ESTERDAY
BAD ACCIDENT AVERTED ON
CALLENDER DOCK -DRAKE
IN FROM CALIFORNIA -ASCOT
SAILS FOR AUSTRALIA
BAY AND RIVER ITEMS.
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.

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.

BRING AIR .SHIP OVER.
Was Too Big to Load on Ordinary
Steamboat.
'XVVJ YORK. Tulv 14. 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.

San Francisco Saloon Is Robbed By
Two Men.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 14.-Two
well dressed men entered the saloon
of F. H. 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.

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.

We have had the experience neces

intention of opening an establishment
at 112 Eleventh street has caused our
former employers to become aggriev

for that company will bring. us the
trade that came to them through us,
and for that reason they are angry.
