"Who's there?" Marshal Dilley told him to come to the door, as he wanted to talk to him. The Chinaman soon opened the door, and desired to know what was wanted. Marshal Dilley told him to strike a light, as he wanted to talk to him.

at the same time exposing is star and saying: "I am an officer, the city marshal at Salem." The Chinaman's reply was. "you get out," at the same time he struck the marshal, staggering him backward. Hut the marshal grablted the Chinaman's wrist, and as he continued to light and struggle Officer Uuourette struck him with his gun. The Chinaman then broke away and burst out of the back door at full speed. The Statesman man was st lading about thirty foot from the door and having heard tlie blows and struggles, mine to the conclusion that the Chinaman wanted had been found.

As the Cui-mituau burst out of the door there was a grim suggestion iu his wild efforts to get away of the possibility of I-ut-ouretto and Dilley having met hi his hands the same knife thai killed the WiMiiait.

A shot was tired over his head, but Its only visible effect was to If It were possible aeoel-lenite his speed, and then as he reached the shadows two bullets went singing past his ears, but before another one could be tired the Chinaman dashed into the brush and out of sight. When the Chinaman broke loose from the marshal Latourette, with "stunted discretion and stall-fed grit" dashed after him, only to lie caught by the cool-headed marshal and flung clear of the door.

Motive Toyo made a picture to turn strong men sick and faint with horror, and yet, inspire them with that tender pttlfulness the strong always feel when they see the weak ami helpless beaten to the earth. The murderer must have done his work In the dare. No la nips nor caudles were In the front or reception room (Xo.

The girl's toe-el ippors, Japanese basket-work affairs were found there, widely soparated, as though they had dropped from her feet in her frantic struggle with Iter assailant, and on the north wall and on the base board of the east wall in that corner, were the bloody imprints of her small hands besides splotches of gore that looked as though they had spurted there. Aside from these evidences there was nothing to Innoken any violout encounter. The room anil all It con tained was in good order. Nothing was torn, nor overturned.

Nothing to tell the rale of murder save the pool of blood that the worn carpet in the corner behind the hearing stove, where slie must have falleu beneath the savage blows and thrusts of tiie man that slaved her. When lie had fled and left her to die she undoubtedly used her remaining strength in an effort to get to the kitchen where she hoped, perhaps to And the Chinaman who did her cooking, or at least to get out and cud some succor in her awful plight, but Bhe could have found no one of her own household for she was alone, and the police were only preceded to the eene of her distress by a neighbor 1 1 f. i t. -i nM0 1 1.. Chinaman who was too badly soared to render her any practical service.

She had risen to her feet In the effort and only stink to her knees as the officers appeared. The wounds that wrought her death were disfiguring in tlie last degree and must have been administered by a strong and vicious hand. They were long and deep and deadly. One terrible slash reached nearly from her back bone at the nape of the neck around and along her left Jaw bone for a distance of fully six Inches, while her right cheek was laid open with a cut at least one half that length, but the fatal wounds were in her throat. One short, deep slash had severed the right jugular and another deeper and longer, had cut in twain her windpipe; her right wrist was slightly cut also, and her right hand told the story of her one impotent effort to save herself from butchery, for along its palm and across the inner joints of the fingers were regular, parallel outs that must have been done when she seized the weapon tbi was rfoinff her to death.

She clutched her throat wildly closing the wounds and did her best to the words that should reval the iuentity of the fiend who iad so desperately assaulted her, but he could only shake her head in a negative way in answer to the chiefs repeated inquiry. He then asked her if "it was a white manr and she again gave a distinct negative sign. but in response to the query "was it a Chinaman'" she gave an affirmative -nod. repeating it so persistently that no doubt was left in the minds of the "officers as to the accuracy of this important morsel of information.

THE ASSASSIN ESCAPES. The assassin, whoever may lie, was no doubt familiar wiih the promises.

He escaped by way of the back yard and the alley that runs north and beneath the dry tire-bell tower, to the west and In the roar of the Fashiou stables. During the hubbub created by the alarm, he was seen to dash out of this alley on Court street and across that thoroughfare, for the alley beyond. Schuyler Kightliuger. who was ooming west ou Court street in his buggy, heard tlie screams of the wom an, tlie police call and the various sounds that were given out in the alarm, and noted the fight of the scoundrel across the street in front of his team. He immediately set up a shout of "Stop him! stop and pointed toward the flying wretch as he dan lied in the alley on the north side of Court street, where It passes alongside of A.

Basey, who was sitting in the office door reading a paper. dropieil the sheet on hearing Kightlinger's cry and started up the alley in pursuit of the fugitive, whom he overtook and seized, but the desperate scoundrel turned on him with a knife or gun, Scott could not tell which in the black darkness of the shadowed alley, and be was compelled to relinquish his hold having nothing with him which would put him on anything like equal terms witn tne cniuaman, who, as soon as he felt himself free, fled on down the alley, leaving and turning east in the rear of the new city halL This was the List that was seen of him in the city, but Keort.

in his plucky endeavor to capture the fiend got a good enough look at him to lie able to pretty surely identify him when the time comes. He says the Chinaman asked In first rate English "What do you want?" when lie grablied him, and the clearness of tlie sieeeh, and his thick set person and broad, dark yellow-skinned face are indellby impressed on the brave young fellow's memory. WAS IT JEALOUSY. The motive of tlie crime, as nearly as the data at band justifies a conclusion, is jealousy. The man who is supposed to have done the deed, and whom the police are trailing vvirh all the skill and ren.iurces at their command.

Is a Chinaman, well known in Salem and the community just north and east of the city, who. for over a year ast. has been a persistent, but constantly rejected admirer of the dead woman. It is believed his jealous fury culminated hist night in the fearful crime here chronicled, and many patent facts in tlie possession of ho K)lice go to stipiwrt the theory'- Hobljcry bad no place in the affair, as there is simply nothing ou tlie surface or even suggested that upholds such an Idea. That it was tlie quick.

Insane and ruthless puMahin of a maddened and disordered mind. disturlK-d by some such dreadful inipuUe, Is almost certain. HUNTING THE FUGITIVE. City Marshal Dllley, fully convinced that the Chinese murderer had gone north, )eing reliably informed that a Chinaman who had been the murdered woman's lover, lived in the neighborhood of Swans' mill, secured a team and in company with Officer Iitourette and a Statesman reporter started north. At Nolf's more It was learned that two Chinamen, one of whom answered the description given by Dave Scott, lived somewhere near the mill.

Nobody being at home, they proceeded to near the mill, where in quiries were made, am! It was learned flint two Chinamen lived on the Fletcher place. After learning the exact location of the house, the party pro ceeded back to within three hundred yards of it and then secured the team.

They then proceeded quietly to the building, which is almost surrounded by thick brush. The two officers went to tlie front door and Marshal Dilley ordered the Statesman man to guard the rear, so as to prevent possible escape in that direction. "When Marshal Dilley went to the front door, he felt that the man who committed the murder was within his ond, Woods third, Davis fourth.

STATE FAI ENDED AND THE MANAGEMENT IS WELL SATISFIED AT THE KE8ULT.

A Oraad Conoart During the Evening Hours in tha Pavilion-Other Notes. The last day of the fair was one of the very best in all respects and elieed what is universally called the most successful fair held In Oregon In fifteen years the most successful In point of exhibits and general public Interest. The officers of the fair of 1805 have done their work conscientiously and zealuosly. With oil tlie difficulties to be overcome they have succeeded admirably and can well be proud of the result. The superintendents in the several departments to whose hard labor the presentable appearance of the exhibits is due are entitled to unstinted praise, as there has lieen no time in the hisiory of such exhibits when they looked so well.

C. W. Watts, who bad charge of Linn county's sample products, can well return home with expectations of congratulation from his friends in Albany; so can Messrs. Warren, HoMis ami others from Yamhill county; so also can Mr. Weeks; who had charge of the dairy exhibit, and so in fact can all of those who had responsibilities In directing and caring for the in tlie several departments.

1'erhaps to no Individual has more praise been given behind her back than to Mrs Win. Molson, (nee Nesiuithl superintendent of tlie art department, who managed the difficult task of placing those numerous contrlbu.ltns of the pencil and tlie brush so as to give each one lis most appropriate place and at the same produce the Iwst general effect. Kverylxsly says this department was peculiarly well arranged and conducted this year. The work of the judges brought forth less complaint than usual, the fact being recognized that intelligence and fair play were the guiding rules In all decisions. There is general satisfaction at the fair throughout, the greatest objection being to the gate charge of U0 cents.

The progress and advancement made this year In many respects will encourage the hoard so that next year still greater pleasures will be in store for the public mid any mistakes of management this year will be so corrected that even the most chronic kickor will subside into smiles of satisfaction.
