Word was received in this city yc le relay from authoritative sources at Foft Steven that Ccorge Saylor, the private in the 34th Company, Coast Artillery, who sjiot at the barkeeper at Hammond sonic days ago, had been subjected to a summary trial by court martial at that post, the case being concluded on the evening of Wednesday last. First Lieutenant E. J. Cullen served at judge advocate, and the court, en baiKjue, was made up of the follow iiig named officers, towit: First Lieu tenant E. K. Fa ms worth, First Lieu tenant K. P. Kcclcr; First Lieutenant R. C. Tuttle; Second Lieutenant W M. Fulton (aide-de-camp to General Brush, commanding at Vancouver, Wash.), First Lieutenant F. J. Behr of Fort Columbia, who served the de fendant as counsel. All of thes gen tlemen belonged to the local staff, ex cept First Lieutenant Tuttle, who be longs to the medical department, and Lieutenant Fulton, who is attached to the Twenty-fourth Infantry. The findings of the court are kept secret on account of the rules of the service which require this until the commanding officer of the department to whom all such things are referred, has passed upon them, and nothing will be known of it until General Brush, at Vancouver, shall give the matter publicity. AH the witnesses in the case were summoned and on hand, including one that had moved to Portland, who was brought down and held at the Government's expense pending the trial. ' In the course' of a conversation yesterday with Captain Lamereaux, in command at Fort Stevens (who, by the way, did not serve on the court martial) that officer made plain to an Astorian reporter, the desire of all officers at the posts situated at the mouth of the Columbia, that such transgressions of the civil law, as Saylor's, should meet prompt and thorough handling at the hands of the civil courts and officers; and that in default of such action, they intend to prosecute all such matters on the in stant they are knowledgablc at the forts here.

The tentative plan for a hew struc ture call for at least 16 room. An as sembly room is needed, and there isn't even an assembly room in the pres ent building, the McCIure's. A gym nasium is also a feature that could be provided for in a new structure. The old McCIure's building wa erected in l83, and it was thoroughly well built and has already done fine service. It in said that repairs on the building now would be simply a waste of money, though with care it could be used for a long time yet as one of the grade school buildings.

CHANCE TO TRADE THE 1 5TH STREET SITE A PROPOSITION IS SAID TO HAVE BEEN MADE TO AS TORIA SCHOOL BOARD. The crowded conditions-of the high school building seem to render a new structure necessary and it is known that interest in this matter has recent ly been revived among the members of the Astoria school board. It seems to be agreed that if the question of a site of a site suitable in location and otherwise can be settled upon the matter of then erecting a fine High School building for Astoria will fol low as a matter of course. The schooP "d'strict now ownra good sized site just off from Fif teenth street, up near the location of the rock crushing establishment, but many do not look upon this location with any marked favor. It is under stood that a proposition has been made to the board by a well known gentleman to make a trade, to trade the site owned by the district for an other gocd sized lot in a presumably far more favorable location, and one that is not very far up" the hillside.

He is go ing to close the saloons and the cigar stands and everything else that is closable. In Astoria, too, the saloons will all be closed this coming Sun day. The prosecuting attorney, Mr. Tongue, is not taking any action to bring this about, however, and it may be presumed that he doesn't know many of them have been wide open for many moons. It's the presence of the grand jury, and the fact that the circuit court is in session that are having this effect upon the Astoria saloonkeepers who have beefl defying the Sunday closing laws. ' At least that's the word going around. Those who delight in a little Sunday tippling would better get their goods in advance for this Sabbath. Of course, for the initiated, there may be a few back doors open just a little bit, but the tip has gone forth that there's a dry time coming. , Meantime the fairly numerous sa loonkeepers who do obey the laws, and who do close on Sundays,. are said not to be in good humor over the fact that many of the others defy the law and defy public opinion.

PERSONAL MENTION Trappera Take Stand It was stated here yesterday that the Columbia River Trappers' Union intend to proceed against Master Fish Warden H. C. McAllister, by way of injunction in the Federal court, in estoppel of any procedure he may design taking to enforce the fall season fishing laws on both banks of the river. The matter will be pre sented for the Trappers by their consul, G. C. Fulton of this city, on Thursday of next we:k, and the plea; will go straight to the question of the constitutionality of the initiative and referendum laws of the State, which will be pressed to a finality in this behalf, as well as in that of all other issues impinging thereupon in cidentally, The idea being to hold 11 laws inopperative during the pendency of the live questions sub jected to judicial analysis. iix-tounty Commissioner William Larson was in the city yesterday from his fine Lewis & Clark dairy farm and reports everything going along admirably out in that neighbor hood.
