ROSS An accident that would probably have Ikcii attended with the loss of several lives had it happened a feiv minutes sooner, occurred on Ihe steam schooner .Majestic, loading ties at this port, on Saturday last. Tim noon whistles had j just blown, and all but two or three erf; the longshoremen had left the ship when she careened to starlxiard, throwing a j portion oi her deck load into the river, i Then she turned to port, dumping a j large numtier more. Hail the deck had been fastened she might have '"turned ' turtle.'' One man wa quite seriously j injured, his arm being crushed at the j wrist. The cause of the accident is sup- j ixised to have been poor loading, as she ' was in too deep water for her keel to j have touched bottom.

One thi.tis.md ! dollars for this purpose has been j subscribed by Ihe lieaver Transportation -j Co. nnd the citizens of Clalskanie. but of i course this does not near meet the ex - ; peuse, the balance iu wotk being donated by th'" Company as it will be an aid in their project of reclamation.
