BREAKWATER
BEATS RECORD
Arrives On Coos Bay From
Portland In One Hour
Less Time.
BRINGS MANY PASSENGERS
Cites Tramp Vessel Near Cascade
Head In Trouble Good
Trip.
What few people who were left
in town after the Coos River hegira
of yesterday were at the Breakw.itcr
dock last night to see tho boat lie
up on her second trip to Coos Bay,
rtitur having beaten her previous
good record of 22 hours steaming by
an hour. It seemed tho whole city
was out to welcome tho boat and
meet friends they wero expecting.
The crowd which stood about was
brimming over with good nature,
and several wags got busy as the
passengers came off tho ship. Among
the quips wero: "The only seven
story brick hotel in the city," "Free
bus to the Blanco," "Trains every
half hour to Plat B." "Boware of
microbes."
Tho Breakwater left Portland
Monday night at 8:10, and tied at
her Marshfleld dock last night at
9:30, 25 hours and 20 minutes out.
The time from Portland to Astoria
was considered something of a rec
ord, it being made in G hours and
10 minutes.
There was a smooth sea and clear
weather on tho trip, and tho only
delays were at Astoria for loading
freight and at sea about ten miles
west southwest of Cascade Head,
where tho Henrlk Ibsen, of Bergen,
a tramp ship, was sighted and found
to be in trouble. She was spoken
and it was learned the difficulty was
only a hot bearing, and she had that
cooled In about an hour and proceed
ed on her way.
Tho officers and crow were as
highly pleased over this trip as they
were over the maiden effort, and tho
six-weeks' delav.
chief engineer said the machinery
worked oven bettor than bofore.
Tho pcoplo of Coos Bay aro com
ing to appreciate tho fact that this
section Is now receiving good trans
portation service, tho host tn tho
history of tho country. When, with
out rnilroads, passengers can roach
horo from Portland In 24 hours, peo
plo will not mls3 tho coming of tho
railroad as they would Without tho
