Warden Clanton Report* Work of Hatcheries. on Salem Master Fish Warden Clanton in hia report this month gives s com plete statement of hatchery work throughout the alate. He calla atten tion to.th* fact tnat the fall closed sea son went into effect on the Columbia river Auguat 25 and say* no attempts have ao far been made to violate the law. Four deputy wardens patrol the riv er constantly in launchee. but the at titude of most of the fishermen, ac cording to Mr. Clanton, seem* to be to uphold the law ami allow the salmon to pass up the rivers to the hatcheries and natural spawning grounds. At the Bonneville hatchery, work on the retaining ponds, funds for which were subscribed bv the esnnerymen and packer* along the Columbia river, '• progressing rapidly. The hatchery building, troughs and baskets have also been thoroughly overhauled. At the McKenzie river hatchery, the egg-taking seaaon is at its height, and 339,000 Chinook eggs have been se cured. Although the prospects for a Urge take are not as encouraging as they were last season, owing to the I >w stage of water, Mr. Clanton say* be is confident that it will compare fa vorably with that of former years be fore the last salm-m has been spawned. The Wallowa river hatchery, like the McKenxie, ia feeling th«' effects of the long dry spell. The hatchery work of the Salmon river station has been interfered with somewhat by forest fires, but no dam age baa been done to the state's pro|>- erty. Superintendent Holcomb reports that 250,190 early Chinook egg* have been taken there. Improvemrtff* have been made to the hatchery on the Trask and repair* have been made to the permanent trap and rack at the Yaquina hatchery, which was washed away in freshets last year. The Alsea river hatchery station is merely an ex perimental station and is located about two mi I m above the head of tide on Bear creek. Everett K.

Special Com missions* Theodore Braes, in hi* re port to the Supreme Court in the ouster suit, declared the International Har vester company, uf New Jersey, a trust and a combine for the pur|««*«- of destroying competition in the manu facture and sale of harvesting machin ery.

The commissioner found that the McCormick Harvester company, the Deering Harvcsleing Mschine com pany. Warder, Bushnell, Glcssner * Co., the Plsno Manufacturing com pany, D. M. Osborne A Co., and the Milwaukee Harvesting Machine com pany, the latter being a respondent, were in active competition prior to 1902. In June. 190'2, Cyrus H. McCor miek went to George W. Perkins, of J. Pierpont Morgan & Co., of New York, and sought hie aid in relieving competitive conditions. According to the findings, Mr. Per kin* soon perfected a plan whereby the McCormick company and the other named compamea, excepting the Mil waukee company, ostensibly sold their properties to William C.', Lane. Lane, the commissioner found, pretended to sell them to the International Harves ter company. j ------- Among the new men on the faculty, W a notable addition is that of Dr. E. G.
