HARBOR BOARD
MAY HESITATE
Stating Of w. H. Davis
as the Attorney for
the Commission.
Haste in the Appointment
of Budd's Successor
Improbable.

Former Governor James II. Budd on
January 1, 1893, was elected to the once
of attorney of the State Board or Har-,
Dor Commissioners, San Francisco. Inc
salary attached to the Office is $500 per
annum- The term OF four years Lot
which he was chosen, expired on the 1S'
day of this month. Shortly after Dr.
Pardee was nominated for Governor Dy
the Republican State Convention a pro
gramme was made at Sacramento proVld-
ing that w. II. Davis. who was then the
executive secretary in the Governors OF
fee. should be elected by Harbor Commis-
sioners Klburn, kirkpatrick and Mac
kenzie to succeed Budd as attorney or thS
board
The Commissioners at the last meeting
of the board did not execute the pro
gramme. 1t was deemed prudent to de1er
action until to-day. Affairs at Sacra-
mento have since taken such shape that
a further pOstpOnement Is highly PROB
able. 1t is surmised in political circles
that Commissioner kilburn is not in sy M
pathy with the purpose Of the programme.
Moreover, 1t IS cOnjectured that COmmlS-
slCners Kirkpat trick and Mackenzie Will
not desire to take an active part IN the
distribution of harbOr patronage while
the subject of their own confirmation as
Commissioners is pending in the Senate
Should an effort be made at the meeting
of the Commissioners to-day to execute
the programme the session may become
decidedly interesting. When the plan 10
make Davis the attorney was devised Il
was supposed that the Senate would con-
slider and confirm the appointments or
Kirkpatrick and Mackenzie before the IN
aUguratiOn Of Dr. Pardee, but the Sena-
tors saw no good reason for extreme
haste in the premises and therefore took
the subject under advisement- 1t is pre-
dicted that the Commissioners will fol-
low the example of the Senate and pro-
coed with caution.

EE HE steam schooner Coquille
River ran into the stern Of the
Norwegian ship vellore during
II yesterday mornings fog, broke
her own nose and smashed several
thousand dollars worth Of the Vellore's
plates.
The Vellore was lying at Howard-street
wharf, moored, contrary TO the regula-
tons of the harbor, with some forty feet
Of her stern projecting beyond the end of
the wharf. The fog was at its thickest.
The Coquille River coming from Main
street and bound for Mission-street wharf,
held a course close in to the ends of the
wharves and when she reached Howard
street her bow found the stern of the
Nellore blocking the way. The steam
schooner was under slow headway, but
was moving fast enough to do consider
able damage.
Two Of the Vellore's plates were cracked
and ruined. two, others were bent and
about three feet of bulwarks were carried
away. The Coquille Rivers bow was
dinged in and whoever proves responsible
for the disaster will have to foot a fairly
substantial bill of damages.
The fog tangled up traffic all over the
harbor and there were a number Of mar
row escapes from collision. The ferry
boats ran on an hourly schedule until
afternoon
The steamship Pomona ran into Powell
street wharf and did considerable dam
age. The ferry steamer Oakland had a
narrow escape from collision with two
stern wheelcrs and the business of the
harbor generally was conducted under diff
fculties.
