TWO HEN LOOKING
FOR 1 ROUBLE
LAUNCH ZEPHYR ON
ILWACO RUN
CAPTAIN WATERS BELIEVES
THERE WILL BE AMPLE
FREIGHT AND PASSENGER
BUSINESS.
The Zephyr, a little steam launch,
has been placed in the passenger and
freight service between Ilwaco and
Astoria, and already has made sev
eral daily runs. Captain Waters of
Ilwaco is in command of the
Zephyr, and he believes that an ex
cellent business awaits his venture,
for since the Nahcotta was taken off
from the Ilwaco run there has been
a constant need of daily communica
tion between the two places.
Captain Waters says he will soon
have a larger vessel for the business,
one . that will have ample seating
of sufficient dimensions to take care
of and protect the freight in bad
weather.
The boat for Ilwaco will leave As
toria every afternoon. .
From 5 several letters that have
reached Astoria it is evident that the
Roanoke had a pre'tty rough voyage
on her wav south on the last trip.
The letters complained mostly of the
sea-sickness that prevailed among
the feminine passengers, and one of
them also stated that one of the
ship's boats was stove in, which fact
indicates pretty bad weather.

The bar tug Astoria came into the
harbor yesterday from Gray's Har
bor, and this morning will take out
the new hull that has been built by
the Leathers' Company for parties
up the coast. The hull wil be taken
to Gray's Harbor where the engines
will be installed. The Astoria js
known to almost every man who fol
lows the sea in these parts and many
looked her over with much interest
yesterday. The Astoria was built in
1884 at North Bend, Ore.
There was a surprising diversity in
the bid's offered yesterday for the job
of raising the Minnie E. Kelton, the
steam schooner which lies submerged
in the lower harbor. The lowest bid
was just one-third the amount of the
largest bid. The tenders were opened
in the office of-P. L. Cherry yester
day afternoon, and were as follows:
Captain James McKenna, master of
the vessel, $5000; Leander Lebeck,
$8475; Willamette & Columbia River
Ship Lining Company, $15,000; and
H. H. Yankwich, of Portland, $12,
850. The bids are to be sent to the
underwriters in San Francisco, prob
ably by wire, and it is probable that
tU arrentanre of One Of the D1QS
will soon be announced.
The West Coast Lumberman says:
"The C. E. Burrows Lumber Com-
oanv. Aberdeen, will be paid pro
rata bv the owners of the steamer
Minnie V.. Kelton for the lumber
thev lost when that steamer went
' down off Willapa Harbor some time
ago."
The British steamer AUanton ar
rived in over the bar last evening
--and was held up by Dr. Holt, the
quarantine officer, because she could
not show a clean bill of health from
San Francisco, her last port of call.
Apparently because of the oversight
A little boy who was eager to see
the torpedo boats yesterday after
noon tumbled off into the water as
he was passing over the plank from
the Goldsborough to the Rowan. He
was fished out, however, none the
worse for the episode other than the
wetting. Visitors are welcome on the
little war vessels from 1 o 5 o'clock
in the afternoon; in the morning
hours the vessels are closed to visi
tors as the men are then engaged in
cleaning up and performing other
duties on board.
The Fox and Davis, the two little
torpedo boats stationed at Portland
since the Rose Festival, are now not
expected down until Friday or per
haps Saturday, so that the two in the
harbor will be here long enough for
all to see that wish to.
The men from the Rowen and
Goldsboro are getting all the shore
leave that is possible, and are appar
ently enjoying themselves in fine
shape. They are having a good time,
but they are not evincing any desire
to paint the town red and really have
made an excellent impression around
the city streets.
The Chinese steward from the
Rowan is the only man who has
managed to get into any trouble, and
the trouble that fell to him was not
of his seeking. He hastened on shore
to ereet some long lost cousins and
old time friends among the Astoria
Celestials and all was going well
with him until an eagle-eyed emigra
tion officer saw the strange China
man and took him in tow instantly.
The steward was marvelously indig
nant; that he, a steward from one of
the , United States naval vessels,
should be taken up as a suspect. The
nffirprs of the toroedo boats inter
vened and soon had the steward at
liberty again.
of her agent there she left the Cali
fornia oort without fumigation, and
it will be necessary to fumigate her
here. This will delay the Allanton in
Astoria until perhaps rioon today
making her lose about one full day.
The Allanton evidently made a slow
passage up from San Francisco, the
trio taking her - 93 hours. She is
under charter by the Pacific Export
T.ntmher Comoanv and will load
lumber at Portland for the Orient.

The steamer George W. Elder ar

regular trip to Portland.

The steamer Yosemite went down

The transport Sherman : left out

Armed with magazine rifles and
heavy revolvers strapped around
their waists, two men are watching
their nets out fronwSand Island, and
it is evident they are both looking
for trouble and will not run away
from it if it comes. One of the men
is J. N. Stensland, a well known fish
erman whose residence is at Chinook, j
and his companion is the boatpuller.
The two men have set eight nets in
front of the seining ground on Sand
Island recently leased by the United
States government to the Columbia
River Packing Association, and are
apparently resolved to back up what
they evidently consider their rights
i'n h nintrpr even if it involves
bloodshed. The facts in the conten
tion ay be briefly stated.
It was the purpose of the Columbia
River Packers' Association to run
their seines out from the leased
grounds. But the two fishermen
have set their eight nets directly in
the way, so that at long as their nets
remain where they now are, it will
be impossible for the association to
use their seines in the waters in
front of their leased seining grounds.
The fishermen are said to admit that
company may have a perfect right
to the land on the Island which they
have leased from the Federal govern
ment, but the fishermen assert that
the waters in front of ',. the leased
ground are just as free to them now
as ever. That is, they deny that the
leasing of the land on the island car
ries with it any exclusive right to the
adjacent waters; and further more,
that even if the Federal government
had intended that the lease should
carry with it the right to the adja
cent waters, that such a lease would
be null and void.
The fishermen are apparently tak
ing the ground that the waters of the
river are entirely free, and that the
United States government or no one
else may claim any exclusive right
to them. When Ole J. Settem, the
water bailiff, ran near the two men
yesterday he observed their make-up
with no little astonishment. For a
moment he didn't know whether they
were pirates or not. One of the
men hailed the water Damn in
stentorian tones, at the same time,
balancing his rifle in his hands. Mr.
Settem kept on going, however, in
spite of the guns and the war-like
appearance of the men. They were
attired something after the manner
of the leading characters in The
Sheriff,", the Wild West play now on
the boards of the Hagar theatre, and
with wide hats- and the array of
shooting irons looked formidable
enough to scare even the tars off a
torpedo boat destroyer. The water
bailiff wanted to know what was up.
The fishermen told him.
Mr. Settem pondered for a while
and then came away; he didn't see
that he could do anything, for though
armed, the men did not carry con
cealed weapons as far as he could
observe. ,"
Just what the packers' association
can do in the matter appears to be
somewhat' problematical, though
their attorneys may know just what
move to make. But it is quite evi
dent that Stensland and his ' com
panion are prepared to make a bitter
fight, and it was surmised by some
last night that there is a probability
that they are being "backed up by
some one in the pending contention.
