Revenue Cutter Perry Departs a
Sundown to Be Prepared for
Northern Cruise".
GIVEN ROUSING FAREWELL
Ulcctro Takes Party of Friends
or Officers as Far as llnr
Seven Vessels Added to
Overdue List.
The revenue cutter Commodore Perry
departed at sundown last night for
the sound. News of the fact that the
cutter Was to sail created a furor
among the many friends ot the officers
of the Perry, and during the day they
were kept busy saying good-bye to
faetr acquaintances here. The cutter
beth, La Rochefoucaul, Wynford and
Neck, all sailing vessels. '
Dredge Doing Good Work.
The port of rorttand dredge Colum
blft la doing an excellent piece of work
In making the ship channel In the lower
part of the harbor., The work la slow,
on account of the nature of the ma
term!, but the channel, when owe
dredged, will be permanent. In Ave
days she has excavated 35.000 cubic
yards of material , It consists of blue
clay and gravel with a liberal sprinkling
of sticks and logs. The clay and sand
Is deposited 500 or (00 feet buck from
the bank, where there la no danger of
Its getting Into the river again.
The new channel, which will be SO
feet deep and 300 feet wide, will extend
from the lower beacon to a point above
the present Alblna ferry.
Marine Notes.
The lighthouse tender Columbine has
returned from Portland, where she was
overhauled.
The Gerald C. arrived yesterday from
Taqutna bay. Bhe brought 411 cases
of cans and 10 tons of scrap Iron.
The steamer Alliance arrived last
avantiiff frnm Ran Franrlaeo. with her
took a berth at Elmore's dock In the! , m . fr.lght ,,,.
forenoon and there coaled for the trip
around to the sound, and by 6 o'clock
all was In readiness for the sailing of
the vessel. ... . .
Friends of Captain Dunwoody and
the other officers determined to ac
company the cutter as far as the mouth
of the river, and Dr. Earle was asked
to take down the party on the Electro.
The doctor readily compiled with the
request, and when the Electro pulled
away from, her dock shortly after S she
was crowded with ladles and gentle
men. Together the two government
vessels steamed down the harbor, and
for 15 miles farewells were cried back
and forth. The trip exemplified that
parting is Indeed sweet sorrow, for the
evening was a lovely one and the jaunt
down the bay proved a great pleasure,
When the two boats reached the
mouth of the river the final farewell
took place, the Electro's party wishing
the Perry's officers a pleasant Journey
to the north and expressing the wish
that all may soon return again to As
toria.
As to whether or not the Perry will
winter here next season there seems
to be a wide difference of opinion. It
Is learned on high authority that a
larger vessel will be sent here next
winter, as the Perry Is considered too
small to be of assistance to shipping
during the stormy season of the year.
However, the opinion prevails among
many that Captain and Mrs. Dunwoody
will be back next year, and from this
It Is taken the captain will be trans
ferred to the larger vessel. As was
started yesterday, the Perry will go on
the drydock at Seattle and after being
overhauled will, be fitted out for the
cruise in Alaskan waters.
The barkentlne John Smith depart
ed yesterday for San Francisco. She
takes 360,000 feet ot lumber and 1.400,
000 lath.
The barkentlne Northwest arrived
yesterday from San Francisco, after
passage of tl days. She was delayed
by head winds. The Northwest reg
isters 489 tons and Is In command of
Captain A. C. Smith. .
The bar dredge Chinook yesterday
made another fine showing at the
mouth ot the river, taking away from
the ridge on the bar during the day
4500 yards ot sand. Her officers are
highly enthusiastic with the results
which are being accomplished, and are
convinced that the Chinook will not
be long In demonstrating her ability to
provide the required depth.

Seven Vessels Added to the Roll at
San Francisco.
A dispatch from San Francisco says
There was a big spurt In the overdue
market today. Seven vessels were ad
ded to the list posted at the Merchants'
exchange, a larger number than has
been placed on the board In a single
day for years. The wholesale posting
was the result of a telegram received
from London reporting that the Brit
Ish steamer Florida, at New York from
Calcutta, had passed through miles of
wreckage on May 5, 100 miles east of
Nantucket lightship, consisting moetly
of case oil. In the wreckage were
raft and small boat upside down. The
day before she met the wreckage the
Florida experienced a very heavy gale,
All the new overdue carry cargoes
of case oil, and though none of them is
overdue In point of time, the report
made by the Florida gives rise to fears
In the case of every one of the oil
carriers. Nothing has been heard from
any of the vessels since they left the
Atlantic coast. All are posted at the
low rate of 6 per cent and all are bound
from New York or Philadelphia for
points in the far east.
The list Includes the Juteopolls, Wil
ly RIckmers, Largo Law, Queen Eliza

Senator Gorman Dictates Policy of Con
vention Through Entire Session.
Baltimore. May 28. The democratic
state convention of Maryland met In
this city today, adopted a plutform and
elected delegates to the St. Louis con
vention. Senator Gorman was a dele
gate from Howard county and the plat
form adopted by the convention admit
tedly embodies -his opinion as to what
the national platform should be. It
was confined to national Issues and
practically Indorsed the line of action
followed by the democratic committee
during the lute session of congress.
It calls for a moderate tariff revis
ion. Independence , for the Filipinos,
economy In expenditures and full In
vestlgatlon of aU alleged crookedness
In the postofflce and other govern
ment departments, and severely crltl
clsed the present administration.
It condemns the methods under which
the Panama canal territory was ac
quired and alleges the administration
disregarded the law and treaty obllga
tlons toward a sister republic.
While the delegates to St. Louis were
not Instructed except to vote as a unit
It Is admitted that this course was fol
lowed by the request of Senator Gor
man, the convention being plainly
the humor to Instruct for him.
