Following the cruise of the Bos. ton to Coos Bay last year It was unof ficially suggested that the next cruise be made aboard a vessel In the regu lar service, as has been done with other organizations. In that way It is believed the men get a more general Idea of life aboard ship, as they are thrown In company with men of the Navy and for the period of the cruise must serve as though permanent mem bers of the complement. Information from Washington l that the Coast dl- visions will go to sea on the respective ships assigned to them. Governor West has not passed finally on the recent re port of the examining board before whom offl'-ers of the mlMtla arpcared, but he Is expected to forward the papers here soon. AI.rEXA TO LOAD IIERK XEXT French Carrier Have Wheat Option for w Senoon. Hardly had the schoner Alpena got under way from Everett for San Pe dro Wednesday than she was chartered bv J. J. Moors Co. to load lumber on the Columbia Illver for Valparaiso at f: d. The (Chooner J. W. Clise, which Is at Callao. has been fixed by W. R. Grace Co. for Valparaiso loading, but probably will receive cargo on Puget Sound. Two grain carriers, the trench barks Berengere and Brlxeux, have been char tered by Hind, Rolph & Co., for wheat loading at San Francisco at 23 shillings or 31 shillings, with the option of load ing here or on Puget Sound. Both are to work new-crop wheat. The Beren gere Is on the way from Rotterdam, from where she sailed December 2 for the Golden Gate, end the Brlxeux put out from Hull for San Francisco Jan uary 24. Sleamer Areata YUits) Marsbricld. MARSH FIELD, Or.. Feb. 9. (Spe cial.) The old steamer Areata Is In port at Marshfleld to take on a cargo of coal. She has not been In Coos Bay for a long time, but years ago was the only steamer that visited the port, and for 17 years carried coal from the Llbby mine to California. Captain Macgenn, of the steamer Breakwater, was for a long time on the Areata. She made her first trip to Coos Bay In the early '70s and was probably the most famil iar vessel In this port lor a long time. Many of the older cttlxcns of the place greeted the steamer when she came In this time. Argument on AY reck Next Step. Testimony as to liability was com pleted yesterday In the libel suit of the Columbia Contract Company against the steamer Geo. W. Elder, which Is charged with having been in error at the time it ran down and sunk the steamer Daniel Kern In the Columbia River. Argument on this testimony will be made soon before Judge Wolverton at San Francisco. If he then decides that the Geo. W". Elder was In fault, further testimony will be taken, either before him or a master, as to the mmount of damage sustained. If the findings show the Daniel Kern to have been at fault the Elder will be award ed damages for her Injuries. Nottingham Case Ends. Judge Wolverton. in the United States District Court, Issued an order yester day dismissing the llhel against the schooner William Nottingham and di rected That the vessel be redelivered to Its owrer. the Globe Navigation Com pany. The order recltej that claims of the Port of Portland Commission and the crew of Its tug, that bad solved - t una the vessel, had been settled and there were no other claims against the craft rccordod. Sailor' Body Is Recovered. MAP.SHFIELD, Or.. Feb. 8. (Spe cial.) The body of Alex Nicholson, a sailor on the schooner Omega, who was drowned nearly a month ago, haa been found.

Campbell has resumed command of the steamer Hustler, relieving Captain C. H. Fuller. On completing loading the last of a parcel of lumber at Clark & Wilson"s mills at Llnnton today, the British steamer Hartlngton Is to shift to St. Johns. Carrying- 760,000 feet of lumber the steamer Wasp cleared yesterday for San Francisco, the steamer Rosecrans clearing for Gavlota and the tanker Catania for the Golden Gate. Major Mclndoe and Major Morrow, Corps of Engineers. U. S. A., In charge of Improvements In the first and sec ond districts, are expected home from the Panama Canal next week. Further depredatlofts credited to river thieves was reported yesterday in connection with the launch Idle Hour having been stripped of engine parts, tools and other equipment. Such a demand Is said to exist on Puget Sound for steamer space to han dle flour shipments to the Far East that on the next voyage of the big liner Minnesota, sailing March 16. she will have a full cargo, the second to be loaded since she was launched. After having been in the harbor since the middle of September, during which time her hull was cleaned and painted, her machinery overhauled and oil burn ers and tanks installed, the Government dredge Clatsop left down yesterday. She is operated on the channel from La Du to the lower harbor. Owing to a quantity of lumber having been unloaded during the night on the draw of the Steel bridge, intended for use In redecklng the structure, the weight was found so heavy that the draw could not be opened from 6 to 8 o'clock yesterday morning, and sev eral vessels were delayed. When the steamer Sue H. Elmore sailed late last night for Tillamook It was hoped that she would escape fur ther delays through being baibound and her return Is expected Wednesday so she can sail acaln Friday. The gaso line schooner Tillamook, also of the Elmore fleet. Is due here today and will sail tonight, bound direct for Bandon, and on the way north will call at Bay ocean. She Is on a weekly schedule.

IRON OUTPUT LARGE Steel Corporation Operates 85 Per Cent of Capacity. PRICES ARE MAINTAINED Plate Anticipate an Actlre De mand Because of Prospective Shipbuilding--Cold Weather Affects General Trade. NEW TORK, Feb. . R. O. Dun Co. a weekly review of trade tomorrow will say: The volume of business continues larsre. although there Is little disposition to op erate In long-range anticipation of future requirements. The coldest Winter of many years, while creating a sustained demand for Winter merchandise, serves generally to Interfere with the distribution of loo", and this causes some Interruption to a lib eral trade movement. Pig iron production increased slightly in January and the leading Interest Is now operating- about 5 per cent of Its blast furnace capacity. Current business Is quiet, however, with Bessemer quoted nominally at 814 0 14.2 j, and baslo 111.25. valley. Steel billets, four by four, remain at $20 and sheet and tin bars at $31 Pittsburg. Recent contracts Include an order for 18.000 cars from the Pennsylvania Railroad, while two other systems are in the market for about (00 cars of various types. Orders for rails aggregate a fair tonnage. Prospective shipbuilding encourages East ern plate mills to anticipate att active de mand for plates and shapes. It being esti mated that the work In view will require fully 75,000 tona Leather Is quiet and business falls to re flect the conditions shown in raw material. Tanners are holding prices very strong, but buyers are holding off and taking only small quantities. ExrANSIOX IS SLOW BUT STEADY Further Increase) In Jobbing and Manufac turing Lines. NEW TORK. Feb. . Bradstreets tomor row will say: - Although trade lacks snap and is de void of uniformity, the undercurrents are In the direction of slow but steady expan sion. The week brought forth a further slight Increase in Jobbing and manufacturing lines. Trade In the leading Eastern and West ern drj goods markets has improved. Cotton goods are firmer all around. Jobbers are doing more and they, in turn, are making heavier purchases, but the retail dealers, as a general rule, appear to have as sumed the rolevof a consistent conservative. Cold weather West and Northwest has hampered salesmen In getting about, and. as a general proposition, road orders are hardly on a par with those of last year. On the other hand, the low temperature has helped retail trade in heavy wearing ap parel and the prolonged cold spell has aided in emptying shelves of Winter goods. Spring displays are now under way. but it is too early to expect much results. Business failures for the weak ending Feb ruary 8 In the I'nlted Statea were 3118. against 413 last week. Butlness failures for the week In Canada number 28, which compares with SI last week. Wheat (Including flour) exports from the United States and Canada for the week ending February 8 aggregate 8.81 8. 45S bush els, against 1,157.468 last week.
