Institute suit Mr. Kinney ha filed with Auditor Anderson ' a statement that he will not accept 2250, but that she wanta f 1000 for her Interest In the land. If the council sticks to It orig inal determination to fight the case, the city attorney will probably be in structed at tomorrow night' meeting to proceed with the suit. However, will be of fine model and good speed, hlegal proceeding would probably cot and expense will not be spared In car rying out hi ideas. Triple expansion engine will be Installed.

There waa some slight Improvement In the run of fish yesterday, the feature of the doy" operation being the Im proved catches of the traps, Friday's supply wa very poor, but yesterday the receipt looked up again. It wa the best day the trap had enjoyed thl season. The seiners above the city are muklng small catches, the. day's work netting from 600 pounds to a ton, (depending upon the location. Reports from the lower harbor last night con veyed the intelligence that a nerun was coming In on the night flood, and it I expected receipts will be heavy today, ". ' 11000, and om doubt exist among member of the council a to the ad visability of involving the city In a law suit. Certain it la the matter must be settled at once, as the con Dieting claims are working a great hardship on people who want to build on Thirteenth street. What will unquestionably be the game of the season will take place this afternoon at A. F. C. park, where the Comercla! Club nine will try conclu sion with the Schiller team of Port land, The clubmen have tackled some of the fastest aggregation In the state, but the Schiller arc reputed to have all the other minor team faded. For some day past the local fans have been betting their money on the game, and several hundred dollar has been wagered at odd of 2 to L the clubmen being at the short end of the betting. The Commercials have de termined to go in to win. On several occasion lack of confidence baa Inter fered somewhat with their work, but this afternoon there will be no, such unfortunate condition to handicap them. They realize that tbey are go- !r.g against the fastest team that ever played here and will strive with might and main for success. The Schiller team will line up as follows: White, catcher; Reed, pitcher; Hunter, first base; Nadler, aecond base; Newell, shortstop; Bradley, third base; Har per, left field; Johnson, center field; Williams, right field. The line up of the Commercial team waa not an nounced last night However, Haider' man and Morton will do the twirling, and Ferguson will catch. There will probably be no change In the field. Because of the large sum at stake, the clubmen are anxious to win today, and an exciting game may be looked for. , - Mayor Surprenant yesterday ap pointed a committee to make arrange ments for the construction of the pub lic swimming bath.

Ye terdoy orders were received for the vessel to depart today, and she wtll be taken out at high water. 'Just what prompted the charterer to .Bend the. ship to sea could not be learned, but It la supposed the mild treatment which waa received by the Arabia, the O. Ft & N. vessel captured by the Russians, probably lessened the fear that the Vladivostok squadron would confiscate the entire cargo of any ves sel seized. A Toklo dispatch received yesterday conveyed the Information that the Russian ships would probably be brought to bay or driven off, and this may have had a tendency to re store confidence.

Last night Chief Hallock hap pened along and stopped to hear what the speaker had to aay.
