WORK AT COAST ItATCHERIES
Indications Favorable for In
creased Output There.

Deputy Fish Warden Webster arrived
in the city yesterday fiDm the coast
streams, where he has been looking af-
ter hatchery work. He reports that in
dications are favorable for large out
put although ii is too early as vet to
make any estimates. At the Tillamook
hatchery $4,000 eggs had been taken up
to October and there are Is or 80
days remaining in which to take eggs.
Last year the total output of this plant
was only about $4,000.
Mr.. Webster was indignant when he
learned Of the criticism that had come
from Oregon City because of the alleged
delay in getting work under way on
the fish ladder, He said yesterday that
the fisheries department had secured
the necessary appropriation for the
work and that there was no reason for
the apparent belief that the officials
had lost interest.

SALMON PACKERS BIG LOSS
Personal Differences Said to
Have Cost Them 81, ,OOO,OO

According to the Astoria correspond
ent of the Pacific Fisherman, an excel
lent Seattle publication, Columbia river
packers have lost fully $1,000, ,O0Obecause
Of their failure to agree on opening
prices for Chinook salmon. The diff
Guilty is attributed to personal strife.
The Fisherman's correspondent tells
the following intresting story of the
manner In which the enormous loss
was suffered;
The Columbia river cannerymen
now have their thinking caps on as
they never had before. The fact that
Alaska salmon opened at $3.50, while
the Columbia product opened ct S,35
and the pack of the Columbia has been
sold at that basis, has done more for
the Columbia river salmon industry
than anything else that could have
happened, and 1t was rude shock to
the commercial intelligence of manymen
who had been in the business for
years and have made fortunes nut of 1t,
Three years ago an effort was made to
form combination Of the Columbia
river cannery owners to establish a
price on Columbia river spring pack on
the basis of $3.50 per dozen for tails I,
o. b. Astoria, but 1t was not possible
on account OF the personal dlfferen-
ces OF O number of the canncrymen,
and by the use of the word personal
1t describes the situation that existed.
Last year and the present year similar
efforts were made to establish higher
price, but as no agreements could be
reached contracts were made on basis
of 81. IS for tails. As a matter Of fact
very few tails are packed, except Of the
lower grades, and the choice FISH IN
halves, flats and ovals were sold, twice
over, contingent on the pack before the
season opened,

Tried to Wreck
Stevens Special
Vandals Place Distractions on
Track, but Discovery Pre-.
vents Collision.

Two attempts 10 wreck trains on the
Astoria 4 Columbia River raIIoad were
made Friday night and yesterday but
both were frustrated by timely digcov-
cry Of the obstructions that had been
placed on the track for the purpose OF
ditching tbs trains. Roth attempts
were made on the West Side. and the
impression has gone abroad that SOL
diers were responsible In each case.
With this belief as basis for work,
the matter has been reported to the
officials at Fort Stevens and yIgor-
GUS investigation viii be conducted.
The first act Of vandalism occurred
Friday night at Hammond A long
rock train was being backed down the
track from Warrenton when the brake
man observed pile Of logs and fence
rails on the track. He signaled TO
stop the train and the engineer succeed
ed In preventing the collision that 9TH
erwise would have ensued.
Examination disclosed the fact that
the track haa been piled high with OBJ
structions. The rails had been torn
from the fence that surrounds Frank
CuBningham's home Mt Hammond, and
the logs had been rolled onto the track
from the side Of The road. Had the
rock train collided with the pile 1t un-
doubtedly would have been derailed,
with probable serious consequences.
The second effort Of the trainwreck-
ers was made yesterday morning, at
almost precisely the same spot. A pile
OF logs and old lumber was discovered
to have been placed on the track just
before the passenger train which leaves
Astoria at I O'Clock came along. AS in
the previous case. the train was stop
ped in time TO avert collision and de-
raiIment.
The affair has created much excite
ment on the West Side, according to
the statments OF persons who came
over yesterday morning, and every eff
fort win be made to discover the per-
petrators The officers at Fort Stev-
ems were at once acquainted with the
matter and several II them yesterday
made personal examination of the
neighborhood. AS vet there has been
no discovery that would tend to dis
close the identity Of the men involved.
Superintendent MCGUIRE was not in the
city yesterday. nor could statement
be secured from any of the officials OF
the railroad company.
Just what reason any Of the soldiers
could have had for attempting to wreck
the trains Is \ mystery. Close watch
will be maintained and recurrence Of
the attempt viii doubtless result in the
appreh 9nsion of .he guilty persons.
On Friday night several residents OF
Hammond were awakened by the noise
created by men who afflicted the town
with their presence, and some of the
women there were badly frightened.
'rhe impression prevailed at the time
that the iisturbers were soldiers from
the fort.

HIS BODY WAS CUT IN TWAIN
Team Scared at . Train and Throw Him
Right Under the Cruel
Wheels.

Indianapolis, Feb. 4.-John ]. Lor-
tus, "a years old, city fireman, met
death Monday under the wheels of
the Western express of the Big Four's
P. and E. division. LOTUS was. Or
dered to take a supply wagon from
the engine house and 90 to the rail-
way for a load of baled hay. He
went and as the Western express ap-
preached was in the wagon, then al
most loaded with baled hay.
When the express approached, the
engineer blew the whistle for the
White river bridge. The whistle fright
ened the team attached to the wagon.
and the horses started to run. They
whirled quickly and the load Of hay
overturned, throwing LOTUS on the
track directly in front of the engine.
His body was caught under the pilot
and before the engineer could stop his
train, the wheels had passed over him,
cutting it in twain.
