IS THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, JANUARY 21, 1911 BEGUN OREGON DOGK Cutting of Prices Attributed to Reduction Made to Jane L Stanford. CORBETT DEFENDS ACTION Move by 1'ort, lie Says, May Drive from Portland Concern That Is of Two-Fold IWneflt In . Time of 'eceMi j. That a reduction of 15 per cent asreed to with the owners of the bar kentine Jane 1. Stanford In drydocklng that vessel, after she arrived In the Columbia In a helpless condition after having struck on Grays Harbor bar, . was Justifiable ami entirely within the rights of the Oregon Drydock t om puny was the expressed view of W. IL Oorbett. president of that corporation. last night, when he was toid that the committee of 60 had In Ita possession the original contract. Captain Albert Crowe and others who know of the contract attribute the slashing of tariffs 5') per cent by the 1'ort of Portland Commission to the fact the Oregon drydock had made con cessions. Among smaller or Individual contractors engaged In ship repairs the reduction was a general topic yester day, while among members of the Com mission It wsa regarded as an excellent advertisement for the port and a move that unquestionably would bring busi ness. Corbelt Defend Contract. 'There Is this about the contract re garding the Jane I. Stanford." said Mr. Corbett. "When the 1'ort of Port land announced a reduction of 15 per cent recently to all firms that would do 15000 worth of business on the pub lic drydock during a year, we figured that our patronage of that plant would equal the amount at least, and should we have fallen short we would have had to make tip the deficiency out of our pockets. We advertised the public drydock in connection with our plant all over the country, and now we prob ably have to take chances on getting business for our plant when the other dock Is busy. Disabled ships, which provide the main patronage of a dry- dock, are creatures of calamity, and the fact that low rates are effective does not mean that business will In crease. "We cannot reduce rates on the Ore- iron drydock and break even, for the revenue Just about pays running ex penses. I feel that members of the Commission have permitted their Judg ment to be warped by statements of outsiders and that they have not given the situation reasonable consideration. Benefit Is Two-IYdd. "This move may tend to bankrupt the Oregon Drydock Company and drive away from the port an Industry that works a two-fold benefit, for In gain ing business and thereby keeping up the plant In the Interest of the stock holders. It affords Portland two dry nocks and at times, like the past two Weeks, when three disabled vessels were In the harbor. It means that ves sels will be subject to no delay and they can be headed for sea again -without having to await turns to be lifted." The Oregon drydock has only one rontract in prospect, that of lifting tne revenue cutter Manning-, which Is to be done today. Besides wort on the lug McCraken. which starts next week. the Port or Portland drydock may se cure the work of raising the wrecked steamer Yucatan, recently sold, and which may be brought here. The new rates go Into effect Monday, and It has not been decided whether the Ore gon drydock will make any cut. FRESHET'S FKClLIAn WHIMS Tpper Willamette Rising at Few Points and Falling at Others. Captain A. TV. Graham, of the Tel low Stack Line, who has watched the Willamette River for years, having been operating aa asr south as Cor vallis. yesterday characterized the prevent freshet as the most peculiar 'lie nas Known, because reports from Jr.ugene indicated that the stream was falling, while at Peoria It rose one foot during the night and at Albany It was practically at a standstill. "I feel that the danger Is past at Portland, because the Increase todav has not been in ei,-a or h.ir . i..k ri four, but there will be constderahla quantities of water yet to pass, be- cause 'Of the rise In th tinnor v.., ,..-. of the Willamette," saij. Captain Gra- I karr "The Influence nrobablv la nrin.

There was an Increased amount of drift running In the harbor yesterday, there being numerous logs that ap peared to have broken from booms, while large trees and considerable smaller stun! floated. There waa a small scow sighted shortly before noon, but It passed the bridges without harm. In anticipation of the water covering the lower decks of docks, heavy plank ing has been nailed crosswise to hold down the decking and several of the steamboat concerns have moved to tip per docks, but It Is the general Impres sion that they can return next week. CEIM REPRESENTS FX PORTERS Shanghai Company Will 'Equal Big Bulne.a or La.t Year. Werner Gelm is due In Portland Feb ruary 1 to represent the China import A Export Lumber Company, succeeding K. Schulxe. manager and prn?ial stock holder of the corporation, who will re turn to Shanghai to direct Its affairs. Mr. chulze mill depart toduy for San Francisco to be absent a few days, and on his return he expects to Journey to tVattle to meet and introduce Mr. Gelm to mill interests. During 1310 the company shipped 50. OAorO feet of lumber from Portland and thereby gained the distinction of being the heaviest Individual exporter on the Coast. Even In the face of higher freights, which Mr. Schulxe says range from S to 3o per cent above those of last year, he feels that 1!U1 will prove as good a season for lumber and that his company will handle not less from Port land than In 1910. The scarcity of early steam tonnage Is a problem being dealt with, as there were only three vessels available January 1. the British steamer Northumbrl. which the company fixed Thursday for March loading here, the lirltish steamer Knight of St. George, taken by the Waterhouse Interests, and the Norwegian steamer TordenskgoH. rhlcli baa also been chartered for biisl- nm outside of Portland. There are vessels on the way arovnd the .Horn, but thry will not be available for from six weeka to two months. It la the Impression that the fleet on the way to Coast ports will provide sufficient tonnage for the busy Summer aeason and exporters can so guard their Inter ests as to provide transportation for Fa'.l delivery.

ONE HONEYMOON FLEETING Only Three Weeks or Happy Life Vouchsafed to nrldc Weeping Woman Says "Thank You" When Bonds Are Severed. Being rather doubtful of his continued ability to catch leaden bullets In his teeth, Barney Metzger. who charges that his wife is given to enforcing domestic discipline with a revolver, sought safety in the divorce mill of the Circuit Court, yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Metzger was not at all chary about using her weapon, the husband com plained. She opened fire on him two months ago at a First-street Jewelry shop m-here the hunbnnd Is employed. He says lie greeted his wife In the most friendly way when she entered the door, but that she unceremoniously opened tire on him. He dodged four or five bullets before being struck. One ball drove through a partition and struck a cus tomer of 'an adjoining restaurant In tho nana. . Housework Left Undone. This was not Metzger's one grievance. His wife, he said, had an abject horror or housework and would not take care of their apartments properly. They were married In Oregon City a year ago. I was the fourth or fifth venture for each of them. The divorce was granted. The court severed seven other binding matrimonial knots In half an hour. Bertha Sproat secured a divorce from Dr. James Sproat. a practicing physl clan, because he has failed to support her properly. "The very furniture in our home Is not paid for." she said. "Three weeks" was the title of the little domestic tragedy In the Wheeler household. Mrs. Harland Wheeler said that she was wedded to Harland at Seattle last June. They lived together Just 21 days and then the husband began paying attention to other women and re maining away from her altogether. She accused him of Infidelity and lie ad' mltted it was quite true, she said. Vernon E. Scott told a story that marked him as the veteran of many do mestic battles. He wedded Ethel Scott five years ago, and no sooner was the ceremony over than her amiable, cooing disposition changed to ono calculated to drive terror into the heart of the average man, so he testified. He got a divorce. Alblna Pilzcr wept bitterly In telling of the beating that had been inflicted upon her by Fritz Pllzer. a -mechanic. They were married 17 years ago. She got the divorce and said "thank you." L. E. Duck was divorced from Mary Duck because she has not been home for a long time; Mrs. Theresa Jackson obtnlned a decree against S. C. Jackson for the same reason, and John ZsyczaK, a Pole, was divorced from nis wire. Maria, who likes Warsaw better than Portland and refuses to come here to live with him. They have one little son, who is with tne mother. BOSSUET HELPED BY STORM Celtic Glen Starts Up and Pierre Antonlnc Leaves. Southerly winds that wrottght havoc with vessels heading Into them made smooth suiting for the French bark Bos- suet, as she yesterday crossed into the Columbia at noon, six days after passing between San' Francisco heads. The voy age is by no means among the record breakers. The Bossuet was here In April, 1910, and cleared April 27 for Newcastle, with 1.505.622 feet of lumber. She comes this time to load wheat for Glrvln & Eyre. The British ship Celtic Glen, which ar rived Thursday from Callao, left up yes terday morning and Is due at Llnnton early today to discharge ballast and pre pare for wheat loading. The Bossuet will be at the ballast dock early In the week. On the way here the Celtic Glen passed the French bark Pierre Antonlne, hlch left the harbor in tow or tne Ocklahama and was met by the tug Wallula. towing the Britisher, a transfer being made on the lower river. The Balmoral shirteu yesteraay aner- noon from Linn ton to Montgomery dock No. 2. where she will begin loading wheat Monday. The Miml will take on suffi cient wheat today at the North Bank dock to serve as ballast and she will shift across the river, while the Bayard will resume loading today at Oceania FIGIITERS XOT PROSECUTED Jndgo McGinn. Follows Precedent Set In Thayer "Ground Squabble." Concurring in the Thayer "ground squabble" decision handed down by the Oregon Supreme Court years since. Cir cuit Judge McGinn yesterday continued an assault case in order that the prin cipals might be given an opportunity of getting together and settling their troubles out of court- Charles J. Kelly was brought before Judge McGinn on the charge of having engaged in a "rough-and-tumble." knock-down-and-drag-out fight In the suburbs with one Frank Sinclair. Attorney John F. Logan, representing Kelly, advised the court that It was merely another "ground squabble" case. Oddly enough Judge McGinn was prose- uting attorney at the time the Thayer eclslon was made In a case McGinn had prosecuted, and the findings of the Supreme Court Justice were quite at variance .with the views then held by the proseoutlng officer. 'Such occurrences. the decision reads, "are not respectable, but are lsgraceful and demoralizing; yet It s better that they be Indulged In occa sionally than that men lose their grit nd become dudes and poltroons. M'GIXN PAROLES EMBEZZLER Practice of Holding Men In Jail Without Trial Condemned. Condemning the practice of holding men charged with petty offenses In JaJl for monthsi without trial. Circuit Judge McGinn yesterday paroled O. A. Jack son, who pleaded guilty to the embez zlement of Po- It was shown that Jack son had been in Jail since July 1 await ing a chance to be heard in court. This man has been held In Jail too long." said the court, "and I shall cer tainly-let him go on probation." Jackson was- sentenced to a year in the Penitentiary and advised that so long ss he behaves himself he will not have to serve in Jail. MORGAN INDORSES PLAN Aldrlch Monetary System Would Release Idle Millions. NEW YORK, Jan. 20. A statement Issued from the office of J. P. Morgan A Co. by Henry P. Davison, of that firm, gives the Aldrlch currency re form pian the most enthusiastic in dorsement it has received from any notable Wall-street source. The statement iej as follows: "Senator Aldrlch's plan Is admirably effective and simple. In the framing of the bill there may be various de tails to work out. but the essential thing is that the proposal as made is well fitted to all conditions and to all sections of the United States. ' "This plan Is representative and most equitable. Each institution In the United States would have fair repre sentation and opportunity to avail it self of the advantages of the Reserve Association. In the second place, the association is so safeguarded as to be free from control by any special in terest and the supervising officers will i not be' subject to political influences. "Such a plan as Senator Aldrlch has outlined gives, mobility to some thir teen or fourteen hundred million dol lars now lying Idle in bank vaults. The plan for assuming the note Issues of banks Is one which 'cannot fail to appeal to all National bank officers." AUTO USED TO EXPLOIT A. S, ASHLEY TO MAKE CXIQUE " LECTURE TOUR.

Mr. Ashley returned a few days ago from Portland where he made some pre liminary arrangements for the long trip and is greatly pleased over the co-op eration promised by the officials of the O.-W. R. & N. Co. and the- promotion department of the Portland Commercial Club. Mr. Ashley Is considered well quali fied for conducting this lecture tour.

The inflamma tion, discharge, discolored flesh, and the fact that local applications have no permanent effect toward healing1 the ulcer, shows that deep down in the system there is a morbid cause for the sore. But more convincing proof that bad blood is the cause for these places is furnished by the fact that even removing the sore or ulcer by surgical operation does not cure; they always return. Nature will heal any sore if the blood is pure aud healthy, but until the circulation is cleansed of all impure matter and supplied with nourishing and plasmic qualities the infected condition of flesh is OBLIGED to remain. S. S. S. heals Old Sores in a perfectly natural way. It goes into the blood, removes the impurities and morbid matters, adds nourishing qualities to this vital fluid, and brings about the very con ditions that are necessary be fore any sore can heal. S.S.S. is a perfect blood purifier, acting directly on the circula tion through the stomach and digestive mem bers. Its use makes rich, red, healthy blood, which nourishes all flesh tis-. sues instead of infecting them with the virulent matter which keep old sores open.
