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

are in favor of the commission plan

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

Neumann gave up attempting to reach
Manila and Instead steered for Hong
kong. 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

tho clubwomen of Los Angeles today
are angrily discussing his new novel,
