It must be that the little lull in bnsiness has given them the first chance to po Portland or some oilier exposed place. The new fronts that have been put in the lower stories of several business buildings are a great improvement, and the number should be increased as such changes add much to the ap pearance of a town. A quick real estate transaction was reported yesterday. A comparative stranger went into a certain dealer's office and within five minutes of his arrival tlie deed was made out for the cash sale of two lots to him. The frequent tete-a-tetes between the lawyers in the Brower case yes terday were highly amusing to the court and spectators. References to their behavior in their school days seem to offer the lest chance for witi cisms. Papers were in lively circulation yesterday containing the agreement printed in full in Snuday's Astoriax, regarding the transfer of the railroad stock in trust, to C. P. Huntington. One had signatures on it representing 200 shares. Another contract, more specific in detail, was under consideraton yes terday by the Pacific Cable Construc tion company, and the property own ers along tlie proposed route.

WE ARE DISCOVERED! ITIb Uiiiyersal Trnst Enwrapping ColniWa Canneries. I TO HE IWUGHT iiy rxc. LJSH COJX. During the last two years the news papers have had considerable to say about the alleged purchase by Eng lish syndicates, of cattle, coal oil, mines, factories, and many other American institutions. Even-thing, from a corset factory to a distillery, from the ice fields on Maine's frozen rivers to the golden oranges on the sunny slopes of the foothills of California, h:is. in turn been reported bought or bonded by representatives of English capital, and now it appears that we, on the Colum bia river, have been discovered, and that the salmon canneries along the banks of the lower Columbia are in a fair way to be transferred for value re ceived, k) an English syndicate to be owned and operated by them. The Mobnzng Astokian- of the 13th had an article thereon, giving the news, as usual, 21 hours ahead of its esteemed contemporaries, that such a move was on foot, and that a gen tleman named J. W. Alderman, had arrived the day before and was here viewing the landscape o'er, and getting local opinion :is to the feasibility of a big purchase, securing the control of all the salmon canueries on the lower Columbia. The matter since then has pro gressed so far and so favorably jus to justify more extended mention. To buy the salmon canneries on this river is a financial proposition that is a new one. Many and futile are the attempts that have leen made to form some sort or harmonious com bination among the three dozen salm on canneries in this vicinity, all efforts in that direction resullingin an agree ment to disagree. In March, 18S7, the last effort iu that direction was made, but two or three prominent canners backed out at the hist minute, aud the proposi tion fell throngh. Since then everybody in the business has been going in a crowd bv him self. A prominent member of the guild was seen yesterday relative to the pro iosed transfer. He said "Mr. Alderman means bnsiness. He treats with each canncr separately, and asks for a definite statement, a yamtion on tlie property tlie transfer to include tne imiiamg, plant and real estate. 1 am informed that he has a ninety days1 option on every cannery on the river except thtee, and believe the thing is a go. The basis of valu ation you can understand when I tell you that the Occident cannerv is bonded for $22,000. It is figured now that the whole thing will be trans ferred at an aggregate sum between $S0O,OOl)and $1,000,000." "There is any amount of money be hind this thing. While known ?i3 an 'English' syndicate, the fact is that it is the worlds money. Men m Havre, Antwerp, Loudon, andYienua have idle capital to operate through Eng lish agents, and the field in this coun try is a promising one." "The syndicate, should it secure the Columbia salmon canueries will run them on strictly business principles, and to make money. Each cannery 4wil I be placed in charge of a manager, un der the direction of a general resident manager. Everything will be run on an economical scale, and the matter will be in charge of men who thor oughly understand the running of the business. "What effect the transfer will have on the business interests of Astoria, is as yet, an unsolved problem. Mr. Alderman tells me that all supplies, etc. so far as possible will be pur chased here, and so far as I am com petent to judge, the interests of the city will not be greatly affected or changed thereby." Should such change be made, it will obviously affect the status of the Co lumbia River Fishermen's Pro tective Union. It is reasonable to suppose that should one concern own and operate all the canneries as one establishment it would have more to sav about the price of the raw material, than the canneries have had to say of late years. It is believed that the first move would be a conference between the representatives of the syndicate aud the representatives of the union with a view to a mutual understand ing. In that case it is more than probable that the union would favor a reduc tion in the number of boats on the river, to run, say 700 the coming sea son, and that those thus employed in so greatly reduced numbers, le resi dent fishermen and members of the union. The pending negotiations lend in terest to the situation and further de velopments will be looked forward lo with interest Heirs Jliist Reside in this Country. Mention was made in The Astoriax last week of an unusual case. A. F. Cotter, last November filed on a tim ber claim. A few weeks after he died, and when the time was up, W. R. Mc Farlane went to Oregon City as ad ministrator of the estate to complete faual proof, etc. It was then under stood that this could be done, that is, the administrator of the estate cotdd go on and comply with the usnal for malities. But it now appears that the heirs must reside in this country, and as Mr. Cotter's relatives are residents of Canada the final proof cannot be made. II-ippj' lloosicrs. Win.

THE BROWER CASE, What Was Sail and Done in Tie Jnstlce Court. a rr.iintCT or xot ouilty. After much talk and a continuance of the case from a former date, the trial of Prof. Brower came off yester day in the justice or the peace court The court room was packed with in terested spectators both morning aud afternoon. School children hung around outside anxious for the out come :is lo whether it should favor scholar or teacher. As the case took up considerable time the jury were un easy and longed for softer seats than the hard tops of settees with no backs. The following weio the jury: Robert Carruthers, C. S. Gunderson, Thomas Byrie, James Hess, J. T. Abercrombie and W. B. Ross. The examination of the witnesses commenced with Alena Graham who was punished by Prof. Brower. She was a large girl for thirteeu-years aud looked a3 if she could with no difficulty pick up and carry off the pedagogue She gave a careful statement of the incident, which was the best evidence or the prosecution. She said that Professor Brower struck her so severely that she yet carried three si ots on her shoulder and arm and several marks on her hands at present, a week and a halt after the event; that she was not doiug any thing that deserved a ruler being used; that sho told him to slop and he would not; that he forced her into the comer and held her there where he struck her over a dozen times. Tlie cross examination developed noth ing new. Mrs. Graham wjis very vig orous in her testimony and stated that her daughter could hardly use her arm for several days, that she w;ts obliged to dress her and prepare her food. She also described her talk with Prof. Brower and a former pun ishment by him of the child. Once or twice in her testimony"she branched off into invective on the teacher, but in the main kept to tlie alleged facts. Mr. Graham created considerable laughter by telling how he went to the school house with a firm intention to thrash Prof. Brower, but Avhen he saw him, he looked so pale and weak that he had compassion and did not execute his plans. He -said Alena's arm and shonlder looked like pounded beef. Esther Strong, one of the pu pils, was shown the ruler and identi fied it Ray Morion, Annie Ammuud son, Anna Ferry and Eva Holmes also testified for the prosecution all giving virtually the same story. Alma Holmes, Magnus Gallagher, Oliver Bell, Emma Bell, Mrs. Enberg, and Mrs. Lake, for the defense, were then examined. At this point lawyers Curtis and Dell had a spirited discussion, in which city attorney Curtis accused Mr. Dell of poor judgment, saying: "You never had a child in your life. What do yon know about itV' This sally provoked applause, Dr. Estes said that he carefully ex amined the girl's arm on the Monday following the punishment, and thought there was nothing serious in her condition. Professor Brower closed the testi money for the defense. He described all the circumstances of the punish ment, and said that Alena Graham often failed in her studies; that on lhat day, February 13, she failed com pletely in her spelling les sons. She was sent to her seat and told to study it. She did not. Then he ordered her to come to the platform and sit in a chair facing the blackboard. She talked out loud the same there and he told her lo be quiet Not doing so he went lo punish her. She clinched her list lo prevent the ruler being used on her hand. He struck her, but not hard, on the arm and said ho would stop if she would behave She did not con sent Finally he held her in the cor ner and hit her somewhat harder, bnt not so forcibly as represented by the other side. She then left the room saying she was going home. Later her parents came to interview htm. He further testified lo show her pre vious conduct aud how she had been once before punished. With tins wit ness through, both sides rested and the arguments were made to the jury. After due deliberation they rendered a verdict of "not guilty". SPARROW FLi:V TO SEA. Crowbills I'rovitlenre On County Coast. The Parillc Providence got in its work in great shape on the little steamer Tom Mor ris last Saturday. About two o'clock that morning the boat left Willapa bound for Nnhcotta Sealaud. On board were John McMillan and wife of Hoquiam, Al. Stream of North Cove, Judge Cobb of Tacoma, G. C. Fulton and Wm. Loch of Astoria, and a negro miaslrel troupe The boat put Al. Steam and Judge Cobb ashore in a dingey at Toke's point, but instead of making the turn and heading down the bay the captain, Sparrow, put his wheel around and stood down the coast When daylight came the truth appeared in all its startling rugged ness, and as the passengers dropped on the fact they breathed prayers of thankfulness aud got the captain to turn round and get back as quick as tne Almighty would let him. "Three wise men of Gotham went to seT in a bowl; it the bowl had been stronger my story would have been longer," Had the usual rough water pre vailed along that stretch of coast, the little boat would, in all probability, never have seen land again, and tlie crabs and transplanted lobsters would have had a picnic. Fortunatclv for the party, the water wti3 smooth, and the only result was a little more trav eling than the passengers had bar gained for, arriving at their destina tion nlxmt noon. There is hardly money enough in the universe, how ever, to coax auy one of them to make the same trip in the same boat again. SS?m:irI:t1lc Itf;srnc. Mrs. Michael Curtain.

Great Stacks of Com for Duties On Mjortetl Goois. LIGHT TimSTIES THIIOWX OUT. Collector Hobson was seated at his desk yesterday morning when a Mokmxg Astokian reporter saw him, with sundry stacks of gold in front of him wliich had just been paid as duty on 50 tons of Liverpool salt aud 12,926 boxes tin plate just arrived on the British ship Jfenai. The coin aggro gated in value $1-1,220.20, and looked attractive in rows piled two inches or twenty in height "Now would be a good time to skip," was the observation of one, but even if that were the intention a man couldn't skip very far with that much on his person. Tliis coin goes by express to the sub treasury at San Francisco. A plain, ordinary private individual sending so much money would get a draft on an Astoria bank and send it that way, but TJncle Sam works in a mysterious way his wonders to per form, and has all coin sent by express. The count completed, E. Z. Fergu son, as one of tlie last of his many graceful official acts, stepped to the glas3cae which contains so much bijouterie and verlu, and removed therefrom a scales, for the government is so particular that the coin must be weighed. This scales is so delicately adjusted that it would weigh the unexpressed thoughts of tin infant, and its poiso is so fragile that the llntlering of a mos quito's wing would disturb it Being in iosition the weight repre senting a light twenty dollar gold piece was put in one side, and one of the 711 twenties on the table on the other. There are two weights, -one representing the weight of the twentv dollar piece as it leaves the mint, the other the lowest weight allowed by the mint officials for ordinary wear and tear. The latter was used. Collector Hobson selected those only which lore date prior lo 1SS0, as those since then arc always found full weight: one of the vintage of "Gl was over weight, one or '77 was so light as to jus tify the belier that a Chinese "sweater" had lcen at work on it, and half a dozen more were unable to hold the weight level, and so were tossed to one side to lx replaced by coin up to the standard. "If we j-ent one down to the San Francisco sub treasury," said Mr. Hobson, "that was underweight, they would stamp a big "L on it and send it back." The weighing being over, the coin was securely packed and strapped, and will go to the sub treasury. The duty on tin plate is 1.1 cents lcr pound, the plate coming in 112 pound lx)xes. The present congress, will, it is thought, increase the duty on this necessary article to encourage its production in this country. CHANCING AN OFFIOK That Was the Scene of Many a Story. The clatter of saws and hammers and the pile of broken briok alongside the First National bank led a Mokn ixa Astorian reporter yesterday to in vestigate what was going on. He found that the old office was under going considerable change, and that handsome new oak counters and rail ing and plate glass was being put in, greatly to the improvement of the con venience of the premises. The old marble mantel and fireplace was removed. That fireplace has been the scene of a good many nar rated exploits, the semicircle of the captains and bar pilots and British skippers that used to sit around in the years gone by, having had many a yarn to spin as they smoked and looked at the glowing coals. Mariners from all the seas have sat there and told tales of voyages -and wrecks and hair-breadth escapes. Men have come iu exhausted and told of weeks of suffering and privation, aud many a good story has been heard beside that old fireplace that has now vanished, forever, lo be replaced by the chink of coin and the rustle of crisp currency.

Astoria came very near .having her population increased, yesterday, by the number of 24 persons in one lump. On board of the Santa Rosa in the steerage was a German family of 22 children, aside from the parents. This may seem like an over statement, but it is well verified. The mother stated that they had been living in California, but they had heard so much of Wash ington that they concluded a better living could be made there than in the south. She said she had been strongly persuaded to stop in Astoria, because sho hod no definite place in mind, but the assur ances of support wero not positive enough to warrant hec getting off here. When asked if the children stood the sea voyage well the reply was made that the older ones were sick while the younger ones seemed to keep their stomachs well balanced. This is a very remarkable case. Prob ably there are very few families of like numbers in the country, or who have held together so well. They could almost start a village of their own. The oldest child was a fair haired man 30 years of age: the youngest a little toddling lassie. The family gronp attracted universal attention. SPKCIAL: BENEFIT!
