Oopack and Magdalene Make Fast Unns From Portland -to Astoria Indrapnra Bring-' His Cargro. There are but three- ports in the United States that shipped mote -wheat than was exported from Portland during the month of April, and for the entire season, July 1 to May 1. This city shipped more than one-ninth of all of the -wheat exported from the United States for the first 10 months of the current cereal year. Wc have exported more than double the amount sent "out of Philadelphia or Balti more, and are crowding Galveston and New Orleans hard for second and third place on the list of wheat ports. The monthly statement of the Bureau of Sta tistics, which has Just been received from "WashinEton, gives the shipments for the season to May 1 as follows: Ten months ending April 30 Port 1S0L 1300.

An even better showing is made for the month of April. A year ago Port land's shipments for that month kept her in sixth place, but this year she holds the same position for the month that she holds for the entire year, and makes a highly satisfactory showing. The Gov ernment figures for the month of April are as follows: Port 1S0L New Orleans 2,564,476 New Tork 2,420,231 Boston and Charlestown. 1,932,825 Portland 1,580,839 Puget Sound 1,114,671 1900. 651,231 923,949 700,924 589,561 413,123 973.988 ban in-ancisco 4,a$ Galveston 94L360 1.157.760 Baltimore 908,046 360,995 Philadelphia 793,110 473,974 Newport News 167,780 137,902 Superior 22,431 258,001 Duluth 100,000 Other districts 423,231 665,241 Totals 13,824,893 7,405,643 BIG CARGO OF BAGS. Mammoth Steamship Indrapnra Ar rives With Nearly 7,000,000. The steamship Indrapura entered at the Custom-House today with the second largest consignment of grain bags ever received In a single shipment at this port. The big freighter brought to Portland 6,347,C00 wheat bags, in addition to 200,000 larger gunny-bags. She also had 123 bales of hop sacks and 100 bales of twill cloth. "While this was nearly a record-breaking bag cargo for Portland, it was only about half the amount which the steamer had aboard when she left Calcutta. She put Into San Francisco before reaching here, and discharged a liberal portion of her big cargo. The steamer arrived up late Sunday evening, and commenced discharg ing yesterday. When her inward cargo is disposed of she will be turned over to her new charterers, the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company, who will load her outward with a full cargo. The Indrapura will sail outward May 28, and some lively work will be done in loading her flour, as the rising water in the river is creeping up to the lower docks, where some of it is stored, at a more rapid rate than is comfortable. In order to get some of this flour out of danger as quick ly as possible, a portion of It will be load ed on the steamer before all of her bags are discharged. The only vessel that ever brought a larger carge of bags to Portland than that which came on the Indrapura was the famous MacDuff, Tvhich was so long on the way that 75 per cent reinsurance was paid on her. MAKING FAST RUNS. 'Magrdalene and OopncU Go to Astoria In Almost Record Time. Captain Archie Pease took the big trans port Oopack through to Astoria In almost record-breaking time, last Saturday even ing. The big freighter left Portland about 4:30 in the afternoon, and anchored at Astoria at 11 P. M., making the 100-mile run without' even slowing down for any of the sharp bends in the river. The steamer carried over 6000 tons of cargo, land passed on out to sea Sunday after noon, less than 24 hours after leaving Portland harbor. An even better perform ance was made yesterday by the towboat Harvest Queen, with the mammoth Ger man bark Magdalene. This vessel, load ed with 4850 tons of wheat, and drawing over 23a feet of water, left Portland at 4 o'clock yesterday morning, and anchored at Astoria at 3 o'clock yesterday after noon. NEW PACIFIC COAST PORT. Railroad Syndicate to Load Vessels at Manzanillo. NEW TORK, May 20. The Tribune says: The plans of a syndicate headed !y H. Clay Pierce, of St. Louis, It! is be lieved, aims at securing the bulk of trans portation of that vast import and ex port trade between America and Asia which is as yet only in its Infancy. The corner-stone of Mr. Pierce's scheme, as announced, is believed to be the estab lishment of a new Pacific Coast port? for deep sea vessels at Manzanillo, on the southwest coast of Mexico; and one of the chief links In the chain was forged the other day when Mr. Pierce's syndi cate secured control of the Mexican Cen tral Railroad. Mr. Pierce's party al ready had control of the St. Louis & San Francisco, of the Fort Scott system and of the Fort Worth road. The Western terminus of the Mexican Central is Colima, which Is only 85 miles from Manzanillo, and which is described as a natural land-locked harbor, suitable for sea-going vessels of the heaviest draft. Large sums of money will be expended, it is said, to make this one of the finest ports on the Pacific Ccaot', and the extension of the Mexican Central lines from Colima to Manzanillo will be at once undertaken and be pushed rapidly to completion. After that two connecting links remain to be created between the St. Louis & San Francisco system and the Mexican Central In order to complete the chain between Manzanillo and St. Loui. The Mexican International Rail, road will be one of these. It connects with the Mexican Central at Torreon. A new line must be built to connect the Mexican International with the St. Louis & San Francisco. This new line -will ex tend from Sherman, Tex., to Eagle Pass, on fhe Rio Grande. When it is built through freight can be carried from Man zanillo without trans-shipment to St. Louis and also to Birmingham, Ala., from which point direct connection may be made with Savannah. Ga.. over the South ern Railroad. It is asserted that this route from Manzanillo to St. Louis, and thence to New Tork. will be fully 1203 miles shorter than from San Francisco to this city. It is said that the Sellgmans, of this city, are financing the deal. Isaac N. ScHgman said: 'I cannot talk to you now about this. I may have something to say to you later." But even that was more than his part- j Tiers would vouchsafe. J. Stewart Mackie, vice-president of the Mexican Interna tional Hallway, said It was too early yet to discuss the part which his road might or might not play In the enterprise. Views of a. Director. BOSTON, May 20. E. Boilings Morse, leading director of the Mexican Central, said last night: "I know nothing of Mr. Pierce's plans for the future, or what he has already purchased, except that lie has control of the St. Louis & San Francisco and the Fort Scott systems and the Fort "Worth road. This gives him an easy connection with the Mexican Central which he has now taken over. When the Mexican Cen tral has completed its line to the Pacific he will have an Ideal line from the Pacific to St. Louis, and also to Birmingham, Ala., where he connects with the Southern Railway, and can go to Savannah, Ga., over thair lines if he chooses. I presume I was retained on the Mexican Central board because I had been there for 15 years as the representative of the Eng lish holders, but I am not consulted as to Mr. Pierce's plans outside of that prop erty. "No American and few Mexicans know Mexico as well as Mr. Pierce, and his business ability has been proved by his scheme; so it will not surprise me if he turns up with a valuable transcontinental line, and one not necessarily antagonistic to others. But I am not In his confidence to the extent of knowing his plans." Damaged by Squall. ASTORIA, Or., May 20. The pilot schooner San Jose was towed into the river last evening by the bar tug Wal lula In a damaged condition. In a squall yesterday afternoon the head of her fore mast was carried away and she could not use any of her foresails. A new foremast has been ordered and it will be placed In position In a few days. Poltalloch Not Floated. A letter received last evening from South Bend says that the attempt to float the stranded bark Poltalloch yesterday was unsuccessful for the reason that the mushroom anchor would not hold when the strain was put on the cable. The anchor will be moved to deeper water before another attempt is made to move the vessel. Domestic and Foreign Ports. ASTORIA, May 20. Arrived In at 11:10 A. M. and left up at 3 P. M.

Impossibility of Making Collections After a Lapse of Thirteen Tears. W. D. Fenton is of the opinion that all delinquent taxes on the rolls prior to 1888 should be canceled by an order of the County Court. He expressed himself to that effect not long ago, and since has submitted an opinion to the County Judge and Commissioners upon the subject. The matter of canceling taxes due prior to 1888 was also -taken up' by the City Council last week. Mr. Fenton's reasons are: 1. A period of 13 years has elapsed since 1S8S, and in many Instances the persons owing these unpaid claims for taxes, It any exist, have conveyed or disposed of the property to Innocent third persons and have died or re moved from the county, and their warranties are not available. 2. The county, through some of its Sheriffs and County Courts, has heretofore been ex tremely negligent of the rights of the taxpay ers, and has permitted these unpaid taxes to stand without effort to collect, and a very con siderable portion of the same concern alleged mortgage taxes upon satisfied mortgages that for more than 13 years have been regarded as wholly lost, and as not constituting Hens upon the property. 3. These claims for taxes prior to 1888 arose over blocks and acreage tracts that have since been subdivided or conveyed to numerous par ties, and an attempt to enforce collection would lead to Innumerable suits and controversies between private parties and Involve the county In extended and protracted litigation. 4. These claims for taxes by analogy of the statutes as to Judgments have long since ceased to be Hens upon the property affected, and it Is doubtful whether the county, In any view of the matter, could enforce collection. 5. It was the general consensus of legal opin ion prior to the recent decision of the Supreme Court as to mortgage taxes that taxes upon satisfied mortgages could not be collected, and wore not Hens upon the land affected thereby, and for this reason but few abstractors fur nished a list of these taxes In abstracts fur nished, and many Innocent persons would be Involved In liability and controversy If the county should now undertake to disturb the titles, and the amount of the tax to be recov ered would not Justify the County Court, in my opinion. In making this effort. 6. The delinquent sales heretofore made were based upon alias warrants in 1898 for the years commencing with that of 1888, and a very large sum. of money was expended In the attempt to collect the taxes charged In the series under these alias warrants, and It seems to me that the taxpayers of the county would Justify the County Court in confining its efforts at collection and Its expenditures as to plat books to the year 1888 and subse quent years, and In passing a general order that all pretended claims for taxes prior to 1888 of every kind and character should be waived, abandoned and released. This prac tice has been observed in several counties of the "Willamette Valley, and I think is a meas ure of justice not only to the taxpayers whose money would be lost In expense of litigation, but in Justice to many Innocent persons who labored under a misapprehension as to their rights and liabilities. I take this method of expressing to the court frankly and openly my opinion, and I do so as a taxpayer and a representative of many per sons, who would be greatly embarrassed if title should be disturbed prior to 1888. I think there would be very general acquiescence In and commendation of the action of the court in attempting to clean up all taxes from 1883 down' to and including the present time.

Trial Size, 5 Cents. The success of my Witch Hazel Soap confirms the faith I had in It. I knew that It was the best toilet soap made. I knew it because the soap was the re sult of a long series of experiments, to secure at any cost the best. Tet, when about to launch it upon the market, I faced most discouraging reports from the wholesale and retail drug trade. Their advice was "drop it." "Why? I was in formed that "nearly every druggist In the land had a brand of his own soap, and the dry goods houses also had theirs, which they urged upon their custom ers." This was a familiar story. I went right ahead. I had a soap whose basis is Witch Hazel real Witch Hazel not Witch 'Hazel in name only; not watery Witch Hazel, but a scientifically concentrated Witch Hazel that has the solidity of jelly. When I told this to the trade I was met with "but that must make your soap very expensive." That was true.. It Is expensive. It possibly costs double that of any other toilet soap. Although the market is glutted with soaps, I knew that folks are always seeking the BEST. I proposed to give it to them. I am willing to stake my reputation and fortune upon the success of Munyon's Witch Hazel Soap not the success that may come from extensive advertising, but that success which is always won by absolute merit. I offer to the public a soap that will soften the roughest hands, that will keep the pores in a healthy condition; that is absolutely free from all rancid fats and dangerous alkalies; a soap that will positively cure dandruff and all scaly r diseases, allay Itching and all skin eruptions, and a soap that every mother in the land should use on her baby. I feel that this soap will become a toilet necessity. Although but a few weeks before the public, the sales have been tremendous. The demand has sur prised the drug trade. The flattering testimonials I have received from various narts of the country still further confirm my opinion that the people are ever ready to buy the best. The best Is Munyon's Witch Hazel Soap. I had taught the public to look for the best. My Cold Cure, my Rheumatism Cure, my Dyspep sia Cure, my Kidney Cure, all my Cures, In fact, are THE BEST of their kinds. The civilized world knows .this to be a fact. If you have rheumatism, try Munyon's Rheumatism Cure; if you have dyspep sia, try his Dyspepsia Cure; if you have kidney disease, try his Kidney Cure; If you have a cold, try his Cold Cure; if you have a sore throat, try his Sore Throat Cure; If you have headaches, try his Headache Cure; If you have liver trouble, try his Liver Cure. Professor Munyon has prepared a special remedy for most every disease with which anybody can doctor and cure himself. They are mostly 25 cents each; at all druggists. If you have any disease of the head, nose, throat or lungs, try Munyon's Inhaler. It will positively cure Catarrh, Grip, Bronchitis, Influenza, Asthma. Two kinds hard rubber and glass "Family."
