tlx Kuiilt Mill. Poktland, Dee. iS. Suit was brought in United States court today to have the Multnomah county claim of $150,000 against the Oregon 'National Bank made a preferred one. The Oldest Mason Head.

Sax Dihgo, Dec. 28. Samuel McKoon, father of Hosper 1'. McKoon, president of tho San Diego chamber of commerce, died ut Fanita ranch, his son's residence, this morning at the ago of 01. He had been prominent in politics in New York and was judgo of the surrogate court.

Ho was made a Freemason in 1833, and is supposed to be the oldest Mason in the United States. I I I DECEMBER, 1893. Want a Cook, Want a Situation, Want a Salesman, Want a Servant Girl, Want to Hire any Help, Want to Rent a Store, Want an Agent or Partner, Want to Buy or Sell a Farm, Want to Buy or Sell a House, Want to Hire or Rent a House, Want a Good Boarding House, Want to Buy or Sell a Carriage, Allany Demociat: Tho question of a new receiver was taken up. The judge remarked that he had appolMtcd Air. Dudley.

In the first place, on his own behalf in his fitness for the i-oji-tion. Do admitted that Mr. Hartley had committed many errors, but attributed them to his legal and other advisers. Admitted that the road had run behind every month sinco he took charge of it. Said that he (lid not believe any one could operate it without loss.

That ho thought Air. Dudley could and would operate it as economically as any one. That In the matter of attorney's fees anil expenses there had been extravagance. That it should not occur again. That lie was of the opinion that it would be better to close the road down, but that the strong sentiment against such a course prevented this action.

In conclusion he said that he did not know what was tho best course to pursue and had consulted others aud that they were as much at sea as himself. His decision was that he would hold tho question of Mr. Dudley's removal uuder consideration until February 1, and give him time to make full and eompleto reports of the financial condition of tho receivership. We are not advised what tho men intend to do, but understand they feel that the judgo has Ignored their wishes so completely that there is nothing further to be looked from him. If tho men were willing to take the chance of operating the road under Mr.

Miller aud not under Mr. Hartley, and were willing to take tho receipts whatever they might be, we can see no good reason for not complying with their request. It must be that there Is some reason behind this action of tho jndgo's which is not apparent to the ordinary observer. Tlie Kalian Cyclone. Toi'CKA, Dee.

28. Mrs. Lease has been removed as a member of the state board of charities. us by giving them the BEST LEAST POSSIBLE price. Very respectfully, Result of tlie Hawaiian lnvesli- Will lie Very I-iirrcncliliifr.

Washington, Dec. 28. The air of mystery assumed by the senate committee on foreign relations in its Hawaiian investigation gives tho Impression that Morgan's resolution, under which the inquiry Is held, is merely a cloak for much more important Inquiry limn any as to tho alleged irregularity of our diplomatic relations with those islands. There is reason for believing that while piesunuibly tho present quest is for information bearing upon the conduct of Stevoas and ltlount there will be an effort at tho same time to obtain any information which will in the llrsl plaea prove tho capability of tlio islands for self-government, and in tho second the desirability or otherwise of annexing these islands at somo time in tlio future. It Is understood perfectly by tlio mom- bom of tho committee who might have these in view that there is no hopo of annexing tlio islands under tho present administration, but those who favor this disposition of tlio little king dom do not intend to bo swerved from their purpose by tho fact that one administration is opposed to this course.

Senator Morgan, chairman of tlie committee, has been scrupulously care ful about expressing opinions upon tho Hawailim question, or manifesting a disposition to do or say nothing which would appear extra judicial, but ho Is known to bo a firm beliover in the wis dom of attaching tho islands to this country us part of it, just as Alaska is at present attached, and tho fact that ho has very recently introduced a bill In tho senate providing a form of gov ernment for any acquired territory lends plausabillty to tho supposition that ho Is looking forward to possibili ties far beyond anything included In the resolution under wliich tho committee is authorized to conduct Us present hearing. As a plausible explanation of tho origin of tho hill, and without some end like the acquisition of Hawaii, it Is dllllcult to find any reason for existence. Those who know Morgan best say bo is not the mau to attempt to secure legislation that would fit a supposition. It would ap pear that when tho committee reports it will, so far as Morgan can direct tho character of tho report, smooth over the events with which they aro con cerned. Meantime Minister Thurston, now in Hawaii, will have been heard from as to Iho capacity of tho present government for temporarily managing tho affairs of the Islands, and the Information with tlio corroborating testimony which tlie commlttco will be able to get together In the meantime may have an important bearing upon the future of tlio committee's investigations.
