pack as it is made. There will be sew
eral thousand Washington fishermen
who will watch the growth of the sal
mon trust with great deal of interest.
They are the persons who will be the
most affected by the combination.
These men, mostly from Sweden am
Norway, sell their catch to the differ
ent canneries instead of working for
wages. The price which they receive
for their fish varies from Is cents to
10 cents, according to the season and
the amount Of competition between
buyers. In seasons Of extraordinary
runs prices fall as low as six or eight
cents. The Washington Indians spend
three months of every year at salmon
fishing and always sell cheaper than
white fishers. The trust will probably
succeed in lowering the price paid
fishermen by removing competition.
The largest canneries acquired by the
new trust are at Point Roberts, in
Washington, near the British Column
bia line The largest salmon catches
are made in this vicinity. 1t is an
ideal place for reef and trap net fish
ing and we'll in the line of the sockeye
run. In 1855 the United States made a

compartments are arranged at differ
ent elevations. When the apparatus is
thrown into the sea the water passes
through perforations in the bottom of
the cylinder, and, coming in contact
with the carbide, generates acetylene
gas. The gas is conducted through
pipes to burner attached to each COM
partment. When the volume of gas in
the cylinder decreases hydraulic pres
sure opens the valve and allows water
to enter the next compartment to gen.
crate an additional supply of gas. The
gas is lighted electrically and 25 Sec

Having successfully hoated trusts
controlling iron, steel, tobAcco, oil, SUI
gar and a score Of other things manu-
featured or produced in the Fast, the
Wall street trustmakers are reaching
out for lines of trade which have not
get been pressed into q combination,
after the new century fashion. The
savory salmon of the Pacific coast,
from the Columbia river to- Behring
Sea, has for years been the object OF
fierce commercial warfare. With the
formation of the Pacific Packing land
Navigation company which was incor-
porated in New Jersey last week with
capitalization of $32,000,OO0, this
warfare is ended. Fighting companies
to the number of at least fifteen have
been merged into the trust and the
stockholders have ceased to worry or
to cut each others throat for the pos
session of markets. Nearly all of the
big companies in Alaska and Wash
ington which are not already in the
Alaska Packers association combina-
tion have signified their intention OF
Joining the salmon trust. 1t is esti-
mated that they will pack 100000
cases this year, and that without add
ing materially to the canneries already
In operation the pack can be increased
to 100000 cases by next season. Be-
sides the canneries, fish traps, wheels,
and trap nets, the trust absorbs large
fleet of steamers and sailing vessels.
The Pacific Steam Whaling company
has half dozen large steamers, to say
nothing of a score of cannery tugs.
Other of the companies operating in
Alaska own steamers and large sailing
vessels. The Alaska Packers associa-
ton, with headquarters at San Fran
cisco and fishing grounds all along the
western coast, is the rival of the trust,
and lively competition is expected.
J. K. Armsby & Co., who represent the
association in New York, say that
with the purchase of big canning
plant at Anacortes, which has just
been constructed, the Packers associa-
ton will put up so per cent of the
worlds supply of salmon this year.
A fight between the old and new trust
would be interesting, but Wall street
men believe it will be avoided. On

SALMON WHEEL ON A sCOW.

Puget Sound and the rivers flowing
into it salmon fishing and canning
have been carried on successfully for
years. Within the last five years the
increase in the number OF cannerles
has been enormous. The cannerles
are built, as rule, in the center OF the
various fishing grounds and vary IN
size according to the extent OF the
grounds. Nearly every form OF appa-
,ratus known to be adapted to salmon
fishing has been brought into use.
Trap nets were the latest to be intro
duced, but have become recognized as
most effective in salt water, and on
them the trust will depend for the
greater part of its catch. The nets are
hung on heavy frames of permanent
construction. They are placed in shall
low water along the path taken by the
salmon on their way from the sea to
the spawning rivers. There are no
trap nets in the Straits of Juan de
Fuca, because the salmon do not skirt
fithe shores of that channel. The nets
are found, however, on the southern
end of San Juan Island, in Deception
Pass, Canal de Haro, Rosario Strait
and various bays in the vicinity. Purse
nets, which, like the traps, require con-
siderable outlay for operation, are
used further up the sound for the later
drumming species of salmon. The drag
8Eseine is used by the individual fisher
imam, who brings his catch to the near
sIest cannery in his own boat and sells
sssthe fish for few cents apiece. The
s.phenomenal abundance of salmon, the
b perfection to which their preparation
has been carried and above all the firm
hold which the canned product has Sc
cured in the markets throughout the
world, are the reasons which the
United States Commissioner of Fish
and Fisheries gives for the wonderful
growth and success of the salmon in
dustry. Five species are recognized

for wages which would hardly support
white man, even if it were possible to
secure the amount of white labor nee
essary in the large canning districts, in
view of the temporary nature of the
work. Most of the fishing is done by
white men, however, and all positions
of trust in the canneries are held by
them. Many of the Alaskan canneries

quinnat is highest in quality, and with
the steelhead stands most in favor for
the fresh trade. The caneries would
use nothing except sockeye could the
specie be obtained in sufficient numbers
to satisfy their demands. The other
varieties are used to complete the pack
and form the cheaper grades. The
sockeye salmon runs from, six to
twelve pounds in weight, and is popu-

depth and stability of its color and the
firmness of it's flesh. "a The sockeye run

For womcn's Troub1cs. Too.

New Baden, ILL.,, August 12th:-Mrs.
Anton Griesbaum, Jr., has been very
i'll. Female weakness had run her
down SO low that she could not do her
housework. She tried many things,
but got no relief.
Dodd's Kidney Pills, a new remedy,
which is better known here as cure
for Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Dropsy,
and rheumatism, worked like charm
in Mrs. Griesbaum's case. She used
three boxes, and is now new woman,
able to do her work as we'll as ever she
was. Her general health is much i'm
proved, and she has not single symp-
tom of Female Trouble left.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are making a
wonderful reputation for themselves in
this part of the state.

of the salmon pack is taken. Every
fourth year the run of salmon is much
larger than usual, according to the sta
tistics of the last twenty years. The
largest run ever known was in 1897,
when the fish were taken in such
quantities that the Gamers could not
handle more than half the catch. An
other phenomenal run is expected this
year, according to the four-year scale.
On this expectation the salmon trust
is depending for good start. Most Of
the labor employed in the canneries of
Washington and Alaska is Chinese. It
is furnished by contractors living in
San Francisco, Portland and Seattle.
The Chinese are exceedingly expert in
every branch of the business, and work

HOW Mail Neat. pn..enrer,.

The vast difference between the mail
service and the passenger is well illus

over the mountains. When the level
country is reached the mail cars are
cut off and sent ahead. A passenger
leaving the coast may mail letter on
one of these cars on his own train, and
by the time he has reached Chicago he
will find that the letter has already
gone through the Chicago postoftice,
been delivered and is waiting for him
at his hotel.-Gunton's Magazine.
