at least one would be led to think 30 on
looking over their marine columns, for
no mention is made Of her since her de-
parture from Portland the first Of the
week. News regarding the Christine,
Garnet Hin and other vessels Of the grain
feet that have met with mishaps and de-
layed a week or two, as the case may be,
by being stuck on the sandbars, was
omitted at the time by all Of the Port
land dailies and nothing is krown Of thesc
accidents so far as the public there Is con-
cerned. A vessels departure from Port
land and her sailing from the Columbia
river is always noted by Portland's pa
pers, but news regarding accidents and
delays occurring to vessels on the way
down the river 70 always suppressed
Probably this Is done by the oregonian
fer the purpose Of demonstrating that
the river is deep enough for ships to
pass through at any stage Of water.

caution to keep ship of the banks.
This was demonstrated by the German
ship Christine, which grounded at the
mouth of the Willamette a few weeks

erage to bring the vessel into deep water
cost the owners $500. Two more wheat
laden vessels are ready to leave Portland
but their departure will likely be delayed
until more favorable weather sets in.
