The General Steamship corporation, operating regular services to the west coast of South America and to Aus tralia and New Zealand and repre senting the Java-Pacific line In the northwest, opened an office in Port land yesterday at 322 Railway Ex ohange building. E. N. McConalogue, northwestern traffic agent of the General Steamship corporation, ar rived here a few days ago from Seat tle and opened the office yesterday. F. Devine, at present connected with W. C. Dawson & Co. of Seattle, will be Portland agent of the company, beginning about August 15. ' Present plans of the company, it was stated yesterday by Mr. McCona logue, call for a monthly service to Australia and New Zealand and a sail ing about every 24 days to the west coast of South America- All Craft to Call Here. "Portland will be a port of call for every vessel in both services," said the traffic manager, "and will receive the same service as Puget sound and San Krancieco. We are in the mar ket for general cargo and lumber In both services." The steamer Depere, one of the ves sels operated by the General Steam ship corporation in its South Amer ican service, will be due here Thurs day and will take 200 tons of wheat and flour shipped t5 the west coast by Balfour, Guthrie & Co. The steamer Silverado, also of this fleet, called here last May for a cargo of lumber. Other vessels in this company's service from north Pacific ports to the west coast of Soutn America are the steamers Meriden, Wallingford and Lake Filbert.' Java-Pacific Line Represented. In its service to Australia and New Zealand the company operates the steamers West Mahwah, West Hoi- brook, Las Vegas, West Carmago and Culbertson. All of these vessels are of the SSOO-ton class. Those in the west coast service average about 4000 tons. The Java-Pacific line, which is rep resented by the General Steamship corporation as general agents in the northwest, operates freighters under the Dutch flag from the Pacific coast to the Dutch East Indies, Java and Manila. The steamer Arakan of this line will be due out of Puget sound September ' 15, according: to Mr. Mc Conalogue. and will call here if suf ficient freight is offered. The com pany is prepared, he said, to. extend the service of the Java-Pacific line to this port whenever sufficient freight is offered here. Mr. McConalogue made it plain yes terday that the Java-Pacific line has no connection with the Holland America line, which recently an nounced the routing of the steamer Eemdijk to Portland to inaugurate a service to Europe. The only point the two lines have in common, he aid. is that the fleets of both op- rate under the Dutch flag. . Increased Movement by Water Evident and Should Gain on New Rail Rates. Is Increase In the movement of lum ber to the Atlantic coast by water is evident in the announcement ' made yesterday by K. H. Meyer, local agent of Charles R. McCormic & Co., that within a short time four steamships and a motorship will carry lumber from the Columbia river or Grays Harbor to the Atlantic. The vessels named for the movement are the mo torship Astoria, now 14 days out from San Francisco on her way to the Co lumbia river, and the steamers East ern Glade, Steel Trader. Artlgas and Springfield. The Eastern Glade Is to take her cargo from Grays Harbor, and the others from the Columbia river. The steamer Steel Trader, due here this week, is the first vessel in the coast-to-coast service of the Isth mian line. The steamers Artigas and Springfield are operating with the steamer West Togus in the coast-to- coast service of the North Atlantic & Western Steamship company. The Artigas has already made one trip in this run. According to Mr. Meyer, the in crease in the water-borne movement of lumber to the Atlantic is due less to the recent increase in rail rates than to the railroad congestion and the car shortage. These five cargoes, he said, were booked before it was known that rates were to be in-" creased. That the movement by water will be increased by the in crease in rail rates, however, he con siders 'inevitable. Change Means Dropping Ten Men From Pay Roll of Each Boat; 123,000 Barrels Fuel In. Because of improvement In the fuel oil situation, the steamers West Nivaria and West Nomentum of the Columbia - Pacific Shipping com pany's North China line, will be re- rted from coal burners "into rners, it was announced by company yesterday. These two vessels, along with several others operating out of Portland in various trades, were recently converted from oil burners into coal burners be cause of the scarcity of fuel oil. The change back to the original oil burning equipment will mean the dropping of ten men from the pay- roil ol each boat. Receipts of fuel oil at Portland over the week end have amounted to about 123,000 barrels. The steamer Frank suck of the Associated Oil corn- It pany arrived Sunday with full barrels. The tanker Richconcal, op erated by the supply and sales divi sion of the shipping board, also ar rived Sunday night with 25.000 bar rels of oiL The tank steamer Cap tain A. F. Lucas of the Standard Oil fleet arrived at her dock here yes terday afternoon with 30.000 barrels of fuel oil after leaving 10,000 bar rels at Astoria.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. (By the Associated Press.) Whisky smug gling into the United States has reached such proportions that it has brought In its wake a large illegal traffic in other commodities, it was learned today at the treasury depart ment. Officials have become so con cerned that they are considering a rearrangement of the government's coastal criminal-chasing arms. The customs service has found itself "wholly inadequate" to meet the sit uation, according to Assistant Secre tary Shouse. He declared customs officials were handicapped, "both In men and in money because of a re fusal by the last congress to appro priate funds." It would require a small army of I men to patrol the coast and border territories, Mr. Shouse said, but ha believed such a plan was the only solution. Mr. Shouse declared It waa no secret that vast quantities of liquor had been coming in, although customs officers had confiscated thousands upon thou sands of dollars' worth from ships. The larger supplies which officials believe have been smuggled in, how ever, have come not through ports but by landings of launches and small boats in secluded spots along the Atlantic coast. The Canadian border traffic declared not to compare with smuggling along the Atlantic was the FRIENDS PLEAD- FOR POET Wilson Asked to Intervene in San Domingo Case.

Sailed bids' are to be discussed Shipping Experts to Quiz Senator Jones on Measure. TACOMA. Waeh.( Aug. 9. (Spe cial.) Shipping experts and repre sentatives of all the larger Pacific coast ports will be in Tacoma tomor row to quiz Senator Wesley L. Jones on section -.5 ol tne mercnant marine act. Admiral W. S. Benson, chairman of the shipping boards assumes respon sibility for section 28. The shipping board recommended it to the Jones committee, he says, in a letter to W. T. Christesnen, Seattle port commissioner. Port representatives will protest against the bill at the Tacoma hear ing, as section 28 vitally afreets off shore shipping carried in foreign bot toms. Representatives of American lines probably will stand with Senator Jones in defense of the offending clause. Pacific coast ports assert that the law affects only shipping on this seaboard and that it will have the effect of driving foreign-owned ves sels, such as Japanese carriers, to Canadian ports, where they will not have to fight the barrier of a rail rate differential made in favor of goods carried in American bottoms. SHIPPING AGREEMENT LIKELY Adjustment of Pacific Ocean Rale Question Expected. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9. Japanese arid other foreign shipping interests will be asked to join with American shipping in what it is hoped will lead to an amicable and stable ad justment of the Pacific ocean rate question. Chairman Benson of the shipping board said today. I ersistent rumors have been abroad that the United States intended to cut rates on the Pacific, he said, but it is not the intention to cut rates arbit rarily as long as competition rests on a fair basis. There is plenty of business In the Marine Notes.
