Feb. 26 The earnest efforts of the members of congress from the Pacific coast coupled with the dreadful lesson taught by the Valencia disaster will bring about the authorization of at least one first-clarevenue cutter for use about Puget Sound during the present session of congress, and will In time bring about the building of an adequate fleet. Just at present the leaders are shouting economy" so loudly that they cannot hear the needs of the country spoken in an ordinary tone of voice, and the coast may deem Itself lucky to get at least one new ship to guard the dangerous rocks of Washington. In a report Just made by Congressman Cushman of Washington from the committee on Interstate and foreign commerce, which has charge of the bill authorizing the revenue cutter, he This vessel is needed to re says: place the revenue cutter Grant, now performing service in that district, a vessel that is not now suitable on account of age and the effects of continuous service to properly perform duties devolving upon a vessel stationed in those waters. The numerous gales prevailing In this vicinity and the large amount of shipping constantly passing along this coast to and from the Important ports situated on Puget Sound render It necessary that a first-claefficient vessel should be available to render Immediate assistance when required. There are about 1,100 documented vessels of the United States In the district of Puget Bound, a large, number being steamers, and theae require constant supervision and inspection In the enforcement of the navigation and customs laws The vessel proposed will be a strong factor contributing to the enforcement of these laws." ss ss WORSE THAN OGDEN.

Kutchin, the agent who prepared the report, did some traveling, according to his tell, while on the asI left Wash signment. Says he: ington May 28 and between that time and my return traveled 6.247 miles by sea and 7.622 by land, a total of 16,068 miles. The time ient aboard ship v.as eighty-seve- n (lays. About 260 miles were covered in launch and small boat. Although the salmon pack at some fisheries outside of Alaska shows a falling off, the puck of the world for this year was nearly a million and a half cases greater than last. The total number of cannerita In operation this year was 47, against 55 In 1604. There were 22 salteries, against 18 last season. The number of firms or Individuals engaged in the business la 45, against 40 in 1804. The aggregate capital stock employed in the business Is 811.371.150, being a decrease In this Item of 82.576.35u from the reported capitalisation of last year. This reduction Is largely accounted for by the withdrawal from the field of the Pacific Packing and Navigation company, which represented a capital of 83,000,000. The Northwestern Fisheries company, which succeeded to the ownership of the major phrt of Its business, is capitalised at 81,000,000. The value of plants is placed at being 8156,878 less than last year, which Is due to the fact that a number of canneries are idle and are not taken account of. The season's pack foots up 1.888,015 cans and 18,881 barrels together with fish. In 7,565,009 pounds of dry-salt1804 the aggregate was 1,851,746 cases and 15,407. Being reduced to cases for 1806 the figures are 2,058,118 against 2,612,828 In 1804. While there is actually a loss of 64,731 cases of canned salmon, the total output for the year shows a gain of the equivalent of 46,181 cases, which Is explained by the large Increase of salted and dry-curfish. The total value of the product amounts to 86,563,655 against 87,735,782 last year." ed (N'ltiul to the State Journal.) WASHINGTON, Fell. I'd.

Inquiries regarding Imaginary estates In Holland became so great that the United states minister made a report setting forth the fraudulent character of the publications soliciting in subscriptions money from parties living in the United States. Since then there have been the "Anneke-Jan- s, the Cronkhelt, the Van Cot," the Van Dusseit," the 'Webber, the Brant" and the Mets-ge- r. Theae fictitious estates which are supposed to represent millions actually represent nothing. These estates do not exist," says Minister HilL They are myths fakes. The 'Bunk of Holland,' in which the unclaimed millions' are alleged to be deposited, does nut exist Careful Investigation induces the belief that these estates originated in the brain of some rascal speculator or speculators, who, Imposing on human credulity, found many victims and fleeced them most profitably. If these estates ever had a bona fide existence, they camfc clearly within the purview of the statute of limitations passed by the Dutch parliament In 1852, by which all unclaimed Inheritances escheated afles's lapse of five years to the state.
