14 THE MORNING OKEGONIAN. THURSDAY, AUGUST 16, 1906. PREPARING FOR GRAIN SEASON Steamboat Men of the Upper Columbia River Predict Record Shipments. ..r . mm -rlL house. A. W. Wall was refused entrance NEW STEAMBOATS BUILTpor the mtle steamer Hover, and because Three Additional Craft Ready and All Available Old Vessels Have Been Repaired Steamer Hannaford Abandoned. The Upper Columbia and Snake Rivers will soon be the scene of much activity. In a week or two, when the harvest sea eon becomes fairly advanced, the work ot transporting the vast quantities of grain to market will occupy the attention of the steamboatmen plying craft on these waters. Preparations are being made to handle greater quantities of the Fall harvest this year than ever before, which is due to the- agitation created by Portland mer chants in the endeavor to have the grain shipped to Portland instead of Puget Sound for shipment to foreign lands. The building of the north-bank road turned the eyes of many growers to the natural outlet to the sea via the Colum bia River and Portland, for, by the river route, they are saved the long haul around to the Sound. When furnished the neces sary transportation facilities by the water route, they agreed to use this means in preference to paying the high railroad toll exacted by the overland route. The steamboat operators of the upper river have recently renovated all the available steamers and have several new, boats under construction which are to be ready for operation by the opening of the Fall shipping season. The steamer Wil liam H. Pringle has been recently on the ways, and, as .she is a good carrier, she will materially assist in handling the grain on the Upper Columbia above We natchee. This craft was built in 1901 by Paul Mohr, of portage road fame, and his associates. After the unfortunate end ing of that enterprise she was sold to the Columbia & Okanogan Steamboat Company. Her name, wiuch was for merly the Umatilla, was changed to the Pringle, and the vessel was taken up through the dangerous Priest Rapids to Wenatchee. This feat was considered im possible, and the owners of the boat were informed by rlvermen that they would lose the craft in the attempt, but in spite of these predictions she safely made the journey. Next season smaller boats will be sent up to this portion of the river and the Pringle will be brought down to the lower river run again. The steamer Columbia, now building at Blalock, will be launched about Septem ber 1. and will be ready for operation by the time the grain season is at its height. The steamer Mountain Gem is lying at Arlington, awaiting the opening of the season. It was hoped to have the steamer J. M. Hannaford available for the coming sea son, but owing to the poor condition of the boat's engines, hull and boilers, it has been found necessary to abandon the craft, and she is lying on the bank3 at Alnsworth and will not be repaired this season. The steamer Norma is being operated by the railroad construction companies as tender and Bupply boat to the various crews employed on the north-bank road. This is the vessel which was recently leased from Jacob Kamm, of this city. The new steamer Yakima ""will be launched about September 10, and she will also be used in the grain trade. The steamer W. R. Todd, which was recently completed, is being used in carrying freight and supplies between Kennewlck and White Bluffs, making one round trip between these points each week, and dur ing the rest of the time plies on the river below Kennewlck. The gasoline boat Mata C. Hover, operated by the Hover Trans portation Company, plies betveen Kenne wlck, Umatilla and the town of Hover. . The O. R. & N. Co.'s steamers Spokane and Lewiston will handle much of the grain on the Snake River between Rl paria and Lewiston, although at the pres ent time they are not running on regu lar schedule, owing to the low stage of the river. There are a number of smaller gasoline craft in use on the upper river, but these are used mostly as supply boats to the various camps along the Columbia. The transporting of grain by the water route Is to be made as rapid as possible, and the shipments from the upper river will' be transferred at the portage road to larger craft and brought to Portland. SEW VESSEL AT ABERDEEN Steam Schooner Quinault to Take Cargo of Lumber to Bay City. ABERDEEN, Wash., Aug. 15. (Spe cial.) The new steam schooner Quinault arrived last evening Just 72 hours t5 the minute after she left her dock at San Francisco. She encountered head winds as far north of Cape Blanco. The Quinault will carry . 650,000 feet of lumber. Captain Stream expects to get to sea Saturday. He has a union crew, and the men have promised to refrain from any act of violence during the life of the strike. The captain reports that Russell and Rogers, of San Francisco, have broken with the shipowners as sociation and employed union men. The schooner Abbey is at Montesano, load ing 250,000 feet of lumber for San Fran cisco. Head winds caused the Abbey a 23-aay trip up the coast. For five days she was within 50 miles of the Grays Harbor bar. COMERIC SAILS WITH LUMBER Big Steamship Off for Australia Carrying 2,800,000 Feet of Fir. With the departure of the British steam ship Comeric for Australia yesterday there are only three British craft remaining in the harbor. They are the steamship Beck enhara and the ships Galgate and Bra bloch. The Comeric takes a cargo of 2.800.000 feet of lumber for Port Pirie. She finished loading several days ago, but was delayed waiting for advices from home as to her destination. Of the other British vessels, the Becken ham is loading lumber for the Orient and the Erabloch is loading wheat at the Oceanic dock for the United Kingdom. The Galgate is one the disengaged list. NUMAXTIA REACHES PORT. Oriental Liner Brings Large Cargo to Local Merchants. The Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company's liner Numantia arrived up late last evening and berthed at Mont gomery dock, where she will commence discharging one of the largest cargoes ever brought here from the Orient. . Most of her freight is consigned to local mer chants and consists of a shipment of 5000 barrels of cement. 2000 bales of gun nies and a big consignment of general merchandise for local merchants. She also - has 1000 tons of overland freight that Is to be shipped East as soon as un loaded. The bit: liner had a very pleasant voy age and was not delayed to any extent en route. Her officers report meeting a little rough weather at different periods, but nothing unusual occurred to mark the voyage. She will commence discharging this morning and extra gangs of longshore men will be placed at work on the vessel, as she is scheduled to take away the largest cargo of the season on her out ward trip. This will consist principally of 55.000 barrels of flour for Yokohama and Hongkong. Hall's Rover in Danger. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15. Because his vessel was not documented at the Custom- DI Ilia IliUiKimuuii ill uctiaicu inc.. 11117 Collector at San Pedro had once given him clearance with the same vessel and It Is not unlikely that the Federal au thorities may take possession of the Rover. Hall In his application for clear ance papers to Manzanillo, Mex., de scribes the vessel as a steam yacht. Empress Liners on Faster Schedule. VANCOUVER, Aug. 15. Under the terms of a new mail contract between the British government and the Cana dian Pacific Railway, the sailing time of the Empress liners between Vancouver and Hongkong has been reduced two days. Marine Notes. The river steamer Joseph Kellogg was taken off the ways of the Portland Ship- WILL HANDLE GRAIN ; . ... . . ... building Company yesterday and came down to her dock. She will resume her regular run today. The San Francisco-Portland liner Costa Rica sailed last evening with a full cargo of 1200 tons of general mer chandise and freight for San Francisco. She is still unable to carry passengers. Joseph Supple will leave in a day or two for Seattle, where he will be pres ent when the steamer Kitsap Is given her official trial run. The builder ex pects her to make better than 20 miles on this trip. , The steamers F. A. Kllburn and Roan oke are scheduled to leave for San Fran cisco and way ports this evening. Both vessels carry passengers and are booked full for the voyage. Each has all the freight she can carry. The schooner Irene cleared yesterday for Redondo via Stella, with a cargo of 248,000 feet of lumber. The schooners W. F. Garm.s and the William Olson arrived up yesterday for lumber cargoes. The former will load at the Portland Mill and the latter at Portsmouth. The S. E. Slade Lumber Company is to Inaugurate a new experiment in the shipping line, as they intend to have schooners loaded with lumber towed to San Francisco by tugs. In this manner they hope to save much time en route, as the vagaries of the wind when trust ing to canvas sometimes requires from three to four weeks to make the trip down the coast, whereas the towing of the vessels to San Francisco can be ac complished within a week or 10 days. THEY WILL HOT EI IN SAX FRANCISCO SHIP-OWNERS STILL DEFY STRIKERS. Vessels for San Francisco From Northern Ports Will Be Sent South for Unloading. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15. On account of the labor troubles at this port, a num ber of steamships destined from San Francisco for the Northern Coast will be sent to San Diego and Port Los Ajigeles for unloading. The steam schooners now being loaded with lumber are still tied up on account of the nonunion crews aboard and the refusal of union long shorement to handle the cargoes. Such vessels as were manned with union crews had no difficulty in securing men to un load. Albert Hanlflck, a member of the Ship owners' Association, said today that tne sending of vessels to southern ports was not due to the protests made here against the increased price of lumber. He said: 'The steam schooners here are liable to be tied up for a long time. If we can not unload our vessels here, we will send them where they can be unloaded. We will never give in to Furuseth." Mexicans Are Ordered Deported. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IS. The local Bureau of Immigration has ordered the deportation of 20 Mexicans, who came here on the San Jose, and 24 who came on the Aztec. It was decided that the bringing of them here by the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, on the understand ing that when they reached here the com pany might, if it wished, hire them as sailors, was a violation of the contract labor law.

H. PRINGLE. the people of Portland. These commit tees represent the Chamber of Com merce, Board of Trade, Commercial Club and Manufacturers' Association. Those1 interested in the proposition are anxious that as many people as possi ble take shares in the company which is to be organized. An effort will be made particularly to dispose of shares of stock In one and 10-share lots. Each share is valued at $100.

CONFESSES ON DEATHBED Hindoo Servant Discloses Cache of Stolen Jewels. ST. LOUIS, Aug. 15. Acting under in structions cabled from England, John P. O'Brien, a laborer employed In the wreck ing of the World's Fair buildings, has un earthed an alligator bag containing Jewels valued at $50,000, which were stolen from Mr. and Mrs. P. Henry Clayton, of Dev onshire, England, during a visit to the Louisiana Purchase Exposition two ydhrs ago. The Jewels were stolen from a trunN and were not missed until the Claytons had returned to England after a tour around the world. They had no means of knowing whre the Jewels Had been stolen. About a month ago a Hindoo servant, who had been in their employ during their trip, was fatally injured by an elephant In India, and on his death bed confessed that he stole the Jewels while in St Louis. He said that he be came alarmed and, fearing detection, had dropped them into a nolo in the wall of .... i - - ' rvif a tit I I 4 - i the Manufacturers building. Later he again wished to secure the gems, but on returning to the place where he had se creted them, could not reach the bottom of the space between the plaster and the side of the building. Fearing to rrtke any inquiries or ask assistance, the Hin doo, departed from St. Louis with the Claytons, leaving the Jewels in their hid ing place. O'Brien was generously rewarded and was also employed by Mr. Clayton as his personal attendant. FILING OPENS AT SHOSHONE Everything Is Peaceful, and Stories of Jobbery Are Denied. CHEYENNE, Wyo., Aug. 15. The filing for lands in the Shoshone reservation be gan today at Shoshone, in the special land office at that place. One hundred and twenty-five people will file each day, the ones whose names were first drawn In the lottery at Lander filing first. No information has been received in Cheyenne which would give any color of truth to the sensational report sent out from Lander that trouble is impending near the proposed new townsite between factions from Lander and Shoshone. Un der the present arrangements for filing and drawing for homesteads and town sites there will be no repetition of the troubles incident to ' the rush In Okla homa in 1890 and all questions will prob ably be settled in a perfectly peaceful manner. The sensational report of Jobbery in connection with the turning over of the water rights to a private company on the Shoshone reservation by the State of Wyoming are positively denied by state authorities. - The purpose was to secure a uniform system of Irrigation and to pro tect and not destroy the rights of settlers. The plan was approved by the Interior Department. The maximum price of $20 cash per acre for water rights is declared to be reasonable.

WILD WITH HUMOR Eruption Broke Out In Spots All Over Bod Caused a Continual Itching for Two Years Doctor's Medicine Did no Good Cured at Expense of only $1.25 and Now THANKS CUTICURA FOR COMPLETE CURE "Some time ago I wrote you for a book on the Cuticura Remedies and received it O. K. and went and bought the Soap, Ointment, and Fills. They did me more good than any medicine I ever used. They cured me of my skin disease, and I am very thankful to you. My trouble was eruption of the skin, which, broke out in spots all over my body, and caused a continual itching which nearly drove me wild at times. I got medicine of a doctor, but it did not cure me, and when I saw in a paper your ad.. I sent to you for the Cuticura book and I studied my case in it. I then went to the drug store and bought one cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Cu ticura Ointment, and one vial of Cuti cura Pills. From the first application I received relief. I used the first set and two extra cakes of Cuticura Soap, and was completely cured. I had suffered for two years, and I again thank Cuticura for my cure. If you wish, you may publish this.

Xi MUST have THIS slriutu,. !n blue, or It's not fenulne How Good Food may Turn to Poison. DECAY Is not digestion, you know, even when it takes place in the stomach. Food decayed in the body after being eaten Is as dangerous to health as food decayed before being eaten. Food nourishes or poisons, just accord ing to how long it remains in the Bowels undigested. . Most of the Digestion occurs In the thirty feet of Intestines. They are lined with a' set of little mouths, that squeeze Digestive Juices into the Food eaten. The Instestines are also lined with millions of little suction pumps, that draw the Nutri ment from Food, as it passes them in going through. But, when the Bowel-Muscles are weak, the Food moves too slowly to stimulate the little Gastric Mouths and there is no flow or too little flow of Digestive Juice, to change the food into nourishment. Then, the food decays in the Bowels, and the little suction pumps draw Poison from the decayed Food, into the blood, in stead of the Nutrition they should have drawn. i Now, Cascarets contain the only com bination of drugs that Stimulates these Muscles of the Bowels and Intestines Just as a Cold Bath, or open-air Exercise, stim ulates a Lazy Man.
