The heavy wind yesterday morning
between the houra of 3 and S o'clock,
tore up things generally from one end'
of the city to the other. In Unlontown
the old Seaside cannery warehouse was
knocked off Its underpinning 'and Is
now a total wreck.
The Norwegian M. B. Church In Up
perto'wn was unroofed and Its windows
and doors blown out. A. T. Bracker's
house, next door to the church, was
struck by flying debris, and the gable
end was considerably damaged.
At the Oregon Improvement Com
pany's bunkers the whole roof went
over Into the bay.
Pieces of the roof trimmings of No.
Three's engine house went early In the
game. Down the street a short dls.
tance the tall galvanized Iron smoke
stack on Swan's restaurant, became
weak and leaned on the adjoining build
ing for support.
The Scottish Glons, anchored off na
vel's dock, shifted her anchorage to a
position on the sands, tout was easily
removed at high tide. One of the gov-
language. The meaning, ihowever, is
generally clear, though It might have
been better expressed. Shipmaster are
advised that when their vessel is lying
at a dock, the "off-Shore anchor must
'be suspended ready for dropping." "SuS'
pended" Is a very good word, but Its
use In this connection caused, great
hilarity among the skippers. Then,
again, the ordinance says that "lower
yards must 'be braced sharp on the
inshore braces," This is a matter
which must be regulated according to
circumstances. To prevent mud, sand
or gravel from falling Into the river
from a ship discharging ballast, the
law provides that "a cenvas chute" be
erected between the vessel and the dock
but does not specify whether the bal
last be sent through this chute- or
dumped from a bucket.
Perhaps the most remarkable state'
ment of all, and one which created
the greatest merriment, is in the sec
tion relating to anchoring In the stream
In which the captain Is Instructed to
moor his vessel with the "bow tor-
ward." Harbor Master Fitch denies
having had any hand In the drawing up
of the ordinance.

ernment barges also came to anchor on
the sands.
The chimneys on F. L. Parker's resU
dence were damaged to some extent.
Up by the Clatsop Mill, when day
break came on, the scene resembled a
place recently visited by a Kansas cy
Ttie committee appointed by the water
commission to examine the various
bids on construction, as well as the bids
on bonds, found a greater work on
their hands than at first anticipated. It
was a big Job, and the deeper they
plunged into the pile of papers, the
more apparent became the fact that
it would take several days to go over
the various proposals and decide on
the lowest.
Up to date the bond question has not
been decided, Mr. Van Dusen having
agreed to give S. A. Keen, the Chicago
bidder, 48 hours to make a necessary
deposit to show good faith. The wires
were down all day yesterday, and al

The beer hall and variety theatre that

praying that a license for such pur

want to start an estuilillHhmetit of that

where the affair can tie conducted
