30 MORE wHIsKEY scows.
Government Refuses to License the
Floating Craft TO Sell Liquor
Must Be Moved Ashore.

The revenue department has made a
new ruling regarding the sale Of IL
quor on scows on the Columbia. For
years there have been a number Of
scows anchored along the river at
points convenient to the fishermen.
where the latter could procure liquor
by the quart. The scows have been
kept in the river owing to the diff
Guilty and danger in making landings
along the shore. but under the new
ruling mentioned the floating whole
sale liquor houses will have to take
dry land or go out Of business.
The ruling was brought about by the
payment Of his internal revenue IL
cense by cosma Constantine. who has
a scow in the river off Tenas Hlihee
island. Constantine paid the license
to City Auditor Nelson who forward
ed the money to Collector OF Internal
Revenue Dunno at Portland. who re-
turned the money yesterday with the
information that no license to sell
liquor would be granted to scows an
chored in the river. This means that
they will have to pull their floating
houses out on the shore and put foun-
dations under them. The fishermen
say that this rule will settle the scow
trade as they prefer to come to AS
toria rather than take the chances Of
making landing on the river bank.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Fish Thief Awaiting Trial Stabs Him.
self in the County Jail.

About supper time last night, Under
Sheriff Grant in walking about the
corridor Of the county jail noticed
spots OF blood on the floor. Almost at
the same moment he noticed that
something was wrong with Charles
Bacon, the man held for trial in the
justice court day or two ago for
stealing fish from one Of the Associa-
tion's canneries.
Accosting Bacon, the under sheriff
finally got him to admit that he had
tried to kill himself. An examination
of the man showed that, using a
piece broken from the blade of pair
of scissors as a weapon. Bacon had
inflicted stab just over his heart.
While the scissors blade had not pen
etrated the lung cavity, and the
wound was therefore not dangerous,
Bacon was weak from the loss Of blood.
A physician was called and dressed
the wound.
IL CHSilh LlnNllISt DdSon SdAu hC hdu
became respondent over the prospect
OF serving a long term in prison and
concluded to end his troubles. The
sheriff believes that the man is trying
to work the sympathy dodge or tried
to injure himself Just enough to cause
his removal to some hospital from
which he might later on make his ts-
cape. Had he been in earnest, the
broken scissors blade furnished him
with a weapon amply strong and
sharp enough to have accomplished
his purpose.
Sheriff Linville also believes that Ba-
con is an old offender and that he is
wanted somewhere else and is afraid
his arrest here will lead to his whree-
abouts becoming known. At any rate
everything has been taken from Bacon
and his cell that might furnish him
with the means of ending his life, al
though his jailers are satisfied he had
and has no intention Of doing any
thing desperate.
