Portland came to the rescue of New

prepared for shipment; last night 8333
German carp a whole carload of them.
The fish averaged slightly better thun
three pounds eaehftand were very mutii
alive when placed In boxes with, layers
of ice to keep them cool rn route. It
is expected that the fish will be all-o
for almost the entire distance to thu
metropolis.
This is the first time that a carload
of carp has ever been sent from Ore
gon to New York, or in foot to any
other place. The express charges on
the shipment, according to the Alaska
Fish company, the shippers, amounts
to $750. ,
The fish wllh arrive in New York
in time for the , Lenten season stui
afe expected, to result in a call- for
more : of the same ' variety. MiHt of
the carp were, caught by seiners lu
Scappose Creek.
Anglers are much elated ovor the
shipments because 'the carp have bepn
a drawback to the production of (tamo
fish in local waters for many ycnr.
