Seven OF the crew OF the English
ship Marion Frazier, who have been
confined to the county jail at Tacoma,
on charge OF deserving from the ship,
were put aboard the ship III irons, the
other day. While the men were be-
ing taken aboard, they contrived to
put some pieces OF iron in their pock-
cts, with which they broke two large
p.ate-glass windows, and, ironed as
they were, it was all that the deputies
could do to subdue them. Captain
Mcdonald says that the court and
other costs will eat up every cent Of
the mems wages for the entire voyage,
as the cost of the detention of the
ship will be charged to them.
According to the annual report of
Fish Commissioner Little the salmon
pack of Puget Sound for 1897 was
494,O26 cases rs COMPARED with 3I2.-
361 cases in 1896. The increased
revenue will amount to over half a
million dollars. The increase in pro-
duction is due in a measure to the
large run of salmon, but the canneries
were better able to handle to handle
the fish. The number of men en-
gagged in the business of fishing was
large. The largest increase is shown
in the pack of sockeye salmon and the
only decrease is in the tyee or chinook
salmon. The increase in the pack Of
fall salmon was the largest per cent
Over three times the number of 1896
we're packed last year. The commits.
sioner estimates the value of the pack
atSl. 100000. He objects strongly tc
the throwing of sawdust in the
streams.
