There has been no stearaboatlng on the
Clearwater since the-const ruction of the
railroad through that section some 19 or
' 11 years ago, but during certain periods
' "of the year a number of log ' rafts are
' floated down the stream. Big Quantities
'of grain are raised tn that territory and
the settlers are desirous of. having the
'government make the river navigable, ao
. 7 that they may float barges of wheat
from the headwaters to Lewlaton. On
- account of the numerous rapids it will
- be an expensive undertaking, but whether
It will meet with favor- by the war de-
s part men t depends on (he report which
;Wlll be forwarded by Mr. Ogden. '.' : '
' He states that a number of large grain
warehouse have been established on the
high plateaus 'beck of the river from
'which wheat 1a -carried to the railroad
'by mesne of elevated tramways. Some
. - of these are a mile long.' At one' point

Dr. N. O. Blalock. the pioneer hortl
,,, culturlat, made a trial trip with his
- little steamer. Island Queen, yesterday
afternoon. .The Queen ran about half
- way- to - Oregon- -City- and attained " an

. Blalock waa highly pleased with the
, boat, and in a few days be will take It
. up the Columbia to : Blalock's' Island,
i. about 40 miles above The Dalles. Dr.
Blalock Is conducting an experimental
farm on the Island, and he will use the
Queen in making trips to the mainland
' and also for pleasure Jaunts up and
down the Columbia.
The Island Queen was formerly a
houseboat. Dr. Blalock bought It a
' few weeks ago and asked Joseph Bupple
to convert It into a sternwheel steamer.
Mr. Supple ntted the boat with gasoline

-The Knight
8teamtnar for-St day without rmo
trient's stop and covering a distance of
14.871 miles is a feat which wss . re
cently performed by the British steam
ship Knight Errant, captain jonn cen
dall, now . In the harbor. She thereby
broke the world's record.
The run waa made from Cardiff,
Wales, to Port -Arthur, Just prior to the
breaking out of the - Ruaso-Japaneae
war. She was carrying a cargo oC coal
consigned to the Russians, who were
then in possession of that port. : Before
he. left rumofs of war were in the air
and the owners were desirous of having
her make a quick paasage.
Aa aha was laden with coal it waa not
necessary for her to put into a way
port and replenish her bunkers. Nothing
went -wrong with her engines Or ma
chinery and she kepf reeling ,'pff the
knots at a high rate of speed during
every minute of what proved to be al
most a two months voyage. The of
ficers say that no other steamer In the
world has such a record for continuous
running to her credit. -
In making a long passage a steamer
feet and tjhe Queen waa ready for busi
ness. .-. When the changes were . being
made tr. , Blalock , was on band at t
o'clock; every morning, and be was
greatly interested in even the slightest
piece of work done by Mr, Bupple's boat
builders. - - -; - .1- " -.-.V '

Early this morning the British steam
ship Coulsdon, Captain Henry, arrived
at Astoria from Japan, and Is expected
to reach port tonight. She Is under

and flour for the far east. The steam

tramps under charter to load for Japan
and China are due to put in an appear

her machinery frequently gets out- of
repair and causes short delays.
Figures were produced yesterday to
show that the Knight Errant will carry
80 more tons than the steamship Algoa
Is capable of .handling, and therefore
she is entitled to the additional distinc
tion of being the largest steamer that
ever came up the Columbia river. She
haa plowed through the1 seas under a
burden of 14,000 tonyof freight, but
about ;12.000 tons la the amount aha
usually carries. - '

trouble and la now awaiting a charter
In Astoria harbor. The Durbrldge la
the - first -sailing ship of the season to
arrive in ballast to await a charter for
thla aeaaon'a grain. She sailed rrom
Portland about a year ago lumber laden
for Port Natal, and after discharging her
cargo began her return paasage to in is

Captain Nelson of; the Swedish ship
Clan MscFarlane haa received a cable
gram announcing that. bis vsssel has
been chartered to load grain at Portland
for the. United Kingdom. The freight
rate waa not given.
Laden with lumber the schooner Alex
ander left down this morning bound for
San Francisco,
Jose H. Sbavelear has resigned the
position of river observer at Bonner's
Ferry, Idaho, and haa been succeeded by
Pullman Van Oaskln.
It is expected that the work on the
Oceano will be completed In time for
her to b floated from th drydoek this

has been engaged to come to Portland
from San Francisco to load either grain
