,anment before a fair sized audience, AT

posng the troupe are, each in his calling,
among the best Of their class. The vocalism
could not be excelled. The solo singing of

earned applause. The song and dance artists

Business is booming at the cotton factories

Last evening Denman Thompson delighted
a large audience in Granite Hall. The old
New England farmer, although he has been
'the rounds" year after year, was as great a
favorite as ever. Uncle Josh was the same
honest. dare to do right and home
like individual that again and again
has charmed Augustus amusement goers.
The play has held the stage for more than a
dozen years, and still continues to attract the
largest audiences in every city of the United
States. Without the slightest attempt at the
bombast or clap-traps which abound in so
many of the sensational dramas of the dav,
he produces the greatest effect by his simple,
natural acting, and that artistic self-restraint
which never overdoes. but produces in the
spectator the impression of reserved strength.
There is very little change in the fashion
Of mems clothing, this autumn. Four button
getaways are still the correct thing. Panta-
looms are looser. Vests are worn of a med-
um height with collars except in rough
goods, when no collars are worn. Some
dress suits are made of fine diagonal, bnt the
majority are of broadcloth with three button
vests very low. In frock suits. the coats are
brttoned very high, and the skirts are rather
short, just covering the knee. Cork-screw
and diagonals are mostly used. In rough
goods double breasted pea jackets with silk
acings are worn and are made to fit very
c.n
tapering crown. The brim is not so broad
and curs into the crown. Brown is preferred
to black. Shoes are not so pointed at the
toes. Handkerchief have fancy borders.
Collars are worn standing and hiyh

Salmon.

The market IS in a much better coli
dition, and there is more hopeful ex-
preston adorning the countenances Of
packers, dealers and brokers, than We
have been able to note for long time.
Salmon which, il is claimed, was last
week offered for 81, cannot be had
.his week for less than Sl.O5. This
stiffening OF prices is due to a belief
which is generally entertained that
the coast pack this year, notwith-
standing the large pack on the CO.
lumbia, will fall short of that of
previous years. This belief is founded
upon the reports and rumors which
are rife, bespeaking a short catch on
the Fraser river, which, it IL said,
will not exceed 5000 cases. The
catch in Alaskan waters, it IS said,
will not aggregate more than 90 per
cent of the average catch, while 1t is
confidently believed that the catch on
the Sacramento will make no better
showing. The short run on the Fraser
river will necessitate large draft upon
the stock held elsewhere, as four YES
sells have been chartered to take the
fish, and it will be necessary to pro-
vide them with carcoes. The small
catch will also, it is claimed, extend
to, and include. ali the outside rivers.
Another reason for the Improvement
noted in prices is found In the dispo-
sitiOn manifested by English buyers
to finally take hold. Events have
justified the action of English pur-
chasers this year in buying for actual
needs instead of purchasing futures
largely, in accordance with their
former custom. Had they pursued
this year the old policy, they would
find themselves now in a bad position.
The effect of this experience will prob
ably affect the policy of English pur-
chasers for years to come. On the
Sacramento river the run is very light,
and not much is being done at the
canneries. The price of raw fish has
been reduced, and Gamers are paying
fishermen 20 cents per fish. The fish
are said to be very large. The season
is a disappointed one to Gamers.
They usually look for about twenty
days Of heavy work, but up to the
present time they have had but one or
two days Of it. The Capital Packing
Company has contracted its entire
fall pack at 81 per dozen Lib tins.
The market being IN a state of transi-
ton, it is matter of imposslbility to
present any satisfactory quotations.
Packers are at variance as regards
prices, some holding at one figure and
some at another. Cal. Grocer aud

build the road and endesvor to have
it so ordered that the grant shall be
forfeited. Should that come to pass
and should the grant revert
to the public domain, should all
things se as though the grant
we're not, and all title of the o. & T.
be abrogated the question would still
arise, who would build the roadl 1t
mu st be remembered that there is not
the remotest probability that the
grant can ever be transferred to any
other corporation. If forfeited, it
will go back as public land, and can
not be taken into account other than
as of attraction to settlers and pur-
chasers. As matters stand who ever
builds the road must be able to have
an understanding with Willard, for he
controls the road from Forest Grove
to the country which Astoria would
reach. 1t is complicated problem
and time alone will solve IL.

snatches from disappointment the sin
ews of success, Astoria turned up a
bright face to the sun of Friday
morning and welcomed the journals
tic party with thorQugh-going hospi-
tality. While certainly it was very
provoking not to have been able to
entertain President Willard and his
personal party. We may be permitted
to hint to our friends at the mouth of
the Columbia that in extending hos
pitalities to the scribes mot pharisees)
of the last spike party they have taken
no little risk of entertaining angels

But the main question which sug-
gests itself is-lf Willard with his ex-
tensive construction plant finds no
profit in building the road at the best
figure the o. & I. company can
afford, can any other man or set of
menl
There would seem to be but one
answer and that is-No. The accep-
tance Of the proposition by anyone
would mean financial disaster to the
protector and a handsome profit to
Nr. Willard and associates and none
know that better than he.
1t is conceded that the road would
cost S23, 800 a mile; the $4,000
which he would pay per mile in o. &
7. bonds represent to-day cash value
far enough below par to show that no
responsible party would accept the
offer that Mr.. Willard makes in his
answer as psblished. Were the
bonds at par, the matter might be
considered, but in the opinion OF
THE AsToRIAN the telegram is vir-
tual refusal to entertain the supposi-
tional proposition sent him.
To us-of Clatsop county and ada
cent territory the question is an I'm
portant Que. We have Willard
ultimatum. There remains but TIVE
courses-either build the road our
selves; subscribe for the interest bear
ing bonds he offers, make a pool
build the road, or-adhere to tn
same course which has been held to a
along; assert and make manifest tina
the grant is worth what it viii cost {

The charge of manslaughter
against VIM. r. Acock, who killed
James Morey in the faro rooms. back
of the Cosmopolitan saloon about six
weeks ago, was ignored by the grand
jury yesterday. The reason assigned
seems to be that after weighing the
evidence thoroughly that body thought
that it would be almost impossible,
from the uncertain character of the
testimony TO obtain a conviction and
that it would be useless to put the
county to the expense ef trial. -
