Every available place on both the Ore gon and Washington sides of the river has been occupied and seiners along the river find It difficult to keep trap- men from encroaching on their grounds. Contractor Lebeck dispatch Our Great... Removal Sale ed Ms pile driver up the river yesterday to drive piling for about a doaen'trapa. Most f them are going In on the Washington side of the river, as more favorable locations can be secured there than on the Oregon side.

Th members of the AstoH Rowing Club held a meeting at the olllce of Justice Hughes last evening. There was little business transacted.

""""" C P. Looney, who deals In and sella the large majority of sewing machines in Clatsop county, dug up an Interest Ing relic In the way of a Singer Inatru raent at 8t. Helens yesterday. The Singer machines now being sold are numbered in advance of the sixteen mil loin mark.. The Instrument found by Mr. Looney numbers 23J.391. In speaking of this mechanism of the olden day, Mr. Looney said: "Strange as It may seem, this contrivance works as smoothly as a top and sews well, although surely It must be one of Isaac Merrltt Slngers's output sometime antedating the rebellion. Mr. 8lngers first Instrument was placed on the market In 1SJ1. He devoted himself with Immense energy to pushing what' was then an Infant Industry In this direction. The foundation of the sew ing machine, however, was laid by the Invention ot a double-pointed needle, with tho era in the center, patented by Chas. F. Welsenthal in 175. The St. Helens sewing machine was the property of R. H. Mitchell, editor and proprietor of the St Helens News. It is a novelty and will no doubt be re tained by Mr. Looney as a souvenir of his business. Several wagers were laid on the time in which some of the vessels carrying the salmon pack from frlatol bay, Alaska, could reach their desti nation. The Harry Morse, which left the Nuahagak river loaded with the pack ot the Alask Packing Company got away on August 11. Superintend ent Carlson bet that the Morse would not reach Astoria before August SL The Morse was out 21 days yesterday and Mr. Carlson wins his bet The Gardiner City, which left the same place on August 2L made a quick trip, as she arrived at San Francisco Thurs day last. She is loaded with a cargo o' .slt salmon. The schooner Bartlett, belonging to the Pacific. Coast Steam Whaling Company, loaded with the season's pack, also made a quick trip. She left Nushagak river on the 7th and reached San Francisco Wednesday last Mr. Carlson made a bet with Purser Hall of the Bartlett that that ship would not reach her destination inside of 20 days. The bet was won by Mr. Carlson with several days to spare. The Morse may be expected off the riv er any day. On her arrival here Sup erintendent Carlson will be wheeled In a wheelbarrow by Ole B. Oleson, the loser of the bet, from his residence on Duane street to the Iatter's residence In East Astoria. "They're coming! they're coming!" shouted a small boy late yesterday af ternoon, as he ran fleetly from the Telephone dock towards Commercial street Seemingly, every one knew What was coming, for the landings were soon thronged with people to greet both, the training ship Adams at Or Near Actual Cost. our removal Sept. . and the auxiliary cruiser Badger as they approached from :ht west steam ing slowly and majestically on the placid sweeps of the vast stretching river. The Adams preceded the Bad ger, and presented a pretty picture with her decks white with sailors and Iter rattlnv alive with nimble tars who scampered to the fore and main sky sails as It displaying their power for the pleasure of the many onlookers. It was soon seen that Astoria was not the present destination of the training snip, for while sh lowered her ladder In courtesy to a panting tittle launch which clung to port amldahlp, her speed was slackened. 'uut little, and soon she rounded the bend and dlsap pea red towards the bar snrouu to San Francisco. On th contrary, the Bad ger looking a colossus In the wake of the Adams, first rested opposite ths O. It A N. dock and 'then moved to the wharfage adjoining the Elmore can nery where she fastened and quickly discharged the naval reserves who havt furnished the bulk of her marine complement during the period cf hcT voyage the past several days. John J. McDertnott Brat assistant engineer ot the steamer Harrison, and a man named Hunter, who serves aa a fireman on the same vessel, engaged In an altercation In front ot Foster's Exchange on Commercial street yester day, which resulted In Hunter getting his Jaw cracked and his face pummel led until he yelled lustily for help. The fight attracted the usual crowd who Jeered the combatants until friends came to the rescue. Later In the day, McDertnott stood on the dock In prox imity to the Harrison when he alleges that his superior officer In the person of Chief Engineer Furchen, approached and without warning, struck Mm an ugly blow which caused him to reel and then fall sensless on the landing. McDormott called at the Astorlan office last nldht and narrated the circum stances from his own point ot view. "This man Hunter," said McDertnott, "Is my subordinate and ordinarily a good fellow. I Instructed him yester day to reitialn on the boat and at tend to his duties. He refused, but to palliate the mutiny. Invited me down to have a drink. This Is something an old salt never refuses, and naturally I accompanied him. We began anew our discussion of differences over tho beverage, and the termination was a broil. But why the chief engineer should Jump on to me Is a conundrum. I can only account for It through his having formerly roomed at Hunter's house. I am now In search of a lawyer and propose to give both of them trouble. Moreover, I am going to have the Harrison stopped before she clears the bar. She baa aboard all of my clothes even to my coat and will be ab sent fully three weeks and maybe long er. However, It Isn't the clothes that prompt me to stop the vessel. Its the fact that she has started out minus a first engineer and this Is In violation ot the navigation laws." THE PRIZE CONTEST.
