P. A. E. r. R. Bonds are Sold.

President C. A. Cushing OF the Port
Angeles Eastern Railway company is
in the city. and brings the best news
yet received in regard to his company.
When seen at the Olympia hotel last
evening by an Olympia representative
Mr.. Cushing stated that he had been
notified that the entire issue of the
bonds of his company had been taken
by New York capitalists and portion
of them were now on their way here to
be signed.
The sale of the bonds, Mr. Cushing
stated, was due to the favorable report
of Engineer Bogue, who recently went
over the proposed route of the railroad
Construction work will begin not
later than April I, and it is thought by
the promoters that not more than nine
months will see the road completed
and trains running from this city to
Port Angeles. The plan at present is
to begin construction work at both ends
of the line, and propably at other
points along the way.
Mr.. Cushing states for some time
past the company has been assured
portion of the necessary funds, but
that they would not undertake con-
struction work until the entire amount
had been secured, which is now an &C.
complished fact.
The right-of-way problem is no me-
nance, as most of it has been secured.
and the officials state that the condem-
nation laws OF this state make it i'm
possible for anyone to block the work
of refusing right-of-way. Mr.. Cushing
is accompanied by his wife, and they
will return to Seattle today.-Olym-

Gambling Houses Raided.

The gambling houses in Olympia
were raided Saturday night and many
arrests made. Rev. ]. S. McCallum is
at the head of the movement. The
Tuesday Olymplan says:
mo one seems to remember any
former arrest of gamblers IN this city,
but from appearances the present raid
will be before the public for, some time.
= Mr.. McCallunip referred to
the raid in his Sunday night sermon
and spoke of the number of people who
would become involved before the case
is finished. He stated that there were
among his hearers at that moment half
dozen who would be compelled to go
on the witness stand, and that at least
one member of his church was among
the. number. This rather startled his
|shearers but it need not particularly
have done so, DIS it is promised that
some rather prominent people will be
| involved before the trouble ceases"

Another Railroad for Port Angeles.

Port Angeles is talking of another
railroad. Application has been made
to the city for franchise through the
streets to deep water and terminals for
line which it is announced will be
built from that point along the Straits
of Fuca to Grays Harbor, distance
OF 100 miles. AS yet no action has
been taken in the matter, bnt there is
considerable interest in the project.
%. L. Powell, of that place, was in
the city yesterday and says there is
every prospect that the project is a
genuine one and that the line will be
built this summer, providing there is
no delay in granting the company
what it asks.
"There is good promise that We are
to have another road beside the Port
Angeles Eastern railway" said Mr..
Powell yesterday. "a syndicate of
Eastern capitalists has made appllca-
ton to the city council for franchise
to construct terminals and build tracks
through certain streets to deep water.
AS yet the matter has not been dis
posed of, but there is every probability
that they will be given what they ask.
"The company is composed of Josiah
Quincy, ex-mayor of Boston; G.. HI.
Farrons, counsel for the Western
Union Telegraph company, and ex-
Governor Stone, Of Pennsylvania.
There are also other Eastern capital
lists interested, the names of. whom at
the present time / cannot remember.
1t is their intention to build along the
Straits OF Fuca and thence to Grays
Harbor.
"Their proposition to the city of
Port Angeles apears to be gunuine
one. They offer to deposit in one of
the Port Angeles banks the sum of
$25, 900 as forfeit They agree to
begin work. within ninety days after
the franchise has been granted and to
build and equip nine miles of the line
within nine months.
"The line would pass through one of
the most valuable timber sections in
the state. it'would open up district
that ut the present time is being held
back on account of lack OF transporta-
ton. It would also give TO the city
|of Port Angeles direct rail commuica-
ton with the Sound ports through a
rich country that would be tributary
to our city. With the completion of
the Port Angeles Eastern, which every
one in our section believes will be
finished this year, we would be in as
good position as regards Transports
| ton as any OF the smaller cities in the
state.
"As result OF the application of the
company to the council there has
been an advance in the real estate in
the city. We are having quite . little
Ethoom in this direction.
SThe project is one evolved by COVER
nor Stone. He first came to Port
~
Angeles two years ago. At that time
there was report that he was looking
after timber lands in the Grays Harbol
country for an Eastern syndicate
! However, this does not seem to have
been his purpose. Although he has
Il been in Port Angeles off and on for the
past two years there was no intimation
Of what be was doing until the appli
cation WIS NADER TO the city council.

Wiley company's New Boat,

The Monday Olympian has this t
say of the Wiley Company's new boat
the Dalton: The Wiley Navigation
company's new steamer Dalton arrived
from Seattle last evening and is now
alongside Percival's dock. The Dalton
came in about $50 O'Clock and very
few people knew of her arrival last
evening. The steamer will be thrown
open to the public today and the COM
pany management will welcome visitors
aboard.
The Dalton, with Captain Fred Will
son at the wheel and Chief Engineer
Sam Sutton, left Seattle shortly after
noon yesterday. No efforts were made
to force the speed of the boat, as her
machinery is new and consequently
stiff.
Besides, the Dalton was compelled
to stop for wood enroute. Under all
the circumstances the officers of the
company are satisfied with the trip,
especially as the boat only came off the
ways at Seattle shortly before starting
for this city. Sol Simpson, president
of the Wiley company, F. v. DonneIly
and r. c. Mccormick, of Seattle, were
the only occupants of the cabin on the
trip.
The Dalton is certainly a very
staunch and handsome steamer. She
was built two years ago at Port Blake
ly. The cost of the bare hull of the
boat and machinery was $4,000 and
$4,000 additional was spent on the
finishing of her cabins, which are
finished in white enamel with gold
trimmings. She is $50 feet in length,
has beam of 80 feet and feet depth
of hold. AS compared with the Multi
nomah the Dalton is rs feet longer and
has six feet more beam, and has the
distinction of being the largest stern
w heeler on Puget Sound. In another
respect she is somewhat famous. The
Dalton's cabins exceed by far in
beauty of finish any river steamer in
the northwest It is claimed the
steamer is 16-mile boat.

The citizens were most kind in giving

of the day was due in no small means
to Mr.. Albert Reid IS polite and skillful
service. He had charge of the foun-
tain, and kindly donated his services to
the cause, and the ladies' highly appre-
