A Great Success.

The auction sale at Basye's yesterday and last
night was great success, from the fact that the
desire was apparent TO make every purchaser
feel that fair treatment was the rule. The peo-
pie in attendance and being the largest pur-
chasers were of the best families of Seattle, and
fine gold watches, diamonds, silverware and
art goods were sold rapidly at low prices. The
desire of the managers is only TO raise needed
money, and knowing that the only way TO make
the sale a continued success was TO offer only
the best goods-in view of this there have been
no plated watches sold or offered for sale, only
the solid ones on diamonds the purchaser is
not required 10 pay anything at once, and has
twenty-folr hours in which to thoroughly ex-
anime and satisfy himself OF the quality of the
goods. The sale is conducted with more fair
ness to the purchaser than to Mr.. Basye's inter
ests and everybody should attend.

The recent city ordinance which provides for
the arrest OF all persons such as loafers and
gamblers, without visible means OF support, on
charge of disorderly conduct, is to be tested by
an appeal to the superior court. On September

charging him with being disorderly person
and with sssociating with disorderly women,
especially with one Nellie Doyle. He was de-
elsred guilty by Judge Rivers. of the municipal

The trouble at Gilman was over the two men
Legg and Laws. II seems that several DAYS ago
they determined to go to work. after sticking 20
the strikers until their children were starving.
As soon as they announced their intention they
were threatened with death, and on Monday
night their house was surrounded BY a gang of
striking miners who shot forty or f.ty shots at
the doors and windows. literally Kidding the
building with bullets. Expecting an attack,
Legg and Laws hung thick comforters against

STEAMER POOL IN DANGER.
Pacific Navigation and Canadian Pacific
Again Threaten to withdraw.

The threatened secession of the Pacific Navi-
CATION Company and the Canadian Pacific Navi-
CATION Company from the Puget Sound Steam
ship Association proves TO have been only
postponed, as those corporations have given
notice of withdrawal from the association, to
take effect on september so. On that day the
association viii hold meeting in Portland to
consider the changed situation. A proposal will
probably be made TO lay up certain boats, in Or
der to leave enough steamers running to do the
business at profit. The Pacific Navigation
Company is preparing to put the State of Wash
ington and Fairhaven in service again as soon
as its subsidy of 81 500 a month expires on Octo-
Der 10, but the rate war which would be likely
to ensue may be averted by the establishment
of differential rates in favor of the slower boats
and less attractive boats.
IL is not expected that the Canadian Pacific
will do any rate-cutting, the object of its with
drawal being rather TO have greater freedom in
running excursions

Judge Humes yesterday sent Ernest Justice, q
i3-year-old boy, to the state reform school on
application OF his mother Mrs. Cora Thompson.
The application was made nearly six weeks
ago, but the case was continued in hopes that
the boy might be reclaimed from his bad habits.
He has for several months refused to live with
his mother, has kept company with a gang OF
young thieves, and has been convicted in the
police court of petty larceny. His mother at

ways, had him admitted to the reform school
