Theiving Fishermen.

The1vfng flSnermen.
ASTORIA, June l6.-As the fishing sea-
son approaches it's close, the river pirates
among the fishermen are beginning to show
their hands. A night or two since four
Greeks forcibly took possession of net be-
longing to two Scandinavians. Their boats
drifted on Sand island, where the Greeks
attacked the other men with knives anil re-
volvers. One named Mettlin was stabbed
in the left side and on the right shoulder,
and was shot in two places with revolver.
The Greeks got away with the net, and
Carlson, Mettlin's partner. brought the
wounded man to the Astoria hospital, where
he now lies in critical condition.
To-day news comes that Salvo, fisher
man, finding his boat in the breakers; cut
his net to save his life. Three Russian
Firms picked up the drifting net in sight of
Salvo and his boat puller. Salvo demanded
his net, offering the Firms all the salmon
caught in it. Their refusal to give it up
led to an attempt to take it by force, which
resulted in Salvo and his man being thrown
overheard, and one Finn receiving gunshot
wound. The men thrown overheard were
picked up by another boat.
The Report to be Modified
WASHINGTON, June l7.-Charles Francis
Adams, representing the Union Pacific
railroad, with the chief bookkeeper of the
company, had aninterview to-day with the
secretary of the interior and the commits
sioner of railroads in regard to the report
upon the financial condition of the COM
pany, prepared by agents of the road and
bureau for transmission to the Judiciary
committees of the senate and house. The
company claims the associated report did
not correctly represent the financial condi-
tiou. The secretary, upon hearing their
arguments, decided that the report should
in some respects be modified.

It will be remembered that during
the greater part of his term in the
state department Blaine was watching
at the couch of the wounded Garfield,
and that nothing in the shape of paper
could be signed by his dying friend.
During the six months he was in the
state department Blaine, because of
Garfeld's assassination, gave little or
no attention to his duties. Some of
the democratic leaders are doubtful of
pushing these records, and calling at
tention to the pathetic features Of
Blaine's attendance at Garield's bed
side, as it may startsa boom in the
wrong direction, especially as there is
little doubt, if Garfield had lived, that
Blaine would have raised a great
breeze over the imprisonment Of
American sus poets in England.

There is no time since the war when
the democratic party presented more
bankrupt appearance than it does
since Tilden declines the nomination
for president. What the party intends
to do under this bereavement is not
yet known. 1t has a miscellaneous
assortment of candidates in reserve,
such as Ben Butler, Cleveland,
Bayard, Thurman and others, not one
of whom in any aense can be regarded
as wonder-worke s. There is clearly a
dearth of men and principles, and time
may lead to curious results. The dem
ocrats have for some years professed to
have a political wonder in the pei son of
S. J. Tilden, but since his positive re-
fusal to accept the nomination they are
like ship at sea with broken rudder.
In his letter he says "the presidency
b Is no illusion for him." The posi-
ton he has taken, although somewhat
unique, is evidently candid.

The Mexican Treaty.

WASHINGTON, June lin the report
accompanying the bill to carry into effect
the Mexican treaty, prepared by Hewitt
and reported from the ways and means
committee to-day, the committee says it has
been feared the sugar industry of Louisiana
might be unfavorably effected by the free
admission of the raw Mexican sugar, and
that the profits of tobacco culture might
ultimately in the same way be effected.
When it is considered that Mexico at pres
ent does not raise sufficient sugar for its
own use, and that its tobacco is of quality
which does not interfere with the product of
the United States, but, on the contrary,
would advantageously supplement it and
replace tobacco which is now imported from
Cuba, the objection therefore arises rather
from apprehension in the development of
Mexico in the production of those two
articles than from any considerable i'm
portation at the present time The pros
pect of interference is evidently too remote
to weigh against the advantages which will
accrue to the United States from the ad-
mission of our manufactures, free of duty
into Mexico.
Mexico is the gate through which this
country will find its connection with the
Central and South American states. The
time has already arrived when we must
adopt the continental policy of laying the
foundation broad and deep, in mutual in
terests and intimate commercial and political
sympathies. The Monroe doctrine must be
asserted, and enforced. 1t is essential for
our safety, as well as our growth, that we
shall exercise controlling influence on the
affairs of the western world. 1t may not be
desirable that we should extend the limit of
our sovereignty beyond our own borders,
but every measure which tends to establish
closer relations with our neighbors, to
create mutual interests, to develop common
hope and sympathies. and to tie us more
closely together in support of the principles
of free government and progress of human
liberty should be encouraged. 1t is for this
reason that the treaty with Mexico marks
an era in the progress of the western world.

Caution appears to characterize the
actions of all New York business men
now: Few ventures are making other
than legitimate, and the general mer-
chandise markets therefore present
rather quiet appearance. Many be-
lieve that the trade of the summer
months will be greater than usual, but
with the political campaign in prospect
it is doubtful if, material improve
ment in the business situation will
occur until the excitement has subsiden
and fall requirements manifest them
selves.

The Direct War Tax.

WASHINGTON, June l7.-Secretary Fol-
ger to-day sent letter to the house COM
mittee on claims, recommending favorable
reports on all bills designed to return the
direct war tax of 1861 to those states and
territories that had levied it. He enclosed
letter from First Comptroller Lawrence,
in which the legality of the proposed mea-
sures to refund this money was affirmed.
Mr. Lawrence thinks congress ought to re-
pay all money collected by tax, and release
those states which are still in arrears. Two
bills are now pending before congress, one
by Henley and one by Miller, relating to
money due the Pacific coast. Under the
report made by Secretary Folger, there are
due the following amounts: California
S247, ,94l, Nevada $4592, Oregon S35, 40.
The propriety of making the recommends
tion not only received the sanction of the
secretary of the treasury and Comptroller
Lawrence, but was recently the subject of
action by the entire cabinet. Several mill
ion dollars will be required to pay what is
due John Mullen, attorney for the states
and territories to whom these amounts are
due, says none of the bills will probably
pass this session, but that next winter all
will be acted on favorably.
WASHINGTON, June l7.-Secretary Teller
has modified the government exports re-
port on the Union Pacific company, and the
officials of the road now declare themselves
better satisfied. The point of difference is
understood to be that the experts failed to
place among the assets certain amounts due
the company. Counsel for the railroad, it
is said, convinced Secretary Teller that
these sums are clearly assets, hence the
modification. The reports as modified will
be considerably more favorable to the road
than the original draft.

That would of course give the cleo
tion to the Republicans. The indus
tries and products called into action in
these states, IN favor of the Republi-
cans, will be general manufactures,
wool, coal, fruits, wine, borax, olive
oil, raisins, quicksilver, sugar, silk,
lumber. Reducing the whole question
to the ultimate analysis, It may be said
that the Republicans can win either
with New York or the Pacific States.
But the Democrats cannot win without
New York. Nobody, it may be said,
ever knows how the last mentioned
State is going. It seems to take a
delight in killing off the political
prophets. The individuals who pro-
fess to be able to carry it never do; at
least this always appears when a
chance is offered to measure thei"
alleged powers. f. Bulletin. .

issue in 1880, but even in that shape
it is supposed TO have largely con-
tributed to the defeat of the Democrats.
The indications are that it will exercise
a more potent influence in the struggle
before u.s. Large masses of Working
men are alarmed at the prospect of
reduction of their wages to the
European standard, as consequence
of the free trade proclivities of the
Democrats, provided they should gain
supreme power This issue is large
enough to be decisive of the contest.
But there is not the least use in specu-
lating now as to the exact effect that
it is going to have in the present
alignment of parties. The Republi
cans, however, naturally expect large
accessions to their ranks from Demo-
cratic artivans and laborers every
where.
There is certain to be much chang
ing about. Georgia is not nearly SO
rampant about Free Trade since she
began to manufacture cotton. A
change of sentiment of like character
is observable in the Carolinas Louis
lana has long had a strong tendency in
the same direction. The Democratic
majority in Florida is very small and
declining Northern people are fllino
up the State. The Malone detection
has weakened Bourbonism in Virginia.
On any fair survey of the "situation'
it must be conceded that the Demo
cratic party is not nearly so we'll con
solidated in the South as it was in 1880
But there is a number of States upon
which it can still confidently reckon
They are appended with their elec
torial votes:

At meeting of the house com
mittee on appropriations recently, the
following resolutions, offered by Ran
dali, was adopted, as an amendment to
the general deficiency bill, by vote of
6 to 3, a party vote of those present:
''That no senator, representative, or
delegate in congress, or senator rep
resentative or delegate elect, and no
officer, clerk or employee of the United
States, or any department, branch or
bureau thereof, or any person receiving
any salary or compensation from
moneys derived from the treasury of
the United States, or any contractors
under the United States government,
shall give or hand over to any person
or persons, directly or indirectly, any
money or other valuable thing, on ac-
count of or to be applied to the pro-
motion of any political object what
ever; that any person guilty of vio-
lation of this provision shall be guilty
of misdemeanor, and shall, on con-
viction thereof, be punished by fine
of not exceeding $4,000, or imprison-
ment not exceeding a term of three
years, or by both fine and imprison-
ment, in the discretion of the court.

The rapid payment of the national
debt is something marvellous, and
shows what mighty resources the
American people possess. It is now
seventeen years and little over since
the debt reached it's highest figures.
On July l, 1866, it was $2,773,236,-
1889. At the end Of II I've years,
under the benefcent public fnanceer-
ing by the republican party, it had
been reduced, July l, 1878, $5l7, ,o2o,-
28l.16, leaving the standing liability
still over 100000, ,OOO-s2, 1885,
215,S92.53. On July l, 1888, it had
been half met and a larger reduction
made in its interest rate. In twenty
years the great debt contracted for the

WASHINGTON, June l6.-In the senate
this morning Slater offered several amend
ments to the house river anil harbor bill, by
which the appropriations were r.ised to the
amounts asked for by Mr.. George. When
the bill was before the house committee, it
will be remembered, that committee cut off
nearly all the appropriations recommended
by the engineers, in order to keep down the
total of the bill. Among Slater's amend
ments was one for improving Coos bay $50,
600; for improving the mouth of the Colum-
bia river, 100000. and for the Coquille
river, $l5, 900, none of which was allowed by
the house amendments. They were all
referred to the committee on commerce.
Senator Miller introduced an amendment
to the deficiency bill, which was referred to
the committee on appropriations, appropri-
ating S45S, 434 to pay the state of California
per cent. of the net proceeds of sales of
public lands prior to June 30, 1883. bill
to encompass the same end has been favora-
bly, reported to both houses by the commit
tees on public lands.
