There Is a big shortage In the sup ply of coal on the Bound. Dealers are unable t fill their numerous orders and a coal famine Is Imminent. Nome's winter stock of fuel Is said to be Inad equate to meet the demand. The fact that shipments from Australia hove been suspend"! and that there has been a marked Increase In tho amount of railroad and it .'am hip bulm-ss as well as manufacturing Is said to have been the principal cause of the scarcity. The fire at the raclflc Coast Com pany's bunkers burned fiercely all yes terday morning and the firemen were kept busy keeping the flames under control.

Preparations are gnlng on In the busy camps of the Salvationists all over the United States to fittingly celebrate the Harvest season by a series of festivals which are Intended according to Bib Ileal precept to give expression to the gratitude of the Nation for the bless ings of harvest. The local onranlsa tlon will not have any special demon' stration out win solicit and receive special contributions during the time set for the festival, from September 29 to October I. As Is generally known, the Income from this festival Is entire' ly devoted to home work. The complex phllanthroplcal and spiritual operations carried out by the organisation contln ually drain Its financial resources to the utmost. The Army's field lies among a class or people who are not very well able to support It, and con. sequent ly special arrangements have to be mado from time to time to meet the ever pressing requirements. One of the principal of these Is the Harvest Festival. COMING FROM CHICAGO.

COOPER, Astoria, Oregon Capt. A. M. Simpson, the I urn be magnate of Ban Francisco, has returned from a six weeks' trip to the Ejist and was In Astoria yesterday. Mr. Simpson returned via the Oreat Lake, Dululh, and from thence over the Oreat Northern to Seattle. He paid a visit of Inspection to his mills at Shoal water Bay and Grays Harbor and also Knappton, coming across yes'.erdiy morning to Astoria. When seen by an Astorlan reporter at ths Occident HotH yesterday after noon Mr. Simpson stated that while the sole object of his visit to the East was for recreation and rest he very ratur ally took notice of the condition of trade and the general state ' of the lumber market In that section, and that while the market has been very Arm up to within a few weeks there seems to be a tendency toward consttr vauvo buying Just at present that Is slmost absolutely universal, and states the reason of this as being a gen era! timidity among the heavier buyers against carrying a large stock on 'land till the result of the coming prealdi?n tlal election Is known. He says that It Is his opinion that should Bryan be elected, which he Is unwilling to admit as a possible probability, the Im mediate effect would be a eneral de nreaslon of trade throughout the coun try. That the people have confidence In the present administration and that a change would be especially undeslr rble at this time. He says that business In the Eastern rortlon of the country has been very brisk and building active and that although there Is a jull at prevnt as soon as the slight element of uncr;aln ty regarding election is removed and the administration once more continued there will be a steady increase In the demand for manufactured lumber. Mr. Simpson had with him statistics showing the annual exports of fumbr from Oregon and Washington and gave out figures of the exports for 18S9 Shipped by rail. 225.000.000 f-t; by car go. 4Jo.Moo.coo feet, or a total of nearly six hundred and fifty million feet be side a large quantity used In coasting and local consumption. He does not think that the recent heavy Invest mcnts of Eastern capitalists in Oregon and Washington timber lands will have any Immediate effect upon the Jjuslness or tend to boom it In any way as there are several mills at present not running while the supply of manufactured tim ber exceeds In a slight degree the de mand and gives as a cause for the recent droo in the price of logs the glut In the market which naturally ex tends back from the manufactured pro duct to the rough logs. In speaking of Astoria. Mr. Simpson predicted a bright future and stated as his opinion that the rapidly Increasing development of Oregon and Southwest ern Washington was bound to make Astoria by virtue of her splendid na tural harbor facilities and advantages of location the coming Important sea port of the Northwest. Mr. Simpson left up on the evening train for Portland and will return soon to his home In San Francisco. CIRCUIT COURT. Timothy Corbett's Trial Set for Thure-day-Two Natives of Sweden Admitted to Citizenship.

Its disappearance will not make the slightest difference, as a chemical tub stitute has been discovered, which la cheaper and better. The new century is bound to witness. many changes, but there Is one human benefactor which will remain as firm as the Pyramids, and that Is Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters. It is a cure for all stomach ills. No one has been able to discover any thing so effective for Indigestion, con stipation, dyspepsia, biliousness, liver and kidney troubles as the Bitters.
