Four Portland Men Have Unpleasant
. Experience In Fog.
An account of a strange marine mis
hap. Involving four well-known wate
front men of this city, has just come
to light after having been carefully
concealed by those in possession of the
facts who . were solemnly sworn to se
crecy, .- ., - -.
For" some time dense fogs have bung
over the river at night, making naviga
tion almost impossible. During one of
meaenignis a gasoline iaucn D earing
James Frue, Owen Jones, Frank Calla
han and W. H. Roberts, all connected
with the shipping business In one ca-
fiacity or other, started down the river
o meet-the British bark Dydgate com
ing into port from 6anta Rosalia. The
bark, it was thought, would be in the
vicinity of Llnnton, but the fog made
it necessary to have her anchor below
the mouth of the Willamette.
It waa late in the evening when the
party cinaiiy bid the Ly agate s master.
Captain Law. welcome to the fair-city,
and it waa still later when they started
for 'home.' The fog had" increased un
til it obscured evorytnlng. But the
launch captain was willing to take
chances and. the passengers were
anxious to get back home.
After aeveral hours' navigation It was
discovered that the launch had - been
steered In the wrong direction and was
bearing away from her destination with
every turn of her propeller. This was
a sad disappointment, but not quite as
oaa as tne one mat louowea aoout an
hour later, when the launch ploughed
her way -into a soft mud bank and
atuck hard and fast.
After much work the boat was freed,
only to again . miss the channel and
tick 5 in the mud. 'It was no fun to
work the boat off the beach every half
nour or so, ana o all consented to tie
up for the night when an old barge was
sighted near St. Johns off the shore
a ways. On it the four passengers and
the launch captain spent the night. It
was damp and cold and no fun. They
reached the city at 10 o'clock the day
after. ,, -
SEVERAL CONTRACTS LET

about December 1.
Word to this effect was received by
the United States engineers in this city
today and it was received with much
enthusiasm because the dredge is ex
pected to be of great service. It will

The new dredge will coat when com-
rleted, in the neighborhood of $240,000.

and as efficient as the best engineers
have been able to plan. -
Coming around from Newport News
the dredge will stop only at a few places
to store up and take on fresh water
supplies and possibly fuel, although It
is understood that the large hold w'.ll
carry almost enough to last the entire
voyage. But having to battle with rough
water, she will probably be given con
siderable ballast at the expense of her
coal supply.
It is figured that if all aoes well the
dredge should arrive here about 85 days
after her departure from Newport News.
