IXTKRAVO.V MARKS BAD START Chip Ilmalcd. Struck by Lightning and Nearly Rammed. Captain Irdlngham. master of the British ship Jnveravon. of ths well known Invrr line, that now controls 13 vessels. Is sanguine that fewer than half a dozen of his crew will desert here, though less than a year ago he faced ths dilemma of having all of Ms com pany walk ashore, with the exception of apprentices and ths steward. The start of the voyage that brought ths ship to Portland ass made from I.ondon Christmas day and she turned about January 1 and put back to Fal mouth, having been dismasted. That day shs lost her maintnpmaat. fore rov alyard and mlxzen topgivllantmast as the result of the flercet of a succession of gales that began Jvnuary 1. She was struck on January IT by lightning that spilt the main truck and such confu sion --limed nmong the crew that a m e.a r sent to the captain reported that all masts had gone over the side, which erroneous ronvlctlon was due to ths fact that the messenger was blinded by ths flash. On the way from 1-omlon ths vessel came near being run down by a steamer and on the return had a nar row escape from colliding wltu a turret-decked tramp, so the sailors refused to take more chances after reaching Kalmouth. Repairs were made so that the ship wot away from the Channel March i. carrying general -argo for Adelaide and Melbourne, and later loaded coal at Newcastle for Portland. Phe encount ered no trouble beyond southeast gales off ths Coast, which did no damage. The Invrrmav. of the same line, which has en chartered to load here and Is on the mav from Valparaiso, sailed from Hamburg Christmas clay for Sydney and Valparaiso, but had better luck. Csptatn Tdlr,g!iam was here In the William TUley as mats 11 years ago. Ths Invsravon baa begun discharging real and will load wheat outward for A. perg. who recrartered the vessel froia Hind. Boron at Co. I.K r.E FATS KIRST REVENUE Idle Municipal Property Made Pro ductive as Berth. There was collected yesterday by Harbormaster Speler IIS for the privi lege enjoyed by owners of the steamer Alliance In berthing her at the city levee, foot of Jefferson street, which was ths f?rst revenue derived from that property by the municipality. An ordinance compelling vessels using that berth to par M a day for 1000 tons or under and 11-50 for more than that tonnage, became effective No vember IS. and It Is not doubted that the measure will provide a steady In come. "There appears no reason why ths city should not hsve bad the same yrlvtleres for eight or ten years." said Harbormaster Speler. "Good water Is available In front of ths dock, so that any of the large carriers la ballast can lie there safely. During the busy seasons, when exporters require all spare at their dorks and will not per mit deep-water carriers to lis at the berths for doubls the sum charged by the city, the levee offers virtually ths on'v economical locntton In the harbor. There are others who hsve used the levee in the past, but every craft moored there November IS and since wr.l be compelled to pay the dockage. TM ordinance provides a maximum fins of fit for fallurs to liquidate and it will be enforced." POMOTA GOES HARD ACROrXTI Fteamrr Rrtls In Four Inches or Water and Cannot Move. While nosing around in a heavy fog aooa after midnight yesterdsy, en route from Salem to Corrallls. ths steamer Pomona, of ths Yellow Stack Line, went aground In a slough abovs Syd ney. 1J miles north of Albany, and until ths Willamette rises on the upper reaches shs will bs out of commission. Lumber was ordered yesterday so that a roadway can bs constructed from ths steamer to ths main channel, about 1001) rest, and livestock and freight will bs unloaded on ths steamer Ors fons. Captain Graham left last night for Salem to board ths Oregona on a trip to tno scene. From reports mads to him yesterday it appears that ths Po mona was on time leaving: Salem and despite ths blanket of fog It was de cided by Captain Bluhra to head for Corvallla Apparently marks vers, picked up at Sydney and then ths steamer's course was changed so shs rould head along the east bank, but the high water made It difficult to keep In ths stream and she brought up In ths slough. The river was falling so rapidly that when ths Incident was reported yesterday the Pomona rested In four Inches of water. Captain Graham said that it was Impractical to move ths steamer over land to deep water, as shs rested as though In a basin, and even 'with the prospect of no higher water this week.

DREDGE COLUMBIA QUITS WORK Current Damages Pontoon and Df lays Work In Channel. Danger of damage from high wster and ths fact tha superfluous flow of ths past few days Interferes with digging. has caused a suspension of operations on ths port of Portland dredge Colunv Ma. at ths mouth of the Willamette Orders discontinuing the work were Is sued late Thursday night by Superin tendent Groves, after heavy drift run ning In the stream had crashed Into ons of ths pontoons, rendering It use. ess. Ths dolay Is not viewed as permanent, s It Is expected that the river will have fallen sufficiently by Monday, pro viding rains In the Willamette Valley south of Palem have ceased, to permit the big digger to resume. Captain Groves had planned to complete the work at the Junction of the Willamette and Columbia ss soon as practical, as It la a point where considerable diffi culty Is encountered In piloting large vessels when bound up-stream. The channel thers Is to be, widened to 1V feet, will have a depth of 28 feet and toe cut will extend upstream three quarters of a mile. Drift has accumu lated at several points In the harbor, but not In sufficient quantities to cause apprehension, as most of It Is small stuff. Marine Notes.

COMMISSION BILL IS BEFORE CLUBS East Side Societies Discuss Methods to Obtain Public Service Control. ATTORNEY CLARK TALKS Legislature Will Have First Chance to Enact Law, Because Time Will Not Permit Special Election Beforehand. While the Public Service Commission bill for Portland exclusively Is practically- completed by Attorney A. E. Clark, the members of the committee represent ing the Kast Fide Push Clubs and head ed by Pen Rlesland and Dan Kellaher, are considering the politics of the situa tion. Whether It is better to file their bill at once and submit It to the mercies of the Initiative at the next city election, which does no occur until June, 1911, or whether it will be better to hold their petition until It. Is ascertained what steps the State Legislature mill tnke In preparing a statewide Public Service Commission, sre the questions upon which the Kast Side clubs are deliber ating. It Is believed that the LegMature will pass a bill In any event, and it Is con ceded that by adding an emergency clause the act could be prevented from going under the referendum law. Hut It Is slso asserted that the act would be Impotent In Portland because this city has been granted a charter which gives It the exclusive control of franchises un der which most of the public service corporations carry on their business. Action of Solons Awaited. "The essence of the bill establishing a Public Service Commission in Portland relates to the franchises," said Attorney Clark yesterday in sneaking for the committee. "Everybody understands that the power to regulate franchises Is the only lever which the people can op erate to pry loose from the public serv ice corporstlons the betterments the people are demanding. Under these con ditions we feel that It will perhaps be better to wait until the Legislature shall have displayed its hand. "Conceding that many members of the Legislature will be found supporting a strong bllL it is true that the representa tives of the streetcar company in this city and other corporations are now to be found advocating a Public Service Commission law. Under that situation. It seems reasonable to suppose that Sen ator Malarkey's belief that an effort will be made to draw the fangs of his meas ure Is well founded. "The Legislature will have the first whack at enacting a bill because we could not now get the measure to a vote at a special election. If that were possi ble prior to the meeting of the state body. They may give us a law which will rreate a Public Service Commission I for Portland Instead of the state. In iiiai viiw, 1.110 pci'jjie CHn ro niicsu vim their ideas at the city election which follows, and by amending the charter widen the scope of the state bill if It shall be found necessary." ' Scope of Measure Wide. The committee, which has employed Attorney Clark to drsw Its bill. Is also undecided ss to whether it should rec ommend three or five Commissioners, and as to whether their appointment for the first year of service should be vested In the Governor, the Mayor or the names of the men be Incorporated ln the bill. Salaries are not named, but Inas much ss the entire time of the Com missioners will be required and they will be not allowed to engage In any other business, it is believed that their com pensation should be liberal. The term of office Is fixed at six years. After the first year they sre elected by the people. The bill gives Jurisdiction over all cor porations whose operations require a franchise from the city, snd takes In express, messenger and baggage transfer companies which are dealing with the public In a carrying capacity. Hearings are provided for. but after an order for betterment of service or ad ditional equipment has been Issued for the public good or safety, there Is no appeal except In contesting the Imposi tion of fines by the Circuit Court of Multnomah County. No extension of a streetcar line or any other public utility service may be made without the consent of the Com mission, nor can franchises heretofore granted be consolidated or sold without such consent. Published Report Proposed. All public sorvles corporations will be required to submit annual reports show ing the amount of their authorized bonded indebtedness, all receipts and ex penditures and the purpose, the amount paid as dividends upon stocks, the sal- rles of officers, location and values of plants. Provision is made for the pub lication of 1000 copies of the reports. In providing for the Issuance of bonds of a corporation, it is provided that a franchise ln the City of Portland shall not be valued at more than its actual cost, snd no contract for the consolida tion of companies shall be capitalised In etcher stocks or bonds. Plants oper ated by public service corporations can not be teased without the oonsent of ths Commission. OFFICIALS TO SEE SHOW Bowrrman and West to Be Press Club's Oneata at "A Xlght Oft." Portland will bo the temporary capi tal of Oregon the night of December 19, as Acting Governor Bowerman and Governor-elect West, with other state and local officials, will occupy boxes at the Heillg Theater, as guests of the Portland Press Club at their holi day frolic.

Army officers from Vancouver Bar racks are planning a box party for that night, and a number of other peo ple In the town across the Columbia hare signified ftzelr intention to view the entertainment. OFFICES N0J COMBINED Health Department, However, May Do Plumbing; Inspection. Efforts to make the Plumbing Inspec tor's office a part of the Building In spector's of floe met defeat at the meet- Ing of the health and police committee of the Council yesterday morning, when an opinion from City Attorney Grant was read. In which It was explained that the charter did not contemplate such an ar rangement. If the Plumbing Inspector Is to be affiliated with any department, Mr. Grant stated. It should be with ths health department, and In accordance with this suggestion, the City Attorney was directed to draw up an ordinance to combine the health and plumbing depart ments. The health and police committee de cided to authorize oaSpollce department to enforce tli law preventing merchants from obstructing the sidewalks with goods. Front street, however, was made an exception to this rule, for It was felt that there was so little sidewalk traffic there during the morning hours when produce was being unloaded, that more benefit than Injury would result from the practice of using the walk for commer cial purposes. Although such a sentiment was not ex pressed at the meeting. It Is understood that the Council would not object to tha use of the sidewalks by merchants at night time for the purpose of bringing goods Into the stores.
