CITY OF PANAMA; PUT ON RUN
THE MOKNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON.
An energetic movement is pa foot by
the Astoria Chamber of Commerce to
secure tlie new naval station to b sit
uated on the Pacific Gwst for the mouth
of the Columbia. Secretary Whyte and
other members of that body believe that
it will be located bene, and they are
exerting every effort to hav this poiut
chosen by Admirals Capp and Cowles,
who are on their wy west to choose
the best point for the station
Secretary Whyte, of the Chamber of
Commerce, stated last night that let
ters had been sent to Senators Fulton
and Bourne, the Congressmen from this
state Portland Chamber cm' Commerce,
Board of Trade, Commercial Club. nd
other bodies- to co-operate with the As
toria organization to present the mat
ter to the War Department. Letters
were also sent to Washington, one of
them going to the Secretary of War,
regarding the selection of the naval sta
tion for the Columbia harbor.
The recent war talk in regard to
Japan has brought home to the govern
ment the fact that the Pacific Coast is
sadly deficient in regard to naval sta
tions. The result is that the selection
of a site for a station will be made
immediately in order that its completion
may be accomplished as early as pos
sible. Admiral Cowles, one of the two army
men who will make the selection, is a
brother-in-law of President Roosevelt,
and there is no doubt that matters will
be rushed through as soon as possible.
The men will visit the lower part of
California, San Francisco and the mouth
of the Columbia within the next few
weeks.
It js the object of the Chamber of
Commerce to bring all possible pressure
to bear upon the army men to have this
point selected for the naval station. As
the Columbia harbor is the only point
which could be selected between Puget
Sound and San Francisco, and there are
no harbors of importance below the lat
ter point, everything points toward this
city as being the point for the naval
station.
Puget Sound already has a naval sta
tion at Bremerton, and San Francisco
is also fairly well equipped in this re
gard. The decision therefore practically
lie between a southern California port
and the Columbia River. Figuring that
the disatnee from Astoria to San Fran
cisco, or to Bremerton, is greater than
from San Francisco to lower California,
it appears that 'everything favors the
Columbia river for the naval station,
especially in view of the harbor and
resourecs at this point.

Various Items Concerning the Vessels
Which Are Hourly Moving About In
Astoria Harbor, Bringing Wealth and
.Fame to the City.
At the O. . 4 X. olllce yesterday
eventing Agent Roberts announced that
the company would have a new steamer
on the San Francis-Portland run and
that &!ie would be iu Astoria about
August 0. The new stmuier is the City
of Panama and she is to sail north from
the Bay City on August 4. The date of
her return filing tfrom Portland is
August 10. She will run iu the same
connection with the Costa Hlca and till
the place in passenger and freight
tralUc left vaccnt by the sinking of
the Columbia. As far as could be learn
ed yesterday the City of Panama has
never been in the port before.
It will be recalled that the City d.'
Panama was the ship that was sup
posed to be lost in a storm last win
ter. Dr. Henry Waldo Co of Portlaud
and family were aboard ou a trip to
Panama and for a time their friend and
family were much concerned and they
were believed to have been Jost with
the steamer. The City of Panama later
turned up but sadly battered iirom the
effect of the storm.
The steamer Roanoke left out yester
day morning at 8 o'clock for 3.m Fran
cisco and way points.
The steamer Breakwater arrived in
yesterday with freight and passenger
for Coos Bay to Portlaud.
Ihe steamship Melville Dolbr came
into the harbor yesterday with a partial
lumber cargo. She will complete her
cargo at Portland and clear for Guay
n Mexico.
The schooner Expansiun loaded with
lumber from the Tongue Point Lumber
Company l:t out for San Francisco
yesterday. "
The steam schooner Gazelle, a frail
craft, left out yesterday for Yaiiiiu
! Bay where she will carry passengers for
the summer. She will follow the Rob
arts down for protection. By many men
on the water runt the opinion is ex
j pressed that Captain Sentt of the Ga
I zelle is taking big chance with his
flifrlu futaf Tim linuati find liilftt
douse has teen braced and .-trengthened
against the seas but with the additional
braces it is thought that should the sea
become rough the boat would have small
chance of finishing the trip.
The oil steamer Atlas with barge 91
in tow arrived in and proceeded up the
river to Portland to discharge cargo,
The Redondo is expected dow n Sunday
with the Chinese junk, Whang Ho, in
tow.
Captain Gensebow, pilot on the Lur
line, tendered his resignation yesterday
and Captain McCully was appointed to
take his place. ,
The Lurline arrived down hist night
at 9:30 with a load of freight which
took all the resemblance of a steamboat
from the trim looking vessel. On her
(fore-deck the crates for tin cases were
piled almost to a level of the pilot
house. The lower deck held 25 tons of
feed besides a lot of other merchandise.
She made her first stop at the Ross-
Higgins' dock and after discharging
there dropped down to her regular slip.
Captain Larkins reports that it rained
during the morning and that the smoke
has cleared away.
The Oklahoma brought down a large
mill boiler yesterday morning and left
it on the O. R. & N. dock. It is con
signed to the shipper and is supposed
tr. be sent to some logging concern on
the Washington side.
The schooner Transit left out yester
day for San Francisco with (150,000 feet
of lumber on deck and in the hold.
i W. F, McGregor o' the Astoria Box

stalled will be given a trial this morn
ing with steam in the cylinders. The

U-er Fish Warden Van Ini-eii I
receiving wonl every day from the men
iu the state hatchery department that
the twelve different stations in the state
are getting ready to handle the eggs
which will be swamped from the salmon
this season. At no point iu the state
have auy eggs been taken or received
into the hatcheries. At the Clackamas
mid Salmon river stations the work will
beam earliest iu the season. The eggs
taken so far at these place have been
taken solely for the purpose of deter-
mining their condition. The salmou at
the Clackamas station near Candero
are not yet ripe.
From Bill Smith, who is In charge of
the Clackamas station, who reported to
the Fish Warden yesterday, comes the
information that there are plenty of fish
in the stream there but that tney are
not yet ripe. He states that there will
be to dilllculty In taking the salmon
as the sein has been tried and tfound to
work perfectly. At the C'lackmas station
there is u arrangement of two sets 01
racks and a place to hold the salmon
in until thev mature. This station is
only a temporary one, the permanent
station being located 30 mile further
up the river but as the Portland General
Electric Company has a 00-foot dam at
this point no fish could go above it this
year. The company, however, is blasting
a tlshway over the dam and Nutih iu
forms Mr. Van Dusen that the work is
being done at the upper end ' the fl-h
ladder so that the blasting will not In
teifeie with the work of the slate in
taking eggs. Blasting in or near
the water has proved in the pat to lie
the Ut way to dSriva Hals entirely out
of a stream.
The 12 Oregon hatcheries are capable
if handling 50 million egg and Mr. Van
l)uen thinks that should everything be
f.ivcr.ibli that this amount will be
taken this season.
Should the greater tier cent of this
take be hatched and liberated to the
streams there should be no dilllculty
with a slack salmon season a this one
i reported to !. But among butchery
nu n this is not considered to lie a dull
fishing season; it is generally Wlicved
to 1 a late -eason. Report coming
from Alaska lieur this out. The run (
allium tin-re has been kept down by
low temperature and at the lime the
list reports were m-nt in the run was in
creasing. The work in the olllce of the Fi-li
Warden is ju-t beginning to commence
and after a few weeks there will lie all
that the force eare to do. The corres
pondence from men in charge of stations
