The Icebound ateamera are the Bailey ' Oataert. Iallea City, Capital City, Her culea and Joaeph Kellogg. The Capital City and the Dalles CHy reached their r Portland-wharf at an early bpur.thle ; morning and their bows were fringed 1 with huge tctclea that had formed from the- apray coming down the Columbia, .

The tug started In search of. her thro days ago. . but - has not yet re turned - to portr-and It is -not known whether or not she has found the wind jammer. ' i : At first It was feared that the bark would never be able to ride - out the storm that waa raging when tha wen on tha Samson realized that the only way to save the tug waa to slip the hauser, even at the risk of the baric foundering. The tug put Into Marsh- Held for temporary repair and Uien started out to find the bark. Since then nothing baa been heard from either. - Shipping men are cf the opinion that tha bark la afloat and all right They believe the captain stood - far out to sea. aa . soon aa he discovered himself left on. his own resources, and it may take several weeks to work back again. 7 ,; RUMOR IS 'DENIED r 7 Sailor .of River .
