- Wanted Contract for Opsratlag Dry

Count 75 Sticks to tha Cord;
After being In session for almott two
hours yesterday afternoon the Port of
Portland commission decided to pur
chase a power plant of its own for the
operation of the drydock. A dlsiiat' h
.lyajutoxwarnwd fo.Q. B. Thomas, a mem
ber of tha commission, now tn tha East,
instructing mm to close a deal for ma
chinery of which he had sent a brief
description.
. The plant, which comprises a dynamo,
angina and other apparatus. It was esti-
mated, will cost laid down here in the
.neighborhood of 111,880. By the time
It is installed and ready lor operation
tha total cost will foot well up to the
820.000 mark. The machinery la new
- throughout Mr. Thomas reporting that
a was unable to get second-hand goods,
which he was instructed to do If any
' such could be found that would answer
the purpose satisfactorily.
J No one seemed to know what the ex
pense of running the plant will amount
to per month. It was argued that the
cost of operation would depend largely I
,upon the amount of business done. The
! opinion was aayancea tnat probably no
, more than two men, an engineer and
; fireman, would be required to- run it. If
oil should be used as a fuel Instead of
wood it was suggested that the force
might be reduced to one man, the engi
neer. For days at s time the plant will
.probibly stand iuie, and during all Such
-, slack periods, Jt was .explained the cost
of keeping up the enterprise will rep-
resent nothing more than the salary paid
the engineer and his assistant, if he
has one.
Samuel 8. Ileed of the Portland den
crol Electric company was in attendance
and submitted another bid to furnish
the necesHary power for the operatto
of the plant. He offered to do the work
for 8MIX per annum. Mr. Reed pointed
out the advantages which his proposl
tlon possessed, and gave plausible rea
sons why he believed It should be no
eepted. It was thoroughly discussed by
tha commission, which finally decided
that it would be a mora ecenomlca
plan to procure a plant of its own. The
offer of tha Portland General Electric
company contained one feature which
more than any other appeared to be nb
jectionable to the commission. The
Port of Portland was asked to make an
Investment in the enterprise to thn
amount of 810.000 or 812,000 in addi
tlon to paying the regular $4,400.
Peculiar Bula.
A communication was read from i
wood dealer at Stella offering to supply
the dredge Columbia with 100 cords of
wood at $2.40 per cord, and the cicrk
was Instructed to close a deal with him,
In this connection an interesting tiiscus
sion ensued relative to the manner in
which wood sold to the Port of Portland
has been measured recently. Commls
sloner Driscoll intimated that the wood
dealers are a little Inclined to give short
measure, and that they have adopted a
rule of measurement that cannot be
found in any arithmetic, algebra or other
book of mathematics ever published.
He says they count 76 sticks of wood
and call them a cord, without even pll
ing the timbers up in the customary
rick style. They are counted as thev
are being thrown on' the dredge, and it
Is said that the fellow who does the
work often counts more rapidly thnn
he handles the wood. In other words
he can count three by the time he
throws off one stick.
A communication was received from
MaJ. Langfltt calling attention to a
meeting to be held at Astoria for the
purpose o Inquiring Into the harbor
line at that place, and also to one rela
tive to the reconstruction of the Morri
son street bridge.

Dr. C. F. Candianl. Italian consul at
Portland, has received specific instruc
tions from Signor Morlnl, tha Italian
minister of marine, looking toward
minimizing desertions by sailors Tiere.
In substance, the Italian minister of
marine declares:
"I shall not allow any. foreign seaman
to embark on an Italian vessel at any
port, unless he can show a permit from
lis own government or some " consular
representative for this purpose and that
he Is an able seamon."
Consul Candianl says that too fre
quently a man will ship- oh contract
under a foreign flag then desert when
he reaches Portland. Ha will then ap
ply to Consul Candianl to ba allowed to
embark on an Italian vessel.
"He must give me proof that ha has
not broken his contract with a former
employer," said the consul. "He must
show me that be is a"practtcal seaman
and that ba is allowed by his own gov
ernment to enter tha Italian marina ser
vice or any other he may elect I will
not ship crews that may desert at tha
next port ana tnen set up tha claim that
they are not Italian sailors, but French,
English, Swedish or American seamen.
"Deserters can thus easily be caught!
and no "crimping" scheme will avail. I
can impose imprisonment for two
months upon any deserter from the
Italian merchant marine service, I shall
Insist in every case that tha existing
treaty between Italy and tha United
States shall be literally obeyed. I ex
pect that all this will, cause trouble."
