Disastroua EueCt OF tloods on the Jet
ties aud the Channel.
Information from Portland of q reliable
nature Is TO the effect that the recent
floods in the Columbia river have practi-
cally ruined the jetties at the mouth OF

and dredge out the ehannal anew before
navigation to Portland:will be safe. and
that. at best. the wheat shipping season
will be far advanced before any ships can
be sent out from there. so that the ship
