20 THE MORXOfx OREGOXIAX, THURSDAY. JUNE 23, 1910. POSTPONEMENTOF BUDGET IS ASKED Appropriation of $60,000 for Willamette River Next Year Is Request. GROWERS BEHIND REQUEST Fresent Plan of Annual Operations on Willamette Said to Bo Useless Unless Funds Are Provided for Larger Contracts. . Representing growers of the Upper Willamette districts, above HewDerg, Tho have been isolated from the Port land produce mark:et because of the imnaasable condition of the stream from Newberg to Salem, Captain Rich, ard Chllcott yesterday forwarded com munlcations to commercial organiza tions at Salem. Albany, Newberg, Ore gon City and Portland, asking their co-operation in a move to prevent the expenditure of J30.000 on the stream this season. He asks that the work be ordered delayed until next year, when 960.000 will be on hand for permanent Improvements. He says in the communication that he has discussed the proposal generally with shippers along the stream and that they favored the question being shouldered by the commercial bodies as the most effective means of getting re ults. Reasons Set Forth. The letter is, in part, as follows: The fact that steamer cannot now ply on the Willamette River, above the City of ewberg. I argument enougn relative to the condition of the river. The question with us is. How shall the present conditions be amelloratea it win probably be three or four weeks before an orficlal communication irom wasnington reaches the engineers' office in Portland with orders to commence work. Three weeks more will be consumed to put the equipment in order. From one to two weeks will be required to move the same to the work and by that time the low-water period Is nearly at an end, consequently any money expended this season ia practically useless and would be wasted. The proposition It is desired to set forth is this: That one man of the Engineer Corps be placed in charge of the Willam ette River during his life or term of service. as the practice of removing men every one or two years who nave gained experience in a given locality, is not conducive to the public benefit; that every dollar expended on the river shall be for . permanent lm ' provements. no money whatever to be ex pended for temporary work, and that all . work shall be done under tne contract sys tem and the surveillance of an Army engl , neer. Contract System Favored. The latter clause will be the most ef- . fective and the most potent factor in the economical expenditure of the money and the readiest manner by -which this river can be opened to navigation. If a contractor un dertakes the work, all of which can easily be specified, it will be done thoroughly and with promptness and dispatch and the men so employed will not be enjoying a Bum . mer outing. Under the present system, which has al ways been in' practice on the Willamette for 20 years or more, the river has gradually been allowed to get In a worse condition, until today it is Impassable, with the sum of sju.uuu oeing expended upon it annually. Now, if we save this season's appropria tion and place it with next vear's. a sum of 960.000 is thus available which, expended under the contract system, will open a per manent cnannei rrom Oregon Ulty to Salem, and perhaps higher. COAST TRADE PASSES RECORD Steamers Crowded and Some Must Add Passenger Accommodations. Unprecedented coastwise traffic, prin cipally noticeable by the gains in passen ger business, is being experienced in Portland and while the development of Oregon coast localities is generally cred ited with the Increase, sales of reserva tions to San Francisco and Los Angeles have climbed to such an extent that without question the extension of the Harrlman service to San Pedro will prove lucrative from its inception. Beginning at Tillamook the trade is shown to be growing to such -en extent that two regular steamers are crowded to capacity each week and the owners of the Golden Gate yesterday announced that the passenger accommodations re cently added' have been found inade quate and it has been determined to util ize her 'tween decks for berths, giving her a license for S3 persons. On the Coos Bay route the Newport.J Hn 11 i n ir Inst nlg-ht htiH o full 1 could have secured passengers, as th sales on the steamer Breakwater, sailing at 9 o'clock this morning, were so heavy that before the office closed yesterday all berths had been disposed of and ac commodations had been provided in her social hall. The steamer Bear, sailing Saturday, had but two of her saloon deck state rooms left yesterday and as they are the most expensive accommodations on the vessel, there is every reason to believe she will have a large list. The steamer Rose City's reservations have been com pleted at the Bay City and she will be added to the fleet so that sailings will be resumed in regular order when the schedule Is placed in effect to San Pe dro, it being planned to have the Beaver and Bear call there first and be followed by the Rose City. The North Pacific Steamship Company will have the Santa Clara in service ear ly next month and while the Eureka has not been able to include Coos Bay as a port of call, it is probable that harbor will be placed on the list so that the Roanoke and Elder can travel on the Portland-San Francisco-San Pedro route. STEVEDORES PAY SCALE ASKED Eir Encountered Typhoon Off Japan but Makes .Fast Passage. Pending a determination of tho dif ferences between the stevedores and longshoremen, through which the lat ter have enforced demands for the pay ment of 60 cents an hour for winch drivers and hatchtenders employed at St. Helens. Brown & McCabe are pay ing the new scale, as work was yester day started loading cargo on the Brit ish steamer Saint Eninstan at that port. The vessel arrived in the river Tuesday and was moored there during the night and began receiving lumber yesterday morning. The Norwegian steamer Eir, which reached the Portland mill Tuesday night, started loading with four gangs yesterday, and it is estimated that in twelve days she will have completed her cargo f 3,100,000 feet for Taku Bar. The vess-el left here three month ago, discharged lumber at Hankow and loaded hardwood there for Redondo, Four days from the Japanese coast she encountered a typhoon in which she labored for 12 hours, but despite that delay she made the run to Southern California in 21 days, averaging nine knots, tsne win be dispatched by Hind Rolph & Company. Accident Delays Service Record. For the first time in 21 years. Frank Malmquist, purser of the steamer Un dine, was unable to report for duty yesterday in the Kamm Line service, and his absence was due to the fact he is being treated at St. Vincent's Hos pital for injuries received about mid night, when he slipped on the deck and fell against a cavil while trying to make fast a. line thrown from an in coming steamer. Mr. Malmquist dis located his shoulder and sustained bruises. THREE STEAMERS YET UNFIXED Division of Portland Mill's Business Iieaves Little for Abroad. In excess of 4,000,000 feet of lumber was purchased from the Portland Lum ber Company by Hind, Rolph & Com pany for June and July loading and as the Eir will leave about a third of the lot, arrangements are being made- to secure sufficient additional business in the Orient so that a steamer can be sent in July for a full cargo. There are also two cargoes to be placed for loading here early in August by the same firm, being consigned to Australia and Manila, making three vessels yet to be named. The company cabled a bid to Port Pirie on 6.000,000 8TEAJTEB. INTELLIGENCE. Dae to Arrive. Name. From - Date.

Under existing conditions, the mill disposes of about 100,000 feet daily in Portland, five cars, equalling about the same in measure ment, are dispatched to the interior, while the month's business by coast wise vessels reaches 2,000,000 feet, so on a cut of 400,000 feet each 24 hours there is not much surplus for the for eign market. Inquiries are reported brisk and more business is available than is .being accepted. Deckhand Drowned in Beaver Creek. Paul Fulgence. deckboy on the steam er Cascades, was drowned in Beaver Creek yesterday, while standing on a raft that was being backed from the creek by the Cascades. Details of the accident were not received at the local office of the Shaver Transportation Company. Fulgence had been a mem ber of the crew for some time and was regarded with high favor by his em ployers. It is not known if he has rela tives here. Marine Notes. With cement from the Bay City, the steamer Wellesley reached Couch-street dock yesterday afternoon. Having discharged most of her ce ment cargo at Supple's dock, the barge Amy Turner will shift today to the Pacific Bridge Company's wharf to fin ish. Though it was planned to dispatch the Oriental liner Henrik Ibsen at day light this morning, she has been de layed and may not sail until tomorrow afternoon. "Work was started on the annual re port of the United States Corps of En gineers, covering work on the Willam ette and Columbia rivers, and It is ex pected to be ready for the public July 15. After towing the schooner W. F. Je . -ett to the lower harbor yesterday from St. Helens, the steamer Ocklahama towed the American bark Pactolus from Astoria to Prescott, where she will work lumber. Commander J. M. Ellicott left last night for Astoria to board the light house tender Heather, and he will be gin his annual tour by inspecting light stations at North Head and Cape Dis appointment, then proceeding in turn to Willapa Bay, Grays Harbor, Coos Bay and the Umpqua River. yesterday's entries at the Custom- House were the steamers Jim Butler, Stanley Dollar and Nann Smith, from San Francisco; steamer Breakwater, from Coos Bay, and the Norwegian steamer Eir, from Victoria.

Official announcement of a break in the hot wave was a hard hlow this afternoon to speculative holders of wheat. Rain at various places In the Spring crop country, where great damage to tho growing grain was feared, led to liquidation on a scale almost equaling in magnitude the "buying dur ing the previous day, hut the power to rally with vim was not plainly shown until a spe cial forecast was received indicating several days of normal temperature and probability of more moisture in the states that have been suffering most. The close was weak at a net decline of 2 to 2(2e. Corn finished HBlV4c to lMjigl'Sfce and oats 1 to 1 c lower. Lant prices in provisions were 15 to 70c be low the quotations of 24 hours previous. The stampede to sell th wheat bought on the 6-cent advance, which was scored the last two days, began with the opening bell. It was during the final hour of trading, how ever, that the heaviest break of alt came and that the speculative machine was reversed In dead earnest. There was almost as much income on selling outholds todav as there was In covering short wheat and getting Into the marKet on tne buying side the two sessions preceding. Considerable difference of opinion existed as to the extent of the rains in the -Northwest and regarding how radical would be the benefit. Weight of offerings, however Increased heavily toward the close. September ranged between 94c and 98c. closing 2 2c down at 95Wc. In the corn pit there was much unloading by longs. September moved from 595i4c to 61c and- finished 11o off at &0 .n',c. i ne casn market "was also weak. No. 2 yellow closed at 5915a39c. Oats were active and lower. September price variations nad as limits 37i37c and 39c with the close at 3737Tc, a net loss of 1-TfeC. Provisions fell materially, led by July pork.
