Last Year. ; Prominent almon packer predict that this will be a good year In their line of business, the season so far having been good, i-wita most flattering prospect for lthe remainder .of the year. The run of fish has been most satisfactory, and this condition is gradually Increasing, both In number and sixe of the fish,- there be ing, a good run In the river at present and the fishermen are reaping a barvesf- The heavy run of July fish Is expected about . the tOth, and the packers expect to equal or exceed the packs of the three -or four previous yeara The amount of fish packed to date' is fully double that packed at a correspon ding date a year ago,, a In 1901'' the amount of fish that entered the' river be fore July was very small, and the run this year ia greatly In excess of that of two years ago. Especially is 'this true of ths fish put up by the cold storage plants, " f Early fn the season the fish were unus ually small, and this accounts for a few of the canneries not having as large a pack proportionately as the others, as some of them, especially Booth's, had very little small gear in the water. . The fish packed So tar have been of excel lent . quality, fully tu per .cent' of them being Chinook, and will command the Very, highest market price. On the upper river tne catch Is reported to be very large.. The wheels have been In operation only about a month, and the deliveries at the canneries are now averaging U to IS tons a day. On the lower river all classes of gear are doing welt. While It is impossible to obtain exact figures, a careful -estimate shows the amount of fish put up on the Columbia river thus far this season is 123,000 cases, figured on the basis of four dosen one pound cans to the case. Besides this, the 'cold storage plants have handled 614 tons of cured fish,, equaling b'5 tons of raw fish, or 23,000 cases. These figures do not Include the steel heads, of which fully 200 tons haya. been shipped in cold stor age. It Is feared that there will be a scarcity of help when the big run comes. There ha been some difficulty In securing help about the flsnerles for several years, and the demand this season is likely to be more marked than for several years 'past The fact that th eannerle are paying 5 cents a pound for fish and the cold-, storage people cents will enable the fishermen to experience a profitable sea son. Considering that the prices for the canned product have ruled pretty high thus far this year encourages the can ners in the belief that they, too, are to enjoy a profitable year. However, there' may be a slump in the market But, on the whole, conditions are very encourag ing. STRIKERS RESTRAINED. Judge Fraser Saturday Issued an order out of the State Circuit Cou-c restrain ing, temporarily, local teamsters from in terfering with the business of.Banfield & Veysey, slabwood dealers, of this olty, and commanding them to appear in court at 3 o'clock p. m.
