FIRST STEP TAKEN YESTERDAY
Messrs. Young and Kelcey Confer on the
Big Problem - Make Superficial
Review of Route - Many Apt
Suggestions Made.

Promptly at o'clock yesterday after
noon, in obedience to the call made by
Chairman Ross, Of the subcommittee OF
the Seawall conference, a group OF about
thirty.fve representative citizens gath
cred at the Chamber OF Commerce rooms
on Bond street, to meet. and confer with,
Colonel Willard Young and his partner.
F. c. Kelley, the civil engineers, Of
Portland. who were here upon the in
yitation of the subcommittee, to discuss
the preliminaries Of the big enterprise;
and after the introductions of the hour
has been made and the meeting settled
down to business. Chairman Ross asked
scope, Colonel Young showed he was not
the project, in a general way, and he
complied.
While, as was expected, he was nom
committal as to the extent and purposes
of the citizens here on this particular
score, Colonel Young showed he was not
without very tangible idea Of the
proposition and spoke to the point in
all he had TO say. He dealt largely with
the co-incidental interests of the Astoria
& Columbia River Railroad Company, in
the project and counselled plain under
standing between the city and the COM
pany as a prerequisite to the launching
of the work. If they were to work to-
gether for the accomplishment of the
improvement which was so essential to
both, a clear and definite understanding
was imperative; and none the less so
if the two parties in interest were to
act independently. Upon his conclusions
in the matter, and knowing the relative
importance of the seawall to both, he
advised that they operate together if pos
sible. This was the substance of his
initial talk on the subject; and he then
spoke in an indirect fashion, in answer
to series of questions pertinent to the
matter in hand, from which it was de.
duced that simply nothing definite nor
conclusive could be said of the scope,
cost and plans of the work, until some
working predicate had been laid, in some
way, by some one. that would be ac.
ceptable TO the citizens and its commit
| tee.
One thing he did say, and that was,
that when the new fill was in, it would
not be safe nor wise, to build building
of other material than wood, such as
brick, iron, or concrete, without going
to the old time-level with piling driven
for initial foundation and then raise
the real foundation upon bed; that only
a light wooden structure would remain
intact upon the new land.
The up.shot of the meeting was the
success of motion made by c. A. Cool
idge, that the subcommittee, together
with Messrs. Young and Kelley, go over
the proposed route Of the first section
of the seawall, from the Parker House
to the o. R. & N. PIERS and endeavor to
reach an estimate of the cost of plans
and specifications for the doing of the
work, either on basis of wooden bulk
head, or rock filling, or both, and that

meeting to be called by the chairman.

Water Commission Decides oI
Have Big Supply.
At Meeting Last Night Commission
Agrees That Big Reserve Sup
ply of Water is Necessary
For the City.

1t was definitely decided last evening
lat the meeting of the water commission
to construct the big reservoir to contain
10000, 900 gallons, and work toward this
end was started when o resolution intro
duced by Judge Trenchard. to call for
bids for the clearing Of the eleven acre
tract, was introduced and passed unani-
mously by all present, Bids for the pro-
posed excavation will be called for at a
later date.
The construction OF this big reservoir
was deemed necessary as the present
growth of the city will soon demand a
much larger amount of water than the
existing reservoirs can supply. Two years
will be necessary according to the engi'
neers figures to complete the new reser'
yoir.

cost of installing six-ineh main from

Lumber Company's mill would be $640
the distance being 5000 feet. The super
intendent was instructed to put in the
main providing the mill would agree to
pay SIS a month for the use of the
water.
A communication was received from
the park commission stating that the
road adjoining the water commissions
property was caving in, and that the
commission take some action in the
premises. The superintendent was there
upon instructed to attend to the mat
ter.

toria, asking for the installation of a
water main from the west end of Bond
street along Columbia avenue to its in
tersection with Alameda, and that as
soon as Alameda is completed to con-
tinue it to Ilwaco avenue. There were
twenty mine signatures to the petition
and the commission instructed the clerk
to inform the property owners that the
commission was favorable to the request
and would act as soon as the street was
improved.

SAN FRANCISCO. June S.-The long
series OF negotiation which preceded the
water front strike, seems be bar to
any compromise between the dissatisfied
sailors and the steamship owners. No
advance has been made on the part OF
either, and the situation remains the
same today as it has been since the out
set, except that it has been aggravated
in slight degree by some of the owners
who manner their vessels with non.union
crews.
