ACTIVE DAY ON
WATER FRONT
Three Steamers Arrive and
Two Sail for South With
Large Cargoes.
GOOD FREIGHT MOVEMENT
barracoota and Alliance Take All
They Can Carry, While Roanoke
and Kllburn Sail Thursday
With- Full Loads.
, Coastwise shipping waa quite active
yesterday, for it marked the departure ol
two veswlfl and the arrival of several
others. The vessels departing were ttia
steamers Barracouta and Alliance, the
former going direct to San Francisco and
the latter to Coos Bay jind Eureka.
The Barracouta received quicker dis
patch this trip than on her previous call,
lor she was in port just three days less
than on her former voyage.. This is proD
Bbly due to the protest of the local mer
chants, who are doing everything in their
power to have increased facilities fur
nished them in the matter of. serving
helr San Francisco customers.
The Barracouta took a full cargo of
general merchandise and some few pas
sengers' bound for San Francisco. She la
la larse carrier, but has few cabin ac
commodations and makes a specialty of
freight. The Costa Rica, of the same
line, arrived up at the Ainsworth dock
Un the morning and both vessels were
(moored there during the day. The Costa
Kica brought a general cargo, but as yet
'can take no passengers owing to the in
ability of her owners to satisfy the United
i States, inspectors at San Francisco of the
: competency of her crew. This is the sec
iond voyage for the vessel's crew, and
until they can pass muster with the
'officials at the home port of the vessel
ehe will not be permitted to list any
fpasengers between the two cities.
The officers of the Costa Rica state
'that just "as they were ready to sail the
, stevedores' strike was inaugurated at San
Francisco, but as their vessel was al
ready loaded they were not delayed.
Among the Items In the Costa Rica's
cargo were the two diving elk seen here
during the Lewis and Clark Fair last
Summer and which are being taken to
Spokane and other Washington points for
exhibition purposes. The elk behaved very
nicely on the trip up the coast and the
attendants experienced no trouble with
them on the entire trip. While being
taken off the steamer yesterday one of
them became a trifle fractious but was
soon subdued and led oft the vessel.
In addition to the departure of the
Barracouta the steamer Alliance, of the
California & Oregon Coast Steamship
Company left for coastwise ports. She
had a capacity cargo and about 90 pas
sengers. This vessel could have taken
double the cargo she has aboard, but as
her capacity was taxed to the utmost,
the additional freight had to be refused.
Most of this will probably be shipped by
the steamers Roanoke, which, arrived at
Astoria last evening, and the F. A. Kil
fcurn, which is due today. Both these
vessels are scheduled to sail Thursday
evening, and many passengers have al
ready secured booking for the Southern
ports.
In addition to the regular liners there
were a number of lumber carriers report
ed arriving at the lower harbor yester
day, among which is the British steam
ship Vermont, which comes to load lum
ber for the Orient. She will take on
1,000,000 feet of her cargo at Knappton
and will finish at Vancouver and Port
land. PROMOTION'S AT HOQTJIAM.
Ofifccrs of Gray's Harbor Shipping
Firm Receive Advancement.
HOQUIAM, Wash., Aug. 13. (Special.)
There is a general promotion among the
captains of the Northwestern Lumber
Company, since the tug Daring has been
put in commission. Captain Johnson
takes charge of this boat. Captain O.
Sanborn- advances to command of the
Traveler; Captain Erlckson leaves the
Rustler to Harry Hubble and takes charge
of the Printer. -
The sternwheel steamer Aberdeen, built
in this city for Spoon & Thompson, of
Aberdeen, by the Mathews Shipping Com.
jiany, was launched this evening. The
Aberdeen is equipped with a 60-horsepow-er
gasoline engine and will be used for
freighting on the Wishkah River.
The tug Daring leaves this morning for
Ban Francisco, having in tow the schoon
ers Watson A. West and the R. C. Slade,
laden with lumber. The Daring will bring
Iback two empty vessels. Owing to the
shortage of carrying equipment and lack
of vessels, manufacturers think much
time will be saved by this plan. It takes
a sailing vessel two or three weeks, on
an average, to make the trip, and the
Daring is expected to reach the city in
a week or ten days, and if successful this
plan will be adhered to.

GRAVESEND, England. Aug. 13. Nine
firemen of the steamer Minnetonka,
which arrived here today, were charged

SOME FAMOUS CHAIRS
Romance of Lucky Purchaser Who
Finds $20,000.
Cleveland Plalndealer.
The value of chairs is strictly relative.
Enormous prices have 'been paid for
chairs In recent years, notably J100.000
for a set of half a dozen Louis XIV
chairs, upholstered in Goeblln Tapestry,
which were originally made for Marie
Antoinette. Even his price, by he way
was exceeded by the sums paid for three
of the Hamilton palace tables, one of
which brought $30,000. A most valuable
and historically Interesting suite of fur
niture is that which more than a century
ago was presented by Warren Hastings
to TIppoo Sahib and was bought at the
Londesborough sale for 5000. The suite
consists of a card table, a sofa, two small
cabinets and four arm chairs, all of
solid ivory most exquisitely carvedL But
probably the most costly cnair in uie
world is one of the many treasures of
the Shah of Persia. It is of solid gold,
thickly incrusted with diamonds, rubies,
pearls and sapphires, and! its value is
estimated at J5OO.O00. In the House of
Commons at Westminster are two arm
chairs which once belonged to Gladstone,
and one of which was his favorite seat
when at Downing street.
A short time ago a romantlo story was
told in the French papers of two dilapi
dated armchairs which were sold among
the effects of Madame Borg, a widow.
who died at Dellys, an Algerian seaport
town. Tha widow was reputed to be rich
but a thorough search of her rooms failed
to disclose any of her hoardings, and it
was assumed by her relatives that she
had died practically penniless. Not long
after the sale of her furniture, however.
it was observed that the purchaser of the
chairs, a Spanish stevedore named Perez,
ceased to work, began to walk about
In tine clothes, to buy land and houses
and generally gave evidence of having
come into a fortune. Suspicion being
aroused, Perez was arrested, and now
stands accused of having appropriated to
hu own use the old lady's fortune f at
least $20,000. which had been concealed by
.her 'in the dilapidated armchairs.

GOES TO SEATTLE
H. E. Reed Chosen Director of
Exploitation of Fair.
SIGNS A 3-YEAR CONTRACT
Elaborate Plans TJnder Way for Ad
vertising Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Exposition, Which WrIH
Be Held in 1909.
Henry E. Reed, of Portland, received
word yesterday that he had been elected
director of exploitation for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Exposition, which is to be held
at Seattle in 1909. Ha will leave Thursday
to take up his work on the Sound, and
has accepted a contract to remain in his
new position until two months after the
coming Fair.
Mr. Reed is well qualified for the work
which he is to take up, having occupied
the position of director of exploitation
and secretary of the Lewis and Clark Ex
position. The great success achieved by
the publicity department of the Portland
Fair reflected much credit upon Mr. Reed,
and it has been understood for some time
E. REED.
that he would probably be selected to
take charge of the same work in Seattle.
The Seattle Exposition is to open June
15, 1909, and continue for four months.
The corporation has been organized with,
a capital of $500,000. Officers have been
elected and the directors are now taking
up the election of heads for the various
departments. Mr. Reed is the first of
these to be named, his election occurring
yesterday noon at a meeting of the ex
ecutive committee.
Mr. Reed will begin active work Imme
diately upon his arrival in Seattle. Lit
erature concerning the objects and scope
of the Exposition will immediately be is
sued and an extensive publicity campaign
waged continuously up to and during the
Fair. Mr. Reed will have entire charge
of all exploitation work connected with
the Exposition, and intends to carry it
on in the same elaborate way followed in
Portland.
DEJECTION OF PRUNES
CHANCES OF LOSS ARE WORRY
ING PACKERS.
Eastern Jobbers May Not Stand by
Their Early Purchases at
High Trices.
SALEM. Or., Auy. 13. (Special.) While
Oregon packers of prunes see little In the
present situation to encourage the growers to
believe that better prices may be had, they
vigorously deny that they are in any way
responsible for the low stage of the market.
They assert that supply and demand have
made the price and that they are paying the
growers all that the Eastern market will
permit and save a profit for themselves. They
declare that when Eastern Jobbers offer them
a basis price of lc they cannot offer the
growers to exceed IVic, for It takes at least
half a cent a pound to cover the cost of
packing. Interest on the money, insurance,
chances of rejection and fair profits on the
business. That the chances of rejection are
worrying the packers some Is very evident'
from remarks made by them. An Instance of
this will be seen In the. statements made by
W. C. Tlllson, of this city, whose view of the
situation la hereafter Quoted.
Any man who will think a moment will
understand why there la great danger of loss
from rejections thia year. Many Eastern job
bers have bought prunes a full cent a pound
above present quotations and could probably
purchase now at about of a cent below
their contract figures. This would mean $1500
on a five-car contract, and it would be quite
a temptation to a Jobber who had the prunes
on the sidetrack In Chicago with the packer
located on the Pacific Coast. If the buyer of
prunes on & 3-cent basis can find any excuse
for rejecting them be is likely to do It and
buy again on a 2-cent basis or less. The
jobber has the advantage of location In any
litigation that may result.
Speaking today of the discussion that has
been, going on concerning the prune situation,
Mr. Tillson, of the Arm of Tillson & Co.,
said:
There seems to be a mistaken Idea amontr
the growers of the Northwest that the present
low nricee of prunes are the .result of con
certed effort on the part of the packers to
depress values, out irora conversations wu n
the various handlers of these goods I am
satisfied that the reverse Is the case. There
Is probably no better posted class of merchants
in the world than the handlers of California
and Oregon products, as the experience gained
bv most of them has been at the ex Dense
of heavy financial loss, and so far as I have
been able to discover tnere are out lew mu
lionaires among; them.
The early prices named by a few of the
packers were baaed upon report received of
tne crops in ruivpe, vn-uiormi, tuiu. me iuixn-
west, and after a careful study of the con
sumption of prunes in the United States and
European countries. Unfortunately the prune
has been made the butt of board tng-houa
Jokes for years, and the wealthier class tseem
to consider it a fruit hardly worth noticing
tand prefer to pay exorbitant prices for other
varieties of dried and fancy fruits that they
fret out of season to eating the more healthful
Pacific Coast dried prunes. As a consequence
the ear'y galea at fair prices to the packer
and remunerative ones to the pf rower were
for only a small proportion of the output of
the coast, and the repeated offerings at lower
prices were based upon crop statistics and
probable consumption.
The growers were not obliged to accept these
offers, as the packers did not confirm them
to the buyers until after they were able to
secure confirmation from the growers, and It
Is generally believed that the acceptance or
these orders was based upon good judgment,
as the continued decline in the market has
shown.
The normal consumption of prunes in the
United States is 70.000,000 to 80.000.000 pounds
against an estimated production this year?i
200,000.000 pounds in California and 40,000.000
in the Northwest; so that, without the extra
effort that had been and is still being made
by the packers to dispose of this surplus, the
growers face a large carryover of the fruit.
By constantly drumming their representatives
they axe securing offers which, as previously
stated, it Is optional with the growers to
accept or decline, but so far as can be learned
Italian prunes, even on a basis of the selling
prices, are a .fairly remunerative crop. It must
not be forgotten that the average size of the
prunes produced in Oregon and Washington
is about two points larger than the average
of the California stock, so that the growers
are getting $20 per ton more for the average
crop than does the grower In our sister state.
From the best information obtainable I be
lieve that possibly 50 per cent of the crops
of coast prunes have been sold, and unless
Europe comes in for more business than Is
at present anticipated, we are facing a large
carryover. One thing must not be lost sight
of what the packer has to face In these con
tinual declines In prices. Having sold prunes
at a relatively high figure, the danger to him
of a rejection from unscrupulous buyers is
great, and a stable, fairly uniform price would
be far preferable to all parties concerned.
But with conditions as they are. they shouid
be encouraged to in every way And an outlet
for our surplus stock in a year like this, when,
crops are so larse.
That the Eastern jobbers will hold the
packers up to the very highest standards this
year Is no more certain than that the Oregon
packer will maintain the same attitude to
ward the grower. The packers bought at
higher prices than now prevail. They have
to take the chance of rejections and will not
take prunes that have a fault. The grower
who tries to deliver prunes that are under
dried or that are scorched will have trouble
on his hands, if he happens to be one of
those who contacted at the top of the market.
SHOULD ACCEPT OFFER
VIEW'S OF CAPTAIN SPEXCEIt ON
ALASKA STEAMSHIP USE,
Declares Portland Will Never Again
Have Such Opportunity to Ob
tain Trade of Large Region.
On the subiect of establishing a steam
ship line between Portland and Alaska,
Captain El W. Spencer, of The Dalles
Transportation Company, has decided
views.
The neonle of Portland are now offered
something that can never be duplicated,"
he said yesterday. "The commercial
bodies of the city have had a proposal
made them recently which would give
Portland an unexampled hold on the busi
ness of the territory. It is not likely to
ro besrelnK for any length of time, and
unless we act promptly the offer made to
us granting special privileges and afford
ing landing facilities not obtainable by
others, is likely to be lost.
The amount of money required is a
mere bagatelle to this community. Many
promises of support have been made by
influential men. and if we put our snoui-
ders to the wheel the proposition will be
accomplished. Nor should we wait to be
called on. I am ready to ao my snare,
and will do it today without solicitation.
Let others do likewise and the Portland-
Alaska steamship project is assured."
A number of others have made promises
to support the project now in charge of
committees from the four commercial or
ganizations and conditionally pledged
sums of money. It is expected that others
will come forward from day to day.
In the meantime the committeemen are
working to interest the. people and en
deavoring: to get a large number to prom
ise financial support in case tne entire
amount is raised.
Within a day or two the committeemen
will hold a meeting, when the proposition
will be discussed more fully, together with
the result of the efforts among the busi
ness men of Portland,
Jerome Willing to Be Candidate.
NEW YORK, Aug. 11 John A. Henne-
bery. chief clerk in District Attorney
Jerome's office and tne manager 01 mr.
Jerome's last campaign, gave it out as
his belief that Mr. Jerome would accept
the nomination for Governor on the Deny-
ocratlc ticket if there was a strong de
mand for his nomination. Mr. Henne-
berv said:
"In the last few days there has ap
peared in various parts of the state a
strong sentiment in favor or Mr. jerome,
Several men prominent in the Democratic
party have urged him to consider the
nomination. 1 nave not seen mm in sev
eral days, but I am satisfied that, if
there Is a demand for him, he will make
the run for Governor on the Democratic
ticket. He will look upon it as a duty
which as a Democrat he cannot disre
gard."

Children
Thrive
on
j Grape -Nuts I
A Ma-ss. Dhvslcian has found a cure
fnr rrinstlnatlon in children citing: 15
cases by feeding- them urape-isuis.
"Some time ago," he writes, I Decame
interested in vour food. Grape-Xuts. as a
cure for constipatlono in children. Hav
ing tried it in my own family, i nave
advised It In fifteen cases In which all
suffered with cdnstipatlon more or less
severe. The result has been absolute
Tcilof In all.
"I write this that other children may
be benefited."
How much better It is thus to bring
n-hont a healthy action In the bowels of
growing children by natural means
than to feed them with Improper looa,
requiring some kind of cathartic at in
tervals to overcome constipation.
Grape-Nuts gives energy to the entire
Kvstem. including the nerves
that cause the natural contraction ana
relaxation of the bowel muscles that
propel the food mass along,
it t nredieested. also, and the blood
easily absorbs the food as It goes
through the body, storing up vitality and
force for the functions of all the organs.
Children especially, should ' get the
right start as to habits of living. They
should m-ow into bright, strong, cheer
ful men and women. Grape-Nuts solves
the question of the start; a wnoicsome
m will do the rest.
Children's teeth are benefited by
chewing Grape-Nuts .also. Tour dentist
will tell vou that a certain amount of
exercise In chewing firm food 13 neces
sary to grow strong, beautiful teeth.
Tih TiMd ex-ercisA lust the same as
imuriM If thev are to erow' strong; and
firm, as nature Intended. Grape-Nuts
gives the exercise ana aiso gives mate
rial from which good teeth are made.
