Arrangements Made for Ship ment to Vancouver on
 Canadian Boats.

Announcement is made today by Oliver Orange. manager of the Ju- neau Cold Storage Company, that he has made satisfactory arrangement so that beginning on September 1 his firm will be able to buy halibut in unlimited quantities for shipment to Vancouver B. C., on the ships Of the Canadian Pacific Company.
 According to MT Orange, the hali- but market at Seattle is in a demor- alized condition and he is not at this timel nor has been for some time able to buy fish for shipment there and transportation was not availaele on the Canadian boats. Transporta- tion on American boats was available but there was no market at Seattle.
 The fishing fleet having it's head quarters at Juneau has for some ti.ie been lying at it's moorings here. For a time they sold at Sitka, but the booth Fisheries Company there stepped buying. They have started again, but the fishermen claim that the price of and cents being paid b-' that company does not allow them tc sell at a profit. so they laid up their boats.
 With the resumption of buying here, about 15 boats, whose ownees ana crews have their homes in tn $ city, will resume fishing and seIn2 their fish here.
