Astoria, Or., 10 p. m., 31slt May, 1895: The
past week has shown a gradual looe.n-
ing up of stocks held at ithls end and all
tine oanmerymen report shipments as con
siderably more free than at any tigie
since the beginning of the season. For
ward movements will, during the next
ten days, continue to become more brisk
and a't the end of tfo.it time will resume
their norma size. The dullness caused
by the discount war is fast dlsapnearltiK
and the taitement of prominent cannera
shows bhat those who have held out
against 'the Vft per cent terms have finally
been approached by jobbers Juet as eager
to buy unci.r the old conditions. Fully
65 carloads, about 26,000 oaeies of salmon,
nave already sone forward since the
10th of May from tlhls nolnt. Our corre
spondents in the large centers report
various conditions of tlie market, but all
unite In stating that d.mandj are dally
growing, and will rapldiy assume larger
proportions with the approach of warm
weather and the consuming season. New
York reports sales easily made at good
figures and a demand equal to. If not
grittier tnun, that of last year to date.
Chicago Is quiet, considerably more so
than many other centers. In St. Paul.
Columbia River is firm with a good de
mand. The only futures sought for in
Omaha are In Columbia River salmon,
and good prices prevail. Eastern Canu-
d:an citfcfl are buying largely. In. Lon
don the steady advance in nrlc-s of all
grades has been maintained and the mar
ket was never In better condition. High
er clues goods ar-i largely sou ht for and
ovals are quoted by our correspondents
ait $2.08, less 6 per cent. We quote as
follows: Columbia River Stindard brands
straight Chlnooks, $1.35 to $1.;0 for talis,
and I1.G214 lo $1-5714 for flats. Ovals for
home consumption Will keen up their
hlph flfrure sit from $t.J'to $1.9G. leaning
a HWle toward the higher figure. Keys
range same as previous reports. Foreign
buyers have not yet completed 'their op
erations in this olty and seem determined
to secure as much of the output as pos
sible. Within the next two weks there
Is r.o doubt that the transportation com
panies will be taxed to their full limns
In taking care of forward shipments.
Operations on the Columbia for the pist
seven days have been light, and there
has been no repetition of lait week's
run, a condition brought abotrt mainly
by the severe storms that have been suc
ceeding one aiwuther at the mourh of the
river. The middle river c .merle a have
also been running very slowy and nt
the Cascades, beyond a few thousand
cases . packed from the eaten of drift
nets and seines, matters are Inactive.
Several fish wheele have not yet been
toufhed by the water. We estimate the
pack of the whole river to diite at 129,00t
casea, which seems, from all the resources
at our command, to be a c!oss fl ure.
This leaves the pack to daite almost even
with last year. The lower river pack ts
absut 25 per cemt ahead of 189i. The catch
of fhh from this time laeit ytur" to the
close of that season was large, both on
the lower and upper rlv.rs. This vear
on the lower river there is no reason to
expect any better than laflt year's re
sults, even If they are as good, but It In
certain that on the upper river th re will
be a comslmible falling off. The own.
tlons of 1894 at the Oaseadee and The
uaiies were alrmoM phenomenal, but the
low waiter and other conditions at tht
time are such that their catch will ntMm.
lly decrease from now till the season is
over. This being the nine lit feems ee.
rain mat me total pack for 1895 will fnn
oiii-i b vi iiiwi ui iaai oy ririiy nnty or
sixty MioiiMUMj cases. The run of blue
backs which should have begun to show
Itself five or six days ago has not yai
appeared and up to date his been a
failure. This run is the principal harvest
of the upper river flwhwhee:. During
the past seven days there have been three
deaths among the fishermen.

AEsoc'ated Press. ' I
Washington, May 31. General Regnlfi,
the representative hire of ths republic of
Colombia, expects to be authorised by
his government to present a claim agalnct
the United States for damagee sustained
by his government by reason of President
Harrison s oroclamaitlon of tariff retalia
tion. Secretary Maine effected reciprocity
treaties with moeit of the Sou h and Cen
tral American republics, but Colombia,
and a few others, refused to make such
treaties. They were warned thait If they
hUd out agalnelt reciprocity they would
be retaliated against.' ThU failed to er
ect any arrangement. Thereupon, alt the
suggestion of Secre-tory of State Foster,
who had succeeded Ulalne, President Har
rison proclaimed discriminating tariff
ratee againdt t'ho coffee, hides, sugar, and
mola.iaea of Colombia. This practically
ruined the trade of Colombia, as her
coffee and hides could nut be sent here
against the competition of Brazil, Mexico
md other countries which enjoyed free
dom from dutks under reciprocity treat
ies. These expoi'ts to the Un.ted States
reported about 6,000,000 petal, a pesos be
ing worph 46 cents, buit Immediately after
the provmmaitlan they fell to almost noth
