THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY. JULY 24, 1906. SECOND ORIENTAL LINER IN PORT Nicomedia Comes With Large Cargo From China . and Japan. SULPHUR FOR HOP HARVEST Third Officer of Ilner Is Protege of Prince Henry of Prussia and Presented Royal Personage With Valuable Relic Tho Portland end Asiatic' Steamship Company's liner Nicomedia, the sister ship of the Aragonia, now in the harbor, arrived up yesterday morning and berthed at Montgomery Dock No. L She brings one of the largest cargoes from the Orient that has been brought here in the last year or so, which comprises something like 6000 tons of general mer chandise from China and Japan. The big liner came over in command of Captain Meisner, who was in charge of the ship temporarily, owing to an acci dent to her regular commander. Captain Wageman, who has recovered from his Incapacity and assumed charge of the vessel on her arrival. Captain Meisner leaves this city overland for New York, where he will take passage for Germany and assume command of one of the other large liners owned by the company con trolling the Nicomedia and Aragonia. Bern hard Schriber, Third Officer of the Nicomedia, has the distinction of being a protege of the German Prince Henry of Prussia, who took an interest in the young man when he was an apprentice, and assisted him in acquiring a course on the German schoolship Moitke. Third Officer Schriber has a souvenir given him by the prince which he prizes very highly. He was also in possession of a relic that descended to him from his grandparents which was left with his grandmother fcy Princess Louise In 1807 during the Napoleonic wars, and which is one of the family heirlooms. This lat ter was a heavy gold watch, studded with diamonds, and when the young man met Prince Henry, he presented the relic to his highness, which so pleased the royal personage that he took the young man under his wing immediately and fur thered his advancement in the way of securing a suitable training for the pro fession he had chosen. The Nicomedia's cargo consist prin cipally of 2000 tons of sulphur, which is consigned to local merchants and is to be used mostly in the coming . hop har vest. No haste will be used in unload ing the Nicomedia, as she is not sched uled to leave until the middle of Aug ust. The steamship Aragonia, of the same Una, has practically finished loading her outward cargo and will leave down early tomorrow morning. She is going light on this voyage, for her -cargo practically consists of 600,000 feet of lumber and about 20,000 barrels of flour, which is consigned to Yokohoma and Hong Hong. POTTER OFF SEASIDE HUX. O. R. & N. Steamer May Be Tied Up Rest of Season. Officials of the O. R. N. &. passenger department state that the steamer T. J. Potter will probably not be returned to the beach run this season. The accident of a few days ago was of such a serious nature that repairs will occupy four weeks at least and by that time the beach season will be drawing to a close and it is thought hardly worth while to put the steamer back on her run. The withdrawal of the Potter from ser vice because of the accident to her ma chinery is regarded as very unfortunate in view of the fact that the beach travel over the O. R. & N. lines was the heaviest of any year outside of the Fair year yet experienced. During the month of August, which Is considered the best period of the year for beach travel, even heavier traffic was expected. However, arrangements have been made which will afford regular service that will fall but little short of that offered by the Potter. While the Hassalo will operate as formerly on her regular sched ule, it Is expected she will get much of the Potter business, while the Lurllne will also accommodate people bound beachward. Tickets are good on either these boats or the Astoria & Columbia River trains, while special arrangements have been made for extra tugs at As toria to meet the trains and take pas sengers across to Ilwaco. The special Saturday afternoon and evening trains will be met by the boats and connections will be made with other A. & C. trains as well. RAFT AT SAX FRAXCISCO. Steamer Francis II. Iieggett Arrives W ith Big Tow. SAN FRANCISCO. July 23. The steam. er Francis H. Leggett arrived today from the Columbia River with an Immense log raft in tow. The raft contains about $.000,000 feet of lumber, and is made up entirely of piles. It is one of the largest ever towed down the coast, but the voy age was made in six days and without mishap. Chained into - a cigar-shaped cradle the logs made a raft 735 feet long. 65 feet in beam and 22 feet deep. In the big rait are plies of all sorts and sizes. and the work of breaking it up In Mis sion Bay and - distributing the big sticks will be begun without delay. After anchoring the raft In Mission Bay the Francis . H. Leggett, herself loaded with lumber and shingles for San Pedro, sailed for the Southern port. BEACHED NEAR ASTORIA. Big Steamship Will Be Cleaned on Sands Instead of Drydock. ASTORIA. Or., July 23. (Special.) The British steamship Beckenham, which ar rived this morning from San Francisco, via Royal Roads, was run on the sands opposite the city at high tide this after noon to have her bottom cleaned and painted. The vessel luis been In Asiatic waters for years, and her bottom is so foul with barnacles that her speed is re duced to about six knots. XEVADAX SAILS TODAY'. Hawaiian Liner-Takes 800 Tons of Outward Cargo From Portland. The American-Hawaiian Steamship Company's liner Nevadan, which is on her first visit to Portland, will leave today lor Seattle and Puget Sound points on the way to Honolulu. The vessel takes In the neighborhood of 800 tons of freight from Portland to - the islands, and this is looked upon as encouraging to the promoters of the line, for the reason that the enterprise is practically new, and the vessel was ordered to call here on very short no tice. . . . Rha will bo followed In aDOUl two weeks by the Nebraskan, of the same line, and this vessel will also call at Seattle en route to the islands. Sailors Taken Off the Fulton. TTTT-, narvt .Tulv 23. While DAfl i - bound to sea today the steam schooner Fulton was met off Black Point by the picket boat of the Bailors uuiuu, .i i. ,,, th Fulton's non-union crew went over the side Into the launch. leaving the schooner neipiess ui ornuu.. her voyage. She returned for another crew. ' While her men were leaving ner uio officers are reported to have played a hose upon them and upon the union men In the launch- Marine Notes. Tho steamer Aurelia arrived in the har bor late last night, and will commence loading lumber for San Francisco this morning. The steamer Cascade arrived at linn- ton yesterday morning. She came up light and will load a cargo of lumber for the return trip to the Bay City. The steamer Alliance is due to arrive here from Coos Bay and other Coast ports today. 6he brings a full passenger list and all the freight her capacity al lows. The schooners W. F. Jewett and Car rier Dove arrived at Astoria yesterday. Both vessels come to load lumber, and their cargoes will be loaded at the mills down the river. The new oroDeller Kitsap, which left Astoria Sunday morning for Puget Sound, arrived at Seattle yesterday after a fast run up the Coast, which was quite flat tering to her builders. The British steamer Richmond will sail this morning for Taku and other Chi nese ports. She carries over 3,000,000 feet of lumber, which is one of the , largest shipments this year. The British steamer Beckenham ar rived at Astoria yesterday morning. She will be beached on Sand Island ' and cleaned before coming to Portland to' load lumber for J. J. Moore & Company. Owing to the employment of a nonunion crew on the steamer Homer, which Is to sail for the Prtbiloff islands this week, a couple of police officers were detailed to watch the vessel in anticipation or trouble with the unions, but none ma terialized. KITSAP REACHES SEATTLE STEAMER HAS SUCCESSFUL VOYAGE TO SOUND. Will Be Placed on Ran Between Seattle and Tacoma Within the Next Three Days. SEATTLE, Wash., July 23. (Special.) The steamer Kitsap, built in Portland for the Kitsap County Transportation Company, reached Seattle this morning, and within three days will be sent out on a new run in command of Captain H. A. Hansen. The boat will probably ply between Seattle and Tacoma, taking the west passage, and making a few stops en route. Despite the fact that the Kitsap ran into a little nasty weather off the Co lumbia River and en route up the coast. she behaved splendidly. The boat was not boarded up for the run, but she cam through the Straits with her decks as dry as when she left Portland. An average of 14 miles an hour was made by the Kitsap on the run up the coast. The Kitsap's engines behaved splendidly, and there was manifestly none of the stiffness that is sometimes shown in new machinery. The Kitsap was welcomed Into the har bor by all the boats In port. They whistled a greeting to her that lasted until she tied up at her dock. President W. L. Gazzam. of the Kitsap County Transportation Company, went out In the Reliance with a party of officials and friends, to meet the Kitsap at West Point Captain J. J. Reynolds brought the Kitsap around from Portland. Aboard her were Joseph Supple, her builder; Mrs. Supple and Mr. and Mrs. Willis, of Port land. Arrivals and Departures. ASTORIA, Or.. July 23.

Dr. Morrison Deserves Credit. ' SEASIDE. Or., July 23. (To the Editor.) In view of the fact that the letter of B. A Chllders, dated July 21 and published in The Oregonlan July 22, gives Harry. Knetzer as the rescuer of Leah Cohen from drowning last week after the Rev. A. A. Morrison had been so credited, we, the underslgnedr who witnessed the episode, deslr to make a cor rect statement of the affair. When the drowning child was first ob served. Dr. Morrison was in the surf and Harry Knetzer was upon the shore. To the credit of Mr. Knetzer, he was willing to do all he could, but Mr. Morrison was the nearer, and, wading out, reached the little child as he was losing consciousness. A large wave engulfed them both, throwing them nearer to the shore, and then, after taking several steps, Mr. Knetzer and Dr. Johnson, who was also in bathing, assisted In bringing the child ashore. Since then on several occasions Mr. Knetzer has seen fit to announce himself as the "man who saved the girl." whereas he was at least 20 feet away at the time Dr. Morrison reached her, and no additional help was needed, as none of them, with the exception of the girl, was beyond his depth.

GROWERS OF HOPS ARE CHEERFUL Looking Forward to Better Prices Than Prevailed . Last Year. MARKET IN GOOD SHAPE Bountiful Harvests Are Assured on the Pacific Coast, While Condi tions Abroad Warrant High er Values This Season. The, hon market promises to be an Interesting affair this season. No one can tell now whether prices will go sky ward oi. remain near the present level. but whatever course the market takes, there are pretty certain to oe enougu developments to keep up the Interest. No one looks for any recession from the values now ruling, nor are very high prices predicted by even the most op timistic; yet there is a feeling of cheer fulness in all Quarters, and a profitable return for his labors seems to be as sured to the grower. Oregon's hop harvest is practically fo The vield will be a record one, and tke quality superior. The same good fortune will be the lot ot producers in Washington and California. In Europe, on the other hand, conditions are not good. England will not raise much over half an average crop, and the conti nental European districts do not give flattering prospects, it is mis iaie ui woe from the other side that is forcing the market upward. The Pacific Coast growers whether or not they will sym Dathlze with the distress of foreign plant ers, must r.t least profit by their mis fortune. The mart er at the present moment Is Arm enough to suit anyone. Up to the close of last week, 12ft cents was the too mark for actual business, though 14 cents was offered in some sections to growers who would not sell. Yesterday a bona fide deal at 13 cents was made. thus establishing the market at this nrice. The purchaser was Krebs Bros., of Salem, and the seller the Hung Chang Yon Company, which has a yard at In dependence. The contract calls for 60,000 pounds. It was reported that other 13 cent transactions took place up the Val ley, but the particulars could not be learned. Three large firms, it Is said, are taking options on hops at 14 and 15 cents, but no one appears to know wheth er they are sincere or merely trying to block the buying of other dealers. So far as deals that have been closed are concerned, 13 cents is the top price paid. These transactions are all In 1908 hops. yet to be picked. The market for spot goods is not attracting mucn attenuon, as supplies are at a very low ebb in this state, yet the demand for last year's hops is by no means dead. The sale of a 100-bale lot of 1906's, owned by G. B. Hovenden, of this city, to Julius Pincus, of Salem, at 11 cents, was reported yes terday. Krebs also sold a small lot of 1905 rejections at 11 cents, and 12 cents was offered for a choice lot at Salem. Hops of the 1904 growth are In good re quest at 9i4 cents, but it is almost im possible to get any. A good many of last year's hops re main In the hands of heavy speculators, and It is observed that these men are well In the front rank of the bull ele ment now. The presence of the longs In the market, of course, is to the liking of the growers. The man that is raising hops cannot have too many friends in the trade. Last year the shorts were in full swing, and everybody connected with the growing of hops had to pay tribute to them. This year the shorts are conspic uous by their absence, or at least by their silence, which is taken as pretty good reason that they have covered their requirements and only want to see tne market advance now. Even if the longs have entered on a bull campaign for the sole purpose of unloading their holdings, their tactics are causing no uneasiness. as the statistical position of the market is, to all appearances, favorable. The latest news from abroad does not show much change from conditions at this time last week. Estimates of the English crop run from 300,009 to 350,000 cwt Last year England had one of the best crops In her history, 695,943 cwt., and two years ago one of tne worst, 282,330 cwt. Last year - there was a 10-cent market here and two years ago a 30-cent one. This year, with the same crop as in 1904, there may not, how ever, be 1904 prices. A German cable says the crops there are backward and vermin Is increasing, notwithstanding re peated spraying. A well-known New York hopman, Paul R. G. Horst, expressed his views In a letter to a Cooperstown, N. Y., dealer, which a paper of that town prints, as follows: " "I have Just returned from Europe and spent some time on the hop farms on the Continent and especially In England. The crop prospects in England and on the Con tinent are very bad. Vermin everyhere and crop backward everywhere. Of course there is lots of time for improvement, but I do not believe it possible with the best weather conditions to grow more than average crops, and with poor weather crops may be very small. There are prac tically no hops left In growers' hands in England, and very few in dealers' hands. Yesterday's quotation on Pacific hops in the Condon market was 70 to 80 shillings, which is equivalent to 11 to 13 cents here. The weather in England yesterday was hot and overcast, anything but good for the hopyards. Not only are the gnowers of Oregon pleased with the prospects, but the thou sands of people who annually visit the hopflelds at picking time are going to share in the better times. "This Is going to be the greatest har vest for pickers that Oregon has ever seen," said Conrad Krebs, of Salem, who was at the Belvedere Hotel yesterday. "There is not much foliage, plenty of arms and blossoms, and In addition a high price for picking, 50 cents a box, or 31 a hundred. Pickers can easily average 32.50 a day. We have never seen finer hops: that is, a finer growth of vine than on our large Independence yard. It is gratifying to know that the hopgrowera of Oregon will distribute 31,600,000 in har vesting the crop this year. A most fortu nate fact is that the market price will be fairly remunerative, so growers as well as pickers will beenfit by the bountiful narvest. - HIGH PRICES OFFERED. Fourteen and Fifteen Cents Said to Have Been Quoted in Salem. SAT .EM. July 23. (Special.) It is de clared by hop dealers who know that there are many orders here for hoo con tracts at 14 cents, and that figure has been offered. There are unconfirmed re ports that 16 cents has been offered. The Oregon Hopgrowers' Association. organized last Fall for the purpose of maintaining an Information bureau for the oenefit of growers, is apparently dead and will take no part in directing, aiding or influencing the marketing of this year's crop. s tar as now appears, it will not even act as purchasing agent for the growers in securing supplies at reduced prices, but growers will be left to buy from dealers individually, as they have In the past- An effort was made recently to call a meeting of the directors, but noth ing came of it and probably the organi zation has become defunct. CRASH IS COMING IN CHINA Foreigners in the Interior Pnt the Date at Nine Tears Hence. PEKIN, June 20. (Correspondence of Associated Press.) China is a volcano. Just now one sees a puff of smoke here and there; but some day there will be an explosion; then, again, some day the volcano will be explosive no longer. Close observers are not in Pekin, because Pekln. Is not the place to get real news con cerning China, but foreigners long resi dent in the interior, in Shantung and Chill, put the explosion nine years hence. Educated Chinese bring it nearer. For the present, however, the American in China is as secure as he would be in his own home in the United States. Financial interests may or may not he threatened. If they are, they have them selves' and the politicians to blame, but it is well understood in official and other circles that it Is useless at least to kill foreigners. There is a general running after foreign things and foreign ways. Men having foreign training are In de mand. These same men had to run for their lives at the Boxer times. At the same time there is anxiety to shake off foreign control of everything partly from a new feeling of national pride and part ly from a desire to keep the good things for themselves. Misgivings for the fu ture are based on fear of an antl-dynastic rising, probably on the part of radicals this would become partly anti-foreign and would In any case mean anarchy. Also there is the typical coast trader who knows nothing of and therefore de spises the Chinese and admits no equality anywhere. These cause local friction and are objectionable In themselves. It is consequently in the ports that foreigners are disliked, bringing It on themselves. There are a great many "armies in China, but the only one that counts is Yuan Shi Kal's "northern army." The Chinese are . raising big horses somewhere in Mongolia for the ultimate use of the army, and hope to remount their cavalry in about four years. The Chinese soldiers will blaze away blank cartridges in fine style, but they are not trained to shoot. Target practice is rare. It is also very doubtful If the men would follow their officers except to the rear, and it is doubtful if the officers would go anywhere else. At present the army is an Immense advance on the, old thing. If they can get good officers and make the men be lieve them good and teach the infantry to shoot, the Chinese army would go far. But army reform ultimately rests on civil reform. 'The American boycott" never seriously affected the interior. A few items of United States imports came into the in terior In small quantities. It was a ques tion for the ports, particularly those In the south. The Shanghai riots were pure ly local, and magnified by Shanghai hys teria. A serious question is the educa tional one, which gives rise to the "Young China" movement. This is founded on conceit, the basis of Chinese - student character. They are about one-quarter educated, and think their education is complete. The real trouble is that China wants to do things much too fast, but should this tendency subside there need be no more trouble at all. Certainly there is none just now. L0NGW0RTHSG0 IN DITCH Mishap With Automobile in Ger many, but No Injury. WTJERZBERG, Bavaria, July 23. Con gressman Nicholas Liongworth and Mrs. Longworth were thrown out of their auto mobile yesterday, but beyond the jolt and a bruise or two they sustained no injuries. and reached their destination, Bayreuth, today in time for the opening of the opera. The Longworths had passed through Wuerzberg yesterday morning. and when a short distance out of the town the steering gear of their car re fused to work, and the automobile, which was going at a rapid rate, careened off the road and fell down a short embank ment into a ditch. The chauffeur, after a short wait, obtained a carriage, in which they returned here and took a train for Bayreuth. Car Conductor's Neck Broken. CHICAGO, July 23. The neck of John Petrie, 35 years old, a conductor on a South Chicago trolley car, was broken last night by another car, and his death was instantaneous. The car of which Petrie was In charge had reached One Hundred and Fifth street when six boys "flipped" on the blind side, Petrie shout ed to them to leave the car, but they saw a car from Hammond approaching and clung close to avoid being struck by it- Petrie apparently did not observe the approach of the second car, and as he leaned far out from the rear platform, shouting to the boys, his head was struck by a rod on the front platform of the Hammond car and his neck broken in two places.

Mtaa Hathaway aays TVee fills Saved Her Ufa and She Recommends y Them to Others Doctors have given the Greek name Antenna, meaning "bloodlessness," to a disease which is much more prevalent among young women than is generally believed. An unusual feeling of fatigue after slight exercise, breathlesaness and pallor are the first notioeable signs. The disease literally causes the blood to turn to water and, unless a proper remedy is used, is inevitably fatal. Miss Frankie Hathaway, of SU West Main street, Kalamazoo, Mich., sayi "When I was sixteen years old I was taken quite ill, so ill that the family doc tor was caljed to attend me. I was pale and weak and did not gain under his care. Other treatment brought no bet ter result and by the time I was nineteen years old I was so weak that I could not walk across the floor. I was terribly emaoiated and my skin had lost all color. The doctor said I had anaemia. " One of my friends advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as she had been cured of a somewhat similar trouble by their use. I bought a package and soon found that they were doing me good. My appetite increased and the healthy color began to show in my cheeks and tips. I continued to use the pills until I was permanently cured. " Since then I have never had 'any re- tarn of my old trouble and cannot re member a time when I was so strong and healthy as now. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved my life and I believe that no other medicine could have done so." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure anaemia )ust as food cures hunger. They do not act on the bowels bnt they actually make new blood. - Most common diseases are caused by bad blood and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills by supplying the elements necessary to give new life and richness to tne mood, nave cured even such dis eases as locomotor ataxia, partial par alysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neu ralgia, rheumatism, nervous headaches. the after-effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions and many forms of weakness in male and female.

Most Portland people work every day In some strained, unnatural position bending constantly over a desk rid ing on Jolting wagons or cars doing laborious housework; lifting, reaching or pulling, or trying the back in a hundred and one other ways. All these strains tend to wear, weaken and in jure the kidneys until they fall behind in their work of filtering the poisons from the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kidneys, put new strength in bad backs. Portland cures prove it. A. L. Maney, repairer on the Port land Cable Railway, and living at 654 Elm St.. Portland, Or., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills completely rid me of an attack of backache which was brought on through the Jarring and Jolting of riding on the cable cars.
