16 THE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 9, 1915. CHANNEL 27 FEET DEEP AT LOW TIDE Increased Depth Is Shown by Survey Under Way at Mouth of Columbia. AKMY ENGINEER PLEASED More Rapid Headway Is Prospect for Immediate Future Ship Drawing 2 6 I'eet Comes Over South Way at Ixw Water. Tn the channel extending from the gas buoy marking the end of the south jetty, a distance of 3500 feet seaward. there is no less depth than 27 feet at low water. Close to the buoy. In what is known as the south channel, there is a channel with a ruling depth of 33 feet. A survey under way at the mouth of the Columbia, which should be fin iehed today, indicates that constant changes are continuing there. TJata on a partial survey received here, cover ing the southerly quarter of the bar as far west as the west line of the area being operated over by the dredge Chinook, show the channel nas Deen deepened since the March survey. The area being dredged by the Chinook now has a governing depth of 11 feet, while when she started the ruling depth was 254 feet. The depth in the' area between the Chinook is working, and what is known aa the south channel has also been increased from 23,i io 27 feet. In the center of the cut where the Chinook is engaged, the parallel lines of which are about 1000 feet apart, the depth has been in creased from 26 to 28 feet. Colonel McKinstry. Corps of En gineers, U. S. A., under whose direc tion the survey has been conducted, eays that, considering the fact the sea son is only well started, the June sur vey is most satisfactory. The Asso ciated Oil Company's tanker. W'm. K. Herrin. drawing 26 feet, crossed into the river at low water on her last voyage from the south. More vessels are using the south channel during daylight, and with the establishment soon of a lighted range to mark that load it is believed that it will become the popular route most of the time. The Chinook being, in. continuous operation, remaining close to six days each week and working 24 hours a day, is thought to be accomplishing more than ever before toward increas ing the depth, and of course is handling much more material than during any previous service on the bar. She car ries thre crews, and when she steams to her at schorage, at the end of the week, it is only with time remaining for her take on oil and have her machinery gone over before her work ers are due for their day off. The extension of the north jetty is gaining as rapidly as possible and a full force is employed. The opening of bids Monday for an additional de livery at Fort Canby of 650,000 tons of rock and the certainty that 20 per cent more of that order will be called for insures the enrockment being car ried along during the remainder of the year. On that project operations will be continued during the Winter it weather permits, and as the trestle ad vances it is felt that scouring is mul tiplied so that by next season there will be more marked gains in the chan nel. fciriP CREWS RACE TOMORROW Cutter and Wiialeboat Events Sched uled Over Mile and Half Course. Crews of the Oregon Naval Militia training ship Boston and the "Big Three" liner Rose City are ending their training for cutter and whale boat races that are to be held at 5 o'clock tomorrow afternon, the start to be made on a line between the two ships, and the course to be three quarters of a mile downstream and return, making a mile and a half. There is talk now that the winners will be pitted against crews from tno United States cruiser South Dakota, clue in the harbor .to day from Bremerton. Aboard the Rose City a purse has been raised and that is to be covered by the Boston's company, while offi cials of the Portland & San Fran cisco Steamship Company and officers of the reon Naval Militia are to provide cups to be presented the win ning crews. Last year one of the aquatic programme features was a race between a crew from the Boston and another from the 'Beaver, the latter winning. This time both sides prom ise to make the former event appear like the efforts of amateurs. Cap tain Rankin, of the Rose City, says his ship will be open to visitors, and 'board the Boston more will assemble, while space will be alloted spectators on Ainsworth dock and along the bank on the east side will be abundant vantage ground. The South Dakota will be moored below the Broadway bridge, where more visitors will be entertained. IJOAT OWXERS ARE I.V TOIJOs Inspector McGrath Ends Fishing Controversy and Makes Big Haul. One result of a week's trip on the river as far as Astoria by H. F. Mc Grath. chief inspector of the Custom Kouse force, is a batch of 58 complaints against boat owners on charges of various violations of the Federal reg ulations. Mr. McGrath returned yes terday. The principal reason for the journey was to confer with fisher men, cannery men and pilots on the lower river regarding the use of gill nets in the main channel, and steps are under way to extend the zone from the bar upstream, inside of which fish injr was to be prohibited. ... An understanding was reached through which fishermen will keep a clear path for vessels between Fort Stevens to the sea and nets are to be picked up at once when in the path of an approaching . steamer, the latter to sound long whistle blasts to indicate their approach through that zone. Mr. McGrath says that arrange ment will continue- until Fall, when permanent regulations are to r. adopted. He said the matter was threshed out at a ' meeting Monday evenino, w mi n was most narmonious. ALASKA CARGO OX DESPATCH Astoria and Portland Freight Mov ing on Monthly Schedule. On her second voyage to Astoria in the service of the Border Line, in load ing cargo for Alaskan ports, the steam er Despatch entered the river at 5 o'clock yesterday morning. . The vessel first los ded early in May and it is understood to be the plan to use her In maintaining a monthly service, han dling cannery supplies principally. Considerable material for northern fish plants moves from Portland to As toria to be loaded and it la said more would be routed that way if sufficient space was avail, ble on the vessel, as firms here yet retain many accounts in Alaska and ship freight by rail to Puget Sound for reloading aboard ves sels, facilities which Portland enjoyed through a direct line last season as far as Skagway. The operation of the Des patch from the river serves to retain for tho Columbia a direct Alaska connec tion, and commercial interests yet hope to re-establish a fleet from this port, probably next year. SICSIAAV PROJECT TO BEGIX Washington Telegraphs to Proceed With Request for Jetty Bids. Bids will be advertised for In a tew days for the extension of the north and south jetties at the mouth of the Siuslaw, telegraphic authority having reached Colonel Morrow, Corps of .En gineers, United States Army, yesterday to proceed with the work. The project is being fostered by the Port of Sius law and the Government, and as money was allotted in the last rlvei j and har bors appropriation and the taxpayers of the Port of Siuslaw have deposited their share, no obstacle remains. The south jetty will be advanced more than the north trestle. Of two barges under construction at the yard of the St. Johns Shipbuilding Company for the first Portland district, to be used in handling rock, one is to be started today for the Coquille River and the other is expected to be under way in a week.

A libel asrainst the steamer Mackinaw, due today from San Francisco, was filed in the Federal Court yesterday oy wm lam Fricker, a longshoreman, who asks J5000 damages for injuries resulting from what he asserts was negligence in not providing proper safeguards against accident during the loading of a carero of wheat in sacks at the Irving dock, Portland, May 1, 1912. Fricker was working under the hatch way at a point where he turned wheat sacks coming down chutes into other chutes, he asserts in his complaint.

CHANGES POSSIBLE DUE TO ELECTION Officials and Employes at City Hall Are Uneasy as Re sult of Balloting. MAYOR REFUSES TO TALK Shift of Administration of Water Bureau Ont or Mi. Daly's Hands Is Humored Treasurer Adams One Who Slay Be Dropped. Although official statements concern ing Monday's election are not forthcom ing from Mayor Albee and others who figure politically at the City Hall, prospects are bright for some Interest ing .changes in the administration of the various city departments and bu reaus. Mayor Albee. who has the respon sibility of assigning the various di visions of the city service to the four Commissioners and himself, said yes terday that he has reached no decision as to what assignments he intends to make. He said he does not know whether Mr. Baker will take up the duties of Commissioner Brewster a Commissioner of the department of pub lic affairs, or whether there will be a rearrangement and a reassignment of bureaus. Water Bureau Chancre Rumored. It Is rumored at the City Hall that the removal of the water bureau from the department of public utilities now supervised by Commissioner Daly is among the reassignment possibilities. Mayor Albee refused to say whether there is any ground for the rumor or not. It is known that, the Mayor has not been entirely satisfied with the manner in which the water bureau has been operated, and it is said that there Is a possibility of this part of the city service being turned over to Z&r. Baker. The Mayor and Mr. Daly have held opposite views concerning water me ters and methods to reduce the waste of water. Employes Are tneaiy. There has been a great deal of un easiness among officials and employes as to the possibilities of tn. ax being used. There are several officials and employes who can be removed without the usual formality of written civil service charges and procedure. Among these is Park Superintendent Convill. who received his permanent ap pointment from Commissioner Brewster a short time ago. Under the civil service provisions of the city charter all civil service em ployes must serve a six months' pro bationary period before their appoint ment becomes permanent. Sir. Convill has not served six months. Miss White Can Be Removed. Miss Margaret White, private secre tary to Commissioner Brewster, also has not completed her six months' pro bationary period. City Treasurer Adams, who was a formidable candidate against Commis sioner Bigelow, is subject to removal if a majority of the Council should favor such action. He serves under Commissioner Bigelow, who refused to say what he proposes to do. There also is considerable uneasiness among civil service employes serving their probationary periods MARINE INTELLIGENCE. Steamer Schedule. DUE TO ARRIVE. 'Name. From Geo. W.

Man ning, secretary of the Charities, of his willingness to make this arrangement yesterday and said that if the plan was not entirely satisfactory to the visiting team he would himself "square things." Tickets for the game are to be sold on the streets Friday under the aus pices of the Junior Leag , which has volunteered to assist the Charities, and it is believed that the proceeds from the benefit will add a great deal to the tunc' that is being raised.

Minneapolis, Minn. "After my little one was born I was sick with pains in my sides which the doctors said were caused by inflamma tion. I suffered a great deal every month and grew very thin.
