that the royal fish are being canned at
the rate of twenty-five tons a day.

Major E. McNeil, who was appointed
receiver of the Oregon Railway & Navi
gation Company by Judge Bellinger,
June 25th, assumed the duties of. his
office. Owing to delay in receipt of doc
uments from the East, caused by inter
ruption to the mail service, the order of
the court was not entered until Tuesday
evening. Yesterday morning he filed
his official bond in the sum of $100,000,
with Messrs. H. W. Corbett and Henry
Failing as sureties, and qualified as re
Immediately after, Receiver McNeil
made a demand on Mr. Baxter, general
superintendent of the Union Pacific, for
the books and property of the O. R. &
N. Co. They were at once turned over
to him. . He then issued a general order
to all officers, agents and employes con
nected with the O. R.-& N. property,
continuing them in the same - positions,
with the same authorities and duties as
heretofore.
Some new offices bad to be created.
Mr. E. S. Benson was appointed general
auditor. Mr. Benson has been long in
the railway service as auditor, and was
with Mr. McNeil on the Iowa Central
railroad. He is en route to Portland,
and would have been here before now
bad he not been delayed by the strike.
He brings with him a force of clerks
from Omaha, who have beenemployed
there on O. R. & N. accounts. It is ex
pected that they will arrive and the
office be opened in a day. or two.
Mr. G. E. Wlthington, cashier of the
First National bank of this city, was
appointed treasurer, and the First
National bank will handle the funds.
Mr. W. H. Kennedy was appointed
chief engineer in charge of construction,
and will have immediate supervision of
the work of repairs. Mr. Kennedy was
formerly chief engineer of the road, is
thoroughly competent, and his famil
iarity with the road and the country
render him peculiarly fitted for the
position.
Mr. Drake C. O'Reilly, who has for a
long time been in the office of Mr. B.
Campbell, general freight agent of the
Union Pacific, has been appointed
assistant general freight agent, and will
have immediate charge of the traffic of
the water lines.
Mr. McNeil assumes personal man
agement of the property, and will have
his office in the Worcester block. The
work of opening the line will be pushed
with all possible vigor. Engineer Ken
nedy leaves this morning with a corps of
assistants and will prosecute the work
of repairs at every available point.
vegetables are in good supply with free
selling.
The poultry and egg demand continues
steady. Young fowls for broiling are
quoted at $2 to $2.25 per dozen ;' old at
$2.50 to $3. There is no change in the
egg supply or egg market.
The season is too early to make quota
tions on grain. The great strike on the
railroads has demoralized the commer
cial centers and the markets are lifeless.
The latest reports from the old world
indicate a full harvest and the world's
supply will be equal to, if not larger,
than last year. In the face of the pres
ent outlook buyers for the season lire
quite shy and look on the future with
distrust. Foreign markets are' in no
healthier condition than they were last
year at this time. In America, esti
mates of the probable yearly product in
dicate an increase of 100,000,000 to 150,
000,000 bushels over 1893, making a
product of 535,000,000 bushels in the
aggregate for 1894. After deducting the
amount necessary for home consump
tion 325,000,000 bushels, there would be
a surplus of 210,000,000 bushels for ex
port. In addition to the stock now be
ing carried over into this year's supply,
taking into consideration what is now
before, us in the breadstuff line, the
future outlook for active markets and
remunerative prices is none too en
couraging to the producer.
The wool market is nominally lifeless.
Some sales have been made on the free
wool basis. "

Dr. Charles Adams is never quite so
happy as when he can make some prac
tical joke work on someone about French
& Co.'s bank. Yesterday afternoon be
had completed arrangements for going to
Antelope this morning. Along toward
evening Deputy Sheriff Phirman, being
out after jurymen, served a summons on
the doctor.
"But." said he. "I can't eo. I have
made arrangements for going to Ante
lope in the morning, and I must go."
"That's all right," said " Phirman, !
but I think you're fooling me, and I
guess I'll have to keep you." i
"Indeed I ain't,'" said AdamB, "and
if you'll go with me up to French's, I'll !
prove it to you." And so they went to
the bank, and of course the first man in
sight was Virgil Bolton. Then Adams
spoke up saying:
"Virgil,-1 have been telling'Phirman
that I had arranged to go to Antelope
in the morning, but he insists on hold
ing me on the jury and thinks I am try
ing to fool him. You know all about it,
so will you . just give him the benefit of
your knowledge?" - .
' "Of course I know all about it," re
plied Virgil, "and the truth is, Mr.
Phirman, I would , stand in on any
average occasion to help him out, but it
is every good citizen's duty to Serve oh a
jury and not try to sneak out of it. The
doctor, no doubt, thought I woujd help
him out, but the fact is he is only fool
ing you."
' Adams gave him one reproachful
glance, and was not, for Phirman took
him; and that is where Virgil played
even. :
