Have Bid in for ; Big Steamer

Wrecked. , ..'
WOULD HAVE THE VESSEL
ON SAN FRANCISCO RUN
Alameda la Fine Steamer and Run
1 i ' ning Her Alternately With theCo-
' , v lumbia Would Give Excellent Ser-T-vice.
Between Portland and 'Frisco,
't Bids for'the purchase or the steam
hip Alameda,, wrecked a couple of
months ago at San Francisco Heads, will
be opened today at San Franclaco and
-- there la a strong- probability that she
will be bought by the Harrlman peo
ple and- placed in operation between
. Portland and the California metropolis.
': The Ilarriman Interests have a bid In tor
the steamer, and It is understood that It
' la In the neighborhood of 1300,000.
The Alameda belonged to John D.
Bpreckles and was running between 8an
Franclaco and Honolulu at tba time ahe
. met wKh . tbe accident. , .'Then she be-
- came the property of' the underwriters,
- who succeeded In floating her, and took
' the vessel to the- Union ' Iron - works,
where she has been repaired and made aa
" good aa new.' A representative otUhe
San Francisco A. Portland Steamship
company made a thorough examination
of the ateamer a few daya ago and sub
, ml t ted a most favorable report. N On the
"" strength of hla f Indinga the company de-
elded to try to buy her. ' :
Few steamers on the' coast are au
v perlor to the Alameda. She has' a carry
ing capacity of 2,000 tone and her speed
.". Is placed at IT knots an hour. . She can
take care of about 700 passengers and
- the accommodations are of the best. If
' she Is secured by the San- Francisco A
Portland Steamship company she will be
" placed In service at once, alternating
' . with the Columbia between here and the
- Bay City. It ia possible for her to make
the trip one way in St hours, but it Is
supposed that 48 hours will be about the
" service that the ownera will attempt to
- maintain with her. It - takea the Co
lumbia all the way from S to it hours
to complete the passage, .. "
""With the Alameda and Columbia' on
this route It le said that a more Tegular
" and better steamship service will be
maintained between Portland' and San
Francisco than ever before. - In addition,
; there will be the usual number of other
- craft operated by the outside lines..

-The Costa ' Rica arrived last evening
from San Francisco and the work of

i SLEEPY DRIVER HURT. '
Team Overt nxaa Wagon and Man Valla
. en Soatfeonse, .
Drlvlng a team sttaclied to a farm
wagon while sound 'u Bleep, an unknown
man wandered down to the foot of Oak
street near midnight and narrowly, es
caped death. When the horses saw that
the river blocked 'their way they at
tempted to . .turn around. (The wagon
waa backed over- the -elde of the -dock
and the aft running gear struck on the
roof of a scow, where the vehicle
lodged. After falling on the roof of
the boathouse the sleepy driver rolled
down the incline of the structure and
landed in shoal water and a lot of rub
blah. By this time he waa wide awake,
but bleeding from his topmast to his
keel.
The watchman was roused by the
stranger's yells for help. He finally suc
ceeded In scrambling back on the dock
and made arrangements to save the
wreck' of his wagon. The Wakeman
Morris Transfer company was called
up by phone and soon sent an outfit
to the scene to pull the wreck ashore.
When the work had been accomplished
the bleeding 'ranchman paid the bill and
took his team to a livery barn. The
wagon Is still at the dock, but v the
owner has not been seen since late lest
night. .

Having raised sufficient funds by the

association at its meeting" last night
decided to proceed with the building of a

A special .committee waa appointed to
determine the , cost of such a building,
and to report a detailed estimate to the
association, after which bids will be
called for and work started.- The asso
ciation already has purchased- a lot on
Mllwaukle avenue and a volunteer fire
company has been organised.. The city
also has promised enough apparatua to
maka the work of ths eompany effective.
The growth f the suburb snd the dis
tance fm city fire protection caused
the organisation of a stock company of
cttlselns, who subscribed money to pur
chase la site sad build a hall, the city
being 'asked only for enough apparatus
to make the volunteer , organisation
worth while.
