Stewart, of tha Su preme Court of Idaho, considered: ona of tha moat eminent Jurlata In the Northwest, who haa been In falling; health for tha past year, waa operated upon In Baltimore Wednesday for spas modic torticollis, a drying; and contracting- of the muscles of the neck, from which ba haa been a sufferer for the past six months. Tha disease became so serious that Judge Stewart was forced to leave the bench and consult the Mayoa at Rochester. Minn., who re ferred him to Dr. J. M. T. Finney, a specialist. The lllhealth of Judge Stewart means his early retirement from tha Supreme Bench In Idaho, say his friends. Hla recovery, however. Is said to be assured by the operation. Tha 11th Legislature paved tha way for Judge Stewart's resignation and also paid him a marked tribute through paasage of a bill to reimburse him for loaa of aalary while ill and full pay for tha remainder of hla term of office In the event he resigns. This Is the first time a legislative act of thla kind haa been done, and la considered a precedent. No man has enjoyed a wider reputa tion or la more popular with the masses In this state than Judge Stewart. Ris ing to the Supreme bench from the District Court, where he served for many years. Judge Stewart soon dem onstrated his ability. But one great ahadow hangs over Chief Justice Stewart, and that Is the peculiar disease that affects Mrs. stew art, and which has for a year baffled the best physicians of the United States.

Mrs. Stewart was suddenly stricken with the strange disease while attend ing a reception a year ago. Her mind became a blank. Everything known to medical science was resorted to In effort to restore her health. Although her mind appeared to have suffered the most. Mrs. Stewart's health seems good. She seems to hear and to see. but that Is all. It was this sudden and strange attack upon his wife that Is believed to have weakened tha health of the Chief Justice. SALMON PRICES INCREASE Packers Expect to Receive Much More for Canned Product. ASTORIA. Or., March 16. (Special.) While It will probably be several weeks before the Columbia River Packers will meet to flx the selling price for this year's pack of the canned product, advices received from New York and other consuming centers In dicate that the rate will be considerably higher than last year. The opening price for the 1910 pack was $1.90 a dozen for flats, J1.75 a dozen for tails and J 1.10 a dozen for halves. Before the season ended, how ever, figures far In advance of those were offered for Chlnooks, and In fact the market was so bare that last Fall as high as J1.90 was bid for Alaska reds to fill contracts. The market is at the present time almost entirely de void of canned salmon of better grades and dealers believe that for the strictly first-class chlnooks of this year's pack, the prices will be In the neighborhood of 2.25 a dozen for fiats, $2 for tails and 11.17 V4 for halves. On the other hand the market conditions for cold storage are not so encouraging. VANCOUVER PLANS FAIR Association Incorporated "With Cap- ltallzatlon of $15,000. VANCOUVER. Wash., March Is.
