Brings Suit On Astoria Suit has been filed by the attor neys of Mrs. Annie Anderson of Port land in the United States Court of that city" against the City of Astoria for $20,000 for personal damages she sustained in this city during the re gatta in 1907. Mrs. Anderson claims that while in Astoria she slipped on the apron on the railroad track, in juring her hip that she says will dis able her for life.
