MYSTERY IF OCEAN
fate of Chehalis May Never
Be. Known.
GENERALLY BELIEVED LOST
iarkentlne Is Long Overdue From
Philippines to Willapa Harbor,
and She Is Considered Be-
yond Reasonable Hope.
Today the barkentine Chehalis will be
111 -days, out from Cebu, Philippine
Islands, and unless she reaches her des
tination. Willapa Harbor, within a very
few days she will be given up for lost.
Portland shipping and marine Insurance
men for the past week have considered
the Chehalis a "goner." At Sputh Bend,
however", some hope is still entertained.
She is more ihan a month overdue-
The Chehalis is owned by the Simpson
Lumber Company, of San Francisco. Her
;aptaln is Edgar Simpson, youngest son
of Captain A. M. Simpson, president of
the company. Another son of the well
ftnown lumber and mill man is also on
board. Eight or "nine men compose the
crew.
"What has happened to the barkentine
:an only be conjectured. It may have
been a typhoon In which she sprung a
heavy leak and swamped, or a sudden
blast which took out the masts and left
her helpless. A dozen other causes have
been suggested, but unless she comes in
ander a jury rig in a short time It is
probable that her fate will never be
known. She was coming in ballast to
take a cargo of lumber.
Built at Hoqulam. Wash., in 1S91, the
"hcballs Is well known all along the Pa
cific Coast. In 1S92, at the centennial cel
ebration of the discovery of the Colum
bia River at Astoria, the Chehalis took
the part of the old shlp Columbia. She
has been in the lumber trade almost con
tinuously. On October 22, 19M, she sailed
'rom Coos Bay with a cargo of lumber
'.or Cebu. She left the Philippine port
January 23, and has not been reported.
One sailing vessel was 145 days in making
the voyage from a point near Cebu, and
irrlved safely- after being given up for
iost. This, however, was an exceptional
?ase. The Chehalis is a soft wood vessel,
li feet long, with 40 feet beam and a
jross tonnage of CM tons.
BtflLD FLOAT A BLOCK LOXG
Captain Crowe Leases Property and
Will Make Xew Landing Place.
Captain Albert Crowe, of Anderson &
Crowe, yesterday leased from the First
National Bank the waterfront between
Stark and Oak streets. This adjoins the
city landing at the foot of Stark street.
Captain Crowe intends to begin Imme
diately on the construction on a float
which will reach the length of the block,
and will be 20 feet wide. The outer edge
of this will reach the harbor line S3 feet
from shore. Between the float and the
shore will be room for mooring house
boats. It . Is Captain Crowe's intention
to make the float a general landing place
for launches plying to the Exposition
grounds. This piece of valuable water
front Is now scarcely utilized at all.
City Engineer AVanzer has begun upon
the construction of the city landing at
tho .foot of Stark street, the lumber for
the. float and gangway being already upon
the ground. As this landing Is but the
width of Stark street. It Is considered
that many more launches and other small
craft will want a landing place, in the
vicinity than can be accommodated at the
tree city landing.
BUFORD IS IX XO DAXGER
Transport Safe Unless Storm Ap
pears Soldiers All Off.
WASHINGTON. May 13.-Gcneral Corbln
at Manila has cabled the following ac
count of the stranding of the army trans
port Buford:
"Colonel Philip Reade reported the Bu
ford with a part of the Nineteenth Regl
mont. United States Infantry, on board,
while running at full speed, struck a
:oral reef four miles from Malabang. The
Navy has lent assistance, but at latest
accounts the Buford was not off. He
reported' no , leakage and her condition
not precarious unless a storm sets In, of
which then are no signs. The transport
Thomas leaves today to give assistance
and bring up the Twenty-third Regiment,
United States Infantry which was to come
on .the Buford. The cable communication
with Mindanao is very uncertain. The
Thomas will be necessarily delayed sev
eral days on her voyage We'll hasten
her departure in every possible way under
the. circumstances."

ASTORIA. Or., May 13. (Special.)-!
though the damaged portion of the
Weather Bureau cable at the mouth of
the river was picked up and buoyed by
the 'lighthouse tender Columbtee yester
day afternoon, it is not probable that any
attesapt will be made to repair the break
before next Tuesday. .The cover kig of the
cable had been torn oK for a distance of
fully tea feet, and twoof the wire strand
were broken. It Is now. however, clear
. i. - nnv.n.. hlTMKci oil tho trou-

Cold Weather Injures Crops.
SALEM. Or.. May 13. (Special.) Reports
of the poor condition of the growing hop
crop continue to come to this city, and
it seems that the cold weather is de
creasing the prospect for a good crop. A.
D. Jerman, of Silverton, writes that ho
expects to harvest a smaller crop than
last year, and has one 52-acre yard which
will produce nothing at all. He says, other
yards In his vicinity arc no better than
his., His young yards and those that
were lightest last year, will bear best
this year.
There is nothing doing in the local mar
ket, but It is reported that Henry Miller,
of Aurora, has bought the Herman Smldt
crop of 33 bales at 23 cents and the Kell
crop of 31 bales at 26 cents.
