COLUMBIA MOUTH
HAS 41-FOOT DEPTH
Area of Deep Water Also Has
Been Greatly Increased by
Dredging and Scouring.
SURVEY IS NOT COMPLETED
Distance Between 42-Foot Contour
Inside and Outside Entrance
Kednced From 360 0 Feet to
900 Within Fast Tear.
n one year the governing: depth at
the entrance to the Columbia River
has been increased five feet, a partial
report of the June survey having been
eiven out by Government engineers
yesterday, showing a ruling depth of
41 feet at low water. In June, 1916,
36 feet was the. least depth. Only one
point in the channel had so little depth,
mora water being available in all direc
tions from it, but 36 feet governed for
a short period.
The 41-foot area is not less than 800
feet wide, while for a width of 2500
leet the least depth is 36 feet. Equally
us imnortant as the train on the en
trance range to 41 feet, is the fact
the distance from the 42-foot contour
Inside the entrance to the 42-foot, con
tour outside is only 900 feet, whereas
a year ago It was 3600 feet.
By October the big dredge Chinook,
which has been engaged there since
Mav 1. mav have cut to the 42-foot
mark. The 40-foot depth was reached
the latter part of 1916. and since then
b. tremendous scouring nas resunea.
That is shown in the diminution of the
distance between the 42-loot contours.
The Chinook will be kept going as
lone- as weather conditions will permit,
probably until October 15. There is to
be a channel at least half a mile wide
under the provisions of the entrance
project, but those in touch with the
task believe It will deepen naturally
as welL
Conditions to the north of the range
have not all been ascertained. In fact
the survey, which started early last
month, has not been finished because
of interference at times by unfavor
able weather and strong tidal influ
i ti r n
The river channel between Portland
and the entrance conformed to the si
fnnt nrotect rjrovisiona before the pres
ent freshet and it Is believed the sedi
ment deposited will be shifted In short
order once the stream reaches a stage
nhnut ten feet above zero, so the
irrica fl.t can operate to advantage.
It was 20.1 feet above here yesterday
nnri falUnST SlOWlV.
The Government has adequate funds
for operating the Chinook the re
niiHir nf the season, also for the
,inoHn. rirederes Multnomah and
Wahkiakum and the Clatsop, the latter
Ytoine- used in the estuary, so with
every reason to expect the next rivers
and harbors bill to pass, there is ample
provision for channel expenses this
year.
CIGAR RAFT HAS SLOW TRIP
Hercules Battles With Adverse
Weather on Way to Golden Gate,
It required nine days for the tug
Hercules to tow a big cigar-shaped
log raft from the Columbia River to
Kan Francisco. She left the river July
1 and reported within the Golden Gate
at 3 o'clock yesterday morning, bound
for San Diego. The raft was built by
the Benson Logging Company, and
4 tho business was established 39
others had preceded it to Southern
California. .
The last raft made a poor start and
appears to have been unable to dispel
Ill-luck. On leaving the Columbia the
Hercules, being assisted by the tug
Vallula, the towing chain parted oil
Ko. 4 buoy and tlie raft drifted a mile
Inshore before bping picked up. Then
Fhe ran into a big blow and Captain
Titchworth, of the Hercules, reported
to a passing steamer Sunday that he
was in a bad blow north of Point Arena
and that the towing chains parted
twice. He intended to make Drake s
Bay to rearrange the chain gear. An
other raft, built by the Hammond In
terests at Stella, will leave there today
to be taken in tow by the tug Sea
Rover for San Francisco.
CEJkTRAL DOCK -IS PROPOSED
Bteamboatmen Favor Unes Ilnving
Common Terminal at Dock Jfo. 2.
To interest through steamboat lines
In making their headquarters at Mu
nicipal Dock No. 2, at East Washing
ton street, so as to centralize the river
business more profitably for operators
and the public as well, is proposed by
some owners.
It is understood one line is ready to
consent to the plan. The proposal is
for one fleet operating to Astoria, an
other to Salem and Corvallis, one to
The Dalles or through to the Upper Co
lumbia, as well as one or two of the
Intermediate services, such as to Kelso,
riiiimii- to e-o in together. In the
first place, through shipments could
be transferred without the added cost
of drayage from one dock to another,
which now falls on the shipper; also
hr would he a more attractive place
tor passengers and the dock could be
looked after by a force no larger than
each line now maintains on their leased
docks. In the interest of the public it
ia nointed out all could find such
rontral dock, while passengers now
wander from one end of the West Side
to the other to locate boats.

to Start Teaching Here.
Co-operation between state and mu

marine engineering and navigation, but
the Chamber of Commerce is unable to
advise them definitely of what will be
done other than the Government has
officially announced its determination
to open a school here.
Some of the men interested are re
ported to have gone to Puget Sound
and San Francisco to obtain entrance
to schools without delay. A few desir
ing to learn seamanship and navigation
contemplate shipping on former Ger
man vessels the Government has taken
over, though in order to sign on men
within the draft ages must display their
registration cards.

GHAHNELWORKSUHE
New Harbors Bill Calls for 30
Feet of Water in Columbia.
MAINTENANCE IS FIXED
Senators McNary and Poindexter
Will Ask Survey lor 4 0-Foot
Channel From Portland
and Vancouver to Sea.
OREGONIAK NEWS BUREAU. Wash-
in s-ton. Julv 10. As reported by tne
Senate commerce committee today, the
river and harbor bill carries the iden
tical appropriations for Oregon and
Washington which were authorized by
the House bill. Not a dollar 01 new
appropriation is authorized.
Senator Chamberlain, a memoer m
the commerce committee, obtained a
change in phraseology of the appro
priation for the Columbia and wniam
ette below Portland to insure the ex
nenditure of a portion of the $300,000
appropriated in reducing shoals be
tween Brookfield and the mouth to
maintain the present uniform depth of
30 feet. In 1912 Congress authorized
a 30-foot channel from Portland to the
sea. and this depth was once attained,
but shoaling on several bars in the
estuary reduced this channel in. some
places to 27 feet, but they have since
been dredged to 30 feet. The amend
ment will insure a continuous 30-foot
channel from Portland to the mouth of
the river. No additional appropriation
for this dredging is necessary.
Senator Chamberlain did not succeed
in getting into the bill the appropria
tion of $975,000 to complete the north
jetty, and it also appears that the com
mittee failed to adopt any of the
amendments proposed by Senator Mc
Nary.
At the time Senator McNary was
heard by the committee he was assured
his amendment authorizing a survey
looking to a 40-foot chaTinel from Port
land to the sea would be Incorporated
but the amendment is not there. Sen
ator McNary will offer his amendment
In the Senate when the river and harbor
bill comes up for consideration.
Senator Poindexter today introduced
a similar amendment calling for a sur
vey looking to a 40-foot channel from
Vancouver to the sea.
An amendment was adopted author
izing a survey of the east channel of
Coos River.
CAPTAIN CONQUERS FIRE
GASOLINE SCHOONER Rl'STLER HAS
NARROW ESCAPE AT SEA.
Sack of Floor Smothen Flame for
Moment Until Crew Can Battle
Fire From Engine-Room.
MARSH FIELD. Or., July 10. (Spe
cial.) The gasoline schooner Hustler,
Captain David Colvin, had a narrow
escape from being- burned at sea, en
route from Rogue River to Coos Bay.
The Rustler was hugging the coast
to avoid the heavy northwest wind,
and when off Francport, below Port
Orford, one of tho engines which had
been giving trouble backfired when
being primed and set the engine-room
on fire. The floor had considerable
oil on it, and the room was filled with
flames, which drove the engineer on
deck.
Captain Colvin saved the craft by
throwing a sack of flour obtained from
the galley into the engine-room, smoth
ering the fire temporarily, until the
large extinguisher could be used. Cap
tain Colvin sustained some minor burns
and several bad bruises. The boat was
not much damaged.
