serve Time.

Washington, D. C.-In committing
the sentence of J. B. Feeney, cashier
of the First National bank of Fayette-
vile, Tenn, who pleaded guilty to
embezzlement, President Taft has de-
cided that Feeney must serve some
time in jail, even though he has to un-
dergo a course of medical treatment
to strengthen himself for the ordeal.
Feeney was sentenced to five years.
He is SO years old and said to be i'll.
Physicians testified that a long i'm
would be fatal. Taft com
muted his sentence to 4 months.

WOMEN FAVOR PRISONER.
Alleged Dynamiters Receive Daintes
in Jail.

Los Angeles Women, not alone in
the working class, but many of the
wealthy and aristocratic order, have
been showering flowers, books, CANDY
and other dainties upon j. j. McNam-
ara, who on Sunday was again the re-
cipient of a number of floral offerings
some of them being sent anonymously
from sentimental persons.
Each day of late the prisoner has
received books and flowers from var
ious sources, and numerous letters
from Eastern friends and acquain-
tances and labor leaders, all assuring
him of the writers belief in his in
nocence, and their willingness to do
all they can to help him prove it.
j. B. Mcnamara, while not included
in these professions of friendship to
as great an extent as his brother, has
received quite few letters pledging
him support in his defense.
Ortie McManigal's correspondence
seems to be limited to an occasional
letter from his wife. His only Wis
ltors are members of the Burns detec-
tive agency, who each day bring him
cigars, fruit and other luxuries.
Both the McNamaras, continue in
