The West, published at Fl'irence, says
thut considerable Interest is being man
Ifcuted iis to what will be the result
of placing rMitraps In the river this
season. The llrhermm here as In oth
er places ar much opposed to tho use
of traps, saying that It will destroy th
finhlnK Industry, as the traps cati
small and larxe fish alike. In prevlo'ie
years Ihe fishing has been mostly with
gill nets' which furnished employ
ment for a lurge number of men and
no trans were used, But this season
Hie owners of both canneries have ar
ranged to put In traps, saying they are
compelled to do It In order to get their
share of fish at a price uhlch they ran
afford to pay.

the present line will bn abandoned. The
trains will run Into th center of the
city, and the long run around the penln
sula, between the Sound and the Sno'

will shorten the Great Northern n.aln

eight blocks of the city.
' H. R, Plckel waa murdered early
Sunday morning In hla saloon In Port
land. Robbery was the motive but the
brutal assassins cmlv secured about
$210. a small price for a man's life.
Death was caused by beating the vie
dm with some heavy, blunt Instru
ment or possibly brass knuckle. He
waa literally beaten to death, the fore
of the blows being such that death
must have ensued within a few mln
utcs following unconsciousness. No
trace of the murderers haa yet been
discovered, nor la their Identity estab
llMhed. Four detective are now work
Ing on the rase, but the clews are
neither numerous nor definite. Mr,
Dlckell was the proprietor of the Me
rhnnlra' saloon, situated on the south
west corner of Fourteenth street and
Marshall streets.

red to offer. For the present second
hands offer this description at 1-17H
In large blocks, and at 1.25 to 1.30 In
Jobbing way. Pink la probably worth
from S74 to 97tt. The English market
Is very high and excited. Sacramento

Outsldi river' falls Is quoted at from

brand and location. No prices have
been made on Columbia river fall. The
arrivals from Alaska lost week amount
ed to something over 60,000 rases and
about 6,000 barrels. Beyond that above
mentioned there are no fall fish pres
ently on offer, A pack of 20,000 te 40,

Thn Tvlrgram says Tom Traeey, the
welter-weight champion of Australia,
now of the Pacific coast, left Saturday
evening for San Fran -isco. Tracey will
return to Portland in the near future,
and will make his headquarters here
for some time to come. It Is his in
tention to do what ho can toward re
viving the sport In Portland. In speak
In of his fight with Thompson Fr'dav
nlsht, Tracey said: "Thompson Is the
gamest man I ever met In the ring.
Before the last round was over I
thought I would have to get an axe to
knock him out. Every time I knock
td hhn down I punched him hard
enough to put a quietus on any ordi
nary man. He Is as square a fighter,
too. as I ever saw." Traoty's views
of Thompson are held by all who saw
the fight as being about correct. Both
are clean fighters, and there was not
a drop of blood spilled during the
fray. This kind of an exhibition puts
sport on a good footing once more.
The Taroma Ledger says Ihe lumber
market Is not promising and states
that It li nrohable a number of the
smaller shingle and lumber mills will
close down within thirty davs for vary
ing i-rlo-l. There will be no con
certed movement, but a number of mills
hae determined that they will not
attempt to run continuously through
the winter under present conditions.
Son.e of th? loggers will also suspend
operations temporarily. 1 The effect n
the market from thesa causes Is fx-pecti-d
to be beneficial. Eastern build
ing troubles during the early part of
the year, combined with an unufually
henvy output, more than the market
would have Justified had It been settled
at all times. Is responsible for an un
favorable condition of the trade at
present. Mlllmen report that tnelr
sales are regular, but they are not on
basis that can be accepted as sat
isfactory. Shlnglee are eelllng general
ly at the mills on the basis of 61.15 for
stars and $1.35 for clear. Jobbers are
handling them for 5 centa more. Log
gers ore telling cedar logs on their ba
sis of $5.50. Former prices ran as
high as $6.75, but the reduction was
forced by tha shingle men. who de
clared they could not pay the higher
price and operate without a low. The
loggers made the reduction. It Is prob
able the present quotation will stand
until the thingle market brightens, aa
there Is a stock of logs In the water
more than aufflclent for present needs.
Wages In both the shingle mills and
egging camps have remained unchang'

A NEW SAFETY MATCH.
A match has at last been discovered
which can be manufactured absolute
ly without the aid of phosporus. This
safety match contains neither red nor
yellow phosphorus nor a compound of
phosphorus, but possesses the great
advantage of being able to be manu
factured with the plant and machinery
hitherto In use. Invention still strides
onward through every line, and yet
there some things which seem imper
ious to Improvement, For Instance,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, that fa
mous medicine, has stood unequalled
for fifty years as a corrective of stom
ach disorder. Imitations have sprung
up about It, but like a beacon light,
It has stood Immovable, pointing1 the
way to health from all such ailments
as constipation. Indigestion, dyspepsia,
biliousness, sluggish liver or weak kid
