16 THE MOTCNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, MARCH 26, 1901. MADE FLYING TRIPS Kate Thomas and Craigisla Sail an Even Race. FIFTY-FOUR DAYS FROM 1QUIQUE Ci in Spencer Saves All the Mn- ehij&ery of the Frederick Billings O. It. & X. Tovrboats Movlnjj Ships 4n Record Time. The British ship Kate Thomas, which has a fine record for fast passages, ar rived In at Astoria yesterday, after a quick run of 54 days from Iqulque. This Is the fourth arrival from the west coast nitrate ports since Saturday noon, and all of the vessels made good runs, the Ruth well being out the longest and yet taking but Gl days to make the trip. The Craig isla, which had the distinction of being the smallest vessel on the en route list, and now has a similar prestige In port, reached Astoria Sunday, after a passage of Si days. She left Iquique In company with the German bark Marco Polo, which arrived at San Francisco Friday. As the Craigisla railed about 600 miles farther than the German vessel, she has a much better run to her credit, and her race with the Kate Thomas is a very close one. There are three other vessels due within the next fortnight from west coast ports, and, from present indications, the first of April will find a larger fleet of grain ships in the river than has ever assembled so late In the season. ATLANTIC LINERS IX TROUBLE. Cnnardcr Strikes Heavy Gales and Anchor Liner Has Smallpox. NEW YORK. March 23. The Cunard Line steamer Etruria, which arrived last night from Liverpool and Queenstown, was detained In the lower bay on account of a dense fog which prevailed all night. She reached quarantine early today. Heavy weather was encountered March 21 and 22, commencing with a westerly gale, which changed to the northwest. Several passengers were bruised and sus tained injuries requiring the attention of the ship'e surgeon. An Irish woman, one of the steerage passengers, became so alarmed at the pitching and tossing of the steamer that she became demented. She is still very ill. A second-cabin pas senger named Frederick Sawickl, a Rou manian, committed suicide by hanging. His body was burled at sea. The Anchor Lint steamer Britannia, which arrived last evening from Mediter ranean ports, Is detained at quarantine, owing to a case of smallpox among the steerage passengers. The patient will be sent to North Brothers Island. The pas sengers will be vaccinated and the steam er thoroughly disinfected before she Is al lowed to proceed. All the steerage pas sengers have been vaccinated. One hun dred and twenty-two steerage passengers who were quarantined in the compartment with the patient were transferred to the Hoffman Island for observation. The pa tient was removed today to the smallpox hospital at North Brothers Island. The steamer will be permitted to proceed to the city tomorrow morning. TOWDOATS' GOOD "WORK. Harvest Q,neen and OcUlahama Mak ing Pant Time With Ships. The O. R. & X. towboats Harvest Queen and Ocklahama have been doing some lively work on the river since last Sat urday afternoon. The work of these boats all through the season has been ex ceptionally good, the river service for that period being the best on record, but since Saturday they have made an unusual run. Last Saturday afternoon the Har vest Queen, in charge of Captain Bailey, left down with the Swanhilda, drawing 22 feet 6 inches, and the Ocklahama, Cap tain Snow, left down with the County of Linlithgow, drawing 22 feet 4 Inches. The steamers anchored over night a short distance below the city, and got under way again Sunday morning, and arrived down at Astoria at 5:30 Sunday evening. As soon as they dropped their tows they started back up the river, arriving here yesterday morning. The Harvest Queen made fast to the Arthur Fitger, which was drawing 22 feet of water, and the Ocklahama took the DImsdale. drawing 22 feet 2 Inches. They started down the river about 6 o'clock yesterday morning, and the Queen land ed her tov In Astoria at 5 o'clock, and the Ocklahama was only two hours behind ner, reaching Astoria at 7 o'clock last evening. The Harvest Queen will leave up this morning with the British barks Ruthwell and Craigisla and the Ockla hama will bring up the British bark Kate Thomas, which arrived in yesterday. SAVED THE MACHINERY. Captain Spencer Was Lucky, as Usual, With Frederick Billings. All that remains of the once elegant Bteamer Frederick Billings is the battered shell of a. hull clinging to the rock on which she split near Quinn's landing on the Columbia. Captain Spencer, who pur chased the wreck at United States Mar shal's sale a few weeks ago, has Just completed a highly successful job of re moving the machinery. He secured the big new boiler and engines In perfect con dition, and, instead of making a failure of landing them, as was predicted, per formed the task in much shorter time than was expected. In order .to work to the best advantage. Captain Spencer built e scow 75 feet long and about 30 feet beam. He ran this scow up under the stern of the Billings, and slid every piece of ma chinery aboard of the craft over on to the bcow without losing or breaking any of it. The cylinders were taken out first, and when the boiler was ready to move it was jacked up on skids and rollers and slid down over the cylinder timbers and was safely aboard the barge in exactly 30 minutes after it started to move. The machinery Is all lying at Quinn's Land ing, and will be brought down to Port land by rail this week. Captain Spencer will place the machinery In a powerful tugboat to be used in towing logs on the river. Work of construction on the new craft will be commenced in a few weeks. SOUTH SEA HURRICANE. Many Vessels Swept on the Rocks at Xcw Cnlcdonin. VICTORIA, B. C, March 25. The mall from Suva brings details of a great hur ricane which recently wrought much havoc in the South Pacific. The storm, which swept over New Caledonia, and especially on the East Coast, was the worst in years. Two large sailing vessels and a steamer were lost. The steamer Hero was driven on the rocks at Kou aloua, and. together with several barges, loaded with nickel, she foundered. The bark Emille Galllne was swept to dis aster on the coast at Tlhoo, and the new four-masted ship Vllle du Havre, partly loajd -nlth nickel ore, was stranded at Nou There she soon broke up. The lor. " It Is feared, was large. TongaTid Fiji also suffered, the for mer Island the more. At Xukulofa. among tho small craft wrecked was the King's yacht. The master lost his life In the attempt to save It. A good many coast vessels were wrecked on the Fljis and other damage done. The Island of Matuku was swept by a tidal wave, and over 100 houses were blown down or swept away by the Incoming waters. Many Hve3 are reported lost. COLLISION DECISION. Steamboat Inspectors Will Fix the Responsibility Tomorrow. Inspectors Edwards and Fuller will ren der a decision about Wednesday In the case of the collision of the Hercules nnd Mascot, the steamers which collided last week on the Columbia. They returned Saturday from Astoria, where they in spected the steamer Nulan. The boat Is the property of the Alaska Fishermen's Packing Company, and will be used for towing fish barges. It Is built on much the same lines as the Occident, which was recently taken to Alaska, but is a better boat. The steamer Is a propeller of about 20 tons burden. 57 feet long, and is equipped with condensing engines. It will be taken to Alaska on the bark Harry Morse. The inspectors were busy yesterday making an official survey of the steamer Hustler. The boat has undergone a gen eral overhauling. Repairs were made to the hull and machinery and she Is now as spick and-span as a new boat. Rio Jnnelro Investigation. SAN FRANCISCO. March 25. Captain C. B. Johnson was the first witness be fore the Pilot Commissioners today in their investigation of the wreck of the Rio de Janeiro. Captain Johnson piloted a ship Into the harbor the morning of the accident and his testimony was fo the effect that the tide at that time was abnormally strong and of a peculiar char acter, such as he had never before known. Pilots M. C. Erskine and Frank Murphy also testified, but nothing new was elicited. The Commissioners then took the matter under advisement. Astoria Marine "Vevrs. ASTORIA, Or., March 25. Acting Sur veyor McLean has completed the measure ments of the gasoline launch Chinook, recently built by O. P. Graham., at War renton, for G. W. Sanborn. Her dimen sions are as follows: Length, 45.6 feet; beam. 11.4 feet; depth of hold, 3.7 feet; tonnage, 14 tons, gross; 9 tons net. The Chinook will be used as a cannery-tender during the coming season. . The anchor of the British ship County of Linlithgow, which was lost in the lower harbor the day she arrived In port, was replaced on board her this morning by the wrecking steamer O. K., which had picked it up. Overdue Schooner. PHILADELPHIA, March 25. The schooner Florence, from Port of Spain, for this city. Is now more than a month overdue, and It is feared that the vessel has been lost with all on board. The Florence, In command of Captain Chand ler, sailed from Port of Spain on January 24, with a cargo of asphalt. Since that date 3he has not been spoken. J. S. Win ston & Co., of Portland, Me., are the owners of the vessel. Street Railway FranchUe Accepted. ASTORIA, March 25. Martin Foard. F. R. Stokes and Charles Page have filed with the Auditor and Police Judge their acceptance of the street railway franchise granted them by the ordinance passed by the Council a few weeks ago.

In the United States Circuit Court today Judge Morrow rendered a decision In favor of the plaintiff In the case of Charles H. Smith, of Denver, vs. the California Safe Deposit & Trust Company and C. H. King, administrator of the estate of J. W. Smitn, deceased. The suit was for 190 bonds of the California fc Nevada Railroad Com pany, of the face value of 51000 each. The plaintiff claimed that the bonds were assigned to him by his father, the late Captain J. W. Smith, shortly before the death of the latter in 1S95. They were placed with the trust company and sold In escrow. Eastern heirs filed a contest, and C. H. Smith sued to recover the bonds. Judge Morrow, In his decision, said the preponderance of testimony shows that J. W. Smith Intended that his son should receive the bonds, while the other children should have the real estate.

MMM ED.50M AVE J -i FIELD jj 3 m .P gft?N ttvr IX. II I pi 1 1 8 HI U I nx .BASE LINE ROAD j i i hi 1 v - "- EAST BURNSIDE STREET GOOD PROSPECTS OF EXTENSION TO MONTAVILLA. Surveys Hrve Already Been Made of Preliminary Linen Preparing for a Big Creamery. There Is a movement on foot to extend East Burnslde street from Its present ter minus, at East Thirtieth street, to a con nection with Edison avenue, which joins the Base Line road at MontavlUa. For this extension the city surveyors have run preliminary lines through the Ladd tract to the city boundary, the limit of the city's Jurisdiction. From that point It Ib desired that the county should se cure the further extension of the street to Davidson avenue, and thus Join Edi son, making the finest avenue extending from the Willamette River eastward. At present. East Burnslde street has no di rect outlet east of East Thirtieth 6trcet, and is tributary to the Base Line road by cross streets. Largely for this reason the Burnside-street bridge docs not secure Its rightful share of traffic. Beyond the Ladd field, there are numerous cross streets connecting with the Base Line MAP OF PROPOSED EXTENSION OF EAST BURNSIDE STREET, SHADED LINES SHOWING road, and cutting through the path of the j proposed extension of East iJurnside street. There Is a considerable popula- ! tlon and much fine property north of the I Base Line road that would benefit very j largely by this extension. After passing the Ladd field. It will be necessary to se- i cure right of way through nearly 2000 feet of land In order to reach a connec tion with Edison avenue. But the benefit to all the district would be so great that no great opposition is expected. Between East Thirtieth and East Thirty-first, some property will have to be condemned, but It is understood that arrangements will be made by whidh this will not stand in the way of the extension. The hope and expectation that the extension will final ly be accomplished are based largely on the fact that surveys have been made through the Ladd field as far as the city boundary, as It Is assumed that this would not have been done unless there were good prospects of getting through. Getting the Road Into Shape. The Portland City & Oregon Railway Company Is engaged in putting its tracks In first-class condition, preparatory to Increase in the service. At Mount Tabor, on the Hawthorne branch, a switch has been built to facilitate the handling of cars. Also, on East Eleventh street, be tween East Caruthers and Division I streets, a switch Is under construction. Near Midway, on the Mllwaukle road, the tracki are being repaired, and new ties put in wherever they are needed. Figuring on a Big Creamery. George Weatherly, the well-known creamery man, Is figuring on the erection of a large creamery building on the piles on the south side of East Morrison street, between East Third street and Union ave nue. On these piles there was formerly a large building, but It burned, leaving plies standing. Mr. Weatherly desires a large building for his plant, and i will probably be built on this old foundation. All Road Work Stopped.' For the present, all work on the county roads Is suspended until the complications over the County Commissioners have been straightened out. There is considerable work In progress on the city paths. On the Base Line road paths a great many culverts have Just been put In to carry off the water, and the paths have been regraveled. Outside of this class of work, the road supervisors are doing nothing and are waiting developments. East Side Notes. J. M. Robinson, ex-member of the Sec ond Oregon, who has been seriously 111 with rheumatism at the home of his moth er, Union avenue, has been taken to the warm springs at Wind River. His condi tion continues serious, but his friends hope he will receive beneflt from these baths. He has been sick for nearly two months. A public meeting will be held by the Sellwood Sub-Board of Trade, in Fire men's Hall, tomorrow evening, for the consideration of matters of general In terest. Already the membership has In creased to nearly 30, and others are being added to the list, and everything Indi cates that the Sellwood organization will be a strong one. The Indications are that East Burnslde street vrlll be planked from the Burnside bridge approach to East Fourteenth street with plank 4x12. Nearly enough signatures to the petition calling for this kind of Improvement have been secured, and no difficulty Is expected in securing what is needed. If the property-owners east of East Fourteenth street want the Improvement further they will have to move quickly. Dr. Wise, room 614. The Dekum. NOTICE OF EXTENSION. The O. R. fc X. Co. Complies "With the New Oregon Statute. At a meeting of the board of directors of the O. R. &. N. Co. held yesterday afternoon, a resolution was offered by Director A. L. Mills and adopted declar ing the purpose of the company to build a branch line from Alblna to St. Johns, about five miles long. This Is merely for mal action regarding a project that has been simmering for two years. The res olution was filed with the County Clerk and the Secretary of State, as required by the following law passed at the late session of the Legislature: Any railway company owning or operating a railway within the State of Oregon desiring to construct any branch line or side line, or to build an extension of the main line, shall causi to be adopted by the board of director? of such corporation & resolution defining the branch or side line or extension and desig nating the termini thereof, and shall cause a copy of such resolution, certified by its secre tary, to be filed in the office of the Secretary of State and in the offlce of each County Clerk in or through whose county such branch or side line or extension is to be constructed, and thereupon such corporation shall have the right to build and construtft branch, or side line or extension, and to exercise the right of eminent domain as la provided by law. and the termini so designated In such resolution shall be sufficient designation thereof for the purpose of exercising such right of eminent domain. This- Is the second Instance under the new law, the first notice having been filed by the Northern Pacific for Its Scappoose Plttsburg branch, nearly two weeks ago. This notice Is a prerequisite to the exer cise of the right of eminent domain the right to condemn right of way In this instance. DELAY FOR A RAILROAD. Government Slow Abont Authorizing Surrey Across Reservation. "WASHINGTON, March 21. The Interior Department seems to be In no hurry about Issuing a permit to W. C. Morris to con struct a railroad across the Colvllle In dian Reservation, Washington. Away back In the middle of the last Summer, Mr. Morris came to Washington and laid his project before the department. He remained in the city for some time, and used his very best efforts to secure an adjustment, but without avail. The de partment was afraid that this proposed road would parallel another, for which a permit had been Issued but a few months before, and. Instead of taking a map and j tracing the two lines to establish this j fact, the matter had to go through the returned to Washington this Spring, the department had not yet determined wheth er or not the right of way could be grant ed. This time Mr. Morris brought Congres sional influence to bear In his case, and at last he has been authorized to make a preliminary survey of the proposed route. which must be submitted to the depart ment. The road Is to run from Republic, northward, to the Canadian border, and is desired solely In the interest of devel oping the mining region In and about Re-, public. This preliminary survey, when made, is to be put through the "regular ! channels" of the Interior Department, which Is to say It must again be pigeon holed for another long period. It Is very doubtful If any action Is taken on this survey until Congress Is again In session and more Congressional Influence can be brought to bear to bring the case out of Its rt and secure a flnal decision. Mr. Morris' friends say that there Is no just reason for delaying this application, but this cannot be impressed upon the depart ment in a hurry. Seachrest Gets Vanderbllt Lines. The Vanderbllt lines have a new pas senger agent in Portland to succeed George H. Heusner, resigned to push a new locomotive headlight, of which he Is the inventor. He la William C. Seachrest. who for 10 years past has been assistant to V. A. Schilling. O. R. & N. city ticket agent. Mr. Seachrest, who is In San Francisco, telegraphed yesterday that he had concluded to accept the vacant place. This will reduce the force In the city of fice of the O. R. & N. to three men Agent Schilling and Assistants George Schalk and George B. Maxwell who are capable of handling the business for the prceent. Indeed, before this month there were only three men In the office. Mr. Seachrest began his career as a rail road man as clerk in the Kansas City ticket office of the Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad in 1876. He was city ticket agent of the Burlington at Atchison and Omaha, and general agent at Kansas City till 1S90. when he came to Portland as as sistant to V. A. Schilling, In the employ of the Union Pacific, and when the syetem was broken up the Portland offlce was given over to the O. R. & N. He retained his position with Increasing popularity until the better opportunity presented itself, and all his associates rejoice in his good fortune. Low Fares for Free Masons. For the annual meeting of Masonic or ders In Portland, June 10-15, a rate of one and one-third fare on the certificate plan Is authorized by the O. R. &. N. Co. to Portland and return, provided, however, 50 or more paying passengers of not less than 50 cents shall have been In attend ance. Under these conditions delegates or members of delegates' families that pay full fare to Portland will be returned at one-third fare (but In no case less than 25 cents), on or before June IS. If the total attendance shall not equal the re quirements, holders of certificates will be sold return tickets at regular one-way rate. Appeal in Telegraph Suit. ST. PAUL, March 25. A decree and order has been filed by Judge Lochern. in the United States Circuit Court, allow ing an appeal In the case of the SL Paul, Minneapolis &. Manitoba Railroad, now the Great Northern, against the West ern Union and Northwestern Telegraph Companies. The original suit was brought to ascertain the ownership of certain telegraph lines put up along the old St. Paul & Pacific Railroad, which subse quently passed to the Great Northern. The decree in the case allowed both com panies' rights and the appeal is taken by the railroad company. Surveying In Manitoba. GRAND FORKS. N. D., March 25. A Northern Pacific engineering force Is sur veying a route from Winnipeg to Bemlji. The Northern Pacific bought the Bralncrd &. Northern last year. A party left Beml ji several weeks ago, and Is now 70 miles north of that place. The proposed exten sion will shorten the distance between Duluth and Winnipeg some 200 miles. It is generally believed that the Northern Pacific will not build through to Winni peg, but will connect with the McKenzIe Mann road at some point near the bound ary. California Freight via Hill's Line. SEATTLE, March 25. The steamship Umatilla arrived tonight from San Fran cisco with 400,000 pounds of California oranges, representing the first shipment East over the Great Northern Railroad. The fruit was transferred to a train of 14 cars, which will start for St. Paul and Chicago at S A. M. Tuesday. Railroad Notes. General Freight and Passenger Agent Markham, of the Southern Pacific, reached ' home Sunday, after a week's visit In San Francisco. General Passenger Agent Craig, of the O. R. & N., accompanied the Chicago mer chants as far as Mountain Home, Idaho, on their return East last week, and he re turned home Sunday. By a change of time to go Into effect on the O. R. & N. next Thursday, March 2S, the train from Chicago which arrives in Portland at S:40 A. M. will arrive half an hour earlier, S:10.
