THE SUPPLY OF SALMON,


An oregonian Gamer makes some
surprising statements in regard 70 the
efficacy ~ the present system Of arti-
6clal propagation Of salmon. He
claims that It is detrimental to the in
dustry: that the business Is on the de-
cline. and will decline unless retaining
stations are provided and the fishing
season is reduced from four TO three
moRths: that hatchery work is being
}. 0YerisRs. that the FISH should be Civ
en- chance 10 spawn nitu,s.N.' 'ha'
..here have been absolutely no results
from the work at the hatcheries. and
that the marvellous catch " the past
season was not due 70 hatchery work.
These statements are all the more sur
prisinC inaSmuch as the run VI lSol
has been quite generally attributed 20
the good work done by the tsh COM
missioners. and that he latter have
faith in themselves IS shown by the
fact that their future work is being
planned on large scale and the Ore
gon fish commission al ne will Gistrib"
ute soocn o0l fry next year. However,
at the coming session Of the oregon
legislature an effort will he made 70
eliminate Arrl from III open season.
for We are informed that the idea is
gaining ground that II the fish which
enter the rivers during that month
ara re~mitted 20 reach the spawning
grounds the supply Of early salmon
will he increased by natural and with
out the necessity II using artificial
means This NAV be true. yet We are
inclined 20 the belief that nature has
been and can be always materially aid
ed by artificial propagation and we are
in favorof letting this GOOD work 80 on
Nature Is not injured. at least when
supplemented by accepted scientific
propagating methods.-New York Fish
ing Gazette.
The Gazette IS slightly In error in
rs understanding OF the theory ad-
vanced and in its deductions. The
claim is not made that artificial propa
CATION is detrimental except in that
the work Of hatcherias makes It practi-
cany impossible for fish to spawn

grounds are almost entirely mon1po-
iized for the artificial method This
idea was only recently advanced
through the columns Of tn Astorian
by W. H. H. Reed. Of Co-b4t,. Ore,
and seems a most reasonable conclu-
sion. The necessity Of retaining sta
tions is so apparent that both the
oregon and Washington commissions .
will install them. II being conceded .

ANOTHER FIRE AT BEAUMONT.
The HOgg-Swnyne Tract in Flames
and Many Derricks Burned-Ee-
ported Loss of Twelve Lives.

Beaumont, Tex. Oct. 7.-Midnight.
Another great fire, more disastrous
than the conflagration of a few weeks
ago, is sweeping over the oil fields
here tonight, causing a property loss
of thousands of dollars and possible
loss of life. 1t is reported that y
persons have perished, but the report
can not be confirmed at this hour.
The fire broke out shortly before IL
o'clock. and with remarkable rapidity
it spread to the many derricks in the
Hogg-Swayne tract. The encroach-
ment of the flames was so rapid that
many people were caught in the fiery
path, and at midnight it is reported
that II persons have perished and
that the fatalities may reach 20. The
entire Hogg-Swayne tract. comprising
one of the largest sections in the oil
fields, will in all probability be
burned. Forty or more of the large
derricks have been destroyed by the
flames. At this hour the fire is
spreading, and the property loss will
be heavy. The entire oil field pre-
sents a brilliant spectacle, as the
flames grow brighter and brighter.

GETTING TROOPS READY.
All the Pennsylvania Soldiers to BE
in the Field by Thursday.

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. s.-General
orders placing the entire national
guard of Pennsylvania on duty in the
strike region were issued Tuesday at
division headquarters. The orders
designate the location of the three
brigades and all of the state troops
will be in the field by Thursday. No
effort is being made to get the troops
on duty within any special time limit,
it being the desire of the general offi-
GERS to allow the soldiers to arrange
their private matters before going in
to the field. Col. Richardson is direct
ing the shipment of camp equipage
from the state arsenal.

Coid-Blooded Murder.

Tom Porter, colored laborer, was
murdered in cold blood by VIII Lee,
also eolored. in restaurant at Little
Rock. The killing was witnessed by
number of negroes who were in the
restaurant at the time, eating supper.
According to their story it was wholly
unprovoked, Porter not even knowing
Lee, and he. did not speak a word to
him before Lee stabbed him in the
neck with, supposedly. pocket knife.
Further inquiry developed the fact
that there was woman in the case.
though Porter was by no means to
blame. When Porter returned to the
restaurant from work he went to the
kitchen to wash his face. The girl
with whom Lee was enamored was in
the kitchen and Porter spoke to her
in a friendly way. This angered Lee,
who, without a word of warning.
stuck his pocket knife into Porter S
throat.

DYNAMITE OUTRAGES.
Complaint Made to Gen. Goblin of
Dynamite Outrages.

Shenandoah, Pa, Oct. S.-Mrs.
kukiewicz, of Brownsville, near here.
called on Gen. Goblin, at headquarters,
Tuesday morning, and reported to
him that her hoE-e was partly de-
stroyed by a dynamite explosion bout
one o'clock in the morning. She said
the explosion set fire to the house and
between the fire and the wreck caused
by the explosion the damage to the
house is SO great that she was COM
PEELED to move out with her family 1t
was reported to the general that the
explosion was determined upon by
the Lithuanian local of Brownsville
Provost Marshal Farquhar, in com
mand of a squad from the Second
City Troop, went to Brownsville to
make an investigation. kuklewicz is
employed at Shenandoah colliery
In speaking of the general orders
in connection with the calling out of
the entire guard, Gen. Goblin says he
desires to call special attention to the
following clause: He will arrest all
persons engaging i'll acts of violence
and intimidation and hold them un-
der guard until their release will not
endanger the public peace"
This, he says, will dispose of hear
ings before justices of the peace in
the matter of these arrests ard ought
to have a good effect

AT STRIKE HEADQUARTERS.
Speculation as to Effects of ROose.
velt's Request.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. s.-The two
principal features of the anthracite
coal strike, which claimed public at
tention in the coal fields, Tuesday,
were: Will the miners yield to the
desire of the president of the United
States that they return to work and
investigate afterwards, and will the
mine operators be able to carry out
their promise to produce enough coal
to relieve the situation if given the
protection of the full military power
of the state? After most careful
inquiry among the district officers
(not including the district presidents
who are in Buffalo) and the rank and
file of mine workers, it was found
that sentiment is strongly against ac-
cepting the presidents proposition in
its present form. AS to the other feat
ure of the situation as it now exists,
opinion is divided and will remain so
until the real test comes.
The. presidents message to Mr..
Mitchell became known here Tues
day afternoon, and it was earnestly
discussed by the striking miners and
citizens generally. 1t is positively
known to those who are close to the
officers of the union that President
Mitchell and his district presidents
have all along been opposed to the
men returning to work without some
concessions, but whether they are
still so inclined with the president
appealing to them can not be Off
cially stated.

Mitchell Not Favorable.

Buffalo, n. Y, Oct. S.-Mr. Mitchell,
Tuesday afternoon, positively de-
clined to discuss the request made by
President Roosevelt that Mitchell use
his influence to induce the miners to
resume work with a promise of the
appointment of commission TO in
vestigate the miners grievances. 1t
was learned from reliable source,
however. that Mr.. 4iitchell does not
regard the proposition favorably, and
that he viii decline to ask the miners
to resume work under the conditions
stipulated.
