Horn From San FrancUco
P. P. Kendall, the well known can
manufacturer and talmon cannery
man, returned to thi city yesterday,
from San Francisco, and the east,
whither he has been on business
trip ;and in course of conversation
with an Asiorianj reporter, he an
nounced that the Alaska fishing con
cern centered at the Bay City, had
decided, thi year, to abate their
preparation for the Alaska eaon of
1908, at least 25 per cent in men and
equipment owing to the pronounced
scarcity of money in that metropolis
wherewith to operate this huge enter
prise. That ft is in such large under
takings the shortage of available
fund become painfully apparent He
also aid that hit can-making concern
in this city has not been told to the
American Can Company, a wa re
ported, and that it is the only plant
now outside that combine.
In Service Today-
Fire Chief Foster ha been at work
installing the new transmission wheel
and the new test clock, lately pur
chased for the use of the department
and hope to have them both in fine
working order today. The transmit
sion wheel will, a its name signifies,
transmit all alarms of fire that are
sent in, either from the IS alarm boxes
throughout the city, or by telephone
(the Chief being busy now sending
out card to all homea and buildings
with telephones in them, directing
that ajl alarms must be sent to the
headquarter building of the depart
ment) to the various stations about
the city, and the men at each station
will know a fire i afoot and ita loca
tion, and will govern themselves ac
cordingly, unless summoned by a
special call from the Chief. The test
clock is a fine time-piece, and will
send a three-stroke call to each of
the outlying engine house, at 8 a. m.,
12 noon, and S p. m., thus keeping in
touch, with any failure of the wires
to serve the system. The whole plan
greatly simplifying the despatch of
the work of alarm and salvage.
The Astoria Shorthand Studio, which
has been closed for the past two
months, is pleased to announce that
it will resume its classes of Short
