conduct services as usual, morning and
evening, in the Presbyterian church, to

is being made for another salmon fishing

Information from Port Townseud has
been received at the branch hydrograph

report an extraordinary current, more

Fuca, which recounts for the fact of
many vessels getting into Barclay sound.
Under the provisions of the new act of
the legislature, passed during this ses
sion, tho senate and house in joint ses
sion, on Thursday last, elected Captain
J. A Brown, of Brown & McCabe, steve
dores, and Capt. A. Noyes and Louis
Wilson, state pilot commissioners.
Capt. A. Noyes and Louis Wilson, being
both residents of Astoria, the headquar
ters of the pilot commission will, we
presume, for the next two years at least,
be in this oity, where indeed it ought al
ways to have been. The next thing in
order is for the new board to appoint a
secretary.
The sociable given by the ladies of the
Presbyterian church, at the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Holden on Thursday
evening, was a most enjoyable affair and
all who attended were loud in their
praisos of tho good management dis
played in entertaining so large a gather
ing, not less than one hundred ladies
and gentlemen being present on the oc
casion. The order of amusements were
varied with recitations, readings, vocal
and instrumental music and pleasant
games, after which the young gentlemen
were kept busy in handing around to the
numerous representatives of the fair sex
and all others present a bountiful supply
of delicious refreshments. Guests and
entertainers alike enjoyod a most pleas
ant evening.
CLEVELAND'S CABINET.
New Yokk, Feb. 9. A Herald's Albany
special correspondent says: "From in
formation received late last night a
shadow of doubt cannot now exist as to
who will be the next secretary of tho
treasury. 1 have it from the best au
thority that Manning has accepted tho
tender made him by Cleveland."
Albany, Feb. 19. There were no visit
ors to Cleveland to-day, and it is under
stood he is at work on his inaugural
address, and will devote his attention to
it exclusively until finished. It is tho
impression of leading Democrats here
acquainted with Cleveland and Manning,
that while tho latter has not been for
mally tendered the appointment .of
secretary of tho treasury, at the present
moment there is little doubt that his
name will be found in the list on March
4th for the treasury portfolio. Manning,
according to his friends, felt more aver
sion than inclination to take any cabi
net position, preferring a less prominent
and less responsible po3itionIin life; but
aB Cleveland has in a degree insisted
that Manning shall be one of his advis
ers, the latter consents to accent the
post.

40HN WOOD'S SIXTr DOLLARS.
It I wait. HI Endorsement in Sab Francisco.
Washinutox, I), C., Feb. 9, 183."..
Ed. Astebian:
I have seen an article under the cap
tion "John Wood's Sixty-one Dollars
How the Money was earned by the South
Bend," etc., in your issue of January 3,
18&Z. And as it would seem that the
writer had been misinformed upon sev
eral important points in the matter re
ferred to, 1 desire to furnish a brief state
ment of the facts in the case so far as I
have been able to ascertain them in this
cit3'. The bill of tho tug South Bend, to
gether with one in favor of the tug Gen.
Garfield was prepared by me and trans
mitted without being receipted to the
treasury department, Washington, D. C,
with a letter dated San Francisco, Cali
fornia, November 22, 1831, recommend
ing their payment. At that time I was
acting as superintendent of the Twelfth
life saving district. The bill of the
Sotdh Bend being in the sum of $G0, in
stead of $G1 as stated. These bills were
received at the treasury department De
cember 1, 18S1, and in due course of busi
ness were approved as submitted and re
ferred by the secretary of the treasury
December 7. 1831, to the first auditor o"f
the treasury for examination and settle
ment. Accounts were stated in both cases
by the first auditor Decembers, 1831, and
referred by him to the commissioner of
customs, where both accounts were veri
fied and approved December 10, 1881. On
December 21, 18S1, a warrant was issued
covering the amount of both bills, and
drafts on the assistant treasurer of tho
United States at San Francisco, Cnl.. in
favor of both tugs Jand for the amount
of their respective bills were mailed to
Shoalwaler bay. W. T., December 22,
1881. When I forwarded the bills I was
aware that being unreceipted they would
under the law have to tuke this course in
settlement, but it was thought that less
demy would occur than would attend tho
effort to secure their receipt by the proper
parties, .is mis couiu uo ciono only by
mailing them from San Francisco to
Shoalwater bay and awaiting their re
turn. It will be seen, however, that duo
diligence was used at the treasury de
part ineni ana inanuecuecKs were mailed
'in less than six weeks" from the date of
my letter in San Francisco.
If Mr. Wood placed any bill with Mr.
L, W. Case of your city for collection, as
stated in the communication referred to,
nothing is known of it here, for no such
claim has been received from him at the
treasury department. The statements
which follow this one in regard to tho de
lay attending the adjustment of these
claims at Washington and the require
ments which were made of Mr. Case are
absolutely without any foundation in
fact.
The check drawn in favor of the Gen.
Garfield was presented at the office
of the assistant treasurer at San Fran
cisco, California, and paid April 2.1,
1882.
No delay need have attended tho pay
ment, by the assistant treasurer, of the
check of the South Bend, other than
would have occurred had the check been
drawn against any banking house. The
prompt payment of the check in favor of
the tug Gen. Garfield shows that the
methods of identification required by the
assistant treasurer at San Francisco,
worked no hardship in that case, and
it is presumed that nothing more
was demanded in the case of the
South Bend, and these requirements are
such as any bank would have exacted up
on tho presentation of the check.
The statement that Mr. Wood tore the
check up appears to be verified, the
pieces having been preserved and sent by
mc usamiuuk neiisurer ut oau rrancisco,
to tho treasurer of the United States
here. The treasurer returned tho check
restored to the assistaut treasuer at San
Francisco, in whose possession it now is,
with instructions to pay it upon a proper
endorsement.
Thero appears to have been no intend
ed or unnecessary delay on the part of
any oracer oi tne government, nor any
thing exacted of Mr. Wood excent what
is absolutely required by law and for the
protection ot tne party to whom the
moneys was due.
I would say as regards the lifo savin?
service that its connection with the bill
ceased when it was referred by tho secre
tary of tho treasury to the first auditor,
which was on the 7th of December, as
above stated, being 15 days after it was
mailed from San Francisco, and that if
there had been unnecessary delay after
this date, the life saving service could
not be held responsible.
It is therefore with a feeling that you
will gladly print the facts in the case in
order that any wrong impression which
your former article may have produced
may be promptly met and overcome, that
I venture to request the publication of
this statement. .

PniLUIELt'Ml FIRE.
PiuiADEuniA, Feb. 19. A destructive
fire is now burning fiercely on Chestnut
street between Second and Front. It
originated in a five-story brick structure.
No. 125 Chestnut street, occupied by
Stephenson fc Co.. Getz Stratton, Rich
ard A. BIy the, and Garsede fc Co., dealers
in-cotton and wool. After the fife was
discovered and the flames burst from the
windows, the front of the threes uppar
stories fell out and crashed into the
street. The loud noise thus made rail-til
a rumor that an explosion had occurred
but it is not yet known whether or not
there were any explosives in tho building.
When tho wall fell, a laborer engaged in
removing a safe from an adjoining build
ing was buried by the falling bricks uud
instantly killed. The flames spread
rapidly to buildings on the east and Nos.
123 and 121 Chestnut street wero soon en
velopsd in flames. The former lmildiug
was occupied by Irvine C. Bcatty fc Co..
dealers in worsted varns. and the latter
by Geo. II. McFndden fc Co., c.stton deal
ers. Nine lurge business houses wero almost
completely burned out, six damaged and
four others incurred losses which many
thousand dollars will not repair. The
corn exchange and bank are in great dan
ger, as tho fire as still burning. A com
plete square on Lstitia street has burned
already.
The loss thus far is roughly estimated
atlotween two and three millions.
John McCourt, a fireman, has since
died from injuries. A body taken from
the ruins, and which was supposed to be
Joseph Blyler, has sinco been identified
as that of Thomas Marshall, a drayman,
who was in the building where the fire
originated at the time the wall fell.
Blyler was also in the building just pre
vious to the falling of the wall, but es
caped. The losses will aggregate about $2,500.

Cuicaoo, Feb. 19. J. W. Virtue, Ore
gon commissioner of mines, is here en
route to the New Orleans exposition with
an exhibit of the mining industries of
eastern Oregon. As the legislature did
not act on the project until January, tho
exhibit, Mr. Virtue says, is not as full as
it umeiHisB huuiu uuvo ueeii, out as ii is
it will place over 3,090 specimens on exhi
bition. On his table, scattered promis
cuously about, was nearly $10,000 worth
of gold in quartz and nuggets, but the
most. valuable of the collection had been
sent by express. Mr. Virtuo believes
that the trade of eastern Oregon natur
ally belongs to Chicago and other eastern
cities, rather than to towns on tho Paci
fic slope, and his great object in making
the best showing at tho exhibition is to
attract the attention of capitalists and
business men to tho resources of his
region, which aro not generally appre
ciated. Heavy gravel mines "aro but
beginning to show their value, and tho
region, of which Raker City is tho dis
tributing point, is ranking" rapid ad
vances. If eastern manufacturers and
wholesale houses, ho says, would reach
out for its trade it would be an easv
matter to secure it against Portland and
San Francisco.
