Proposed Closed Season for Salmon III

Proposed Closed Season for Salmon in
the Columbia River.
VICTORIA, Oct. 6.-Commissioner Liv-
ingstone's report recommending a close
season for salmon in the Columbia River
and its tributaries is favorably received
by salmon packers, who think it would
be better for all parties concerned were
there some understanding between the
United States and Canada, so that no ad-
vantage could be taken of packers on
either side when the other reduces the
pack, either for protection of the fish or
to regulate the supply.
The fact that several British Columbia
sealing schooners are offered for sale
causes apprehension for the future and
much gloom in their interests. It is
feared that the schooners in the hands of
the Russians will be condemned and for
feited. The tardiness of the British au-
thorities in representing the sealers' case
is generally condemned. While some
schooners have paid well, many have not
paid expenses.

Fopeclal 10 the tSECORD-O Mon.
CoFFEYv1LLE (Nan.), Oct. 6. - The
streets are packed with crowds of excited
people from the adjoining country who
have been attracted by the Dalton tragedy
ofyesterday.
The four dead bandits lie in coffins at
the City Jail with guard to see that they
are not disturbed. Crowds of people are
attracted to view them through morbid
curiosity.
The stairway leading to the room where
Emmet Dalton lies is surrounded by a
crowd of men and women who are en-
deayoring to persuade the guard to allow
them to see him. He is weak from the
loss of blood. His wounds were dressed
this morning.
In conversation with reporter he said
that Bob put up the job last Saturday and
prevailed upon the rest to take part in it,
though they were opposed to it, believing
that it was not feasible.
They were short of funds, and were
preparing TO leave the country, as they
were being closely pressed. The bodies
OF Bob and Grattan Dalton, Tom Evans
and Jack Moore were taken to his bed
side this morning and he identified them.
He shed tears when he saw his dead
brothers. The names of the last two are
not their real names, which are withheld
from the public for what the officials say
are good reasons.
The dead bandits were buried here this
afternoon in the City Cemetery, in lot
owned by the Dalton family. The bodies
were carried to the grave in wagons,
without a mourner or a sympathizing
friend.
The robbers secured S2O,2 from the
First National Bank, and s., GOO from
Condon's bank. The amount recovered
exceeds this, confirming Emmet's state
ment that the robbers had $500 OF their
own money.
1t is now thought that only five men
were in the raid, and if this is true the
entire gang has been eXterminated.
The body of Lucius Baldwin was taken
to Burlington, Kan, this morning. and
that of Charles Brown will be sent to
Harley, S. ID.
The funerals of Marshal Connolly and
George Cubine were held this afternoon.
Emmett Dalton has made sworn state
ment tnat Bob and Grat were concerned
in California robbery, and also in the
4 lair robbery of several weeks ago.
AT IL o'clock tonight Emmet Dalton
WAS still alive but suffering great agony
from his wounds. Cashier Ayers will
probably recover. The party who started
in pursuit of Allie Ogee returned to-day,
having lost track of the fugitive.
