SCHOOL Pins Oregon Pine Export- Lumber Com- . pan? Charter French Bark. The Frenoh bask Gael was chartered this morning by the Oregon Plna Ex port Lumber company to carry a cargo of lumber from-, this port to England. She is expected to begin loading as soon as the cement cargo she brought here from Antwerp lias -been discharred. Thia is. the first' French vessel en gaged for lumber on this coast for some time, and it la 'the more out of the ordinary by reason of the fact that this la the time of year when grain cargoes are supposed to be most easily obtain- aoie. The Gael arrived in the harbor about the first of the month with a cargo of cement consigned to Mayer, Wilson & Co, and will have the cargo discharged in a few days, unless some sort of a hitch occurs to check the progress now being made. , .. ., The Oregon Plde Export Lumber com pany ' dispatched , two sailing-ship lum ber cargoes front this port for Kurope a lew wbk ago. , xne cargo or tne uael will consist of large timbers. COQUILtE JETTY COMPLETE. Depth of Wate?'nt Channel to Ocean Very Satisfactory. Assistant United States Engineer James 6. Polhemus. announced this morning that the Jetty project at Co- qullle ha been completed and that there is now 12 feet of water on the bar to the bay where a few years ago the depth was only four feet. The im provement is considered remarkable. The work done this year at Coqullle consisted of extending the north Jetty about 200 feet to a point in line with that of the south Jetty. Thia caused a contraction of the channel and gave the water a scouring effect. In order to give ever better water than now secured some dredging will grobably be done In the bay later on ut It will be carried on under , a new project if appropriations are eventually made. The sawmill men of Coqullle bay subscribed a fund and engaged a pro fessional diver from San Francisco to blow up a ledge of rock that for .years had obstructed navigation in the bay. y fiscSB tsjzzt.

REVISIOII OF CITY CHARTER DELAYED At this morning's session of the city council the members granted the re quest of the charter revision committee for an extension of time in performing their work by voting to have the re vision committee report to the council at Its first meeting in February instead of In time to place the amendments on the ballot in the November election. A committee of five from the revis ion committee waited on the council and through Senator John M. Gearln asked that instead of reporting for the No vember election that the time be ex tended to the June election of next year. He said that this would be necessary for an Intelligent consideration of the work before the committee. Councilman Kellaher moved that the committee report to the council at Its first meeting- In February in order to give the people time to consider the amendments which the committee will propose. This action was taken so that a special election can be held If the committer finishes Its work In time to give the people an opportunity to con sider the amendments before voting upon them. Wheat from tha Inland empire dls- rlct tributary to tha north bank road and consequently tributary to Portland. Is now being shipped to (the city by the Seattle. Portland ft Spokane., road, by rail to Lyle'and Vancouver and by boat from these point to Portland. Kver since the opening of the wheat shipping season tne north bank road has been hauling Portland-bound wheat to Lyle and thence.transferrlng.lt by boat to Portland. In this manner la r ire quantities)! of wheat that have hereto fore Tone over the' mountains to Pugot sound have been- brought to Portland. Included In the list of shipments also was a lot or last year s crop whlcn had been held' for shipment bv the farmers aiong me roaa. A week ago tne shipments became so heavy that the transfer facilities at Lyle became Inadequate to handle the grain without great congestion, and con sequentlv a new train was out in oper ation J through to Vancouver. The steamer Qeorsle Burton was chartered to handle the wheat between Vancouver and Portland and since that time has been making dally trips loaded to the guards at each trip. Wheat Is comlnr In large volume by rail; yesterday's arrival reaching the high-water mark of 242 cars. NO, POWER (Continued from Pag Ona) at sometime In tha past through Ita councu. JTl Power too Mitfhly. "In this connection I wiah to say that many others beside' the honorable board of railroad commissioners, (and I pre sume that even some member of the city council Itself), seem, to be under tne Impression that the i-ailway com pany must cease to operate Its line, upon Fourth street. In the month of November of this year, Inasmuch aa an order to do ao waa made by the city council by ordinance some 18 months ago, and that if It should fall to obey such order it can be. or will be forcibly ejected "therefrom. . "In respect to this impression I Wish to say that it is my opinion that it Is based upon a false estimate of the lower of the council to enforce Its or er in this respect and that an effort made to compel the railway company to ceaae the use of the atreet having for Its authority nothing more effective than such an order will fall. This rallroadjts operated under a franchise from the city which la spe cific In its terms and under those terms the city council has the power to con trol the manner of Its conduct in such way as to prevent It from becoming flther a nuisance or a source of danger. both of which It now Is. When it comes. however, to compelling It to remove its line from thia street and to stop oper ating Its cars thereon it will require a diirerent procedure ana neither a prayerful solicitation, or an attempt to enforce a mere order will accomplish the result. 1 , Moat Bepeal Franchise. "If it Is the intention of your hon orable body to force this line off Fourth street It will be necessary, in my opin ion, for you to first repeal the exist ing franchise. Quite naturally any ef fort made by the city to do so will only be successfully accomplished at the end of a law ault, and It Is no more than fair that the people of this city and others should be disillusioned from the false hope that anything Is to he ac complished in this direction as a conse quence of what has been done up to this time. "In my opinion the franchise Is void for the reason that It contains no clause limiting its life to any definite or spe cific period of time. "It Is without a time limit in its terms, snd for this reason Is bv its rep 111 '. 11 , I '; : 0-:s. :?I ''vl ' " O'is II 'St ' Ih ,:Kn.

"The question as to whether the city desires or can afford to cut Itself off from communication with the country and people to the- west and south of it la another matter but the fact that the presen method of he conduc o'f thia rail railway is both a, source of danger and a nulsanoe in beyond any question,. .
