Badly Injured
Charles Bestcr, foreman of the log

Manufacturing Company met with a
very serious and painful accident at
the mill yesterday morning. In some
manner he got caught between the
roll-way and the tender of the engine

had several ribs broken and was ter
ribly crushed about the hips. Presi
dent Henninger immediately tele
graphed the A. & C. authorities for an
engine and car to bring the unfor
tunate man to St, Mary's hospital in
this city. The railroad company dis
patched a train upon receipt of Man
ager Henninger's request and Mr.

the sufferer is able to be subjected
to it.

tate, of Ilendrik Patree, an order for
the sale of realty of the estate and

He Accounted For It
A stout and hearty old fisherman
was overhauling his boat and gear
as it lay idle at the landing next to
I'isher lirothcrs establishment yes
terday, when a reporter of the A'
torian ventured to ask him his opiiv
ion on the dearth of salmon in these
waters. The old man looked at the
pencil pusher in dubious fashion for a
moment, as if he doubted the right of
the inquirer to inquire, and then see
ing the note-book and pencil, un
bosomed himself as follows: "Well,
sonny, it's no marvel to me; the sea
son hain't got nothin' to do wi' it, nor
the weather, either; it's just old fash
ioned salmon-gumption, that's wat it
is; they're a hanging off the bar till
the people of this State put th' kibosh
on them durncd fish-wheels and they
have a clear road to the spawnin'
grounds wi' some sort o' likelihood of
there gcttin' there and back again
and a doin' of their nateral duty by
the trade and us fishers. They're a
knowin' lot, these salmon, and don't
you fcrgit it, my lad!".
A Fisheries Conference
On Monday evening there is to be
a meeting of the officers of the Sein
ers' & Trappers' Union, of this city,
with the executive committee of the
Fishermen's Union, of Astoria, and
the Astoria Protective Committee of
Fifteen, at the Chamber of Commerce
rooms, to confer on the future atti
tude of the Seiners and Trappers, in
regard to the fishery bill No. 332,
known as the "Gill-nctters' bill, and
for which all Astoria is fighting in
order to preserve the salmon industry
of the Columbia; the main object of
the meeting being to clear away all
ambiguities now existant, as to the
alleged threat of the Fishermen's
Union to attack the seiners and trap
pers after the fish-wheels have been
properly disposed of by the people at
the polls on June 1st. The S. & T.
people desire to know that no such
action is to be taken as against them,
and so knowing, will throw their
strength, financial aid, and activities
to the success of that bill. The meet
ing is certain to be full of interest to
all present, as well as to all others on
the outside, who look for a complete
and harmonious issue of the conference.
