Three Biff German Vcsela Due From
Yokohama Steamer Hawaiian
Damaged-Marine Xotes.
The German ship Nereus arrived up yes
terday afternoon, making an even half
dozen ships in the river for May loading,
with at least half a dozen more due
by the middle of the month. The Haw
thornbank, which Is fully due from Mol
lendo, will probably get in by May 1, and
there are three ships from Yokohama
which would not be cracking any records
if they arrived before that date. The
three due from Yokohama are all under
the German flag, and at least two of
them are very fast ships. As they all
sailed from the other side about the
same time, there is a prospect for a race
on the way over. The big bark Magda
lene, better known under her old name,
Trade Winds, got away first, sailing
from Yokohama March 30, while the Na
jade was but two days behind her, and
the Alsterschwan but four days later.
The Vimeria is out over 40 days from
Hong Kong, and may be expected at any
time. As all of these ships snould reach
Portland this month or very early in
May, the fleet for that month will be
much larger than usual.

P. &. O. Liner "Wrecked. .
LONDON, April 26. Advices have been
received here that the Peninsular & Orien
tal steamer Sabroan, which left Shanghai
April 23, went ashore on Tong YIng in a
dense fog on April 24. Her malls and
passengers were landed by Chinese junks
at Foo Chow. The Sabroan was
launched in 1900. She is reported to be
in a critical position.
Later advices say it is expected that
the Sabroan will become a total wreck.
All of her compartments are full of
water. The crew has been landed.
The Hawaiian Damaged.
The new round-the-Horn liner Ha
waiian, which arrived at San Francisco
a few dys ago, struck a rock while
going through the Straits of Magellan,
and tore a hole about 10 feet square In
her bottom. She was placed in the dry
dock for repairs, and If she is not de
clared a "constructive total loss" by the
underwriters, will proceed to Honolulu
and load sugar for New York. Ope of
the big steamships of this line will come
to Portland with cargo during the Summer.
America Extends a Little Recipro
city to England.
WASHINGTON, April 26. Inquiry into
the protest cabled from London of Sir
Christopher Furness, head of the Fur
ness line of steamers, that tonnage dues
are charged in the ca.se of British vessels
entering American ports while Dutch and
French vessels enter free, discloses the
fact that tonnage dues are Imposed upon
British shipping entering American ports
because the British levy a corresponding
duty on American shipping under the
guise of lighthouse dues. The act of
June IS, 1886, authorizes the President to
suspend the collection of tonnage duee
on ve&sels from countries which do not
impose fees or dues or any kind on
United States shipping. If tne British
Government will remit the lighthouse du
ties it may secure the adavntages in the
remission of tonnage dues on British
shippng in American ports, as are en
Joyed by a number of other countries,
including even some of the British de
pendencies such as the West Indies.
German shipping is not in a like posi
tion with that of British shipping be
cause the German Government imposes
not lighthouse duties, but another class
of treasury duties which our Government
.has hUd to be of a character to pre
vent Germany from claiming the benefits
of the law of 1896.
STEAMSHIP MAXAGERS.
An Association Formed at San Fran
cisco. SAN FRANCISCO, April 26. The
Steamship Managers' Association was
formed here today. It Includes every
steamship line of importance on the Pa
"clflc. JL P. Schwerin, of the Pacific Mail,
was elected chairman of the association.
The question of co-operation and uni
formity of action upon matters pertain
ing to the conduct of steamship business
on the Pacific Coast was discussed pro
and con and a definite understanding was
reached.
V'There is one thing that we will cer
tainly do," said one of the shipowners
after the meeting, "and that is to protect
ourselves against the unreasonable de
mands of other organizations. This is the
strongest- combination of shipping: inter
ests ever formed on the Coast, and we
shall try to put steamshipplng on an
equitable basis for every one concerned."
Another meeting of the new associa
tion will be held next week, when the
question of bringing in the lines with
headquarters on Puget Sound will be discussed.
Thinks Colorado Can Be Saved.
VANCOUVER, April 26. The steamer
Amur arrived here tonight from Skag
way. Captain Gosse reports that when
he passed the barge Colorado, which ran
aground in the Wrangel Narrows, the
stern and most of the vessel was under
water. She had not, however, broken her
back, as was previously reported. Cap
tain Gosse thinks that she can be float
ed without much difficulty, and all her
cargo of concentrates saved.

Sealing: Schooner Returns to
"With Hard-Luck Story.
VICTORIA, B. a, April 26 The sealing
schooner Enterprise arrived tonight with
Tier flag half-masted, she being the first
of the fleet to return. She had only 183
skins, and reports that the season has
been a bad one, the weather being too
bad to allow of many lowerlngs.
While in Drake's Bay, two of her hunt
ersLeonard Burr, of Buffalo, and Frank
'Irvine, of Victoria were drowned, and
William Holmberg had died when oft Flat
tery. With his remains in her .stern boat,
the schooner had come back before the
season closed.
On the 20th InsL, the schooner narrow
ly escaped destruction by a waterspout,
which was first seen three miles to lee
ward and broke quite close to the vessel.
Three schooners were spoken, all with low
catches.

amount of "talk" that was Indulged In on
the Portland water front before the two
ships sailed from Portland. Both of the
ships are now out over 110 days, and as
the Muskoka went "home in 101 days,
without any bets on the side, It would
seem that the flyers ought to be showing
up on the other side. The Muskoka is
the first and only one of the Decem
ber ships that has arrived out at Eu

Leicester Castle, has not yet put in an
appearance. The average passages of the
Heet this season are much behind those

Will Improve Salem Dock.
SALEM, Or., April 26. The Oregon City
Transportation Company will make ex
tensive Improvements on its dock in this
city, enlarging the wharf and making an
easier grade from the street to the dock.
NEW YORK, April 28. R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow
will say:
"Business continues brisk for the sea
son in the face of some, drawbacks whioh
at times might cause marked hesitation.'
Chief of these is the floods In many di
rections, which have Interfered with rail
road operations and Interrupted the dis
tribution of merchandise) and the weather
all over the East has been adverse to
an Increase of retail trade. Bank clear
ings, however, show that while specu
lation has been heavy there must have
been a well-sustained volume of legiti
mate business. Railroad earnings make
encouraging gains. Reports from the in
terior show special strength In condi
tions through Missouri, Kansas and Ohio,
and the future is full of promise, unless
there Is misfortune with the crops.
"Much unfavorable comment has ap
peared regarding the advance in steel
rails to ?28. Yet the change Is only In
keeping with recent Increases In price's
of pig Iron and billets. Nominal quota
tions for many products of Iron and steel
have long been disregarded in contracts
calling .for early delivery, and list prices
are generally moving up to a representa
tive level. On new business or export
orders it i3 not unreasonable to make
prices for rails on a parity with other
products of this Industry. It is reported
from Pittsburg that mills are not crowd
ed' by demand to the extent noticed in
1S99,. but, productive capacity haslargely
expanded. '
"After a prolonged period of waiting for
definite 'crop news, the cereal markets
suddenly awoke to unusual activity. Much
of the Increased trading and sharp ad
vance in prices resulted from clever ma
nipulating by a single Western specu
lator, who compelled the short. contin
gent to cover May corn contracts at the
highest prices of the season. Wheat has
risen sharply, partly In sympathy with
corn, but there was bad- news regarding
the German crop and some damage oc
curred at the West.
"Wool Is fairly steady, and this Is the
best that can be said. Eastern mar
kets are quiet, with light demand from
the mills. There is less disposition to
secure raw material in advance of need3,
although much faith Is expressed regard
ing the stability of prices. Reports from
many correspondents in chief sheeprais
ing .states indicate that a larger clip
than last year may be expected and that
the conditions are satisfactory. Growers
are' slow to make contracts at the pres
ent level of prices, but large percentage
of the old crop carried over and heavy
stocks at the East give little encourage
ment to hope for higher 'prices until de
mand. for manufactured goods shows ma
terial improvement.

SEATTLE, April 26. The Alaska Steam
ship Association, embracing the four
lines from Puget Sound ports and two
from Canadian ports, trading with South
eastern Alaska, came to an end today.
The principal cause of the rupture was
the demand of the Canadian lines that the
American members refrain from com
peting for Canadian business. This was
jrefused and the dissolution resulted. A
strong cut In rates is looked for as an
immediate result.

An Indignant Visitor Was Welcome
to the Editor's Sanctum.
Anecdotes of Horace Greeley are not
very numerous these days, but here is ono
that Is thoroughly characteristic of the
man, and has neved before been told: Of
fended by a pungent article that had ap
peared in the columns of the New York
Tribune, a gentleman called at that of
fice and Inquired for the editor. He was
shown Into a small sanctum, where Hor
ace Greeley sat, with his head close down
to his "paper, writing very rapidly. The
man began by saying: "Is this Mr.
Greeley?" "Yes. sir; what do you want?"
said the editor quickly, without looking
up from his paper. The Irate visitor "then
began using his tongue, with no refer
ence to the rules of propriety, good breed
ing or reason. Mr. Greeley meanwhile
continued to write. Page after page was
finished with no change of features and
without the slightest attention being paid
to th,e visitor.
Finally, after the most Impassioned
scold!ng( ever poured out in an editor's
office the' angry man became disgusted and
abruptly turned to leave the room. Then
for the first time Mr. Greeley quickly
looked up, rose from his chair and, slap
pling the gentleman familiarly on his
shoulder, In a pleasant tone of voice said:
"Don't" go friend; sit down, sit down and
free your mind; it will do you good you
will feel better for It. Besides, It helps
me to think what I am to write about.
Don't go."

There is no cause for surprise in the
announcement that the Pan-American ex
position at Buffalo will not be opened until
three weeks later than the date originally
agreed upon. This appears to be the rule
with all great shows and fairs in tnis
country. However liberal the allowance
of time may be It is usually found to be
inadequate to the performance of the
work. Associated with such enterprises
there is a vast amount of labor which
it seems impossible to complete with
out some delay, though the ultimate re
sults almost, without exception, attone for
the disappointment that may be experi
enced over postponements and insufficien
cies in the beginning.

Review of Transactions of the Week
Early Dealings Were "Very
Nervous.
NEW YROK, April 26. The stock mar
ket today was more quiet and orderly
than on any day during the week. There
were a few stocks which showed positive
strength, practically without interruption
all day, and there were no points of acute
weakness nor any period of a general dis
position to sell, except for the opening dip
in Amalgamated Copper and American
Smelting, due to the legal measures taken
to frustrate the absorption of other prop
erties contemplated by those companies.
Owing to tomorrow's holiday on account
of the removal of the board-room appa
ratus from the present building to the
temporary quarters in the Produce Ex
change, there was a disposition to curtail
speculative ventures and to close up ac
counts. From the firm tendency of the
market it looked as though the bears were
the ones who were most Inclined to cover
their contracts. The bulls were not ag
gressive, but their tactics seemed designed
either to protect the market or to hold
prices firm. There was some confusion
about the board-room, owing to the prep
arations for the moving.
The principal strength in the market
persisted in about the same quarters as
for some time past, namely, in the grang
ers and Pacifies. Northern Pacific was
most largely dealt in, and rose an extreme
3V4, but Burlington advanced to record
'price; Rock Island rose 2 and Northwest
ern 44, Pennsylvania selling ex-rights and
Baltimore & Ohio continued strong. Union
Pacific was not active, as on previous
days of the week, and there was large
realizing going on in it all day, but tne
stock was held above last night during
the greater part of the day, although It
closed a shade off. Among the specialties.
Sugar rose 3, Tobacco 2, Colorado Fuel
3, General Electric 3, New York Air
Brake 10 points, and a number of other
specialties from 1 to 2 points. The Colo
rado and Southern stocks were notably
strong at advances of Z to 3.
The confidence that tomorrow's bank
statement would make a strong showing
had much to do with sustaining the mar
ket. The receipts of cash from the In
terior have offset to a large extent the
absorption by the Subtreasury, Including
the payments for the gold exported, so

"Dear Mrs. Pinkham: When I began the use of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was suffering terribly. At
times tne pain was almost more
than I could stand- My heart
would nearly stop beatingand
1 would get cold and numb.
" Jfy husband thought
many times I was dyng
and did not dare to
leave me alone. I also
suffered severely at
times of menstruation.
" I had tried several
doctors and they told
me that they haa done
all thatmedicine could
do. In the face of all
this, and to the aston
ishment of my family
and friends, your reme
dies cured me. I am now
well and do the work for
eieht in the family. I feel
verv orateful for mv recovered i
health, and constantly recommend
your medicine.1 Mrs. Carrie Bellville, Ludington, Mich.
The record of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
written in thousands of such letters as Mrs. Bellville's. "When during
its whole career of thirty years no physician has to our knowledge
criticised this medicine adversely, and thousands are daily pre
scribing it in their practice, should you, who know less about medi
cine than they, say, " Oh, I do not believe it Is any good " ?
Mrs. Pinkham advises women free of charge. Her address is
Lynn, Mass. No woman knows the truth about women's ills as
thoroughly as Mrs. Pinkham, and no medicine in the world has
done so much good as

not lose more than $500,000 on the week
on all accounts. Next week money will
have the benefit of the payment of Gov
ernment interest, which amounts to about
?2.500,000. The fact that the foreign ex
change houses allowed the day to pass
without the expected engagement of fur
ther gold for export was an Influence In
the firmness of the market.
The railroad bond market continued
strong, with the Union Pacific convertible
bonds still very prominent. Total sales',
par value, $6,740,000. United States refund
ing 2s advanced per cent on the last
call.
Sales of the Weclc.
Sales on the New York Stock Exchange
for the five days this week during which
the Exchange was open for business ag
gregate 9,960,900 shares, compared with last
week's sales of 10,016,400 shares, which
broke all previous records for a full
week's business. On Monday of this week
the sales of all stocks reached
and their urgent demand helped prices on
the rebound.
The principal cause of the recent disqui
etude In the market was the fear of im
pairment of money market resources
which might restrict the liberal credits
which are the fostering cause of the con
tinued speculative buying. "When It be
came known that subscriptions were In
vited In New York to the new issue of
British consols and were being received
on a large scale, and when announce
ments were made of gold exports, the fear
was engendered that the Inroads upon
banking reserves thus threatened would
before long force bankers to call loans to
protect their surplus.
The Money Market.
There was. In fact, a good deal of call
ing of loans by banks early In the week,
which was offset by large offerings on ac-'
count of interior banking Institutions.
These offerings might either be the cause
an aggregate of 2,382,500 shares, i or the effect of the calling of loans by
breaking by several thousand the
previous records of one day's business.
On three out of the five days this week
the sales have .exceeded 2,000,000 shares.
Wednesday the a!es ' of Union Pacific
New York banks. The higher money rate
is the attraction for Interior banks to
lend money on the Stock Exchange, but
they draw on their New York deposits
for the funds. The loans thus placed may
alone 662,800 shares, far' exbeedlng a day's be re-deposited in a New York bank, but
sales of a, single stock in the history of the effect is to necessitate a shifting of
the Stock , Exchange. On Tuesday there : loans, which has a dlsturmng enect.
were passed through the New York Clear- The falling off In the offerings of bonds
lng-House checks representing exchanges J for redemption at the Subtreasury and In
of $546,937,155, which is more than $100,000,- the payments by the institution on ac
000 greater than any previous day's clear- ! count of pensions resulted In a renewed
absorption by It of money from tne mar-
ances.
Speculation Very Nervous.
The statement of these facts gives an
idea of the Immense speculation In stocks,
but it conveys only a slight idea of the
state of feverish excitement among spec
ulators. The speculation has been decid
edly nervous at times, owing to the sharp
breaks in prices of some of the most
active stocks. The failure of the general
market on Wednesday to respond to the
phenomenal strength and continued de
mand for Union Pacific especially caused
uneasiness and a dread lest the powerful
pools of millionaires, who have been cred
ited with the leadership of the bull mar
ket, have been selling their holdings un
der cover of the movement In Union Pa
cific to take their profits. But the buy
ing on recessions was so constantly re
newed and the market quotation's ab-
ket, and was an additional factor in the
disposition of caution. The call money
rate eased off in the course of the week,
however, and quieted any apprehension
on that score. It is the belief among the
speculators for the rise that the syndi
cates and capitalists concerned in the
railroad consolidations and the steel mer
ger are prepared to protect the money
market against stringency by the release
of funds from the heavy borrowings made
incident to their operations.
From December 22 last to March 9 this
year the loans of the New York banks
had expanded $131,690,900. This was the
period of the formation of the principal
syndicates having to do with the opera
tions towards consolidations among the
anthracite railroads, the Southern Pacific,
the steel merger and other transactions
In furtherance of the community of inter
est policy. The success of these transac
tions and of those which grew out of
them gave the great Impetus to the spec
ulation which has retained its force evtr
since, and gave a strong market for tha
flotation of the new securities which wero
Issued to reimburse the expense of tha
various purchases Involved. As these new
securities were Issued from time to time
and are still being issued, the support
which Is given them in the market by
their powerful sponsors affords a sustain
ing force to the whole market.
The past week's speculation really hid
no fresh news to further It. But former
rumors of several railroad mergers and
plans to offset the Burlington deal by
other Pacific and granger roads restrained
all the force. The firmness of Burlington
on the formal announcement of the terms
of the deals, when a certain amount of
speculative liquidation might have bten
expected, has added to the confidence in
the stability of other stocks, which have
risen In price.
The demand for railroad bonds has been
most marked in securities of the same
companies whose stocks have been promi
nent in the dealings, notably Unibn Pa
cific. United States 5s declined per cent
below last week's closing, call.
