The book let which h agricultural committee Is to Issue la now In Ipreaa and will be oi by Saturday. The park com mime haa been unable as yet to In terview Mr. Bhlvely, but will do ao In time to make a definite report pt the new regular meeting. Harrison L. Iliunblct, the miring member of the park committee, haa been aucceeded by Albert Dunbar. The following com mittee was named to confer with the Chamber of Commerce committee In the effort to devise ways and means for the publication of the book of Clatsop county: H., 8. Lyman, F. U I'arker and F. J. Taylor. The case of Mr. Scott v. the A. & ('. It. It. wai concluded In the circuit court yesterday afternoon, and at 7:30 last evening the Jury was sent out, after having been charged by Judge Mcrtrlde. The argumenta of Messrs. Fulton and ltennatt were listened to by a vary inrge number of people, tbe courtroom' being crowded. Mr. - Ful ton' address dealt largely with the law In the , while Judge Bennett ! address was one full of sentiment. HI summary of the case was a masterly effort, ami the manner In which he depicted th death of Engineer fWt brought tear to the eye of many. This feature, of tM address wa espec ially trying on the widow of the en gineer who had charge of the train on the fateful night, and tear welled up In the eye of Juror as well us spec tator. At an early hour thl morning Die Jury had not reached an atrree mcnt, and It waa freely predicted last night that the Jury would hang. Shingle students are lieglnnlng to wonder w hat la going to become of the red rednr Industry, tlieap timber la already a thing of the past, and It will be only a short time until It will not be plentiful at high prices. The ahingle mllla are feeling the change from over supply to scarcity, some of them fre quently having to suspend operations for a time because no logs are to be mid, and because there Is a steady ad vance In coat of timber. , All agree that 1903 will be another great year, probably producing more ahlnglea than the nearly 6.000,000,000 of 1901; but If tihl develop to be a true fore cast, It will probably be the largest year In shlnglemaklng ever known in Washington, and after then there will be a decline in production and advance in price until here Is only enough left for local consumption. Good shingle loga frequently twlng as h'gh aa $9 per 10O0 foet, and are not at all plentiful; while It Is the exception for ,a mill to got sound, cedar at the prevailing ratea of $8.25 to $8.50. TheBe prices are not caused by the difficulty of conducting logging operations, but because easily accessible cedar la really scarce. The rate war between the steamers plying from Astoria, '.o Peep Itlver waa settled yesterday, and the old ratea will be restored at once. For some time past the Mayflower and Jordan have had a merry war, greatly to the delight of the settlers on the other aide of the river. Under tht term of settlement, the Jordan takes the Saturday run, while the Mayflow er will make the Tuesday run, tiplther steamer Interfering with 'he other on those day. The Thursday and Sun day run! will alternate between the boats. With settlement of the rate war cornea the statement that the Cal ender Transportation , Company haa sold the steamer Callndr to tha ta clflo Fisheries Company, of Seattle. This company hua, been endeavoring for aomo time to buy the boat, and it la now 'understood ' the sale '" has ' been consummated, though the report la not officially confirmed. According to the rumor currant' yesterday,' tha Cal ender will not be taken to the Sound tor about, three weeks. It Is aald ahe Was sold for12.000 or IU.600 .The Cal ender company la aald to have an- 1 aounced Ita Intention of building sn ikher steamer. - Offer! for purchase of the Jordan have been made, but that steamer la not for sate at present. ' ' ' ' " v'r f, Harrison Allen, reporting for 'the Joint manufactories committer, last evening explained to th Push Club the statu of the proposed enlarge ment of the leathers shipyard. . lie said Mr. Leathers was anxious to purchase from D, K. Warren the lot adjoining the present shipyard, for which the owner eome time ago asked tWiW. The commute called on Mr. Warren at his country home and ask- 1 hlin Co rvduce the. figure. Mr. Warren was disposed to be very obliging, and. In an effort to help the crmunlttco In Its uommendable efforts to secure more enterprises, cut dwn Ms price to tlbOO. Mr. Ix-athers has tVK) available, for the purchase of the property and fthe committee haa un-. dertuken to have the Push Club and Chamber of Commerce secure -the nec essary additional 11000 for him. A plan has been arranged whereby the money I to be borrowed and tendered to Mr. Leathers for a year, the com mercial bodies to pay the interest. In line with Mr. Allen's proposal the club last night voted to pay Its har of in amount. The enlarged shipyard will be of vast benefit to the city. Sec retary Lyman haa been Instructed to ask the council to vacate the foot of Fourth atreet for the Joint benefit of Mr. Leathera and the Astoria Iron Works Company.' There la no ques tion that the request WH1 be compiled with, aa the council 'la In hearty ac cord with the effort to "build up the city's manufacturing Inlerests. Some Idea of the volume of business that a first-claw shipyard tan do I obtained from Mr. Leathera' statement to the Joint committee that he turned away during the past year more than 130,000 worth of business." The pro posed new yard will moke possible the construction of large schooners. The Joint committee now haa under consideration a proposal for the estab lishment of another ahlp-bulldlng con cern, f.ir which Judge Taylor haa of fered to donate the necesary site. For a time, until further arrange ments are made, the name of the In tending Investor win be withheld. A meeting of the congregation of the First Presbyterian church waa held last evening for the purpose of considering the request of the pastor, Itev. Henry Marcotte, that the con gregation Join with him In asking the Preabytery to terminate his relations with the Astoria church. The congre gation was not at all disposed to grant Mr. Marcotte' requeat, and the Bentl- ment expressed was Indeed flattering to the popular and energetic young minister. Every member who express ed himself at the meeting aald the church should take steps to retain the present pastor, to whom the success of the organisation was due. It was appreciated by the congregation that Mr. Marcotte wished to remove to Moscow only 'because he could be more useful there, .but there waa a well-defined sentlmeaf that effort should be made to make local con ditions sufficiently srratlfylnW to prompt the parttor to reconsider Ms decision to leave the city. In accord with this view. It was determined to take steps looking to the building of a new church, and from the enthus iastic manner In which the matter has been undertaken there Is Uttle ques tion that the effort will prove success ful. Owing to the inclement weather, only 28 members were present last night, but those In attendance pledged more than 11500. Today members of the congrcagtlon will begin an active canvass fur funds. During tl meet ing nr. Alfred Kinney made a very happy and opportune address, In which he spoke feelingly of the grand work of Mr. Marcotte. He aald he waa sat isfied the new churoh could be built. and Is or the opinion it hat fully 115.000 can be raised for the purpose. The church members will aak assistance from all religiously Inclined persons, whether Presbyterians or members of other churches, and. aa the cause is Indeed a worthy one. the requisite sum will surely be realised. Dr. Kinney Inslrtts that.15.000 ran be secured. It Is believed by the congregation tha Mr. Marcotte can be Induced to remain In Astoria if the new church Is built, and fear of losing, their present pas tor will prompt members ,to greater effort. The church haa an txcellent piece of property on which to build, the lota having been donated by the Ftavel estate. They are located at Eleventh atreet and Grand avenue. PROPOSALS WANTED.
