APRIL GRAIN FLEE
Shipments for Tenth Month
- ' of the Season.
TOTAL NEARLY TWELVE MILLIONS
Shipments Last Month Were Re
stricted by Delayed. Vessel Xe-rrs
From. Whalers Marine JTotes.
The non-Trival of three big grain-car'
riera vbich had been chartered for April
loading kept the -wheat shipments for the
munch closing: yesterday down to rather
modest proportions. But four cargoes of
wheat and one cargo of flour cleared for
Europe, and the combined ehipments fo
the month, flour included, -were but 92S,
436 bushels. 53rfs showing Is sufficiently
good, however, to bring the total ship
ments from Portland tor the first 10
months of the cereal year up to 11,756,188
bushels. During the same period, Portland,
Seattle and Tacoma together have shipped
(flour included) 6,243,963 bushels of wheat.
Through the inability to secure steamers
when needed, Portland's flour exports for
the season have been restricted, and the
total to date Is slightly under that of lat
season. The Sound flour shipments are
larger than those of last year.
That Portland has made a. distinct gain
over Sound cities on the season's wheat
shipments to date is shown in the figures
for the current cereal year to date, com
pared with those for the same period last
year. From July 1, 1S9S, to May 1, 1S99,
Portland snipped 10.32S.2j0 bushels of
wheat, and Seattle and Tacoma shipped
6.U9.5S4 bushels. From July 1, 18S9. to
May 1. 1900, Portland has shipped 7,787.542
bushels, while Seattle and Tacoma have
shipped but 2.70S.954 bushels. The less of
the Axmie Thomas and the delayed arrival
of the East African and the Lydgote are
not the only factors in making the April
snowing smaller than that of Its prede
cessor, for the shipments for "the month
suffered by the diversion of the Braemar
to Victoria, instead of coming direct to
Portland. The Braemar will clear today
with nearly 50.000 barrels of flour. This,
with the three or 'goes mentioned, would
swell the April business to the extent oi
over halt a million bushels. However,
Portland will handle this wheat, and If
there are no more dclaja In the arrival
of ships, we will take up some more of
the sho'tege, compared with last year's
business, in the remaining two months of
the cerea. year.
The total shipments of wfoeat and flour
from the Pacific Northwest for the season
to date are 18,006,150 bushels, compared
with 23.198,607 bushels fcr a corresponding
date last year and 26.524.4S1 bushels for
the same period for the season of 1897-98.
SPRIXG SEASOX EXDED.
Victoria Sealers Fared Better Than?
Last Year.
Tho members of thrs sealing fleet are
woll awa7 'roiu the Coast now, says Sun
day's Victoria Colonist, as indicated by all
the recent reports from their general stop
ping points. Captain Cole, of the Ocean
Rover (w(ho returned from a crew-signing
trip to the West Coast yesterday),
reporting but one of the Victoria -vessels
in Vancouver Island seaboard waters. This
is tho 1899 top-liner Favorite. Captain
Lachlan McLean, which was off Hesquolt
on the 14th Inst., with &00 pelts. The Viva,
Captain McPhee, has been reported off
the Oregon Coast, with 635 skins, on the
20th Inst.. an1 the Umbrino at the some
date and In the same locality had CC7.
Tho Carrie C. W.. has not had as good
fortune as the other mentioned schoon
er, a lost hunter from her crew, who
recently reached Euchidet, reporting the
seltooncr witn but 123 skins on the 2d Inst.
There must always be some in a scaling
season who escape the luck, but the gen
eral average this year for the Coast hunt
ing schooners, whose operations terminate
on Tuet5d-. next, has been quite satisfac
tory., much better indeed than last year's.
QVEEX CHARLOTTE ISLAND WRECK
Shipping Men Believe It Is the
Schooner American Girl.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 30. The
wrecked vessel on the coast of Queen
Charlotte Island, reported at Vancouver,
B C. byvCapta!n Joyce, of the shipping
steamer New England, is undoubtedly the
three-masted schooner American Girl,
which sailed from this city October 8 and
was never again heard from. The Ameri
can Girl answers to the description given
of the wreck, and is the only vessel of
tho Coast fleet that was rigged as stated
that has not been accounted for. Captain
George Ewaxt. who was in, command of
tho bark Colusa, which was abandoned off
the Northern, Coastt says that It is his
opinion that the derelict was the Ameri
can Girl. The Colusa was In company
with the schooner during the middle of
November, and the same southeast gale
that drove the Colusa miles out of her
course and toward the Alaska short must
have played havoc with the American
Girl. Captain Ross was in command of
the American Girl when she left here for
Port Gamble. He had a crew of eight
men with him.

IX SUPREME COURT.
Case' of Sam Mackin Afralnst Port
land Gas Company.
In the suit of Sam Mackin against tli
Portland Gas Company, a demurrer to
the complaint was overruled by Judge
Sears yesterday, and the defendant Is to
answer after the Supreme Court decides
a former case. The csso before the Su-,
preme Court is an appeal from a decision
of the lower court in & mandamus pro
ceedlng. wherein Judge Sears held that
the company must furnish Mackln gas,
notwithstanding it claimed he owes a bill
of 55 for gas furnished at a former place
of business conducted by him. Mackin
run an oyster house on Fourth street,
and the- company shut off bis gas because
hs declined to pay a bill for gas used in a
place occupied by him on Morrison street.
He alleges he sold out and does not owe
the bill. Judge Sears did not Investigate
the merits of the claim, but decided that
Mackin was entitled to have gas supplied
to him. Thq company is not willing to
have Its rules thus sot aside, and so has
invoked an opinion on. the question by the
Supreme Court.
In the meantime. Mackin nas disposed
of his last place of business and recently
sued the gas company or large damages,
alleging that his failure to procure gas
forced him to relinquish his place to an
other who can get. It.

Southern Pacific Company, to recover
damages on account of a horse which was
run over by a train of the defendant on
Moody street near Woods, bids fair lo be
stubbornly contested. The answer of the
company charges that the horse was run
ning at large on a public street, contrary
to the provisions of the city ordinance.
It is alleged that the accident was caused
by the negligence of the owner.
The reply of Eaton denies these allega
tions, and says his loss was occasioned
because the track of the defendant at
this point Is not fenced. Eaton avers
that Moody street, where the occurrence
took place. Is not a public street, and
never was opened up or used as a public
road or highway, and it is Impossible for
teams or vehicles to go upon the same,
and there is no sidewalk for pedestrians.
It Is asserted that the street Is elevated
three or four feet above the level of the
ground. The land In Caruthers" addl-
tlon contiguous it is alleged, was never
laid off in lots and blocks, as shown by
the plat. This land. It is stated, was
leased to Robert B. Ludwig for a pastur
age for horses, and the right to plaintiff
to depasture his horse was granted to him
by Ludwig on payment of $1 50 per month.
Eaton avers that his horse wandered on
the track, and it all happened by reason
of the track not being properly fenced.

UNPATENTED MINING CLAIMS
Basis of Rlehts of Aliens In. Relation
Thereto.
Mining and Scientific Press (San Francisco.)
The United States mining law. In terms,
confines the right of location of mineral
lands to citizens of the United States, or
t-nn -n-Thn i-iv declared their intention to
v..rmo ciiMi. Tt- does not necessarily fol
low that the acquisition of a (unpatented)
mining claim by an auen. euner ay jjui
.! nr location, is void. On the con
trary, the title of an alien to such land
Is only voidable and wnlie 01 recora in
the alien the land covered thereby Is segre
gated from tho public domain. A claim so
held does not, ipso facto, escheat to tho
Government, and third parties cannot In
vest themselves with the right of the Gov
ernment to the extent of dispossessing an
alien of his holdings. The question of
alienage cannot be raised collaterally, be
cause the paramount title to the land Is in
the United States, and a third party has
no right to complain, In a collateral pro
ceeding. If the Government does not en
force Its prerogative. This doctrine Is
supported by section 910 of the United
States Revised Statutes, which Is as fol
lows: "No possessory action between persons
In any court of the United States, for
the recovery of any mining title, or for
damages to any such title, shall be affect
ed by the fact that the paramount title
to the land In which such mines lie Is In
the United States, but each case shall bo
adjudged by the law of possession."
The question of the right of an alien
to hold an unpatented mining claim must
therefore be determined either in proceed
ings Instituted by the "Government, techni
cally termed "Inquest of office found," or
m proceedings based upon an application
for patent. In a suit adverse to such an
application the question of the alienage
of either party to such suit may be raised
In the trial court by either of them as
In right and on behalf of the Government;
or, further, by the Land Department in
the due course of the patent proceedings
upon Its own motion or at the suggestion
of a third party, who need have no direct
interest in the matter.
The question being properly raised, its
effect may bo avoided by the naturaliza
tion of the alien at any time before judg
ment in judicial proceedings or final action
by the department in patent proceedings,
as naturalization Is of a retroactive effect,
so as to be deemed a waiver of all liability
to forfeiture and a confirmation of title.
In other words, an alien claimant can
hold as against all the world save the
Government of the United States, and
even as against the Government itself un
til divestiture of title Is had in due and
proper proceedings In a court of competent
jurisdiction or In the Land Department.
In the latter case, however, action can
be taken only when it is sought to se
cure patent for the land, as that depart
ment has no official information of the
existence of a mining claim until patent is
applied for.
Hence, a mining claim located by an
alien is not. subject to relocation merely
because of such fact; neither does the
transfer of an unpatented mining claim to
an alien, which was located or held by a
person competent under the express terms
of the mining law to appropriate or hold
the same, work an abandonment of such
claim; nor Is the title of a qualified person
to such property affected by the fadt that
his title was derived from an alien loca
tor, provided that In making the location
the latter complied with tHe statutory law
and the local rules and customs necessary
to make the location, and has maintained
the claim by due representation thereof
until tho time of it3 transfer to the citizen.
ANSWER TO OUTSIDE SHOPS
Allied Printing: Trades Council
Makes a Statement.
The Allied Printing Trades Council Is
sues the following statement In reply to
a circular sent out by outside printing
offices concerning their request to candi
dates that political printing be done in
shops entitled to use the union label:
"Whatever difference of opinion there
might still exist In regard to labor unions,
it has not and cannot successfully be
denied that the tendency of trades-unionism,
as a whole, is for the greatest good
to the greatest number. Those wage
workers who. out of short-sightedness
and ignorance, refuse to Join trade or
ganizations, are themselves to blame if
they are compelled to submit to tho mis
erable conditions resulting from long
hours and low wages.
"An election Is now approaching, and,
as usual, a great deal of printing is be
ing done for political candidates, etc The
Allied Printing Trades Council of Port
land, consisting of Multnomah Typo
graphical Union and the Printing Press
men's Union, issued a circular. In which
is given the names of offices which com
ply with the rules of above-mentioned
organizations. A copy of these circulars
-was- addressed to each -candidate for
office ia this city and county. The state-ments-which-aro
set forth in. this -circular
can 'be verified "by every rperson who is
unbiased and wishes to investlgatd."
"Of course, a3 Is usual in such cases,
some of the firms which do not employ
union laborers, but who are always anx
ious to take advantage of anything for
which, unionists haver fairly fought and
won, have also Issued a circular, which
Is supposed to be a repry and to rep
resent 'two sides.'
"This 'reply' contains a list of firms,
some of which have been placed there
without the knowledge and consent of the
respective parties; publications which do
not print political advertising are Insert
ed. Many of these publications are print
ed In one office, but enumerated sepa
rately. All this Is undoubtedly done to
moke the public and candidates believe
that It represents, as claimed, 'over 1000
votes.' This 'reply,' which is supposed to
represent the sentiments of 'a few respon
sible American citizens' (who evidently
forgot to sign their names), does not at
tempt to disprove the statements as set
forth in the circular of. the Allied Print
ing Trades Council, but instead of that it
refers to the 'agitators' .and 'walking del
egates,' who represent only about '40
votes.'
"The truth is that most of the offices
of these 'responsible American citizens'
employ tho cheapest help which they can
procure. Of their help many are minora
of both sexes, who ought to be at school.
Others, again, never employ any one, but
do all their work themselves.
"Leaving out the names of those who
have been put on this list without their
knowledge, and taking into consideration
the fact that many of the publications
mentioned are issued from one office, the
question arises: Where do the 1000 votes'
come from?
"The Allied Printing Trades Council of
Oregon Is backed up by the Portland
Federated Trades Assembly, which holds
a charter from, the American Federation
of Labor. Its members are also respon
sible American citizens, who pay their
debts, their taxes, and besides are trying
to better their condition and the condi
tion of their fellow men through tho
mean3 of trades unions In the Industrial
field, and the ballot In the political arena.
"In the 'reply,' It Is, furthermore, stated
that 'this is not a fight against union
labor,' and that they 'employ union men
and.pay them -union-. wages whoneverthey
have occasion to hire' helpi' Ndw, this
can certainly mean only one of two things,
viz., these 'gentlemen' never employ any
help at all only 'occasionally, or, they
employ union men when they cannot get
cheap help.
"They, .furthermore, state that 'they
simply desire to show the public there
are two sides to this question,' and an
attempted 'graft' end Tilackmair on one
of said sides.
"This, of course. Is, on tho face of It,
ridiculous and merely begging the ques
tion. If these gentlemen do not Intend
to fight union labor, all they have to do
to prove their assertions Is to employ
union men and live up to union rules,
not only "whenever they have occasion
to hire help,' but at all times. Since they
refuse to do it. the Allied Printing Trades
Council Is compelled to use every and any
honorable and legal means for the pro
tection of its members. We leave it to
the public to decide as to the justice of
the step taken by the Allied Printing
Trades Council, and when election day
comes around, the citizens of Portland
and this state will undoubtedly hear from
organized labor in no unmistakable
voice."
