14 IID FACILITATE COAST SHIPPING Masters and Pilots Ask for a Night Collector of Cus . toms at Astoria. SEND PETITION TO ROBB Steamers Plying -Out or Portland Are Said to Be Unavoidably De layed With the System Trial Js Now in Vogvc. riJols and shipmasters- plying out of this port Jire taking jstcps further to ..fa cilitate the handling of coastwise traffic lay asking: for the appointment of a nijrht CuBtom-housc official at Astoria. A com munication will be addressed to Collector of Customs W. L. Robb. at Astoria, re questing him to use his influence for the appointment of a deputy to remain on watch during the night, so that vessels arriving 'or departing after office hours can be entered or cleared without the captain or pilot having to run about the city looking -up -one of the Collectors, which system is now in vogue at tho city by the sea. Coastwise shipping Is being caused con siderable detention, the customs collectors at Astoria are being annoyed, and ship masters and pilots are put to a great deal of unpleasant work by reason of there be ing no night man to receive or Issue the necessary papers for the craft that make Astoria a port of call. Vc should have had a night man at Astoria long ago." said one of the pilots yesterday, in speaking of the petition which is now.belne circulated among the interests concerned. "Coastwise shipping is being detained a great deal by reason of there being no deputy on duty after the closing of the office at night or before it opens at 9 in the morning. A largo majority of the steamers plying between Portland and California ports reach As toria at night, both going and coming, and then either the captain or the pilot has to hustle around for one of the col lectors to have the papers passed upon. Sometimes vessels get in late, and it is not at all pleasant to have to drag the collector out of bed for tKe sake of ac commodating the steamship people. "Tho collectors never complain, but we feel that they are being Imposed upon, inasmuch as they get no pay for night work. Xot seldom does it happen that the skipper of one vessel will disturb the peaceful slumbers of a collector, and no sooner has lie returned to bed before an other navigator will drop around and tear down the house to secure a permit to pro ceed. "Nearly all of the vessels running out of Portland stop at Astoria to pick up passengers and freight, -and this makes it necessary for thorn to clear there, not withstanding the fact that they have pa pers from the office in Portland." The petition to Collector Robb reads as follows: The master and pIlotB plying between Astoria and Portland beg of you to use your Influence In during a night Custom-Houee man at Astoria to clear in and out-bound easels now plying out of the Columbia River. TV deem It an absolute necessity that there be a Custom-House man on duty a i night In order to more facilitate the handling or the shipping. Many signatures have already been af fixed to the petition. CONDITIONS IN JAPAN. Officers or Oriental Liner Numantia Bring Interesting Reports, Captain Feldmann and the officers of the Oriental liner Numantia. which ar rived yesterday morning, bring some in teresting reports concerning recent events In China and Japan. The plague, they say, was still claiming occasional victims in Kobe when they were there, and a number of deaths from starvation were recorded in the northeast of the islands. Theft, burglary and highway robbery are nald to be rapidly increasing in the famine-stricken districts, despite the fact that public works are being rapidly organized with the object of giving employment to The people. The hardships of the desti tute have been Intensified by the cold and the snowfall. Largo numbers of Japanese troops are returning daily from the battlefields of Manchuria, and the harbors of Kobe and Hoji present busy scenes. Two ofilcors of the Norwegian steamer Thyra, which is well known in this port, were heavily fined at Hongkong recentlv for having abetted a number of Japanese women to stow away on the steamer. The women, 17 all told, were captured after iin5 Vecn ,anded safel' at Hongkong, and their capture led to the arrest of the two officers and four of the Chinese crew. wc COOLIES GOT WET. Oriental Liner Numantia Shipped Big Sea Off Japan. Officers of the Oriental liner Numantia relate that when the liner was a- few days off the Japanese coast on her out ward voyage from Portland she shipped an enormous sea that broke the ports In the bow and set everything in the foc'sal afloat. One coolie was caught and car ried on the crest of a wave across the A-essel and dashed against the rail with' such force that one leg was broken and he was otherwise severely bruised. The first officer set the injured limb and. by the time the steamer reached Hong kong the coolie was able to participate in the New Year ' celebration going on there. The experience was enough for him, however, and he left his position for life on shore. STEAMER DORA REACHES PORT Blown Off Her Course and Given "Op as Lost. VICTORIA. B. C.

HAS HI WITH EURT Tommy Burns Kills His Claim to Championship. KNOCKS HIM ALL OVER RING Chicago Man Makes the Pretended Champion Look Like Clumsy Novice, .and Gets Decision ' In Twentieth Round. LOS ANGELES. Cal., Feb. 23. By thoe who took Marvin Hart's claim to the world's championship title Fcriously, Tommy Bums, of Chicago, may now be considered the heavyweight champion.' Burns decisively outpointed Hart tonight at the Pacific Athletic Club pavilion, and MARVIN' llART IX 20 ROUNDS. was given the decision at the end of the 29th round. From start to finish, with the possible exception of the 10th and 12th rounds, when Hart had a very small advantage. Burns outfought the bigger man, outgen eraled him and beat him at every point in the game of boxing. At times Burns, although greatly handicapped in weight and height, made Hart look like a novice. Burns Keeps Blood Flowing. In the opening round Burns was very nervous and lacked confidence After this, however, be quickly sized Hart up and began a systematic attack on his lace and body with straight lefts. In the third round he started the blood Sowing from Hart's nose, and kept it running In almost every round thereafter. In the fifth round Burns cut Hart over the right eye, and in the following rounds battered the optic until it was closed. The left eye also was badly marked, and Hart's face presented a bloody sight practically throughout the fight. Hart failed to show any sort of cham pionship form. His persistent attempt to rough it in the clinches earned the disap proval of the crowd which appeared to be with Burns almost to a man. Burns' Style of Attack. Burns' style of attack was to shoot his left to the face or the body and step in side of Hart's swings, allowing them to go around his neck or ducking them en tirely. Hart simply could not land on Burns, and toward the latter part of the fight tried hard to- rough it and wear Burns out by using his weight in the clinches. The fight was tiresome, one round being much like the preceding and following ones. In the Hth round Burns appeared to have a chance to knock Hart out. He caught the bigger man a right and left on the Jaw that sent him staggering for a moment. Quickly sclxing his advantage. Burns hammered Hart about the face and head until he forced him to cover up and give ground. Hart Vainly Tries for Knockout. In the last few rounds, seeing the tide of battle going against him. Hart, urged by his chief second. Tommy Ryan, tried desperately to corner his quick-witted op ponent and administer a knockout. Every attempt failed, however, and every rout d increased Bums' lead. Hart weighed about 133 pounds, while Burns weighed 175 pounds. Jack CTwin) Sullivan was Burns chief second. The betting was 2 to 1 in Hart's favor, and even money that Hart would win in ten rounds.

XjTJCAS PLANS XIPPED IX BUD Effort to Get Portland Into Xorlli- west League -Pails. A concerted effort on the part of W. H. Lucas and his cohorts, the advo cates of the Pacific National League, to disrupt the Pacific Coast League by securing the desertion of the Northern clubs, Seattle and Portland, with the idea of having them join an outlaw organisation, has been nipped in the bud. The Lucas crowd have availed them selves of the recent outburst of the new owner of the San Francisco club, Andy Clunie, who came out with a tirade against the National agreement owing to the refusal of the Bostoxr Americans to sell Charlie Graham to his club, and imagining that the in experienced Clunie voiced tho senti ments of the other Coast League clubs, the Northwest League advocates thought it possible at one concerted effort t ally Portland and Seattle with their league. Agents were seat slmaitaneously to Portland and Seattle, where the im pression was given eut to the effect that each of these cities were anxious to embrace the proposition, and would sent. Proof Ntht such a deal was or ganized is established by the fact that simultaneous publication of dispatches In the papers -of Tacoraa, Seattle and Spokane, purporting to come from Portland, and m which the McCrcdles are said to favor the proposed with drawal. Tne following telegram received by Judge W. W. McCredle from J. P. Ag new, business manager of the Seattle club, denotes that overtures were made to that club to Join the move: Seattle. "Wash-, Feb. 21. W. TV. McCredle, Portland. Or.: Have been offeree our guarantee fund In the Pa cific Coast League if wc will form a Northwest League. Clunic's attitude in favor of outlaw baseball has brought tho proposition. "What Is your" advice? J. P. AGNEW." Judge McCredle replied that under no circumstances -would he join the outlaw promoters. The all-pcrvadlng desire of the Pa cific National League promoters is to get Portland and' Seattle Into the fold, for they well know that it is impos sible to give Spokane and the rest of their circuit the class- of ball desired without the support of these two Coast League cities. Judge McCredle's reply nips their hopes in the bad. for Seattle will not take the Jump alone, and besides the prespects of that club in this league for the coming season are of the brightest. The means used to attain the end desired by Lucas shows to what an extent they will go to further their plans. Only the steadfast refusal of the local magnates prevented the con summation of the projected Jump, for had McCredle sent a favorable reply to Agncw's query, the long-cherished dream of the Lucas crowd would have materialized.
