THE DALLY ASTOKIAtf, ASTOttlA, SATURDAY MOKNINti, SEPTEMBER 2, li3. New Tariff for Towing Ships. Yesterday's Oregonlan says: "Gener al Superintendent Baxter, of the Un ion Pacific, announces that the com rany will put in effect today a new tariff for towing ships on the Colum bia river, which will reduce the charge of towage from $100 to $600 on vessels, according to size. The larger the ves sel the greater will be the reduction. This will particularly affect grain-carrying ships as the larger class are used in that trade. This settles the question of Port land's supremacy as the grain market of the North Pacific coast. There is now en route to the Columbia, ton nage amounting to 05,000 registered tons, as compared with only 17,000 tons en route to Puget Sound ports. The improvements made for deepening the livers have been so successful that there Is now a channel from Portland to the sea sufficient to accommodate the largest vessels fully loaded, so that lightering hereafter will not be necessary. The bar at the mouth of the Colum bia Is a thing of the past, there now being a wide, straight channel , qar rylngi 30 feet of water at low tide, one of the flnesb harbor entrances In the world. Major Ilandbury, United Slates Engineers, went down to the mouth of . Willamette yesterday to set the dredg er W. S. tadd at work removing a small lump deposited during the late flood, In order to widen the channel. The lump Its a. small one, and from the nature) and smell of the de posit Is evidently formed of sediment from the city sewers. The pilots who wont down .the river to examine the chunin'l reported yesterday that they had found not loss thnn 25 feet at ev ery point With the facilities now possessed the depth In the rivers will be main tained and increased, and this wit the advantuge to vessels of a fresh water port, and low port charges, will ulways maintain the supremacy of 1 ortlard us the principal shipping point, of the Northwest. Efforts have lately been made by rival cities to Injure the name of this port by spreading broadcast circulars tillering to prove that ships' expenses here were much greater than on the Hound, whereas the disbursements have been about equal for ships of the same tonnage loading at Portland and Tacoma, With the reduced towage tar iff, everything will be In Portland's fa vor. We will handle not only all the grain tributary to the Union Pacific system, but will probably have to take much of tho Great Northern's business. It is estimated that the Or'P.t Northern's territory will pro duce something ilVe 4,)0),Ou0 bushels of wheat thin season, which Is equivalent to 40 average cargoes. There are only 12 grain ships now listed for all Sound ports, and in these times of scarce tonnage it will be impossible for Seat tle) or Tacoma to get enough ships, even If the vessels were disposed to go there, to carry the rest of the wheat. The Great Northern has an agreement with the new Waterhouse steamship Hue, which will In a few days be run ning steamers between tho Sound and Portland, and the road will thus be In connection with this city. Kvcn with the extra cost of bringing 'grain here from tho Bound, our -low towage and port charges and superior facilities for I ntuiting wheat will make it cheaper for exporters to Bhlp here than on the Sou ml. Shipowners, both British and Ameri can, have always favored Portland and the- Columbia river. Our harbor Is easy of access and the entrance is perfectly w.fe. Our charges, when high, did not deter In a great measure Bhlps from coming here, und now, when they ure bo much reduced, we may expect to see many more vest els headed this way." . C R. F. P. U.

They were very successful with game end llsh. Lytle had a rather peculiar experience In the latter direction. He took a rod and line one foggy morning down to Lake Washington, and seating himself In the grass, batted his hook and cast it out. Half an hour's fishing resulted in a basket of 23 beautiful trout. Then the fog lifted and he discovered that he had been sitting a mile away from Lake Washington, lie had caught the fish out of the fog. A hlllum Friends.
