Mipcrt nt this xtmion ilaring tlio r
pent snow storm will say Unit, wliilo
tlio loss is sonii'wlint jitUinim, H vns
found, nitor n oIoho and onrofnl hi-
estimation, that tho loss was not tts
great as first thought. Darin? tlu
fitonn, tho snnV vouched a tlopth of
fiVc foci, followed by slecl and com
leather, which paused the ponds to
frcexe up, notwiithstatidinjr the faet
thnt we had all thu men available
trying to keep same cloar. Then
again, the large amount of snow and
the big slides which were coining
down off the mountain were a con
tinual menace to our water supply
which necessitated keeping men at
tho intakes of the flame and pipe line
in order to keep the water running.
The entire loss front all causes is
estimated to be 028,500, which is in
deed gratifying. We now have left in
good condition at this station 10,."iSl,-
080 chinook fry and 1,9:18,700 sock-
eye fry, making a total of 12,ilfl,7S0
fish on hand. Wo also have S:$i),0U0
eastern brook trout fry and eggs.
Migration of Marked Salmon Fry.
In my November report to your
bodVt 1 gave an account of the in
vestigation along the Columbia river
in order to determine the migration
of tho salmon fry which wore liber
ated from the Honneville central
hatchery on October 10. It will be
remembered that tho fish were fol
lowed and tlio last marked one in evi
dence was taken at a point opjosite
the mouih of the Willamett river.
about J5 miles below the hatchery.
On January 20, accompanied by
Deputies Itathbun, Gor and Mitchell.
I again took up this investigation.
The first work was done at Tlainier.
which is about 34 miles below the
mouth of tho Willamette. The first
haul was made near the doek at thnt
place, where we succeeded in captur
ing 21 cbiuook fry, three of which
Were marked with tho mark used at
the liouucville central hatchery, while
one was marked with a silver wire in
tho adipose fm, Which was the mark
used by tho United States bureau ot
fisheries. The next work was done on
tho Washington side of the Columbia
river, about 100 miles below the
hatchery, where 2S fry were taken,
six of which were marked with the
Bonneville mark and one with a sil
ver wire in the forward part of the
dorsal fin, which is also the mark of
tho United States bureau of fisheries.
Proceeding on down the river, hauls
were made nt different points and, in
every instance, a number of marked
fry were in evidence.
Anient Dam Tronble.
Wo have experienced considerable
trouble at tho Anient dam owing to
tho fact that the Chicago-Hogue Hiv
er company reconstructed tlio dam
last summer and being iu the hands
of n receiver failed to provide an
adequate passageway for fish over
same, notwithstanding that they re
peatedly promised that this work
would bo done before the coming high
water. Deputy Warden Sundry, after
considerable hard work, succeeded M
getting n temporary ladder installed
which, in n measure, took care of the
situntion while the river was too high
for the fish to make use of the stato's
fish ladder located on the south side
of the riven Upon being informed as
to tho conditions at that point, T in
structed Deputy Warden Sundry to
assist as many llt.li over tho obstruc
tion by means of a net as possible,
and I have since learned that a large
number of silversido salmon were put
over in this manner. I nrn later in
formed by State Oamo Warden Fin
ley and his deputy, Mr. Craig, who
made n personal investigation of con
ditions at tho dam a few days ago,
that tho fish aro now taking readily to
tho state's ladder and ascending the
liver without any difficulty through
this passageway, but there is still a
largo number of fish being held up
under tho dam on tho south side of
tho river and I havo instructed War
den Sundry to use every effort pos
remedied at onco.
Before iU ndournmeut, the Mivl
ford Mining cougre-s adopted the fol
lowing resolutiens:
Iturcau of Mines.
"Rofwlvcd, That we commend the

Mining District.
"Whereas,, The development of pro
cesses of ore treatment capable ot
handling with profit the vast low
grade deposits and main dumps of
