MAYOR MASON HERE.
Portland's Chief Magistrate Talks of
the Portland Outlook.

AhC OdIIOOhs
Oregon at the coming election will roll
up a majority for the Republican party
proportionately as large as that given to
Galusha Grow in the recent Congressional
contest" said w. S. Mason, Mayor of
Portland. at the Occidental Hotel yester-
day. There is no doubt that the party
will have sweeping victory"
Mr. Mason was elected on citizens
ticket by the largest majority which a can
didate for the mayoralty of Portland ever
received. He was mentioned prominently
as candidate for the nomination of Gov
ernor of Oregon, but declined to make the
race.
When Governor Pennoyer's name was
mentioned Mayor Mason threw up his
hands, declaring that Oregon would never
return him to high Office, and that the
State had suffered enough from his term
of office.
Portland was declared to be in as good
condition, in a business way, as any city
on the coast. He thought the lowest stage
of depression had been reached, and that
the outlook for the summer was good.
Mayor Mason is suffering from an affec-
ton of the throat, and came to California
to spend a couple Of weeks on the advice
of his physicians, who thought that brief
stay in a milder climate would cure the
malady.

THE STARR BROTHERS SUED.
Sensational Charges Made by Their
Former Partner.

Sensational Charges Made by Their
Former Partner.
Alfred Bann lister, who for many years
was managing partner of the firm Of Starr
& Co., and who severed his connection
with the firm in March. 1892. is about to
commence en- action In the Superior Court
against A. d. and A. w. Starr, his former
partners.
The suit is for an accounting and final
settlement OF the co-partDership which
was founded in January. 1875. and the
amount sued for is $4,000. with such
other damages as the court may see fit to
award. 1t is said that the details will be
of sensational character, and especially
interesting to business men OF this city.
Mr.. Bannister claims that he was taken
into the firm in January. 1875, and that
balance sheet of Decen Der 81, 1874, was
presented TO him by his Farmers, and
guaranteed to be correct. 1t was stipulated.
moreover. that should there be any differ
ence it was TO be on account of and borne
by the old firm. The assets of the firm
consisted of the mills at Vallejo. valued
then al $4,000. This sum just balanced
the liabilities of the firm as computed In
the balance sheet.
Acting upon these representations. Mr..
Bannister says that he paid into the firm
| $50, 600 for fourth interest, besides I'M
| dertaking to find $500 600 for the firm for
| the first year, 100000 for the second.
| $3.50, 600 for the third and later years at
per cent per annum less than the pre-
| vaiing rates, Mr.. Bannister now alleges
that he was deceived by his partners, and
| that the guaranteed balance-sheet was
entirely incorrect Several so-called
solvent" debts we're included among the
assets which were of no value whatever;
other OF the firms obligations were
omitted from the sheet. and altogether
| these shortages amounted 10 over S175, 000
| 1t is charged that under Mr.. Bannster's
management the firm became exceedingly
| prosperous and was still so when the part
! ners sold out TO the Starr company in 1883
| Bannister stayed with the business until
| his retirement in March, 1892, since which
date the business has steadily declined
| Only few weeks ago the Starr & Co.
corporation went into insolvency.

New Yorx Mark cts.

NEW YORK, July 23.-The moving influence of
the share speculation to-day was the disclosure
in the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway
Company, resulting from Expert Little's examina-
tion of the cOmpaAy's account According TO his
statement the income OF the company since the
last reorgan ization in 1889 had been overStated
some 81, 0OO, 900 by of the fact that re-
bates allowed to shippers were not properly
eharg ed on the books. II seems that over
ST. 600, 600 of these rebates have been adjusted,
Ieavi ng something less than $5,OOOOOO sill I'M
settled and carried floating debt.
While the rebate system was inaugursted by
President Manvel it was continued under PresE
dent Reinhart, who had, as occasion permitted,
lesseped the amounts by hanging them OF TO
oDerating expenses. he appointment OF recely-
ers necessarily resulted in the bringing 10 ght OF
the facts as well as causing dsconIinuance OF
rhe rebate system. In the London MARKET to-day
moth stock and bonds of the company were de-
pressed by the news and the publication in Lon

SKINS ARE CHEAP.
Fur Coats May Soon Be
Out of Fashion.
The Big Catch of Seals in the North
Affects the Local
Market.

The smooth and glossy sealskin sacque, such
as the ladies 20 into Mysteries over is likely to
become a drug on the market.
The fur seal has given up his hide without the
usual amount of trouble he causes the sealers,
and 10 ana behold the harvest of sealSkins is
: plentiful, but the purchasers are few.
Owing TO the big catch or the sealing fleet up
north and 10 Japan The price of skins has fallen
ana an advance Of only So is offered on the 1878
, pelts brought to town By The schooner Sophie
Sutherland
=: Dealers in furry luxures are wrathy and are
!; feeling exceedingly i'll. They say that they do
not propose TO reduce the retail price of their
articles OF trade even II all The women in San
francisco should die by reeZng during winter
or roast TO death In summer just 10 keep up
with the fashion.
. The owner of the Sutherland has not vet
found purchaser for his cargo, ana has failed
TO secure any takers for his offer of 81 advance.
1he market value of an uutanned skin is now
only S14.
The story that sealskins are cheap has not
yet reached Mob Hill nor been conveyed 10 the
hats. Society has as YET nOT cast aside the soft
garment that once branded the rich as prosper
Gus. nor has the working girl discarded the de-
luSlYe Sealette for genuine cloak OF hair.
