The Engineers Ad;onrn

The engineers have adjourned their an
nual convention, held at Denver, after
adopting an amendment to the constitu-
ton. Heretofore when fireman was pro-
noted to be an engineer he could not join
the latters brotherhood without first re-
signing from the fremens brotherhood.
The amendment adopted abrogates this
and allows fireman joining the engineers
to retain his membership in the fremens
brotherhood. Other amendments of a
minor character were adopted and the con-
vention adjourned to meet in Pittsbure

happening this year in the business por-
tons Of her four cities-Seattle, Van

not less than $l6.OO0,0OO. The report
shows an extraordinary increase in the

$6l, 562,739 in 1887, to $124,795,449 in
1889, a gain of more than 100 per cent.
The great staple of eastern Washington is
wheat. The volcanic soil of that region,
the governor says, is particularly adapted
to the growth of all cereals, the average
yield being twenty five and 6ve-tenths
