CRIMPERS BALKED
Court s Protect, Sailors. Brought
From San Francisco
ASTORIA, Sept, 29.-The seat of hos
tilities in the antl-crimping crusade was
transferred to the O. R. & N. wharf
here Saturday night, when the steamship
Elder arrived from San Francisco with 11
men for the German ship Peter Rlckmers.
Seventeen sailors were supposed to have
left San Francisco, but six were "lost"'
somewhere on the trip or before the
Elder departed.
In order to prevent loss of any of the
men after the arrival here of the Elder
the shipowners' representatives had se
cured an injunction- ia Judge BeUlnger's-
court that was very sweeping in its terms.
It was directed to all the members of the
sailor boarding-house combination, as well
as their attorneys and other employes,
and restrained them from in any manner
Interfering with or talking to the incom
ing sailors. It was the most sweeping in
junction ever served in this city and was
likened by the runners to the old blue
laws.
According to the advices received from
San Francisco, the Elder was to stop In
the lower harbor and there transfer the
men to the Rlckmers, which lay at an
chor there. The plan was abandoned,
however, and the men brought to the
wharf. Here they were met by Captain
Walsen, Attorney Hume, Deputy United
States Marshal Wilson, and a large dele
gation of boarding-house people. John
Grant was present and stated before the
arrival of the steamer that he would in
terview the. men and see whether or not
there- were -any-American- ett4sen among
them who might not wish to ship. The
Injunction forbade this, however, and Mr.
'Grant changed his mind.
The sailors were at once approached by
the owners' agents and taken aboard the
launch Swan, which was ready to proceed
with them to the lower harbor. The run
ners watched the men pass through the
dock, but not a word passed between
them.
Mr. Grant said he had all along been
led to. believe Walsen would secure h la
crew from the Portland or Astoria boarding-house,
and that he accepted the cap
tain's statement until he received word
from San Francisco that 17 men had been
engaged there. The runners seemed' well
satisfied that six of the men were miss
ing, and made no effort to Induce1 the
others to leave the ship.

WALLA FAIR
Exhibits a Success, bat Attendance
Was Small.
(Journal Special Service.)
WALLA WALLA, Sept. 29. Tomorrow
evening the slxth'annual Fruit Fair will
come to a close In this city. The exhib
its will at once be removed and the pavll
Hon torn down. In every way the Fair
has been a success. Awards have been
made of hundreds of premiums, and the
business of the association will be closed
up with a' neat sum to Be carried over to
next year. At the opening of this season
the treasurer held $1100 which was left
over from the show last year.
The attendance has not been as large
as that of the show a year ago, for which
there are several reasons. Last year a
number of excursion! brought hundreds
of people to the city, and the attendance
from the country round about was very
good. This year the excursions failed to
bring the crowds, and locally other at
tractions deterred many from attending
several days as was the custom last
year.
A free show, given by doctors has jbeen
giving performances each afternooriTard
night, and hundreds of people are feepc
from the show by the excellent muslo
and the funny program given at eailt
performance. The attendance last year
was over 30,000, and with all the difficul
ties encountered at this show, the record
will, be broken by several thousand ad
missions. A number of fine timber claims' have
been purchased recently up the Santiaro,
