C OMPANY (Incorporated) Still Rising Slightly, but Is Not Ex pected to Go Much Higher Now . With the exception of a slight fall reported at The Dalles, the river still continues to rise, but not so fast as yesterday. In the local harbor It has leached an eight foot stage, which is the highest yet this spring. As the present cool weather continues no higher stage is looked for. A slight frost was reported last night, but no serious damage to growing crops is feared. In a dispatch from Nome, Alaska. It Is reported that the ice has left the shore and started seaward. The tem perature Is nearly the same as here in Portland, a maximum of fij degrees hav ing been recorded Vednesdav. The drifting icefloes will no doubt harass the early fleet to a slight extent, but the warm weather is regarded as a sign of an early spring in the far north.
