Mr.. DELL ON THE FORT SITE
Gives Dates i'm Support of His
Contention.

John NJ. Shivey has often pointed
out to me the location of old Fort AS
ter" was the remark yesterday made
to an Astorian representative by Mr..
Sidney Dell. who was for many years
the attorney and particular friend Of
Mr.. John M. Shively. "on one occas-
ionP he continued, eve stood at the
southwest corner of st. Marys hospital
block. He pointed to the block diagon-
ally across the street and west of the
present Dement, residence, saying,
there's where old Fort Astor stood. 1t
extended northerly across the street
and little into the block west of ST.
Marys. It is known that Shively came
here in 1S4S and surveyed and located
Shively's Astoria in 1874. He was per-
haps the most reliable authority as to
the location Of the old fort. The block
designated by him 10 numbered lis in
his survey of Shively's Astoria. That
north of 1t Is No. 11S. Those are at
Fifteenth and Exchange streets"

HELPS THE CITY,

The determination of the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company to force
northern millmen to use the water
route In shipping lumber to California
Is not regretted in this city. The South
ern Pacific says the shortage OF cars
prompts he attitude, which means that
there will be a greatly increased num-
Der Of vessels plying between California
and the Columbia for lumber. The big
Increase in che number Of coasters has
been very noticeable of late months,
and tho beneficial effects are being felt.
Every vessel arriving here leaves con-
siderable money In the community.
The location at Astoria of the Hume
mill win also mean largely increased
traffic from this port II ever the harbor
lines are readjusted so as to alford
Accommodations for the vessels whichMr.
Hume desires to use. For many years
few lumber vessels made this port, but
now the number is increasing.

SEA TRIP IS
POSTPONED

Brothers refuse Duty and
Departure Is Delayed.

Captain Is Waiting for Instrue
tiOns From His Owners
Other Waterfront
Happenings.

As Captain Dearborn predicted, the
troubles Of the American ship Two
Brothers are not yet over. Yesterday
the crew OF II men refused duty, for the
reason that the ship was improperly
loaded and inseaworthy. To go to sea
in her would be little short OF suicide
they averred, and so they declined &c
turn to. Captain Dearborn has placed
himself in correspondence with the own
ers In San Francisco, and is awaiting
Instructions from them.
The crew ls high-saiaried one. and,
while the men were signed on at Asto-
ria, they all belong in Portland. Every
mothers son Of them ig member Of
the Iongshoremefi's union, and their
union tendencies make 1t very simple
matter for them to demand what they
believe to be right. Under the arrange
ment entered into between the men and
Captain Dearborn. the former are TO
go down the coast on the ship to San
Francisco and are TO be returned to
Portland at the expense Of the ship. The
captain Is willing to make almost any
sacrifice to get to sea. The vessel Is
In the lower harbor.

Trains Will Run
Through Sunday
Work Of Repairing the Railroad
Track at Busby Is Being
Rushed to Completion.

The damage wrought by the great
blast set on at Bugby on Wednesday
will he repaired by Sunday. when trains
viii be running over the point wherethe
track was destroyed. Superintendent
Mcclure has been at Bugby since the
blast with big force of men and the
work Is being hastened.
I. c. Mayo. general freight and pass
! enger agent Of the railroad company,
said last evening that the first report
OF the damage was exaggerated.
About 800 feet Of track was carried
away by the falling rock and earth."
said Mr.. Mayo. "and not 1000 feet, as
was reported wednesday night. l am
advised that the damage will be re-
paired by Sunday, and that transfers
will not be necessary after that day"
The mountain In which the blasts
We're placed faces the east, and 1t was
calculated by the officials OF the North
west Construction Company that the
mass Of rock would come straight down
The falling rock made proper start,
but part way down the mountain side
II came In contact with projection of
earth. which swerved It in the direc-
tion of the river. Three hundred feet
of track and roadbed was carried away.
and since Wednesday noon 1t has been
necessary to transfer passengers and
freight at that point.
The results OF the blast were not as
disappointing as at first seemed. The
explosion brought down hundreds Of
thousands Of tons OF rock. and, while
the larger part OF It went into the river.
there remains an available balance that
viii fully meet requirements until such
time as other blasts can be exploded.
The supply of rock at Bugby is practi-
c',liy unlimited and the loss OF the rock
viii not be felt. The blasting was, on
the whole, successful, and everyone
would have been pleased had it not
been for the accident that caused the
loss to the railroad company.
The giant powder used to blast out the
mountain cost $4,000. 1t was set OFF by
the expert in charge of operations at
Bugby. Mr.. Ord, who was the only per-
son within two miles Of the blum.
