which went into commission yesterday
after an idleness of about three months,
was to carry a party to make a pre
liminary examination of three projects
on the Columbia River and she will
. leave early this morning in command of
Captain Dunbar.
The most Important feature of the
journey will be the examination of
Cathiamet Channel, now used mostly
by river steamers, but which may be
improved and the main channel estab
lished there. Major Mclndoe, Corps of
Engineers, U. S. A., having ordered the
examination In accordance with a pro
vision of the last rivers and harbors
bill. The main sblp channel is now on
the opposite side of the Columbia, the
two being divided by Puget Island, and
if the Cathiamet road Is decided on it
will mean a saving in time for deep
water vessels bound to and from Port
land. Skamokawa Creek la another point
to be visited, as the act provides for
a preliminary examination at the
mouth with a view to Improving it for
the benefit of river steamers, which
tow log rafts from there.
A third project started deals with
Young's Bay, below Astoria, but the
details of what is desired there will
not be worked out until the engineers
discuss the situation with commercial
Interests at Astoria. That location has
been talked of as worthy of improve
ment for the accommodation of future
shipping and it is assumed that it will
be a general dredging scheme on the
Government's part. At present the land
owners are centering their efforts on
preliminaries. Young's Bay has been
used at times for vessels laying up
while awaiting charters and there Is
said to be fair depth in the channel.

The work will be subject to the ap
proval of Captain Veysey, Lloyd's sur
veyor, and It is hoped to get the ship
headed for sea Joday. Her crew will
return aboard when the vessel is
passed on as seaworthy, and she may
fret away with the loss of but three
days.

Graharaona to Run to Dayton Until
" Depth Is Increased.
On the . failure of a cloudburst to
manifest Itself, or even a heavy deluge
of rain that would tend to increase the
depth of the Upper Willamette yester
day, there was some gloom about the
headquarters of the Yellow Stack Line
because the officials are desirous of
sending the new steamer Grahamona on
' the Portland-Corvallls run. As It was
she was started on the Portland-Day'
ton route, and the steamer Pomona was
ordered to Supple's yards for an over
hauling.
The Grahamona went out in com
mand of Captain A. W. Graham, her
designer, who superintended her con
struction. Captain Bluhm. of the Po
mona, signed as pilot, but later will
have charge until Captain Rabbe Is
ready to assume the responsibilities.
During October or early In November
it is hoped to nave enough water to
reach Corvallis, and then the Pomona
and Grahamona will ply there, giving
all river points a daily service, and
the steamer Oregona will operate to
Dayton every other day.

STEAMER CONTRACT OT LET
Kern Says Xew Tug Has Xot Been
Given Out Yet.
Dan Kern, of the Columbia Contract
Company, denies a report from Astoria
that Wilson Bros, have been awarded
a contract for the construction of ' a
new steamer" with a length of 120 feet,
to have 700-horsepower. He says that
while machinery is on hand for the
vessel It has not been decided when she
will be built.
Some Portland firms have tendered
figures on the work, and It may cost
about $20,000. It Is probable the vessel
will be built largely after the plan of
the tug Samson, and will be used for
towing rock barges to the north Jetty
at the mouth of the Columbia, which
will be under way next season. Plans
and specifications have been passed to
different yards here, and it is said that
nearly all have filed bids.

TI G SEO.V, OP KEWBEKG.
On the arrival of the tug Seon in the harbor a few days ago from Newberg, Captain Speier, head of the
harbor patrol, said all sorts of commendable things about the' skipper of the tug because he proceeded
through the upper bridges under a slow bell, remarking that "there was one man from another city who
wished to obey the law." The reason for the Seon's lack of speed was the fact her shaft was bent and
stern bearing damaged through having struck a snag In the upper river. She vas repaired at Supple's yard,
and returned yesterday to Newberg.

Head of Jforthwesterir Electric Com
pany Expects Favorable Action.
Herbert Fleishhacker, president of
the Anglo & London Paris National
Bankof San Francisco, Is here to press
the application for a light and power
franchise of the Northwestern Electric
Company, of which he is the head. The
California capitalist feels' certain that

pear before the' body, along with At
torney L. a. McNary and George H.
Kelly, his local representatives, to meet
any opposition that is forthcoming.

have a large force of men working on
the construction of a big power plant
on the White Salmon River. This, he
said, will be completed by February 1.
Following grant of the franchise the
new company Intends to invest several
hundred thousand dollars in a com
bined substation and office building.
Mr. Kelly has several sites in view
and one will be selected immediately
after the franchise becomes a cer
tainty.
"There Is absolutely no reason why
our application should not be granted
if members of the City Council are
looking after the city's welfare," said
Mr. Fleishhacker. at the Portland Hotel
last night. "I do not think the appll
cation will meet with any opposition
Wednesday.
"To show our good faith, we put a
force of 1000 men to work on the White
Salmon River plant We Intend to sup
ply power for several of the smaller
towns around Portland,- as well as
scores of Individual enterprises outside
the city. As the work progresses ad
ditional men will be added. We ex
pect to have the plant in operation
February 1."
Speaking of business conditions in
San Francisco Mr. Fleishhacker said
that things have taken a change for
the better, and that the Exposition City
is rounding to a healthy business con
dition.

Ben Semlyer and G. Lambe, managers
of- the same, were placed on triaj for
setting up a lottery. That the $35 suit
Is not really worth that sum of money
was confessed by one of the attorneys
for the defense, who confided to the
court that In these days of strenuous
competition merchants had to work
every scheme to get business.
The two defendants, with five subor
dinate's, were arrested Saturday after
complaints had begun pouring into po
lice headquarters from persons who had
embarked in the scheme. Only the two
heads of the concern were placed on
trial, the others being dismissed by the
prosecution and used as witnesses.
"Prominent"' People Picked.
The admitted facts were that the
agents of the company go through the
city distributing numbered coupon tick
ets, free of charge. Later another agent
visits the house where the ticket has
been left, and notifies the woman that
she has been selected as one eligible to
the benefits of the project. By paying
$1 a week for 19 weeks, she Is assured
of a $35 suit, and in addition she stands
a chance of receiving the suit earlier
and for a less price.
The defendants explained that they
selected each week one of the members
of the club to receive a suit without
further payments. "We make our own
selection, not by chance," they said.

ing that she will display it and tell
where she got It. It Is purely an ad
vertisement.
It was also asserted that preliminary
selection of eligibles was made after
investigation to determine whether the
person was one who would do credit to
the company and who would keep up
the payments. The company did not
want patrons who would drop-out after
a few weeks acd forfeit their payments.
Trial Not Orderly.
The trial of the case was one of the
most disorderly witnessed In Municipal
Court recently, three attorneys, the de
fendants, the witness and the court
striving to have the best of the effort
to be heard. No evidence was submit
ted by the defense, which relied on le
gal rulings that a scheme of this nature
is not a gambllnc enterprise.
Agents In the employ of the company
denied that they represented to pros
pective patrons that there was a "draw
ing." telling, them instead that the
lucky person to receive a suit for a
price less than $19 was selected by the
management as the Interests of the
business dictated.
Judge Taswell withheld his decision
on the question until Wednesday. -
WOOD SHORT, MAN FINED
Higher Court Sustains Conviction of
Y. S. Hyde.
The conviction in Municipal Court of
Wj S. Hyde, a wood dealer accused of
giving short measure, was affirmed
in Circuit Judge Gantenbeln's court
yesterday by a Jury. A fine of $30
was Imposed. Hyde had first been
fined in the lower court, but Judge
Tazwell Increased the amount of the
fine to $50 In order to give him the
right of appeal. F. B. Buchtel. City
Sealer of Weights and Measures, Insti

Some results of work with a spade
in Palestine was the theme of a lec
ture by Rev. J. D. Peters at the Art
Museum, Fifth and Taylor streets, last
night. What has been done by explora
tion in that region above the surface
and below, revealing the history of
the country, was told, the lecture being
accompanied by pictures showing the
ruins, discoveries and inscriptions on
tombs.
Dr. Peters has been an explorer,
though not an excavator, In Palestine.
In company with Dr. Hermann Thiersch,
of Munich, he discovered some Interest
ing tomb monuments which he has de
scribed In one of the volumes of the
Palestine exploration fund. The lec
ture showed some of the results of
the work of the Palestine exploration
fund, giving a vivid picture of the land
Itself, and Its physical formation, sug
gesting the reason why the people in
habiting it played the part which they
have done in the history of religion
and civilization.
There was also, shown some of the
visible remains of the various inhab
itants of the land and its conquerors,
beginning with the megallthlc tombs
and the cave dwellers of the earliest
population, and proceeding through the
occupations or possessions of subse
quent inhabitants.
The painted tombs at Marissa, dis
covered by the lecturer and Dr.
Thiersch, are said to constitute the
earliest record of natural history study
found anywhere in the world, and have
a peculiar interest on that account as
well as because they are reported to
be the only monuments of the sort ever
found in Palestine and the only monu
ments in existence from the ancient
Edomlte country. The lecture Illus
trated and explained many Biblical subjects.
JEALOUS WOMAN ATTACKS
Divorcee Assails Stenographer Who
Met ex-Husband.
Reports that an Insane woman had
run amuck in one of the upper floors
of the Railway Exchange building
caused a hurry call to the police sta
tion ' yesterday, and Patrolman Cason
was sent to Investigate. On his arrival
he found In room 606 two highly ex
cited women, one of whom was suf
fering from slight cuts on her face.
The explanation given was that Miss
Pearl Shaffer, a stenographer employed
there, had been assaulted by Mrs.
Mvrtle Knowlton. who was actuated bv
Jealousy of ier divorced husband. Miss
Shaffer, it was said, had accepted the
attentions of Luke Knowlton. an em
ploye of the North Bank Railroad, and
Mrs. Knowlton, though divorced two
years, resented the fact. Yesterday
she went to enter a protest, and in the
scuffle Miss Shaffer's glasses were
broken and the fragments cut her face.
Cason, not having witnessed the
affray, made " no arrests, but quieted
the belligerents and advised them to
obtain warrants if either was still un
satisfied. '

PHILLIP GEVURTZ IS SUED
Architect Would Recover $3300
Denial of Deal Is Made.
Suit to recover $3300, alleged to be
due as compensation for the prepare-
tlon of plans for a $330,000 family ho
tel. has been started In Circuit Court
against Phillip Gevurtz, of I. Gevurtz
& Sons, by Thomas Hawkes, an arch!
tect. He asserts that Mr. Gevurtz ac
cepted the plans, but has failed to pay
for them.
The hotel for which the plans were
drawn was to be nine stories in
height and to be known as the Hillside
Apartment Hotel, the complaint, tiled
by Attorneys Henry St. Kayner ana
Bradley A. Ewers, recites.
Referring to the suit, Mr. Gevurtz
said last night: "I did not order any
such plans from Thomas Hawkes. He
came to me with the plans already pre-
Dared and asked me If I would get
somebody to lease the property for
hotel purposes and I answered that I
would try. While on a trip East I
did endeavor to interest parties in the
enterprise, but without -success. No
contract was signed at any time and
I at no time promised him that I would
nrocure a lessee. In tact, l naa no
actual connection with the enterprise
at all."
