LUMBERMEN CONFIDENT.
Meeting with President Mellen to
Discuss AO-Cent Missouri River
Rate Promises to Hear Fruit.

The lumbermen's committee having
charge OF the matter of securing a accent
rate on lumber from Puget sound points
to the Missouri river returned from Ia
coma yesterday, where they had a con-
ference with President MeIlen on the sub
lect, X was the intention Of the commit
tee to leave tonight for st. Paul. where a
conference had been arranged with Traf-
fic Manager J. NJ Hannaford OF the
Northern Pacific. and George NJ. Crosby.
The meeting with President Mellen. how
ever. Will do away with the necessity ef
going 70 ST. Paul at the present time. Tn
less the rate IL granted however. the
members will probably go there after
election.
I'VE had a very pleasant meeting with
Mr.. Melien said Victor II. Beckman.
just as much confidence that we will get
the rate as before going 70 Tacoma. Mr..
Mellen listened to our arguments and
agreed with us that the granting of the
road very materially from this section.
He promised on his return to ST. Paul to
take the matter up with Mr.. Hannaford
and see what could be done. He was at
first inclined to let sentiment enter into
the matter. He said that he was afraid
that the granting OF the rate would be
disastrous to the white pine lumber men
and that II might have a tendency to af-
feet the rates on white pine In the East
The only other objection that he Of
fered. or rather. brought up. in discuss
ing the matter was that his road could not
AFFORD 10 send to the coast the number of
empty cars that II would require to carry
the new shipments to the Eastern mar
kets. The figures we presented him
showed that IL II became necessary to
send out every car required to the coast
empty the business would pay big mar
gin. lie was also under the impression
that the road IL now sending large num-
bers of cars to the coast empty for the
lumber trade, but We were able to con-
vince him that by far the greater share
Of the cars now coming here empty were
for the use OF the grain trade
''On the whole our meeting was sue
cess. and we have every confidence that
we Will ultimately be successful In our
Efforts

THE RIGHT THING.
A New Catarrh Cure. which IL Rap
idly Coming to the Front.

For several years Eucalyptol, Guaiacoi
and Hydrastin have been recognized as
standard remedies for catarrhal troubles.
but they have always been given sep
arately and only very recently an In
genious chemist succeeded In combining
them. together with other antiseptics, into
pleasant, effective tablet.
Druggists sell the remedy under the
name OF Siuart's catarrh Tablets. and II
has met with remarkable success in the
cure OF nasal catarrh. bronchial and
throat catarrh and In catarrh OF. the
stomach.
Mr. r. n. Benton, whose address il
care OF Clark House, Troy. ". Y, says:
When ] run up against anything that is
good like to tell people of 1t, have
been troubled with catarrfi more or less
for some time. Last winter more than
ever. Tried several so-eaIied cures. but
did not get any benefit fror, them. About
six weeks ago | bought a 5o-cent box of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and / am glad
to say that they have done wonders for
me and / do not hesitate to let all my
friends know that Stuart's Catarrh Tab
let's are the right thing.
~, Mr. Geo J Casanova, Of Hotel Grif-
Ton, West sth street. New York city.
writes: ! have commenced using Stuartss
Cafarrh Tablets, and already they have
given me better results than any ca
taIFn cure 4 nave ever tried.
leading physician OF Pittsburg advises
the use of Stuarts Catsrrh Tablets IN
preference to any other treatment for ca
tarrh OF the head, throat or stomach.
He claims they are far superior to In
haiers, saves. lotions or powder, and are
much more convenient and pleasant TO
take and are so harmless that little chill
dren take them with benefit as they con-
tain no opiate, cocaine or any poisonous
drug.
All druggists sell Stuart's Cafarrh Tab
let's at 80 cents for full sized package, and
they are probably the safest and most
reliable cure for any form OF catarrh

A LIVELY RUNAWAY.
Fisher Bros Team Makes a Remark
able Record on Bond Street.

A great deal Of excitement prevailed
in the business portion Of the city yes
terday afternoon, caused by one of the
most remarkable runaways that has
occurred in Astoria for long time.
The team belonged to Fisher Bros,
the hardware dealers. and was standing
near Foard \ Stokes store. One of the
horses in the team had just been
brought in from the country and, being
unaccustomed to street cars, took
fright at an approaching car, and the
pair started off in the direction of Bond
street up which they turned, running
at a terrific rate,

the street and succeeded in stopping
them. But their race had not even yet

At this point Councilman Cook, who
had been running after the team, over
took the runaways and stopped them
by hanging to the bride.
II was, indeed, daring act on the
part Of Mr.. Cook, for the streets were
covered with ice and the team was
running at a terrific rate. Had he not
stopped the horses where he did, how
