C. Langfitt. in charge of the Vnlted States Engineers in this district. The report covers the fiscal year ending June 30. 1905. and is made to the' Chief of Engineers at Washington. , From the report it is evident that much work must be done before the best re- ' cults can be obtained. The channel from Portland to the sea requires attention. The Dalles-Celllo Canal -will require an appropriation of 51,250,000 for the next fiscal year, according to the recommen dation of Major Langfitt; -while to carry on the Jetty work at the mouth of the Columbia will require 51,150,000. Money is on hand to begin the con struction of the Cclilo Canal, as Major 3-angfltt reports he has carried over 5237, 020, with which 2500 feet at the upper end may be constructed. The report states that in the region Which will be benefited by the canal is produced 400.000,000 bushels of cereals. 51.500.000 worth of cattle and 1C.000.000 pounds of wool, and that there is also 6.000.000 feet of standing timber. Major iLanglitt reports that 53.779.724 Is his estimate of the total cost of the project, A 25-foot channel at mean low water has been the aim of the engineers in J working on the lower Willamette and- Columbia. The dredge W. S. Ladd from January 11 to April S removed 536.920 cubic yards of earth from the channel, but the one dredge was not enough to carry out the plans of the engineers, and two Port of Portland dredges were cm ployed. Traffic on the Columbia River increased tremendously during the fiscal year, for the Increase was greater than during any of the previous 11 years. In the 12 months 2.6S2.779 tons, valued at 558,056, 911, was carried by all craft, up and down. At the mouth of the Columbia the Jetty extension- is steadily going forward. The tracks have been extended 7576 feet. During October. November and Decem ber portions of the Jetty were washed away. At present 2500 tons of rocks are being received daily. ' A deepening on the bar Is reported, and a scouring action has also been observed, which tends to deepen the channel by natural forces.- The ocean-going dredge. Chinook, removed 245.720 cubic yards of earth while employed on the bar. In November she was brought to the Gov ernment moorings, and in April was laid off. On the "Willamette, above Portland, with which Is included the Yamhill River, were carried 65,947 passengers, and 332,130 tons of freight. Much improvement work has also been done on the Clatskanie, Lewis, Cowlitz and Long Tom Rivers. For the Coast rivers, the Coquille re ceived Improvement work to the extent of $239,997. and there are now eight .feet. of water on the bar at low tide. The north Jetty has been extended. It is pro posed to make it 1570 feet long, and the south Jetty 2700 feet long. Nineteen feet of water at low tide can be found at the entrance to Coos Bav. Here extensive improvements have been made, costing $691,897. The dredging aione cost $40,898. Tillamook and Yaqulna Bays and the Sulslaw River have not been overlooked. The locks at the Cascades cost the Government $47,194. for maintenance. The freight tonnage passing through the locks amounted to 33.1CG tons, valued at $2,285,725. A recommendation for $199,260 xor improvements Is made. Major Langfitt also recommends that $50,000 be appropriated for a combined sucker and dipper dredge to be used in the south part of the district. The report is very voluminous, the summary alone covering some 50 type written pages. This Is the last report wnich .Major Langntt will make from this district, as early in August he will report lor uuty in the office of ChleT Engineers In Washington.

The revenue cutter McCulloch will be of flcjally listed as a cruiser if she stays in Portland long enough.

Two are known as the "tiger boats," as they run to the Milwaukle poolroom es tablishment.
