IS THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, rOItTIiAND, FEBRUAJRV JL, 1D06. LITTLE NOPE FOR LUMBER CARRIER Shipping Men Believe Heavily Laden British Bark Drumcraig Lost. LAST SEEN OFF THE BAR X.cft rortand September 22 for Ma nila in Charge of Captain Nicl McCIallam Grew "Was Signed llcrc. "With reinsurance at SO per cent there is aiow llttlo liopc or tlie British hark Drum cralg ever reaching Manila. Shipping men in 'this city and along: the Coast are of the opinion that the vessel has met her fate and that she will never again, be heard from except, perhaps, as a .derelict drifting- aimlessly about, a menace to navigation. The Drum craig left Portland September 22. with MASCOT OF SHIPYARD VTCAM2R BEAVER AS SHE HIT THE WATER AM) R. CROAWFORD. WHO CHRISTENED HER, 71. Croawtord. mascot of the Portland Shipbuilding Company, broke the bottle of champsipte over the bow f the sew uleamar Bavor as ho started on the ways ycatcrday arternoon and It was with a mighty swine that the kadmcly rteooratcl bottle landed against hc timbers. Croawford Is a colored man. 77 years of arc. and backed by a history dat Ins back to the times of tslavcry. He is also a natural-born orator and this Is what he paid in christening the craft: THe power cstod in my hand, I. R. Croawford. name this steamer the Beaver, f Portland. Oregon. The Beaver was built for the Clatskanlc Transportation Company and will be ready to ro Into oemmiuiten In aWat two weeks. She will operate between Portland and Clatskanlc and Captain Victor Depemedt will be In oemmasd. Th Beaver is a low draft stcamor. but commodious and with a blf; capacity for frelRht. Sfce is exceptionally wot! planned for excursion work. Hor dimensions are: Length, 133 eel; beam, 30 feet; depth of hold. 0 feet. :i caro of lumber, for the Philippine Inlands, and since thou not a word has been received from .her. So far as known, she has boon spoken by none of the many craft that ply the big ocoan. and the belief that she has j?onc to the bottom is rapidly . -pralnlrip; ground. On September 1G the Drumcraig; signed a new crew before British Con sul James Laidhiw at this port. Cap- STEA.MER INTELLIGENCE. Due to Arrive. Steamer From. Date. Roanoke.

Captain McClallam gave up tho sea several years ago, but Anally concluded to re turn to the more adventurous life of his younger days, and accepted tho offer if the owners of the Drumcraig, who are San Francisco people. Following are the mimes of the ofh tcrs and crew who signed on at Port land: Kiel McClallam. captain; ' F. W. Cheekier, first, mate; Jlj Gillies, second mate; J. Terry, carpenter; J.'E. Stafford, "W. Holme, aiinsuko ' Kagato, Franlc Soaros. 11. Ostcrnaok, Herbert Potter, J. McClellan, George Butter, H. Thomp son, Owen O'Neil, O. H. Lamm, Franlc luUer, John McConncll. Julius Hess, F. Frcdricks, T. Strelenbert and Guy Duckett, able seamen; N. Barry, cook and steward, and T. CockIc, cabin boy. The fate of these men, In case of the vessel being lost. Is a matter for con jecture. Possibly they might have put away In boats and landed on oneof the many islands or coral reefs that rleo out of the depths of the sea for hun dreds and hundreds of miles across the path to the Philippines. Even If this should prove the case It may be long before they are heard from, if at all. Another case attracting- almost as much attention is that of the British ship Bar dowlo, which left Ncwcastle-on-Tyne for Portland, via San Francisco, February 17 of last year. In less tlian a week she will have been out a whole year. Although she was heard from last August, when' she sailed from Cape Town, after having her rigging repaired. Five months Is a long voyage from South Africa to this coast, and speculators arc gambling on her safe arrival, reinsurance being quoted at 5J5 ir cent. The rate will advance qulc'kjy unless the vessel is heard from soon, and there are not a few who believe that the Bardowlc stands no better chanco of ever reaching: port than the Drumcraig. The Bardowle brings general cargo, con signed to Meyer, Wilson Sc. Co. Several long passages havo been made between European ports and the Pacific Coast, and shipping men yesterday re called the tedious voyage of the British ship Hospodorv, which in the '80s spent IS months covering the distance Irom Lon don to San Francisco. She. too. was dis masted in rounding Capo Horn, .and put into Ancud, a small port in Chile. Find ing no facilities there for repairing her rigging, her first officer made his way in one of the ship's boats to Valparaiso for assistance, and a tug was sent south to take the Hospodore'ln tow. The first offi cpr's performance was looked upon as .one of the most daring in the annals of mari time affairs, for ho had to cover many hundreds of miles of dangerous water, with a Jagged coast close at hand. Alliance Goes on Drydock. The steamer Alliance arrived from Eu reka and Coos Bay last night after a smooth passage. She brought 40 passcn-. gcrs and considerable freight. She will be given her annual overhauling this trip and is not expected to get away before the 21st of this months Coming up the river last night fire drill. was sounded and the lifeboats were manned in good order. The passengers enjoyed the excitement. Sea Jjlon Returns Without Tow. ASTORIA. Or., Fob. 30. (Special.)

This Is the vessel which was towed from San Francisco to save her charter, and being castadrift off Cape Flattery battled with nasty weather for ton days before being again picked up. Meantime the charter date had passed and the vessel was subsequently ordered to proceed to Australia In ballast. The vosscl was to have sailed last night, when the crew refused to go to sea unless Captain Charrler loaded aJ 'ditional bnllast. The vessel now has 1353 tens on board, which Is accounted more, than sufficient by local ship ping men. Rothschild & Co.. general agents for the vessel, have called on French Consul Roche, of Seattle, to comu hero and handle the difficulty. Roche will arrive Sunday.

James McCrca. NEW STEAMER BEAVER first, vice-president of the Pennsylvania. Companj', operating the lines of the Penn sylvania System west of Pittsburg, made a statement today to the Associated Press denying the charges contained in the. let ter of Governor Dawson, of "West .Vir ginia, to Senator Tillman, which was read in the United Stales Senate Monday. Mr. McCrca said: "The Pennsylvania Railroad is not and never lias been an owner or miner of bituminous coal, cither directly or indi rectly, and therefore could not have in fluenced West Virginia, in which it Is interested, to suppress development of that state to protect its own coal Interests. Certainly there has becn.no prompting upon tho part of the Pennsylvania in re gard to the Red Rock case, or any othor similar case." Jeremiad About Iron Supply. CHICAGO, Feb. lO.-One hundred years will probably see the exhaustion of the world's present iron or-p Jrourecs, accord ing to Dr. C. Kenneth Lclth, professor of geology In the University p "Wiscon sin, who lectured last night on the sub ject baforc the Geological Society. Ac cording to Professor Lllh. the present known deposit of high-grade oro in the United Slates will be exhausted in a com paratively short period of Umc, and then the low-grade deposits will be drawn upon, with tho result of changing tho geographical location of the great steel and Iron plants of the country. "It is probable that the entry of low grade ores into the iron industry will lvavc the effect of bringing the furnaces nearer the base of supply," said Dr. Lolth, "and this means the removal of the Iron centers from Pittsburg and other Eastern points to Chicago and points farther wcsL There arc deposits of low grade oro in Colorado and Wyoming, but it will be many years before Uxey will become factors of commercial Import ance."
