SEATTLE, Wash.. .March 1 :. t Spe
cial.) L'ncomproiiaisins: War Iihs broken
out between the Ballard .Manufacturers'
Association and the Seattle Chamber of
Commerce on account of the Lake
"Washington canal, the "Seattle ditch,"
that for nearly 20 years has figured in
The politics of King: County and the
state. The Ballard men declare that
they will kill the canal, and they are
exerting all the powerful influences at
their command to do it.
The warfare has been precipitated
by the retention in the rivers and har
bors bill, now before the Senate com
mittee on commerce, of a paragraph lo
cating the canal lock at the mouth of
Salmon Bay. raising the waters of Sal
man Bay to twice their present surface
area and consequent flooding of 30
manufacturing plants. These enter
prises are valued at $7,500,000. They
omploy 2000 men: and for wages, log
ging and mill supplies they pay out
annually more than $6,000,000, all of
which is srent in Seattle. The owners
f the mills declare that if they fail
to defeat the canal they will move their
plants to Everett The millmen are
backed up by large business houses
in Seattle, whose managers will not
lake the risk of losing valuable trade,
and they are further supported by the
chipping interests and other citizens.
Ballard Protests by Wire.
The Ballard Manufacturers' Associa
tion has sent more tlian a hundred tele
grams to Senator W. P. Krye protesting
against the canal appropriation, and
emphasizing the contention that the im
provement would not be a public bene
fit. Through J. F. Ives, vice-president and
manager of the Stimson Mill Company
and president of the Manufacturers'
Association, the millmen of Ballard
charge against the Chamber of .Com
merce and the promoters of the canal
two distinct violations of agreement.
According to Ives, the first breach of
faith occurred over a King County bond
election providing an issue of $500,000
for the canal.
"When we objected to the bonds,"
said he. "a delegation from the Cham
ber of. Commerce went to Ballard. They
b greed that if we would cease opposi
tion to the bonds they would locate
the lock at the head of Salmon Bay, so
-'.hat the height of the water in the
'ront of the mills would not be dis
'.urbed. As a result of the agreement,
Jre worked for the bonds, and they car
ried. "Iater we were advised that if the
lock was to be placed above the mills,
:fte millmen would be compelled to buy
x site for it. There was no stipula
tion of that kind in the agreement. Our
answer was to carry the bond Issue to
'he Supreme Court, where it was held
o be invalid.
Assessment Dit-trlot Opposed.
"Then followed the creation of a
million-dollar assessment district, and
:he filing of the canal assessment roll
vlth the County Commissioners, who at
.ength refused to sit as a board of
equalization on the ground that the law
containing a provision to that effect
was? unconstitutional. This question
lias also been carried to the Supreme
Court, and has not yet been settled.
"When the canal people sought to
have passed by the Legislature two
hills appropriating $2SO,000 for the
canal, we opposed them at Olympia. A
delegation from the Chamber of Com
merce asked for a conference with or
delegation. They agreed in writing to
locate the lock above the mills in con
sideration of our support of the bills.
We withdrew our opposition, and the
bills passed, and tola.y a steam shovel

riqrht of way between Lake Union and

"But the compact with the millmen
has- been ignored. When Representa
tive Will K. Humphrey went to Wash
ington last Fall, he was accompanied
by Governor McGraw. and later was
Joined by City Engineer R. II. Thom
son. In the rivers and harbors com
mittee Mr. Humphrey encountered
trouble in changing the site of the look,
and, notwithstanding the agreement, he
was inclined to put the lock at the
mouth of the bay. We received assur
ances from Mr. Humphrey and Gov
ernor MrLJraw that if we would let
the bill go through the committee they
would obtain an amendment in the Sen
ate committee on commerce changing
the lock site to a point above the mills.
Amendment Is . Refused.
"But now that the bill Is in commit
tee, of which Senator S. H. Piles is a
member, we are advised that it will
be impossible to secure an amendment;
and we have further been notified in a
letter from Mr. Humphrey that the
Representative will not be able to do
anything at this session toward chang
ing the site. At the same time the
Chamber of Commerce notifies us that
while it will go to any reasonable
length to secure a relocation. It will
take care not to put the appropriation
In jeopardy.
"These acts constitute the second
brwach of faith. No course lias been
left to us except to declare war on the
canal.
"There was gross breach of faith in
putting the bill through the Rivers and
Harbors Committee in the manner I
have outlined. Moreover, as appears
from the report of the committee, the
canal appropriation was approved throush
misrepresentation. According to that re
port. Seattle stands ready and willing
to put up $1,500,000 for excavating the
canal, provided the Government will
spend $2,275,000 for the lock. Let me say
that Seattle is not willing to do anything
of the kind. Of that sum $5o.0O0 is rep
resented by the bonds which have al
rea.dy been beaten in the Supreme Court,
and $1,000,000 is represented by the canal
assessment roll, which tho County Com
missioners have refused to equalize and
which likewise has gone to the Supreme
Court.
"It is my firm conviction that the
construction of the canal would be an
appalling1 -calamity. The project baa not
a single redeeming feature. It is only
SO feet wide, while a modern battleship
Is 05 feet beam. It would help no one
except a few individuals who own rejtl
estate advantazeously located.
Lake Vnion Fill Proposed.
"We assert that an inestimable boon
would result, if half or a third of the
immense sum proposed to be squandered
upon this useless canal were applied to
the filling of bake Union. With J4.00O.O0O,
Queen Anne Hill on the west and Denny

the present valuation of say fciO.OOO an

DRUNK'S POCKETS RIFLED
Vancouver Man Taken In Tow on
Ilobbery Charge.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. March 19. (Spe
cial.) Harry Johnson, charged with rob
bery, was arrested today while hiding in
a boxcar in the railroad yards. Last
evening about 10 o'clock he was seen to
walk behind Frank Fellows, who was
drunk, and rifle his pockets. V. C. Miller,
who says he saw the robbery in front
of the St. Elmo Hotel, gave chase, and
when he was almost ready to grasp the
fleeing robber, he was compelled to dodge
a bottle of whisky, thrown by Johnson.
Fellows was arrested Thursday. He
had been working for Mrs. Woodward
at Orchards, who telephoned the police
that Fellows had attempted to sell a
horse and cart, which she permitted him
to take to this city. George Reyter. who
lives on the "St. John road, said that
Fellows offered the outfit for $1S0, and
later for $S0. but he did not buy as Fel
lows was drunk. The horse and cart
were found in a barn last night by John
Secrist. Chief of Police.
CELESTIAL ANGLER AT SEASIDE HAS
SIXTH SENSE IN TRACING FISH
Sam Lee Finds Trout at Will, and Is as Successful With Clams, Others Waiting in Vain for Luck Where He Finds
Abundance Chinaman Seals Secret.
SKASIDE, Or.. March 19. (Special.)
Sain Lee, clamdlgger, expert
fisherman. a Seaside . character,
owes his wonderful success with suc
culent bivalves and all manner of fish,
both sea and fresh water, to putting
himself in the place of the fish and cal
culating its course of action under any
conditions.
It is quite true that Sam himself,
were he to be queried on this, would
deny the charge, possibly with soma
amusement, but the fact remains that
the veteran Xjhinaman can, by calculat
ing the influence of currents, availabil
ity of food supply and other influences,
return with loaded baskets of fish,
wliile those angling almost beside him
will not have even the semblance of a
fish.
Sam is the. one unfailing source of
supply of sea foods for the leading
beach hotels. He never brings fish for
sale. IVut simply strolls in.
"Want any tlout?" be will ask.
'Have you any?" is the probable
question in reply.
"No. hut I get you some tomollow,"
Sum will answer.
Sam will then find out how many
trout are requirea, and, forthwith will
proceed to catch just that many, and no
more. At present mountain trout are
taboo, and Sam must catch salmon
trout. Sam does not bother tly-flshing
the riffles not he. He proceeds to his
best hole, takes some of the water in
his hand, looks at it, smells it and Is
doubtful. ' He takes a glance at the
current, considers the breezes, and then
comments: "No tlout here today; have
to go up the river."
Kventually Sam will find a hole, and
has no hesitation in welcoming any.
other fisherman to the place of his se
lection. But and here's the rub Sam
will fish side by side with the new
comer and while the Chinaman will be
actually fishing and having the where
withal to show for it. if the man sit
ting at his very side gets a couple of
the little beauties to exhibit as his
prowess, he is indeed in luck.
As for Sam. the fish will slip, one by
one and "each by each." as Sam says,
into his capacious creel. In an hour or
two Sam will have just the number or
dered, and right there he will quit, for
with Sam fishing is not pleasure or
fun. it is just plain, ordinary work.
And Sam. just like the rest of human-.
ity, only works when he lias to.
It's not in the bait he uses, per
haps it is the way he puts it on.. No
one knows but Sam, and he is. not in
clined to tell. But it's a surety that if
Sam can't get fresh salmon eggs he'll
tise the salted variety. If those are
unobtal nable. well, the canned kind
will satisfy him: and if he does not
want the canned kind or has not the
price, why. then this fisherman par ex
cellence will use plain, ordinary land
worms. It makes no difference, he
catches the fish anyway.
Certainly there is nothing In the pole,
for the pole Sam uses Is -just a plain,
ordinaw piece of bamboo. If it Is the
way the pole is wielded, then Sam Is
the wonder of the century, for. as far
as the observer cin see. the pole is held

William Gohl, Alleged Slayer of
Haciberg, Gets Trial
Postponed.
MAIN EVIDENCE UNKNOWN
Man Accused of Killing Friend and
Sinking Body With Anchor De
nies GiiiJt of Long last of
CrimesDefense Plans.
bt d. y. OV1TT.
ABERDEEN, Wail).. March 1 !. I Spe
cial.) When the case of William Gohl,
former . agent of . the Sailors' Unifa
here, who is accused of the murder of
Charles Hadberg and suspected of com
plicity in other crimes, is called in the
Chehalis County Superior Court at
Montesano May 2, a trial which promises
to surpass any similar hearing in this
state, if not the country, will commence.
On a signed application from the pris
oner the trial was today ordered con
tinued by Superior Court Judge Irwin
from March 25 to May 2. Gold's applica
tion for delay stated that the defense
was not j'et ready to proceed with the
triaL This contradicts the statement
made at the time of Gohl's arrest when
he demanded an immediate trial. A spe
cial panel of 102 veniremen had been
summoned for the case.
As mysterious as . the happenings
with which he is supposed to have been
connected, has been the work of Gohl
and his attorneys in preparing for the
defense.
In all " of the rare statements Gohl
has made since his arrest he has de
clared his innocence emphatically. His
explanations have been considered as
plausible by many. Denial of guilt is
but natural, as it is the only feasible
statement he could make, contend the
doubters, while the less radical also
point out that it is likewise the only
possible utterance of an innocent man.
Iolice Inquiry Secret.
While the public at large has been
thus engaged tearing down and re
building, with vague rumors and un
confirmed reports to aid in the framing
of new theories, the local police, aided
by the county officials, have been car
rying on their work no less secretly
than has the defense.
It has been the policy of Chief of
Police Dean of Aberdeen to make the
investigation as private as possible,
and this is admitted as being the
wisest course. Chief Dean and his men
have been tireless in their work and
that they will be In possession of evi
dence, whether . refutable or not, of
which the public at present has not
the slightest hint, is conceded to be
practically assured.
To the average citizen the most dam
aging bit of evidence in a circumstan
tial way against Gohl, which has be
come public property, is the evidence
of a man who was the last, apparently,
to see Charles Hadberg alive.
He tells of seeing Hadberg ' in the
vicinity of Gobi's shack near Indian
Creek, engaged in the same occupation
as himself, salvaging logs that had es
caped during the floods.
Hadberg, says this witness, tied his

jection to company, but advice, no. "I
dunno, I'll tly." is hi.s stock reply as to
what chance his guests will' have.
When he gets down to the point Sam
will look at the water. He will ponder
a little and they say: "No cod today,
only tlout." Accordingly he will put
on a No. 5 hook for trout and get them
to bite exclusively. And the trout
come so quickly they seem almost anx
ious to be hooked by Satn. Occasion
ally he will pity the unlucky ones. "You
tly there." he will indicate, and nine
times out of ten the expectant one w ill

tools and -personal belongings, such as
a man would who intended soon to re
turn and continue his work.
Gobi's Anchor Weights Body?
On the same day Gohl had come
down in his launch. Hadberg was never
seen again alive. Gohl. whose launch
drifted ashore, said after reaching Ab
erdeen on. foot, that his engine had
broken down. When Hadberg's name
was casually mentioned Gohl said Had
berg had "gone to Alaska."
Hadberg's body, torn by bullet
wounds and with a' heavy anchor
tightly bound to it, was picked up
from the tideflats at low tide at a
point exactly between where he had
been working and the spot where
Gohl's launch grounded. The anchor
was identified as Gohl's.
While a number of the unfortunates
who went to swell the long and grew
some "floater fleet" of a few years
ago were obviously not the victims of
foul play, there were others who, with
equal certainty, came to their deaths
at other hands than their own, and it

CLACKAMAS ROAD TO BEGIN
Cars Expected to Ilun Over ,!Jne
Before Year Is Ended.
OI&EGOX CITT. Or.. March 19. Spe
cial.) Construction will start on the
Clackamas Southern Railway within
60 days, according to what is believed
a reliable report received here today
from Molalla, where F. M. Swift, who
is promoting the line, has been with a
party of men for several weeks.
It is given out that cars will be
running over the line before the end
of the year, though steam will be useH
for motive power until the power plant
on the Molalla is constructed, when
the entire road will be electrified.
Mr. Swift has been working for more
than two years on the proposition and
has succeeded in interesting Eastern
capital, and now has plenty of backing
to finance the construction of the
road.
The right-of-way from Oregon City
to Silverton through Beaver Creek and
the Molalla Valley has been obtained
and a resurvey has just been made
from Inskeep's place, at Beaver Creek,
to Oregon City that will save several
thousand dollars in construction. Farm
ers along the route and Oregon City
property owners have subscribed stock
to the amount of more than $100,000.

WALLOWA, Or., March 18. (Spe

schoolhouse has declared In favor of
a new fireproof school building, to
cost $20,000. The meeting was called
by the directors to ascertain the
wishes of the people. Last year the
present six-room schoolhouse was
crowded to overflowing, and this year
an overflow class of nearly 50 is housed
in a small photograph gallery, wholly
unfit for school purposes.
A prominent real estate man says
that if 500 houses are built here this
Spring they will all be filled before
the Fall term begins. .This has en

big ones flocking exclusively to his
line. When asked about this he said:
"I know when the fish nibble; they
(contemptuously he indicated the score
of would-be anglers) can't tell. Then
I catch the fish." .
After each tide Sam knows just
where the big clain beds are. Others
who have lived in Seaside all their lives
will come back with a dozen or so of
the tiniest, but In a couple of hours at
least a gross of the largest will be dug

In Summer he digs two wagonloads

"Clams mean my bled anil butter," he
said he other day, "but the fish give

He is worth knowing, is Sam. He is
a caustic humorist, but on top of all
he's a fisherman.

HOOD RIVER, Or., March 19. (Spe

ten acres were sold for $19,000.
The highest price for Hood River
orchard property was paid by Felix

to reside. The orchard, which is eight
years old, ..is situated on. the east side
of the valley and consists of a solid

The tract sold to Mr. Vonnegut has the
distinction of being the first piece of
orchard at Hood River to sell for J1000
