Rice has sent his report to Gov. Rogers,
covering the result OF his investigation
of the charges filed against N. c. Kofold
and J. J., Brumbach.. of Ilwaco. as WASH
bia river. by the third member of the pilot
board Charles T. Smith The charges
were that Kofold and Brumbach had dis
eliminated against Washington boats and
pilots; that the two named had received
money unlawfully from the Oregon pilot
pilots.
The special grievance was the refusal Of
the board to license the schooner Jessie,
owned by Robert Carruthers. of Astoria.
This boat had been under commission by
the pilots holding Washington branches
board. but the owner substituted scrap
iron as ballast for the pig lead which had
been in her and sold the latter. The pilots
then declined to go out in the boat, claim
ing that the scrap iron ballast would shift
in a storm. and the board refused to re-

OF any money having been used Illegally
was the statement of Mr.. Brumbach that

rotary of the same board.
The report concludes with the state
ment that but one thing stands out clear

that is the lack of harmony in the WASH
