.14 TITE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, - APR1X 21, - 1913. GALE SWEEPS SPIT, LINERS ARE LATE 40-Mi!e Northwester - Beats Along Coast and Ships of All Classes Delayed. NORTHERN PACIFIC TARDY Hawaiian and Scverul Coasters Are Held Up by Condition of Wind and Tide Milder Weather 4 , Is Expected for Today. Attaining a maximum velocity of 0 milea late yesterday, having increas- ed from 35 miles an hour at 8 o'clocK in the morning and died down to 30 miles at 5 P. M., a decidedly fresh northwester detained shipping- on this part of the Pacific Coast and on the lower river some trouble was experi enced. The new liner Northern Pacific, end ing a cracking good run from San Francisco entered the Columbia River at 12:30 o'clock yesterday, but a late message to the Merchants' Exchange said it was shortly before o Defore the vessel was able to gain her berth at Flavel owing to the stiff northwest wind and strong tide. The passengers left for Portland by train at 6:30 o'clock. The American-Hawaiian liner Ha waiian bound here from the Golden Gate, was looked for yesterday, but late in the day the skipper sent a wire less message that he would not reach the Columbia iltver light vessel until 3 o'clock this morning. There are some coasters on the way that are expected to be among the tardy ones. The spit was reported rough yesterday morning and again last night with a big sea running outside. Such northwest wea ther is not unusual at this season, yet is infrequent during the Summer. At times there are stiff breezes with heavj westerly swells that make deep water Journeys unattractive for landlubbers, but even mariners admit that yester day's blow was nasty." Captain Lapraik took the Northern Pacific down the Coast in 25 hours on the last voyage, and it was fully ex pected that he would reach Flavel dock and make fast yesterday earlier than has yet been done by either that ship or the Great Northern, but with wind and tide against him in maneuvering the powerful liner, he experienced a discouraging delay. She is due to sail again today and is to have a good passenger list. District Forecaster Beals said last night that there were indications that the northwester would moderate considerably during the night and. in any event. It will have little effect on the Northern Pacific's run down the Coast as the weather will be with her. The "Big Three" liner Rose City got away from San Francisco yesterday with an average passenger list and fair cargo. She is due late tomorrow and will probably be -on time unless the wind holds out. The Beaver, of that fleet, sails tomorrow ' morning at 9 o'clock for San Francisco and San Pedro. CAPTAIN" HUMPHREY IX CITY Alaska Interests Engage Steamer Alliance for Coming Season. On his way home from San Fran cisco, Captain O. J.- Humphrey, man aging agent cf the Alaska Commercial Company. headquarters at Seattle, passed through the city Sunday after having completed arrangements for the charter of the steamer Alliance, of the North Pacific Steamship Com pany's fleet, which has been laid up at the O.

No official in formation has reached Portland repre sentatives of the company concerning the charter of the ship.

CEIvltO CANAL TEST IS DUE First Steamer May Be Locked From Upper to Middle River Monday. In making the last of the pressure tests on The Dalles-Celilo Canal, about two feet of water was allowed into the upper canal yesterday and the same amount is to go through today and by tomorrow or Friday there should be seven to eight feet over the sills. There probably will be a steamer locked through Monday, and as each lock is emptied it will be scanned to ascertain whether defects appear and learn in a general way how the big ditch has stood the strain. Colonel Morrow, Corps of Engineers, United States Army, visited the canal Monday and found conditions satisfac tory. In completing the undertaking a considerable force is yet engaged, but it is being diminished as certain de tails are ended and virtually a com pleted project will greet those to par ticipate in the opening exercises on May 6.

EPSOM MAY BE DISPOSED OF Tramp Intended for Portland Load ing to Get Temporay Repairs. Temporary repairs having been de cided on aboard the British steamer Epsom, which was badly damaged while on the reefs at Carrera Point and on making San Francisco was found leak ing and steamed to Victoria in that condition, has led to the assumption among British Columbia mariners that she will be offered for sale. The ves sel is under charter to Kerr, Gifford & Company and was originally intended to load grain here for the United King dom, though now it is said that there is some chance that she will take on cargo on Puget Sound. The steamer had a cargo of steel rails for Port Mann and the plan is to send her to Esquimau immediately on being discharged. Plates in bad condition on her starboard bow are to be replaced, but in the forward hold, where temporary repairs were made in the south, no work is to be done. Marine Notes. H. W. Dowllng, mate of the schooner Forest Home, which is in the harbor from Honolulu, says that on the run from the mouth of the river thousands of "Portuguese men-o'-war" were sighted, which he eaid is unusual, be cause those frequenters of deep water make their home in warmer climes. Mr. Lowling is a son of the master of the Forest Home and be is looking forward to a pleasant voyage with a full cargo of lumber to the West Coast, as he says the voyage from Iquique to Honolulu with nitrates was not to his liking. Among coasters cleared yesterday were the steamer Northland, for San Pedro with 800,000 feet of lumber; the Hornet, for the same port via Mukil teo with 100.000 feet, and the Johan Poulsen. carrying 720.000 feet, and the Santa Barbara, with 600.000 feet, both for Sair Francisco. The Tamalpals sailed with lumber and passengers and the Santa Barbara gets away today. C. II. Hcnney, Deputy Collector of Customs, essayed the role of auctioneer yesterday in offering for sale a crate of rose bushes, numbering 1142, and which were recently entered from Hol land. They were purchased for $51, though the value is said to have been in excess of $200 at the time they reached this country. TThe consignee refused to accept them because they were delayed en route. United States Inspectors Edwards and Fuller will inspect tho tug Charles R. Greiner tomorrow and the steamer Harvest Queen Saturday. Captain Bernt Olsen cleared the tug Akutan for Bristol Bay yesterday and she leaves tomorrow with Nushagak as her final destination. Unless delayed, the Norwegian steamer Christian Bors, loading wheat at Irving dock for the United King dom, will get away from port tonight Having loaded flour for the West Coast, the Norwegian steamer Cuzco, of the Grace fleet, started lumber at the Portland mill yesterday and is to be on her way seaward early today. E. W. Wright, manager of the Port of Portland, has ordered that the bar tug"Oneonta leave Astoria today to be given an overhauling here. She will go to the public drydock, and unless the tug Wallula is ordered here soon after the Oneonta. is ready, the latter will be laid up for a time.

El more, of the same fleet, departed last night for Tillamook, LOCKS PASS FRIDAY Papers Expected to Complete Transfer to Government. DELAY CAUSES SURPRISE Cliange of Ownership Announced for Midnight Yesterday, but Word - From East Falls to Arrrve. Money Soon, to Be Paid. LOCKS DEAL, CLOSES FRIDAY. Telegraphic advices from Wash ington yesterday were that papers in connection with the purchase of the locks and canal at Oregon City by the Government from the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company, had been mailed from there Monday and are expected here Friday.

Because of delay In the arrival of the papers from the East, formal transfer of the locks of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company at Oregon City to the United States was not made today, as had been 'expected. The Grahamona, owned by the Gra ham Transportation Company, expected to be the first steamer through the lifts after they had passed under Fed eeral control. The vessel went through this morning on Its way to Salem loaded with groceries and produce, but tolls will be charged against it and other steamers until the money for the locks is in the hands of the Port land corporation. The. papers are ex pected Friday, when the transfer will be made formally if they are delivered on that day. Local officials at first were at a loss to account for the delay in the trans fer of the title to the property. From instructions that T. W. Sullivan, hy draulic engineer of the Portland Rail way, Light & Power Company, had re ceived it was understood that the change would be made at midnight this morning. Lock-Tender Chambers also was instructed that the locks were property of the Government and that no tolls could be charged against steamers that passed through. E. P. Dedman, County Recorder, yes terday notified C. L. Reames. United States District Attorney, In Portland, that no instruments affecting the deed had been filed In his office after March '22. After the transfer the Government engineers expect to make extensive im provements, providing Increased facili ties for the river trafne. News From Oregon Ports. ASTORIA. Or.. April 20 (Special.)
