AxsI Soffmunson, Drowned on
Saturday Evening, Recovered.
BROTHER DRAGS FOR CORPSE
Discovered Within Forty Feet of the
Spot Where He Ssnk-Badly Dis6g-
ured by crawfsh--Funeral Arrange
ments Not Yet Made.

All that Is mortal OF young Axel
MuDson, who lost his life Saturday ey-
sning by the overturning Of his boat
under the Fisherman dock, now lie- in
the undertaking parlors Of Coroner W.
&. A. Pohl, in t..is city.
The search for bis body was insti-
tuted yesterday morning by his brother,
who was assisted all day by one of the
Marion brothers, and at O'Clock in the
afternoon their indefatigable labor was
rewarded. Axel was found beneath the
fishermsns' dock, and within 40 feet Of
where he fell from his duck boat, and
even in the short time he was sub
merged, the epawfish played sad havoc
with his features, having attacked them
oil, but not past recognition. He was
brought to the surface with drag. and
"a soon as be was discovered an i'm
mense throng gathered on the dock and
upon the net racks, and had to be
warned of the latter for fear Of its
collapse.
: Coroner Pohl was Immediately noti.
fled and took charge Of the remains. IL
is not thought an inquest will be neces-
sary on the premises as the facts In re-
lation TO his death are 30 clear and well
known, and preparations for the fun
eral will be made ut once and announced
as soon a. made.
While the unfortunate lad has been
known throughout the city by the name
OF Munson, Ia concession to the Ameri-
can love of brevity,) his real name is
Axel Soffmunson, and he was the young.
est son of Mr.. and Mrs. sEnglebraght
Sofrmunson, who dwell at No. 80 Duane
street. The family has the sincere and
widespread sympathy Of host of peo-
pie, neighbors and friends, upon the sud.
den and tragic trouble that has overtak:

Hammond Company EndeavorIns
to Secure a Dredse.
NO DANGER OF A BREAKUP
Failing to Secure a Dredge Another Ef-
fort Will Be Made to Float Nine Mil
lion Feet Of Piling at Extreme High
Tide, October 7sth.

The big raft Of piling from Stella Is
still on the spit where il was hung up
on September 20 and up TO date all
efforts to move il have proved futile.
II looks very much now as though the
raft would never be moved intact, for
at low tide yesterday IL was apparent
that il was at least eight feet hibher
than when floating naturally.
The raft was inspected yesterday af'
ternoon by an Astorian reporter who
was enabled to make the visit through
the courtesy. of Charles i. Mitchell, re-
eeiving clerk at Calender dock, and Cap.
tain Hulse who made the trip TO The raft
with the tug Wenona. Careful inspection
Of the raft gives one the impression
that there is no such thing to be appre.
hended a. its going to pieces for 90 tons
Of chains That are used TO bind il togeth-
er would hold the piles in place until the
crack Of doom.
Men who should know what they are
talking about say that the chances of
getting the raft off the bar intact are
a. 100 to and that ii will be neces-
sary TO break IL up TO float it. The
Hammond Lumber Company, owners of
the piling are making strong efforts to
secure dredge TO IVORY under the raft
and remove the sand, hoping in that way
to get enough sand out of the way so
that the raft will slip into deep water.
Owing TO the fact that all the Portland
dredges have large contracts on hand
the efforts to secure one there has been
u failure, but the company still cher
ishes the hope that they may be able TO
secure a dredge from some other place.
II dredge is not secured it is prob.
able that no effort will be made to move
the raft until Sunday the Goth, at which
time the water will be higher than at
any other time during the month.
The estimated cost of putting the
logs into a raft is said to be six cents
per foot, 80 that il will be readily seen
that should the efforts TO move the
9.OO0,O00 feet fail, the loss to the com.
pany will he a heavy one.

HEATHER IS In PORT
Light Tender Reported in Quarantine
Passes Over Bar.

Tha lighthouse tender Heather arr
rived in over the bar at o'clock yes
terday morning, and Is tied up at the
kinney dock, where she will await or
ders. The tender left Seattle Fri
day noon, remaining at Port Angeles
over night, and left out for sea early
Saturday morning. Severe weather pre-
vailed during the passage up the straits,
but when the open sea was reached, the
storm had considerably abated.
Members Of the crew deny that any
steps toward quarantining the vessel
were taken at Seattle, for smallpox, or
that there were any eases OF the disease
aboard. The full complement Of officers
and men were in perfect health through
out the cruise, and they are unable to
understand the origin of the smallpox
story. '~e7
The Heather will undoubtedly be con-
siderably taxed. TO do the work Of this
district, now that the Manzanita is out
Of commission. The third tender, tas
Columbine, is engaged in work more in
connection with the engineering depart
ment. so that the bulk of the work Of
the district will now fall to the lot of
the Heather, unless other arrangements
are made.

War of TWO Recas.

The Exchange Telegraph company
received a dispatch from ST. Peters
burg, which says that the whole of
the Caucasus has become involved in
a desperate struggle between Ar1en-
ians and Tartars The latter are
openly surported by the police and
severe fighting has occurred at several
places. At Baku, where fighting has
been in progress Internationally since
September 2, the casualties are said
to reach into the hundreds. AtBaku
the troops have frequently been made
the victims OF attacks by Armenian
employees OF the Street railroad, ac-
coroiag to their reports which have

throughout the district where the
trouble has occurred are inactive.
