I' IflK DALLY ASTORIAN. ASTOEIA. FJiiDAY 3IORMNU, JULY J. 1894. --TV? ASTORIA ONCE MORE. For the Second Time This Season Bhe Boats a Portland Team. On Wednesday Portland sent down to tlila city a football team, better than any other that has ever "been got to Bother In the metropolis:, with the In' tentlon of avenging the defeat sustained here on Decoration, Day. The boys In red and white, however, returned home yesterday conauered once more, and this time In even a more decisive mail ner than on the previous occasion. Cut they had no cause to be ashamed of themselves. At many stages of the game they compelled the admiration of the most, prejudiced on-lookers by their excellent defense, and throughout played a stubborn, up-hill fight In very manly and sportsmanlike way. The game was the prettiest and best ever played In Oregon, and although the score four goals to nil might Indicate a, tame contest, none of great crowd that witnessed the fight came home with any other Impression than that at no stage of the game had Astoria an easy task. Certainly toward the end the Astoria Football Club ' men held the whip hand owing to their superior staying powers, but up to the lost ten minutes the excitement was at fever heat, and the spectators had ail the fun they wanted. The ground was dead and sllirpery, and It did not take long for the new ball to Increase very ma terlally In weight. Neither did It take long for Wilson, of Astoria, and High am, of Portland, to cake themselves In thick folds of Clatsop mud, an example speedily followed by nearly every other player on the field. When Umpire McKlnley blew , the whlstlo fr the kick off there were fully twelve hundred spectators In the ground and on the surrounding hills. The grand stand and all avalluble benches were as UHiml crowded with ladles, while aU around the lines enthusiastic horn tooters, from the big Fort Canby artll lory man who had come to see "Mlllsy1 "do 'em up brown," to the screaming, howling Juvenile member of the Astoria .Football Club, with oceans of blue and white . favors fluttering all over him were conjregated to enjoy the tussle and yell their lungs hoarse at every good play. Portland made her customary break ' away by piling In a vigorous rush or Astoria's bucks, but this stylo of game didn't help the visitors any for two reasons. In the first place,, the bluer were ready for it, and secondly, the force of the ruBh was badly broken by the good battery work of Astoria's lialves, who succeeded In very effectual ly scattering the strength that might otherwise have come square on the full backs. From this on, the game got warm, and the boll traveled at a fast pace to both wings, keeping well In the center of the field. The llrut. goal was kicked by Astoria -5 minutes after th beginning of play, and wus the result of a careful combination from Bart hoi omew to Dell, Bell to Wilson, and Wit son to goal with a cleun, hot shot that the goal-keeper could not humlle. Ten minutes after, Glbaon Becured the sec ond scoro for ABtorla through a peculiar series of circumstances. He put the hall Into goal with a well directed kick. Rlckard, tho Portland full back, rushed It, slipped, and missed altogether, and the goal keeper, Instead of picking It up, as he should have done under th( circumstances, tried to kick It, goti rat tled, and let It slowly roll In between the sticks amid the shouts and cheers of a thousand overjoyed onlookers. The score was unchanged up to half time. In the second half two more goals wero kicked by Astoria, ond Portlanr failed to" Bcore. Astoria's third notch was tho result of the prettiest piece of play that has been seen on the grounds for a long whllo. Grant got hold of the ball from Wilson, and passed It over to Dlmlck, who raced through Latta and gave It to Marsh. Marsh, "un rattloable," as they are lieglnnlng to call him, was In the middle of a hostile crowd of red and white shirts, but as usuul, got out of the tangle somehow, and passed the bull well over to Poll, on the extreme wing, putting It right between his fecti Hell ran It up on his own line, and then centered It clean Into glial. Wilson was on hand, and almost before the sphere hod landed on the ground put It through the piwts. Then he turned around, scratched his head, and asked McKlnley how he had his lxirrlilge cooked before he left Auld Reekie, Astoria's fourth nnd last goal was the result of a side kick by Illggtns . from the extreme left. Mills was there when It dropped, and got suddenly taken with a violent desire to shake hands with Portland's goal-keeper. When he got through shaking hands, the ball , was clean through betwtn the posts. Then Mills started In to shake hands with himself. Where all worked with such Judgment It Is Impossible to particularise. Cap tain Tallant and George Smith p'.ayed their usually excellent defense. Mc Klnley, the umpire, was congratulated by both teams at the end of the game, and gave his decisions throughout In an unbiassed end sportsmanlike manner. Tom Spencer was there throwing bou quets at himself ard everybody else that nune within reach, In genuine delight at the splendid victory. The Portland backs, notably Latta, and Rlckard, played a most excellent game, and Cam- lilack, and Trego, all WITHTJIE FJSII (Continued from First Pcgo.) few and far between. The ca;.ta!n of the Dalles City asked one of the oper ators yesterday morning to let hlrn take a cast, with the net, and on permission being given,' he threw the pole and hauled in a magnificent thirty-rour pound fish. Four of us had to help him land It. His was the largest salm on that has been caught on tho Upper Columbia this year. Hulf a mile further up, where the river races In a hundred whirlpools round every object In Its course, is J. A. Hamilton's "No. 1 stationary wheel. This Is the best wheel now working! in the vicinity, and Its catch records of the past week surpass anything ever before known in the his tory of the salmon Industry. Its daily average take for the last seven days has been twenty-seven tons, and yes terday1 It got In forty-six tons of blue backs and then was compelled to shut down simply from Inability to handle any more fish. It Is one of the sights of tho locality, indeed a sight almost as Interesting as the lock work Itself, to watch this wheel, without the aid of man or machinery, simply, as it seems when you are looking at Its of Its own volition, turning its scoops In a steady series of revolutions, and as every drip ping not comes up from the rushing river below, bringing in its bosom seven or eight kicking, Jumping fish that in a moment are thrown on tip of a strug gling mass of their own kin, and In the next moment lie themselves buried un der another batch of squirming, fright ened salmon. At each turn this grim, silent workman brings more grist to his mill. Its owner can He calmly In his little hut at the further end of the crib and know that as long as the rlVer runs his faithful henchman outside will keep at his task, never flagging or shirk ing. No knocking on for a smoker not even a spell for breakfast or dinner, but only staying Its monotonous whirl when he gets up lazily from his bunk and pulls it out of the water, because the crib wont hold any more fish. An Ideal servant, Indeed! W. Ji "Hamilton, the brother of the owner of this contrivance, and himself largely Interested In Beveral other wheels, told me that allowing a fair in crease over last year In the run of by saved and will run as soon as they can te put In order, Loss; 13,600. Seufert Bros, are very heavy losers In deed, and the full story of the destruc tion wrought among their property is too long to detail here. Mr. Geo. Seufert, head of the firm, was very glad to put :ne in possession of all the information he could give. He told me that they owned ten stationary whels, the build ing of Which had cost them 148,000. Of these six are a total loss, having been swept away without leaving a mark to show where they had stood. Of the four that are left only one Is running, and that Is In bad order. The other three are istill too deep In the water to run, but will be put In operation In about three weeks. In answer to my questions, Mr. Seufert sold: "There are more fish In the river than I have ever seen in my life. We have forty-five dip nets going and their average dally catch for the last ten days has been fourteen tons. All of It consists of bluebacks, and this is the second run of that va riety, with prospects of a third run next week an occurrence before unheard of. Our stationary wheel is the only one now running In this vicinity, and there are four scow wheels that are turning! on nun iime. rnese latter catch a large number of fish on account of the muddy, stirred up state of the water, but as soon "as the current lessens a little and the river clears they will not take 400 pounds dally. The dip net cilch will' also be largely affcected when the river get! clearer. After the 10th of July, when the blueback run has gone, our up-river pack is practically over, and I don't believe that the total num ber of cases put up for the season will come to half that of last year. Ever- ding & Farrell will be in good luck If they pack 14,000 caees. Last year at the Cascades Warren packed 38,000 cases of fish, and McGowan 21,000. Warren will do well If he gets 18.0Q0 this year. He has only been running since Inst Monday. McGowan will put up about 14,000, He has hod a better chance to run than Warren, as the latter's can nery has been all but under water. The fish themselves are far more plentiful ' PROFESSIONAL CARDS. mi0 H. A. SMITH DENTIST. Rooms 1 and 2. Pythian Building, over C. H. Cooper's store. W. C. LOGAN, D. D. S.. DENTAL. PARLORS.

HAHDWAHE had all Its wheels In good running or salmon, and a fair ratio of lo.-fs the destruction of gear, he would place the total up-river pack at Just ono-half of what It wus laHt season and added that this decrease would be solely caused by the great shortage of wheels. He agrees wllh must of the others that I Interviewed In saying that had there been no loss of apparatus the up-river pack this year would -have been the largest over known. The losses of the Hnmlltons total (27,000. Between the Cascade locks ore The Dalles for the whole fifty mile stretch there Is no fishing gear worth noticing but in the region of The Dalles itself there Is a regular army of wheels, and the Industry Is here seen at probably its busiest point. The principal owners are Everdlng & Farrell, Wlnans Bros, W. Cram, and Seufert Bros., all well known names In tho cannery world, When I approached Mr. Farrell he was glad that a newspaper had taken suffi lent Interest In the welfare of the In dustry to determine to secure a full statement of the results the flood had had on It, and did not hesitate to glv me everything at his disposal. He said 'Wo had six fine stationary wheels on the Washington side Just above Th Dalles, and all of them are completely knocked out. Until the flood came there were no fish, and as soon as It did come all our gear was taken clear away. Ou loss Includes two new wheels Just erect ed thU season, and you can put the figures down at i!5,000 roughly, though guess they will exceed that before we get through. Before we can recover .ouiwlve our pack wilt be fully half short, and I Buppose that this will be about the proportion on the whole upper river. Our dip nets have been so far useless, simply because the river Is still over the tops of the Btunds. Our pack last season was 25,000 cases, nnd until a week ago we had not a case of salmon put up." Everdlng & Fnrrell's cannery has a very large cnixiclty. and already several offers have been re ceived to supply them with fish, but Mr. Farrell told me, "It's too early yet for us to say what we are going to do. I can't let you know any more than the man In tho moon. Every effort possible was of course made to save our wheels. and we had big ganss of men working night and day trying to strengthen their foundations, but In the middle of It a big tree "or part of a bridge would sweep flown and hurl the whole thing thing away like chaff all over the rtvtr Why, enormous stones in the crib work of some of our wheels were Just taken and slung around like pieces of torn paper. You can have no Idea of the force of the current when the river was st Us worsU This that you see now is far worse than I ever experienced before, but what It was two weeks ago Is IndlserlhaWe." Wlnans Bros, were a month ago the owners of six expensive stationary wheels and one scow wheel. Now they mnning, AU tnelr stntionarles are In splinters scattered between The Dalles and the ocean, and their scow l hung up In a tree on a farm some where in Wasco county.
