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

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

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

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.
