18 THE SUNDAY OREGONI AN, PORTLAND, MAT 27, 1906. , ELDER iLL BE DOCKED TODAY .Captain Baker's Effort to Be Consummated at St. Johns This Morning. MANY WILL SEE THE SHIP KxcurhioiiisiM Will Go to Drydoek by Thousands to AYalcli Proceed ings Praise for Successful AVrccker Is General. . Captain W. H. Haktr's undertaking: Tvill be completed this morning, when " the steamer George ". Elder will be placed Iti the Fort of Portland drydoek, v and the contimt of the Michigan wrecker will then have been executed, iind he will he paid the stipulated $3.n'0 by the owner of the vessel, who fnuiranteert that sum to have the long suhmerged steamer placed" on the wa vs. Expecting that there will be a large crowd of sightseers Journey to St. Johns to witness the docking of the Elder, the Port of Portland! Commis sioner have practically decided to place her in the dock at the earliest - possible hour this morning, and there by avoid all possible danger of acci dents likely to be contingent on the gathering of numerous spectators, and in this decision Captain Baker, and Owner Peterson readily concurred, for they are anxious to get the craft out of her precarious situation while afloat as soon as possible. Pumps Kept Busy. Kver since she was lifted off the rocks after being submerged for over 16 months, the' pumps of the Elder have been kept running day and night, for the many breaks to her -plates .. . cause the vessel to leak considerably, and It has been found necessary to J ,Vump continually to free her of water. J ' The continual operation of the pumps 2 Jtas also served another purpose.in so 'far as it has assisted materially In freeing her hold of great quantities of Iter perishable cargo, which has been sucked out through the -pipes, and by the time site is placed on an even keel In the riryilock site will be practically free from all the freight with which she was loaded at the time of her de parture for San Francisco in January, isor,. All that remains of the vessel's car go are a few assortments of hardware, some pin ning--mill machinery, and a. few other tiniest ruct ible nrticles, which have been proof against the water during the time the vessel was on tlio rocks. These items In the ship's cargo will be landed on the dock, and wii! probably be auctioned off by J. H. . Peterson some time next week. "''- Kt-nuiln With Disabled Steamer. The steamers M. F. Henderson and Oklahoma remained with the disabled J craft during the night, and will assist in the docking of the vessel today, which proceeding will necessitate the preatest of care, owing to the. heavy list to starboard noticeable In the prcs fnt condition of the boat. Captain Maker and his crew of Like Michigan wreckers will be greatly re 1 loved when the vessel Is finally landed In the dork, for the strain they have ...... hf on undor during the two weeks they have labored at raising the wreck has been very heavy, and when their con- ul, tract is consummated they will earn a ...... much-needed rest. After resting from their labors for a few days. Captain ,',!' Haker and his men will return to their Michigan homes, whence they were :' . brought to raise the Klder. HiR Crowd Kxpeeted. " From tlio demands entered yesterday for steam lnunclies and other river craft It would seem that the supply will be entirely utilized today, for many of the ..craft will carry excursionists to St. Johns ""for the purpose of viewing the Elder In the drydoek. Many are expected to jour ney to tile scene on the street cars and j 'in anticipation of the crowd extra cars will be run during the morning and after- -noon. J. If. Peterson has promised a banquet to the successful wreckers, but Just when this event will take place he has not an nounced. . , . . . - (' Captain Huberts' Tribute. "' Captain J. Jt. Roberts, who is engaged in the wrecking business in Portland, and who succeeded in Moating the Colum bia River lightship No. 50 after hauling the vessel overland from North Head to Baker's Bay, is one of the most enthu siastic admirers of Captain Baker s feat In floating the FJder. Captain Roberts said: "1 can readily understand the strain ;V tinder which captain Baker is laboring, ,' ,y 3'cr he will not have a minute's peace uii ? . til the Klder is placed in the drydoek. I have been through several experiences of this kind in the pursuit of the wrecking business on this coast, and I tell you it is no easy matter to have a craft "afloat and depending entirely on centrifugal pumps to keep her afloat. It is exceed ingly hard on the nerves, and if he don't have some gray hairs when the Job Is llnished I miss my guess. All through . this undertaking he has used the most ; excellent judgment, and now that he Is . i .successful he is deserving of the greatest commendation. Put me down as one of the admirers of Baker of Michigan." JOXKS GOKS INTO THE RIVER ; t Deckhand on Orepona Is Drowned in Accident at Albany. ALBANY. Or., May Special.) H. Jones, deckhand en the steamer Oregona was drowned In top Willamette at Al bany this morning. While the boat was loading.

The safety rail caught the ""truck, but Jones went on Into the river, was swept down by "the swift current and drowned. All day efforts to recover the body were unsuccessful.

NEW CARS FOR LIMITED Rapid Development and Growing Tourist Travel Make w Train. Necessary New Schedule jn Effect June 10. ST. PACT May 26. General Passenger Agent Cleland. of the ' Northern Pacific Railroad, today announced improvements 4f EIJER WAITING TO ENTER THE DRY DOCK AT ST. JOKN8. In-the .Northern Pacific service Involving the purchase practically of ten new trains and the establishment of a service of three transcontinental trains dally in each direction between St. Paul and Minneap olis (with Duluth connections) and the Pacific Northwest. The changes will go into effect June 10. The equipment of the North Coast Lim ited trains is to be replaced with new cars, the observation cars excepted, and the equipment of all other through trains will undergo improvements. New dining cars of unique . design will replace the present equipment. Trains No. 3 - west bound and No. 4 astbound will be oper ated on an improved schedule, and will be given a much finer equipment. Trains No. 5 westbound and No. 6 eastbound are new transcontinental trains on the sched ule. With reference to the improvements, Mr. Cleland said: "The addition of another transconti nental train In each direction Is niade necessary by the rapid industrial and com mercial growth of the Pacific Northwest, the increasing population due to the de velopment of agricultural areas and re clamation work, and the increase of tour ist travel and passenger business natural ly resulting. The Pacific Northwest Is making rapid strides, and interest in this section and travel to it are great. The new service will meet these demands. "Thousands will visit the Columbia Riv er region, the Puget Sound country, the Irrigated districts and Yellowstone Park this year, and the improvements are nec essary because of this fact." INSPECTS W ORK FOR THE ROAD President Elliott Pleased With Pro gress for Bridges. President Howard Elliott and party of Northern Pacific officials will leave Port land this morning by special train for Tacoma, and St. Paul. The president of the Hill line expected to leave yesterday for the Sound, but so many matters of detail had to be Jpoked after that he did not get away. W President Elliott inspected the prelim inary work on the Willamette River bridge for the Portland & Seattle yester day morning, and in the afternoon went to Vancouver, where the party visited the Officers' Club and conferred with the Hill engineers who have charge of the building of the Portland & Seattle and of the construction of the Columbia River bridge. The rapid progress being made on the Columbia River bridge was commented upon favorably by President Elliott, and the preparations being made for active work on the Willamette bridge also met his approval. .Late in the afternoon the party returned from Vancouver and dined at the Portland, where Mr. Elliott was in touch with J. Couch Flanders and other local representatives of the new Hill line. A conference on legal matters occupied most of the evening. Mr, Elliott's visit has cleared the sit uation of many pending matters of de tail, and his visit is supposed to have been prompted by the desire to get into touch personally with the heads of the construction of the new line. From his headquarters In St. Paul, he can now di rect the work intelligently. Will Begin Summer Work. Commencing next month, the Astoria & Columbia River Railway will com mence Its Saturday afternoon train serv- ice, running through to Seaside. This is the usual Summer service, but during the coming season the trip to the beach will be made in much less time than formerly, about an hour being clipped off the sched ule by cutting out 24 stops along the line that the Saturday afternoon train has formerly made. The train will run straight through this Summer with only four stops en route. Leaving here at 3 P. M the Saturday afternoon- train will reach Seaside at 6:30 In the evening. For merly the Saturday beach train left Port land at 2:30 P. M. and arrived at Seaside at 6:50. ' - - . Hale Touring-Car Illusions. - Truly wonderful Is the illusion fur nished by the Hale Touring Car this week. One takes his. seat in a palace car on a train that is apparently going 40 miles an hoor for a ride over the Cas cade Mountains, enjoying all the sensa tions of a regular train. AH of a sudden you are brought to a. halt. There in front of you is a giant rotary snowplow en gaged in removing 15 feet of snow, throw ing the snow In all directions, and the illusion in eo perfect that many dodge in their seats to escape being covered with snow. Then the ride through to Shasta. Springs and Sacramento Valley over the S. P. R. R. Is most enjoyable indeed. California Trains Belated. All California trains will be late today on account of a second landslide on the Southern Pacific at Cantera. "While crews of workmen were digging away the land slide that occurred two days ago, the track was again buried at 7:30 last night by another slide that will require some time to remove. Four delayed overland trains will reach Portland this afternoon about 3:30 o'clock and will Include this morning's train. Tonight's train will be delayed indefinitely. Reduced Charge for Icing Fruit Cars The Armour refrigerator car lines an nounce a general reduction In the price of icing cars loaded with green fruit from all California points to Portland. The reduction is a general one and deciduous fruits from all parts of California can now be shipped to this city for $3 less than formerly, this amount having been cut off the charges for icing the cars . f t t.: x : . ; y I ' ! i "'ii:. .:r ;.-'!5. while in transit. The cars carry about 24,000 pounds and the reduction amounts to about 2 cents a hundred pounds. The new charges will become effective at once. . Honors for Brooklyn School. A note to Miss A. L. Dimiek, principal from the ' George Wrright Women's Relief Corps, announces that the corps will present the school with an oleograph to the stars and stripes next Tuesday afternoon.
