OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Jan. 14. While the name of Justice Hushes, of the Unllel States .Supreme Court, occasionally Is men tione.i In connection with talk of the Republican Presidential nomination to be male In 1516. few politicians seem to believe that the Justice will be material factor In the next big politi cal contest; In other words, the Hughes boom Is maklns no progress. At the same time, men who do. not pprove of the idea of nominating Jus tice Hughes, agree that he is the type of man who. If nominated, would add Kreat strength to the Republican ticket, for Hughes is a man who could and would draw support from the two wings of the Kepubllcan party. He Is not a radical In any sense, ana v. um have progressive as well as stand-pat Republicans behind him. But the feeling Is general that there are other men who could attract the support of both wings of the party quite as well as Justice Hughes, and among the number, it Is figured, are some who would be better campaign ers, and therefore better drawing cards than the Justice from New York. For. among those who know him. Justice Hughes Is regarded as deciaeniy - com. and such a reputation would prove a handicap. FalrbankV Repntatlosi Hurt. Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana, might have risen higher than the ice Presidency but for his reputation as a -human Icicle." a reputation, by tne way. which he did not deserve. For Mr. Fairbanks is. In point or iact. a most cordial gentleman. But he was given the reputation of being cold, and he never was able to inane mat repu tation. And it did considerable toward sidetracking him. especially in l'JOti. when otherwise he might have stood a fair chance of winning the Republican nomination. Returning to the Hughes boom, big men who know the Justice do not hesi tate to say that he will not allow his name to be presented to the next Re publican National convention, if he can lielo It. His friends assert positively that he lias no Presidential aspirations: that he put them aside when he accepted the appointment to the Supreme bench. And history does not record any In stance where a Presidential nomina tion was thrust upon a man against his will. Hashes Would Feel Honored. It is not that Justice Hughes would not feel honored by the Presidency; he would. But. being a trained lawyer, he has a strict regard for the proprie ties of the judiciary, and he Is one of those who believes that men should not be taken from the Supreme bench to lo nominated for the Presidency. Once that precedent Is established, and once men of the Supreme bench get the Idea that they may be taken on to lead one party or the other In a National cam paign, the bench will lose its dignity, and its members who have been active politically will be under suspicion. Up to now the Supreme Court has had the confidence of the public, and lis members have been credited with having risen above political or other influence. But If one of their number resigns from the bench to seek a Presi dential nomlnntion. or to accept one, the bench will fall in popular estima tion and the public will be watching constantly to see whether the Justices are shaping their opinions in big cases to serve their own political ends. Knowing that Justice Hughes is sen sitive in this regard, and knowing that lie has no Presidential ambition, it is safe to write down the Hughes Presi dential boom as a movement destined to failure. BANDON WANTS DREDGE PORT COMMISSION' MAY BUY OR BIIL.D Vl:SSEI 1 aasldrrable Work To Be Ilooe la Coquille River, aid (Government Help Mae Brea Requested. MARSH FIELD. Or.. Jan. 14. (Spe cial.) The Port of Bandon. comprising ail the territory on the Coquille River l-etween the City of Coquille and Its mouth, has organized for the 1915 busi ness with Colonel R. II. Rosa as presi uent; E. E. Johnson, vice-president: J. V- Norton, secretary, and T. P. Hanley, treasurer, the other member of the ommlssion being A. McNair. G. T. Treadgoid, of Bandon. is attorney for the port, and has contested the fight made against the organization of the port. Much dredging Is proposed during tile present year. To provide for this the purchase or construction of a dredge is contemplated. The Bandon people -tte the ract the dredge Seattle has been making practically $50,000 month ly at Coos Bay in its contract at 12 cents per yard, and the local officials believe If such profits are possible in dredging, the Port of Bandon could not only save money by building a ttredge, but might be able to make con tracts with other ports to do work away from home when the dredge was not employed. The commissioners have consulted with officers of the Puget Sound Brnlge & Iredging Company, and have also filed a request to bring the Guv ernment dredge Oregon to the port in the Spring. The port now has IM.000 available for immediate work, and in the rivers and harbors bill in Congress there is another amount of $76,000 likely to be appropriated. The port has not de rided to issue bonds at present, al though authorised to do so. IlAlt IS TOO IJOIGII FOU C II A FT High Sea Is Running and Astoria Is Swept by Fierce Gale. ASTORIA. Or.. Jan."H. (Special.) The southerly wind which has been blowing at the velocity of a gale off the Coast during the past two days shifted today to the northwest. A high yea s running outside and the bar is to rough that no vessels crossed out. Locally, the heavy rain Fqualls have continued nearly all day and the strong northwest wind caused a big swell that banked up the high tide and. did con- slderable damage In the vicinity of the new municipal docks. One of the Columbia Contract Com pany's barges loaded with crushed rock for the Pacific Power & Light Company turned turtle and dumped Its load of 400 tons of rock into the river. The barge was carried against the wharf and caught on the bull rail, where it hung until the swell receded and then turned completely over, land- ing on one di me ichuci v. drove a hole through it. The pipelines Of the dredge working at the wharf were broken in several places, but the dredge itself was not damaged. Three other barges which were moored at the. wharf had narrow escapes, but were shifted by tugs be fore any damage was done. As Taul Paulsen was returning from Youngs River in a fishing boat and was near the railroad bridge his boat swamped, but by swimming a short distance he was able to reach the tres tle. The boat was recovered. TIDES FLOOD DIKED AREAS Grcatet.1 Damage at Marsuflcld Is Inundation or Handles. -.. . n.'-irr.-TL! r or .Ian. 14. (Spe cial.)

SEAS PLAY WITH SHIP HARDY IX TAKING LEAVE OP COOS BAY NEARLY WRECKED. Distress Signals Hoisted Bat Trip to Deeper Water Made Before Life- " savers Arrive. COOS BAY, Or., Jan. 14. (Special.) The steam schooner Hardy, the only vessel which attempted to leave the bay toduy, outwr.rd bound, nearly was wrecked. Tne .lard's experience was viewed by pass'-ngers on the steamer N'ann Smith, which had anchored at Charleston Bay to take the tide if con ditions were favorable. The Hardy en countered sea after Bea as she started out and one drove her orosswise of the channel and almost upon the portion of the standing jetty. Mariners who saw the danger mar veled that Ue Hardy extricated her self without foundering. It was ebb tide before she had reached the sea. During the trip distress signals were hoisted and the Nann Smith called the lifesaving crew, but. before It arrived, the Hardy had reached the open sea and smoother water. Being without wireless, no report was sent back of the damage and the craft steamed southward on her way. The steamship Breakwater arrived off Coos Bay at 2 o'clock, but it is said will not come in until Friday morning. It is believed by mariners confined in this port that the blockade can be lifted tomorrow, as weather conditions point to smoother water. Marine Notes. Following news received that Bal four, Guthrie & Co. had fixed the British steamer Strathgarry for wheat from Portland at 45 shillings, was the report bv the Merchants Exchange yes terday that the British steamer Devon City, from Moji, also consigned to Bal four, Guthrie & Co.. had crossed into the river. She will load at Albina dock, but first goes to one of the mills to be lined. D. C.

PILOTS TO GET PULITZER Charges Regarding Unfair Treat ment of Competitors at Astoria to Be Investigated--'cw Equip ment Likely to Be Provided. S. M. Mears. president of the Port of Portland Commission, and Captains E. W. Spencer and James W. Shaver, of the same body, will meet Manager Plummer, of the Puget Sound Tugboat Company, now maintaining an oppo sition tugboat service off the Columbia River bar, to negotiate for the latter taking over the entire towing facilities there. That step is tli outgrowth of a letter received from Mr. Plummer, which was read and discussed at yes terday's meeting of the Commision. A similar proposal was talked over during the first competition between the Portland and the Puget Sound fleets and came to naught. The second appearance of the competitive tugs was made last month and since then they have towed about as many vessels into the Columbia as the Portland tugs. The combined service has pleased shippers, but naturally depletes the revenues of the Port of Portland, hence any rea sonable arrangement that can be en tered into for the Puget Sound inter ests to do all the work is regarded as desirable at this time. Pulltser to Be Commissioned. It is not intenaed that the pilotage feature shall enter into the transac tion, as the Commission yesterday adopted a resolution that the pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer, which will be ready for sea in a few days, be turned over to the bar pilots, headed by Cap tain Gunderson, ready for them to op erate and with a proviso that her monthly expenses, estimated at $800, be borne by the Corimission as well as $140 a month to p;iy for wireless. If the Puget Sound company does not take over the towing, the pilots are to be given meals and sleeping accommo dations on the port's tugs when neces sary for them to be aboard and the schooner may be withdrawn by the Port after the expiration of 15 days' notice. The pilots are not to be under the Jurisdiction of masters of tugs, but any questions involving the service or charges are to be taken up with the Commission direct. It was agreed also that the'pilots will be free to go on the tiic-s of the onnosltion if they wish and to pilot all ships regardless of which tugs tow them. Captain Archie Pease, of the Commis sion, who, with Fred Pendleton, consti tuted the committee on arranging for the pilots to take over the schooner, said he was not satisfied with the man ner in which the service had been con ducted at the mouth of the river and that one of the tug masters was re ported to have threatened at the office of the "British Vice-Consul at Astoria that vessels handled by the opposition would not be given the same consider ation in later moves as though brought in by employes of the Port Astoria Investigation Ordered. "This all hinges on talk s.Jd there Is no proof," remarked President Mears. "I'll bring proof," retorted Captain Pease. The matter was closed by R. D. Inman moving that Captains Pease and Shaver be delegated to investigate the situation at Astoria. "I take great pleasure in making these appointments and what we want is proof." said President Mears. The Commission turned attention to .a plan for installing certain new ma chinery and equipment aboard a steel hull built last year for the dredge Co lumbia and leaving engines, boilers and pumping gear in the old hull so that it might be used as a relay for dredging in the harbor and at certain places along the river. Commissioners Mears, Inman and Spencer, as a special com mittee on that improvement, reported favorably and recommended that steps be taken to provide the relay plant and make all changes, the estimated cost being $105,000. The committee pointed out that if turbine engines were pur chased for the new hull, instead of du plicating the reciprocating engines now in service, a saving of $10,000 to $15,000 could be realized. Auxiliary Dredge Opposed. Captain Pease interposed an objec tion to the outlay arguing that there was sufficient open ground adjacent to the harbor on which to deposit material so that a single dredge and ordinary pipeline could be operated. President Mears insisted that authorities agreed the material must go principally to Guild's Lake and Mock's Bottom, there fore a relay or "boster" was required. Captain H. T. Groves, superintendent of dredging lor the Port, was called and he explained advantages of the re lay plant. He said that Government engineers had estimated, following a recent survey of the harbor, that 2,500, 000 vards of material must be removed between Irving: dock and the plant of the Portland Flouring Mills Company to provide the desired depth of water and that to have a channel 600 feet wide to the Columbia River 10.000.000 yards probablv would be dredged. It was decided finally to authorize J. B. C Lockwood, designing engineer, to proceed with plans for the relay and that bids for the equipment would be asked. , Captain Spencer was named to sur vev three barges that have been dis carded and to estimate what could be obtained for them. If unsalable they will be burned. - M Talbot, manager or the Port, pre vious to his departure for California, recently on a leave of absence, sug gested " that some effort be made to procure a return from the Government of $475,000 advanced last year, so that work on the north Jetty at the mouth of the Columbia might be continued President Mears said he would refer the question to the Oregon delegation at Washington. OREGOXIAX DAMAGES RUDDER American-Hawaiian Liner Grounds Leaving San Pedro Harbor. LOS ANGELES. Cal.. Jan. "--f-The steamer Oregonian. from Puget Sound and the Columbia River for New York, was detained in San Pedro harbor to day while divers made a survey to de termine the extent of damage sus tained by the vessel's rudder when she grounded on Mormon Island on the way out last night. This was the second accident to the Oregohiair since her arrival Sunday. One of her ports was stove in by the tug Warrior, which was towing-her to the turning basin. Repairs were com pleted yesterday. WATER IS XOT APPRECIATED Time Lost With Cranky Skippers May Prompt Cliange in Charges. Rates for supplying sparkling Bull Run water to ships, which are now $1 for 5000 gallons or less and 20 cents for each additional 1000 gallons, will be Increased if Harbormaster Speier is listened to, for he saya some masters of vessels visiting here do not appreciate the fact they are get ting the best water in the world for less rates than are charged elsewhere, and will make no effort to facilitate the work of his men in delivering it. On a few vessels skippers have re fused to have their men "turn to" and giv"e a hand laying hose from con nections on docks to the ship's tanks, so that has devolved on Captain Speier a.nd the launch engineer, and others order water delivered at a certain hour and countermand it after the launch reports with hose and other equipment, and more ask for water delivered several times while in the harbor and expect to receive it -at the minimum rate. Captain Speier will ask that a charge of $1 be made for each connection and for each time the launch calls alongside a ship in re sponse to an brder for water that then Is refused. GRAIN" ELEVATOR PROBABLE Commission or Public Docks Pro poses Plan for Establishment. If voters of the City" of Portland will authorize the sale of $900,000 in bonds, and grain exporters will guarantee to lease space as outlined, this port will have a modern grain elevator. The Commission of Public Docks, which has considered the departure previously, went into the details of fhe scheme at yesterday's meeting and proposes to !j e . . i. i .i o c a futwis to meet all maintenance and sinking, fund charges, retirement oi ouiiuo. man. and kindred expenses, so that in the end the full amount of the bond issue would be repaid and taxpayers will not be out a dollar. . Puget Sound has taken, the lead in grain elevators for public use and It is deemed imperative that Portland i ,mo nhnrar-lAr of facilities. The elevator is to be of slip and pier construtclon so vessels iau " modated on the river side as well as in the slip.

International Longshoremen's Associa tion. - WINDS SPOIL FASTER TRIP Vanduara Shows Herself Speedy on Voyage From Callao. Had it not been for head winds met with off the California Coast. Captain Smith, of the Norwegian bark Vandu ara. which was made fast yesterday alongside the dock of the North Pacific Lumber Company, says that he cou d have made the passage from Callao In 26 or 27 days, while as it was, the ship was only 35 days on the way. an unus ually speedy run. "West and northwest winds about otf the Golden Gate delayed us and at one time there we were headed toward the south to get a good slant of wind laid Captain Smith. "The Vanduara Is a fast sailer and up to that time we had tine weather and favorable winds On the way we passed two ships, but did not speak to either of them. British and German sailors in the crew of the ship, when she .reached Callao. became such earnest spellers re garding the European war. remarked the skipper, that he paid them off and shipped successors. STORM ON COAST ABATING Rains Start WiHalnette Rising at Several Valley Cities. Indications were last night that stormy conditions along the Coast were ouieting down, though during tne afternoon there was a wind verity of 60 miles an hour at North Head coming from the west, with 26 miles at Eureka from the northwest. Heavy rains during the past few days are bringing the Willamette R.ver up and yesterday morning's reports were that at Wilsonville the stream rose 5 1 feet in 24 hours. At Eugene it was 4.6 "feet, at Albany 1.6 feet and 1 9 feet at Salem, with the rise at Port land nine-tenths of a foot During the next few days the river here will climb and may reach a stage of eight to nine feet above zero.
