0resonian Ayers Chinook Has
Not Provided Increased
Depth on Bar.
LAME PLAN TO GET MONEY
Believed Here Official Survey
win Show Much More Water
Since the Advent of the
Former Transport.

IN an effort to emphasize the abso-
lutte need Of an appropriation by the
present session, of congress, for i'm
provement Of the Columbia river bar
the Oregonian has found 1t necessary
to defame the dredge Chinook and to
ridicule her accomplishments at the
mouth OF the Columbia river. Il. w.
Wright was down last week to secure
the necessary Information" and re-
sumo Of his findings appeared in sun
days oregonian
According to the narrative related by
Mr.. Wright, there is no more water at
present on the Columbia river bar than
there has heretofore been. He says
soundings were made when the big
bark Andorhina was towed to sea, and
that the depth shown entirely dis
proves the highly colored report sent
out from Astoria concerning the work
of the Chinook. Mr. Wright concludes
that the Chinook can not be relied up
ON to furnish the necessary depth, but
that 1t must be secured by means Of
an extended jetty. The Chinook's
work at the rivers mouth is likenedI
to the efforts Of one small man affected
with pulmonary tuberculosis and other
wise physically incapacitated. to remove
one very large mountain. II congress-
doesn't make the appropriation. the
harbor win suffer incalculable injury, |
the oregonian writer says.
The statement made that the Chi
nook has not increased the depth on
the bar Is not in harmony with state
ments made BY the pilots who visit the
rivers mouth every day. officers Of
the Chinook likewise state that theI
depth has been materially increased
since the arrival Of the iredge. For
the purpose of determining exactly
just. what has been accomplished in
this respect, the tug George II. Mem
dell was assigned to make soundings.
and it is considered somewhat remark
able that the result OF her work was
not awaited before the defamation Of
the Chinook occurred.
1t is generally agreed locally that
the Chinook can not provide permanent
depth on the bar This was not ex-
pected Of her, nor is 1T expected Of any
other dredge now in the service Of the
government. Dredges are permanently
located at different points and their
work Is ending. The opinionl
prevails here that permanent results
can be secured by extension Of the jettyI
but the feeling is growing that the
dredge win provide sufficient depth forI ]
permanent maintenance by an extend
ed lefty. 1t Is realized that there
should be no lack of jetty funds, but
the statement has been made at Wash
ington that the civil sundry bill will
contain the necessary item
While the need for ample improve /
ments funds is felt in all quarters, AS
torians generally deplore the fact that
the work Of the dredge should have !
been discredited in this manner. There /
is not the slightest question among {
local water frontiers that the Chinook ,
has accomplished good results, and that ]
1t should have been found expedient 5
to discredit her in order to urge more I
forcibly the need for an additional bar ,
appropriation is regretted |,

CAR HITS BOX OF DYNAMITE
NINE DEAD AND FORTY INJURED
IN PECULIAR ACCIDENT At
MELROsE, MASS.

Melrose, Mass, Sept. 23.-Nine per-
sons are dead and forty injured as the
result of a street car on the Boston
and Northern Electric line striking a
box of dynamite which had fallen from
an express wagon. OF the injured sew
eral are in a critical condition and
may die. A complete list of the dead,
as positively identified, is as follows:
DR.. Malcolm E. Mcclellan, Melrose
Highlands; E. B. Haynes, Melrose;
Mrs. E. B. Haynes; Marion, four-year-
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Haynes;
Mrs. Ada Crouch, Stoneham; Miss
Ethel Merrill, Melrose; DR.. Fred D.
Marshall, Danvers; E. A. Stowe, South
Boston; Winfield Rowe, Saugus, mo-
torman Of the car.
All but ten feet of the rear portion
OF the car was blown into small pieces,
while windows within a radius of a
quarter of mile were shattered.
The ground was strewn with legs,
arms and other portions of bodies, q
human foot being blown through q
window opposite.
The more seriously injured are al
most completely deaf as result OF
the conclusion when the car struck
the dynamite. although physicians
think it probable in the majority OF
cases hearing will return.
Roy Featon, driver Of the express
wagon from which the box Of dynamite
fell on the street car track, is still de.
tanned at the Melrose police station
pending the investigation by the au'
thorities. The dynamite slipped from
the wagon without the knowledge OF
the driver and he was on his way
back from a stable to recover it when
the explosion occurred.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 23.-The JAP

rapidly developing. General Kuropat-
at Rentsiaputze Is beginning to ad-
vance northward. The outposts
Wednesday tried to capture Kaoutou
pass, commanding the road to F'ushun.
The Russians are offering stubborn
resistance, which is likely to retard
decisive operations.
sKuropatkin has placed strong forces
astride the Mukden and Fushun roads
to Bentsiaputze.
The Russians also are holding all
the passes of the Da range eastward
of Bentsiaputze. ,...
. A dispatch from Hardin announces
that another Japanese regiment is
moving further eastward, but it is re-
garded as improbable that the Japan
csc will move in considerable force

Japanese succeed in reaching the Hun
