The fishing season commences April
Is. and along the waterfront there Is
much activity az a result. Fishing
boats have been placed In the water
and the cannery tenders. gasoline and
sailing craft. are also being prepared
for the work. For months past the
canneries and coldstorage plants have
been under course OF Improvement, and
there Is not cannery on the lower
river to which extensive repairs have
not been made. Many thousands OF
dollars have been expended by the
packers and other dealers, and II the
supply OF fish is as good this year as
was the case last season the pack
win be a large one. AS has been the
custom OF packers for several sea-
sons past, the early fish viii all go into
pickle, and the late runs will be de-
pended upon for canning purposes. An
optimistic feeling prevails, both among
packers and fishermen. and the season
is looked forward to with every cons
fidence that II will prove a successful
one

o. f. Morton, the real estate man, is
indignant because of the failure of the
city officials to cause the water to be
drained from the lot at the corner of
Sixth and Bond streets. The property
belongs to Secretary of state Dunbar.
Recently number of mischevious
boys amused themselves by choking
the drainage pipe with old sacking.
The prank resulted in the flooding Of
the lot. At the last meeting of the
council it was stated three or four
prominent city officials had visited the
premises for the purpose of determin-
ing upon the best method of abating
the nuisance, but like the flag, the
water is still there. Morton says he
yesterday sold the house on Sixth
street which occupies the lot adjoin-
ing the flooded property no less than
three times, and that in each instance

Crazy Sailor
Runs AmuCk
Frank Morrison, Of the Perry,
Starts Out With Gun TO
Commit Murder.

Frank Morrison. a sailor from the
revenue cutter Perry ran amuck last
night. but, fortunately, did not kill any
one, and himself escaped deserved
death, Morrison went into the Tele-
phone saloon, where he received and
neglected to pay for drink. Later he
wanted the bartender to sell him a
pint of whisky for 20 cents, and when
the request was denied. made demon
stration. Among the men in the house
at the time was stranger, whom the
police identified as a very respectable,
Industrious man, and whom the
drunken sailor evidently regarded as a
particular friend Of the bartender Fail
ing to get the liquor the sailor left the
house, and outside struck the stranger
In the face. Morrison then ran to a
Bond street shooting gallery, where he
managed to get possession of re-
volver. Returning, he took shot at
the stranger. but the bullet went wild.
He stood deflantly on the sidewalk for
some time. but did not shoot again.
Officers oberg and Thompson
learned of the matter and started out
to find the sailor. AS they were going
toward Astor street they heard q po-
lice whistle. and running in the direc-
tion from which the sound came, un-
expectedly encountered Morrison, who
came around the corner of Bond and
Ninth streets with the revolver in his
hand. He ran into the arms of the
officers, who took him to Jail.
After the shooting in front OF the
Telephone saloon Morrison went to the
Anchor saloon on Astor street. where
he created more or less CONSERVATION
with the gun. When officer Lindsey
entered the place to arrest the fellow,
the bartender, August Lanaeus. grap-
Piled with the officer, saying; you
must not take any man out Of this
saloon" While the policeman and bar
tender were scuffiing-a circumstance,
by the way, which constituted a peni-
tentiary offense on the part of the bar
tender-Morrison escaped. but was cap
tured by Officers oberg and Thompson.
He win be tried today.

Sheriff Linville yesterday made
rather a peculiar arrest. A stranger
was conducting himself in highly
disorderly manner near Commercial
and Fourteenth streets when the
sheriff came along. The man was
intoxicated and when the sheriff
suggested to him tht he get
onto himself became very saucy. The
fellow wanted to be arrested, but
when the sheriff got hold of him he
struggled with might and main. Mr..
Linville was equal to this emergency
and soon had the man lying over lum-
ber wagon, the driver of which was
instructed to proceed to the city jail
The spectacle of a man over a barrel
and lumber wagon at the same time
occasioned more or less interest. Judge
Anderson will hear the story in the
police court this afternoon.
