The shut down la occasioned by the raise of lumber rates between Portland and San Francisco, a raise that could not be met from the coast to Portland When the condltons became apparent the' company at once closed down the works and threw out big San Francis co orders. Effort was made to transport lumber by water to the Bay City, the plan being to ship the -cargoes from fclavel. but ,the Idea was, abandoned w hen the railroad people,"ca.me to the millmen's relief. By acting promptly th company has retaken the prderi thrown out, and they will be handled by rati the first part of the year. Keith Lackey, for some time past assistant occountant in the office of Fisher Bros., has resigned and will go into business on his own account. He will engage in the brokerage, insur ance and general commission business, in which line he sees a good opening m this field, and his friends and acquaint. ances are confident that .'he will make a success of the venture ' Mr. Lackey is thoroughly conversant with the de tails of the business In Ihlch he Is to embark, and this knowledge, together with a happy faculty of making friends and retaining them, Will doubtless bring a large measure of success. . ( P. . A. Seaborg announces that the Seaiborg Packing Company will operate a new cannery neIt season the con struction of which will be begun next February. The plant is to be the most modrt-n on the river and white help will be employed wherever possible. The company has been securing a num ber of trao locations on the river near Charter rates are steadily increasing, ant before the season is ended the in dications are that, they will be back to a pretty respectable figure. Wednes day the British bark East African turned down an offer of 20s 6d to carry , a grain cargo to the United Kingdom. The day before the owners of the Glen- es'illn refused an offer of 20s for the same kind of business. Good offers are being declined almost every day, and tt is believed that all the spot ships will be engaged before many days elapse. The only vessels in the river not chartered are the Glenesslln, East African and Bed Rock Those engaged ar the Chrlstel, oreparing to load, and the Europs which will complete her irralu enrgo this week. From the ap pearance of things Portland will soon be short of available tonnage. Two more vessels are about due there, how. ever, from San Francisco. They are the British ships Andorlnha and the ncaiiis. One reason for the Improve jrtent of tlie'pfttes Is believed to be part ly attributable to the fact, that many of (ho big windjammers are leaving San Francisco in ballWt.i The owners were dissatisfied with the freight sit uatkin and sent them to other quart ers of the globe In search of better busl ness inducements.
