BEAR SAILS WITH BIG LIST Innoratlon In Fa-e wells Introduced as Bevy of Tonn; Women Throw Streamers ot Paper Ribbons to Friends on Dock. In the absence of an official an nouneement of appointments In the for mation of an executive staff for the 6an Francisco & Portland Steamship Company, the fact that G. I Blair, gtn. eral freight agent of tne line, passed most ot yesterday In conference with J. D. Farrell, president of the com pany and head of the O.-W. R. & N la taken as evidence to substantiate the assumption among mariners that Mr. Blair will soon be designated as gen eral manager of the "Big Three" co terie. It was renerally expected among friends of Mr. Blair that he would re turn to San Francisco yesterday on the steamer Bear, bnt he was not num bered with her passengers and at sail ing hour was said to be closeted with the powers that be In the Wells-Fargo building. Other Appointments Expected. The system of organization that will be In vogue after March 1 Is reported to be In course of preparation, and there Is reason to oelleve .iat wnen word goes forth from the office of the president that a manager has been formally selected there will be a list of other appointees to maintain the pres ent service. A. Ottlnger, general agent of the line, who was here and on Puget Sound for a few days, departed on the steamer Bear. He disclaimed to have In his possession an appointment sf any char, acter, and it Is presumed that he will continue his relations with the pas senger department of the Paclflo Mall. With the date for establishing the headquarters of the company at Port land only a week away, but a few days will elapse probably before the names of future officers are made known and steps taken to shift the directing regime from San Francisco. The sailing of the Bear yesterday was featured by a large passenger list, as she Is the first steamer of the line to get away for ten days, the Beaver not having made her scheduled voyage, owing to being under repairs at San Francisco. Innovation la Introduced. An Innovation In farewells was Intro duced as the Bear hauled Into the stream, for a bevy of young women appeared on the boat deck with bolts of colored paper streamers, and, throw ing the ends to friends on the dock, played out the ribbons until the ship was over 100 feet from the wharf and her tide was trailing with them. Piled on the forecastle of the Bear was a collection of condemned life saving equipment, steamship apparatus that has long ago been discharged and "Junk" of various kinds which had ac cumulated on Alnsworth dock. Captain NoMnder was charged with the re sponslbillty of getting rid of the stuff and. On reaching the briny deep, It will be consigned to the depths. the best methods to be undertaken in floating the ship. Both agree that there are good prospects for the ves sel again being in deep water. AKCTAX TO BE LAUXCHED SOOX Tnc Xorth Klnsr to Remain - In Alaska In Future.

RECREATION PIER TO START Public Landing at Stark Street to Be Available This Tear. Owing to the departure for the East yesterday of F. W. Mulkey, chairman of the Commission of Public Docks, the regular meeting did not take place, but at an early session the commission voted to Instruct the City Engineer to proceed with the . establishment of a grade at the foot 'of Stark street, ex tending from the harbor line to the grade of Front street, so that a start can be made on the recreation pier and motorboat landing planned there. It Is roughly estimated -that the pier will cost $15,000. It will extend to the harbor line on a level with Front street, but a space 15 feet wide will be left on each side so that owners of adja cent property can provide roadways on which to reach the docks. The pier will be on concrete and steel and at the end a slip will be provided leading to a float on the river side, so small vessels may be reached. When the grade is established the commission will ask for bids, as it Is desired to have the pier available this season. FREE FILLS GET RESTXTS Owners Xot to Hold Title to Land Gratuitously Improved. Balfour. Guthrie, & Co. la the first firm to sign a waiver In connection with a fill being made beneath the dock of the Crown Flour Mill, which is in ef fect that an upland owner will not claim title to land filled free of charge, so in the event the property Is con demned for public dock purposes the city will not be made to pay damages for a gratuitous fill. If the fill Is paid for by the owner he will be entitled to compensation if condemned. It is understood on the waterfronr that all owners are not agreeable to signing a document to that effect. Many see in the move an opportunity to have space beneath docks filled with out cost and will take advantage of it. proceeding on the theory that In all probability their holdings will not be required for municipal use and they will be the gainers, as they are not prevented meanwhile from occupying the ground filled free. GENERA TJX REPORTS OX MIMI Surveyors Say German Bark Can Be Floated From Oregon Beach. Captain E. C. Generaux, of Seattle, surveyor for Frank Taylor, agent there for the German underwriters, re turned yesterday from Nehalem after examining the German bark Ml ml. which is ashore north of the bay, and made the following statement: "The bark is making no water. She is in good posltlo.i and one anchor with 75 fathoms of chain Is out. She la heading pretty well off shore and lies about 600 feet from low-water mark. There is from six to seven feet of water around her at high tide and she has a slight list to starboard. The vessel is absolutely tight and shows no sign of straining. They are filling the forepcak tank with water, so as to keep her down by the head' and that will tend gradually to work her stern around. She Is now heading about south-southwest magnetic." Captain Albert Crowe, of this city, acting as surveyor for ' the owners, waa with Captain Generaux and they will formulate recommendations as to J. W. Ransom, Portland agent of the San Francisco & Portland line, has been advised that the steamer Kansas City will leave San Francisco February 25, but one day behind the schedule of the steamer Beaver, and he plans to dispatch her from this end of the route on time, March 2. Bound from San Pedro for Portland, the steamer Aurella was reported to the Merchants' Exchange yesterday as having put Into Coos Bay short of pro visions. After getting edibles aboard she continued her voyage. Bound for Antofogasta, the schooner W. H. Marston was towed seaward last night, laden with 1.347,691 feet of lum ber, valued at $17,625. Captain O. W. Hosford is gathering information with a view to planning a 70-foot propeller steamer of light draft and the hull built on the tunnel type, to be used on small streams emptying into the Columbia, where she would be of service towing rafts. Carrying supplies the lighthouse tender Manzanlta will leave out today for Wlllapa and Grays Harbors. Superintendent Warrick, of the Sev enteenth Lighthouse District, was In formed by telegraph yesterday that Ligbtvessel No. 93, on Swlftsure Bank, had gone to Seattle to coal, and that she had been relieved by Llghtvessel No. 92. The change will be for two or three days. City Attorney Grant has been re quested by the Commission on Public Docks to expedite the trial of con demnation suits pending so that de cisions may be reached as soon as pos- siDie. The Commission desires to award contracts for publlo wharves without loss of time. Albers Brothers are to be granted permission to build a roadway beneath tne west approach of the Broadway bridge, so as to reach docks controlled by them north and south of the struc ture. as soon as a copy of the plan is filed with the Commission of Public Docks. The Council recently granted permission lor the Improvement. To work the last of her Oriental cargo the British tramp Twickenham ahifted yesterday from Oceanic dock to the elevator.

The Colt pitcher drafted from the Western Tri-State League aent in his signed contract to President Mc- PrrilA Yesterday. Mays was tendered a contract can ine for 160 a month more than he re ceived last season, but asked for $110 more. McCredie promptly wrote him that he must sign the nrst contract, or none at all. This overcame the hea ver's egotlstlo attitude and he Is reg istered for training camp life. It was not known until yesterday that Mays was a recalcitrant, the un derstanding being that not one ox tne recruits was balking. However. Mc Credie -was confident that the pitcher would come to terms upon realizing the futility of his demands, and events proved him correct. a John Kelly. Walter McCredie's Cali fornia scout, writes that Nick Williams has- secured a real ballplayer in the person of Gulgnl, the St, Mary's Col lege infielder. He is a husky lad, built alone the substantial lines of Bill Rodtrera. and hits the ball hard. Gulgnl signed a contract to play with Williams several years ago, as did Reuther. a left-handed pitcher, for Walter McCredie. Neither nams has appeared on the Portland reserve lists and it Is doubtful if they could have been held. McCredie says that he will make no effort to retain Reuther If Pittsburg or any other club wants him. Reuther beat Krause In a pitchers' battle the other day. Kelly Is also a strong admirer of Norton, the Colt who will battle with Nick Williams for first-base berth. Norton has been playing great ball in California this Winter. McCredie also thinks much of Norton, comparing him to Mike Mitchell when he broke Into the game on the Coast. e Joe Cohn has signed another pitcher. S. D. Melder, formerly with Omaha and Sioux City, of the Western League, is the new man. He did not play last year, owing to a badly split finger, but won four out of seven games at Sioux City in 1911 and winning half of his games with Omaha in 1910. Middle Western friends have boosted the lad to Cohn and Joey figures him one of the hurling reliables for 1913.. Cohn Is after one more Western League pitcher. according to Spokane papers.
