HooUIAM, WASH, Aug. 20.-Replying
to yours of the 18th regarding the cargo
of tho Abercorn, will say: There was,
at the time of the wreck, 1000 rails. At
the present time 900 rails have been
secured, with = the probability of
another thousand being secured
They , have been hauled to the
Oyhut landing, six miles, where they
are to be shipped to Aberdeen, eighteen
miles; and placed on board the cars. I
am informed the final disposition of
them has not been made. If can learn

This is about ali that can be learned
respecting the, cargo. of the Abercorn,
and as it seems impossible to learn any
thing, from any source, respecting the
future plans of Mr.. Mohr, The CHRoN-
IcLE suggests that the various farmers
organizations throughout the Inland
Empire, and the boards of trade, cham
bers of commerce, waterways associa-
tions, ETC., get together and make one
moro formal effort to open the river by
state aid, upon some combination be-
tween the states of Oregon, Washington
and Idaho. --s.---.

Futile Efforts to Learn Anything Con.

Futile Efforts to Learn Anything Con-
cerning the Plans OF Paul F.s1Iohr.
People in the Inland Empire are get
ting anxious about the movements of
Paul F. Mohr. It was positively stated,
when he purchased the wrecked cargo of
the Abercorn, that the railway iron
would be used to lay track from the
head of Cello rapids to North Dalles,
thus forming portage which should be
the key to unlock the bottled up Inland
Empire. ss.z1.--
Before the convention of the Water
ways association, held in Portland in
April 1896, ,this came portage was prom
ised, and Twas publicly proclaimed to be-
come the nucleus a bout which millions of
money was to gather portland with $5,-
O00, 600, wasn't in it21 and Immediately
make the Columbia an open river, free
for all craft, from its very sources to the
sea.
Portland put up about $1,000 after
wards. The Dalles done the rest; to
open the river from this city to Astoria,
free for all; which it now is, by using
the state portage at the cascades.
Next, this portage figured very con-
spicuously in the senate last spring, to
assist in defeating Senator Dolph's pro-
ject for boat railway-since then it
has lulled down to a state of quiescence,
compared to which death seems a rous-
ing demonstration. In the present con-
dition of affairs, therefore, it is not the
least snrpfising that speople of the. sIT-
land Empire should sbe making anxious
inquiry as to what has become of the
project of Mr.. Paul F. Mohr7 One of
the people addressed letter of inquiry
to the Postmaster at Hoquiam, to ascer-
tain if possible what has become OF the
cargo of the Abercorn7 The answer is
as follows:

The Straw.
Special to THE CHEoNIcLE.l
.WAP1NITIA, Aug. 2O.-The small grain
crop is now being. threshed and how
many farmers have arranged to take
care Of the straw in way. that will en-
able them to utilize it tothe best advan-
tage7 The usual rush of the thteshing
season, coming as it does SO closely fol-
lowing the harvest it is not strange
that there is neglect of the straw crop
where not previously provided . for.
Stack yards cannot be provided for all
the grain where large crops are rnised, a
portion must of necessity be stacked at
convenient points about the field. This
does not in the least excuse the piling
out and spreading out of the straw as it
comes from the machine. Have good
hand to superintend the building of the
straw stack, an addition of one or two
hands at most will enable you to put
your straw up in nice shape, go it will
keep until eaten down by the cattle or
sheep. A good big roomy straw shed for
cattle is an excellent thing in the feed
lots or in convenient places on the farm
to be used in case ofneed. In construct
ing the frame work for these sheds, be
careful TO have them made of strong
material and securely put together so
there will be no liability of breaking
down under the weight of straw that
may be put ON them. Build the straw
stackSaround and over the shed, make it
80 it will protect stock all winter, and
you have value at once in your straw
crop that will justify double the expense
of its cost. Straw may be literally used
for the bedding of stock, if it is put up
in stack in q well preserved condition.
This is one of the much neglected uses
of straw. All the farm animals should
sleep on straw during the cold winter
season, and plenty of it. Their beds
should be made over frequently and
clean straw added. The fertalizing
materials about the yards and stables
may thus be put into shape to be
saved, and in this you have one of the
most valuable adiuncts to the iarm OUT
fit. ds4s 81 d. d.

Hope---The Future Outlook.
A Washington special mentions that
Oregon's Henry Clay, Hon. Binger Her
mann appeared personally before the
acting secretary of war, Gen. Grant, on
Saturday, seeking to expedite depart
ment action as to the contracting of
work at the cascade locks on the Column
bia. Mr.. Grant assured Mr.. Hermann
that the department itself is doing all
that is possible, and allowing no un-
necessary time to elapse; that Maj.
Handbury, being the officer in charge,
has been directed to submit specifca-
tions upon the contract which is to be
let. So many advantages are taken by
contractors in every way that the chief
of engineers is determined that when a
contract is entered into. for the great
work, it will be done as congress has
directed. It must be understood that
no. lenience will be shown, and that
every particle of work must be com
pleted in the exact time and order spec
ified in the contract, and the contract
shall be so carefully prepared that no
advantage shall be had by legal quib
bles. 80
Today the Oregonian states that Mai.
Handbury has returned to Portland from
Cascade Locks. It says: "There is no
one at work there now except Lieuten-
ant Taylor and force of draughtsmen,
who are working on the plans and speci-
fications of all the; work necessary to
complete the locks.s As these are for the
use of contractora who wish to bid for
the entire work, drawings of every de-
tail must be made, and it will also be
necessary for bidders to visit the locks
and see what has been done and what is
to be done. Major Handbury expects
to get the specifications off to Washing
ton this week. The conditions under
which the work is to be done are such
as are applied to other government
works of like character, to protect the
government as far as possible from loss
through failure of contractors, etc."
