Leon Hauser, aged 1G years, formerly an -elevator operator In the Oregonlan building. Is missing, and his disappear ance is the cause of much anxiety on the part of his relatives. To Captain of Po lice Moore, late yesterday afternoon, O. 1. Chapel, step-father of the boy, de clared his belief that some evil has be fallen him, or that he has shipped on some vessel. According to Mr. Chapel's report to Cap tain Moore, Leon talked a great deal of going to sea, and is said to have spent a good deal of time along the water front. It is feared he may have fallen over board, or, if he is alive, that he has signed aboard one of the many ships in the harbor for a sea voyage. "We are greatly worried over the boy's disappearance," said Mr. Chapel, at po Jlce headquarters. "He has not been seen since October 2, at which time he was in the Oregonlan building, chatting with the elevator operators, with whom he worked for a long time. He quit his post tion there in July to attend the Behnke "Walker Business College. He was of a romantic turn of mind, and thought he would like to .go to sea. He talked a great deal of that, and he may have gone. We fear that he may have fallen over board, however, and are anxious for news of him." A description of the boy, as furnished the police, follows: Age, 16 years; height, 5 feet 11 Inches; slender build; thin Hps; large ears; light, wavy hair; gray eyes; long arms; quiet and unassuming. Immediately upon receipt of the infor mation. Captain Moore instituted an in vcstlgation. ONE PASSENGER IS HURT .Arthur "Wood Badly Bruised in a Street-Car Collision. In a collision between car No. 150, on the Woodstock branch of the Portland Con solidated system, and tripper No. 42, on the same line, Arthur Wood was hurled to the ground and received Injuries more or less serious, and. many passengers were shaken up. The accident occurred at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, at Grand avenue and Morrison street. Soon after the collision, Dr. A. C. Pan ton, physician for the company, took charge of the Injured man, who was re moved to his home in Center Addition, "on the Montavllla division. The victim was in great pain, and his head, caused him much distress. He was unable to 4le down, and It also troubled him to stand or walk. He was badly bruised, but there were no bones broken, according to Dr. Panton. At the time of the accident, both cars were crowded. The tripper was following close behind the leader, and rammed It on the curve at Grand avenue and Mor rison street. The collision was severe, and knocked Woods from the rear plat form of the forward car. It was the fall to the ground that injured him. There was considerable excitement for a time, especially among the women passengers, but order -was sbon restored. Surprise was expressed by some who saw the collision, because, as they said, of the dangerous practice in vogue in Portland of cars following each other so closely. SUBMITS FERRY ORDINANCE City Engineer, of St. Johns,vPrepares Contract With Company. City Engineer Greene submitted to the St. Johns Council last evening a care fully prepared ordinance granting a fran chise to the St. Johns Ferry Company to operate a ferry for ten years, this being the company formed by J. E. Brink and John D. Mann, who made the applica tion for tho franchise. The ordinance was read the first time, and then passed to the street committee for further con sideration, and it will not be placed on its final passage under 60 days. The City Attorney said he had made .the matter a thorough study, and safeguarded the in terests of the people as closely as the charter provided. All the conditions and requirements are set forth In the ordi nance, so that tho people may see Just what they are. It is provided that- the grantee shall construct and maintain at its own cost an elevated roadway the full width of Pittsburg street between the O. R. &. N. Railway and the Willamette River during the life of the franchise, and that within SO days from the passage of the ordinance have a temporary ferry in operation of sufficient capacity to accommodate the public, and within 12 months have a ferry running similar to the ones used at Al blna. The ferry shall run between 6 A. M. and 7 P. M., and shall transport free of charge all gravel and rock for the im provement of the streets of St. Johns. Following are the mlxlmum rates for ferriage: Foot passenger 5 cents; single teams, 25 cents; double teams or three horses, 35 cents; automobiles, 25 cents; saddle horses, 10 cents each. The ferry company shall pay the city 24 per cent of the gross receipts from said ferry. payments to be made monthly during: the life of the franchise.' The company Is re quired to Ttcep a book of accounts and make quarterly reports to the City Re corder, which shall show in detail all re ceipts and expenditures, and the Recorder can examine at any time tho books and accounts of the grantee. For securing efficient service, for prompt, complete compliance with Its agreements, and for the continued main tenance by the company of the property in good repair, the company is required to. give the city a $1000 bond. The Coun cil reserves the right to regulate in the public interest the exercise of this fran chise and rights thereunder. The fran chise is considered a valuable one, and while the ferry may not pay for the first six months, it Is believed that It will ro r-ris arrant trofflo IncMo rf ft VPr Last month theSellwood ferry did a large business, averaging on some days as high as 40 automobiles for the montn, WW teams and between 5000 and G000 foot pas sengers. There may be changes In the first draft of the ordinance before It is finally. passed. i s TO INQUIRE INTO DELAY OVER . MEMORIAL COLUMN. Appoints Committees to Inquire Into Offers for Sale of Statuary and Wild Animals. The question of monuments figured con spicuously in the deliberations of the Park Board yesterday morning, and the Lewis and Clark Corporation came in for a large share of attention In consequence of having failed to complete the job of erecting a memorial column in the City Park to the famous explorers, as agreed upon. Wrhen President Roosevelt was here, a couple of years ago. Impressive ceremonies were held "at the laying of the cornerstone of the Lewis and Clark monument, but since then the Idea has become lost In the whirl of other attrac tions. Ion Lewis and Rev. Thomas L. Eliot were appointed a committee to con fer with the Fair Commission on the "Subject. The monument in honor of those mem bers of the Second "Oregon Volunteers who died In the Philippines also came up for consideration. Sometime ago public spirited local citizens subscribed several thousand dollars to a fund for the erec tion of a suitable monument to the mem ory of the dead In the North Plaza block, but it also has drifted Into a lapsed state, for some reason or other, and yesterday the Park Board decided to take immediate action. With that object In view. Auditor Devlin was directed to communicate with Colonel Jackson, chairman of the citizens' committee, and report to the board at its next meeting. A communication was received from P. Rossi and J. Zegglo, the Italian Commis sioners to the Lewis and Clark Exposi tion, offering for sale a monumental mar ble fountain, surmounted by a bronze fig ure representing an angel; a reproduction of an antique Roman bathtub In Carrara marble, which could be used as an im mense jardiniere, and a trlplo represented by three bronze fauns supporting a mar ble basin. The Italian commissioners set forth that these three articles were conceived and modeled 6y Sculptor R. Romanclli, of Italy, professor of the Royal Academy, of Florence, who Is described as one of. the greatest artists of that country- The statuary was sent here, from the St. Louis Exposition, where It- is' claimed 11 'was awarded the grand prize. On account of the heavy expense in volved In shipping them back to Italy, tqe commissioners offered them to the Park Board at a bargain, and Messrs. Eliot and Lewis were appointed a committee to In vestigate the matter. B. Lee Paget was given a vote of thanks for donating to the Park four African geese now at the Fair grounds. L. L. Hawkins reported, that at the Jabour collection of animals at the Fair grounds were an exceptionally fine speci men of African Hon, leopard and polar bear for sale. Commissioners Hawkins and Meyer were appointed .a committee to Investigate the feasibility of purchasing the animals. The expenses of the Park for October were estimated at J12&6.40.

SEAMANSHIP SAVES VESSEL Lacking Motive Power and AVlth .Rudder Gone, Twice-Wrecked Lightship Goes on Shore. In No Serious Danger. ASTORIA, Or.. Oct. 6. (Special.) Co lumbia River lightship. No. 50, the vessel that made the famous overland trip across McKenzle Head a few years ago. Is again In trouble. This time she lies hard aground on the sand beach of the river a short distance inside Capo Disappoint ment light, and the fact that she was not totally wrecked and that nono of the members of her crew was Injured Is due to good luck, coupled with the excellent seamanship of her master. Captain Joseph Hani man. About 4:30 this morning, when the wind was blowing at a rate of fully SO miles an hour, the lightship parted her mooring chain and went adrift. As the gale was from the southwest. Captain Harrlman, lacking motive power, was unable to run the vessel offshore, so he set sail and headed her for the mouth of the river, in tending to drive her inside over the break ing bar. Just as the lightship was cross ing the bar her rudder was carried away. Drifting practically helpless, the vessel was driven toward Peacock Spit, on the north side of the river entrance. Into what appeared to be 'certain destruction. As she struck the spit the seas washed clear over her, but a big breaker carried her across the sands, tearing away her rolling chocks and keel, then across the Inside channel, and finally, about 8 o'clock this morning, landed her head on, on the srtnd beach midway between Cape. Disappoint ment light and the east battery at Fort Canby. Captain Stuart and the Cape Disappoint ment llfcsaving crew went to her assist ance as quickly as possible, but, owing to the heavy seas running, they were un able to reach the vessel with their boats. After two attempts a line was shot on board and the members of the lightship's crew were brought safely ashore in breeches buoys. The vessel stands upright tmd is rest ing easily. At low water she is high and dry. but at high tide tho seas pound her heavily, It Is thought she can be floated readily by kedging her Into Baker's Bay If work is commenced on her immediately, before she makes a bed In the sand. In striking whero she did the lightship was bpth fortunate and unfortunate. Had she struck a few hundred feet farther out she would have hit a ledge of rocks that would have soon knocked he rto nieces. while had her course been a hundred feet farther up the river she would have slid Into deep water In the Baker's Bay chan nel. As soon as the accident was renortud the tug Tatoosh and the lighthouse tender uoiumoine were hastened down, but, ow ing to the rough seas, they could not an- proach near enough to render any assist. anceThe Point Adams llfesavlng crew aiso went, out ana stood by the lightship uniu every one was saieiy ashore. 31AY RECOVER THE VESSEX- Stormy Career of Wrecked Lightship Maj- Be Prolonged.

After several attempts to float her, the result was accompiisnea Dy tne unique method of moving her two miles overland. Just as a house is moved. The lightship resumed service on August 0, ana nas since occupied her sta tion continuously. She has been under the command of Captain J. H. Harrlman for the last six years, her total crew numbering II. Her exact position Is given as 7 miles S. S. W., a; S. from Cape Dis appointment lighthouse.

With the breaking of mis cnain, as on yesterday, and the lack oi power against tne wmas ana current, the vessel could do nothing hut r!fr nnA could only be saved through excellent sea- mansnip.
