J 12 TlTE MORNING OltEGOXIAN, SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 190C. I WILL BE HERE NEXT WEEK Matson Liner Arrives at San Francisco From Honolulu for Portland. BRINGS BAY CITY FREIGHT Big Steamer Will Pick Vp Heavy Cargo for This City Business Here Good for Out , ward Voyage. The steamship Hilonian, of the Matson Navigation Company's line of vessels ply Ins between the Pacific Coast and Ha waiian ports, has completed her first round trip to and from the islands since Portland has been made a port of call for the steamers. Agent LlndHcy. of the Matson Line, was yesterday advised of the Hilonian's ar rival at San Francisco. His advices also contained the statement that the vessel would not sail for Portland until the lat ter part of next week, owing to the large amount of freight she is to bring to Port land from San Francisco In addition to the Islands shipments. Some few days ago the local merchants doing business with the San Francisco trade were noti fied that there would be freight space on the Hilonian on the voyage to this city, and as the present shipping conditions are so congested that it is hardly possible to arrange for transportation by the wa ter route with any degree of certainty, the Portland merchants Immediately wired their San Francisco agents to ship any freight they might have by the Mat son liner. According to Agent IJndsey, the vessel will have practically a capacity cargo on her arrival here, for fihe is bringing a fair cargo, consisting mostly of sugar, to this port from the islands, and with the local freight she will pick up at San Francisco her hatches will be comfortably filled. On the outward trip the vessel will have much more freight than was secured for her on her first visit. Already shippers have engaged space for 500 tons of gen eral freight, consisting of dry goods, groceries, flour and lumber, and In addi tion a representative of a Hawaiian con cern Is in the Willamette Valley buying a number of horses for shipment by this steamer. This man has notified the local agent that the exact number of horses secured woud be stated about the first of the week In order to permit of the agent ar ranging for the building of stalls for their accommodation during the sea voy age. At least 25 fine horses will be shipped by the vessel this trip, and it Is expected that a larger number will be sent by the next boat Agent Llndsey is highly pleased with the way the Portland merchants have taken up the establishment of trade re lations with the islands and predicts that when the visit of W. A. Mear3 commences to bear fruit, one line of steamers will be unable to handle the business. GOVERNMENT LEASES DREDGE Columbia to Be Operated In Clean ing Channel to the Sea. The Port of Portland dredge Columbia has been leased by the United States en gineers for the purpose of completing the work of dredging out the channel of the Columbia River between Portland and the sea. The Government charters the dredge at $250 per day, which is $15 over the sum paid last year for the use of the craft. The commission also ac cepted the bid of the Banfield-Veysey Fuel Company for the supplying of fuel to the dredges and tenders, and the con tract was awarded this firm, which agrees to furnish all the fuel necessary at 1S76.25 per month. Last year the price paid was $2700 per month. A protest from Taylor, Young & Co. was read before the commission, which complained of the occupancy of the dry dock by the steamer Elder, which is be ing repaired on the dock to the exclus ion of all other craft. The protest cited the case of the British steamship Beck enham, which was beached at Astoria because the dock was in use. The com missioners stated that the owners of the Elder would be required to pay regular rates for the entire period the vessel has occupied a berth there. BIG CARGO 1'OR NTJMANTIA Largest Shipment of the Season Waits the Oriental Liner. When the Portland & Asiatic liner Nu mantia arrives from Hong Kong and other Chinese and Japanese ports-next week, she will find awaiting her the largest cargo of the season for the out ward voyage. This vessel will carry the first full cargo since the height of last year's-season, and this will consist principally of flour, of which ther are some 65,000 bar rels. In addition, there is between 400,000 and 600,000 feet of lumber to go by the Numantla, and also several other Items of lesser Importance. The flour shipment is a portion of the consignment that was not ready for ship ment on the sailing date of the Nlco media, and was prepared for her sister ship, which Is due about next Wednesday. LAUNCHES IX COLLISION. Craft AVithout Lights Is Struck by the Kover and Sustains Damage. The launch Rover, which operates as a ferry for passengers between St. Johns and the West Side of the river, was In collision with a small pleasure launch off Unnton Thursday evening, which came near resulting in some casualties. The Rover struck the smaller craft amid ships, and threw the eight or 10 passen gers Into a temporary panic, but fortun ately the captains and crews of the two launches kept cool and all were safely transferred to the Rover and brought to Portland early yesterday morning. The launch with the pleasure party aboard Is said to have been without lights.' and the party of pleasure seekers Immediately struck up a bargain with the commander of the Rover so their evening was not Interrupted. PURSER BAKER LEAVES. Topular Officer of Steamer Alliance Accepts Another Berth. Purser William A. Baker, the genial and accommodating custodian of the wel fare of the passengers of the California & Oregon Coast Steamship Company's liner Alliance during the past year, has resigned from that company to take a similar position with the Elmore line of steamers plying between Astoria and Coast ports. The departure of Purser Baker from the service of the California & Oregon lull Coast Company is a source of regret to ,the management of the company, which appreciated the services of this official In the highest degree, and Agent F. P. Baumgartner gave the young man a glowing tribute as a token of apprecia tion for faithful service while in the employ of this company. Purser Baker takes the new position for the reason that the new line which operates between Astoria and Tillamook will permit of him spending more time with his family than does the route cov ered by the Alliance.

The Beavers made It four straight today In a game that was remarkable for strike-outs and the fact that any team could make six runs off Wolters in one inning. Fresno batted Essick for 10 hits, but he came back at them with 12 strike-outs, and while Fresno made almost double the hits off Port land, the Beavers won through the aid of that first round. McHale and Sweeney were passed. Then Mitchell tried to sacrifice and all three men were safe on the fielder's choice to third base. Wolters forced In McHale with a pass to McCredie and then Smith forced Sweeney at the plate on a grounder to Casey. Moore scored Mitchell with a swipe to left and then with bases full Donahue hit a fly to the left fence and the ball bounded over for a homer. Two more runs resulted In the sev enth on two singles, a wild pitch, a steal and an error by Whaling. Fresno got its first run on Delmas' single, Wolters' double and Aogan's out, and the second on three singles and a fielder's choice. Mike Fisher today signed Bob Whal ing, local amateur, as a first baseman. He promises to make good. PORTLAND.

HARVARD OARSMEN WEIGH IN i Coach Says Cambridge Has Big Handful to Tackle. BOURNE END. England, Aug. 10. When the Harvard rowers weighed In this morning It was found that John Richardson, Jr., Robert L Bacon and Daniel Newhall had Increased In weight. The weights of the crew are as follows: Robert M. Tappan, 168; Sidney Fish. 165; Flint, 175; Gordon G. Glass, 1S6; John Richardson, Jr., 185; Robert L Bacon, 185; Daniel Newhall. 181; Oliver D. Fil ley, 163; Francis M. Blagden, coxswain, 105. There is some diversity of opinion as to who should row bow in the Cambridge crew and It is the general impression that ther are one or two weak spots In the English boat. With a little further training. Coach Muttlebur doubtless will pull his men together. It has been suggested that the Harvard men might try one of the English boats. It is thought that . the "drag" on their boat Is due to its being shorter, deeper and lower in the water than the English type. The interest In the work of both crews is now great and will Increase when they go to Putney, as the weeds In the river are a detriment to clean and fast rowing. Coach Muttlebur, while di-.dent in giv ing his opinion of the relative merits of the two crews, imparted the impres sion in the course of a conversation today that he thought that the Cambridge men had a big handful to tackle. Owing to the shortness of the stay of the Harvard crew, the captain today In a telegram formally declined the Invita tion to race with the Bann Rowing Club of Ireland. SWIMMER ACCEPTS CHALLENGE J. J. Byrnes Anxious lor Match With J. L. Henderson. John Leland Henderson, of Hood River, has found a taker In his challenge to swim any man "from Oregon City to the island first below Portland." J. J. Byrnes, a young man about 20 yeasr of age, who Is employed at The Oaks and who is strictly an amateur, is . very anx ious to arrange a match with Mr. Henderson. He will swim on the terms suggested by the Hood River man, via., to make the race straight away and with out any outside help. Mr. Henderson sent In an open chal lenge to The Oregonlan some time ago, and he mentioned several courses of great length over which he said he would be willing to swim. Byrnes does not want to swim any place except in the Willamette River, because he Is used to Its waters, but since one of the courses designated in Mr. Henderson's challenge is from Oregon City to the island below Portland, any difficulty about the course is thereby re moved. Mr. Byrnes Is willing to go the Hood River man one better. He. will swim from Oregon City to the mouth of the Willamette, he says. Byrnes has made good records In the harbor. Recently he swam from The Oaks to Madison-street bridge, a meas ured course of 34 miles, in 1 hour and 50 minutes, without the least exertion. He is confident of his ability to defeat Hen derson, although the latter has a long record of victories to his credit. Any terms of the race may be arranged through The Oregonian or Allen T. An derson, The Oaks. Pugilist Must Support Wife. LONDON, Aug. 10. Thomas Palmer, who Is known as Peddler Palmer, the lightweight champion pugilist, appeared In court yesterday on a summons by his wne, alleging that he had deserted her. She applied for a maintenance order. "He always had plenty of money," re marked Mrs. Palmer. "He would give me $2500 or $3000 at a time, and it would be banked to draw on when we liked. He sent home lets of money on his American tour, but it's all gone now." "Yes, I have deserted her," said Palm er. "We had our luxuries and enjoyed life, and now that we have come to hard times we have our little squabbles." He was ordered to pay her J5 a week. Figure Eight Has Inning. The figure 8 had Its inning In the Pa cific Coast League yesterday. It chased Fresno, San Francisco and Seattle all down the percentage column a peg and boosted their opponents up one.

' -juiimiiiitUiiiuJii.iiiijiiiiiiif.-li mm GOING Hermann Gets Decision in Ten-Round Contest. SENDS HIS MAN TO ROPES California Boy Fights Hard and Cleverly, but Is Worn Out by Chicagoan's Continual Pounding of Ribs. INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Aug. 10. Kid Hermann, of Chicago, was given the decision over Benny Yanger in a glove contest tonight at the end of the tenth round before 3500 people at the base ball park. The conditions of the match were tea rounds, one arm free In clinches. Both men were under the 133 pounds weight. Hermann continued Infighting: tac tics throughout the contest. Frequent clinches and hard hitting characterized the bout. Yanger, though fighting hard, was sent to the ropes in several rounds and the decision of Referee Abe Pollok won favor. Hermann was a 1 to 2 favorite in the betting. Hermann forced the fighting in the first and second rounds, getting close to his man and hammering at the ribs. Honors were even In the third, which was characterized by hard, fast fight ing by both men. In the fourth, how ever, two hard left hooks to the head shook Yanger considerably. Both men were swinging wildly when the bell rang. Yanger fought cautiously in the fifth round and In the sixth forced the fighting, reaching Hermann with left and right on the body and again with his right to the ribs. He fully held his own in the seventh, which was full of hard fighting, but in the eighth Hermann's continual pounding of Tan ker's ribs began to have its effect and the little Callfornlan slowed down. Yanger fought hard in the ninth and tenth, but In the latter round received a hard left to the chin that sent him to the ropes. The men were fighting hard at close quarters when time was called.
