OCEAN, BAR,
BAY,
Captain George Bolton of San
Francisco, has accepted a position as
master of the American ship Berhn,
belonging to the Alaska-Portland
Packers' Association. That vessel has
been lying at Gobel since last Fall,
when she returned from the Nusha
gak River, Alaska, with a cargo of
salmon. Captain Fry, who had com
mand of her, has taken charge of the
St Nicholas, another salmon ship
tied np here. Bolton has been going
to the fishing grounds on the Nusha
gak River for the past 25 years, and
has never missed a season during that
entire period. From the Bay City he
had charge of one of the ships oper
ated by the Alaska Packers Associa
tion, and he is said to be the oldest
man in the service and one of the best
navigators on the Coast.
The steamer Olsen-Mahoney, lum
ber laden for the California coast, left
Out on Sunday morning last; but as
she was crossing the bar the immense
strain on her steering gear snapped
one of the chains and she had a lively
few moments on that smashing bar
rier. She soon had the jury tackle
set and slowly wore her way round
and returned to port where the gear
wa properly repaired at the Astoria
Iron Works. She made another at
tempt to get out yesterday morning,
but the bar was even rougher
than on Sunday, and she came back
to her berth at the Callender, and
will probably make it this morning-
The Olsen-Mahoney was in collis
sion with the Burnside bridge in
Portland on her way to this port,
nd the big highway had to be closed
to public travel until it can be re
paired. It is credibly rumored on the As
toria waterfront that Captain Byrne,
of the dandy little Heathen has taken
over the command of the new Man
tanita, as suggested in these col-

This leaves the line of promotion
open to First Officer Hammerstrom,
of the Heather for the place on- the
bridge of that vessel; while his place
as first officer, will, it is said, fall to
Second Officer Ledbetter, of the Col
umbine, who is the ranking second
officer in the lighthouse fleet in this
district. It is also said that other
changes are contemplated in this
group of fine and able sailors at an
early day.
The French bark Asineres, loading
lumber for Melbourne, at the docks
of the Hammond Lumber Company,
under the supervision of Captain
Johnston of the McCabe, Stevedoring
Co., will probably finish today and
have to the lower harbor preparatory
to departing for the Antipodes on
the first easy bar. She will take away
in the neighborhood of 1,500,000 feet
of lumber.
The steamer St. Helen's arrived
down early on Sunday morning and
left out for sea and San Francisco.
On her way over the bar she caught
some tremendous seas, and it is re
ported that she was compelled to
jettison a fair slice of her lumber
cargo before she made it to her
offing.
The French bark Eugene Schnei
der, being loaded by Captain Ritchie,
for the Brown-McCabe Stevedoring
Company, at the Hammond Lumber
Company's docks will not be com
pleted for 10 days yet, and will then
sail for the United Kingdom for or
ders. She will take about 1,600,000
feet
It is said that Nicholas Clinton, of
this city, will serve the steam launch
"Requa". now lying at the Callender
pier ready to depart for San Fran
cisco, as chief engineer. With the
present inclement state of the weath
er and sea it is problematical when
she will get away on her dangerous
voyage.
The steamer Lurline came down in
good season yesterday; and when she
went up stream at 7 o'clock last even
ing, took with her the following nam
ed people: C. R. Hart, H. H. Cole,
A. N. Gittire, G. Gungstad, D. Mark
ham, Mrs. Newman, Miss H. E.
Loy and-L. A. Loomis.
At o o ciock yesterday morning
Operator "Fuzzy" Ferland, of the
United Wireless on Smith's Point,
picked up the steamship Buckman
on cascades Head. She expects to
reach Seattle at 10 o'clock this morn
ing.
ine on sieamer Atlas came in on
Sunday and discharged a huge cargo
of fuel oil at the Standard tanks in
this city, and is now in the channel
awaiting a Dar smooth enough to
leave out on.
ihe steamer Asuncion, Captain
Bndgett, is m the stream, bar bound,
but may have made it out for Cali
fornia during the night or early this
morning.
The Casco was one of the vessels
to arrive down stream on Sunday and
she is still in the lower harbor wait
ing for the bar to become amenable
to bottoms like her.
The Arabia from the Orient via
San Francisco, entered port on Sun
day, and went on to the metropolis
at once.
The steamer South Bay will prob
ably leave out today from the Ham
mond Lumber Company's docks at
Tongue Point, for San Francisco.
The Hammond liner Geo. W. Fen-
wick, is due in this port at almost
any hour and will load again for San

the franchise declared that this tax
should be imposed on every passen
ger and freight car ind trailer.
Councilman Curtis led an opposition
to imposing any tax, and in this he
was ably seconded by Couticilmen
Prael and one or two others. Coun
cilmen Belland, Leinenweber and
tSangc land insisted on the tax.
Finally the clause was carried pro
viding that the tax should be im
posed on all cars that were used "ex-
clusively" in the city, which of course
j virtually meant that no tax would
I ever be laid, as the cars are intended,
j for interurban traffic.
The city charter very plainly re
quires that no franchise may be
'granted without providing for a
j revenue for the city from it Atten
tion was called to the charter provis
ion by the city attorney, Mr. Aber
crombie. Thereupon, when the clause was
finally carried without providing for
a revenue, Mayor Smith said he
thought he would be compelled to
veto the franchise because it was not
in accordance with the charter.
At that suggestion the matter was
reconsidered and the $30 tax imposed
on all "passenger cars" entering the
city. While none seemed to present
any strong argument against the tax,
quite a number frankly said they
wished to lay no stone in the way of
the building of the road. "But the
road that can't pay the tax can't fi
nance peanut stand," interpolated
one of the members. -
The franchise seems to be an ex
cellent one on the whole, and cer
tainly is not in the least harsh on the
company.
WILL IMPROVE.
The ordinance to improve Eigh
teenth street as it leads to the Scow
Bay Iron Works was passed as orig
inally proposed. The remonstrances
of some of the property owners, who
wanted only a cheap or temporary
repair, were not acceded to, as it was
the sense of the streets committee
The Germany tramp steamship
Christian Bors entered port on Sun
day morning last, from Victoria. She
proceeded up stream, but it is not
known here what cargo she is to take,
nor where she is billed to.
The steamer Cascades entered port
yesterday morning bound for Goble
for her return cargo of lumber, San
Francisco bound.
When the steamer Wenona departs
for Gray's River this morning she
will bear the remains of Annie An
nette, or "Russian Annie," for burial
in the Seal River cemetery.

WILSON VOTES NO.
During the discussion of the street
car franchise the clause was 'read
providing that all city officials, the

this on the ground that it looked "too

on the provision, but it carried.

JUS JUDGMENT
LAW PROFESSOR HANDLES
FEDERAL CIRCUIT COURT
UNSPARINGLY
CHICAGO. March 1-Judge K.
M. Landis, was entirely right legally,
ethically and morally, when he struck
his $29,240,000 blow at the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey, through
its sub-corporation, the Standard
Oil Company of Indiana, according
to Charles G. Little professor of cor
poration law in Northwestern law
school writing. in the current number
of the Illinois Law Review,
In the course of his argument,
which is carefully bttilt up from fun
damental principles, Profcsor Little
handles the decision of the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals un
sparingly. He explains the delay as
due to the desire to await until the
heat of unintelligent controversy,"
had abated. He takes it for granted
that Judge Landis was, as charged by
his enemies and boasted by his
friends, actually striking at the Stand
ard Oil Company of N'cw Jersey,
which was not convicted, when he in
flicted his fine on the convicted In
diana corporation.
'The real problem in this branch of
American jurisprudence," says Pro
fessor Little, "is how shall tlie real
corporate culprit be punished when,
in the network ol inter-corporate re-
ations, it' is oftentimes well nigh im
possible, not morally nor ethically,
but legally, to find that guilty per
son." The professor's conclusion is as
follows: ,
"If the New Jersey Company was
che owner of the stock of the Indiana
Company, then it was, in fact, though
not in name, before the bar of the
court for punishment.
To deny it would only to be wil
fully blinding our eyes to the real
situation. The grand jury having
been content not to indict it, its
judgment could be inflicted only di
rectly through the power of the court
to punish the Indiana company. The
learned judge who wrote the opinion
of the court of Appeals has confused J
the idea of conviction with that of
punishment."
