The deepbas3of the Fleetwood's whistle was not heard yesterday. The little oraf t did not leave Portland. L J. Arvold has made satisfactory ar rangements with his creditors and will resume business to-morrow. A good way to judge of a man's "ability" is his alacrity in paying his ueots ana meeting nis uonesioougauous. Few wheels were turned on the Colum bia yesterday; the wind, ice cakes, ducks and galls bad everything tueir own way. California papers advertise for sale "Oregon butter." Oreson papers adver tise ''California butter," and honors are easy. The Miles took a crowd of skaters to Ilwaca yeitsrday morning, and in the afternoon the Sam took an equally large number to Skipanon. Jos. Hume is in the city. Ho will act the ensuing season as general business manager ot the North Shore and Kaapp ton Packing companies. JJ. V. Monteith has accepted the posi tion of bookkeeper at J. 0.

The Northwestern Lumber Company of which previous mention has been made will operate and control the sawmills nt Knappton, at Coos Bay and at Gray's harbor. The east wind had less gelidity in it than the day before. In sunny spots the snow melted, greatly to the chagrin of the boys who found their coasting tracks disappearing. To-day rubbers will be in demand. This thing of packing water to make steam with is not a bit funny. If the boiler explodes and kills one of the com positors the water company will have a big suit for damages on'its hands or head or shoulders as the case may be. The Queen which left here yesterday morning was at Oak Point at 4 o'clock and probably got through. The Heed came down all right at 7:39. There will be but temporary detention, though the officers of tho boat report tough travel ing. There will be a free sociable at the Y. 21. C.

One of the boys that were coasting on Benton street last Monday night fell off his sled and blacked his eye. A doctor waB called in who found on examination a contusion of the integuments under tho orbit, with extravasation of blood and echymosis of the surrounding cellular tissue, which was in a tumefied state with abrasion of the cuticle. The Cargo of the Sea King. The relative cost of loading vessels at Astoria and Portland has on various oc casions been shown in these columns, and has not been contradiotcd. The Sea King which sailed for Antwerp a few days ago furnishes an additional instance concerning this matter. This veasel loaded about half her cargo at Portland and then came down here to load the re maining half. An axiom is defined to be "a self-evident truth." Tho following figures demonstrate the axiom that ves sels cm be loaded at Astoria at less ex pease to the produser taan at at Port-i rl T .. - ... o Er.-. Towage to Portland and return. $ 67C 00 Pilotage 90 00 Time on way 8 cts per ton par day 477 44 Lighterage on 1101 tons $1.25 1,3:50 00 Total $2,629 44 The Sea King took out 2255 short tons. At the rate tho As toria Transportation Company oharged, ligaterage would nave been 1,409 75 In' favor of Astoria as against Portland $1,219 G9 This give3 "the producer," in whose in terest the Portland shippers talk, an op portunity to see just wuere the bulk of the profit goe3. If "C ' should wisa to attempt an answer to the above by ask ing "why didn't your Astoria Transpor tation Company carry the grain if you flay it could have been carried at 02 cents a ton?" it can be said in reply that Portland shippers first promised the company their trade and afterward re fused it when called on. So Near and let so Far. On a recent slippery morning an elder ly and corpulent citizen was carefully picking his way down the street, when he noticed a small boy with two front teeth gone industriously sprinkling ashes on the icy walk. The elderly citizens heart bounded and his eyes glistened. With a muttered word of approval he impul sively pulled off his glove and shot his hand down deep into his pocket. The boy saw the movement, heard the jingle of silver, and smiled expectantly. Tho elderly citizen recovered his band, looked fixedly at the boy, fitted the lingering re mains of a plug of tobacco into his mouth, and passed cheerily on, while the boy sat down on the hard, cold sidewalk -with a dull and passionless thud. It is things like these that cover our oceans and creeks with boy pirates. JiiHt Received. A large stock of soft and stiff Hats In all the latest styles, at Mcintosh's Fur nishing store. Talentiaes.

The resolution was adopted. Un motion the council adjourned. Shoulder Pockets lc Coats. Pockets have taken a new freak and have invaded the hitherto sacred pre cincts of the back of the neck. Who put them up there first is unknown, as they have appeared simultaneously in a dozsn different cities. Tney are used mostly as receptacles for newspapers and books of no special value. Overcoats are now made witu two pockets directly over the shoulder blades and present a unique appearance. At first some difficulty is encountered in getting at these pockets, and the wearers are obliged to take off their top coats to get at the contents, but in time this trouble is dissipated. The man m the coat, however. never gets over a certain ungainliness in reaching over his shoulder for a newspaper, as he has to give an upward hitch of his whole frame in order to strike the desired spot. This never fails to amuse persons walk ing behind him, the action being bo sug gestive of tho futile attempts of a man to scratch the center of his back. It is not believed that this innovation will ever become popular, but those gentle men who have tried the new style are enthusiastic over its advent and they say that they would not rsturn to a state of fiatbackedness for anything.

Is fast being completed toward Baker City. It has readied a point nine miles east of Hun tingdon. From Baker to tho end of the O. S. L. track is about fifty miles. The people of Colfax are organizing to resist in the courts the appropriation by the Northern Pacific railroad company of the lieu lands recently assigned by the interior department fa the vicinity of that city. It is stated that the Oregon Improve ment Company will pass its March and also September dividends, the directors thinking it best to apply the money earned jtoward liquidating tho floating debt, about $l,250,lXX). A deed from Chas. Crocker and wife of California to W. H. Bosse of Now Bed ford, Mass., for 33,783.15 acres of the Coos bay wagon road land, was last wtek filed for record in the clerk's office of Doug las county. Consideration, $1.75 per acre. The company formed at Victoria to run a line of steamboats between Victo ria and points on the Fraser river and un the east caast route in opposition to the Canadian Pacific Navigation Company, has several Chinamen among its stock holders. Tho Jist learns that a party of loggers from Astoria have bought a "large body of timber on the Pernne slough, below Cedar landing: and will shortly com mence building a new shute and skid roads, preparatory to a season's work. They will put in logs and piling. The Chinese bill reported from the sen ate committee on foreign affairs, is not Very much like that proposed by the Pa cific coast delegation, it is, in fact, the same bill presented to the delegation by Senator Miller, and which was not con sidered strong enough by house meni bera. Tho Post says things are booming at Yaquina bay. Work on the railroad is progressing and preparations are under way to increase the force. Car building shops are being erected at Yaquina City; the tunnels on the road are being driven from both ends, night and day; teams are in demand, and hay sells at $00 per ton and oats at 75 cents per bushel. Robert Harris, tho new president of the Northern Pacific Railroad, is de scribed as a tall Yankee of the Lincoln typa, black beard, eyebrows, and abun dant stock of black hair, keyed up to the highest pitch of nervous intensity, and patting chain lightning into all he does, whether telling stories and having a good time, or running railroads. Gen. Miles, commanding tho depart ment of the Columbia, asks for improve ments at Fort Walla Walla $15kto, and for Vancouver barraoks$ja,Ou0. Tho sum of $U,030 will be required to put Fort Stbvens in fighting o.itr. Gan. Miles maintains tuat Fort Spokane, Coaar d'Aleue, Walla Walla and Vancou ver barracks should bo the only perma nent posts in the department at which troopa should be maintained. Tho weather throughout Eastern Ore gon and Washington is raported very cold, all points showing a thermometer below zero, with clear skies. Tho state of the thermometer was as follows at the points named at last acceunts: Ripana 12, Dayton und Wallula 1C, Walla Walla and Ceiilo 8. Umatilla and the Dalles 10, Willows 18, Grants G, Blulocks 1, Pendleton 25, Hood River 4, all below zero. The eastern section has sufficient snow to protect grain. Samuel Glover, writing to a friend in Baker City, says of the Coaur a'Alene mines: "Nearly every one I have talked with seem to think the mines are both rich and extensive: but they all have ground to sell, and that very cheap. One man said he took 1,6j0 out of his claim; he sluiced two days and cleaned up $4'j0, and yet he is broke. Now, to bo honest, I don't think it best to be in a rush as the whole country is taken up. if the mines prove to be rich there will be just as good a chance after the rush is over. At present I think the mines greatly overestimated." The Sound tug-boats have combined and raised the pncis of towage. These prices range from $225, for towine a ves sel of 503 tons or under from Cape Flat tery to Seattle, to $2.j0 for a vessel of 500 to 800 tons, 275 for a vessel from 800 to 1000, $300 for 10D0 to 12J0 tons, $325 for 1200 to 1500 tons, and $350 for ld)0 to 2000 tons. To Port Blakely, Port Madi son and Seattle, the churgesare tho same, to Tacoma and Ctsaladv S25 hicher on each class of vessels, to Nanaimo and Burrard Inlet li5 higher on each class of vessels, to Port3 Gamble and Ludlow $25 lower on each class, and to Ports Townsend and Discovery $30 lower on each class. These charges, says the Post Intelligencer, aire a great advance on those of a few years aso. Then a shiD like the City of Brooklyn paid $225 for towing irom me uape to Seattle, now $350. The advance charges bear heavily on shipping in the coal and foreicn lum ber trades, all ship3, in fact, but those belonging to the mill compinie3 owning the tugboats named. T'uese ships, or their owners and masters, complain loudly at the increase. -With other burdens and with the decreased rate from $3 to $2.25 per ton given them for their outward cargoes, it seams likely to drive tho coal carriers out of the trade. Most of the caal ships will come among tho highest class vessels, and to tow in and tow out at the rate named will cost them $700 at Seattle, $750 at Tacoma; and $950 at Nanaimo.

On tho morning of Saturday, the 9th, the collier Umatilla struck near Cape Flattery a rsef of rocks, ind crushed her foremoit port. A b'.iniing snowstorm andahaivy gilewjra prevaiUng at the time. Captain Frank Worth, finding the vessel sinking, g ivo orders to launch the boat He wint in one boat with sixteen men, the sjcond officer took the second boat, with thirteen men, and the first offic.r, John O'Brien, with four men, launched the life raft and made for land. When O'Brien looked back from a dis tance he saw the vessel floating. He turned his life raft for the Umatilla, and heroically clambered aboard, and with his men set the foresail and attempted to make the Columbia river. The steamer Wellington then hovo in sight. O'Brien made signals, and the Wellbij w.i yave the Umatilla a line and towed her into Esquimalt harbor, where sho sank in forty-two feet of water. The last seen of the boats with Worth and crew, and the second officer, they wtre ncaring land, and it was supposed they were saved. Captain Frank Worth" has commanded tho Umatilla from the time she was launched until now. He is a native of New Jersey, aged 40 years, has a wife and little girl in San Francisco, and is re garded as one of the best navigators on the Pacific osean. He was a universal favorite, and thare is much anxiety in regard to his fate. First Officer John O'Brien belongs in Portland. Ho formerly was master of the American bark Edivin James, owned by Ainsworth, which plied between Port land and China. He has a wife and two children at Portland, is regarded as an experienced sailor, and his gallantry on this occasion is commended in glowing terms. John L. Howard, assistant manager of the Oregon Improvement company, re ceived telegrams from First Officer O'Brien, dated Victoria, which substan tially corroborate tho foregoing part.cn lars. He characterize the first officer's conduct as brave, and manifested great concern for Worth'. safety. In relation to Worth he said that there is no better man on the Pacific coast. He is regarded as safe, and the company has the great est confidence in his ability as a navi gator. Flattery rock is a dangerous rock, and is alwavs covered with water. While the Umatilla was endeavoring to make the cape it is supposed she was driven from her course by a furious storm and struck on the reef. At a late hour on Sunday a telegram from Port Townsend states that no tid ings had been heard of Capt. Worth and the thirty-four men who left the ship in the lifeboats. Fears are entertjined that thev may be lost, as the coast is filled with rocks and precipitous overhanging ledges. The revenue outter was lying at Port Townsend when the news of the accident reached that place, and she immediately text tor Mean bay, m search of tho miss ing crew.
