Hundred Apiece.

Immediately after passing sentence

SALMON HATCHERY.
American Company to Build One In
British Columbia.

Westminster, B. c., Sept. 25-John
Crawford, fisheries superintendent for
the satte of Washington, was in the
city during the day and stated that he
had agreed upon a site for large fish
hatchery which the canneries of the
neighboring state propose to erect in
this province.
Hatcheries on Columbia river do not
apparently help the trapmen and some
time ago the state of Washington made
a proposition to the provincial govern
ment for permission to erect salmon
hate? cries in British Columbia, but the
proposition meeting with opposition
from local Gamers and fishermen, per-
mission was withheld. Now the can
ners propose another way. These
Americans will organize joint stock
company under the laws of British Col
umbia and erect hatchery as bust
ness proposition.
The site selected for the hatchery is
on Pool creek. a tributary of Lillooet
river, which flows into Harrison lake
near its head. 1t is stated that the
new hatchery will have capacity OF
loo, 900 900 young salmon per annum.
The government hatchery at Bon Ac-
cord has a capacity of but 10000, 200
yearly.

ON THE TRUST ISSUE.
Former Gov. BOies will Make Race
in HendersOn's District.


Waterloo, Ia, Sept. 25.-Former
Governor Horace Boies has made public
his letter of acceptance of the Demo-
cratic nomination for congress in the
Third district, now represented by
Speaker Henderson. The letter is de-
voted entirely to the trusts and the tar
if, and the only adequate remedy for
the evil with which trusts are charged
is declared to be the removal of the
tariff on trust-made products. He de.
clares the fruits question to be the most
important that now agitates the public
mind. The letter says in part:
"The teachings of Democrats log
ically lead them to believe that our
protective tariff system has made posi-
BILE the organization of these trusts, and
so long as it is continued they also be-
lieve it will furnish Adefensive breast
work behind which they can find shell
ter from every shaft that could reach a
vital part.
"The futility of legislation other
than tariff reduction in restraint of
such action (the alleged methods of
trusts is to them demonstrated by the
fact that the great bulk of our trusts
have been openly organized, in the face
of antitrust laws, carefully prepared
and incorporated into the statutes of
the nation and many of the states"

GOOD ROADS DISCUSSION.
Men From All Western Washington
will Meet in Seattle.

Seattle, Sept. 25.-Secretary Meikle
reported to the Chamber of Commerce
that arrangements were now being
made for the good roads convention to
be held in Seattle Oct. 8 and 10. Con-
trary. to expectations, it will be impos-
sible to have the good roads train come
to Seattle this year. The officials of
the Great Northern say it would be
useless to bring 5A.e%rain out here in
rainy weather, for the road-making
machinery will not work in the mud.
Secretary Meikle has been collecting
the names of all county commissioners,
road supervisors and prominent citizens
who are interested in the matter of
good roads. from every section in the
state west of the Cascade mountains.
Urgent invitations will be sent to all of
them to attend the convention. James

SUPPLY DEPOT
GEN. RANDALL RECOMMENDS ONE
FOR SEATTLE
Sound City Has Many Advantages
Over San FranciscO...BOthR Rail
and Ocean Haul Would he Con.
Siderably ShOrtened...Other Rec
concentrations.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The neces-
sity Of establishing fully equipped de-
pot for military supplies at Seattle is
urged upon the war department by Gen
eral George NJ. Randall, commanding
the Department of the Columbia, in
his annual report, made public yester-
day. If this project should be carried
out it would deprive the department
authorities of their principal argument
heretofore used against the shipment of
troops to the Philippines by way of Sc
attic as we'll as by way of San Fran
cisco.
Whenever the departemnt has been
urged to favor the Seattle route on ac-
count of the shorter distance by rail
from many Eastern points and because
of the much shorter ocean voyage, the
department has made the excuse that
the San Francisco route is preferred by
reason of the fact that the government
has large depot for supplies at the
California port General Randall now
urges that depot be established at Sc
attic, similar to the one at San Francis
co He also recommends that Seattle
be made the home port for transports
engaged in carrying supplies and
troops from the Pacific coast to Alaska.
The report of General Randall gives
a review in detail of the various mill
itary posts in Washington and Alaska,
recommending, among other things, that
the department headquarters at Van
couver be enlarged and that Fort
Wright. at Spokane, be increased in
size so as to accommodate full regi-
men: instead of a battalion OF soldiers.
General Randall throws some light
on the heretofore somewhat mysterious
abandonment of the project for build
ing military road from Valdes to Ea-
gle. on the upper Yukon. For the first
time he makes public some extracts
from his report on the subject, made to
the war department in December, 1901.
1t appears that the reason he gave
then was that the great expense of
building the road was not warranted
by the military needs of Alasaka. At
the same time, he says, the govern
ment has already expended something
like $780, 900 on this project.
Ill hAS pi'oShe poie thS SNh>'i"A es~'Nso'
see no reason to modify my rec
concentrations of that date. The mil
itary needs of the country do not justi
fy the exenditure which would be re-
quired to build wagon highway across
the territory, nor are there any other
reasons to warrant, in my opinion, such
an outlay. The interior is unquestion-
ably rich in copper and gold deposits,
but in going farther than 1t has 81
ready, the government would, it seems
to me. be departing from its estab,
lished policy of the past In the event,
however, of congress approving such
work, and making the necessary APP
preparation therefor, such appropria-
ton should be included, think, in the
sundry civil bill, instead of being
charged against the army

developed as result of the trolley car
accident at Pittsheld. Mass. He stood
the journey from indianapolis we'll
and when he was carried in a wheel
chair from the train to his carriage he
was in excellent spirits and appeared
to be free from any pain. With Mrs
Roosevelt, the president was driven
directly to the temporary White House
on Jackson place, Were, according to
the present arrangements. he will re.
nam until the wound is healed and he
is able again to be on his feet.
Indianapolis. Ind, Sept. 24.-Presi.
dent Roosevelt's trip to the west came
to sudden and untimely end in this
city last night. He was found to be
suffering from a swelling of the left
leg. between the knee and the ankle
that required immediate attention, and
instead of being taken to the train tc
continue his journey to Fort Wayne
and Milwaukee, he was conveyed to st.
Nincent's hospital, where he was oper.
ated on. The operation occurred at
3:45 o'clock, and lasted only a short
time, when he was taken to a private
room in the hospital to rest.
After taking light luncheon, at
1850 p. III. he was. conveyed on q
stretcher to his train, which had been
backed up on a y near the hospital,
and at 10 minutes to 8 o'clock the
train left for Washington.
The swelling of the presidents leg
which made an operation necessary
was occasioned by bruise he received
at the time of the trolley accident at
Pittsfield, Mass, when the president
carriage was run into and demolished
by a car. Besides being injured in the
face and across the eye, the president
at that time received blow upon the
inner part of the left leg, between the
ankle and knee, but he paid no atten.
ton to it, ignoring it as slight bruise
not worth talking about. For several
days he took no heed of it. but finally
it began to pain him so much as to en-
force his attention. After starting on
his Western trip he determined that
DR.. Lung, who was aboard the train,
should examine it. The doctor did sc

THE KINGS CONDITION.

Misgivings are expressed in many
quarters concerning the kings strength
being adequate for even the curtailed
ceremony in Westminster Abbey on
August 9. He has been for five weeks
in recumbent position, and the London
Standard is informed that he has not got
on his feet yet, but is confined to his
couch. though he is able to move himself
upon it, His wound is not healed yet.
In short, according to the paper, he is
still an invalid, and, though the prospects
of his being able to safely go through the
coronation on Saturday week are much
more assured than they were, he is only ex-
pected to do it as an invalid. 1t tran
spires that, though the date of the coro-
nation was set with the doctors consent,
they have not committed themselves to
any direct statement The king aboard
his yacht, however, has made uninter-
rupted progress and the risks of compli-
cations have steadily diminished. The
only danger apprehended in the ordinary
course is a chill, to which convalescents
are rather liable. The prominence given
by such cautious paper as the Standard
to the continued weakness of the king is
sure to revive the gloomy conjectures re-
garding the coronation. 1t is certain,
however, that his majesty is determined
to go through the ceremony on August 9
if it is physically possible for him to do
so, even though he has to be carried.
The only feature of the case which might
affect the deepest desire to get the coro-
nation over is the fact that the date is
only twelve days distant, and the wound
of the operation is not yet healed.

FROM RICHMOND.

The House of Delegates held long
busy and interesting session yesterday.
The attendance was not large and there
were very few visitors. The Senate was
not in session, having. adjourned yester-
day until today. The House almost
completed the work of its calendar,
and it is likely that the session will end
today or tomorrow.

cussion of considerable interest the ml-

was rather surprising that after this in
cident the republican members voted for
nearly all of the amendments TO the
election laws that came from the Senate.
