Water wlli be let Into Tho Dalles
Celllo Canal today. It taaa been dry
for nearly three weeks. By Sunday
vessels could be locked through, but
the first steamer is to be tha Twin
Cities, of The Pallet-Columbia line,
which leaves Kennewtck MoDday
mornlnc and is to p through the
Canal early Tuesday. Sha leaves here
on the return Wednesday mornlnc.
Hurlng the period that the Canal
has been empty, ftancs of men have
been scattered alone the entire stretch
of more than aeven miles, making re-
pa Irs in the concrete where fissures
appeared when water was first intro
duced, while advantage has been taken
ot the lock being closed to do other
work to place them In the best of
condition for the season.
Imrlng the interim, freight moving
by waer for Upper Columbia points
aa far aa t'aaco and Kennewtck has
been taken to the Dig Kudy and there
handled to Celllo over tha State Port
ace Railroad and reloaded on the Twin
Cities for tbe Interior. It Is said that
there are approximately 2000 sacks of
wheat held at Celllo for Portland
This Is tha new crop that has bee
shipped from rlrer points for Port
land. But was not sent over the port
age because the steamer J. N. Tea
operating between the Big Eddy an
Portland, ha been hard pressed tak
Ing care of freight for The Dallea and
way landings. In addition to transport
ing shipment destined for tha Upper
Columbia, that were unloaded at th
Big Kddy.
Tha movement of wheat Is expected
to be general from now on. The As
tori Flour Mill Company has arranged
to charter the eteumer Annie Coming
lor service between Astoria and Upper
Columbia points. v bile she haa not
actually been taken over, terms have
been agreed on and It Is the under
standing that tbe service starts with
the re-opening of the canal. Much
of the freight the Comings will carry
downstream Is to be wheat and As
torla will provide general freight for
tha return trips. The plan la to
a second steamer later.
The steamer 8lale of Washington,
which Is laid op because of a broken
shaft- la to be returned to service as
soon a that Is replaced. A new shaft
Is being turned out at San Francisco
and may be shipped her early next
week. The movement of commodities
to the upper river has not been as
heavy during the shut-down of the
locks as before, but I expected to In
crease with a restoration of the recu
l.r service.
night. It is hoped to have the steamer
headed for sea late tonight-
The Nevada n arrived Monday after
noon with 1170 tona of cargo, and two
gangs were employed during the night
to commence discharging, more men
being added Tuesday. The same day
loading waa started with one gang, and
yesterday the force waa increased, so
there were nine gangs employed. Long
shoremen are loading, flour, crosa
arms and other freight in the 'tween
decks, while others are discharging
from the lower bold. The steamer win
have 3000 tona of cargo from Portland
and 00 tons of salmon from Astoria,
and she completes at San Francisco for
Charleston and New York, sailing dl
rect from the Golden Gate.
