Two (teamen end three steam achoou ra arrived In the river last night to load general cargo and lumber, and the bark Homeward Bound waa towed to the mllli of the Portland Lumber company this morning. The waterfront presents much busier scene today than Satur day. The steamers are the Harriman freighter Costa Rica. CapUln Mason, from San Francisco, snd the Gray Steamship company's Coos Bay Uner Al liance. Captain Kelly. The steam schooners chat crossed In are the Johan Poulsen. Nome City and Thos. L. WanO. The feature of the arrival of the craft waa the fact that the steamer 'AHlanoe and the steam achooner Thos. t, Wand tested their speed qualities between Coos Bay and Astoria. They ran a real live ocean race, and the Al liance won by 30 minutes after a steady run of .11 hours. It was about as evan a jace as was ever pulled off. and a fewure of the race Itself waa the fact that Captain Hardwlck. maater of the bbs. L. Wand, was formerly and for many years captain of the Alliance. CapUln Kelly of the Alliance saya the Wahd left North Bend on Coos Bey 10 minutes before the departure of the Alliance, and the latter reached Aatorla exactly 10 minutes before the Wand. Out-at sea the two coasters ran almoet abreast of each other for several hours, and the IS passengers on the Alliance enjoyed the sport Immensely. The Alliance arrived In the harbor t 9:80 o'clock last night and com menced 'discharging freight early this morning at Couch street dock. She brought four csrloads of Port Orford rednr, commonly referred to as match wood, three carloads of sashes and doors and two carloads of salmon for shipment , east In addition to a lot of dairy .products for Portland consignees.

The Harriman liner Costs Rica hroughfla full cargo of general freight and commenced discharging at Alns worth wharf this morning. She reached her dock st 7:10 o'clock last night, after uneventful voyage. THREE LINERS HERE unch Up in Fort- . With the arrival of the steamer dost a Rica last night there are three Hhrrlmen liners In the harbor at one time with none at the other end of the route. The Barracoota got In a. couple of daya ago and Is atUI discharging cargo, while the big steamer Astec Is about to complete loading lumber at the Victoria dolphins. The Costs Rica commenced discharging freight at Alos- at a care regular pair mat calf pair worth wharf this morning, and being the amallest craft of the three, will probably get ready for the sea aa soon as ths two larger liners. An Idea of the Immense quantity of freight being handled between Portland and San Francisco by ths water route alone may be gained from the fact that all of the Harriman liners now in tne harbor came laden to the hatches, which mean that they brought approximately 7,000 tone of cargo. All of them will go out full without having to wait for freight TO CARRY LUMBER the Columbia SUver. The steamer Caarlna left Ban Fran cisco yesterday for the Columbia river under charter to load lumber at one of the mills on the lower Columbia. The steamer waa recently purchased by the Harriman Interests in connection with the transfer of the Coos bay railroad properties. Last ssasri the C sarin was a fre quent visitor hare and carried away large quanUtlaa of wheat for the North western Wsrehouse company. It Is quite prohabr that she will encage In the wheat-carrying trade thla Tall un less the lumber freights prove too tamptlng for her owners. The Csartna was formerly the British steamer O. W. Jones. The steamer Meteor Is also due here soon to load a cargo of lumber at the mills of the Portland Lumber company for California ports. The Meteor la another big carrier for her stse that last aeaaon assisted In moving wheat from here to San Francisco and San Pedro. MARINE NOTES Aatorla, Oct I.

SEEK TO HAVE CITY COUNCIL TAKE ACTION Declare Their Homes Arc Threat ened by Unsightly Pits, Which Are About to Be Reopened and Made . Much Deeper.. A large portion of North Mount Tabor Is threatened with ruin by the hug pita that are being dug by the Pacific Bridge company to get material for Its street-nil contracts. These pits are now IS feet deep and. the company is Installing heavy steam shovels prepara tory to taking out more gravel, which will double the depth of the pita, say the adjacent property-holdera. The real dents nearby are appealing to the coun cil for relief. They assert that the ex cavations now made Dover an area of 17 acres, and that If the plana of the bridge company are carried out K will amount to the practical deatrucUon of their homea. Councllmen Kellaher and Berfhett vis ited the seen of the pits Saturday afternoon. Councilman Kellaher sug gested that an ordinance might be passed forbidding the use of Mount Tabor gravel on the streets of ths city. Some years ago a part of Woodlawn waa dug and gashed up In a manner and for the same purpose as la now being done at Mount Tabor. The Woodlawn people Bought relief by means of a court order restraining ths continuance of the work; but the eourt decided that aa the parties removing the gravel owned the land from which It waa being taken, a restraining order would not He. The matter waa them taken before the council, with the result that an ordi nance waa passed prohlbltng the use of Woodlawn gravel on ths streets. This action waa not taken, however, until several blocks of residence property were all but ruined. In speaking of the Mount Tabor sit uation. Mr. Bennett, In whose ward the pit la, said: "It Is a difficult situation snd one hard to deal with. The situation Is serious for ths owners of the property near the pits. Another question to be conaldered la what effect It would have upon the street fills now being msde on the eaat aids If we should stop thsss sxcavationa at Mount Tabor. It might so increase the cost aa to prohibit making those nils. Still. I sm anxious to protect the homes of peopls living In the vicinity of these pits snd hope soms way will be found to do so." A masting of tbs residents In ths vi cinity of the pits will bef held tontght to determine a future course of action. A number of nearby property ownera dis cussed the matter with Manager Simon of the Paelflo Bridge company, but got no satisfaction. Th Paelflo Bridge company baa Intimated that It would buy the affected property, but His own era say that but a fraction of Its value was offered. When the pit waa started, It was out side the city limits, but since that time that territory hae been annexed to the elty. . The whole North Mount Tabor com munity la aroused over the question snd Is determined to put a stop to the fur ther desecration of that part of the city. store trouble for Contractor J. E Bennett!

The people In the vicinity of Cast Twenty-eighth street and Sulllvaft's gulch are oposed to the plan of build ing an elevated wooden roadway over the gulch on that street They urge that nothing short of a steel bridge will meet the requirements.

Th city Is rapidly spreading north and east from this ponlt, and a roadway over th gulch Is badly needed. The Mount Tabor Push club will meet tonight at Woodmen's hall. Weat avenue.
