FOR REPORTING VESSESL
3IOVK TO GET STATIONS AT FORT
GANBY AND TATOOSH JSLAND.
"Weather Bureau nnd Secretary of
Agriculture Favor Sttp Ad-
van tn gen Pointed Ont.
"WASHINGTON. 28. The Weather
Bureau and the Secretary of Agriculture
are quite anxious to have re-established
at Fort Canby and at Tatoosh Island
the vessel-reporting stations which some
years ago were in operation, but which
have subsequently been discontinued.
Representative Moody interested himself
in this matter, and called on he Chief
of the Weather Bureau for a full state
ment of the necessities for such stations.
It was pointed out to him that the need
for a station of observation and vessel
signalling station at Fort Canby arises
from the f ict that at present the Weather
Bureau observation station at Astoria
is the nearest one to the mouth of the
Columbia River. Astoria, moreover, is
also distant from the immediate coast,
and although reports of vessels are tele
phoned to Astoria by the life-saving crew
at Fort Cmby, yet a full observation at
the luttcr place would be much more
valuable and give more efficient service
and satisfactory reports, both to the
vesselmen and to the Weather Bureau
forecast official at Portland, for use in
giving warnings of storms. As there
Is already a telegraph line to Fort Can
by, no appropriation Is necessary for the
re-establishment of the station at that
point, except $4000 for the erection of a
Weather Bureau building.
The station at Tatoosh Island was
abandoned on account of the giving out
of the cable between that point and the
mainland, when the station was moved
to Neah. It has been found, however,
that the latter point is not a desirable
location for an observation station, not
being on the immediate coast, and con
sequently shut off from the sight of the
vessels passing outside. Therefore, un
der existing circumstances, the service
rendered by the Weather Bureau at
Neah is not satisfactory to the vessel
men of that region, and many requests
have been made for the re-establishment
of the station at Tatoosh Island. It is
estimated that it will cost C03 for the
erection of a small building at Fort
Canby, and $5000 for cne at Tatcosh
Island, while the cost of a cable, includ
ing laying and other incidental expenses,
to connect Tatoosh Island with the main
land, is estimated at $20,000.
A very full report on these two sta
tions has been made by the inspector of
the Weather Bureau, who says:
"A vessel-reporting station at the
mouth of Juan de Fuca Is able to an
nounce the arrival of a ship from IS
to 21 hours before she reaches her dock,
and .one at the mouth of the Columbia
River wili give Information nearlj as
far ahead for vessels bound for Port
land. Information of this character Is
of very great value to many persons, as
follows: (a) The consignees are perhaps
the most Interested, as they are enabled
to cable owners, to prepare the dock for
the ship's reception, and do many other
things necessary In the way of disposing
of cargo, arranging for reloading, ob
taining ship's supplies, etc. (b) Tugboat
men, pilots and underwriters use these
reports and find them of great value In
their line of work, (c) Customhouse of
ficials and quarantine officers are en
abled to arrange for giving prompt at
tention to the ship's wants, (d) Ship
chandlers and ethers interested in refit
ting vessels likewise reap benefits from
the Information contained in vessel re
ports, (e) Friends of passengers can
calculite when to meet them if the time
of the boat's crossing the bar or en
trance into the Strait of Juan de Fuca
is known.
"Thus it can be seen that the interests
served by vessel reports are manifold,
and if they are obtained through the
bureau it will greatly augment Its use
fulness to the public
"Reliable reports of the condition of
the bar at the mouth of the Columbia
River would result in a great saving of
time and money to vessel owners, as
outward-bound ships frequently start
from Astoria to cross the bar and find It
too rough, and have to return to harbor
and wait another day or two for smoother
water. A properly qualified man on the
lookout at Fort Canby can easily see
the bar and judge its condition with
sufficient accuracy to prevent much un
necessary work. The bar pilots of As
toria complain that, owing to the ab
sence of efficient reports, they and ves
sel owners are put to considerable un
necessary expense through making fruit
less attempts to cross the bar.
"The Weather Bureau official at Neah
Bay Is very faithful In the discharge of
his duty, but the location of the station
Is such that his vessel reporting work
is not as efficient as it would be If the
station were placed at Tatoosh Island.
The united States Engineers are now
building a jetty at the entrance of Grav's
?rXI- -? 5 !K"VJ? ,SE?
The shipping entering here is Increas'ng
verj- rapidly and the town of Aberdeen,
at tha head of the harbor, has doubled
its population within the lasi two or
three years. Vessels should be reported I
off the mouth of this harbor, but to do J
it would necessitate the building of a I
telegraph line from Westport to Ab?r- 1
deen, a distance of about 25 miles.
I should very much like to see the ln tne jne Slerra Reserve of California;
station at Fort Canby re-established, if and in addtion. there were the unrecord
for no ochcr reason than that our rep- , cd thousands owned by roving Basque,
resentatives might report vessels. Ves- i Frcncn and Portuguese herders,
sel Information ought to come to Port-, Tne questions here arise. Is any harm

tering the Strait of Juan de Fuel should
be reported to the Seattle office and dis- !
trlbuted to the public through that cen
ter. "It is not uncommon for vessels bound
for the Columbia River, or through the
Strait of Juan de Fuca, to be held by a
severe gale off the mouth of these wa
ters for several days at a time, and
sometimes a week or more elapses before
they are able to proceed to their desti
nation. Deep-water ships are likewise
held inside of these gateways to the sea
for an equal length of time by the same
gale. The Important part of the storm
warning work in this district Is to ad
vise vessels well inside of the approach
of a storm outside, so that they may de
lay their departure until the conditions
"become sufficiently moderate to allow
them to proceed uninterruptedly on their
way. as a start from port and return
back to the nearest harbor means a
large additional outlay for towing.
"Our stations nearest these Important
gateways of commerce are both very
unfortunately situated. Winter storm
winds are almost always, in this section
of the country, from a southerly quad
rant. Astoria, one of these stations, Is
about six miles from the mouth of the
Columbia River; high hills surround the
city on all sides, except the north side,
and as recently as last week a gale oc
curred at the mouth of. the Columbia
River so severe as to damage a pilot
boat and to cause her to take advantage
of the first opportunity to make a har
bor, which is a thing rarely happening
to a craft of this kind. Curing the
height of this gale, the maximum wind
velocity at Astoria was only 20 miles,
which shows how misleading the reports
are at this outpost.
"The Neah Bay station topographically
is similarly situated, and an officer con
nected with the lighthouse service told
me that he was aboard of their stanch
steamer Columbine about a year ago,
at anchor in Neah Bay, when a gale oc
curred sufficiently strong to cause her to
drag her anchor, and It was estimated
by the captain to be blowing at the rate
of about 50 miles an hour. At the first
opportunity he, with other officers, vis
ited the Weather Station to ascertain
the velocity recorded by the anemo
meter. They were informed by the ob
server that 12 miles was the highest ve
locity that day at the station.
"Ship captains want to know what the
weather is outside, and there are good
locations for obtaining the exact infor
mation desired, viz., at Tatoosh Island,
Washington, and Fort Canby, Washing
ton. Stations at these places will be of
great value, not only through their
weather reports, but by their being ex
cellent locations for reporting vessels as
soon as they make the coast. Vessel
reports from these stations might some
times be the means of saving a valuable
ship from going ashore, by calling to
her assistance a tug, arid thus not only
property, but precious lives, would be
saved. As our stations are now situated,
we are only able to prevent ships from
leaving port and running Into a de
structive storm, and we can do nothing
for those outside, no matter how serious
their condition may be.
"The forecasting of storms on this
coast is .an extremely difficult matter
and anyone at all familiar with this work
can. readily understand why such is the
case. It Is doubly difficult when reports
from our most western stations are so
misleading In the matter of wind ve
locities, and I trust that no expense will
be spared to place the Pacific coast
storm-warning service upon as efficient
footing as possible.
"It hardly seems necessary to refer to
the rapidly-expanding commerce of- this
coast as a reason for the betterment of
the service, but a few figures may not
be out of place. Thirty years ago, or
at about the time of the establishment
of the storm-warning service now con
trolled by the Weather Bureau, one ves
sel comprised the entire foreign grain
fleet sailing from Portland, Or., while
the grain and flour ships last year, sail
ing from Portland direct to Europe, Af
rica and the Orient, consisted of 150 ves
sels, with cargoes valued at nearly
$10,000,000.
"The shipments from Puget Sound
ports, consisting principally of lumber to
South Africa and Australia, and of gen
eral merchandise to Alaska, have greatly
increased, but the exact figures are not
at hand and therefore cannot be
quoted.
"On July 12, 1S9S. the Weather Bureau
office at Tatoosh Island, Washington,
was moved to Neah Bay, Washington,
nearly seven miles east, and the seacoast
telegraph line between Ncah Bay and
Tatoosh Island was abandoned. It is
found that through this change of loca
tion the effectiveness of the seacoast
telegraph line maintained between Neah
Bay and Port Crescent, Wash., has been
Interfered with, since It prevents the
observer from seeing vessels lying out
side the Strait of Juan de Fuca. and
hence he is unable to transmit certain
marine Intelligence that may at times
be of the utmost Importance. The navi
gation of the Strait of Juan de Fuca is
extremely hazardous for ?5ea-goIng ves
sels, unless they are being towed, for
the following reasons: (a) It is an ex
tremely deep body of water, and there
fore but few anchorage grounds are
available. (b)(. The tides are strong and
should a sailing vessel enter the Strait j
and the wind die out. she would be in !
great danger of drifting ashore, (c) j
If strong head winds are encountered she
could not enter the Strait and beat
against them for lack of sea room, (d)
Also If the weather Is thick she dare not
enter the Strait except under tow. Sail
ing vessels, therefore, generally lay out
side of Cape Flattery until picked up by
a tug and towed Into the Strait. A
captain of a large vessel told me that
within a year he was forced by bad
weather to He off Cape Flattery two
weens oeiore being picked up by a
tug. and that during most of the time
he was In plain sight of Tatoosh
Island. If our station had been on Tat
oosh Island he would have been reported
and a tug sent at once, but at. Neah Bay
vessels outside cannot.be seen, and de
lays of this character, I am told by
tug boatmen, are of frequent occur
rence. "The weather reports from Neah Bay
are also misleading to the forecast of
ficial, as they do not at all represent
weather conditions existing at sea. The
station Is over six miles from the mouth
of the Strait and well sheltered from
the storms, and neither the direction of
the wind nor the force of the wind ex
isting here are a guide to the conditions
outside. The weather at Tatoosh Island,
on the other hand, truly represents the
conditions experienced by vessels at sea,
and It Is this weather that mariners wish
to know about. When It Is known that
rough weather prevails at sea. outgoing
vessels will remain safely In harbor until
the storm subsides. The forecast of
ficial cannot always judge of the sever
ity of the storm outside from the mis
leading Xeah "Bay reports. Wrecks have
occurred in the past, and they are likely
to occur again along the seacoast south
of Cape Flatterj'. With a Weather Bu
reau station on Tatoosh Island, they
would be seen and " reported at once.
With the station at Neah Bay they can
not be seen, and they might lie there
for a week or more before the fact be
came known, as the only means of com
munication with this shore is by boat,
and in rough weather it necessarily is
very Infrequent. It is my earnest rec
ommendation that the Neah Bay station
be moved back to Tatoosh Island at the
ZXt .IST 5T"tiS
ex
pense of moving the office will be con
siderable, but in view of the vast ship
ping Interests so vitally affected. I be
lieve It 1! fully warranted."

harm?
The answer is, that the primary object
in establishing the United States forest
reserves was to conserve the water sup
ply. It is upon the-water supply from the
mountains that the life of the valleys
and lowlands depends. As vegetation" Is
the chief means toward the conservation
of the water, vegetation of every sort
must be protected in every possible way.
Vegetation exerts this Influence for sev
eral reasons:
1. When the light rains and the dews
come, every trunk, sucker, stem, shoot
and blade, wherever foundt acts as a
leader to guide the drops down through
the surface strata to cool land-hidden
places of the precious mountain streams
below.
2. When the snows melt, and the heav
ier rains fall ln torrents, it may be.
every growing thing Is a worker with
trunk and roots, according to Its strength,
to hold back the rush of water that else
would gully the mountain sides, and ln
time wash them bare.
3. Fallen leaves", twigs and the entire
loose debris of the woods would all serve
as a natural and greatly needed mulch to
the soil for the danger time of the long
Summer droughts.
4. The crowns of the trees and bushes
and the grasses are curtains and screens
over the damp ground, to shield it from
the drying power of the sun, and from
the equal or greater power of the winds.
It is in ways like these that the vegeta
tion of the mountain conserves, directly
or indirectly, the water supply upon
which the life of the lowlands depends.
No wonder that the toilers In those low
lands are sensitive ln the extreme to
anything that directly or Indirectly, evi
dently or supposedly, endangers that sup
ply. And now. as I have said, come by
the million the sheep to do this very
harm, so It is claimed. And verily the
list of charges against the sheep and
their herders is a long one. And the
complainants are not of one class merely.
They are cattlemen. saall ranchers, or
chardists, electricians, hunters, tourists
and campers well-nigh everybody but
sheepmen and their clients.
FAIRS TURNED DOWN
(Continued from First Page.)
regard to this- bill was protected by the
meteorological conditions ln his district.
Carmack (Dem. Tenn.) called atten
tion to the fact that Hepburn had been
forced to appeal to the Democratic side
to protect the treasury. For himself, he
said, he thought the Government could
expend money on the rivers and har
bors of the country with more profit to
the people than In spending It 7000 miles
beyond the sea ln subjecting a people
who wanted to be free.
Reeves (Rep. 111.), a member of the
river and harbor committee, resented
Hepburn's charges that the Individual
items in the bill couuld not stand alone
upon their merits. He said the bill as It
passed the House contained 359 items.
The Senate, after investigating, had
rejected but four of them. The special
order was adopted.
Burton (Rep. O.), chairman of the river
and harbor committee entered the
motion to non-concur in the Senate
amendments, and after a brief statement
the motion was adopted and the bill was
sent to conference. Messrs. Burton, (Rep.
O.), Reeves (Rep. I1L) and Catchlngs
(Dem. Miss.) were appointed conferees.
Inland Visit Raised Cry o "Junlcet."
Dalzell (Rep. Pa,), from the committee
on rules, presented a resolution for the
appointment of a special committee of
seven members on insular affairs, not
more than four of whom shall be of one
party, to visit Cuba. Porto Rico and the
Philippines and report upon the condi
tions there,
Richardson, the minority leader. In
dorsed the resolution. He thought that
if Congress was to legislate it should
have the Information which this com
mltee could get.
"Inasmuch as we are about to give
up Cuba and have a commission ln the
Philippines, is this anything more than a
proposition for a Junket?" aed Steel
(Rep. Ind.)
"It is not a Junket," replied Richard
son. "This Investigation should be
made."
Williams (Dem. Miss.), a member. of the
Insular committee, believed this would be
simply a congressional junket.
Powers (Rep. Vt,), declared that this
resolution was the boldest and most in
excusable junketing report he had ever
seen reported.
Cooper (Rep. Wis.), chairman of the
committee on Insular affairs, said If
Congress was to legislate, it should havo
Information at hand first. If he was ap
pointed on the committee, Cooper said,
he for one would attempt to get at oil
the facts in Porto Rico, Cuba and the
Philippines.
Underwood (Dem. Ala.) and J. R. Wil
liams, (Dem. 111.) supported the resolu
tion. Sundry Civil BUI Amendment Lroat.
Debate upon the resolution was inter
rupted by Cannon (Rep. 111.), who pre
sented a partial conference report upon
the sundry civil appropriation bill. The
Items agreed to comprised all the minor
issues, leaving still ln dispute the Item of
$332,000 for the purchase of the old Cor
coran art gallery ln this city; the ap
propriation for the memorial bridge
across the Potomac at Washington; the
payment to Mexico of $412,000; the appro
priation for the Buffalo, Charleston and
St, Louis expositions, and the amend
ment touching the irrigation of arid
lands. The report was adopted.
Separate votes votes were demanded
on various amendments. The House re
fused to concur ln the irrigation amend
ments. The amendment for $3,000,000 for a mem
orial bridge was defeated. G5 to 116.
The conferees were Instructed to in
sist upon their agreement to the amend
ment to Increase the salaries of the ap
praisers at Boston and Philadelphia.
Alexander (Rep. N. Y.), moved to re
cede and concur In the Senate amend
ment carrying $3,000,000 for the St. Louis
exposition, $500,000 for the Buffalo ex
position, and $250,000 for the Charleston
exposition. The motion provoked .a lively
debate. Payne, the majority floor leader,
was particularly vigorous in opposition.
declaring that he would rather see this
great appropriation fall, and see an
extra session precipitated than "be held
up" by these three appropriations. He
denounced the plea that the Charleston
appropriation would cement the good feel
ing between the North and South, saying
that if loyalty had to be purchased, it
was not worth having.
Latimer (Dem. S. C.) made a vigorous
response, contending mat Charleston
made no plea for special favors, but for
the same treatment that was accorded to
St. Louis and Buffalo.
Cannon (Rep. 111.), closed the debate,
criticising" the Senate exposition amend
ments until he was called to order by
one of the South Carolina members, and
cautioned by the Speaker against com
menting on the action of the other
branch of Congress. As Cannon proceeded
he displayed Intense earnestness. The
time has come, he asserted, to resist the
legislative Invasions of the other branch
of Congress. There were worse things,
he said, suggestively, than extra sessions
of Congress. For himself, he declared,
he was ready to see this great bill, fail,
for he would never purchase freedom
from extra sessions by auch an abuse of
legislative rights. Cannon's speech created
something of a sensation, .and he was
vigorously applauded.
On a rising vote, the motion to concur
was defeated, 76 Co 139. The House- was
in an - uproar on the announcement of
this result, and many members sought
to gain recognition.
Sherman (Rep. N. Y.) mqved to con
cur with the St. Louis and Buffalo Items,
omitting the Charleston Item.
Bailey (Dem. Tex.) sought to amend by
excluding Buffalo and Charleston, but
the Speaker would not entertain the
amendment. The Sherman amendment
was defeated without division, and the
sundry civil bill was thereupon sent back
to conference.
The conference report on the deficiency
bill was concurred ln, thus disposing of
that measure.
At 5:30 a recess was taken until. 8
P. M.
Another disagreement was reported - on
the sundry civil bill by Cannon, and a
further conference ordered.
The House defeated by a vote of 139 to
S4 the resolution providing for a commit
tee to visit Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines and report on the conditions
there. The House then took a recess un
tlll 2 o'clock. At 2:45 the House again
met. but without transacting any business
took a recess until 4 o'clock.
SUNDRY CIVIL BILL.
Items Agreed Upon and In Dlspate
by Conference Committee.
WASHINGTON. March 3. The confer
ees on the sundry civil appropriation bill
have reported another disagreement, the
following articles being in dispute:
The three appropriations for the St.
Louis, Buffalo and Charleston exposition-;
appropriations of $250,000 for additional
buildings at Governor's Island; the memo
rial bridge across the Potomac; the In
crease of appraisers In Boston, Philadel
phia and other cities, to refund money for
buildings destroyed at Hot Springs, Ark.,
and for a National Soldiers' Home at Fort
Sheridan, Idaho.
Among the Items agreed to Is that for
the purchase of the old Corcoran art gal
lerj In "Washington at $300,000, instead of
$333,000, as provided ln the Senate amend
ment. Among the Senate amendments retained
In the last agreement are the following.:
Lighthouse vessel for the 12th and 13th
district. Pacific Coast, $90,000; for rallltary
posts at Forts D. A. Russell, Wyoming,
and McKenney, Wyoming, $35,000, In
stead of JoO.OOO each, the entire appropria
tion for. military posts remaining at $1,000,
000 as in the House bill.
The Senate amendment for gauging
I streams is moderated by approprlatlnglhe
amount made by the House, $100,000, but
the .Senate language applying It to un
derground examinations In the arid re
gions Is retained.
Tfie Senate receded from amendments
appropriating $200,000 for a revenue cutter
for Hawaii and the payment of $412,572 to
Mexico on the La Abra and Well claim.
Among those In dispute are fish hatch
erics In Utah and Idaho, $23,000 each, and
the Senate provision permitting grazing
on the forest reservations.

The Case of Professor Ross.
New York Times.
A long and careful Investigation made
by a committee appointed by the San
Francisco alumni of Leland Stanford Ju
nior University Into the circumstances at
tending the departure of Dr. Ross from
that Institution has convinced its mem
bers, according to a report they have Just
made, that, though ltwas a case of prac
tical dismissal, and not of voluntary res
ignation, no infringement on tho right of
free speech was Involved. Dr. Ross, It
seems,, flrst excited the criticism, of Mrs.
Stanford and the university authorities
as long ago as 1SS6, when he prepared
for publication and circulation by one
of the political parties a pamphlet on
the silver question, signed not only with
his name, but also with his university
title as professor of economics. The doc
tor admitted to tho committee that In
this and other respects his conduct dur
ing that campaign was such as he would
not now commend or Tepeat, thereby
practically admitting' that the criticism he
then received was just. From December,
1S96, when the chair held by Dr. Ross
was changed from that of economics to
that of social science, his position was
probational; and' Mrs. Stanford's confi
dence ln him was further shaken by his
use of slang in his public and classroom
lectures, and by reports that the latter
had contained references derogatory to
her deceased husbcind. The committee
found no reason for believing that her
final demand for . the doctor's dismissal
was due to disagreement with his econom
ic teachings, the moving causa being,
rather, a conviction that her estimate
of him, formed In 1SS6, was correct, and
that he was again displaying, after three
years of trial, tho objectionable quali
ties upon which her original disapproval
was based. The committee lays special
emphasis, as proving the inconsistency
of Dr. Ross' claim that Mrs. Stanford
tried ,to restrict the expression of his
opinions, the fact that, despite her criti
cisms, he wanted to remain ln tho uni
versity, and only left It when he was
forced to choose between resignation and
dismissal. The committee presents no
views as to tho effect on the university
of the exercise of such power and Influ
ence as it found Mrs. Stanford to possess.
Me Stared Too Lobr.
New Tork Press.
Senator Chandler has long ceased to rep
resent Republicanism of any recognizable
kind, and least of all New England Re
publicanism. Hence the fate which has
overtaken him ln pursuance of indications
visible to every one but himself for near
ly five years past, and. frequently noted
in these columns. Is merely a coincidence
of his constituents' opinion with his own.
Alter slipping a ''bimetallst" plank Into
Thomas B. Reed's platform of candidacy,
after opposing the fulfillment of the
pledges of the St. Louis convention, and
after going on to the frank socialism, of
proposing the confiscation of steel mills
for the offense of putting their own price
on Government supplies, the New Hamp
shire Senator should have left his post
and party without waiting to be pushed
out.
