Re turns, but Refuses to Say More Than That More Water Is Found. i .' ' Although unable to make any definite statement In regard to tho depth of wiir tnnnri on the bar at - the mouth of the Columbia river In the-,, annual survey made by. the United States en gineers, F. C. Schubert; the assistant engineer who conducted the survey" and who returned yesterday -.afternoon from Astoria, said that they found more wat er than was. shown by last year's sur vey. He Bald that the jetty shows that It is doing good work. " The survey of the mouth of the river this year was made in a. much shorter time than Mb usual,, due to the good weather which prevailed during, the greater part of the time that the work was being done. Of the 10 days that it took to make the survey, only three were so bad that It was Impossible lor the United States engineer steamer Arag6to go out, and that time was well occupied in cleaning up What work was necessary Inside' the bar, says Mr. Schubert .The party left "here" a week ago Tuesday night for the scene of operations and the next day the survey was started. It required eight days less time than the survey of last year, when the party was out 18 days. When questioned In regard to the depth of water found on; the bar-this year, Mr. -Schubert said he was not in a position to give out the figures at present, but he expected the data would be worked up during the early part of next week, when it would be made public. , He said however, that , they found more water on the bar than last year, at which time the depth at low water was 26 . feet It is probable that it will reach pretty close to 30 feet this year. "We found the bar in better condi tion than last year," said Mr. Schubert, "The jetty showing that it Is doing good work, and everything looked very favorable. The ' channel is in about trie same location as was given in last year's survey or about one mile west of the Jetty, : We had a very smooth bar, which made it easy for us to push. the work through to completion in a much shorter time than heretofore." ' Echo Successfully Launched. ; Promptly at 8 o'clock yesterday af ternoon the new gasoline towboat Echo, built for the Shaver Transportation company, was launched at the yards of the Portland Shipbuilding company.

Rough weather was experienced by the converted bark Amy Turner for the first 86 hours after she left San Fran cisco, according to, Captain Turloff, master of the craft,, who said that she ran into a stiff nor'wester and a heavy westerly swell, which washed her decks continually. It is thought that some of her cement is damaged,! as a piece of one of her channels, was; broken by the tug as they were leaving port, and she took some water through that. During the first 24 hours' after she lef t the Bay CUy .the Amy Turner, which arrived here yesterday, afternoon ofi her first trip to this port as a cement car rier in the Ocean Barge & Towing com pany's fleet, made only about 65 miles, and on the next afternoon after leav ing San Francisco, which was Monday, she. was' only as far as Bodega Head. The tug, Dauntless,, which had her in tow, was having hard work to make any progress at all. . Captain Turloff said that she rolled in the trough and labored hard, under' water' most of the time. On the third day, however, the weather moderated somewhat "and' as she neared the Oregon toast her prog ress became' faster and she reached the mouth of the. river In. two days' less time than It took the, Girard C. Tobey to make the passage, occupying five days to Astoria. v " ; V; v ,v 's It is feared that a considerable amount of her cargo of 1570 tons of cement is damaged by water, but it 'Is not thought that there ' will' be as much of it in jured as there was on the Tobey,- which had about 2500 sacks wet Her hatches' had'not been removed yesterday -afteN noon, but she will begin discharging Monday morning at Supple's dock. This ir the first trip of Captain Tur loff to this port for the last five years, his . last voyage here being , in the schooner Bangor, of which he was mas ter at that time. He had command of that craft for five and one-half years, after which he took command of the barkentlne Andromeda, remaining in her for over three years. , During the last two years he has been ashore unUl he took the Amy Turner. , T .-, . , , - The Andromeda, which was the cap tain's last vessel prior to his going into the Turner, was a craft of many vicissi tudes and was first launched as a ship. Her rig ;' was afterwards changed to that of a bark and she was renamed Kenyon and sold to the Norwegians. She afterwards went aground in the Hawaiian Islands and . was sold" to Charles R. Nelson & Co., who changed her into a barkentlne, giving her the name of Andromeda Af er several s t Ii 0 Wculd-Bo Citizens Put on Thinking Cap During Sim- 1 v P-G Examination. . Amusing ideas of the' American polit ical, system were expressed by candi dates for cltirenshlp In Judge Morrow's department of" the circuit court yester day.

Finally Judge Morrow stepped in and told him he must give direct an swers. Tannasee admitted- he was ar rested once, but said it did nof amount to. anything. He was pressed still fur ther for particulars,; and said he was fined $15. for fighting several'years ago. ; It also developed that Tannasee took out his first paperr upwards of 20 years ago. He said he had simply neglected to attend to the matter of the' second pa pers.
