Poor Buainata Metheda Without any advertised notice to that effect, the steamer F. A. Kllburn has, for some time, rejected all outhbound freight out of thla port, ntul In sev eral Instance thla has caused a down- rlsht loea, not only to her owners, but to the Astoria business firms who have relied upon her to take out or bring In shipments, having no formal notice of her ordurS to repudiate them. The latest case In point I that of the Tnllnnt-Orant" Packing company, which, on her last trip south, had a thousand cases of tins to ship to the Eel River Cannery, via Eureka, and which she left upon the dock without any "aye or nay" about It, Incidental with this, comes the news of a splendid run of salmon In Eel river, and the cannerymen there are simply helpless for want of tins In which to pack the catch. Thus the Kllburn lose the hauling both way (as the 1.000 cases were but part of a 6,000-case ship ment to that destination) and th. Tal lant-Orant people are subjected to a rank and undeserved loss as well. It la a poor system of doing business ior a regular liner. , A.
