sHarbor Commission Meets
! The harbor commissioners met yes
terday morning in the ferry depot and
disposed of such routine business as
had accumulated since the previous
weekly meeting. Informal bids were
considered for WhiteWa shing the shed
on Jackson street pier, and the contract
was awarded to p. j. Buckley. who will
do the work. giving the shed interior
two coats. for $677.50.
If the board acts on the recommen-
dation of Engineer Ralph Barker the
request of r. p. Schwerin that two
freight slips be cut into the north side
of pier 40 TO facilitate handling inward
freight from the steamers Bear and
Beaver. will probably be denied Bar
ker estimates the cost of cutting the
slips at $1,000 apiece G. L. Blair,
agent for the Hartman Portland line,
gave Barker to understand. he said,
40 was likely to be given up in the
near future, and in view Of this Bar
ker deems il inadvisable to make any
expensive expensive. changes; p A J. Frey, who
latter's absence, said yesterday that
either Blair or Barker must have made
mistake, and that far from having
any intention of surrendering its as
signment the San Francisco and Port
land company expected to keep pier 40
buster than ever, particularly if the
harbor commission provided the facili-
ties that would enable them to handle
freight eXpeditiousiy.
The board has assigned to the Por-
tola fishing company the bulkhead space
and shed thereon between Broadway
street wharf No. and Vallejo street.
The berth space will be used by the
steamer trawlers Ammo and Blanco. The
company's rental was fixed at SIS a
