FEAR RAILWAY PUR
Push Clubs Discuss Southern
Pacific Bridge.
CENTRAL BODY'S POSITION
Gms on Record as Opposing Anv
Structure Not Providing for the
Streetcar and General Traf
fic Across the River.
The United Bast Side Push Clubs passed
a resolution at their meeting last night
declaring that no bridge shall hereafter
be built across the Willamette River that
does not provide for both streetcar and
general traffic. This resolution was the
result of the announcement made by M.
G. Griffin to the effect that the Harrlman
interests owned a bridge franchise at
Flanders street on both sides of the river,
and that he had been informed that the
companies were contemplating the erec
tion of a railroad bridge at Klanders
street without streetcar facilities. Mr.
Griffin said that he had made some
investigation and had ascertained that
structural Iron for a railroad bridge was
now being accumulated on the East Side
on the grounds of the Southern Pacific.
He said he had seen this material. It
was marked "E. P.' and he believed it
was for a railroad bridge at Flanders
street.
Mr. Griffin remarked further that he
had ascertained that In 1872 Ben Holladay
obtained a charter for a bridge at this
point and that it had been renewed every
ten years since, the last time In 1902.
This information was entirely new to the
club,, except to R. E. Menefee, of the
North East Side Improvement Associa
tion, who had heard It hinted that a
bridge somewhere else than at Holladay
avenue might be built. The matter was
considered of sufficient Importance to in
vestigate. Frank Sinnott, H. H. Prouty
and M. G. Griffin were appoinetd to in
vestigate the matter.
It was announced at the meeting that
the Southern Pacific had purchased much
property on the West Side near Gllnan
street and the gas plant, besides it was
known that the Harrlman interests would
like to get rid of the upper deck of the
railroad bridge, but cannot do so on ac
count of Its charter. It might avoid this
provision by building at Flanders street.
Mr. Menefee said that two plans for re
building and remodeling the railroad
bridge had been prepared; one was to
build near by and let the present bridge
take care of the traffic while the new
structure was being built.
The clubs indorsed f;e movement for a
bridge north of Sullivan's Gulch by adopt
ing the following resolution from R. fci.
Menefee:
Whereas, the North East Side Im
provement Association proposes as one
of its chief alms .to secure a high
bridge for that portion of the East
Side north of Sullivan's Gulch, said
bridge to extend from the foot of Han
cock street to a suitable terminus on
the west side of the Willamette River;
and.
Whereas, such a bridge is an imme
diate, urgent necessity for the accom
modation of all the people of the East
Side; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of
United East Side Clubs that the North
East Side Improvement Association Is
entitled to the sympathy and active
support of all of the East Side clubs
In this undertaking.
fX R- Helnts. Joseph Buchtel, R. B.
Menefee and W. I,. Boise were appointed
to confer with the officials of the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Company
about the operating of "trippers" for
the East SieW when travel Is heavy. This
committee also was empowered to take
up all streetcar questions.
M. La Dagget, of the City Crematory,
talked on the advantage of the city col
lecting the garbage. He said It would
cost about J77.MO the first year to pro
vide wagons and gather up the garbage,
but thereafter the cost would be about
$40,000. to be paid for by general taxation.
The united clubs declared In favor of the
city collecting all garbage and making
provisions therefor.
It was decided to hold regular meetings
the second and fourth Tuesday of each
month, hereafter. Secretary Rlesland re
signed, to take effect at the next meeting.

FIXING THE BLAME
Inspectors Make Inquiry Into
Asuncion-Jones Collision.
TESTIMONY IS ALL TAKEN
Pilot Turner, of the Asuncion, Stat
ed That He Blew One Whistle and
Put His Helm to Port Offi
cers Corroborate His Story.
Local Inspectors Edwards and Fuller
conducted an investigation yesterday for
the purpose of fixing the blame for the
collision between the steamship Asuncion
and the river steamer F. B. Jones at
Mount Coffin, on the Columbia River Sun
day night. Pilot Joseph Turner, of the
Asuncion, Captain George E. Brldgett,
master of the Asuncion; Captain Walter
Russel, of the Jones, and a number of
the members of the crew of each craft
were examined. The testimony went to
show that the Asuncion was slow In an
swering her helm but otherwise acted In
accordance with all rules of the road and
navigation.
The examination of witnesses was con
cluded at 3 o'clock and the Asuncion was
released on bond. Owners of the steamer
F. B. Jones libeled the oil-carrier and
Captain Bridgett filed a bond for the re
lease of the steamer. She will leave down
this morning and the matter will be re
sumed on her return to Portland.
Pilot Turner testified that he- ordered

the helm hard aport when he noticed that
the Jones was bearing down on the Asun
cion. The Asuncion did not respond as
rapidly as she should. He ordered half
speed, slow, and then full speed astern.
The third assistant engineer of the oil
carrier stated that he received orders for
half speed, slow, full speed ahead and
full speed astern. People familiar with
marine telegraph systems know that It is
customary to throw the lever clear for
ward before passing the order. This Is
done to give the engineer an opportunity
to regulate his fires.
The testimony of .Captain Russell, of the
Jones, was conflicting. He made a state
ment tout beyond the fact that the Jones
blew the first passing signal It was of
no Importance. The sailor of the Asun
cion who was on lookout, and the quarter
master on watch both testified that the
pilot gave the proper order (hard aport)
after the passing signal was blown.
A feature of the Investigation yesterday
whs the taking of the testimony in short
hand. This greatly facilitated the work.
Heretofore tne official clerk of the board
took the testimony on a machine. This
process made the case drag for several
days longer than necessary. The resume
of the case will not be ready for publlca-
Uon for at least a week.
STORMY TRIP TJP THE COAST
Dredge Pacific Reaches Grays Har
bor in Leaking Condition.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Nov. 26. (Spe
cial.) A large fleet which has been held
at Westport by the terrific wind and sea
the past few days got away today. The
steamer Chehalls went to Hoqulam this
morning to load what Is needed to com
plete her cargo.
The dredge Pacific, which was towed
here from San Pedro, Is in drydock for
repairs. Of the trip up the coast in tow
of the Chehalls, Chief Engineer O'Hare,
of the Pacific, says:
"I have been going to sea for 21 years
and this trip with the Pacific Is the
worst I ever experienced. I had below
only 11 men, not one of them ever hav
ing made a sea trip before. We broke
loose from the Chehalls the first time
down south of Monterey and the second
time at this bar.
"Had I not taken precaution to have
stenni up at the time we struck the
bar here, we would have gone to pieces,
for It would have been Impossible to
have picked up the dredge. As it wTas,
we came in under our own steam and
were not picked up until we were two
miles inside the harbor. The dredge
leaked fearfully all the way up the
coast, and frequently I was drenched
while standing In the engine-room by
water which shot In through the crevices
as the ship heaved."
SPECIFICATION'S ON HAND
Bids Will Be Asked for the Con
struction of a Dredge.
Specifications for the construction of a
dredge for use In the harbors on the
Oregon and Washington Coasts, have been
received at the office of the United States
Engineers. Bids will he asked for this
week. The specifications and bids are
In accordance with the appropriation of
the last rivers and harbors bill and will
utilize the $100,000 appropriated at that
time.
The dredge will be about 130 feet long
and 30 feet beam. She will have an 18
inoh hydraulic suction and will be built
on the general plan of the dredge Port
land, of the Port of Portland. The latter
craft has a 20-inch suction. It Is the In
tention of the engineers to have a craft
which can be towed from port to port on
the coast between Flattery and Coos Bay.
Concert for Sailors Tonight.
Sailors' chanties, sung by crews from
various ships in the harbor, will be the
feature of the weekly conoert for sail-
ors to be given at the Seamen's Insti
tute tonight. George S. Shepherd will

Elder Arrives From South.
The steamer George W. Elder ar
rived yesterday morning from San Pe
dro, San Francisco and Eureka with
half a hundred passengers and a large
cargo. The voyage was a rough one
and the Elder felt the full effects of the
three days' gale off the Oregon coast.
The decks were frequently washed by
mountainous seas, and passengers re
mained below. The officers report a
lonesome time at meals. Captain Jes
sen says the weather was foggy oft
Eureka and he did not see a sail be
tween that point and the mouth of the
Columbia River, nor were any steamers
In evidence. This Indicates that ves
sels kept well to sea while the gale
prevailed.
Heavy Grain Shipments.
Movement of grain from Inland Em
pire wheat fields to Portland Is now
the heaviest in the history of the port.
It is expected that there will be a still
greater movement next week, and
thence until the bulk of the crop has
been placed aboard ship. General
Manager O'Brien, of the Harrlman lines
In Oregon, declares he will not be sat
isfied until from 90 to 100 cars a day
are delivered at tidewater. Wheat ship
ments foreign for the month are ex
pected to break the record. Four more
cargoes will be cleared before the end
of the week.
Sailors Union Opposes Ship Subsidy
D. W. Paul, business agent of the
Portland Sailors' Union, departed yes
terday for Chicago to attend the Na
tional convention of the union, which
is to begin December 10. It Is ex
pected that the sailors will go on
record In opposition to the proposed
ship subsidy bill, on the ground that
Government aid in- operating steamers
would mean the employment of Ori
ental seamen to the exclusion of Amer
icans. An eight-hour day for sailors
will also bo discussed.
Officers Are Not to Blame.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 25. The local
Board of Steamboat Inspectors handed
down Its decision yesterday in the case
of the burning of the steam schooner
Berkeley off Point Conception, on the
morning of November 14, exonerating
Captain A. B. Higgins, her master, and
all his officers, from any charge of neg
ligence. The vessel was valued at
ST5.000.
Inspecting Celilo Canal.
Colonel S. W. Roessler, United States
Engineer, left yesterday for Celilo,
where he will inspect the work in
progress on the canal at that place.
Colonel RoesBler will go over the work
thoroughly and will lay out the plans
for the Winter. He is expected to
return to Portland Thursday morning.
Namantia Reports Hough Trip.
ASTORIA, Or., Nov. 26. (Special.) The
German steamship Numantla, which ar
rived In this afternoon, from the Orient,

Corvallis-Porthvnd Service.
CORVALLIS, Or., Nov. 26. (Special.)
River steamers have resumed the regular
service to Corvallis, the Pomona having
left down stream for the first time this
of her life. Becoming
a mother should be a source of joy to all, but the suffering and
danger incident to the ordeal makes its anticipation one of misery.
Mother' Friend is the only remedy which relieves women of the great
pain and danger of maternity; this hour which is dreaded as woman's
severest trial is not only made painless, but all the danger is avoided
by its nse. Those who use this remedy are no longer despondent or
gloomy ; nervousness, nausea and other distressing conditions are
overcome, the system is made ready for the coming event, and the
serious accidents so common to the critical
hour are obviated by the use of Mother's
Friend. "It is worth its weight in gold,"
says many who have used it. .$1.00 per
