Cup talu Polhomus expects to make a survey of the craft ami report again to tho War Departinunt through Ma jor Williams, in Portland, successor to Colonol Morrow. Tho War Department has sovernl times hnd the nintter of romovlng tho hulk before them. Tho ofriccrs Imvo sent baek word that the North west Is not blocking the channel and thcrerore it is not up to the (lovernnient to stnnd any of tho ex pense of removing hot. On tho other hand tho Port de clares that the hulk Is not tied to thu dock and that Inasmuch ns she Is in tho channel oven If alongside a dock, she Is a hindrance to navigation. mo niimer win no talcen up with the engineers again. Tho Port has already signified Its willingness to stand half tho share or removing the Northwest and towing her out to sea for destruction. Examination of the hold of tho vessel shows there is approximately tour moro reet of water Insldo than outsldo at low tldo. This is taken to mean the ship is burled In the mud. It Is feared that sho will stick Inst and thero will ho consider able troublo to hiitlgo tho craft from Its oozy berth into which for years It has boon steadily burrowing. Thoro la a small cargo of stone aboard as ballast and this must, bo removed and probably, according to Henry Sengstackeii, secretary of tho Port, will be included In tho final cost of roinovul. Hut in tho meantime the North west blocks tho dock or the Coos Day Milling Company, precluding tho chances of other ships to got nlon-slde. Mr. Chnrlesou, seeing no chance or ' getting it turned hack In a hurry. came on Into town and yesterday started out on the stngu, going buck Tor his car. At a turn In tho road a big deer dashed madly across the highway ami disappeared mi tho hill lu tho brush A row minutes Inter the animal came leaping across thu road again, this t lino headed down hill. It Jumped nnd hurdled Into u mass af black borry bushes under u high hank, ami lay there panting ami scrambling. The stngo car was stoppctl and the, men got out. Mr. Charloson says; that ho became mighty furious ami j walked over to tho etlgo of tho hank' nml, whllo looking down, the bank gave way and cavetl lu and carried ' III tn down on top of the deer. "Then what happened?" was tho1 query. "Woll, 1 don't know yet," declared tho engineer. "That tleerl made a funny llttlo uolsc, gnvo a ' kick and n Jump and fairly whistled through the air and that's the last I saw of It." The car was finally righted nnd brought buck to town. i .ft XEWS OF COOl'ILLE YESSEI, A DIG' ONE Largest Wooden Sailing Vessel Coast Delug llullt la Yards mi Willamette Q Wash the Easy, '" l. ... ''.
