Forever setting at rest.unfound ut terances reflecting on the seaworthi ness of Oregon-built wood steamers of the Ferris type is the experience of the steamer Aiken, constructed by the Grant Smith-Porter Ship Company", which returned Friday from a 24-hour test at sea. part of the time In a 75 mile southerly gale. Captain H. F. Astrup, of the Columbia River pilots, engaged in handling ves sels between Astoria and the sea, has made a report of the trial to Captain K. D. Parsons, manager of the associa tion, in which he lauds the Aiken and her performance. The report is as follows: Captain Slakes Report. "I beg to-report that I boarded the steamship Aiken, of Astoria, Tuesday, December 10, at 5 P. M. The ship was then testing her anchors and chain off Astoria. The weather being bad at the time I did not heave up anchor until next morning at 6:15 and proceeded to sea. The bar was moderate with a heavy westerly swell. The ship acted perfectly, no give to l.er in any way. shape or form. Arriving at the light ship I shaped a course southwest by south, which we ran for a distance of 68 miles against a heavy westerly and southwest sea and a strong southwest wind, the ship averaging over seven and a half miles an hour, with the pro peller racing considerably. At 6:35 the wind started in to back o the southward. I turned around and teered northward, figuring on passing 12 miles south of the lightship. At 11:30 P. M. I sighted the lightship three miles to the north of our course. The weather by that time was blowing a heavy gale from the south-southeast. kept the ship off because I could not get her up to the wind, account of he heavy gale and sea, the vessel would not come any higher than east. intended to run th vessel Inside, but by that time the weather waa getting thick and I was afraid that J would not be able to bring the vessel in without getting into trouble. I then laid her off shore, passing a quarter of a mile under the stern of the lightvessel, with a lee helm, englnea working under re duced steam to keep the vessel from racing too heavy. The wind at times reached a velocity of close to 70 miles an hour with an enormous sea running. At 6 A. M. the wind hauled southwest and moderated, enabling us to come back on a southerly course. The weather was still very thick and re mained so until about 10 A. M.. when we sighted North Head. We were then about seven miles south of the light ship, when I kept her off andstarted for the river and arrived in Astoria about 1:45 P. M. No Weakness Shows. 'The vessel during the time she was outside behaved in first-class order. She never shewed any weakness and the engines worked perfectly during all the severe weather we were out in, and I wish to specially commend Chief Engineer Thrusby, in charge, for the splendid way the engines were handled. And I.aleo wish to state that I never worried for one moment over any en gine trouble, knowing that he was in j charge, although the vessel had a very j severe trial. I consider the Aiken a i first-class vessel and a vessel that will ,last for many years If properly taken care of. "In conclusion I wish to state that, considering the heavy weather and all, she made splendid courses and a whole lot .less leeway than I expected under the circumstances, and .1 consider her a first-class ship in every respect." Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. ASTORIA. Or.. Dec. 14. (Special.) As result of the improved weather condition outside the harbor waa cleared of delayed vessels today.

The new steel steamer West Zeda shifted yesterday from the Willamette Iron & Steel Works to the elevator dock, where she will begin working cargo tomorrow In prepare Uion for her official trial trip. The steamer Wahkeena departed laat night for Seattle carrying three 'larger Scotch mi rlne boilers built by the Willamette Iron A Steel Works, Intended for installation In one of the steel freighters building there. Bound for the Pacific en her 24-hour con tinuous run to test all features of her con struction and machinery Installation, the steamer Mattaoan left down last night. Special work having been performed on the new steamer Blue Eagle hero she left last night for Astoria and will be taken over py the Government shortly. The ves sel Is the first ot the fleet building by the George F. Rodgers'Co. Having been constructed at the Grays Harbor yard of the Grant Smith-Porter Ship Company and brought to the company's Portland plant for the Installation ot her machinery, the new wood steamer Itanca was -enrolled here yesterday under the di rection of the North Pacific district of ficials. Delay in receiving positive advices from the Governent relative to the vessels not to bs laid down at 'wood ship plants is thought due to the matter having been re ferred to Edward N. Hurley, head of the Shipping Board, who is in Europe. Until the situation is made plain to Emergency Fioet officials here it will not be known how the reported cancellations are to be executed. There la a conviction among shipbuilders that organized labor bodies will not strike at present as a protest to the last schedule placed in effect by the Shipbuilding Wage Adjustment Board. The probabilities are no action will be taken by the mn until Spring. Members of the Boilermakers' Union did not work yesterday afternoon, adhering to their plan of laboring only 44 hours a week because of their displeasure with the provisions of the scale.
