Columbia river salmon is Inking h good many new routes to market this season. Among the neweat is a shipment from San Franoisoaby the Southern Pacific to Havre and Hamburg last week. The German bark Aeolus, Ileiners mas ter, from La Paz with salt, arrived in Jesterdoy morning; tho Tythonva, flour aden. cleared for Gneenstown; the Cilu of Delhi and Woodlark havo hid on to load salmon for .Liverpool.

Copies of these reports can be had upon application to this office. Our California friends aro damaged somewhat by the heavy rains of the last week, which extended over a large area. Bain in June is to California destruction to small fruit and to feed for stock; to us it came peculiarly welcome, and waa worth thousands of dollars to western Oregon and Washington. Keelar, who was arrested on Wednes day on the charge of selling without a license, was given a jury trial in the po lice court yesterday afternoon, the or dinance not being sustained by the jurj', which brought in a verdict for the de fendant. He will probably take out a license to-day, and thus end the matter. The first annual ball of Cashing Posi No. 14, G. A. R., and Cnshing Relief Corps No. 3, on the evening of the Fourth of July promises to bo the event of the day or night rather. The committee of arrangements are making every effort to hare tho ball a success and will doubtless succeed. The advertisement of the post and corps appears this morning. "TUE HIDDEN HAM).' Whitely's original "Hidden Hand' com pany appeared in their great specialty at Occidental hall last evening and gave the -beet rendition of that piece ever pro duced in Astoria. The 'Characters were well sustained throughout, the scenery and surroundings were well placed and the play deserved, a larger audience than was present. The third act was especial ly good, and the troupe have the oredit of feting thorough in their work. They go "to California on the Oregon to-day. Temperance YVarL. Ed. Astebias: At 750 o'clock Colonel Huwkius will deliver a temperance lecture in the Pres byterian church, and to-morrow after soon, at 8 o'clock in the Congregational church, he will talk to the children of the several Sunday .schools, aB it is under stood they will unite at that place. A Band of Hope will be organized, and it is hoped that all parents will take their children, whether members of Sunday scfeools or not, and it is desired that nil the young people will also attend and as sist m the work of temperance. X. A Castaway Bottle Picked Pp. The following is taken .from the Pa cific Commercial Advertiser of May 24th: Yesterday, Mr. W. H. Cummiugs hand ed the contents of a bottle that he re cently picked up on tho beach of the island of Kahoolawe, consisting of four business cards, bearing the following names: 'J. J. Mack Co., No. 11 Front street, San Francisco. Represented by Wm. Mack" "TMos. J. Veach, office 223 Sacramento street, San Francisco." "Z. B. Adams, Tourist. Address, J. C. Johnson & Co., 12 and 11 Pine street, ; San Francisco." ! VJames E. Bryan, representing Louis j Kline & Co,, No. 110 Bush street, San Francisco." On the back of the letter is written in pencil: , . At Sea Off Columbia River May 5th. 1883, " "Fairwell Vain World," "All Of 418." The late hour at which the cards were banded to us prevents us from inveBti- zjatinE the matter further.

Navigation company's road has boen completed to La Grande, and the loco motive has entered the town for tho first time. The road will bo pushed nlong as rapidly as possible, and will bo finished in about two months to a junction with tho Oregon Short Line. Says the Laconner Mail: "There is great stagnation in the logging business at present, and tho camps are shutting down in all directions. Logs arc down to S4 (ft $5 per thousand, and of course there Is very little money in tho business at that rate. Resides the camps already closed on the Stillaguamish and Skagit, it is likely that a number of others on the latter stream will soon discontinue work. The Northern Pacifio train was delayed twelve hours last Thursday by tho caving of tho east end of Littlo Iron tunnel, near Rutler, fifteen miles west of Helena, Montana. Baggage and express had to be transferred by wagon. The train was nlso delayed by a partial washing away of a bridge across Gallatin river, eighty miles east of Helena. Tho road has since been repaired and tho trains are running on time again. On the 19th, in Portland, tho directors of tho Oregon Railway and Navigation Company held their first meeting and elected the following efficers: Prasident, T. Jefferson Coolidge of Boston; first vice president, C. H. Prescott; second vice president, George O. Manchester; secre tary, Theodore Wygant; assistant secre tary, Alfred Rodman; treasury. F. R. Nourse; assistant treasury, Theodore Wygant; comptroller, C. J. Smith. Tho Oregonian thinks that this looks as if there is to be no change in the personnel of tho management. General Miles, commanding the de partment of tho Columbia, has issued orders, in compliance with instructions from army headquarters, for the transfer of the Twenty-first infantry to the de partment of the Platte. Company A, now at Boise barraoks, will proceed to Fort RuBsell, Wyoming territory; com panies B and D, at Port Townsend, will leave on the steamer for San Francisco on the 21th, for Fort Sidney; company E, at Fort Klamath, will proceed, via Red ding and the Central Pacific, to Fort Sid ney; the headquarters; band and compa nies E. F, G, II, I and K, at Vancouver barracks, will leaTe here on the steamer next Wednesday for Fort Sidney via San Francisco. The Fourteenth regiment is now on the way to this coast. George Wright Post, G. A. R., will give Gen. fl. A.Morrow, colonel of the Twenty-first infantry, and commander of the bar racks, a farewell reception this evening Shfe Took the Whole Lot. "Do your women customers bother you muoh?" asked a citizen who was talking with a Woodward avenue grocer the other morning. ''Well, they seldom want to pay the prices. It seems natural for them to want to beat down the figures. There comes one now who probably wants strawberries. Here are some fresh ones at 15 cents per quart, and yet if I should ask her only 11, she'd want them for 10." "Say, try it once, just for n joke. If sh asks the price, put it at ll. Tho grocer agreed, and presently the woman came up, coanted the sixteen boxes of berries under her nose, and of course inquired, ''Have vou anv strawberries this morn inc?" ':l'es 'in." ''Fresh ones?" "Yes'm.' "How much?" ''Only 11 cents per box." "I'll take th6 whole lot," she quietly ob served, as she handed out n five-dollar bill: and take "em she did. The citizen disappeared at that moment, and tho grocer somehow believes that it was n put up job lift ween the two. Detroit Free Press. NET TIIE LEST. Cheap photographs mut bo poor photographs.

Field's probablo Democratic presidential candidacy is re ceiving much attention in the east. Southern delegates aro for Cleveland. Tho information publisfied in San Francisco recently that several hundred Chinamen had left, the hold of a ship whore small-pox was raging, and had scattered over the city, created a sensa tion which has not yet been calmed. Gen. Grant was found at his New Jer sey residence on the 18th reading a morn ing jaxer on tho piazza, his lamo log resting on his crutch. Ho wa3 asked how tho republican tickot suited him, and replied: "I am out of politics entirely." The porto is notreconciled to the out j look of affairs in Egypt, and has address ed a circular to the powers insisting that England's self-imposed tasfeof restoring order in Egypt is so far completed that army occupation ought to ber withdrawn.

In the house Randall is opposed to the insertion in the consular una diplomatic bill of $250,000 for u state department neutrality fund. This mori"ey"u is under stood, the state department wishes to nse to further negotiations for a treaty with the Nicaraguan government, which shall accord to the United States control of an inter-oceanic canal-route across the Isth mus. There is strong opposition to this appropriation. Capt. Eads? who wants to build a ship railroad across the isth mus of Tehauntepec and representatives of tho Panama canal enterprise, are here, bitterlj oxiposing the n'ppropriation. The representatives of the Nicaraguan canal, on the other hand, are doing all in their power to further it. This oppropri ation was made by the senate in secret session, and it is impossible for money to be voted by the house in such a man ner. A dispatch from Souoru, Cal., gives particulars of ono of tho most complicat ed tragedies probably that over occurred. Edmund Gallagher, 22 years old, shot Mrs- Otis Greenwood in tho face and breast with a doublo-barreled Bhot-gun. Her son Otis ran after Gallagher and fired twice at him without affect. Robert Watson pursued Otis Greenwood, and the latter turned on Wntson and shot him twice In tho heck and back. Watson fell, whereupon Watson's sou opened fire upon Greenwood, but the latter escaped to Sonora, whero he surrendered. Learn ing the facts, tho Bheriff started for tho scenoand arrested Gallagher. Both he and Greenwood wero lodged in jail. Mrs. Greenwood and Watson have since died. The tragedy was tho result of n dispute about Watson running water across Greenwood's mining claim. Mrs. Green wood was tho widow of a once prominent lawyer in tho locality. Tho others are all respectably connected. CLAWS OS canm:d hoods. The abuse of reclamation privileges has destroyed more friendly business re lations than any other influence known to tho trader. It is strange that some equitable understanding of the rights of shipper and consignee cannot be estab lished and maintained, especially whero both are obviously anxious to continue the harmonious and profitable commer cial relations which have 'existed between them for years. In canned goods, heavy reclamations have often threatened dis astrous consequences to tho exporter who has sent out his goods confident of the return of a handsome profit on the con signment. There is often some show of modest)' in the presentation of an un usually heavy demand, but in many in stances, consignees will unblushingly pre sent a claim which would consume not only the brokerage but the packer's profit as well. Arguments end explanations follow, and it is a long time before the matter is adjusted, and even then the consummation is far from satisfactory to either party concerned. A correspondent of the London Grocers' Gazette, calling attention to the unsatisfactory condition of the canned goods trade in respect to the matter of claims as at present exist ing throughout the trade, says: "The sub ject is one of great importance when we consider tho large capital 'invested, the enormous overturn, combined with a con tinued annual increase in-tho demand and consumption in this class of busi ness. There appears to be a want of any recognized rule or accepted prinoiple throughout the trade on this head as' be tween the buyers and sellers: and we have ourselves experienced much difficulty in arranging satisfactorily tho differences which have frequently arisen between the importer and tho purchaser after an inspection and examination in bulk has tafcen place, resulting in some instances in renunciation of contract, coupled with dissatisfaction and unpleasantness. A ten per cent, examination is general rec ognized as an average, but when this is taken and the result proves unsatisfac tory, in the opinion of the buvers or Hell ers, as the case may be, a second exami nation is demanded and taken with, as often happens, a like result. Many brok ers sell upon tho follewing: 'Allowances to be settled on result of examination of not Ies3 than ten per cent, of the cases for average.' Bat, supposing the parties in terested do not agree, and olect to have the whole of tho bulk examined, who is liable for the cost in the second instance? Recently we had a case in point a sale of a few thousand cases of salmon, sold under the usual clause of ten per cent, examination for blown, short and pricked tins. The result, according to the buy er's opinion, embraced the following in the average: 'Blown,' 'short,' 'stained,' 'pricked, 'collapsed,' 'doubtful,' 'light,' and showing claims amounting to over three per cent upon tho whole parcel; wheteas the importer's allowance was equal to one-quarter per cent." The po sition of the correspondent will be best appreciated by those who, in recent ex- Eeriences, have felt the burdon imposed y one of tho peculiarly-adjusted modem reclamations.
