BUSY DAY AT CUSTOM HOUSE
Currents at Mouth Of Willamette River
Are Responsible For collision--British
Bark Conway Castle in After Long
voyage--pilot In For Supplies

Various reports were received here
yesterday afternoon concerning the col
lision OF the City Of Panama and the
Alliance ut the mouth Of the Willamette
river yesterday morning. One Of the
most experienced pilots and masters on
the river said last night that the acci-
dent was due entirely to the fact that
the drcdge Portland Is anchored in such
position that upstream vessels can
not enter the Willamette river proper
~ and avoid the shoals which are near
TO the lighthouse. The lack water In
the Willamette coupled with the cur
rent in the main portion Of the stream
shears the steamers dilectly over TO
these shoals by reason OF the sharp turn
which IL needed TO get around the dredge
Portland. This was 20 in the case OF
the Alliance. When the City Of Panama
arrived up and attempted to round the
dredge the current caught her BOWS The
speed Of the vessel was so great that
the accident could not be avoided To
Fsiop the engines would only have made
II worse. The current threw the bow Of
the City Of Panama directly aft Of the
starboard quarter OF the Alliance and
ripped big hole in her The Alliance
had already ran aground in the same
manncf
The river men assert that II Is easy
for the dredge TO get out of the channel
and the inspectors should insist that this
be done. Both the City OF Panama and
the Alliance were bound for Portland
when the accident occurred. The AL
lance had Pilot Turner on board while
the City Of Panama was under the di-
reetion Of Pilot Snow.
