COST WOULD BE MILLION City Commissioner Harbor Sajs, I Addition to federal Aid. State, City and Coantr and Port of fort land Could Assist. Co-operation of the state and county an4 aa appropriation by Contrtit of IS'.e U sought by A. L. Barbur. Cmmlwlonr in chare of the Depart- west of Public Work, for the devel orirent of North Portland by dredging Columbia Slough for lt entire length In order to provide an adequate outlet for sewerage and drainage facilities, aa well aa a water outlet for Industrial purposes. It Is estimated that the coat of the undertaker will be tl.oos.ooe. The city, county and state, aa well aa the Tort of Portland, will be asked to contribute a proportionate share to ward the coat of the Improrcment. rkaaael Mmmt Be Das. The city has already expended tZS.- ta a preliminary Investigation of the project, making- maps, collecting data and procuring photograph. Let tera have been sent members of Ore sTon't delecation In Congress reouest lar their support of a bill providing a Federal appropriation of 1509 000. If ts expected that a bill will be Intro duced In Congress at an early date au thorlxlnc a aurrey of the feasibility of the project by United Slates engl Beera. It Is proposed to straighten the alignment of Columbia Slough from point near Its present mouth to Blue Lake, which lies about two miles wes of the month of the Sandy River, by dredging. The proposal Involves dredg Ing a channel from 200 to 100 feet In width with a depth of 14 feet or more. It la contemplated to use Blue Lake aa a settling basin for the waters from Columbia Hirer during hlrh water. I'urtng low water the surplus waters of Sandy Klver can be divert ed along the hillside and then dumped Into Blue Lake, thereby Insuring flow of live water In the Columbia Slough at all times. Cast ef Work Great. Although detailed estimate have ot been prepared for the entire work a sufficient amount of surveying and Investigation has been done to permit a tentative estimate to be made. The approximate cost of the dredging op erations alone. Improving the channel from the mouth of Columbia Slough through Blue Lake and on to the Columbia River has been estimated at fl.eoo.eoe. In a brief discussing the project. Commissioner Barbur says this work could be undertaken under the Juris diction of the Port of Portland, to whom the authority waa granted by the last Legislature. "With this dredging ef Columbia Plough." says Mr. Barbur In his brief, "sewers could be constructed for th Peninsula district In small units, aa the necessity would arise and as soon as the property owners would desire tccna. Argasaeat la Presented. la addition to the proportionate eeat of dredging operations, no heavy preliminary burden would be Imposed roa the property owners, such as was contemplated by the larga expensive Intercepting sewea which waa contem plated by the preceding administration. Furthermore, there ta a demand at this time for the Improvement of Colum bia Slough aa a waterway to facilitate Industrial development tn. North Port land. This would Justify the Port of Portland paying a proportion of the cost. "With Columbia Slough open to river traffic, boats could enten North Tort land harbor from the Willamette River n the west, aa well a from the Co lumbia River en the east. and. as an assistance to this traffic. It would be only Just and proper that the Govern ment should stand Its Just proportion Iri the Improvement of Columbia Slough as a waterway. -At least f $00,000 should be appro priated for this use by Congress. This amount could be made subject to the tata of Oregon, the Port of Portland and the sewer district within the city of Portland and the drainage district ef the county co-operating with a like amount la proportion to their benefits. DOCK SPACE HERE CHECKED City to B Prepared If Government Calls for Cargo Facilities. Through the Chamber of Commerce data are being compiled showing the amount of wheat on storage here for the Government and the docks where It Is held, also the amount on each. When full tabulations are made It la proposed to have the Commission of Public Docks complete the summary with a statement aa to the freight held on Its docks, the aim being to as certain what space Is to be bad and what will be available In another month for cargo. Aa regards the wheat. It la being grcund Into flour rapidly and In a short time much mors space may be relin quished that ts now used for the cereal. Should the Government, through Its re organisation of railroad transportation. call on Portland to handle a share of trans-Pacific business. It la believed that It ran be met. It ts Just to be prepared with a definite answer, should ocb a request come, that the present check Is being carried out. RIVER IS FALLING STEADILY Stream Down to Feet and Will Go Lower Today. From a stage of 17 5 feet at 8 o'clock yesterday morning the river at Port land fell to 17 feet at i o'clock In the afternoon and at f .10 o'clock last night was down to M.9 feet. There Is every reason to believe that the stream will continue to fall steadily today. Until the It-foot stage 1s reached the last of the lower docks will not be free of water, that being the height at which Ash-street dock, the lowest on the river, la submerged. At Salmon and Taylor streets work waa under way yesterday of washing away sediment that trad been deposited os) lower levels, and Wednesday the docks between Burnslde and Davis streets were cleaned, while the lower level at Alnsworth dock will be used again In a few days. Klvermen do not believe there will be a third freshet this season. WEST WIND OUSTS DRYDOCK Basin Cacd la Completing Steamer to Make Room for War Ally. To make room for the steamer West Wind, formerly the Hallgrlm. which the Shipping Board baa taken over, the Oregon drydock pontoon waa shifted from Its basin yesterday and the steam er warped Into that space, the drydock being dropped downstream and mooored alongside the Banfleld dock temporarily. The plan Is to establish the drydock and plant on the Spencer property, north of the east approach of the Broadway bridge, so the pres ent property may be used by the Wil lamette Iron ft Steel Works, which In stalls machinery In the new steamers. The Westward Ho. formerly known as the War Sidar. Is being finished at the plant of the Columbia River Ship building Corporation, she having been the first launched there. That company Is prepared to turn out Its own boilers snd auxiliary machinery. The War Ally, the last launched by the North went Steel Company, will be moved down to the Willamette Iron ft Steel Works today or tomorrow to be com pleted. She will take the berth vacated csterday by the West Wind. 8 MORE SHIPS ORDERED bOVKHSF.VT LETS CONTRACTS rOR OTIIKR WOOD EX VESSELS. Wiles SMpsellaiag Cssaaaar aad saaarafrsan Brse. Will Balld Fsar Addltlsaal Carriers. Contracts for eight wooden steamers waa yesterday's apportionment ef new work by the Government In the Ore gon district, four vessels being placed with the Wilson Shipbuilding Company, at Astoria, and four with Somarstrora Brothers, at Columbia City. The Wil son plant held three contracts pre viously and Somarstrom Brothers bad been awarded four last year. As the Coast Shipbuilding Company and the Peninsula Shipbuilding Com pany. both of Portland, recently closed four additional contracts each, ao th ndlvldual plants will turn out a tola of eight wooden steamers for the Gov rnment. there have been 1 contracts placed In the Oregon district for wood n carriers In about a month. It la dmttted that "at least 30 steel steam era" have been ordered In that tlm from the Northwest Steel Company and Columbia River Shipbuilding Corpora tion. according to Joseph R. Bowles. president of the former, on his return from Washington last month. So It 1 reasoned that In the demand for new tonnage Oregon la not being over looked, and there are new yards ready, as well as established yards awaiting to Increase their facilities, that will afford the Emergency Fleet Corpora tlon much additional capacity for turn ing out carriers. It Is estimated that the Interna tlonal Shipbuilding Company, also lo cated at Columbia City, can take four contracts this year, and probably six. while as many may go to the Klernan ft Kern Shipbuilding Company here. Then there Is the Oceania Shipbuilding Company, which has announced Ita In tentlon to start In a few days on I yard at Mllwaukle. and yarda already at work have promised In several cases to take more contracts and In crease the number of waya now main talned. The steel plants engaged In building 8100-ton steamers, the Northwest and Columbia River, are enlarging their plants. More dock space la being pro vided by the latter, which will also sdd another machine shop. - and the three waya In use will be Increased to five or six. Each establishment has about 20 contracts that It Is planned to finish by July. 191. YAQCIN'A JETTY TO BE BOLT Extension Contract Let to Portland Firm for $393,000. NEWPORT. Or, Jan. . (Special.)

VESSEL READY FOR SEA Chief Engineer .Removed: Practi cally New Crew Shipped; None of Old Force Arrested; Trouble H Is Doe to Inexperience. ASTORIA, Or, Jan. I. (SpeclaL ) Repairs to the machinery of the steamer P. A. Kilburn have been completed. The vessel was Inspected this afternoon by deputy Federal Inspectors of hulls and boilers. Edhofer and Weldln. and pro nounced seaworthy. An assistant engi neer and oiler are to arrive tonight to complete . the crew and the steamer will probably go to aea tomorrow. So far as known here there will be no further Investigation or tne mi burn's troubles and the impression ap pears to be growing among the offi cials that much -of the trouble was occasioned by wear and tear on ma chinery that had not been properly kept ud and the operation or tne craft by an engine-room crew; a portion of which comprised Inexperienced men. The Investigation that has been In progress for three days for the Do partreent of Justice haa ended and It developed nothing that would throw suspicion of foul play on any member of the crew. No arrests have been made and none are expected. The sensational report published In a local paper that five men had been taken Into custody was not only baseless, but was In direct violation of the Federal censorship. It la true that the steamer's pumps went wrong In a mysterious manner, one of the seacocks was left partially open and flooded the hold to a death of four or five feet and the fresh water drained from at least one of the tanks, but the responsibility has not been placed.. There was practically an entire new crew In the engine-room when the Kilburn sailed from here on last Sunday evening. The chief engineer had . been removed and several other men. Including two assistant engineers and most of the oilers, walked out. Some of the members of the new crew are said to have been without previous experience. One report received yesterday by Federal authorities was that an In vestlgatlon had disclosed that a pump rod had been sawed almost half in two and that certain check valves had been tampered with. To replace most of the engine-room force others have been sent from here and an assistant engineer left Seattle last night to Join the ves sel so she can go to sea today. Master Mechanic Martlnonl. of the Emerald line, which owns the vessel, will go to sea as chief engineer. Marine Notes. Five steamers were aaalgaed to float the ateamer Sarah Dlx from t rank Thome s meadow, on Laka River, yeaterday. and up to a late hour last night no report had been received aa to whether they were successful.

E SIGHT STEAMER TO PLY BETWEES PORTLAND AND SALEM. Pomona Mentioned aa Vessel That Will Be Put ea Ras Schedule ts Be Effective January IS. Night steamer service to Salem by the Oregon City Transportation Com pany has been decided on as a result of a petition from Salem. The busl ness men there asked for such accom modatlon and In return promised sup port that will warrant the departure. Officials of the line plan to start the first trip about January 15, though that will depend on water conditions. The schedule practically decided on provides for the steamer Pomona being used first and ehe will leave Portland at 8 o clock at night. The run wiu be made through to Salem without stops, except In the locks at Oregon City. Returning, she will depart from Salem about 8:30 o'clock In the morn ing and make no stops on the way. By that system there will be a dally steamer In each direction Independent of the steamer Grahamona, which will continue to ply to Corvallls every other day. The new Salem service will make It oosslble for Portland firms to fill orders and make delivery at any time during the day, and the shipments will go forward that night so Salem bouses will receive delivery early the follow Ing day. If the railroad service Is curtailed as a consequence of the Government now directing operations, the new steamer schedule will be especially ad vantageous. In any event, it will be more desirable than the present sched ule, which provides -for a dally serv ice to Salem, but all way landings are included, and for that reason much time is lost. Since early in September the steam boat service on the Upper Willamette has been Interrupted frequently, and for long stretches, due, first, to repairs to the locks, and then by freshet con dltlons. But this month is expected to witness the last material drawback, and it is regarded: certain the proposed night service will be dependable. Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. ASTORIA. Or., Jan. 8.
