6 THE SUNDAY OREGOyiAX. PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 13, 1914. JHREE CONTRACTS TOTAL $350,000 ; Willamette Iron and Steel ' Works to Repair Santa Catalina in Hurry. 300 MEN TO BE EMPLOYED : Chamber of Commerce Co-operates in Landing $300,000 Job for Portland Concern to Prove Ability of Local Yards. Three contracts, aggregating more than $350,000, will Do under way during the Winter at the plant of the Wt'.lam-....-ette Iron & Steel Works, the largest of which, involving approximately $300,000, will be to completely repair .the Grace liner Santa Catalina. which -ywaa badly damaged by fire October . 3 8, when she was about abreast of Co lumbia City on her way from New York to Portland. Another contract Is to repair and overhaul light vessel No. 67, costing$15,000, with several thou sands to be spent for optional items. The third is building of the new Gov ernment dretige Monticello for about $30,000. .' At 12 o'clock yesterday the Willam ette Iron & Steel Works took posses sion of the Santa Catalina and at 1 o'clock men swarmed aboard to begin the work of tearing away the dam aged superstructure and cleaning ihe ship of injured parts, so that repairs v would not be impeded. The contract Is - expected to be finished In four months ,and close to 300 men will be given -employment, half of them being skilled mechanics and the others helpers and laborers. Hardly had the ship been taken over before applications were being received, and men will be placed ..as rapidly as the progress of work warrants. Hall to Be Cleaned. The company had been engaged when - the damaged steamer was towed here . to strip her engines and boilers, so as to have them in readiness for bidders, but it happened that the proposal of tho company was accepted without .other bids being asked. It may be two months before the Santa Catalina is lifted on the Port of Portland drydock - t St. Johns, where she will remain for a few weeks so her hull may ba thoroughly gone over and cleaned and painted before being lowered again. ..." As negotiations for the job went ahead encouragingly and the Port of ...Portland Commission did its share in promising to have the drydock avail able when needed and for the required - time, advantage was taken of the op portunity to compile estimates for ma terial, and when the marine insurance - interests agreed to the terms, orders were placed at once, so Bert C. Ball, vice-president and general manager of the Willamette plant, says there should . not bo any delay in receiving ship ments. Numerous plates will have to be removed, some to be straightened . and replaced, while others will be re newed, and the superstructure, con staining quarters for officers, the salon, 7 .-galley and other compartments, will be rebuilt throughout and refurnished and equipped so that the ship will be . turned back to her owners in the same condition as she was before the fire. I-lghtveaatel Due Soon. Lightvessel No. 67 was to have been 'relieved from her station on Umatilla . Reef November 12 by the relief light vessel, so she will make this port this week to have her repairs started. The -dredge Monticello, which is being built ; under the direction of Colonel Mc Kinstry, is intended for service on the Cowlitz, Lewis and Clatskanie rivers, and is to be completed In six months. She will replace the Cowlitz, which is regarded as obsolete. Because of the indications that there - would be a number of unemployed in the city during the Winter, coupled with the pride to be felt in securing 5 such an important Job for a Portland plant, the Chamber of Commerce and other interests have co-operated with the Willamette Iron & Steel Works re garding the Santa Catalina's repairs. It was felt that the opportunity was . at hand to prove that big marine jobs can be taken care of here as well as elsewhere from the standpoint of speed .. as well as completeness. Captain Logan, representing the London Salvage Association; Captain - L. Veysey, Lloyd's surveyor at Port land, and Captain Pillsburg and Charles H. Williamson, of San Francisco, In surance adjusters, have been constantly at work on the ship and cargo details The surveyors thoroughly satisfied themselves as to the ability of the - Willamette Iron & Steel Works to han dle the job before recommending that the contract be let. DOXKEr?EXCIE IN STEAMER Sjieilei Makes Debut With Logging and Propelling Gear. In the sternwheel steamer Speilei, which Custom-House officials meas ured yesterday at St. Helens, the Lewis River Boom & Logging Company Is said to have a vessel that navigates over bars and dry land as well as In deep water. She was turned out at the yard of the St. Helens Shipbulld- ing Company and is 76.3 feet long, with a beam of 24 feet and depth of hold of four feet. Her gross tonnage is 75.92 and net registered tonnage 65.41. Her null is covered with four-inch plank- . ing. -unning in width from 24 to 82 inches and 72 feet long, while heavy timbers have been used throughout, calculated to take care of wear and tear when she scrapes over shoals. 9 A powerful donkey engine, such as . is used in extensive logging opera-i tlons, furnishes power, the wheel being driven by means of a sprocket and chain. When the steamer is stopped by shallow water it is proposed to haul her ahead by means of a cable made -fast to a "deadman" or other purchase ashore, using. the donkey, which Is also -to be available for hauling heavy logs ' from the bank into the stream and fuch purposes.

DANGERS ARE ELIMINATED Mechanism Insures Craft Striking Water on Even Keel and Can Bo Operated by Only One Man, Avers Clyde Parker. Clyde E. Parker, first officer of the steamer Beaver, of the San Francisco & Portland fleet, believes that he has hit a device that eliminates much. If not all, the difficulty of lowering a boat at sea, so that It strikes the water on an even keel. Captain Parker, for he has master's papers though acting as chief officer, recently patented a self acting brake mechanism ' to be at tached to gear for lowering and rais ing lifeboats on vessels. It is probable it will soon be Installed on at least one steamer for a thorough trial. The existing system requires at least two men to lower a boat with hand gear, while a number are customarily detailed to haul on the falls when a boat is to be hoisted aboard again. Cap tain Parker's patent allows of either power or hand gear being used, but In either case one person controls the en tire operation. Winch In Tried Out. Not hong ago the first winch was set up aboard the steamer Beaver, and mariners witnessing its workings say it unquestionably fulfills every claim made by the inventor. In explaining the details of the machine. Captain Parker says: - "Experience has taught me that the essential features in lowering a boat are: First, to be able to control both falls so that the boat will take the water on an even keel; second, to keep the falls clear and free to run at all times: third, a method for lowering rapidly when the occasion arises; fourth, that the whole operation be under the control of one person. "My advice is especially adapted for lowering' boats, and special provision is made for keeping the falls clear and free to run at all times, and the device is so constructed as .to be under the control of one person atatloned In full view of the boat. Details Are Explained. "This device is fitted with a double cable carrying drum, formed with a central brake-band receiving flange, which accommodates both falls, around which takes the brake-band, one end of which, through the medium of a cross pin, connects with one end of a knuckle, tho other end to' the bell crank lever fixedly mounted on a cross shaft journaled in bearings on the side frames, one end of the knuckle-shaft being extended and provided with a hand lever for releasing brake. 'Mounted on the lower end of the bell-crank levers there Is an adjustable shaft, carrying two sheaves, and the cable passing from the drum around the sheaves causes the brake to be set aatomatically when strain is applied to the cable, and can be released by the hand lever attached to the knuckie sbaft for hoisting. "Either power or hand gear may be applied. "It can be attached to any type of davit or crane and for the ordinary boats would require a deck space about three feet square, which Is also an im portant feature In passenger ships, where the decks are now crowded with lite-saving equipment." TOXGCE POIXT SCRVEY MADE Government Men Find Depth of 25 Feet and Width of 200 Feet. Not less than 25 feet of water Is the depth of the new Tongue Point crossing channel and at no place Is it less than 200 feet wide, according to a survey made by the United States Engineers, a chart of which was made public yes terday. Complaint had been made from Astoria that the channel was narrow in places and not suitable for the nav igation of deepdraft vessels. Captain Groves, superintendent of dredging for the Port of Portland, who was present during the survey, says the channel has been completed to the depth ordered and the only difficulty he knows of is in a deep place near Tongue Point, where tidal influences are to be con tended with. At the office of Colonel McKinstry, Corps of Engineers. U. S. A., it is said the dredge Clatsop is engaged in the channel and will be retained there as long as is deemed necessary. The fact the channel has a straight course in stead of a winding one, as was the case with the former channel, which was abandoned, is favored by. river pilots. SAIIiORS HELD IJi . PRISOX Thomasina's. Men Jlay Again De clare for Total Abstinence. Four sailors arrested aboard the Rus sian ship Thomasina, Friday afternoon. because of drunken actions that prompt ed Captain Frederickson to cause their arrest, will be detained in jail until the vessel is ready for sea, said the skipper yesterday. One of the men has been aboard the ship nearly three years and it is the first time he has taken a drink in two years, while the others are good men when sober. Captain Frederickson says that two years ago, when the ship was at a small port on the West Coast, the crew under took to run the town because it boasted only three policemen. The first night the sailors were in command, but on their visit next day the minions of the law were reinforced by 20 soldiers and the tars spent several days In jail. On another occasion one of those Involved in Friday's fracas went aboard another vessel drunk and was placed in irons and sent to his own ship, but the key of the irons was not forwarded. He remained manacled for two days, where upon he declared for the drys and held to it until Friday. The Thomasina fin ishes at the Globe mill tomorrow. YEN'DEE'S VOYAGE 4 9 DAYS' French Squarerlgger Makes Fast Time From Newcastle. Captain Charvel, master of the French bark Vendee, which reached the river Wednesday frorri Newcastle, N. S. W., received the. congratulations of the waterfront fraternity yesterday for hav ing sailed the course in 49 days. As the British tramp Lowther Range, now here, was 46 days from Newcastle by way of the Gulf of California to Victo ria, the master of the Vendee feels that his vessel is no mean sailer. The Vendee brought 1740 tons of coal, not having been able to obtain a full cargo, as a colliery where she was to have loaded caught fire and the fuel was obtained from another plant. Cap tain Charvel was here In April, 1912. aboard the Eugene Schneider, and the last visit of the Vendee was in Febru ary, 1913. The vessel will be dis chareed at Astoria this week and comes here to load grain for the United King, dora, being under charter to M. H. Ho user. Marine Notes, Bound here to load another cargo of lumber, the Norwegian steamer Chris tian Bors arrived at San Francisco Thursday from Shanghai and may be in the river the last of the week. After a short stay in Coos Bay, the Government dredge Col. P. S. Michie was reported sailing from there yes terday for Eureka, where she will be engaged for some time deepening the entrance. All repairs having been executed and other details of her dispatch complied with, the steamer Solano sailed yester day for San Francisco. She came here three weeks ago to be repaired after striking at the entrance to Willapa Harbor. Completing a voyage she began Sep tember 24, the Norwegian bark Falls of Afton made the Columbia River yes terday and was picked up by one of the bar tugs at 6:30 o'clock. She Is in ballast and is consigned to G. W. McNear to load wheat. Making another gain of one and three-tenths feet for 24 hours ending at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, the Willamette River here, so it Is fore casted, will -rise today and tomorrow and then probably remain stationary. The gauge yesterday showed six feet above zero. On the American-Hawaiian steamer lowan. arriving last night from New York, are 1000 tons of cargo. She leaves on the return voyage Wednesday and will carry Boston and New York cargo, made up principally of flour, prunes and hops, with the usual miscellaneous assortment. In a message to the Merchants' Ex change from St. Vincent's yesterday it t stated that the British steamei Fernley, from Portland with grain for the United Kingdom, dispatched by Kerr, Gifford & Co.. had reported there with boiler trouble and that she would remain about a week for repairs. Under a new schedule that went into effect last night, the crew of the O.-W. R. &" N. steamer Harvest Queen snend .today here and the vessel leaves at 8 o'clock tonight for Astoria. Formerly she departed Saturday night and re mained at Astoria until Monday morn ing. Other weekday trips are un changed. Robert W. Baxter, vice-president of the Alaska Steamship Company, Is re ported to have opened negotiations for the purchase of the steamer Kansas City and is now inspecting her at San Francisco. The vesdel was sold not long ago by th'e San Francisco & Port land Steamship Company. If taken over by the Alaska Steamship Company, she is to be operated between Puget Sound and the North. , E. G. McMluken. general passenger agent of the North Pacific Steamship Company, reached the city yesterday from his San Francisco headquarters and is to journey to-Puget Sound and Spokane territory, returning here about the last of the week. Today Mr. Mc Micken goes as far as Astoria on the steamer Geo. W. Elder, which sails for Coos Bay and Eureka. As the Japanese steamer Asama Maru is fully loaded with lumber for Shang hai, she will shift through the bridges this afternoon from Inman-Poulsen's on her way to sea. She is being dispatched by the China Import & Export Lum ber Company and may be the last cargo sent across the Pacific by that firm during the European war. Her cargo measures 2,600,000 feet and is valued at $23,400. Principally to be cleaned and painted, the "Big Three' steamer Bear was lift ed on the public drydock at St. Johns yesterday afternoon. The tail-shaft of the vessel will also be drawn and the work may be completed so as to lower the liner into the water before night. Cargo with which the Swayne & Hoyt steamer Alvarado was cleared yesterday consists of 800,000 feet of lumber and 200 tons of grain for San Francisco and 75 tons of merchandise for Coos Bay.

SALEM DEFEATS EUGENE FAST BUT ONE-SIDED CONTEST PLAYED OX WET FIELD. Game Ia Begun With Rush and Two Touchdowns Are Made In About 7 Minutes Final Score Ia 26 to O. SALEM, Or., Nov. 14. (Special.) Salem High School football team de feated the Eugene High eleven here this afternoon in a fast contest, played on a wet, slippery field, by the one sided score of 26 to 0. The local high school rushed the Eu gene boys off their feet in the first quarter, crossing the visitors' goal line within three minutes after the opening of the contest and adding a second score about four minutes later. A third touchdown was added in the second period and a fourth in the final quar ter. Salem's advance was characterized by long gains on passes and sensational runs on fake shift plays that were used frequently. Quarterback Downie, who did the passing for the local team and made most of its long runs, was the big man of the game, his individual work being far above that of the other participants. Halfback Rinehart and Captain Keene, at end, also showed up well for the Salem team. For Eugene. Wigmore and Phinney did the best work. At no stage of the game did the Eu gene team endanger the Salem goal. Coach Johnson's boys seemed much lighter than usual and appeared al most helpless against the big Cherry City eleven. Continual argument over the decisions of Umpire Mullen caused frequent interruptions in an otherwise fast and clean game. A feature of the game was the shak ing hands by the rooters between halves. Each school formed a line across the field and then the two lines marched together and each man shook hands with the man directly opposite. The best of feeling prevailed through out the day, Salem giving the Eugene rooters a reception this evening. More than 400 Eugene supporters attended the contest, coming in a special train. Brown and Harvard Flay Tic. CAMBRIDGE, Mass.. Nov. 14. Har vard's second and third string of play ers, with one or two regulars, were held to a scoreless tie by Brown today.
