Miss Fannie C.rnev,s TroubIes.

Two years ago Miss Fannie Carney, residing
on the Wishkah river, near Aberdeen, became
the mother OF twins. whose paternity is not
known. Subsequently she found home with
Rev Byron Aldrich. at Hoquiam. Last fall she
went to Tacoma and gave birth to another child,
subsequently going to live with Mr. Aldrich,
who had removed TO Centralia. The girl de-
clares that II. Fessenfeld, OF Hoquiam. is the
father of the latest child. and brought suit
asaipst him at Chehalis for S, 600 damages. Mr..
Fesseuteld denies the paternity OF the child and
saws he had nothing whatever 10 do with her,
and his attorney obtained a change of venue to
Chehaiis county, where he will fight her claims
for damages or support OF the child. Miss
Carney declared to several parties that she

sugar Freight Rntes.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 4-The California sugar
rate is under consideration by the trans-M Mis-
souri, association today. The committee having
suggested the adyisability of raising the rate
from O. cents to 81 to Missouri river points, as
was predicted when the Kansas commissioners
ordered that the rate to Wichita and salina
should be reduced and not based on the Mis-
souri, river basis with local rate added.
Final action was not taken today, but it is
thought the suggestion will be put into
effect, in which case it will practically drive
California sugar out of the Missouri river mar
kets, and Kansas towns will be obliged to buy
Eastern sugar, as California refneries will sell
sugar in this territory only delivered at the Mis-
souri, river. 1t looks though Kansas whole
sale men had got themselves into a worse fix
than ever. With no California sugar in the mar
ket prices will go up on Eastern and refined, and
interior towns viii pay the extra cost

Arizona Girl stolen bv Indians.

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Feb. 6.-Further in
formation received today from Verde Val
ley in regard to an alleged abduction of
Alice Packard, i6-year-old girl. by two
Indians, confirms the report received yes
hfday. At the ranch house where the
Indians stopped with their captive. there
was no one at home except half-witted
boy, and he did not tell the story until
'hree days after the occurrence. While the
siory was not believed at first, the neigh
oers made investigation, and dis
covered moccasin tracks, together with
,he tracks made by the girls shoes.
IL Is now thought that the Indians
were Aayajoes ana Apaches, and rs they
had three days start of the pursucrs, there
milttie hope of overtaking the girl alive.
me Indians are probably back on the res
ovation, and it is feared the girl is dead.
ioftY armed men are securing the coun-
" IN every direction. At the time of her
1auctlon the girl was on her way 10 her
shcie, and her parents, supposing her TO
aase arrived there, did not hear of the ter
teae iacts until several DAYS later.

The Decadence of American Shipping.

NEW York, Feb. CIV. +. Ferguson, of
the New York produce exchange. recog-
nized authority on statistics of the grain
export trade of this port, has Just made
his annual report. The tables compiled
show enormous increase of grain export to
the trade of New York and the dwindling
away of the American ocean marine, the
American merchantmens flag being
driven off the seas by Great Britain. The
completeness with which steam has super
coded sail in the ocean carrying trade may
be seen from the fact that of / ,233 vessels
which carried cargoes of grain from this
port during 1891 only fifteen were
sailing vessels. During 1891 there
was shipped from New York IS. 3d.
52S bushels of American grain to
feed the hungry mouths of Europe. Not
included in this were 1908 bushels of
buckwheat. which appears in the statistics
for the first time, buckwheat never having
been exported before in any quantity. OF
1,23S shiploads only twenty-five were car
ried under the American flag. There were
only four American steamers left in the
grain-carrying trade. These were the old
passenger steamers OF the late American
line, which used to run from Philadelphia
under the control of the Pennsylvania
railroad. Great Britain has the lions
share of the worlds carrying trade, and no
less than 1872 shiploads left this port under
the British flag last wear

UNION SAILORS WIN.
Foreign Going Vessels to Carry
Union Men.
BOTH SIDES YIELD A TRIFLE.
One OF the Largest Ship Owners on the
Coast Signs tho Agreement-Others
to Yellowstone Dissatisfaction.

Agent HAST, of the Sailors Union. said
yesterday that an arrangement had been
made with Renton &c Holmes. the owners
OF the Port Blakeley vessels, whereby the
union Is to furnish the men hereafter for
those vessels when going foreign, and the
union men going coastwise on any of this
company's vessels are to be paid by the
month instead of by the trip as heretofore.
Mr.. HAST said he heard that Pope & Tall
bott, the owners of the Port Gamble and
Ludlow vessels, would make a similar
agreement, and in a short time he thought
all the vessels on the Coast would do the
same. In explanation of the circum-
stances which led TO this arrangement Mr..
HAST said:
THE Sailors Union has always been try
ing to get vessel owners TO take union men
when going foreign, the same as when
running caastwise. but they have always
refused. If vessel was coming up from
San Francisco for instance, to load on the
Sound Tor foreign port, she would ship a
crew at San Francisco for the trip up and
on arrival here discharge them. Then,
when she was ready 10 sail foreign, she
would pick up a crew of deep-water sail
ors, over whom the union had no control.
NAAN ASSNAe has bSfAA W
the union men and annoying to the ves-
sells, for men shipping for the trip
charged more, besides the trouble
OF hunting up crew of deep
water men every trip. The climax was
reached short time ago when the ship
Tcp-Gallant returned to San Diego after a
trip 10 Australia from the Sound. She
wanted to get crew to bring her up, but
the men refused to ship for less than $50
apiece for the trip. The captain would not
pay that much and advised the owners
representatives in San Francisco, and the
result was the agreement referred to. The
union men at San Diego were informed of
the agreement and advised TO accept the
regular monthly wages, but they kicked
against 1t and refused to have the officers
IN San Francisco enter into an agreement
for them. 1t was only few days, how
ever until crew Of union men was sent
down from San Francisco by the general
officers Of the union, and they brought the
vessel up. So the members of the San
Diego union saw there was no use in their
kicking and have become reconciled."

NORTH YAKIMA, Feb. Especial. The

the secretary of the interior very import
ant ruling affecting desert lands. Hereto
fore this class of lands within
railroad limits has been held at
$3.50 per acre, and those filing
have been obliged to make an
initial payment of so cents per acre.
Members of the Yakima Land Company,
the corporation which is sinking artesan
wells on the Mckee plateau, made ten
der of . cents per acre on about 5000
acres. This tender was rejected and an
appeal was taken. On this appeal the
