ASTOKIA, OREGON: KKIDAY.... ..APKILC9. 1S7 The Clatsop Mill has chartered the British bark Scottish Knight to load lumber for Todos des Sanitos. The State is due from San Fran cisco this morning ; the Columbia sails; the Ancon arrived in yesterday from Alaska. The Tacoma fire department held n meeting last night and selected com peting teams for the coming June tournament at Yancouver. The Washington Territory grand lodge, K. of P., meets at Vancouver, May 17th. Grand chancellor Jay Tuttle expects to be" present. The stockholders of the Astoria building and loan association will hold their first regular meeting at the court house next Wednesday even ing. . Curtis Baird the ex.county super intendent of Clackamas county, was sentenced by Judge Taylor at Ore gon City to four years in the peniten tiary for defrauding the school fund. The O. R. & N. employes don't know just what disposition the lease may make in their positions and are at least as much interested in future developments as any others in the state. The Salem Talk has been changed in name to the Daily Sentry and flies the prohibition banner. Rev. J. S. McCain is the new editor, and the ap pearance, typographically and other wise, is greatly improved. Instructions received by the regis ter and receiver of the U. S. land office, require that every person mak ing application to file a homestead or timber culture clakn must execute a non-mineral affidavit at the time. Bev. O. B. Whitmore leaves this morning en route to Salem, to attend the ministerial association at that place. There will be no morning service in the M. E. church next Sunday; Bev. J. McCormac will offi ciate in the evening. The Herald has been figuring up Albany's population and finds that there are 1,028 males and 1,036 fe males. From the general appearance of that sprightly valley exohange one would suppose it was published in a town of 4,000 people. The Walla Walla Union rightly thinks that it is worth chronicling that one day last week "Our Boys" hose team, of 'that city, with 12 men pulled a 1,100-pound cart 200 yards in 3A seconds. Good enough! "This is the kind of ohaps that the Astoria boys want to meet in friendly contest at Vancouver. The steamer Dispatch, purchased by.G.. T. Myers from the government will be taken around to his cannery on the Sound about the middle of May.. She i3 a small craft to venture on such a' dangerous trip, but the Oregonian thinks if she has fine weather, sho may possibly steer safely through the wrecks which lino the entrance to the Sound. Despite the showery weather last evening the fame of Mrs. Nina La Bowe's elocutionary powers attracted a considerable audience to the M. E. church to hear this gifted lady in some of her readings and selections, which were rendered with a degree of delicate appreciation of the ideas of the s'everal authors that marked the cultured training of theeader's nat ural ability. Whether comio or trag ic, ludicrous or pathetic the theme, she swayed her audience to the mood of the moment, and justly earned the applause that her efforts so heartily elicited.

BOBBING A RAILROAD TRAIN. San Francisco, April 28. The west bound express on the Southern Pacific railroad was stopped near Tucson, Arizona, at ten o'clock last night, by n band of train robbers. The mail and express cars "were detached and tho engineer com pelled to run the remainder of the train two miles ahead. Then they gave tho engineer and fireman a stick of giant powder and told them to compel the mail agents and express messengers to open their cars or they would compel them to throw the sticks and destroy tho car3. Then they robbed tho cars and secured about 4,000 or 5,000 from Wells, Fargo. None of tho passengers were molested. The train was stopped by piling ties on the track, and then swinging a red light. The Southern Pacific officials offer a thousand dol lars reward, and Wells, Fargo Express company a like amount for the appre hension of tho robbers. DON'T HOLD HIM. New York, April 28. Col.

B. & NCo.'s railroad and steamboats to the Union Pacific railroad company in a prac tically perpetual lease, naturally at tracts popular attention to the old dajs of the O. S. N. Co., the pioneer and predecessor of tho O. B. & N. Co., which, after seven years' existence, now gives way, in turn, to the Union Pacific and transcontinental traffic. It. was many years ago, .and in a small way, that the O. S. N. company was starte'd.- Capt J. O. Ainsworth; P.. B.- Thompson, S. G. Reed and W. S. "Ladd were among its incorpora tors. In the early seventies it made heaps of money, had everything its own way on the tipper and lower river, and. was run in a style that even now is reverted to with regretful contrast by Elijah Smith's employes. It was "regular steamboat style." If a captain or a purser or a steward wanted to chalk a man's hat from As toria to Portland, or from Portland to The Dalles; if a prominent employo saw fit to bring a friend to dinner on the trip, it was "all right" The com pany" was making plenty money, and the liberal, old fashioned way that it allowed in no way tended to diminish the profits? The old O. S. N. Co. occupies a warm spot in the hearts of a good many who recollect its workings. It had a tendency to build up the coun try and to make folks feel satisfied with themselves. When Jay Cooke uas booming his Northern Pacific stock in '71 and 72 he considered it necessary to buy large blocks of the O. S. N. Co.'s stork, and when the ciash came in '73, aud he went down under the ruiii:, this O. S. N. stock was tho most valuablo part of the broken banker's assets. It was all bought back again by its former owners, and the Columbia river company kept right on making money. In 187U Henry yillard appeared on the sceue. He saw at once the op portunities and the possibilities that, rightly worked, would develop into certainties, and in his fertile brain originated the idea of tho O. B. & N. company and Oregon Transconti nental. He first opened negotiations with the O. S. N. company, and after backing and filling for several months, in the meantime placing a direct count on every pound of freight aud passenger on the company's boats, and getting their figures and finding that tho business required more cap ital than he could then swing, he made the first move in the great and finely plannod financial game that was played in '81, '82 and '83 and which completed the Northorn Pa cific railroad. While in Portland he had got tho property of the O. S. N. Co. bonded, on a sort of option, for a 3 ear. This costh'im 3100,000. The option was given him May 23, 1879. He then got the Oregon Steamship company to give him similar papers. On tho 12th of Juno, 1879, nearly eight years ago, he organized the O. R. & N. Co. Tho names of the incor porators were Henry Yillard, Jas. B. Frv, A. H. Holmes, Wm. H. Starbuck, C.'E. Bretherton, C. Bors, W. H. Corbett, J. N. Dolph, Paul Schulze, N. Thielson, and C. N. Lewi. The capital stock was set at 86,000,000, divided iuto 00,000 shares of 100 each. On June 16th a mortgage was issued to the New York Farmers' Loan & Trust Co," and on July 15th, 6,000 bonds in the sum of $1,000 each, were.issued, payable thirty years af ter July 1st, 1879, with interest at six per cent per annum. So far Yillard had put up but $100,000: He went to New York with the option and tried to get Gould to comoMu, but that capitalist refused unless he coujd come in on the ground floor. He and Yillard then agreed to disagree, and Gould waited for nearly five years till he pulled him off his pedestal in January. 'SL Yillard is reported to have then gone to Europe, but meeting with little en couragement there to float what was, as time proved, a feasible auu money making scheme, he came back to this country and finally found in Endi cott of B oston, (now secretary of war and opposed to improvements at the Cascades), a willing adjunct. Endi cott, Pullman, and others stood in and on the 31st of March, 18S0, the O. B. & N. Ce: bought the O. S. N. Co.'s plant, paying S2,300,000 there for, which was considered at the time to be a big price. The Oregon Steamship company's plant had been secured on the 26th of the previous February. Tho new company, the O. B. & N. Co., then boomed things. They be gan building a railroad up the Co lumbia, and extended their operations in other directions. Tho stock and bonds which were in the hands of Boston capitalists, who secured them at a discount, went up appreciably in value. O. B. & N. stock was a good buy in Boston, New York and Phil adelphia, it touched par, passed it, sold at 110, 150, 180, and finally 200; then the stock was increased to 89,000,000; then $12,000,000; then $15,000,000. It made a handsome percentage even on this, inflated from the original $2,300,000 buy, enlarged to $6,000,000 of capital stock. It was always the backbone and mainstay of the famous Oregon Transcontinental, so dear to the memory of many Port landers, and through all the vicissi tudes of "84 held up well in value. Last Juno the assets of the Oregon Transcontinental were figured up, and the O. B.-& N. holdings then set down" as 139,413 shares at $108 a share, an agggregate of $15,055,600; the next in- value being $5,588,000 worth of Northern Pacific stock, com mon and preferred. This is the briefest outline of the formation of the company. A de tailed history, and account of Vil- lard's subsequent "blind pool" and the results would oxceei the limits of this article. But space must be found for a list of the boats that tho O. S. N. Co. transferred to the O. B. & N. Co., at the time the sale was made in the spring of 1880.

The Northern Pacific yesterday, says tho News of the 28th, put into effect from St. Paul and other eastern terminals to Portland, Asto ria, Tacoma rnd Seattle the special westbound tariff, whioh was prepared in Chicago in March to be used in case of emergency. This special tar iff is very nearly the same as tho transcontinental tariff which was in effect previous to. tho freight war last ear. In a. word, tho now rates are about 50 per cent, higher than those which prevailed before the in terstate commerce bill became a law. Tho Union Pacific has also adopted the emergency-tariff. - Tho O. B. & N. line yesterday put in operation the regular ante-war east bound transcontinental tariff to the Missouri river, Chicago, St. Louis and common points. Tho new rates, as far as they effect principal pro ducts, are a3 follews: Salmon In carloads, S1.25 per hundred pounds from Portland," As" toria, Tacoma and Seattle. Wool Compressed and baled, 19 pounds per cubic foot, when shipped under a valuation of 12 cents per pound, $1.50 per hundred pounds. Hops Interstate law rates on this product are $1.75 per hundred to Mis souri river and common point?, $1.85 to St. Louis and $1.95 to Chicago. These figures are a little lower than the. oil transcontinental rates and will not be disturbed. It is probable that the rates on the above articles will be put into effect also to New York and common points, as soon as arrangements, now pend ing, are perfected. Northwestern shippers will greatly appreciate such a favor. The Northern Pacific is publishing aspecial wool tariff, making rates from all points on its lino in Wash ington territory to eastern terminals. These rates are similar to those in effect last year, viz: $2.25 per. hun dred in sacks and $2 in compressed bales. Unnecessary Miery.
