TIIE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 10. 190fl. NO PROGRESS TO REPORT North Albina Push Club Delegates Will Face an Irate Crowd of Fellow Cit izens Toniffht Protec tion From Fire Desired. Once again has the delegation from the North Albina rush club climbed the marble atepe of the rlty hall to find put whether the city Intends Installing fire hydrant In North Albina. The cause of the visit following so closely upon the visit of last week Is due to the fact that a meeting of the Punh club is to be held tonight and the delegation Is expected to report "progress." Another cause was the fire which practically de stroyed the home of Bert Kcales, 1043 OantenJeln avenue. The committee waited on Chief Camp bell and Mayor Ijine today and asked whether the hydrants whloh have been lying on the city streets for many months have been tested, ready for In stallation. They found that tne ny drants have not been touched. "The fire at Scales" home Saturday night," said one member of the delega tion, "could have been put out much aooner than It was If the department had not been compelled to run a lino of hose 400 feet long. Had our volun teer department been furnished with the 1,000 feet of hose for which we have been asking for months we could have put the fire out with little damage. "Mind you, we are not criticising the fire department. The boys did good work, but It takes time to lay In 400 feet of hose, and the alarm was long In being turned In. Once the lino of hose was laid the department did effecttvo work In putting out the Mure. Til Shows the Needs. "But the fire emphasized the need of more hydrants. Across the street from the Scales homes Is the Kllilngsworth residence, valued at $10,000. Had con ditions been favorable to the fire this property, too. might have been de stroyed, all because of the lack of fire hydrants. "We have come up here time and time again to secure fire protection not bet ter fire protection, hut elmply ftre pro tection. We are at the mercy of a large firo If one should start, and wo want the conditions Improved. Our club will meet tonight mill when we ruport "nothing 1olng" something will be do ing" In a hurry. , Here we have waited a week, and the company owning the 86 fire hydrants has not turned Its hand over to have the hydrants tested and have them accepted by the city. "Such being the case why doesn't the water board rescind Its contract and purchase n new lot of .hydrants? We are growing very, very tired of the delay and there Is a movement on foot among our people to confiscate the hydrants and employ mechanics to Install them. This seems to be the only way in which we can secure hydrants." That there will be things doing at the meeting of the push club -tonight Is confidently expected by the members who called at the city hall today. The question of fire hydrants will be ex haustively discussed, and It Is expected that the discussion will end by the club adopting resolutions Indorsing the I"es Moines plnn of government for Portland A larpe number of members are in favor of the commission plan because of the delay they have experi enced In securing Improvements In their MAKE DIFFICULT REPAIRS AT SEA Oriental Liner Arabia Loses Propeller Blade in Storm. r IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT SMARTLY DRESSED MEN WILL WEAR THIS SEASON, ASK BEN SELLING BACK FROM CIIINA AND WAY, PORTS Ibarra Overland Freight at San Francisco and Comes Here With Small Quantity of Gunnies, Tea and General Merchandise. Full particulars of the accident that disabled the oriental liner Arabia on her westward voyage were brought to Portland for the first time when the big linft reached Alaska dock yesterday morning. Instead of having been wrenched to pieces by mammoth seas the vessel lost part of her propeller and received a bent shaft on her way from MoJI to Manila. Reluctantly the officers tell of how the propeller was repaired at sea dur ing a high blow, a new blade having to be screwed on tho large propeller partly under water all the time and completely submerged every time the big craft would go down by the stern as she heaved on tho heavy seas. Captain Neumann gives the deck offi cers and engineers great credit for hav ing performed a good and dangerous piece of work when they repaired the fropeller. The liner was one day out rom MoJI on June 1 when Chief Kn glneer Lutz discovered the engines working strangely. Investigation re vealed one of the propeller blades gone. To make repairs It was necessary to shift the cargo of flour Into the for ward part of the vessel to bring her dowu by the bow, and this kept every bodfrom the captain down to the messboy working steadily for 24 hours. In the meantime the craft was sent off her course under slow bell to a shel tered rla08 between the Tong ChA and Kau Tau Islands,- where anchor was dropped. My bringing tne steamer aown ny me bow the propeller was raised to within bout two feet or the surface or the water and pontoons were hung over the shies to which the engineers clung while removing the piece of the broken blade and replacing It with a new one. This was a dangerous piece of work because with the rise and fall o' the steamer the pontoons would pound heavily against the iron sides. After about 24 I hoiii of perslntent work the task was I accomplished. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm But no sooner had tho liner gotten " - - - - lLrV""tth?Ub, ly tomorrow.

There the vessel was repaired In a few days. Coming east the Arabia called at Japanese ports, Honolulu and San Fran cisco, and as a result brought only about 200 tons, all of Ir consigned to local Importers. The overland freight was discharged at San Francisco. The weather from Japan was very fair, ex cepting near the mouth of the Columbia river Saturday, where a dense fog caused a delay of several hours. The steamer brought over an orang outang, a Siamese ape and a lot of singing birds. The Arabia Is In charge of the same officers as on her last visit here, as follows: Captain Neumann, Chief Offi cer Hcrwitz, second orncer Corneisen, Third Oflcer Kchulter, Chief Engineer Lutz, second engineer Hamann a year.
