i Sunday schools tosee what thcjr can do
towards adding to the fund being col
" iccted by Ben Selling for the thousands
f "starving Chinamen around Harbin
- Sir. Selling has made a direct appeal to
wvery church arid Sunday school In th
state-of -Oregon.
f "I know of several churches," he said,
that arftilngtO-Uhe.. up collections.
Jf wish every church and every Sunday
school In the state would try to neip in
reaae the fund."
Mr. Selling figured up the contribu
Hons last night and found that b had
received' $8S6d In all." H8Q Deing .on

r - One hundred and fifty dollars In small
: contributions was received by Mr. Sell-
Ing yesterday.
. v On man who has not been able to
leave hie bed for montha sent In a
Check for $20. A proud father carried
Ma baby, a year and a half of ago, up
to Mr, Selling" office at Fourth and
Morrison streets yesterday afternoon.
The child laid a dollar on Mr. Selllng-a
desk, i--'-1 - ----- - -p
"My Auntie's a missionary In Slam."
piped the child, "and I want to give a
dollar for the' Chinamen.'' Her nama
went down, on the books as a banner
contributor.
-I am still waiting," Mr. Selling said,
fbr those $20 pieces that local men in
the state wero to send to me. If they
know hoir many lives that eoln, wonld
save I believe they would not hesitate. "
Mr. SeUIng will keep up the work all
t this week. Ho expects to complete
the second 16900 fund In that time. As
soon as he does ' complete It he will
end th money to China by cable. He
thinks that tho state of Oregon should
gtre at least 120.000 for th relief of
th stricken cninamn.

. If public sentiment counts for any
thing In the bridge draw fight between
the county court and the federal offic
ers. It Is pointed out that the county
officials should win easily in the' con
tention. The mall of County Judge
Cleeton and Commissioners Lightner
and Hart each day contain personal ex
pressions In their favor. Booster -and
improvement clubs have endorsed their
stand. Business houses hav taken
vote among their employes and sent
the result' which Is almost entirely
unanimous in favor of the court Word
comes daljy also from persons in other
cities, wishing the county victory. Let
ters hav been received even from per
sons outside the state.
.. Tbe members of the county board are
under the criminal charge of violating
th federal regulation governing the
closing of draw bridges on navigable
streams. They were recently an-psted,
and their case Is now pending in the
federal court They were released on
their own recognizance.
In view f this volume of correspond
ence and general Interest, the county
court yesterday afternoon decided to
maks a public acknowledgement of this
feeling. Robert Bhaw. clerk to the
court M answered many letters tnd
expressions, Dut the court adopted a
resolution authorizing th following
statement:
"Owing to the great number of citi
zens, organizations, club, and associa
tions that have expressed their com
mendation of the stand taken by the
county court with reference to closing
mo arw, ana me many kind and gen.
erous offers of assistance and assrur
anoe ox good-will in our threatened
prosecution by the government we take
this method of expressing our, sinew
thanks to ell, and to assure them that
we appreciate this support realizing
tliat. It is only by the combined effort
of VI organizations and cltlseu that
w can hop to be successful in bring
ing about a reasonable regulation of th
draw bridge question.

"Conditions In Mexico are muoh worse

tered at th Hotel Seward yesterday,
having Just come up from Mexico.
"My wife and 1 left for th City, of
Mexico last winter," said Mr. Qephart
"We had heard la'k of th revolution,
but thought It amounted to littl. We
found th Dlai government bard set to

"I aent my wife Into the states again,

good idea of what is taking plac there.
Th northern part of th country la all

To attempt to minimis th aertou

"American enterprises, . which mean,

of It 1 that from . th outlook whtl I
waa there, these conditions seem bound

Mr. Gephart was' unabl to say what
the effect of the1 American demonstra

the conditions In Mexico further , than
that It would 'Stop filibustering across

that ,cf "th Bayoceah,t which Is to he
ready for iervtc between Portland and

two0"f6tsna "88 ;f eetrbuttbey are
scarfed so .that the length la brought
down to 112 , feet vTh keelson, which
will be laid next 1 composed-of three
pieces of. timber 60 feet 48 foot and 32
f et long. From now on tho work on
th boat is expected "to progress rap
ldly,J Jt will be -necessary to. rush -it
because of the fact that less than three
months remain In which to complete
th' craft.
The Bay ocean Is to be a passenger
yacht type of boat with gasoline, en
gine as th motive power and ah will
be provided with 'triple propellers. It
is estimated that she will bo tbe speedi
est craft of her kind on the coast and
under ordinary circumstances she Is
calculated to make 17 miles an hour
without being crowded In the least. Her
engines will develop nearly 600 horse
power and she will have accommoda
tions for about 100 passengers. T
. When completed the Bayocean will b
placed on a summer run between Port
land and Tillamook by her owner, T. B.
Potter, and with her estimated speed
and the fact that she will carry noth
ing but' passengers she is expected to
be particularly popular during the sea
son. She is to cost about $100,000.

At high tide yesterday afternoon the
steamer M. F. Henderson towed the
barge Gerard C. Tobey up from the
tower " harbor through the bridge to
the Supple dock where she will dis
charge 40,000 sacks of cement from San
Francisco. She waa drawing 24 feet but
the Henderson had no difficulty In get
ting her from the main channel to th
deep channel in front of the dock, al
though It waa thought that that might
be the cas.
The next on of the Ocean Barge ft
Towboat company's craft to come here
with cement will be the ' Amy Turner,
which will , also l hav about 40,000
sack aboard. It ia expected that she
will leave the Golden Gate In tow of
the steamer Olson & Mahony, which
will- sail from there March 25 with
cargo for this, port according to I. W.
W. Brown, agent of the Olson ft Ma

The local waterfront is watching
with interest to see whether the German
ship Kilo which left down for Astoria
yesterday morning,' will get jout to sea
today,, as if she does they are expect
ing an interesting race between that
grain carrier and the British bark In
vermay. which got to sea yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock. Both windjam
mers are bound for the same port for
orders, and although the Britisher will
have about a day'a start if the Ger
man gets out thla morning, It Is
thought that th Kilo will have a good
chance to get around th Horn and Into
Queenatown or Falmouth as soon as
