Until Tides Change
In tho fow soundings thnt hnvo
boon obtained on tho Coos Hay

bolng inado, it 'la said tho lead lino
has shown a goodly depth of water
with but a very slight ehnngo over
what It was at tho tlmo tho dredgo
Mlclilo flulshod hor season's work
and loft for tho north.
A second attempt was mado yes
terday to secure soundings. In tho
Tramp Donald Chnrlcsou and Vorllu
Parkor woro ahlo to got out on tho
bar about 3:ao p. m. for tho first
rounding, and very Bhortly after
this tho darkness had set In onough
to mako it hard to road thulr Instru
ments. Now a wait of threo or four days
will havo to occur boforo furthor
soundings will ho mado, whou tho
tides change. At this tlmo of year,
with strong obb tldos and tho hoavy
flow from tho river and tho inlets,
it is dangerous to tako a small boat
onto tho bar at any other than flood
tldo.
Howovor tho first reports of tho
soundings which show a good deptn
of water remaining, Is encouraging,
eBpocloliy Inasmuch as. thoy aro bo
lug taken immediately after ono of
tho worst storms than ran bo ex
pected this wlntor.
As soon as tho figures have boon
obtained on tho bar they will bo
platted on n map and forwarded tn

charge of tho work.
