There are grave doubts entertained sniong shipping men that the ship Wachusrtt, now out H days from Newcastle, N. 8. W for Kshulul, will ever reach her destination. Nothing has been heard of the vessel since she left Newcastle. Reinsurance upon her la now quoted at W per cent. Rein surance on th French bark Kretagne. from Antwerp for San Francisco, is quoted at 15 per cent, and upon the nark Alex McNeil, out 154 daya from Port lilukeley for Fremantle, st 40 per cent. Twenty per cent Is being of fered on the Rrltlsh ship Lansing lit days out from Puget Sound for Port nrle. The Tacoma News says the state fish hatchery at Skokomlsh now has 2,500,- 110 spawn of the August run. "The young fry are looking fine," ald Supt. Plackwell. "In the latter part of this month and through November and December we shall be taking the spawn of the sllversldes and we expect to get not less than 15,000,000. I am having new troughs put In and every ! tradable inch of space will be tilled. W Intend to make It the banner hatcn ery of the state. It has taken time tb put It In ahape but It Is well equipped now and ready to do business with the rest of them " The addition of gasoline engines to sailing craft as auxiliaries to sails is becoming quite common and a San Francisco firm now has the honor of having equipped an entire fleet of for eign-owned vessels engaged In the South Sea, Island trade. The selection of American engines was not made through choice, but only after repeat ed experiments had proved that Ger man and other European machines were Imperfect and Incapable of supplying the power required. A factor that en ters largely Into the proposition Is the fact that with steam as auxiliary pow er an engineer and fireman or firemen are required. With the gasoline en gine, no addition to the ordinary crew of a sailing vessel Is needed, for one man. properly Instructed In the starting of the engine, Is all that la needed, and he ran attend to the whole thing. An. other great expense to which sailing vessels are continually put Is towage. When a vessel of thl class seeks to enter a harbor, a tug Is necessary, par ticularly on this coast, but with aux iliary power she can furl her sails, take on her pilot and go in under her own power, even more advantageously tnan the tug could take her.

Captain William W. Hart. United Slate engineer, hag returned from a tn day' tour of Inspection' of the government works along the coast. He visited Yaqulna bay, Bluslaw. Coos bsy and the works on the Coqullle river. At Yaqulna bay Capta'n Hart reports the. troublesome rock In the channel, on which work has been In progress for three months. Is no longer an element of danger. This rock. which Is pinnacle In form, was about ft) feet long and 12 feet in wiatn. Through the use of about two tons of dvnainlte this rock has been cut down o that there Is now about 12 feet of water over It at low tide, and from 20 tc 21 . ftet at high tide. Work upon this obstruction was stopped by the stormy weather, but will be resumed next aoii In the event that further woik la needed. The Jetty at yaqul na bay. Instead of being beaten down si was reported, was found in good older. Another vessel has been added to those waiting for tldea above Willow Island bar. The laUst addition la the Italian ship EllKa which left Portland on Thursday. The others are the Ger man steamer I'.va, bound for the Ori ent, and the Penthosllea, one of the vessels of the September grain neet. At latest reports they had all gotten clear and were lying at anchor, but J afraid to nigks th attempt to get over until nign wairr, ci wit irvin vur or freshet. With the shoaling of the rlv er, as is evidenced every day by the ships striking on new obstructions. Im- aivdlate action should be taken to turn the Immense ouantlile of wheat and grain of Eastern Oregon and Wash ington through Its natural outlet at As toria rather tlvan have It diverted to the Sound and by rail shipments to the East. This Is one of the most Im oortant factors In he future of the city of Astoria, and every effort should be made to secure the shipment or grain from this port. Jamea Albert Cook. M years of age, was born at Kern-beck, Me. He came to the Paclilc coast as a man-of-war's-rian, with Commodore Stockton's expe dition and tartlrlpated In the rapture of Monterey, California, during the .M'.'xiian war. He and Sam Howard are said to have been the first white rettlers who lived In Tillamook county, Oregon. It I believed the only relative that he ha spoken about of late years I a slitter. Mrs. Elverson. of Mendicl no. California. . He took up a donation claim In 1S51. which includes the land west and south of the O'Hanna bridge to ,th Seaside school house In this county. Mr. Cook waa a quiet and indumrlous man as long as he was able to work, and for several years has re ceived a government pension for wounds received at the capture or Monterey. Ills funeral will be held on Sunday af ternoon at half past one from Pohl's undertaking parlors and will be under the ausolces of the Pioneer society and Cushlng Post, O. A. R. The San Francisco Chronicle has the following account of the recent col lision In the harbor of that city: The Columbia struck the Berkeley on the starboard side crushing but not cutting through the thick timbers which form the guard of the ferry boat, and Im mediately swung around and carried sway about thirty feet of the Berkeley's railing, the davits and the life boat on the after quarter. The damage to the terry boa( did not prevent her from continuing on her way to Oakland, nor from making severai trips. It Is be lieved that she will not be able to re lume her run for two weeks, and her repairs are expected to cost at ltost HOuO. The damage sustained by the Columbia was much greater. The col lision proves In this Instance that oak Is stronger than Iron, for the steam er's bow was rut as if with a huge knife by the blow against the oaken guard, and at least eight plates were torn loose. She will not be able to leave port until repairs are made. These will cost about 1000 according to the agents of the steamer. Respon sibility for the accident Is disclaimed by the captain of both the Columbia and the lierkly, and can be fixed only hy the government Inspectors of hulls and boilers, who win hold the usual Investigation. Captain Blaker. of the Berkeley, who has been In the ferry service between this city and Oakland for Ihe last twenty-five years, lays the blame for the accident upon the Colum bia, which he declares was too close inshore. When Captain Blaker blew one whistle In leaving the slip he ex pected the passing vessel to stop or theer off, but Instead the Columbia was under too great headway to stop. The Berkley's wheel was put hard to port when It appeared that a collision was about to take place, lessening the effect of the blow struck by the Colum bia. There were about 100 passengers on the Berkley and nearly as many on the Berkeley and nearly as many Jured. Mr. II. Silver, of Chicago, correspon dent of the Times-Herald in that city, and also of the Brooklyn Eagle, who has been spending the summer In Alas ka, returned last week to Seattle and was In Astoria yesterday. Mr. Silver is a physician and aurgeon, a graduate of the Illinois university and post gradu ate of John Hopkins University and took the trip as a vacation and made a quiet study of the condition of affairs In Alaska. He stated to an Astorlan reporter that In his opinion, and an opinion shared by nearly every one that had been there, as goon as the preselt chaotic state of affairs there has been reduced to something like order that general prosperity Is bound to follow. That there la gold there in plenty In unlimited quantities, but that the un settled uncrganixed condition of the law courts, and the endless litigation over contested claims is having a depressing effect at present. He says that the present suffering and the greater suffering that wilt necessarily follow this winter Is almost entirely due to the carelessness and Improvi dence of tha prospectors. That hun dreds and even thousands rushed to the gold fields with barely enough mooey to get them there, expecting to pick gold up In the streets or scrape It up from the sands. Many of them went there to dig for gold and refuse to do anything else, although plenty of work at good wages Is to be had at many of the larger camps. Mr. Silver spent the greater portion of his time at Nome City and was there during the fierce storms thai devastated that coast, and gave a very vivid descrlp tlow of the destruction done there. Mr. Silver wms accompanied on hi trip by hi son, who remained In Alaska. He brought wit Mm on the return irlp a beautiful Shepherd pup "nugget" which he will lake Kast with him. tie also brought with him on the return trip a curio, mineral and botanical speel mer.g and a large number of photo graprs of the gold country. Mr. Sil ver wn. very much struck with th lo cation of Astoria and said he had hard ly expected to find so flourishing a little city here. He ha returned to Hcattle and will spend perhaps a couple of weeks among the cities of the sound before he leaves for the East. COUNTT COURT. A Report of Business Transacted In County Commissioners' Court Yesterday, Philip Condlt, deputy road supervis or of district No. J, recommended to the court that repair be made to the bridge at James Irvlng's place and the O'Hanna bridge near Stanley's.
