The Status of the Half Dozen Big
Enterprises Now Afoot.

WHArooM. Nov. 1.-THE general i'm
preston prevails here that the North
ern Pacific railroad is silently behind
the Nelson Bennett, scheme to build a
railroad from the Skagit iron and coal
fields to Bellingham bay.
The veins of coal being prospected
by Mr.. Cornwall's company are very
promising, so much SO that a railroad
will be built to them, on the Nooksaek
river, in the early spring.
The Cornwall company also expect
70 push their railroad eastward
through the Cascade mountains. and
many believe some arrangement has
been made to meet the Manitoba line.
which by this route will find an outlet
on Bellingham bay.
Senator Garfield is here looking af-
ter railroad matters. He says the rails
have been ordered and the contract
for constructing the railroad to the
American boundary from New West
minister will soon be let. Then in the
spring the connection will be made
from the boundary to Whatcom, then
south to Seattle.
1t Is safe to say that the large saw
mill to be erected at Schome by the
Cornwall Co. will be in running order
within six months at furthest. Mr..
Cornwall says it will cut 100, 900 feet of
lumber in ten hours. The contract
for its construction will be let in Cal
ifornia this week. on the return to
San Francisco OF Messrs. Cornwall,
Hayward, and Bell. This mill may
stimulate 10 action the Bellingham
mill, now tied up in the lumber trust.

Nooksack river. Capt Schoff's steamer
Nooksack is doing the largest business,

a great deal of farm p oiuce.

does not object to it he may be called
a handsome man. with very dark hair
and mustache, beard which he has
let grow for the winter. and pair of
very expressive dark blue eyes. There
is an air of intellectually about him
which will soon commend him to his
Seattle flock. In physique he is rather
slight. but not too much so, appar-
entity. He was born 80 years ago in
Sharpsburg, Pa, then a suburb of
Pittsburgh. He received the degree
of A. NJ from the Mount Union col
lege, Stark county, Ohio, spent
a year in Massachusetts,, in

He might have remained at Salina two
more years had the terms of minis

three to five years in time-an action
taken recently by the conference.
Mr.. Campbell had hoped that DR..
Pomeroy would fill the pulpit this
Sunday, so he could have enjoyed one
Sunday of rest. but he failed to ar
range for this in time, and DIR. Pome-
roy has already been announced to
the contrary. His subject this morn

HER SPEED TO BE INCREASED.
Repairs to the Steamer Washington
Marine Ways Needed.

As was stated in former issue Of
the PosT-ISTELLIaENcER, the steamer
Washington has been laid up for re-
pairs, her route between this city and
Whatcom being taken by the Eliza
Anderson, the City of Quincy making
three trips weekly between this port
and La Conner. Extensive repairs
viii be made on the Washington at the
ways, Port Ludlow. there being no fa-
cilities in this city TO do the work.
Her present hull will be re-
placed by much lighter one,
the boilers enlarged and the present
cylinders bored out about one-quarter
of an inch. This will increase the
speed Of the steamer at least one-fifth.
and when she is again placed on her
old route. which will be in the early
spring, there viii not be a saifter craft
on the Sound.
In this connection it is fl ting to
draw attention to the fact that Seattle
has no dry dock nor any of
the requirements for the refitting
or repairing of ship-bettoms.
IL is expected. however. that in the
near future the Queen City will In this,
ms she has already done in other de-
partments, keep ahead of the process
sion. A marine way has been under
consideration for some time past. and
the sooner Seattle acquires this indi-
spensable adjunct 10 port so famous
as hers, the better will II speak Tor the
enterprise OF her citizens.

WILL TRY TO EJECT HIM.
A Real Estate Suit Involving
Squatters Rights.

A very interesting real estate case in
volving the rights of landlord and ten
ant, will come up before Justice Jones
next Tuesday. This is the suit for
rent and ejectmcnt brought by w. H.
Johnson against Henry Simmons. Mr..
johnson purchased the lot on the
Northwest corner of West and Stewart
streets last spring from Turner, Engei
& Lewis, agents for Mr.. Denny, and
according to his attorneys, Messrs.
Peterson & Faben, Mr.. Simmons
Jumped" the land and put up two
frame buildings on it. The suit is
brought under sections POST and 205S
OF the code of Washington. By these
sections a landlord. or original posses
sor. can bring a suit for rent
against the squatter and demand
his vacation of the premises. The
squatter. or rather, Jumper" as the
street term is, must give up the prop
erty on demand. The plaintiff claims
$50 per month rental from Oct. l..
Several fine points are expected to be
raised when the lawyers argue their
respective sides of the controversy.
Lots in this vicinity have sold for be-
tween $1,000 and $1,000, and Mr.. Peter
son believes that the building OF the
Denny hotel on Second street in that
vicinity, and the opening of West
street from Stewart south will enhance
the value OF the property consider
ably over that figure.
