SPEAKS WELL OF COOS BAY Washington, Oct. 15. "Speaker Cannon will not appoint to the rivers and harbors committee a member of congress from any state which is di rectly interested in securing appro priations for the improvement of waterways. In other words, if a state has a project to advance before the committee, no member from that state will bo named on the rivers and harbors committee." This was the statement by tho private secretary to the Speaker Busbey today. This means that If Jones of Wash ington succeeds, as It is reported he desires, in getting a place on the ways and means committee, the Pa cific northwest can have no repre- handles appropriations most vital to , she 's equipped its development. Congressman Grovesnor of Ohio, McCIeary of Minnesota, Babcock of Weatherman E. A. Beals, tells Portland reporter of new lumber schooner and other items: (Portland Telegram.) Through District Forecaster E. A. Beals, who returned from an Inspec tion trip to Coos Bay last night, it is learned that the C. A. Smith Lum ber company, of Marshfleld, has just launched a new steamer at Newport News which will carry 2,250,000 feet of lumber on a draft of 18 feet. The vessel has been christened the Nan Smith, and will be brought around for service on this coast in the lum ber trade, In that she draws three or four feet less than any other steamer ever built, for the amount of cargo han dled, the steamer Is entirely different from any thing recently turned out at the shipyards. Her deck is cov ered with large hatches, making It possible to shove lumber Into the hold by the carload at one swing of the powerful derricks with which In a day or two, or just as soon as she takes on stores, the Nan Smith will sail for Marsh field. She is expected to reach her Af- ivicir.nd,, Pnrtio f ironona m ifh 1 aesunauon in mo nexi ou uays. of Michigan, Robertson of Louisiana. ir looking over the steamer the Dalzell of Pennsylvania, members of Hammond dumber company, of San tho ways and means committee, are , Francisco, decided to have one built not to bo members of the six-.actly like her at the same yards, tleth congress.

Up Slayer Refused Revision of Sentence. Lelpsic, Oct. 15. The supremo court today rejected tho appeal of Karl Rau, formerly of Washington, D. G.t for revision of a sentence con demning him to death for tho mur der of his mother-in-law, Frau Moll tor. An appeal for a new trial will now bo made on technical grounds. past years would bo filled by some member from Oregon, it having been customary to alternate between those stntes. The new ruling by the sneak er, however, makes thl3 impossible. "The speaker believes tho rivers and harbors members should ho like a jury, viewing proposals for appro priations In a disinterested frame of mind, which is impossible for a mem ber from tho state directly interest ed," Secretary Busbey said. Tho announcement dissipates tho hopes of Ellis of the Second Oregon district and Hawley of the First dis trict, of appointment on that committee.

Chicago, Oct. 15. That a $30, 000,000 will contest was argued and settled out of court, was disclosed yesterday when the last testament of Morris, tho packer, was filed for pro bate. As a result of this remarkable situation, the principal provision of tho will has been nullified.

Every town Is growing by leaps and bounds. New industries are being started and costly buildings erected. He went down on th e steamer Al- lianco and camo home overland by way of Drain. Along tho stage road hundreds of settlers were mot headed for the bay to catch their winter sup ply of fish. Each family was pro vided with barrels in which to salt down tho salmon. At ono of the settlements along tho route the only hotel In miles re fused to prepare breakfast for tho passengers on tho stage because they arrived at 8:30 a. m half an hour after regular breakfast hours. Beals and his companions went out on a foraging trip and got a supply of eggs and vegetables, which they cooked behind n clump of bushes on the grassy bank of a sparkling brook, and enjoyed tho finest meal they over nto. Tho hotel proprietor was willing to accommodate tho lumen travelers, but ho was afraid the cook would declare a strlko If he asked him to work overtime Portland, Ore., Oct. 15. For the purpose of ascertaining the necessity of extending the West side fire limits to the harbor line of the Willamette, members of the council yesterday af ternoon made an Inspection of the water front In company wU1 Harbor Master Speier. The party left about 2 o'clock in the harbor master's launch and were on the river several hours. Tho councllmen taking the trip were Annand, Beldlng, Concan non. Dunning, Kellaher and Rush light. After making an examination of the wooden docks along the water front the councllmen were unani mously of the opinion that these structures should be replaced by brick, steel or concrete. It is prob able that what they saw will In fluence them to vote In favor of the ordinance that Belding is having prepared extending the fire limits to tho river. This measure Is being drawn up by City Attornev Kava naugh and will bo presented at the next meeting of the council. "There is no reason why we should allow frame dockr to be con structed Immediately back of rows of brick buildings," declared Beld ing after the party returned. "We never before realized thl3 so clearly as today after seeing the exact con ditions along the river. Wharves of concrete or other fire proof mnterlnl would greatly reduce the risk of conflagrations along the river ana when the entire water front bef"Tie lined with them they would bo a pride to the city. "One or two of the docks that wo saw are In very bad condition. It might be advisable for the city to condemn these after the new ordi nance is passed. In tho Interests of the city's extensive shipping the citizens should all unite for the Im provement of the water front." While making tho trip the council- men discussed somewhat the advan tage of a concrete wall along the harbor line. This Is another recom mendation that has been made by Captain Speir and may be taken up after the passage of the Beldlng or dinance. Another object in making the trip wns to select In a general way loca tions for five or six anchorage buoys that tho harbor master desires placed In the river. These buoys, costing about $500 each, would be for the convenience of vessels enter ing the harbor and are desired by all shinners. The councilmon favored tho plan to Install tho buoys and It will prob nbly also come up at the next meet ing of the council In tho form of an appropriation ordinance. &&&&m&?3w&$ft ROBERT MARSDEN COOS BAY AGENT OLD CROW HERMITAGE YELLOWSTONE CANADIAN CLUB JAS.
