OCEAN, BAR,
BAY, DOCK
AND RIVER
The fine steamship Rose City ar
rived in port yesterday morning and
docked at the 0- R. & N. piers at
U M exactly. She had 286 people on
board all told, and Captain Mason re
ported that he had a fair trip all the
way up with a strong westerly swell.
He brought one of the heaviest loads
of general merchandise ever brought
in here on the up-trip of these ships,
his Astoria and Portland cargo ag
gregating 1700 tons. Off the bar he
passed the oil tank steamship Rose
trans, and the Russian ship Dundee,
bound in. The Rose City is fast tak
ing the place in the popular good
graces of the traveling public former
ly held by the famous old Columbia,
and the advancement of Captain Ed.
Mason to her bridge will soon estab
lish this as one of the pleasant tradi
tions of coast traffic. The Rose City
went on to the metropolis at 1:30
o'clock.
The French ship Desaix, Captain
Chateauvieu, arrived down yesterday
morning on the hawsers of the Ock
lahama ,and went to an anchorage off
the Tongue, keeping company with
the Asinneres and the Donna Fran
cises. On the way down and while
at anchor off Oak Point on Sunday
night last, the carpenter and the
donkeyman of the Desaix deliberate
ly stole the ship's dingy and deserted
The Hammond tug Lottie met with
a mishap yesterday about noon, some
of her machinery going back on her,
up in the neighborhood of the Ham
mond Lumber Company's docks, and
the Callender steamer Vanguard went
after her and towed her to the As
toria Iron Works where she will be
put in order at once.
The four-masted schooner Andy
Xfahoney entered port yesterday
morning under her own canvas and
came to an anchor in the city chan
nel off the Callender dock. She came
up from the Bay Gty in six days,
and will load out of Linton with lum
ber for the return voyage.
The Russian ship Dundee, Captain
Gustafson, from Callao, Pern, arrived
in port yesterday, in ballast and will
go direct to the Columbia mills at
Knappton to load lumber out for
English delivery. She had an un
eventful passage, save that in the
course of one gale en route she lost
some of her top-hamper and was hove
down for nearly a week.
The steamer Lurline came down in
good season yesterday afternoon, and
vent up stream at 7, as usual, and
took away the following people:
Max Mitchell, A. Julian, Richard
Bryan, Mrs. J. F. Koos, J. Powell, W.
in the dead of night Captain Cha-IT. bmitn ana Max strai.
teauvieu is very anxious to recover
his ship's boat as it was a handsome
little craft and of the value of about
$200. The men he cares nothing about
save that their capture would give him
t chance to punish them for the theft
of the boat. The Desaix will sail for
Falmouth, for orders, with her big
cargo of wheat, as soon as she can
get away, probably day after tomor
row. The steamship Breakwater made it
in from Coos in good season on Sun
day morning, and after a brief stay
at the O. R & N. docks, went on np
the river. She had her whistle with
her.
The voyage of the launch Requa
has been abandoned for the time be
ing and she will not go to San Fran
cisco until later in the season, when
softer winds do blow and smoother
seas prevail. Captain Leighton took
her over to the classic precincts of
Skamokawa on Sunday and found her
a snug berth in the pellucid back
waters thereabout
The Standard Oil liner Atlas came
into port on Sunday morning last and
went on up stream with her cargo of
liquid fuel.
The Alliance made her regular get
away from this port on Sunday morn-
The Astoria - Tillamook - Portland j ing for the Coos country, with good
liner Sue H. Elmore went to sea on business on all decks.
Sunday morning, with all the busi
ness she could take care ot, bound
for Tillamook Bay points.

The oil tank steamship Washtenaw
went over the bar on Sunday morn
ing bound for the coast of California.
The steamer Johan Poulsen was
among the get-away fleet from these
waters on Sunday last, going to San
Francisco, with a big cargo of lumber.
At the meeting Xf the Chamber of
Commerce last night the proposed
amendment to the constitution,
.herein it is Drovided that all of the
power and authority of the organisa
tion shall be exercised, and all its
work done, by n executive commit
tte of nine members, was introduced
by Mr. Whyte the manager. If
adopted by the Chamber this amend
ment will mean that in the future the
regular bi-monthly meetings of the
orjranixation will cease, for the gen
eral membership would then have no
further voice in the workings of the
bodv. Everything would be carried
k thr executive committee of
nine. ,
Naturally the proposed amendment
provoked no little discussion, though
it was only introduced last night in
accordance with the terms of the con
stitution, which provide that any
proposed amendment shall be intro
duced and spread on the minutes at
least two weeks before being voted
upon. The matter will be voted upon
at the next meeting, two weeks hence.
The big commercial bodies all over
the country are carried on in this
WAV. The idea is that it is not
readily possible for a large and di
verse bodv to act in a business-like
manner, while a small and active com
mittee can do much. It is apparent
that the smaller executive committee
is the only possible way of carrying
on the business of large organizations
as in New York and Chicago. Na
turally the question arises whether
the same reasoning would apply to
Astoria. Some will probably think
that it will not, for in the Astoria
Chamber the body is not large and
heterogenous, but on the contrary,
the active membership is usually
quite small and homogenous. Never
theless it is apparent the proposed
change will be favored by a goodly
number, who' will perhaps think the
work can best be done by the execu
tive committee of nine, for reasons
of secrecy, etc. One objection to the
proposed change was voiced last
night. It is pointed out that if the
whole work is placed in the hands of
the executive committee of nine there
is the possibility that the generaj
membership may fall off very largely
on the ground that some may thin
they will pay nothing into the coffers
of the organization as long as they
can have no active and personal voice
or part in the transactions. Thus
arguments pro and con were ad
vanced.
If the amendment does carry at the
next meeting, when it is to be voted
upon, it provides at that meeting
the committee of nine is to be elect
ed. Hence it will behoove all those
who are interestd in the matter
be present at the next meeting. It
to be the annual meeting, also, and
is particularly desired that the at
tendance be large. Questions affect
ing the whole Chamber of Commerce
will then arise for settlement.

Mr. Sully's conception of the role
