Sullivan and zEiicheII.

A dispatch to the New York World
from Liverpool sys Sullivan has chal~
lenged Mitchell to fight ia a 16 foot
ring. Arthur Maginis agrees to back
Sullivan for S25,000 and makes Il bet
of $1,000 that John L. will knock
out Mitchell in forty uinutes. Sui
ivan says of the late fight: Nobody
was more surprised than at the re-
suit ofthe late encounter, and m not
ashamed to say so. But all was fair
and square can't say that Mitch
ell ever dropped without being hit,
but he fell at the slightest touch. /
only got one good whack at him and
that disabled my arm Another one
like it would have settled HIM Il
was no use going on, so was salts
fed to make it a draw. I don't think
Mitchell will ever face me or any
body else again In a serious fight
He is better man than I thought he
was"
A dispatch from LONDON says
Michel, when seen said: "No! I
shall not fight him again nor any
bt dy else. The way 1 feel NV Il
that a man with q family dependent
on him must be careful about engag-
ing in serious encounters OF that
kind"

E-O&gers In Council.

Tacoma News.l
Many of the leading Puget Sound
loSser are in session at Seattle to
discuss their grievances and devise
ways and means to remedy them
Among those present last evening
were 5. Coulter, Of North Bay, j. II.
Mcdonald, of Satsop: Dudley BIan-
chard, from Samish; the Day boys
and others, from Skagit; L. d. Smith
Isaac Cathcart, 7. Elweil and others
from Snohomish; Terrence O'Brien,
from Stuck junction; James Mono
que. from Squak; l. G. Ellis, OF
Olympia, and many others. Their
grievances, as one expressed Ii, is
that ''the mill owners, not content
with living and letting live, organ
lied themselves into corporation
known as the Puget Sound Broker
age association, with the avowed OBJ
ject of regulating the price of logs
on Puget Sound, or in other words,
they combined 10 DO away with all
competition III buying logs. The
logg5rs, unbeknown to themselves,
parcelled out among the different
AliiIiS, anu Il lOSStE .MllO bSitl DeSB SET
down as belonging TO Meiggs, at
Madison, was debarred from selling
his logs elsewhere, as one of the
terms of the combination provided
for this"
Tney will demand that tho operas
tions of that brokerage association be
permanently suspended, aud that a
uniform and honest scale be adopted
by The milling companies, so that the
loggers viii get fair shake when
they sell their logs"
They say that they will stand to
gether in this demand !" for they can
not afford to make a failure of this
movement at this time 4 failure
now would mean destruction of the
logging interests on Puget Sound"
They are mot organizing to raise
the price of logs above the present
prices, aud Will be satisfied with low
er prices whenever the state of the
lumber market demands It, but want
the privilege of selling logs where
and to whom they see fit, at as high a
price rs they can get fer them, with
out any outside interference, and to
accomplish that object they will
stand firm and united"

= Signal Failure

Ellensburg LOcalizer: Our dele
gate has not procured mail facilities
fol the Salmon mines. 1t was said
when he was elected thai he was IN
harmony with the majority of the
lower house of congress and per con-
sequence could enlist more aid in
anything that he would ask for than
any republican could possibly think
of getting. The only thing he has
asked for and insisted upon is put
ting Idaho's pan handle on our pan.
In that effort he has signally failed.
He seems to study nothing but in
possibilities. Two years ago he
failed to ask tor the forfeiture of the
lands down the Columbia from Wal
lula to Portland. But Ae spent all
his energies on an attempt to get :.
forfeit of all the lands Of the odd
sections from the Missouri river to
Il Pacific ocean. He wanted the
Wh hog or none. and he achieved
Il c latter. He has proven himself
the weakest man that has ever been
u from the territory as delegate.

HIGC-SaVin% service.

Major Blakeney, superintendent cf
the United States Lifa-Saviug ser
vice of this d. tTict. has received oili-
cial notice that the monthly pay I
surfmen has been Increased from
$40 TO $50 = month, from and after
April 1st next. This increase, which
by the way, Is the Same standard of
wages PAID TO surfmen on the At
lantic coast, has been long desired
and urged for this district, as great
difficulty has been experienced III
obtaining competent men TO remain at
the stations for the low wages paid.
Surfmen are generally sailors. and
heretofore they would frequently no
sooner become well trained than they
would ship on coasters, where higher
wages We're obtained. Under the
new schedule 1t Is expected that able
and trained men may be kept in the
service.
The recent visit of Lieutenant Ale
Clellan and Engineer Ven Beyor of
of the Life-Saving Service was highs
ly beneficial to the interests Of the
department of this coast They
came partly to see the needs and
partly to investigate certain charges
preferred against Superintendent
Blakeuey. Investigation resulted in
a complete exoneration OF the Super
intendent.
They have now returned to Wash
ington, but are busily engaged in
preparing plans for the three new
stations on this coast authorized 10y
Congress one year ago The sites
chosen are: o. in this harbor just
east of Fort Winfield Scott; q at
Point Reyes, on the beach north of
the lighthouse, 81 at Point Adams,
inside the bar on the south entrance
to the Columbia river. With these
and the present stations, the service
on this coast Will have nine we'll
equipped life-saying stations. The
present locations are at Neah Bay
Cape Arago, Shoal water bay, Cape
Disappointment, Humboldt bay and
Golden Gate Park. The additional
stations Will be of great value, and
all interested hope their erection
will be no longer delayed. It Is
hoped, if nothing prevents, to get
them up and equipped before the
end of the present year.

The Iron and Steel Trade.

The Bulletin Of the Iron aud Steel as
ISOLATION gives the following atement OF
the Iron and Steel Trade Of 1887:
1.-The year hich has just closed was one
of great activity and fair prosperity for
the iron trade of this country. Produc-
tion in ali leading branches of the manu-
facture of iron and steel was the largest in
our history-larger than in the remark
able year 1886, when all previous achieve
ments were left far behind v e estimate
our production OF pig iron in 1887 at :
100000 gross tons, or about 100000 tons
more than in 1856 when our production
was 5.6s3 329 tons. Oar prediction of
Bessemer steel rails in 1887 was about
1850, 900 gross tons, or about 375 900 Tons
more than IL 1886 when our production
was 1,574,7 03 tons. 10 addition to our
large production Of pig iron in 1887 we
also consumed about 500 600 tons Of i'm
ported pig iron and about 1860, 600 tons Of
imported steel rails, Our imports OF iron
and steel in other forms in 1887 were also
very large, the total imporlatious of iron
and steel i'll all forms aggregating nearly
800 900 tons. Our production Of iron ore
in 1887 was about II 600 900 gross tons and
our imports in the same year amounted to
about ,250.000 tons. In 1856 We produced
about 10,000,000 gross tons Of iron ore and
imported / ,039. 433 tons.
