refrigerator car. which has been here for a
month loading fresh fish for the Boston
market, will leave on SATURDAY. for its des-
tinaiion. Mr.. Hacke,t's plan is 10 keep
the fish fresh in q low temperature like
cold storage. without freezing them.
Freezing destroys the favor. A sample of
fish which had been in the car twenty-four
days was served a. the Hotel Monte Cristo
one day this week and they were as tine as
though just taken from the water. Mr..
hackett, who has had many years expert.
ence in handling fish. says that the Puget
sound fsh are superior TO anything he has
found in his experience. The present
venture promises To be successful and is
likely to result in the establishment of q
large business

VICTORIA, March Especial The sug-

Canada from the United States vas dis
cussed in th. legislature this afternoon.
aud Horne's motion on the subject was
adopted Provincial Treasurer Turner
spoke feelingly of the annoyance caused
to Fraser river Gamers and the customs
authorities of both countries through the
practical absence OF law on. this tiny patch
of United States territory. which is only
four square miles in area, but commands
the entrance 10 the Fraser.
The legislature did not appear 10 be san
guine of the success of the resolution. and
one member suggested that the United
States would want in exchange Vancouver
island, or Queen Charlotte island at least.
The provincial minister Of finance in
speaking on the Point Roberts resolution

THE VALENTINE SCRIP CASES.
Not Affected by the SOpgems Courts
Harhor Line Decisiou.

Limo DeCioeo0.
OLYMPIA, March Especial. From
advices just received from Washington
City it appears tha, tho famous Valen-
entine scrip cases of NJ. L. Baer VS..
Moran Bros. Co.. and Jacob c. Mann VS..
Tacoma Land Company will not be ar
gued this month, but are set for hearing
before the supreme court for April 2, 1894.
The reason of this Is that Justice Jackson,
who is in i'll health, has gene to Florida
and Is not expected to appear in his seat
before April. Senator White. whose resi9-
nation will take effect March IL, 1894,
will then occupy his seat on the supreme
bench. In the case Of the Northern Pa
ciiic Railroad Company vs.. the harbor
commissioners, the supreme court was
divided in the opinion, and il seems there
is an opportunity for this case to drag
along again for two or three years, esne-
ciaiiy as il was not argued before full
bench. In recent interview, Col. II. f.
Garresson, prominent lawyer of Tacoma,
and also one of the recent harbor commits
sioners and party to the suit in the
Northern Pacific railroad case, stated that
Justice Gray's decision did not affect the
question Of the Valentine scrip locations.

the question of title will be brought
squareiy before the supreme court and
Col. Garretson says that if the scrip men
win they will be subject to the same re-
stric.ions as any other parties occupying
tide lands within the harbor. that is. sub
ject to the right of the state to regulate
the harbor lines and building on them.
Atiorney-General Jones will probably not
