MARINE NOTES.
The schooner Llaai Vance cleared yes
terday with a cargo of 56,000 feet of lum
ber for San Francisco.
- The Willamette Is falling rapidly, and
unless there Is en unusually long period
of warm weather. It I believed that
the water 'will be off the dock by Satur
day. . Henry Westbrook, local agent for the
Oregon City Transportation Company,
met. with the misfortune or having the
end of hi thumb torjl off yesterday
while engaged in moving heavy freight.
The Ruth and Pomona, running be
tween here and Corvallis. are complain
ing about the low stage of water In the
.Upper Willamette. It la believed, how
ever, that they will be able to make th
trip f or- ayrl weeks yet. .
Tb,Pred Wood arrived, tbi, morn
ing In tow. fit the Harvest Queen. She
come from Hokodate, Japan, with a
cargo of sulphur for the paper mills at
Oregon City. She. Is uader charter to
load lumber for. a. Southern port.
The British bark "Boroda, which was
taken off the beach below Coos Bay a
few days ago after iiaving been there 10
months. Is' now at Marshfleld. She will
be towed to San Francisco shortly to
go on the drydock. . From all outward
appearances the vessel has not been dam
aged to any great extent.
The Oriental liner Indrapura left
Yokohama for Portland June 2, and may
possibly arrive here tomorrow. It usually
requires from 1? to 20 days to make the
voyage. She Is bringing a fairly large
cargo from China and Japan. It Is said
that her , outward cargo wfll be an un
usually heavy one, consisting of lumber,
flou.n, ' cotton, sheeting, beer, etc.
The boat running to The Pallea these
day are . doing an enormous amount of
business. The passenger list Is un
usually heavy, partly due to the pew
railroad, known aa the Columbia North
ern, now under construction. ' Many are
going on pleasure trips to the Cascade
and St. Martin's Springs, while others
are going beyond ' the mountains Into
Eastern Oregon, where they, usually go
in the early Bummer'o 'engage In vari
ous pursuits until fad, 'when they re
turn to Portland. A great many families
are also, going, out camping for a few
,week; tnd jufSojTf'thl is making busl-
toes- brisk for- Th. Dalle boat.
