' of land lying south of the Port's dry dock at St. Johns, which adjoins a strip owned by the Western Cooperage Interests, having a river frontage of 300 feet. Officials of the company have assured the Commission they plan the erection of a modern plant and expect ta have 400 men, at times, on the pay roll. Three ts Five-Year Leue X.tlced. The Commission favored a lease of from three to five years, compensation to be on a basis of 5 per cent of the appraised value of the site, which has a length on the waterfront of 400 feet. There will be a strip, 100 feet wide on the inshore line and 150 feet on the harbor line, remaining between the drydock and a line of piling to be driv en marking a division upon which the company is not to encroach with its log rafts. In the same connection a committee of 13 from St. Johns waited on the Commission to ascertain if financial as sistance, in the sum of about $2500, might be . forthcoming to assist in building a roadway from the Willam ette boulevard to the drydock and cooperage plant. Right of way has been obtained and It is estimated the road will be 1100 feet long, with a width of 30 feet, 20 feet of which is to be paved with six inches of concrete. The estimated cost is about $6000. While the Commission had decided not to build a roadway this year, the committee was Informed that if plans and estimates were sub mitted the Commission would go Into the matter and if it should become a party it must be understood it would pay a stipulated portion of the esti mated cost. Dredge Columbia Progresses. Progress was reported on the deck snd cabin of the new dredge Columbia. M. Talbot, general manager, was au thorized to draw a warrant In favor of Joseph Supple, contractor, for wood work In the sum of $1908, representing the estimate of the completed labor in May. The total contract is for $14,965. A request from the Commission of Public Docks that the dredge Port land be assigned to dig a slip at the north end of Municipal Dock No. 1 about August 1 was not acted on fa vorably, as a pier 490 feet deep and 120 feet wide ts planned there. It was said that river dredging, to deepen the channel to 29 feet, would be in full swing at that time and, besides, it was feared the character of material to be handled could not be satisfactorily moved by the Portland. The Commission delegated Manager Talb"bt to apprise Mayor Graji, of As toria, that the bar tugs Oneonta and Wallulu would be available, when in port, for duty as fireboats. Because of a recent serious fire at Astoria, it was asked that the tugs be assigned for' such duty. BOSTON ' AGAIN" CHAIiLEXGED Beaver's Tars Would Have Second Go With Oregon Bluejackets. For . money, chalk or marbles, but preferably for $100 a side, the 10-oared crew of the steamer Beaver has Issued a -challenge to their opponents aboard the . cruiser . Boston, whom they de- leatea Tuesday afternoon In a race from the Broadway bridge to the cruiser. Harbormaster Speier was asked yes terday by the Beaver's sailors to pass the challenge on to the tars of the Bos ton because It had been intimated that the Oregon Naval Militiamen were not satisfied that their men had pulled under the most favorable conditions. The Bostonlans are as eager for an other try as their friends on the liner and when next the Beaver returns to port there may be a definite pact en tered Into for a second heat. Mean while there promises to be increased interest on both ships in rowing. during the Rose Festival. - The visitors were met here by a detachment of six men from the Oregon Naval Reserve under the leadership of Chief . Quar termaster Goodman. BANDON, Or., June 11. (Special.) The steam schooner Speedwell sailed from here' at midnight for Coos Bay. The steam schooner Grace - Dollar, with' lumber from the Johnson mill, sailed south at midnight. The steam schooner Elizabeth, with passengers and lumber products, sailed last night for -San Francisco. BAYOCEAN, Or.une 11. Special.)

Henry Nless, chef aboard W. R. Grace & Company's New York liner Santa Catalina, lies at the Emergency H'os pital with, his right ankle broken, his face ' a mass of bruises and possibly suffering from internal Injuries, while Iouis Weiss, second steward of the ship.

Harbormaster Speier responded to a call there after being misinformed that a riot was in progress at munncipal dock No. 1. The Santa Cataiina was at Albers dock No. 1, and the fight is alleged to have started when Niess returned to the vessel after a tour ashore. The Santa Catalina sailed late last night for Puget Sound, and as she Is due here again June 20. the case will probably be disposed of then. News From Oregon Ports. ASTORIA, Or, June 11. (Special.) KEBEXS PUSHING CAMPAIGN Federals Routed Near San Luis Po tosi in Several Engagements. SALTILLO, Coahuil.-, Mexico, June 9, via El Paso, Tex., June -11. Constitu tionalist forces under Generals Car rera Torres and Eulalio Gutierrez have routed the federals near San Luis Po tosi In several minor engagements In the last few days. General Torres is operating along the line of the railroad between Zacatecas and ban Luis Po tosi. as well as directly around the city, while Gutierrez has the federals penned up some distance north of San Luis Potosi. In these skirmishes 400 horses and quantity of supplies and ammuni tion were captured. Colonel Vincente Segura, a constitutionalist leader of the State of Puebla, who arrived here to day to confer with General Carranza, said that the major portion of the states of Puebla and Hidalgo were un der constitutionalist control. The constitutionalists were fully pre pared to prevent a federal blockade at Tampico, said -official messages re ceived here today by General Carran za. Word was received that the. fed eral gunboats Bravo and Zaragoza had taken up positions outside Tampico Harbor to prevent the entrance of ves sels bearing ammunition for the con stitutionalists. General Caballero. how ever, had planted strong batteries com manding the harbor mouth to cover the entry of the merchant vessels. SPEEDERS TO ' BE . ARRESTED Harbormaster Gives Pinal Warning to Vessels at Fault. . Summer weather may have ' stimu lated a desire among certain steam boat skippers to forget that . eight miles an hour Is the limit in the har bor, for yesterday Harbormaster Speier found one speeding and issued a warn ing. He says it is the last -caution he will give and hereafter warrants of arrest will be served instead. - A former system of having - officers sta tioned at ends of. a measured course is to be resorted -to and a record kept of the time. When the harbor patrol . launch picked up a dangerous snag yesterday morning and started with it for the snag "graveyard below the North Pa cific mill, the master of the steamer Celilo applauded with a whistle salute. That, remarked Speier, was decidedly unusual, as not all skippers appeared to appreciate efforts made to keep the channel clear.
