Tho Callonder steamer Melville, Cap tain Jordan, wont to the site of the late stranding of the schooner Alice McDonald on Tuesday last, and located the big mushroom anchor which was planted In the bar channel and served as a naullng point In the work of dls lodging her from the Clatsop sands. She found it and buoyed It, and made another trip yesterday, with plenty of help, secured It and brought It up to the city. Captain Jordan says that while lying off the lower coast on Tues day evening, a muskrat. large and gray, approached tho Melville Just about dusk, and was so sorely tried with his exertions the boys on the steamer ran out the gang-plank and the musky up and dropped on deck exhausted. The crew at once got him a lot of meat and bread from the cabin, and as soon as he was rested Mr. Rat sailed in on the provisions with an ardor that never abated until he had swallowed the last crumb; after which, he hunched up on his hind quarters, dropped his head under his fore-arms and went to sleep, entirely oblivious of hla surroundings and his friendly neighbors. The stea mer returned to the Callendcr pier for the night, and yesterday morning the muskrat had utterly disappeared and no further trace of him has been found. MOOTED MARINE MATTER.

FIGHT OVER CARLOAD RATES, Shippers Now Objaot to Rult That Thty Must Fill the Cars. CI1HWUO, Feb. 20.-operating and tratllc officials of tho western railroads are of the opinion that the climax of unreasonableness has been reached when strenuous objection Is made to their Insisting that shippers, In order to be entitled to carload rates, should bo obliged to llll tho cars furnished for their use to normal holding capacity. In times like these, when there Is a car scarcity from Maine to Oregon, and from Texas to Minnesota, nd the whole country Is suffering front lack of facilities to move tho business, tho railroad men declare that it Is pre posterous that they should be ex pec ted, much loss required, to allow any of their space to bo ruthlessly wasted for the benefit of a small portion of the shipping public and at tho expense of the great majority of shippers. Claims put forth by tho minority, it Is asserted, in effect are a direct vio lation of tho spirit of the Hepburn act. which Is opposed to discrimination of any kind. If tne claims of tho few small shipper alluded to were to be conceded, they say. It would be a gross discrimination against, the great body of shippers. In Justice to all concerned It Is declared necessary that cars should bo filled to normal holding ca pacity, and shippers who cannot thus load them are In no sense entitled to car rates.
