Call Early and Take Your PORTLANDJARAURAPHS, What Canadian Pacific Officials TMntoftteMIine. xotes from the metropolis. Speciil to Tin: Astorian. Portland, March 4. In view of the facts that the Union Pacific in tends to establish a line of steamers between Portland and Asiatic points coupled with the prctjioscd line from Tacoma to the same ports, doubts ex ist if the trade of this coast is sufficient to compensate the three companies. In a conversation with the Canadian Pacific officials here they said that at present the amount of trade icr steamer from Asia to this port amounts to about a thousand tons per steamer, and they ctn'tscc how the Union Pa cific caii do much with three steamers. "The Canadian Pacific ruu three steam ers in the winter and seven in the summer, and are having three new steamers built. Of course, this port represents all of our trade, transcon tinental and coast. There is hardly business enough lo support two new companies as our transcontinental trade will not be affected as our rates are much lower. Having to depend on the coast trade, we ship little if anything via Portland lo Asia. The most exports comes from the cast via the Union Pacific line. This may injure our Portland trade, bnt will not harm the eastern. We think the North ern Pacific line at Taeomi would make the best showing of the two new companies." Wm.

Special by Tho California Associated Press. Washington, March 4. Argument on the appeal in the celebrated Cali fornia case of Cunningham the Stock ton sheriff against Marshall Nagle, was begun before the supreme court to-day. Justice Field was absent from the bench. Zach Montgomery opened the case for the state of Cali fornia mid recited in detail incidents of the tradegy in tho Lathrop station, last August, resulting in the killing of Judge David Terry. He stated that the position of the state of California before the court, is solely a question of jurisdiction aud all evidence touch ing Neagle's guilt or innocence is ir relevant. Tho lower court had hinged the question of jurisdiction in tho case upon the question of Neagle's guilt If Neagle was guilty of the crime, it was held the state court had jurisdic tion, otherwise not. "We will endeavor to show," said Montgomery, lthat whether Neagle was guilty or not, there is a contlict of opinion upon the question of juris diction." Montgomery further said, UI did not justify Terry's act in assaulting Judge Field, but denounced it as a grievous wrong." "If tho assault upon Judge Field made by Terry was with a deadly intent, which could be prevented only by the killing of Terry, then the kill ing was justified, but if Terry made an assault with lii3 hand, simply to provoke Judge Field into a duel, it puts a different light upon the ques tion." Montgomery was convinced that Terry did not make an attempt on Field's life. He referred to Terry's reputation as a duelist and declared his belief that Terry only intended to insult and challeuge Field to a duel. Montgom ery Ecored the U. S. marshal Franks for not warning Terry, whom he knew was likely to insult Judge Field, that his act would receive a swift punish ment by the official body guard who would protect Field. Montgomery then discussed the technical legal questions upon which hinged the issuance of the writ of habeas corpus to Neagle Montgomery was followed by U. S. attorney general Miller in behalf of Neagle. Miller said he intended lo discuss the questions which ho claimed controlled the entire case Tim first Latitat it is the duty of thajfiWitive department to protect tbiP'fi'Jfoiaxy. The second is, that, under the consti tution, it is the duty of the judiciary to sit in judgement oii the acts of its of ficials in performance or their duties, and this he proceeded to do in au able ami eloquent manner and quoted the decisions of eminent jurists, beginning with chiet justice Marshall, to sub stantiate his jiositiou. The argument in the case will bo concluded to-mor- The Charges to be InreitIfCted. Special to Tin: Astokian. Washington, March 4. Com mander McCalla, commanding the United States steamer Enterprise, called at the navy department this morning and had au interview with Commodore Ramsey, chief of tho bu reau of the navy. tic referred to the newspaper charges of cruelty and oppression on his part during the last c raise of the Enterjirlse, aud requests that a court or inquiry be appointed to investigate hi3 conduct.

Voorhees resolution relating to the fishery awards was reported back ad versely from the finance committee. Chairman Morreu said the commit tee had so acted because secretary of the treasury Windom had already awarded the contract, and the senate therefore had no power in the mat ter. Voorliees explained that he had in troduced the resolution believing that secretary Windom had not been fully lniormed on the subject, out that he would not earn- the subject further and thus oppose the action of the committee. The resolution was then postponed indefinitely. Relief of the Supreme Court. Special to Tun Astorian. New York, March 4.

IX THE 1XDIAX TERRITORY. Race Troubles Concerning Land. Kingfisher, Ind. Ty., March 4. Boomers are greatly aroused over the report of the Oklahoma .negro col onization. Early this morning boom ers at Down's station on Gutherie and Kingfisher stage route, took negro "ISuck' Hawkins from his bed and severly whipped him. He was sus pected of having fired the prairie gra33 on his neighbors claim.

Be fore the negroes could reload they were surrounded, and being thorough ly frightened promised to leavo the country. The negro Hawkins arrived at King Fisher this morning, asking for protection.

A Big Legislature Fight. Special to The Astorian. Bismarck, N. D., March 4. At no time since the early days of territorial legislation has the legislature fur nished as many sensations as were sprang on the senate to-day. For some time past the majority of the senators have been hot at "repeated gratuitous insults offered them bv at torney general Goodwin. Tho sen ate committee, which investigated the charges of corruption in connection with the lottery scheme and the election of U. S. seuators, is anxious to compel several state offi cials to appear as witnesses andltell all they know concerning the oft repeated charges of boodleism. Attorney gen eral Goodwin was requested to furnish the senate a written opinon as to the manner in which the committee should proceed against these recalci trant officials who have ignored its subpoenas. To-day the atto rney gen eral informed the senate in a flippant aud sarcastic vein that its committee had no powers worth speaking of. In fact the senate had better not bite off more than it could legally chew. As soon as the opinion was read senator Lamaure got the floor and roasted the attorney general in violent language He accused Good win of shielding unwilling witnesses to save his own scalp, and referred to him as a brainless monkey. Several other senatora followed in the same strain, and the attorney general's opinion was by a resolution fired into the wjiste basket and erased from tho records. The resolution wjis adopted with only three dissenting votes, denounc ing senators Dodds and Barlow for their attack upon their colleagues, and sent them a resolution removing senatorDodds from office of president pro tem. They went through the business with a whirl. To add to Dodds' discomfiture senator La Mauro had Dodds' bitterest enemy elected president pro tem by acclamation. There is talk of expelling Dodds and Barlow from the senate, and there is more excitement in Bismarck to night than there was during the fight over the lottery bill. Allison Asain Senator.
