STEAMER ROMA
OIL FLEET
IN
A FINE VESSEL THAT IS NOW
MAKING HER FIRST TRIAL
TRIP IN COLUMBIA RIVER
WATERS. ,
The oil tank steamer Roma which
has been hourly expected to enter the
river for the past two days had not
been sighted at dark last evening,
. though it was thought probable she
would come in during the night. The
Roma is of the fleet of the Union Oil
Company and this'is her first trip to
the Columbia. She is a fine vessel
and was formerly in the service of the
Union Company in Atlantic waters.
Recently she was brought around and
put in commission in the Pacific, thus
making a total of nine vessels now
in the Union Company's fleet, from
now on she will make tegular trips
n TWM.ind. alternatine with the
AnrvlL Lansing and Whittier. The
Roma has been out two months on
this trip around. Captain Tom Crang
is in Astoria in readiness to take her
up the river.
The Edmond Rostand, Captain
Drillet, came down from Portland
yesterday in tow of the Harvest
Queen. The French bark cleared from
Portland for Queenstown or Fal
mouth for' orders with a cargo of
110,095 bushels of wheat valued at
$99,084. The going out of the Rostand
marks the opening of the grain sea
son. The French bark. Vendee and
the Crown of India and Largiemore
are still at Portland under charter
for June loading of old-cop grain. It
is said exports of grain to foreign
ports for June will be heavy, consid
ering the fact that it is the last month
in the cereal year. The closing month
of last season was barren, as far as
foreign exports are concerned. This
month wil . see at least four full
cargoes set afloat at Portland which
will, total close to 500,000 bushels of
wheat.
1,1 M. A. Bernays; son of Chaplain
Eernays, of the Portland Seamen's
Institute, who sailed June 3 in an 18
fnnt sailboat from Vancouver, B. C,
fr,r Portland, arrived at Neah Bay
Thursday. A telegram from him, re
ceived by his father, stated that bad
weather had marked the entire voy
age. He will set sail at once, but does
.vnert to reach Astoria before
Monday.
At a late hour last night the United
States battleship Pennsylvania was
reported to be in latitude 45.03 north
longitude 124.1 west, bound north.
The schooner James A. Campbell
entered yesterday from Port Town
send and went to the Hume mill for
a cargo of lumber for San Francisco.
The gasoline schooner Evie went
out yesterday on a deep-sea fishing
cruise off the Oregon coast. She is
expected in this morning.
The Sue H. Elmore arrived in at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon from Til
lamook Bay with freight and passengers.
The steam schooner Northland j
went out yesterday morning with
lumber for San Francisco.
The Geo. VV. Elder left out yester
day morning on her regular trip to
Eureka and San Francisco.
Steamer Shna came down and went
out at 2:30 yesterday afternoon with
lumber for San Francisco.
The Roma arrived in last night
about 10:30 and left going up" this
morning at 3 a. m.
WELL DEFINED RUMOR 'OF
NEGOTIATIONS FOR ' THE
PURCHASE OF ESTABLISHED
LUMBERING PLANT IN THIS
CITY-WILL BE WELCOMED.
From the well-founded rumors
afloat in and about this city, Astoria
is to regain the definite and always
valuable interest of. A. B. Hammond.
This time in the lumbering field.
It is a well known facf that Ham
mond people have held options on
most of the big milling plants in this
city and near to it.- for sometime
past, and that the list included the
famous clocks and mills of the
Tonnue Point Lumbering Company;
.that these equities have been permit
ted to lapse from time to time, includ
ing the fine Hume properties before
mentioned.
The presence in this city on
Thursday and yesterday, of the exe
cutive staff of the Hammond milling
concerns in Oregon, John A. Shaw,
of the Curtis Lumber Company, with
headquarters at Mill City, is signifi
cant, and especially as Mr. Shaw was
at the Tongue Point plant the most
of his time in Astoria.
Astoria will gladly welcome the
return of Mr. Hammond's self and
neoole to this section because it
will mean much for the city and its
entire territory, for of all the men
who have ever taken definite interest
in this end of the Columbia alley, he
has done the most and has done it
well pnd lastingly.

youth named Lloyd Foote. Both are

gestion was made, however, mat
when Mr. Johanscn arrived home he
should come in to Astoria and give
himself up, so that the expense of a
second trip from the sheriffs oltice
might be avoided. Mr. Johansen
cheerfully ifcted upon the suggestion
and came to town yesterday and pre-
nded himself at the sheriffs office,
where he was "arrested" and then
taken before Justice Goodman and
arraigned. He pleaded not guilty.
Verv little is known here of the
merits of the case here, though it is

To the Honorable George Kaboth,
and about one hundred other tax
payers of School District No. 1, As
toria, Oregon:
.. Gentlemen In reply to the peti
tion signed by you, requesting the
privilege of using my name as a can
didate for the office of Director at
the anoroaching school election, I de-
eir in sav: I fully appreciate the
compliment to me contained in your
request, and sincerely thank you tor
the same.
I fullv appreciate the responsibili
ties and the purely altruistic amies
devolving upon the incumbent of the
office of director on a school board,
and that the prosperity and reputa
tion of a community are largely
iudred bv the degree of efficiency in
its nubile school system. I earnest
ly believe that one of the most im
portant things that could contribute
toward the fame of our city, is, tnat
it should have a public school system
to no other community of like popu
lation. We should have a corps of
teachers, efficient and zealous; we
slim,ld have adequate, apparatus for
the application of all modern methods
of instruction, and we should baye
sanitary and substantial buildings in
which that instruction can be import
ed. With these things, our school
children can be moulded into useful
and law-abiding citizens. To bring
about and maintain this condition, is
a duty incumbent upon the board oj
directors, and to that end they should
never relax their energies. Their re
ward is in the consciousness of duty
well performed, and in the steadily
increasing moral tone of the com
munity in which they .live.
Realizing these things, and with a
full consciousness of the responsibil-
ity assumed, I will say to you, that
