Ex-mayor Cony has received a letter from secre tary Blaine, in whiclx be says: "You are in error in supposing that I am opposed to sugar being admitted free of duty. My objection was not to free sugar, "but to the proposed method of making it free. If in the pending tariff bill sugar is placed upon the free list we give to certain countries a free market for 893,000,000 worth of their products, while they are not asked to open their market to the free admission of a single dollar of American products. "We ought to have in exchange for the privilege of free sugar, from foreign countries, a free market for breadstufls and provisions, besides the products from various parts of our country; in short, we ought to secure in return for free sugar, a market for 5lb,uuu,uuu worth of our own products. It will not jequire reciprocity treaties to pro vide this. The tariff bill can contain all the necessary conditions. Legis lative power is able to secure tho de sired end. Within the last twenty years we have given countries south of us free admission for nearly $60, 000,000 worth of their products with out receiving a penny's worth of ad vantage in exchange. -If sngar be now made free we shall have given to the Latin-American countries free ad mission for $130,000,000 worth of their products. It is time, I think to look out for some reciprocal advantages. AVe are a very rich nation but not rich enough to trade on this unequal basis. PEDDLING POISON.

The Com- mei'rial Jsulieuii tries to raise an alarm concering the silver bill by sug gesting editorially that it is doubtful whether silver will rise under the leg islation proposed. It says: "The com pulsory purchase of a fixed amount or value of silver each month by the treasury is in the highest degree, cal culated to depress the price, because the treasury is under obligation to buy where it can buy cheapest., and the world's supply can only be ex hausted when all the surplus silver in the civilized world has been absorbed."

SN?$i!mW RAILROAD HATTERS, Interesting Points in Reference to tiie Situation. WHAT WM. REID HAS TO SAY. Tire Astorian jesterday morning contained the only true account of the inspection trip of William Reid and W. H. Whipple over the projected and completed portions of the Astoria and South Coast railway, published with the usual regard to correctness, which characterizes this journal. There are other matters in connec tion with the railroad situation which have never yet been published, and were obtaiued from Mr. Reid on Mon day night, showing the inner work ings, and consequently throwing con siderable light upon the situation, accounting in a measure for the delay which has characterized the movement and which even now appears to be a temporary bar to present progress. Mr. Keid's statement was substan tially as follews: When Huntington was meeting the Astoria delegation in Portland on the 30th of April he had an idea he could get a subsidy of $300,000, and was intending to demand that amount He was informed by Beid that $150,000 was as much as could be obtained, but positively refnsed to think of any proposition based on that small amount, and reluctautly agreed to demand only $200,000. When he found that amount had been raised in tweuty-fonr hours, he was evidently vexed that he had not set higher figures, and it is very likely now that he hopes by delay, that at least $150,000 more will be raised as an inducement for him to nnsh the work. Astoria needs a railroad, and must have it soon, and it begins to look as if the surest way to reap the best ad vantages is to try and secure the con struction of an independent line. Said Mr. Reid: "I think the bonds can be floated at from 85 to 90 cents on the dollar, and I believe this syn dicate which Mr. Whipple represents wdl take them. If they do, 1 shall push the road ahead as rapidly as possible. I don't think Huntington will mako any move at present: for he even wants me to hold back, so that he can have your people raise another sum, of $150,000 or $175,000 more. "If you have an independent line to Portland, yon then connect with the Southern, the Northern and the Union Pacific, and that would be far better thau to be dependent upon one com pany only, a3 yon would bo if Hunt ington built the lino for the Southern Pacific. "Only a short time age a prominent Portland man said to me: "'Reid, what makes you work so for that Astoria railroad? Don't you know that you, as a Portland onan, should not do it, for as soon as that is built we loso the grain trade of the Willamette valley aud it will go to As toria?' "I told him 1 thought it would take one quarter of the grain trade away irom iroriiauu, out ouierwise it wouiu help Portland, but he replied: " It would take it all away, for nine tentlis of the grain would go to As toria for shipment by foreign vessels and the other one-tenth would be ground into flour and sent to Port land people to eat.' " "Now why do you Astoria people confine yonr offer to one line? Why not hold up that $200,000 subsidy and say Uiat it is for the first railroad which will bnild here. You see Hunt ington has a claim now aud is in no hurry, for he wants jou to offer him mora" Said the reporter "Do you think that the recent action of Yanderbilt in getting a through line across the continent and coming in over these three roads to this coast will tend to unite them, and prevent competition between them?" Mr. Reid replied: "Certainly I do, and that is just why they nave all been holding back, for that deal has long been pending, and that is the very reason why tho TJ. P. and the S. P.- are neither of them in a hurry to come here. But if you can get an in dependent line, then they will all be glad to get in here, and Astoria will grow with wonderful rapidity. "Let mo tell you a fact which many people do not know. Whenlwa3in New York I sent a oircular letter to every shipping firm which had ever had a vessel bring a cargo to or from the Columbia river, asking them if they would freight to or from Astoria one dollar per ton cheaper than to or from Portland, and every one said, they would if there was a railroad at Astoria so they could connect with it Now you see no railroad company is very anxious to come to Astoria, for they now handle the grain at Portland, but just as soon as you have a rail road there, leading to the Willamette valley then theTJ. P., S. P. and North ern will quickly bnild there. So you see it is for Astoria to make a strong effort to build a line. Whether they help me or not, I shall complete this road, and then they will always have kindly feelings for me. I have started to build the road, have invested- my money in it, and I am bound to succeed." Kindred Park.

HOWELL & r -J ir - 1 -ir The Astobiax most cordially hopes Mr. Keid will be successful in his un dertaking, and he certainly is posted in railroad matters, and is possessed of indomitable pluck and energy, es sential requisites for carrying out his intentions. Time will show how cor rect are his surmises and if his opin ions are sound. PORTLAND NEWS NOTES. San Francisco Business Meu Guard ing Against Fire. $100,000 JEOJt VltOTECTIOS. Special l7 Tho California AssocuTrn l'ncss. Pobtiaxd, June 17. Last Saturday Theodore Yinnegerholz, a man promi nent in the social and business circles of Albina was reported missTng under peculiar circumstances, andjesterday all property standing in his name was attached. It is alleged that the ab sconder had been a resident of Albina and was connected with some of the best families there; that he was not known in the light of a fast man, but some of the acts imputed to him are of such a nature as men of the world, indulge in. He has left a large num ber of wood choppers in his employ in the lurch and the constable of Albina also says that he has forged notes ag gregating a large sum. Me is further more accused of having raised consid erable money on bonded timber and other laud. His wife declares that she is entirely ignorant as to the canso which led him astray. PRECAUTIONARY' MEASI'RES. Takes lt San Franciico Against Fire. Special to Tiik Astoria' 1 Sax Francisco, June 17. A meet ing of citizens held in accordance with a call made by the presidents of the chamber of commerce, produce ex change, mechanics' institute, manu facturers' association and board of trade. The purpose of the meeting as stated in the Call was to consider the question of providing a sufficient and proper fire apparatus and hose and fully paid fire department to enable the city to cope with a conflagration and to agree upon some practical method of securing at least immediate partial relief from the danger from fire which is generally conceded to be impend ing. After con siderable discussion the followiug res olution was adepted: ' Resolved, That the chamber of com merce, produco exchange, manufact urers' association and board of trade be requested to appoint a committee of ten from their respective bodies, who shall jointly act as a committee for the purpose of soliciting guarantees which shall aggregate a sum not to exceed $100,000 which sum shall be placed at the disposal of the depart ment to be expended by the depart ment acting with a committee of five citizens to be composed of one mem ber from each of the commercial bodies aliove mentioned.

The Oregon Pioneers met here to-day in their eighteenth annual session. There were three hundred founders of the state present. There was no base ball game to-day, on account of rain. Remembers the Firemen. John Kinney, James Kinney, Lars Hansen, Tom Bawling Nace Grant and C. J. Curtis, the bravest of the brave of Astoria's fire boys! In recognition of their bravery, standing in the face of the dense vol umes of smoke and seething flame, holding the nozzle and never flinching, Herman Wise asks these bravo men to call at his place of business and get a $5 hat each as a small token of his esteem. Light The Bell Tower. The attention of the chief engineer of the Astoria fire department, or the proper person in authority, is called to the fact that the bell tower is without a light, and that any person obliged to give a fire alarm must grope aronnd in the dark with great difficulty, be fore he can find the bell rope. This is a little matter but should be at tended to at once. There is some betting on the out come of the Riordan-Fraker contest to-night Riordan is the favorite. though a few knowing ones say that if it is straight, the result may be as much of a surprise as the Sullivan- Scotty battle. GOODELL P Astoria, Or. -C A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. Narrow Escape Froi an Extensive Conflagration. G001 WORK HY THE JPIREMES. At twenty minutes before twelve o'clock last night two or three strokes of the fire Ijell were sounded, and a hasty ruu up Third street showed that one of the buildings on the south side of the street, between Olney and West Ninth, was on fire. No flames could be seen, but huge volumes of dense, black smoke were pouring out of the front of the build ing, showing that the interior was all ou fire, which soon burst out over the street, and indicated that it was well under way and would be hard to ex tinguish. The fire department responded promptly, but as Third street was torn up, No. 2 had to drive aronnd on Fourth street and down on West Ninth to Third. Owing to the penur ionsness of the city, in having no horses for No. 1, and the fact that but a shght alarm wa3 given at hrst,it was several minnte3 beforo she arrived, and took position at the foot of Olney street. Seven minutes from the time the alarm was given, No. 2 had a stream on, and. iNo. J was ueiajetl several minutes in consequence of the suction pipe being out of order. A strong wind was blowing from the southeast and at one time it looked as if the two new blocks oppo site were doomed. Only for the rain of the past two days, they would probably have ignited. The fire bnrned fiercely and linug on with wonderful tenacity, considering the fact that the rain was pouring down and both steamers were playing on the flames. It was impossible to save the build ing, which was almost entirely con sumed, but the boys by hard work prevented the other bnildings from being destroyed. It was a one story frame building, worth about $2,600, owned by J. H. Mansell and insured for $1,500. The occupants were McGowan Bros. & Tuttle, real estate, loss $500, covered by insurance; Warren & Wright, real estate, loss about $350, no insurance: Morgan Sc Co. boots and shoes, loss nearly Si,000, insurance very light. Will Warren had two bicycles dam aged and lost some of his clothing. Ed. Wright, assessor, saved the city assessment rolls, damaged somewhat The origin of the fire i3 a mystery, but is believed to be the work of an incendiary, as whistles or signals, were heard just before the lire was dis covered in rear of the shoo store, and two men were seon hastening away. The firemen all did well, and some of them stood in the street almost suffocated with smoke and nearly scorched by the flames, holding the nozzle, waiting for the water to come through the hose. Herman Wise also saw them, and will give a five-dollar hat to each one. SOME SALMON STATEMENTS. Remarks Liable and Reliable Ftom San Francico. Somebody in Astoria has written a letter to an eastern journal advising buyers of salmon in tho New York market to wait until the first of August "when they can buy all tho Columbia river salmon they want at $1.20 if not less." Whoever tho writer, he might have put in a saving "perhaps" somewhere in his advice to the eastern "dealer. He is right when he says that along. abont August 1st, the canuers must have money, but there is nothing new in that. When the season is over and the pack is made the canners always want money, but they seldom need it as bad as the bear correspondent would have the eastern dealers believe. The salmon market takes queer freaks. It is just possible that the present season ha3 a big surprise in store for all the trade. Everybody seems to bo against sal mon. Not one man m ten has any faith in fish and the situation is just right for lively speculative trading and a big surprise all around. Salmon packers and large dealers begin to talk in a hopeful strain of an active market. Coming events cast their shadows before them. The sal mon packing industry sees a largo- sized shadow covering the speculative traders and the hosts of timid opera tors who have been waiting for rock bottom prices. Day after day the wires have been hot with advices from the cast to the effect that "we could place carloads of salmon at per dozen." There has generally beeu no limit on the carloads, but choice packs always have been asked for, and the prices faxed have ranged all the way from $1 to 80 cents. Tne canners nave answered as a rule: "Could you now, well so could we, but Wb won't do it." There have been more fishing by eastern dealers and operators than ever before, but the canners of theFacihc coast are not playing buyers and sellers both I this season. Operators and dealers J must name prices. They seem to think that they will get salmon at S are the best I-: C M, J i their own prices, but the packers claim the upper hands and the situa tion is certainly shaping in their favor. A great deal depends on the result on the Columbia river. Should the pack be as light there as is anticipated, prices will be advanced far beyond the ideas of the conservatives who now are waiting for a market at unusually low prices. Alaska brands, which already have become quite popular, will be in big demand, and it would not be sur prising it at the end, tne pack of 1890 is moved rapidly and easily at remunerative prices. There area number of. well posted packers who say that the Columbia river will not pack to exceed 100,000 cases this season. "We havo advices that the canneries on the lower Columbia are closed on account of the high prices demanded for fish, and that up the river canneries will follow suit, a3 the season i3 regarded as predestined to result in disappointment. All the latest information from the river tends to confirm the gloomy anticipations of the packers. Should the half prove true a booming speculative market will be established. There is very little trading at present but packing ideas generally are about $1.35 on the river for Co lumbia brands, $1.10 for Alaska and S1.10 for spring Sacramento. The shipments of salmon from this port by sea during last month were 13,486 cases, valued at $73,042. The total shipments for the past five months have been 119,783 cases of the value or S658,950. The .hJamath Packing and trading Company have bought out the inter ests of JJomhoff & Co. at Requa on the Klamath river. "R.D. Hume &Co. of 405 Front street are the agents for the Klamath Packing Company. San Francisco Herald of Trade and 01 ocer ana uanner, 13. Base Bill Mectin;:.

Correspondence Solicited. HOWELL & s itfrtr TO GOD AND BLAIME An American Citizen III Qiei TT TlemffisLMj. OVER A. TEAM XX A. KUSSIAXJAH. "I owe my deliverance, 'first to Almighty God, and second to Jamm G.Blaine, our invincible secretary of state." This statement was made by EL Kempinsky, a Russian American citi zen, who arrived in New York a fair days ago on the steamer Augusta from Hamburg, after having spent thirteen months in a Russian jafl. Continuing his story Mr. Kempinaky said: "I was born in Konin, Russian Po land, thirty-seven years ago. Wham 17 years of age I came to tma country without getting a passport or serving my time in the Russian army. I west to Bridgeport, Conn., where I opened ageneral business and made money. I married and have two children. Two years ago I thought I would return to my native land to see my parent. -l arrived there, saw them and waa happy. I made up my mind to come home, and, just before starting, waa inning wiui a inena, wnen x was ap proached by a policeman, who took ma to the prison at Kalisch, of which a man by the name of Dobnziski waa governor. This was on December 34. 1888. "Immediately on my imprisonaMBit my wife went to St Petersburg aad petitioned for my release. The csar would do nothing. Her next visit was to the American consul Wurta: He was very polite, and said: I will get your husband out in three weeks,' but nothing was heard from him. "During this time I had been getting: very bad food in the jafl. I waa put in a little 5x12 dungeon, under ground, and served with the rankest food. My wife asked if she could not send me my meals, and was told -yea ; if she would -consult' tiie official. She then commenced to pay $50 pec. month for the privilege of sending, food to me. Whenever she came to see me she had to put up $25, and, for the sake of sending me a bed, was- -charged $25. "A friend of mine named Schwartz was just about coming to this country, . and he volunteered to lay the mattac before secretary Bayard. A great deal of correspondence resulted, withoat any result for me. Schwartz retailed to St. Petersburg, and a few monfiba ago came back to this country. Ha then laid the matter before JamaaG. Blaine, who immediately telegraphed to consul Wurtz that, as I waa aa American citizen, I must be released at once or that Wurtz must ask his passport and leave the country. "As soon as the telegram waa laid before the czar he ordered the pro curator of the prison to release mm. The procurator came to the jail at 8 o'clock on the morning of January 24, 1890, and asked one of the guards to, show me in. I was addressed aa Mr. Kempinsky, treated very courteously and told I was liberated. They sent a man with me to show me the way to town. When I arrived there there was great rejoicing, and I thought I would be killed with the ex citement. I am now going to try and recoverthe $10,000 which it cost xaa while I was kept there. For that par pose I will pay a visit to' secretary Blaine in person." Carnahan & Go. SUCCESSORS TO I. "W.
