CHANNEL TO' . BE DEEPENED Liberal Offers Made Chamber of 0mmebEn$ineers tag Department WILL BENEFIT BUOY DEPOT Dredjrfuj to Ha Duue ia Eastern Harbor Causes Satiafao tlou ia Local Com mercial Circle. . Judge Bowlbywj:haJfniaa of lh Chamber of Commerce commute oa commerce and,' navigation, stated yet terday Major Lengfltt had made very liberal otter to the Attorta chwrr with reference to deepening the channel In the eastern' portion of the Aarbor. The committee recently took up the matter with the engineer department, and Major Langfltt promised to have i survey and sounding made in the east ern harbor a toon as weather condi tions would permit. i "These sounding will show the ae- . - tual condtlon of the channels there," .... k .... said Judge Bowlby yesterday, "and i give us an accurate Idea of what we may expect to contend with. There are two channels making across the Columbia In the direction of Tongue Point, although they -f terminate some distance below the point. One Is the Taylor channel and the other the new channel which has only lately opened again. The chamber has always be lieved this last-named channel should. be kept open. It strikes the Astoria- shore some distance above the Taylor channel and If deepened would not in terfere with the depth In the eastern part of the harbor. The government has Interests at stake there, for Its buoy, depot Is .located at the extreme eastern end of the harbor. When th soundings are made the engineers will be enabled to tell just what will be re quired to deepen the harbor above, and Just what means will best subserve the Interests of all concerned. "The statement of Major LangBtt that he will cause dredging operations to be carried on in the east end harbor is gratifying. The re-location of the harbor lines there was not satisfac tory, affording , practically no relief, but dredging will give the, desired depth without further extension of the lines. We must aim to keep deep water from the Tongue to the sea, and I am satisfied Major. Langfltt will as sist us in this matter,? , -j Judge Bowlby said be had heard nothing further of the bill creating a separate district for, Astoria, The bill passed the senate, but after reaching the house was tost. It is likely the measure is waiting Its turn, and that In due course of time It will be taken up and passed ' This as a matter of the utmost importance to local shipping interests, the needs of which demand that Astoria be cut off from other Im provement districts and the work of improving the harbor be conducted sep arately. TUG'S HAWSER PARTED. Accident Occur While Tatoosh Is Tew ing Haydn Brown to 8ea. Of four vessels that tried to get to sea yesterday but one was successful. The weather was very had and the bar rough. About daylight rain began fal ling and as the morning wore along the wind Increased in velocity until there was a nasty swell on at ' the mouth of the river. The schooner W. F.'Jewett was towed to sea 'during the morning. With a cargo of lumber for San Francisco. A short time later the tug Tatoosh passed a hawser to the American bark Haydn Brown and started for sea with her, but the hawser parted. For a time it seemed the bark might drift onto the sands in the lower harbor, but the Tatoosh managed to keep her off. -. Both the steamer Elmore and the steamer Harrison tried to cross out during the morning, but when they got as far as the bar they returned to the harbor, as the outlook was not promising. Inspecting Sound Sttamtrt. - C. E. Fowler, one of the members of the Chamber of Cammerce committee appointed to Investigate the manner in' which the United States marine inspec tors are- compelling sound steamers to carry life-saving equipment, has been ' reported to the customs authorities, for punishment for violation of the marine regulations.
