FLEET WILL BE FORMIDABLE TweDty New Vessels Now io Various Stages of Advancement, and Ma terials are Being Gathered for Thirty-Five Others. New York, Oct. 13. A dispatch to the Tribune from Washington says : The remarkable rapidity with which , the naval power of the United States is beinz increased at the present time may be realized when it is stated that fifty five war vessels are now nnder contract for the government, and their ton nape far exceeds that of the vessels building mt any one time during the civil war. This vast construction program, which lias excited more attention abroad than home, bas been authorized gradually by congress, until the vessels soon to be completed will place the United States . third in rank among the sea powers. In addition to the enormous fleet, in cluding auxiliaries, actually in comple tion at the present time, twenty veseels are in various stages of readiness, and the ship-buildere are hurriedly gather ing material for thirty-five others. Of the fifty-five vesse!e,eigbt are first-class, heavily armored, sea-.'oing battleships, thirty-eight are torpedo-boats, four are monitors and one is a powerful cruiser. Chief Conetructior Hicborn has com pleted a tabulated statement, showing the degree of completion of the twenty veseels now nearly ready for commission or rapidly approaching that condition, from which it appears that seventeen of these vessels have already been launched and five others will be afloat before the first of the year. DEATH OF MRS. GEER AT OMAHA Wife of the Governor Elect of Ore con Expired Suddenly this Morning Heart Disease the Cause. Omaha, Oct. 13. Mrs. Nancy Geer, wife of T. T. Geer, governor elect of the state of Oregon , died at Barket hotel this morning, shortly after midnight, from disease of the heart. A physician w5 eummoned when the attack seized ' Mrs. Geer, but she was beyond help. The remains will be started for Salem this afternoon. Mrs. Geer was for some time affected with heart trouble. When she arrived in the city Tuesday with her husband, she was tired, and this probably brought on the fatal attack, although she was about the hotel even yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Geer were married twenty-eight years ago in Union county. Mrs. Geer was formerly a Mrs. Batte. She was born in Missouri and married at a very early age, coming in 1864 with her father and husband acroes the plains to Oregon, settling in Union county. The following year Batte mysteriously disappeared, and from that day to now no word from him has ever been heard. Five years later, when preparing forjber marriage with Mr. Geer, Mrs. Batte, as m matter of precaution formally obtained a divorce. . " Millions GlTen Away!

Colombia Kiver Pish Find Themselves Fairly Kepresented at the Legls- .. latere. Could the fish of the Columbia river, realize what a eensalion they have created in the Oregon legislature they would not only feel themselves to be "in the swim" but refuse to associate with the "codfish aristocracy," considering themselves bine bloods, as well as blue backs. They ' would no doubt weigh themselves on their own scales and come up the Columbia with their heads in the air. One of the most important bills passed this session is Curtis', fish bill, which a dispatch from Salem says repre sents the combined wisdom and labor of such well-posted men as Representa tives Curtis and Young, cf Clateop county; Representative Myers, of Mult nomah ; Roberts, of Wasco ; Senator Ful ton, of Astoria, and State Fish and Game Protector McGuire. Every feature of it bas betn carefully considered. It bas been revised and re-revised. It meets the approbation of the fishermen and annerymen, and it protects Oregon's fish. This is about all that can reason ably be expected of such a law. The act provides for a fish commission er to be elected by the state legislature at the present session for a term of tour years, at a salary of $2500 per year and $1750 expenses per annum. An effort was made to leave the eelecticn of the commissioner in the hands of the gov ernor, but it failed. The act further provides for the ap pointment of three deputies by the fish commissioner at a salary of $3 per day for the actual time employed, and their traveling expenses. These deputies, however, are not to be employed over 100 days in the year each. A board of fish commissioners is created by the act. This is to be com posed of the governor, eecretary of state and state fish commitisioner. This board is clothed with power to eelect sites for and erect hatcheries, audit all claims and exercise a general supervisionary control over the execution of the laws. The fish commissioner and his deputies are clothed with police power, and etate and justice courts are given concurrent jurisdiction over the law. Right of ap peal from a decision of the fish commis sioner lies only to the state circuit court. The close season for salmon is abridged and an additional open season is created from January 15 to February 15. Provision is made for the licensing of all canneriee, nsh-'vheelB, traps, nets and fishermen. Canneries are divided into eight classes, according to the capacity, and the license ranges from J 100 to S450 per annum. Giilneta are taxed 2.50 per annum, eeines from $10 op, traps $15-and wheels from $15 to $25. Proportionate licenses are provided for all other fishing apparatus. The state is divided into six districts and the license money' collected in each dietrict Is to be devoted to the propaga tionoffish within that district. All moneys collected in licenses are to be de voted exclusively to the propagation of fish, as the salaries and expenses of the fish commissioner and his deputies are to be paid by the state.

Mr. Andrew Canfield died at bis home on Summit Ridge, at 10 o'clock Wednes day evening, Oct. 5, 1898, from a malady of several years standing that terminated in three weeks ot intense suffering. Mr. Canfield waB a native of Canada, where he first saw the light of day, Sept. 24, 1825. He lived in Iowa, being among the pioneers of that state. His father was one of the first to Bettle Jackeon county. He was in the mercantile busi ness a great number of years,' spending a portion of hii time among the rich gold hills of California. He settled at Summit Ridge in 1883, where he re mained to the time of his death. "Unci Andy," as he was familiarly known for miles around, was one of whom too much praise could not be said, for to know him was to love him. He was a member of the Congregational church, Rev. D. V. Poling, of that church hav ing performed the last sad rites that left his time-worn body on the quiet hillside of the I. O. O. F. cemetery at Dufur. Deceased left a wife to mourn his ab sence, but was met in that bright spirit world by two lovely children, who were taken in early childhood. We miss him but would not wish him back, bowing in resignation, knowing that "thou God knowest best." Three Men Folsoned by -Canned Fish- On Saturday evening last J." I. Jones, Charles Young and Walter Furrow, members of a Rainier lodge of the Knights of Pythias, feasted on a lnnch of canned shrimps, clams and lobsters just prior to attending a lodge meeting. ' Jones and Furrow live near Rainier, and Young lived alone in a cabin abont eighteen miles from the town. On Mon day morning the trio were quite sick, constantly growing worse until Tuesday noon, when Jones died. That morning Furrow's friends took him to St. Vincent hospital, where he died yesterday. The news of Jones' death aroused the friends of the surviving men, but at that time Young also was past relief. - He was found dead lying across his bed, without a person near him when called hence. Dr. Cliff, of St. Helens, and two Port land physicians made a post mortem ex amination, finding the men to Lave died from ptomaine poisoning. The Wreck. - Many Dalles people visited the wreck. about a mile above Seufert's place, yes terday, and report a general mixture of things in tbat vicinity. From the pro fusion of yeast cakes here and there it was concluded that tbat article caused the car to 8 well' and gave rise to the wreck. It is reported that Mr. DeHuff is an adept in the art of procuring freight for the company, he having required three cars after the wreck in which to pack one carload of wagon wheels and fixtures. The east-bound train, which arrived here at 5 :30 last evening proceeded to the scene ot the disaster, when the pas sengers from No. 3, west-bound, due here about 7 a. m., were transferred to her and vice versa, so' that the passen gers from No. 3 came through The Dalles at 10:30. The wreck was cleared away and the train which arrives at 11 :30 p. m. from Portland passed over the track about 1 o'clock.

Yesterday's Oregonian says, in regard to wheat : "Liverpool bas shown quite an improvement, but has not yet reached a figure that will give the farmer 50 cents, although some epecnlative buying at that figure is reported in the interior. Freights have advanced fully 2 cents a bushel since last week, and promise to take op some more of the advance that is expected. This extra 2 cents would have probably dislodged a considerable quantity of wheat tbat has ' been held for 62 cents in Portland had not the shipowner stepped in and claimed his share of the advance. "Yesterday 60 cents was freely paid for Walla Walla, with Valley goingat 62 cents, and bluestem at 63 cents.
