Comfort, general manager of the China Steamship Company, Inquiring about the shipping condition! at Port land, haa been received by the Portland-Asiatic company. The statement waa made that the steamer of hts line would again make port of entry calls at Portland as soon aa the freight sit uation seemed to warrant It, and he asked to be advised about the mat ter. He will be advised, so the local offi cials say, that the situation baa im proved very materially during the past few weeks. If the traffic continues to Increase at the rate It haa of late the probabilities are that there will soon be more business being offered than the Portland-Asiatic liners can handle. It Is thought that the China Commer cial freighters will be put back on the run some time next 'month. When this step Is taken there will be eight ori ental liners sailing from Portland hav ing a combined carrying capacity of approximately 860.000 tons. Since leaving here Inst spring the China Commercial steamers have been plying regularly between Hongkong and Mexico, carrying principally Chi nese coolies. That the oriental freight business is rapidly increasing from this port is shown from the fact that almost a full cargo has already been engaged for the Aragonia, which is due to arrive from the far east the middle of this month. The principal shipment to go out will be 'flour. One of the largest shipments aside from the flour will be 1.500 tons of leaf tobacco, which is now In transit from Virginia. Fifty-two cars were re- vent the boat and net thieving and net cutting. The meeting adjourned, and was ex ceedlngly amicable, and the visiting cannert expressed themselves well pleased with results. The Lucero will take a party of the visitors to Powell lake, a sceulo center up the coast, be fore returning to Seattle. P. P. M0REY PASSES AWAY.

STATE HOUSE JANITOR MISSING May Have Committed 8uioide Because of Finanoial Embarrassment Salem, Ore., July 8. C. W. Stump, who has been a janitor at the state house for the rtost year, has disappear ed, and, while some talk suicide, It Is believed by those best informed that he has simply left the town to avoid his creditors. He left his work at o'clock Tuesday morning, ostensibly to go to breakfast, and has not been seen quired to handle it. This is said to B,ncei , reqWKtei the party who be one of the biggest'shlpments of to bacco ever made at one time on an oriental liner from this port PEACE AMONG 8ALMON MEN. Fraser and Sound Interests Come to an Agreement Vancouver, B. C, July 7. The first official meeting between cannerymen of Puget sound and those representing Fraser river intersts was held yester day afternoon in Vancouver. Questions of International interest and import ance were discussed. President E. B, Demlng headed the visiting delegation, some time been running behind flnan followed him on the work to attend to some certain little duties in case he was late In returning, as he would be obliged to cook his own breakfast It has since been learned that. Instead of going home, he boarded the local train and went to Portland. It was discovered by Chief Janitor Newstead that Stump had left a note addressed to his wife In a closet ad joining the elevator shaft, and that he had hung up his bunch of keys there. The letter was later delivered to the family,, and It simply said he would no longer disgrace them, and bade them goodbye. It is also learned that he had for The Elaterite Imlmg Co. Worcester Bldj.

Wilson, president of the Fraser River Canners' Association, took charge of the local arrangements. The session lasted all afternoon. Some of the visitors returned home by the Malnlander this evening, while others will travel on the canners' yacht Lucero. The question of the proposed estab lishment of what would be Interna tional hatcheries for the Fraser river was considered, but no decisive action taken. It was explained by the Can adians that the Dominion government now operates several hatcheries and had not, so far, given its countenance to any scheme for control of fish hatch ing stations from both sides of the international boundary. Shall Puget sound countrymen be permitted to Invade British territory to purchase fish or shall Canadians be allowed to buy fish on Puget sound? This was another question which was dally, and that he had been drinking quite heavily, presumably to overcome his feeling of desponJency. He is in debt to many friends, and it la learned at the secretary of state's office that he has not yet drawn his salary voucher for the past quarter, and upon In quiry at the state treasurer's office the family have learned that his sal ary of (50 per month Is fully drawn. Mr. Stump was for many years 1 trusted employe of the Capital Im provement Company, which place he left to acept the position as janitor at the capltol, and clnce he has held that place many friends have noticed that he haa been changed In his mental attitude towards people. He haa a fine family, who renlde In North Salem. Tuesday night, at 10 o'clock Mr. Stump called up Coroner A. M. Clough at his residence In North Salem, and asked him by telephone to Inform his family that he would be home ir it is wortn wnne 10 00 business at all it Is worth vhlle to do a lot of It -and this means, alwsys, a propor tionate amount of newspaper space.

In past seasons Fraser river but he failed to return a agreed. canners have bought fish on the Puget sound banks, greatly to the disgust of the sound canners, and last year the latter threatened to Invade Fraser river precincts if the practice continued. Hereafter neither side will offend. Still another question was that of a closed season every week. In Can ada, salmon may not be caught, ac cording to regulation, between 6 o'clock on Saturday morning and C o'clock Sunday night The meeting was unan imous In favoring this proposition for both sides of the boundary. As a result the Puget sound men have left for home with the Intention, of securing legislation from their gov ernment to Inaugurate this weekly closed season.
