' WANTS FULL AMOUNT DistrictChances Mad in Sped flcations.' - The "government evidently under rated the country's prosperity last year when congress appropriated money for . , the building of lightships and , light. house tenders because when bids, were . ' opened at Washington , the other, day .they were found to be far above the amounts appropriated, although ' these were supposed to be liberal. As a re sult new bids have been Invited and - they will be opened at Washington to , . morrow. . . 1 , , , Notice of the fsct that new bids will be opened at Washington tomorrow was ; received by Captain P. i. Werllch, In- spector jf this lighthouse district, 'this , i morning.. The matter concerns this die- - trlct directly, because among the vee- - sels to be constructed and tor which 'appropriations have ...been made, are lightship No. (I for the mouth of the Columbia river, 'and tender to be known as the Mansanita. The Mansu- nit Trill be one of the finest tenders afloat U the government can afford to ,rlay the. fancy prices asked by the pros , pectlve " builders, which Is, said to be far more than the amount appropriated. , : $150,000. The lightship, ft' was expected,' could be conatructed for $130,000 at the ' most, and an appropriation . for that ' mount was granted - last year. ' The . .. lightship la to be a steel vessel equipped . with steam power and propeller so as " telre .hara nt hereof )n mm nt hlng anchorage- by - the ' dragged, ".from her -eomjn; ' ""' 1 ." . "The cost of shipbuilding must have Increased fully 19 per cent,"; said Cap tain Werllch this morning, ill discussing the situation, "because the bids sub- 'mltted on the lightship and lighthouse tender for this district are much beyond the amounts appropriated. These - amounts were based upon the cost of vessels built In - recent years with - a liberal allowance for an Increase on ac count of the general prosperity - noted all around. And these bids were mostly submitted by eastern contractors. Some of the Pacific coast builders submitted figures, but they came nowhere within reach of the amounts available." s Some changes have been made In the specifications, ao It la understood, so as Ito at least bring the. cost. down.to.Jhe appropriations. ,. , DRIVEN ON.

' mETns shop Port fit ; Portland Commissi oa ' Brings Suit Ag-alas the Hide. X H. Peterson does hot Intend to pay the Port of Portland's price for having ths use of the drydock while repairing the f teamer George W. Elder. He asked for a' reduction several weeks ago on the ground that the work had been de layed for days at a tlme,ey conditions over which he had no control. The Port of Portland commission refused to grant any reduction whatever and so yesterday libeled the Elder for $4,788, which. It la alleged. Is still unpaid. The total amount of the bill-was $11,000, of which' something like $7,000 baa been paid. . The suit will In no way affect the sailing of the' steamer for San Fran cisco next week, ss a bond will be given by the people operating ber. That Mr. Peterson will fight the csss to the finish Is evldsnt because he says that he hae not been . treated, right by the commis sion. The rate charged the Elder la ths regular rate without a cent reduced for time Joatjn, getting material to the ground. and ao forth, and Mr. Peterson thinks this IS not just, because It was no fault of his that the dock was lo cated where those who patronise It are at- the mercy of one railroad. "I certainly- have not been treated right by the Port of Portland In this matter," said Mr. Peterson, "because they ask me to pay for the use of the dock when wa were unable to do any work there at all by reason of being un able to get our material there. The burning of the oil tanks at Portsmouth blockaded; the tracks for 11 daya and there we were with no material on band and the dock-practically useless to us." Furthermore, Mr. Peterson, think - he should be entitled to some consideration- because of the fact that he under took and carried out a Job successfully that perhaps no one els would have dared to attempt.' He risked his money and spent at least $100,000 of it here getting the vessel off the rocks at Go bi and In shape to leave the drydock. - The-rslslng and - repairing -of the Elder means another eteamshlp out of Portland to California porta, and this, he says. In Jtaelf ought to be sufficient to, have let him have the dock free of charge. But be haa already paid $7,000 on account, and believe that about enough. . ., LONG THE WATERFRONT 7 . - y '-"' The German steamer Eva will finish loading lumber at tha mills of the Port land Lumber company -today.

It I believed her tbat th relation between th Southern Pacific and tha California . tin of th Union Pacific, coupled: with th Illinois Central, will furnish something real In th consider ation of parallel lines, sine the Illi nois Central and the Southern Pacific both tap the same country south, while the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific tap the ssme country on the Paclflo coast. A to the Paclflo northweat. there Is not . tha same condition ex isting with regard to parallel line and competitive business, although In a lesser degree tha Southern Paclflo fur nishes ground for an assumption that control of its Oregon lines would affect transcontinental business In - competi tion with the O. ft. A N., Oregon Bhort Line and Union Pacific Th news from Chicago concerning the proposed action of th Interetate commerce commission, when Shown to local representatives of Mr. Harrlman, elicited no comment. Mr. Cotton, gen eral attorney for th O. ft. N-. who haa Just returned from a stay of sev eral weeks in the east, said: - -i 1 tyettom Win ot Talk. Thsr 1 nothing I can ay for pub lication regarding th matter. I must be excused from dlsdusslng it" With control of the Illinois Central the Harrlman companies " will become important, factora In transportation of lumber not only from the Paclflo coast states, but from southern pine lumber mills. The Harrlman lines would tbas be able to make their Influence felt in the rate-making councils of eastern and .southern roads aa well as the transcon tinental lines. It le said the freight rate on !tmber from tha Paclflo north west to C ssissourl river hss already been forccu down to $1 per ton to' meet the competition ef aouthern pine. The lumber rate from the Paclflo north weat Is claimed' by railroad traffic men tot be below the' actual cost of operat ing, figured on the basis of operating expenses given In th annual, report of th railroads of th country. GHOST WALKING (Continued from Page One.) . In this connection neither Matthews, Hodson or ' Whitney - Is particularly anxious for the- legislature to-dlg-too-deep In the past history of tbe printing office, unless the work Is done as paat custom decrees, more with a whltewaah brush than with a spade. It is neces sary, therefore. If such Investigation le held, that the president of the senate and th speaker be friendly to paat con dition of things. With this In mlndy Matthew ha picked upon Senator Hodson, who exported th office two year ago, aa being on who would have no cause to rake over any dry bones. Combination Zs Desired. 1 It is the desire of Mr. Matthew, and of Senator Hodson that the latter be president of the aenate, but if that can not be, then it la the Intention to make Important committeea, - Including the printing committee and possibly such others as will have to do with railroad, banking, Insurance and similar bills may be named by Hodson end his friends In consideration of the support which the Hodson camp can swing to the favored candidate at the psycholog ical moment ' Such an arrangement. It la thought, will be the next beat thing to the election of Senator Hodson aa president. '' v- A would be expected Mr. Matthews denies participation In any suoh deal. He says he Is out of politics "now and forever." affirming that there I noth ing In It, that It wears th mind with out eolaclng the purse. He knowe noth ing of politics or politicians or their movements, and does not wsnt or In tend to- find out anything. But yet his tireless efforte and the energy shown by his friends, the consultations and the persuaalon point to what la confirmed by the ststemente of thoea who bave reaaon to know.
