ed), that in the course Of the inter-
views had recently with Trustee Paul
Wessinger, Of the Weinhard Estate,
at Portland, by the group Of promi.
nent Astorians who went there 10
confer with him in the matter Of the
early resumption OF work on the con
struction OF the splendid "Weinbard-
Astoria" hotel in this city, the rep
resentative Of the big estate quite
eandidly stated that while the estate
was perfectly able to finance the pro
ject its ready funds were more Or less
tied up in investments that could not
be invaded at the present time, and
asked il this city could furnish as
much as $4,000 Of available funds,
at 4 per cent, for a reasonable time.
And to this important query an i'm
mediate affirmative was vouched BY
one Of the local bankers who was OF
the visiting committee from here.
Since their return to Astoria, this
matter has been under consideration
I'm banking circles here, and the loan
has been 50 distributed as TO make II
easy upon the four banks at interest,
and the negotiations will shortly be
consummated. whereby the ready
money, in that voiumne, will be fur
nished the trustees OF the Weinhard
Estate. Astoria would not stop at
anything OF that sort and the ceIerity
with which the matter has been ar
ranged and closed, is proof Of the
very strong concern this city has in
the up-rearing of this fine essential
Improvement Everyone will be glad
to know that this item of the affair
was so promptly met and disposed
Of and that it yields even further
guaranty Of the immediate conclusion
of the promising project,
As nearly as can be aseertained the
Of the loans made in this,
behalf, is as follows: The Scandinav-
ian-American Bank, $1,000; The First
National Bank, $4,000; The Astoria
National Bank $l2.s00; and The AS
toria Savings Bank. $22,s00. With
this deal closed there is, apparently, !
no sort of impediment in the way OF
the early completion of the beautiful
hotel promised by the Weinhards

VIII Demand Bonds

I
Nels Peterson, the man who was
struck on the head with an ak, was
again up and walking around at ST
Mary's hospital yesterday, and he is
recovering so rapidly that il will prob
ably only be matter OF a few days
before he will be able TO get out,
While no definite steps have been
taken in the matter yet, il is known
that Peterson will also be placed un,
der bonds as witness in the case,
for there Is the fear that inducements
might be made to get him out Of the
country The other witnesses are
already under bonds, though very
slight ones. There is now one case
in circuit court which has dragged
along for several years and probably
will never be brought to trial for the
reason that the witnesses have all
fled the county and state The sus-
picion that they were induced to go
away has often been voiced, Bob"
Davis, the man who hit Peterson, Is
still in the county Jail, where he takes
things calmly and with no outward
interest in the remarkable recovery
of Peterson.

Re-Platting The Cemetery

I 49, = -NAeN@@AGa S@@N (NA@~NNNsI
City Surveyor Tee has been down
to the Ocean View cemetery several
days recently looking into matters
there, There are various changes
that viii have to be made, and one
thing desired is to ascertain with ex-
actness just what graves and lots
have been sold in years gone by. 1t
seems that quite a few years ago the
records in relation to the cemetery
were not kept with the exactness
that would have been expected in
such matter, and there are said to
be many graves of which the rec
ords have been lost or are so badly
mixed up that little can be told of
them, OF late years, however, the
records are kept finely under an ex-
cellent system. It is also proposed to
lay out in regular form the old part
or the cemetery, where many graves
we're dug years ago, and to do this
will require that the cofins be taken
up and changed over into the new
part. 1t is also stated that the Pot
ters' Field is not in the right place;
it is right at the main entrance in a
prominent situation. It is also said
that the county has never made any
arrangement with the city for bury
ing the county poor in the city ceme-
terry After short time. it is prob
able the whole matter of the ceme-
terry viii be in most excellent shape,
for Mr.. Tee and City Auditor Ander-
son are both Strengthening the mat
ter out in fine shape.
