PRICES TEND UPWARD.
Trade East and West Still Reporte,
Good by Bradstreet.

Bradstreet's weekly review says that
dtstributive trade, while smaller at some
markets, is still of encouraging volume,
industry is active, railway earnings
heavy, prices still tend upward and bank
clearings increase, while failures lessen.
Fall festivals and other celebrations at
several cities have exercised an apprecia-
BILE effect upon retail trade and proved
stimulating factor in wholesale lines. In
industrial affairs activity is widespread
and strikes are fewer and less costly
than in most years. Business failures are
apparently at minimum and liabilities
are certainly less costly than for many
years past. Prices as a whole manifest
aggressive strength.

Fish Catch at Fairhaven.

"The largest run of salmon ever
known on Puget Sound occurred this
year." said G. ]. McNab who has been
in charge OF fish trap No. 1900, situ-
ated at Cape White Horn, seven miles
from Blaine, this summer, to the Post
Intelligence Monday. The trap is a
part of the system OF the Pacific
American Fisk Company, of Chicago,
which has during the past year made
many large and valuable improve
ments In their phantom the Sound un-
til they claim today the largest and
best equipped fish plant for catching
and packing or curing fish in the
Northwest.
.'The manner of catching salmon on
the Sound differs materially from the
river fisheries" said Mr.. McNab. "Our
traps consist of lead and three COM
partments. The lead is net that runs
below the trap proper for a distance of
say fifty yards, the fish swimming up
the Sound strike this net and at once
sheer off and come in to the first COM
partment of the trap proper, the pot
From there they swim into the second
compartment called the>'big and little
hearts, and from there they go direct
into the 'spiller,' and there the career
of the salmon as live fish ends.
During the past summer we have
had runs of as high as 10000 fish in
trap 1900, all sockeye salmon, and
the fish would average fully eight
pounds each. The seasons catch will
amount to over 275,O0O fish and the
fall catch of silver salmon in Hood
canal is yet to come.
"The average shipments of fish,
canned, from Fairhaven this season
has been from five to fifteen car loads
day. In addition to this car loads
of humpback salmon have been sa.ted
and shipped East.

the past season we have caught four
seals, porpoises, dogfsh, devil fish and
lot of things that we did not try to
name. The fur seals we skinned and
sold the hides, the dogfish and por-
poises went to the fertilizer and the
rest Of the menagerie we turned loose
or killed.
"During the coming winter the
company is going to fish for all kinds

thing else edible are to be taken and
