He fill Soou SaM Projosiflon. a Definite Till: EXACT ST.LTKOF Till: CASK. i Yesterday's Astokian contained the only true statement published re garding the result of the conference of the committee of directors of the Astoria and South Coast road with C. P. Huntington in Portland last Monday and Tuesday. The Columbian, winch cannot, ap parently, tell th? truth about any thing at home or abroad, says Mr. Huntington has signed a contract to build the road. This is false and leads to wrong impressions.

This was naturally gratifying to the J representatives of our city, evincing, as it did, the deep personal interest he had in the matter upon wuicn iney were couiemiig. tVfter the second interview, and interview, after the matter had been examined and understood, as far as practicable, in so short a space of time, Mr. H. said: "Gentlemen: I am convinced of the value of the road :is a transcon tinental terminus. 1 want to see it built, and myself and niy associates will build it under certain conditions." He named, in general, the desired t ion was submitted to him signed by C. W. Fulton, Alfred Jvinnev and J. W. Conn. This proposition, in efiect was that the citvof Astoria wonld give ti bonus or 200,000, would turn over all the pro propcrt now owned by the Astoria and South Coast Railway Co., includ ing the completed line to the seaside, tho terminal facilities, and everything appertaining to the present holdings, rights of ways, etc., lie, on his part, to guarantee the building of the hundred i miles of standard guage railroad to transcontinental connection with the broad gauge Southern Pacific system. Some minor conference developed the fact that the sum of 200,000 named as the bonus, wonld be the smallest amonnt that would be favorably considered. Upon consultation with his associ ates Mr. Huntington expressed in general, his satisfaction with the prop osition, and said: "This is a large un- j dertaking, and one not to be brieily disposed ot J regret that the state or my health and iny unavoidable en gagements in California make it im possible for me at present to give positive answer regarding the matter. I am satisfied that the road will be built Our chief engineer is at pres ent in New Mexico; on his return to San Francisco, which will be shortly. 1 will have him come up here ami make a preliminary survey. I want to have everything ready be fore we begin. Then, when work is begun, the hundred miles will be built quickly. More I cannot say at present I leave to-morrow, over land for California. In a few days, a week at farthest, I will make your citizens a definite proposition in writ ing, which, I may say here, will embody the principal features ot the proposition that yon have submitted lo me'' To ermver-Mifinti villi A.

The Astoria delegation returned homo yesterday morning. Mr. Huntington has signed nothing so far, and tho only thing signed dur ing the interview was the conditional proposition offered by the Astoria rep resentatives. PERSONAL MENTION. W. T.

The government steamer Cascades, Captain Whitcomb, came down early yesterday morning, towing three large barges laden with rock, and a large raft of piles, for the jetty. The British steamer Danube sailed for Victoria yesterday. This will be her last trip from the Columbia river for some lime, as she is to run between Tacoma and Victoria. The British four-masted iron ship Vanduara came in to the U. P. dock yesterday, and Brown & McCabe com menced taking ont u,6il boxes of tin and 100 tons of salt This will be completed to-day, after which the ship goes to Portland to unload the balance of her cargo and fake on a load for the return trip. The steamer Ockluhama vesterdav morning brought down a large barge carrying eight cars loaded with rails and spikes for tho Astoria and South Coast railway, and towed it over to Warren ton, where the cars will lie run ofT the barge to the track and then taken to the front, where the rails are to be laid at once. Other loads will soon follow. OF INTEREST TO FIREMEN. IjOiik String of Hose Destroy Force and Pressure. It has long been a subject of discus sion among miners aud firemen whether water forced throngh hose. either by steam or hydraulic pressure, loses force according to the length of the hose This has been set at rest forever by experiments made before Mayor Pond, ot San Francisco, the fire committee and many others. The result is astonishing. In the first test 100 feet of hose were used, which threw a stream a distance ot 200 feet, and showed a pressure of 90 iounds at the nozzle In the second test 200 feet ot hose were used, and a stream of water was thrown a distance of 174 feet at first trial, aud at the second trial after some washers had been put on the hose to stop leakage, 182 feet, and showed a pressure at the nozzle of GO pounds. Iu the third test 400 feet of hose were used, and the stream was thrown 148 feet, showing a pressure of 50 pounds at the nozzle In the fourth test GOO feet of hose were used, and the stream was thrown 100 feet with 30 pounds pressure at the noz zle In the fifth test 800 feet ot hose were used, a stream was thrown 85 feet, with ti pressure at the nozzle ot 10 pounds. In the sixth test, with 1,000 feet of hose, a stream was thrown a distance ot 51 feet, showing a pres sure of G pounds at the nozzle. This last test showed that when the hose was turned straight up, the stream would barely reach the top of the second-frame buildings in the neighborhood, and that there was scarcely any pressure at all. A seventh test was added, in which only 100 feet of hose were used, in order to prove the first test made at the same distance The result showed they were substantially alike The ' 0 regonian's " Usual Astoria. Whack at Mr. Huntington was willing to ex plain ihe result of his investigations the past three days here, excepting in relation to the Astoria project On this score he was decidedly non-com mittal. It is understood that he has taken the proposition of tho Astoria people under advisement, but has given them no definite assurance that he will build the road. The conver sation of the Astoria delegation, how ever, leaves no uoubt that they will give it out solid that the road willbo built. Their representations, however, must be received with care, as it is ex tremely doubtful, Mr. Huntington says, whether they will be able to raise the requisite subsidy. Yester day) Oregonian.

DEATH IN THE BOAT. ..(Three Meu Killed Iu Last Taesflay Melee. rruTUEit hostilities fj:.u:i:i The dead body of Jack Hayman, who was killed iu a river fight near Rainier last Tuesday morning was brought down on the J?. It. Thompson i.i 41 11. ftfhMIm I 111 kJthHTk. 1 -W t . Yesterdav coroner Surprenaut and a representative of The Mousing Astoiuax boarded the Wenona and started for the scene of the conflict The Telephone was n. onr. flivlirov'a of .-nm 'lrvrt- those nltnnnl renorted Hint when thev passed near Rainier at 10:30 the dead body was still lying on the beach about 25 feet from the waters edge. The Wenona got to where the liody ! way lying at 2:15 p. m. The siot is close lo a little sawmill, about three miles above Rainier. There are about half a dozen scows all together; a boom of logs is being built there, and several fishing lxiats are outside. The gory corpse lying in the peace ful sunshine on the sand seemed strangely out of place with the quiet surroundings. A Columbia county justice of the place, from Rainier precinct, acting as coroner, was just beginning to hold an inquest ou tho body of the man whose name w;is Nichohis Andrew, a Greek. A jury had been impaneled, and two witnesses were being examined. They testified that they were the men who did the shooting. Their names are ,Tno. Williams aud August Linstrom. Linstrom was quite voluble; de scribed all about just how the attack was made and how he aud Williams blazed away. "You betcher life," said Linstrom, "we fixed 'em, aud it any more had come we'd have made it hot for 'em." "How many did you kill?" asked the reporter. "Oh, I don't know; thrco or four," was the .answer. At 3:15 the iuquest was not con cluded, but it appeared as though the verdict ot tho jury would be that the man was killed by Williams and Lin strom in self-defence. The Wenona returned with An drews body at nine o'clock last night. The funeral of Hayman, Stevens aud Andrews will lie to-morrow. Nicholas John, the other wouuded man, was seen yesterday at St. Mary's hospital. He says that he was iu a boat with four other men, and near them were two more of their boats, .all three con taining members of the union who had gone up the river to try and in duce all the men they might find fish ing, to combine with them, and to re frain from fishing unless thev could get 1.25. Near Danby, below Rainier, Tuesday morning about 11 o'clock, they found some men fishing and held a conver sation with them, trying to induce them to sell no fish "less than 1.25 apiece. The men seemed rather re luctant and finally said, "Go to those men in that scow, and see if they will agree to this," at the same lime point ing to a scow near bv. The three boats then starlet for the scow, nut just before they reached it, rifles and shot guns were pointed out of the windows and a volley was fired at them. At the same time shots were also fired at them from a building on the bank not far distant John was hit with five buckshot, one in the left vxist, three in the right arm, aud one just over the right eye. One man in another boat was killed instantly, and in the third boat three men werei wounded. The lxiats then retreated. It was rumored yesterday that sev eral more boats had gone up the river with aimed men, and further conflict is feared. There have been many serious dis turbances at the beginning of and dur ing several years, but this is the first time that bloodshed and death has re sulted from hostile collision between two determined forces.
