Exports for September, lull 1,024.171 bushels of wheat and 34,950 bar rels of flour. Valuations on cargo exported from Portland during the cereal year ending yetserday surpassed those for the 1911 1912 period. In brief there were 1,307,146 bushels more of wheat floated during the pe riod, 57.285,432 feet mors of lumber went to foreign lands and 31,856,914 feet more was dispatched to domestic ports, the gain in lumber in both classes beinjc 89,142.346 feet. In addi tion the barley shipments were the largest by far for ten seasons. . In one column a falling oft is noted, that being flour, and while Portland millers were in the market stronger than of yoro and a creditable showing ould have been made, they labored under the same handicap that figured against them in the 1911-12 season, namely, lack of transportation facili ties. With, two steamer lines, now operating regularly, there is no doubt a material improvement will result during the 1913-14 period with propor tionately greater gains In the move ment of wheat to the Far East. Coastwise shipments of wheat and Tour have Increased as well as the off shore trade and much of the cereal sent to California, finds Its .way to the marts of the world without credit to Oregon. Besides, there are quantities of tallow, salmon, prunes and other commodities that move, some to Europe direct and other shipments by way of the Atlan tic side, that are not credited and it is estimated that alone had a valuation approximately of $500,000. One more cargo of grain, principally barley, was about ready on the British bark Arracan to be cleared for the United Kingdom, and the steamers Lord Derby, Saxonla and Arna will be dispatched. during the next two weeks, carrying largely grain and flour, eo July will make a showing in the coming year's trade. It is not often vessels are cleared with grain the first month, of the cereal year and few years have continued brisk in that respect through June, but the last season has been an exception and even last month over 400,000 bush els of wheat was floated. Bis Surprise In Lumber. The greatest surprise has been In lumber. With vessels cleared yester day for California ports, the coastwise business for June climbed to 19.106.000 teet, while in June a year ago only 13,200,000 feet was sent. In the off shore fleet last month a total of 16, 290,417 feet was carried against 12, 636.032 feet in June. 1912. The showing for the year in both coastwise and offshore channels Is the greatest the port has made and there has been a rapid gain in the past four years in the amount of lumben, sold to California buyers that moved by water. The foreign lumber business has held above 100,000,000 feet for a few seasons until last year, when it fell to 88,244, 439 feet, but high freights and the scarcity of tonnage were said to have been responsible for that. There has been a natural increase in the lumber demand from California, coupled with the introduction of a number of new and larger vessels in the lumber fleet and the establishment of additional yards in the south. Mtilmen. Are Interested. Villmen are Interested more exten sively in steamers, so material will continue to move even should a falling market force independently owned vessels out of commission. In the June summary of the Mer chants Exchange total wheat ship ments to all ports. California included, are placed at 1.138.727 bushels as against but 271,994 bushels in June, 1912. For the cereal year credit is given Portland for having dispatched by water 14.752.221 bushels of wheat ana last season the total was but 9.793.351 bushel3. Puget Sound wheat shipments last month were ?t47 771 bushels and for June a year ago the ioiai was 201,883 bushels. For the year the northern ports floated 7 SIR too bushels, against 5,029.566 bushels during the. 1911-12 season. The Merchants Exchange combines Northwest shipments for the year and places them at 39.369,060 bushels, which mciuues nour reduced to wheat-measure. That Is the greatest amount eijico me isui-ux season, when they 1 catiini iD.iDi.iQo ousneis. J. W. CONSIDINE PLEASED Portland Theatrical Business De clared Satisfactory. That Portland is showing up better from a theatrical point of view than are other cities on the Coast during the present rather dull season Is the statement John W. Considine, of Sul livan & Considine, makes while here on one of his periodical visits. The thea ter magnate says the East and Middle West are recovering from their nerlod cf dullness while the Coast theaters are showing a falling off in attend ance. Mr. Considine says, however, that there la no need of rear regarding in dustrial conditions and declares himself well satisfied with the showing being made by the chain or theaters of which be is part owner. lie will leave for the north the middle of the week.

An old friend appeared when the Hamburg - American liner Saxonla berthed at the North Bank dock on her first visit to Portland at 1 o'clock yes terday. Smiling down from the bridge was Captain C. Neumann, who made his debut In maritime circles here on the Hamburg-American liner Arabia, when she was in the service of the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company. Captain Neumann knew every Tom, Dick and Harry on the dock yestrday, and it was a case of "Wie gehts, mein Herr," to them all. It was after the Arabia had been released from custody during the Japanese-Russian war that Captain Neumann was assigned as her commander, and he' is rated as the most popular skipper in the German leet. Former employes of the Hamburg-American, Custom-House inspec tors and many others of the waterfront contingent were on hand to greet the Saxonla, and there was a session on board of "swapping" the latest news concerning mutual friends. - "Fog for nine days after leaving the Japanese coast, not seeing the sun dur ing that time, and with rain following, is the story of the run across -the Pa cific," said Captain Neumann. "The last day we were favored, and when it cleared we saw Vancouver Island. We were 18 days on the way, and while there was no bad weather it was any thing but pleasant with such a siege of fog and rain." For Portland are 1700 tons of cargo. comprising gunnies, rice,1 tea, sulphur, paper, matting, Chinese merchandise and the usual assortment from the Orient, in addition to a small list. of stuff from Hamburg. No time will be ost in dispatching the liner, and as soon as she arrived a barge of lumber was swung alongside to be loaded as fast as other cargo is delivered on the dock. In the way of livestock were three monkeys and several pigs. Officers with Captain Neumann in clude First Officer Vogel.

Street and sewer Interest fund.. Water main fund 2.636.01 4,762.08 Total. ?3.140,886.C3 Reckless Expenditures Are Charged Against Outgoing Officials, Leav ing Many Obligations. One of the most serious handicaps facing the new commission which takes over the city government today will be lack of money to handle the city's business. Because of unusually large expenditures during the last two years the various funds are at bedrock, and it will be impossible for the new administration to carry out any exten sive public improvements this year. The same conditions will handicap the new officials next year, owing to the fact that there will be little or no surplus in the funds at the end of this year. Heretofore there generally has been a surplus In ail the funds. This time, however, the tax levy must take care of . the deficiencies of this year, due to apparent reckless expenditures of the administration Just closing. City Treasurer Adams yesterday made up a complete report of funds on hand in the treasury at the close of business last night. From these amounts must be deducted large ex penditures which have been authorized In contracts which will have to be paid from the various funds during the remainder of the year. It is declared that every fund has been drained. The financial statement of the Treas urer covering the last six months shows a total on hand in all funds of $3,140,886.63. The total transactions of the city during the six months amount ed to $12,596,461.52.

DOCK. PLANS ARE APPROVED Commission Prepares to Pay for Land Purchased for Docks. On the approval of plans and spe clncations for Public Dock No. 1. to be built between .Fifteenth and Eighteenth street, on the West Side waterfront, by City Attorney Grant and . the board of fire underwriters; the Commission of Public Docks also affixed its assent yesterday and the first publication was made lor bids on the undertaking. The Commission met in special ses sion and among other things decided to draw warrants for the payment of the purchase price on property of the Star band Company, which will be done to day, also that known as Martin's dock as soon as the Martin estate is settled it being now in- course of -probate. Pay ment is to be made on the other parcels when title is perfected to the satisfac tlon of the Commission. The question of retaining W. C. Benbow as legal man of the Commission was' discussed and it was agreed to dispense with his services August 1, by which time the last brief he is engaged on will be finished. A proposition has been made to the North Pacific Steamship Company to vacate Martin's dock and shift to Albers dock No. a, there to pay a. rate of 25 cents a ton for cargo handled over the dock up to 3700 tons a month and over that and up to 6000 tons the Commission will shoulder the expense, until February 14, 1914, when the lease on Martin s dock expires. The rent there has been $925 a month and If the charges on Albers dock are less the company is to pay the Commission the difference. C. P. Doe, head of the line, is expected this week from the south to complete details. TUG TAKES "WATER. TODAY L. E. Thompson to Jojn Harbor Tow- boats Xext Month.

Let S. S. S. Rid Yon of All Blood Disorders. If you are down with rheumatism; If you sneeze, feel chilled, are choked with catarrh, have a cough, or your skin is pimpled and irritated with, rash, eczema, or any other blood dis order, just remember that almost all the ills of life come from impure blood. And you can easily give your blood a good, thorough cleansing, a catn, by using S. S. S. There is no need for anyone to be despondent over tne illness or blood Impurities. No matter how badly they attack the sys tem, or how unsightly becomes tha skin, just remember there is one in gredient in S. S. S. that so stimulates the cellular tissues throughout the body that each part selects its owa essential nutriment from the blood. This means that all decav. nil tin Ic ing down of the tissues, is checked and repair work begins. S. S. S. has such a specific influence on all local cells as to preserve their mutual welfare and afford a proper relative assistance to each other. More attention is being given to constructive medicine than ever before and S. S. S. is the hls-hest achievement in this line. For many years people relied upon mercury. iodide or potash, arsenic, "rjhvsics." cathartics and "dope" as remedies for blood sickness, but now the pure, vegetable S. S. S. is their safeguard. iou can get s. S. S. in any drusr store, but insist upon havinsr it. And you should take no chance by per mitting anyone to recommend a sub stitute.

Some concern is expressed for the American schooner Americana, which left the Columbia River for Sydney March 3 with a lumber cargo loaded at Knappton. She was in the vicinity of the schooner Lyman D. Foster for a time, but they parted company shortly before the Foster was swept by a hur ricane and so damaged that she was abandoned. She is said to have crossed the equator 23 days after leaving the river and the average time for the re mainder of the voyage is 25 days, so she Is decidedly tardy.

GRATEFUL FOR THE GOOD IT HAS DONE Oak Grove Man Has Tried Plant Juico With the Usual Good Results. Now Praises It. Mr. F. E. Wright, who resides at Oak Grove. Oregon, where he has lived with his mother, Mrs. Cox, has this to say about Plant Juice: . "I have suffered greatly from ca tarrh for ten years, and my condition has been gradually getting worse for the last year: it affected my ears and caused one of them to run a watery sort of discharge. In the mornings there was such an accumulation of mucus in my throat that it caused me to hawk and spit for several hours before getting it cleared out. This often caused me to gag and vomit. I commenced taking Plant Juice about two months ago, and find that my condition is greatly improved; my ear has stopped running and my general condition is greatly benefited. I am much stronger and have gained eight pounds since I began to use Plant Juice. I feel very grateful for the good It has done me and am glad to recommend it to others." Catarrh is an inflammation of the mucous membranes. This membrane ex tends from the nostrils clear through the alimentary tract, and any part of this surface is liable to be affected with catarrh. Plant Juice is the best constitutional treatment for this dis ease, it puts the whole system Into good condition and keeps the mucous surface in a clean, healthy condition. It- removes all Impurities from the blood and tones up the stomach and digestive organs, corrects constipation, and assists nature in every way to keep the whole body In normal healthy condition.
