"One more obstacle to the success
of our electrio railway has been swept
away," said Mr. Sharpstein, the pro
prietor of the enterprise last night
"I have just received a dispatch
from Mr. Belding, who accompanied
Mr. Shurtz to interview the manager
of the financial and engineering por
tion of the road, and he wires me the
proposition of climbing the hill with a
cable is approved. There is nothing
now in tho way of success but a gen
erous franchise and a few thousands of
subsidy which is growing less day by
day. Monday we will try and sign up
the balance of subsidy, and if the peo
ple are as prompt and liberal as tho
magnitude of our project warrants,
wo will go before the council Tuesday
night
While we have been endorsed by
the Chamber of Commerce and many
prominent and careful businessmen,
there are a few persons who claim
they will not exchange considerations
with ua because they do not think wo
mean business.
uTo sweep this argument from under
the doubters 1 am authorized by tho
company to place SoOO in tho hands
of any subscriber to be paid to a pub
lic library of the city if wo do not
build the line if the subsidy is raised
and tho franchise is granted."
"Will you have trouble in getting
the balance of tho subsidy."
"We expect none. The electric road
would build this city in a wonderful
degree, not only by furnishing homes
cheaply to the people but by impress
ing strangers. Other cities'have wel
comed enterprises of this sort with
liberal endowments and found no
cause to regret it and with Astoria's
sightly residence ground scarcely
occupied, it is inconcoivablo that
thoro will bo neglect of the opportu
nity here."
"We wore greatly encouraged to
day by ono citizen of Astoria and an
other from Knappa dropping in and
tendering subscriptions. Now if this
public spirit should become epidemic
wo would have men grading in ten
days and the road built, equipped and
operating in four months, but if delay
is made wet weather will causo us to
abandon tho enterprise altogether, as
wo would bo unable to complete the
road in tho timo allotted ub in our
contracts.
"Not only do wo expect to build this
road, but wo calculate to put in pleas
ure trrounds. a larco nnblin lintlnnc
establishment, fitted up after tho style
ot tuo Aimeda baths, and do much to
encourage tne people in pursuing
pleasure to patronize us."

have sold his interest to A. 0. Fisher,
brother of tho surviving partner, who
takes an equal interest in tho firm of
Fisher Bro3. Captain Fisher has
been long and favorably known to the
Astoria public and his association
with this old established business will

Park, going by way of tho steamer
Electric and a barge towed by the
steamer to Young's Bay, there con
necting at the incline with cars of the,
Astoria & South Coast railroad.
The clam bake was a veritable
feast, enjoyed heartily by all the ex
cursionists, and those who returned
last night seemed to have no appetite
for anything to eat here, so thoy must
havo been well filled with clams In
addition to those who went from here,
a large number of persons came np
there from Seaside and vicinity.
It is reported that Capt Will
Whitcomb and D. C. Ireland can each
tell from actual experience how it
feels to eat two hundred clams and
how much of a weight it is to carry
around that number in their respect
ive stomachs.
M. J. Kinney, Dr. Alfred Kinney
and Manager Crawford were very at
tentive to their guests, and toek: pleas
ure in showing the beautiful grounds
and as a result sold a number of lots.
The party were taken on the cars
down to Seaside, but D. C. Ireland,
M. Foard, P. Stokes and Capt. Phfl.
Johnson were in a rear car, and fail
ing to heed tho notice of tho con
ductor were left behind, but came on
in wagons.
Among those who were present at
tho clam bake wero tho follewing:
J. W. Conn and wife, Dr. O. B. Estes,

The Astoria & South Coast Railroad
Co. through its secretary ,E. C. Holden,
has filed answer to the garnishment
on 2,000 shares of tho company stook
in the suit of W. H. Bain against the
Pacific Construction company, "men
tion of which was mado yesterday.
Tho story of tho ownership of tho
stock given in Mr. Holden's answer is
that tho Construction company sub
scribed for tho 2,000 shares, and pur
suant to a contract between the
Astoria & South Coast Co., and the
latter assigned tho shares to D. K.
Warren, as trustee, to bo held until
tho Construction company should
earn this by building certain rail
road, which has not yet been done.
Afterwards with consent of tho Con
struction company 1,600 Bhares of the
stock wero transferred to I. W. Case
as trustee, and now stand in his name,
the remaining 400 shares are, how

as trustee.
Further Mr. Holden sets forth that
the stock is subject to a prior garnish
ment serred by J. A. Fulton in an ac
tion to recover 8900 from the Con
struction company.

DETAILED SCORE 11Y ISXIXGS.
Yesterday the Astoria base ball club
played the first of a series of two
games of base ball with the Aberdeen
club in that city. They met with
defeat as will bo seen by the following
despatch from The Astohiak's special
correspondent who accdmpauied the
nine.
Aberdeen-, Wash., Sept 13.
Tuttle's trotters lost to-day's game of
ball by a score of 9 to 12. Their de
feat was due to bad breaks made in the
first three innings. After that the
Astoria boys settled down to busi
ness, but failed to recover the lo3t
ground. The game was called at 230
p. xr. The visitors won the toss and
sent the Aberdeens to the bat The
following is a summary of tho runs.
Aberdeen's Kohler scored ono run
in the first inning; M. Trask, one each
in the first, second and ninth Bowers,
uuu ju ixju ure i j oiarr, one eacn in
firsthand third; Sherwood, one each
in fifth and eighth; Antrim, ono each
in tho second and third and B. Trask,
one in tho third.
Astorian's Pete Grant, ono run
each in fifth and seventh inuinc:
Kelly, one in sixth; Tom Bawlins,
one each in tho fourth and sixth;
Buchter, ono in sixth; Naco Grant,
one in third; Hardo3ty, one each in
third and ninth. Naco Grant stole
two bases in the fifth and Tntllo did
the same in the seventh inning. Pete
Grant mado a two-base hit and Har
desty and Buchter wero each credited
with three baggers.
Crosby was umpire aud the time of
tho game was two hours and a
quarter.
Tuttle gavo out in the sixth inning
but Tom Bawlins caught on after
that, while Kelly was still sea-sick.
Tho gamo to-morrow will be for a
850 purse. After to-morrow gamo
there will bo a foot race between
Naco Grant and Maley of Aberdeen,

The Associated Press has given in
structions to its telegraph operators
to learn tho manipulation of the typo
writer, as it is found that this instru
ment materially increases the speed
of receiving messages. Tho Asso
ciated Press of the stato of Now York
led off in tliis new enterprise. Some
time ago its managers purchased type
writing machines, and the telegraph
operators havo been drilling upon
them ever since, until now they arc
proficient in their use. The new sys
tem went fnlly into operation Mon
day, Sept. 1. Tho typawriting ma
chine adopted by the State Associated
Press is tho Smith Premier typewriter,
manufactured at Syracuse. Compari
son and test have shown this instru
ment to be the best" in the market.
It is n greatly improved machine,
and has points of superiority that
commend it for neat, quick and artis
tic work. By its employment tho ex
pert telegraph operator and type
writer is able to receive and record,
with moro ease and legibility, a larger
