A party detailed by Cily Engineer Elliott yesterday 1egan taking soundings along the channel of the Willamette for a mile above and half a mile belo'w the Morrf-fon-street bridge, preparatory to prepar ing the map which must be submitted to the United States Engineers and be ap proved by the "War Department before the work of constructing a new bridge at Morrison street can be besun. The party Is in charge of John R, Hansen, and Is furnished with a good big rowboat. tran sit, sextant and all apparatus necessary to secure data for preparing a map show ing the topography of the bottom of the river as exactly as if It were dry land. It will not be practicable to use any chain men, as the water Is ?0 feet in depth on the ground to bo charted. This work will "be no small Job. Flnit. soundings will be taken to And where the channel is, this being a point In which the Government is particularly Interested Then cork floats, with small flags, will be put out to ascer tain the exact course of the current. The harbor lines and wharf lines will also have to be laid out a'nd In the end the whole platted on a snail scale. This will take three or four weeks, probably, and the map when completed will be submit ted to Captain Lanirfltt, "United States Engineer, for his approval. The city au thorities have but little doubt as to the plans for the new bridge at Morrison street being approved by the Government, as the piers are to be located farther apart, thus giving a trider opening for the passage of vessels. ?he water Is so deep that shipping will not be impeded. In order to be certain that no harm can come to navigation by the construction of the proposed new bridge, the Government re quires the survey and chart to be made. Mazamas to Hold Hetjniox.

Beach, who raised them on his place at Arbor Lodge, in this city. All who have seen them admit that they take "the prune cake, as far as size and weight are con cerned.

Anxioub to Have Street Bridge Re paired. A large number of property-own- j ers are very anxious to have the bridge on East Eighth ' street, between East Caruthers and Clinton streets, which aas Just been closed, put in order as soon as possible, as East Eighth, street is an im portant thoroughfare. They will prob ably apply to the Council for assistance in this matter, as the Job will be Quite an expensive one, the cost being more than the City Engineer has any idea that the Executive Beard will be willing to appro priate out of their limited street repair fund. The bridge Is 570 feet long, and the roadway is 36 feet in width. The roadway planking is badly worn, and the; super structure, wnicn is 3t teet in height, needs some repairs. The new roadway will require about 2,000 feet of 35-foot Dlanks. which cost 114.50 per thousand. amounting to $11$. Thirteen kegs of spikes will cost $39, and labor 400. making the total cost of the new roadway H62S. The property-owners are probably" correct in the idea that the Executive Board will decline to draw on the limited street re pair fund for the sum necessary to put this bridge in order, and they will hasten to ask the Council for assistance before others in the same situation apply.

MONEY SYSTEM FOR CHINA France and Rnrtalo. "Would. Benin on Sllve-r Baal sd Work up to Gold. PARIS, Aug., 2C The report of the French Commission appointed to confer with the United States Monetary Ex change Commissioners has been delivered to Ambassador Porter. It contains a note from Foreign Minister Dclcasse saying France Is not prepared to express bind lng conclusions until she has consulted with the powers. The report Indorses the principle of a gold standard for China and other silver-using countries, but it points out that the plan is possible only under judicious control of the coinage by the government and the creation of an ade quate gold reserve. It favors a coinage ratio for the Orient, fixlnsr the face value of silver slightly above its bullion vallue, similar to the American system in the Philippines. The French commission makes reserva tion upon the proposed regular purchase of sliver, on the ground that it is Impos sible to foresee the country's need for subsidiary and colonial coinage. Semi-official advices from Russia Indi cate that the commission appointed by Finance Minster Wltte has adopted a similar conclusion. The French and Rus sians considerlt preferable to establish a uniform system in China by beginning on a silver basis and afterward raising it to a fixed gold value, than to begin on a gold standard immediately.

"Watery Grave Eluding her watchful sister, -Mrs. Han nah Molander slipped from, the residence of S. Peterson, S59 Michigan avenue Sun day night and was forced by a demented mind to end her life by casting herself Into a slough near the Portland flouring mills. The body, floating face downwards. was found yesterday afternoon by Mrs. J. Millard and her two little daughters. Mrs. Molander was the wife of Andrew Molander, of La Center. Wash. She was brought to the home of her sister. Mrs. Peterson, last Tuescay, and was then known to be suffering from a mild form of insanity. The Petersons watched her carefully though they did not fear she would make any atempt upon her life. Sunday evening Mrs. Molander made a number of efforts to get the Petersons out of the way for a time. Finally she succeeded and faking the best of the op portunity slipped from a rear door and vanished In the growing darkness. The police were at once notified of the disappearance of the demented woman and the patrolmen of the East Side were in structed to be on the watch for her. Noth ing was seen of Mrs. Molander, however, until her body was discovered yesterday afternoon by Mrs. J. Millard, who with two little girls was walking along the bank of the slough midway between the new dry dock Bite and the Portland flour ing mills. Preparatory to casting herself Into the muddy water. Mrs. Molander had removed her hat and black jacket. These lying upon the low bank were the first evidences of he suicide. "When Mrs. Millard saw the clothes she looked over the slough more carefully and at once saw the body of Mrs. Molander floating upon the water, 12 feet from the bank. Supported by the air in her clothes the body of the self-slain woman had not sunk below the surface since she threw nerseii headlong from the bank, presumably Sun day night. The slough Is not more tnan a mile from the house on Michigan avenue, but in a neighborhood little frequented by any one, so the floating body thus escaped notice until yesterday. Coroner Flnley was at once notified ana took charge of the remains. The funeral will be held this afternoon from the Flnley chanel. The Interment will be In Green wood cemetery, where Mrs. Molanders father and former husband, D. F. Jacob- sen, are burled. Mrs. Hannah Molander was 06 years oia. Her mother. Mrs. Carlton, lives at S50 Corbett street. Coroner Flnley made a thorough Inves tigation of tho case and was satisfied that the woman nad committed suiciae. o in quest will therefore be held.

During a severe thunder storm the resi dence of Johnson Cleveland at this olace was struck by lightning and set on fire. The electric bolt struck the roof and went through Into the parlor, where it shat tered a studding between two windows and passed through the floor Into the ; ground. The windows were not Injured, but the Inside of the room was soon In flames, and considerable damage was done to the building and furniture before the ' fire was extinguished. Mrs. Cleveland was i alone In another part of the house, but was unaware that anything had happened until neighbors come to put out the fire. Such a small hole was made In the roof by the lightning that It could scarcely be found, but the west wall of the building was badly damaged. The building was Insured in the McMlnnvllle Company, which promptly adjusted the loss and paid tho damages, although It does not insure against lightning. Such freaks of the elements are very rare here, this being tho flrst of the kind ever known in this vicinity, although trees are sometimes struck by lightning during such electrical disturbances. Tlemakexs Dissatisfied. ' The tie mills of Eastern Multnomah County are all running again -and deliver ing their products at Troutdale, but their cwners are dissatisfied with the small victory the railroad companies -gained over them last month when they were all shut down for several weeks. The price of ties was reduced from 30 cents to 2S cents, delivered at Troutdale. and there is & feeding that the price should bo restored to its old figure. All the mills, 14 In num ber, belong to the Columbia River Tie and Lumber Association, with headquar ters In Portland, and a concerted move ment is on foot to bring the railroad com panies to terms. A representative of the association has been visiting the mills of tills vicinity, and there is a probability that another market will be looked for un less a better figure Is obtained for the ties manufactured by the mills, of the association. It is the intention to ship the ties to California, either by rail or on the sailing vessels, unless the old prices are restored by the O. R. & N. Co., which has been taking all tho product up to the present time. It is said that cheap freights can be se cured by water and that there is an un limited market for all tics that can be made. Much Grain Dnmnged. Much damage is being done to grain In the' shock- by tho vonU-iued shoufexy weather Uncut fields are not -damaged to any great extent, and threshing ma chines are at work wherever the grain has been stacked. Late fields that had not ripened yet are improving and should yield better than early-sown crops if the weather comes off hot again". Remembered by His Friends. David Brown, formerly of Rockwood. but now living at Lexington, was one of the sufferers by the Heppner disaster. He belongs to three fraternal orders, each of which sent him money from their relief fund. He was given JS0 in all, the lodges preferring that he should have their dona tions to having It put in a Portland bank along with the unexpended balance con tributed by others. ACKNOWLEDGMENT.

First of all our thanks to the brave men who risked their lives In the treacherous element to save the life of, to them a strangcrr but to us the sun of our lives, C C. Spencer, of Oregon City, Charles A. Burden and John Straub, of Eugene, and N. Bush, of Salem. Though not success ful, their efforts lose nono of their merit. We also wish to thank the people of Newport, who, headed by their noble Mayor. Mr. Irvine did all In their power to lighten our grief by their assistance and to the ladles who took care of the be reaveci mother and sister, and to the watchers and searchers at the 6hore. who, headed by Mr. Gault, of Hillsboro. succeeded In recovering the body, and to Edward stone and his courteous employes of the c : rj. it. it. ror their kind as sistance.
