The steamer Northland arrived in yesterday morning from San Fran cisco and berthed at the Callender dock, where she laid for an hour or more discharging cargo. When she left out, her captain noticed four men rushing down the dock and yelling like they were possessed, and, recog nizing them as some of his passen gers, checked his ship's headway and rang her back alongside. The four men had plainly been drinking and all made a rush for the nest of dol phines at the west end of the pier and bunched themselves on the swaying piles, avoiding a repetition of a like, or a worse, accident to that which befell John Stademan at the Rose City on the O. R. & N. pier Monday after noon. But, as the stern of the North land swung inboard, a number of the crew reached out- and grabbed the several half-drunken men and hauled them over the rail to safety by a mir acle of sheer strength and timeliness. Everybody who witnessed the caper was prepared for any miserable out come of the situation and the captain was openly censured for coming back at all for the drunken delinquents. The bay was full of small water craft, launches, tenders and fishing boats, all of yesterday' expediting the get-away of the various seining out fits to the many seining grounds be tween the Tongue and the Capes. The Tallant-Grant "Noah's Ark" was tow ed alongside Fisher's dock where 12 head of horses were taken on board and she was taken and headed up for Taylor's sands near Tongue Point. There was a general scattermentin this industry and by this morning all will be ready to launch the season's work. There are 18 piece of 11 1-irtch well casing, each 20 feet long, being loaded on one of the Callender barges this morning for the oil fields at Deep River. R. A. Wade, the secretary of the operating company there went to Los Angeles for the material which could not be purchased in the Colum bia valley, and brought it up on the Roanoke. Mrs. Wade made the voy age with him. The company is now down on their first boring just 270 feet, and will use the new casing on all subsequent work. The exact official measurements of the new cannery tender "Occident," built by R. C. Basil, for the Columbia River Packers' Association, as filed at the custom house are: Gross tons, 8; net. 6: leneth. 35.7 feet; beam, 9.9 feet; depth, 3 feet; she carries a 20 horsepower Troyer-Fox engine, ami her official number is 205,455. The steamer Sue H. Elmore was -beached at the west end of the Kin nev cannery yesterday morning and her propeller shaft relieved of a lot of clogging stuff that was imbedded there. She will return to her dock this morning and load out at once for Tillamook. The fine Standard Oil S. S. Col. E. 1. Drake entered port yesterday at noon and spent the balance of the day at the company's dock pumping 10,000 barrels of oil into the plant s tanks. She left up at 7 o'clock last evening under pilotage of Capt. Harry Emkins. The tine and trim British steamship Ascot, lumber laden for Melbourne, Australia, came down the river yes terday morning and went out over the Columbia bar at lp.m. The steamer Charles R. Spencer came down, about an hour late, yes terday, with 42 passengers for As toria and a few tons of freight. She went up 35 minutes later with 36 people from here. The steamer Horner arrived in from San Francisco, last evening and went on to Portland after a brief stay here. , The steamer Shoshone came in from the California coast yesterday morning and after a short call at the Callender, went on up the river.

After a series of conferences with steamship officials and cable despatches between Thomas MacMichen and Frank Lahn in Paris Mr. MacMichen said last night that word had been sent to Farham requestng him to ship his big airship with all possible haste to Ant werp for Boston on Thursday. Mr. er Samland, which will sail from Ant werp fr oBoston on Thursday. Mr, Lahm has been conducting the nego tiations on behalf of Farham for the St. Louis syndicate which had prac tically completed all arrangements to bring the successful aeronaut to this country when, at the eleventh hour, it was discovered that on account of its geat size the passenger steamers re fused to carry the machine. It had been supposed by members of the Aero Club here, that the wings of the machine could be folded up and toved away in a moderate compass. As the cases containing the frame with the wings are about 45 feet long they are too big for the hold and too long for the deck. On advice of the manager of the International Mer cantile Marine Co., a cable despatch was sent to Mr. Lahm, advising him to have Farman's airship sent by the Samland as facilities would be made, it stated, to have the boat carry the enormous machine, l He samianu is lue in Boston July. 27 and the 'first lav's flight at Brighton Beach was to have been made on July 29. DARING HOLD-UP INJURED MAN IS 111-; PROVING JOHN N. STADEMAN, VICTIM OF THE ROSE CITY ACCI DENT LAST MONDAY WILL PROBABLY RECOVER. John N. Statcman, who was ser iously injured Monday afternoon in an attempt to get aboard the Rose City as she was leaving her dock fot Portland, is still in a very serious con dition at the hospital. Although he is still greatly suffering, Dr. Fulton, the attending physician, has hopes for his recovery. The patient, who was totally blind Monday, caused by blood conjesting and swelling his face until his eyes were closed, was consider ably improved in this respect and could see quite well yesterday. When seen yesterday he was able to speak freely, and complaint of the pains in the small of his back, which are caus ing him much more suffering than the other injuries he .sustained. His friends at Portland who were tele graphed for at the time of the acci dent arrived last night, and are doing all in their power to relieve the man. But the excellent treatment he is get ting at he hands of a private nurse, and the good sisters, is impossible to be improved on. His complete recov er, if no unforseen complications set in, will require at least several months and after his recovery it is doubtful if he will again be able to engage in active work, as his back will never again be as strong as it was, it is said. PERSONAL MENTION H . C. Oliver, traveling freight agent for the O. R. & X. Company, was a business visitor in the city yesterday. William Harder, dean of the rail way fraternity in the Northwest, and general agent for the Great Northern Railway, spent the day in this city yestcrdav, looking up his company's interests and greeting score of old friends.

Hildebrand at the Corner of Fell and Laguna Streets shortly after one o'clock this morning and placing masks on their faces proceeded to hold up the place which contained Hildebrand and his bartender, and three visitors. The highway men forced all five to inarch to the rear and line up,, when they went through their pockets, securing over ?1UU They beat two of the men on the head with their revolvers when they re fused to continue to hold up their hands. They secured the contents of the till and left. One of the men in the saloon followed on to the street and was fired at but escaped being hit. The police have made no arrests This is the second time Hildebrand's saloon has been held up lately. Subcribe to the Morning Astorian, 60 cents per month, delivered by carrier. Survey Begins The actual work of surveying for the new electric line to Seaside was commenced yesterday. Several short lines, have been run over the heights during the past week or two for the purpose, mainly, of ascertaining the altitudes, but the line began yesterday marks the commencement of the real work of laying the electric line to the coast. The surveyors ran south on Eleventh street and up the Heights to Irving. It is understood that the engincrs in charge of the en terprise do not look upon the aru- tudes with any misgivings, as the way the hill figures out now no greater grade than 12 per cent is likely to be met with, which is a grade that the modem electric car can overcome readily enough. In Portland the cars up to Council Crest run tip grades nearly, if not quite, twice as steep as that. Of course every extra degree and fraction thereof means increased electrical energy and a consequent increase in cost, and the steeper the grade the greater is the danger of certain kinds of accidents.
