Till! MORNING ,ASTOKI AN, ASTORIA. OREGON. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 95- y SAILS AND SAILORS Floating World in Astoria Waters Gets Busy. CARRADALE FROM HONOLULA TrancU Leggett and Her Tow Still In ColumbL ia from San Francii c Extraordinary Tide Yesterday Many Craft Croat the Bar. When the British steamship Oeet.no was aground on the north channel spit, opposite this city, some six dayt ago, experienced mariners were unanimous in the conclusion that sle must suffer more or less damage about her kelson and bilge plate ; but when she was hauled off and taken to the quarantine station, she showed no particular signs of injury below and a good many mar velled at her luck. It now develops they were right; and the fact that she did not leak, was owing to the fact that she had nothing in the exposed compart ments but water ballast, against which, of course, no ordinary leak would demon xtrate iUelf. Yesterday's Oregonian has the following anent her condition: "The surrey of the big British steam hip Oceano, which was lifted on the drydock Thursday, was completed yes terday morning by Capt. Lyddon Vey sey and Captain Andrew Hoben, who recommended that considerable repairs be made. "Three plate on the starboard bow were found to be dented in, and these will be taken off, repaired and replaced. The bilge keel amidships on the port side is bent out of line, and some of the rivets are gone. The stern bush ings will also require renewing, and some minor repairs to the ballast tanks are necessary. The work will probably be completed by Wednesday of next week, when the vessel will be floated. "Captain F. C. Hageman had a large force . of men" t work . painting the steamer's hull, yesterday afternoon. The 1905 STYLES IN 1905 IS THE - THE 1 1 Another large shipment of CLOAKS ID SUITS Just arrived.

'coast survey depart ment, is novr in Victoria, after her ser vere shaking up on the rocks in Wrangle Narrows lic-t week. Advice from the British Columbian capital, ay: "The United ; State v survey steamer Gedney arrived'' t(ay from Alaska, af ter completing her season's survey iu Alaskan waters. Captain Dickson said the steamer was not endangered when ashore at Wrangcl Narrows, and sus tained no injury by grounding. She ran on a mud bank' near the mouth of Wrsptgle Narrows and was promptly pulled off by the, steamer Excelsior. 'which was following her. The Oedney will proceed 4o the Sound tonight to be tied up for the winter." The only difference in the foregoing report and that of the steamer Excel sior, wired to .the Seattle press. Is that the officers of the latter steamer de clare the Oedney was on the "rocks' and the B. C. : Corespondent says she was on "mud." A radical variation, especially from a "salvage" point of view. But then Uncle Sam does not pay salvage very often nor with any haste, or liberality, when he doe pay it t The steamer Telegraph docked here about an hour after the naval-cracker-jack Paul Jones had started for Port land, yesterday, and one of the jolly of ficers of the little river flyer was heard to remark "it i a pity she got away so soon; we would have given her a run for her money going up this afternoon." Now the Telegraph is a dandy and erery body knows it, including her officers, buc Captain Scott, himself, with all hi pride and pluck, would never make a side-bet on a proposition like that. The Jones, with her every -day log of 31.fc knots would make tlie Telegraph or anything else in northwestern waters, take water, and back-water at that. But it a poor sailor that won't swear by his own ship, whatever the odds against her. The Jones went up river under pnotage of Captain Patterson. She came in over , the bar about II o'clock and came directly tip the harbor, exchanging salutes with the forts en route.

The steamer Alliance came down from Portland late yesterday afternoon, a good deal behind her sea going schedule, being held at Portland for freight. She took on a lot more here, beside several passenger, and got iuiok dispatch bence to Eureka and San Francisco. The llwaco liner Xahcotta, one of the most regular hartor packet doing busi ness here, will quit her Sunday runs be tween Astoria and Ilwaco, begining to day. This conforms to her usual winter schedule. Early yesterday tuonring the Gusian bark Fennia left up for Portland at the westerly end of the Harvest Queen's big hawser. The lumber laden schooner Alexander came down yesterday afternoon under tow of the Oklaihama, and came to anchor off the O. R. & X. piers. She is bound for San Francisco. The schooner John A. Campbell cros sed out early yesterday morning. The steamship Columbia is due at the 0. R. & X. pier at an early hour this morning from San Francisco. . The steam schooner Coquille City ar rived down from Westport yesterday morning and got to sea later in the day. Captain (Men had the misfortune to have a lot of himber slide on him while at Wetort and while badly bruised up, pluckily stood by hi work. Hi k'ft leg was hurt so badly he could hardly navigate with it. But he's outward bound for San Francisco all the iiie.. Yesterday afternon's flood tide arriv- eu in time with it last inch of 9.2 feet anu the ebb from.it made things lively along the waterfront. The water surged bar-ward with the rush of a mill- race increased about 100 fold. It was tkklinh landing at any of the docks, e pecially for the smaller craft, and it course along Young's Bay point was something tremendous. Another just like it i due this mid-afternoon. j The steamer Dispatch left out for Santa Crua yesterday afternoon with &0,000 feet of lumber. . ' Tlie steamer (Jrace Dollar from Van couver and Carroll' Point with 490,000 feet of lumber and 30,0(10 railroaJ tie went to sea yesterday afternoon, bound for San Frawi-eo. The schooner Repeat from Knappton, cleared for San Pedro yesterday after noon with 510,000 feet of lumber. Tlie ItritUh siiip Carradule, Captain (Jill, l!) day from Honolulu, in ballast, crossed in late vesterdar afternoon and will leave up for Portland today if she can get a tow. Dick Meijers, the well known sub marine diver did t-oine good work Fri day night and yesterday morning, clear ing the propeller of the Francis Leggett from tlie snarl of her wire towing haw ser, a mishap that befel her on Friday while trying to pull tlie big O.OOO.OOO foot sea raft of logs off the snnd spit in Young's Bay. He rejiort the pro peller in good shape, except for tlie tear ing off of a bolt-head, and the Leggett ready for bu-ines. The parties interest ed in the Leggett'a tow were busy yes terday trying to get tugs to pull the log raft off tlie sand but had not secured any service at 2 p. m. It is probable, however, assistance will lie had today ana if bar condition are favorable the San Fram-ix-o boat will get out with her unwieldy burden on this afternoon's tide. Tlie Columbia river bar schooner Jo seph Pulitzer will not lie on duty in the pilot service a quickly a was hop eu for by the association that own her. Tlie following advi from Port land indicate the difficulty at present confronting Crowe k Anderson, who have charge of her repairs: "Captain Crowe, of the firm of Crowe & Anderson, who ha the contract to furnish new mast for the pilot schoon er Joseph Pulitzer, is having no end of trouble finding a clear spar, because it dimensions are so small. Any amount of spar over 100 feet in length In per fect condition can be found in this part of the country, but Captain Crow say he searched for eight day in vain for a spar 80 feet in length and measuring 16 inche dressed at the butt end, and 13 inche at the top. The spar must also I entirely free from sap." Step by step another sea mystery is being unfolded. The raft reported drift ing at sea, off Carmanah Point last Sun day i spoken again, a wTtne the fol lowing dispatch received last night: Victoria, ScpU 30. The steamer Queen City, from the west coast of Vancouver island arrived this afternon and brought further particular regarding the wreck age . recently found near i armanan.
