RENEE R1CKMERS IN PORT
GERMAN SHIP 3IAKES A 3IODERATE
PASSAGE ACROSS THE PACIFIC.
September Ships Nearly All In Brit
ish Ship Cromartyshire Burned
at Sea Holiday Obuerved.
Another of the numerous Jtlckmers fam
ily of -ships arrived in yesterday after
noon, after a moderate passage of 43 days
from Hiogo. This latest arrival is the
Eenee Rickmers, which made her first
trip to Portland about! a dozen years ago.
At that time the Renee Rickmers was
the largest German ship that had ever
entered the Columbia, but the same cap
tain ttiat broucht her In then has since
come to Portland twice, with the Peter
Rickmers, which carries 1500 tons more
cargo than can be stowed away on the
Renee Rickmers. The latter vessel, like
the Mabel Rickmers, already in port,
comes to Girvin & Eyre, and two more of
t'ne family are under charter for Portland
loading. Of these the Rickmer Rickmers
arrived at Hiogo from Kew York August
11, and is about ready to sail for Port
land. The Robert Rickmers sailed from
Philadelphia for Nagasaki May L9, with
coal oil, and on discharging her cargo will
come to Portland in ballast.
The arrival of the Rickmers leaves less
than half a dozen vessels on the en route
list that may be considered as fully due.
Of these the Maytfeld, from Valparaiso,
should be the nearest to hand. She sailed
Irom the South American port over two
months ago, and received orders off San
TYanclsco September 3, instructing her
to come to Portland to load. Two weeks
is a long passage up from San Francisco,
Irot the vessel has undoubtedly been
obliged to beat against some strong "head
winds. The G. 'H. "Wappeus is 30 days
out from Kiao Chou, and is due any time.
The Bariuiin and the Thornllebank are
out 30 and 31 days respectively from Santa
Rosalia, and while the average passage
from that port is over 40.da3Ts, the Lis
lieth came up to Puget Sound in about
30 days, and four ships last season made,
the run up under 23 days. The East In.
idian, 03 days from Valparaiso, is fully due,
and the Bourbaki, 122 days from St.
Nazaire, is considerably behind the record
passage. Other ships due before October
1 are the Nelson, from Callao; Werra,
from Honolulu, and the Lady Isabella,
irom Valparaiso.
UNLUCKY CROMARTYSHIRE.
Tainons Old. Clipper on Fire and
Abandoned Off South Africa.
A hoodoo seems to be hanging over the
famous old clipper Cromartyshire, which
lias made so many lightning passages be
tween Portland and other Pacific Coast
ports and Europe. For years she sailed
the .seas without the slightest accident,
lut since her unfortunate collision with
!La Bourgogne, her luck has changed.
"While in no way to blame for the col
lision which sent 600 people to the bottom
of the Atlantic, the Cromartyshire was
pretty badly damaged at the time, and
lias been in tt-ouble nearly all of the time
since. After being repaired at Halifax
ehe made one trip to the Orient, and then
came to Portland last year. Here she
Bocured the highest charter that has been
written in this port? for over 10 years. She
was loaded with barley by Kerr, Gifford
& Co., and a few days after sailing en.
countered a storm, which battered her up
so severely that she was obliged to put
into San Francisco lor repairs. She lost
over a month by this accident, but? met
with no further mishap on the way home.
After discharging her cargo from Port
land she loaded at L-elth for Algoa Bay,
sailing in June. She made a fast out
ward passage, but on August 13. when
off Mossel Bay, caught fire and was so
badly burned that iSie crew abandoned
her. She was subsequently picked up and
towed into Port Elizabeth, where a survey
-will be held to determine whether or not
she will be repaired.
CAPTAIN" ai'GREGOR'S LATEST.
Glenlochy's Old Skipper on Paget
Sound With a Ncvr Ship.
The British steamer Glenlogan, now
loading on Puget Sound, is in command ot
Captain James McGregor, -who brought
the stfeamship OBenlochy to Portland four
years ago. Since giving up command of
the Glenlochy Captain McGregor has su
perintended the building of a number of
new steamers for the Glen line, the latest
addition being the Glenroy- The steamer
which he now commands was formerly the
Denton Grange, which went ashore In
South Africa while in the transport serv
ice about two years ago. She was bought
from the underwriters by her present own
ers, who expended nearly $130,000 In mak
ing her as good as a new ship. She is a
l)lg carrier, and is expected to take out
about 9000 tons of wheat from Puget
gound. The Glenturret, which is under
charrwr to load wheat at Portland, is a
fcister ship of the Glenlochy, -which loaded
the pioneer big lumber cargo at Port
land. WITH A RECORD CARGO.
iOccnno Crosses Out of the River
. Bound for the Far East.
The steamship Oceano sailed from As
toria yesterday afternoon, crossing out at
4 o'clock. She carried 3.977,030 feet of
lumber, the largest cargo ever floated on
the Pacific Coast, and, with one or two
exceptions, the largest ever shipped from
any port in the world. The Oceano was
dispatched by the Pacific Export' Lumber
Company, and carries the fourth cargo
sent out by them in excess of 3,230,000 feet,
the average of the four being 3,553,000 feet.
The same firm, has a record of a dozen
cargoes averaging over 3,000,000 feet. The
Oceano was drawing 24 feet 2 inches when
she left Astoria.

ENDED LIFE WITH HOPE.
Fruitgrower Bellmar Hanged Him
self 'While in Bed.
Suffering from a fit of despondency,
probably brought on by his living alone
too much and the fact that he had not
gathered enough money to pay for a trip
to California, where he expected to jour
ney with one of his daughters, Hermann
Bellmar, 60 years old, a farmer living on
a ranch near Linnton, committed suicide
yesterday morning 'by .hanging himself
with a clothesline, one end of which was
around his neck and the other tied to a
bed post
From the evidence at the Coroner's in
quest, Bellmar conducted a fruit ranch
across the line from the Phillips post
office -in Multnomah County, and lived
alone in the farmhouse. His niece lived
near him and Bellmar was in the habit
of purchasing supplies from day to day.
Three of his sons are in business In San
Francisco and he has also three daugh
ters. One of his daughters Is now on her
way from Iowa, and she and her father
had planned, to visit their relatives In
San Francisco after she arrived Ifi this
city.
John Guttsmith, a neighbor of Bell
mar's, testified that he went to the ranch
to gather fruit, as Bellmar had often
told him that he could help himself to
the fruit whenever he wished. Witness
left his children to pick, the fruit and
walked toward the house to pay Bellmar
a neighborly visit On knocking at the
door and receiving no answer, witness
entered and found Bellmar In bed, with the
clothesline dangling from the bed post
Bellmar was dressed in his working
clothes and his head was raised a few
inches from the pillow. He could prob
ably have saved his life during conscious
ness by raising his head a little. There
was only flour in the cupboard, but the
ranch was plentifully stocked with fruit.
Evidence was also given that Bellmar
was supposed to keep his money in a
box placed In a closet cupboard, and that
on Investigation the money box was found
to be empty. Suspicions of foul play were
entertained at this point But when tnt
Coroner anrlved a rigid search was insti
tuted for the money. The ashes were
raked out of the stove and the searchers
were about to give up the quest, when
the bed was examined, and $6 50 was
found under the" mattress and 90 cents in
one of the dead man's pockets. The last
time Bellmar was seen alive was Tues
day, when he appeared to be about as
usual. He was a man who usually talked
very little, and Jie. did not drink to ex-,
cess. He had 'not spoken about suicide
apd the neighbors were surprised when
they learned that he had killed himself.
His relatives were Immediately notified of
his end.

CZAR A SHAM FIGHT
WITNESSED THE ARMY MANEU
- VERS AT COMPEIGNE.
One Hundred and Forty Thousand
1 Men Were in Action Visit to the
Cathedral at Rheims.
COMPEIGNE, Sept 19. Emperor Nich
olas passed a day full of interest. The
morning was spent in witnessing the final
operations of the grand western maneu
vers, at which the Czar for the first time
came into contact with the French mil
itary operating under war conditions and
not merely in parade form.
The troops were concentrated on the
plain around Fort Vltry in the early
morning. Operations began at 10 on the

PORTLAND'S PIONEER
J. W. CLEAVER, WHO DIED YESTERDAY.
J. W. Cleaver died at his residence on Mount Tabor yesterday morning, at
the age of 7C. His demise is notable from the fact that ho was the pioneer fur
niture manufacturer and undertaker of the Pacific Northwest. He was of English
birth, and went to Canada in his early youth, and to California In 1S49. In
1850 he came to Oregon, and started a chair factory in Portland, and to this
day many of his chairs are yet In evidence, so thorough was his" workmanship. He
combined with his furniture business the undertaking of .funerals, and made the
first Interment In Lone Fir cemetery. Later 'he transferred hla business to Baker
City, where he remained for many years, but returned to Portland about one
year ago, leading . quiet and TOtlred life. He was married to the second
daughter of the late J. "V. Peters, and left his widow and three adult children
to mourn his loss.

at rival of the Czar, who, surrounded by
French and Russian staff officers, fol
lowed most of the movements'" on horse
back. More than once the Russian Em
peror galloped ahead among the soldiers
and watched their proceedings as though
desirous of satisfying himself of their
efficiency and value as fighting units.
The skirmishing army corps early de
veloped an attack upon Fort Fresne, the
minor fort. The Czar and Czarina, with
M. Louhet and others, mounted the earth
works inside and watched the whole army
corps advancing to the assault The ene
my approached in heavy lines under
cover of the shells of their artillery, to
which the fort responded. The position
was finally carried at the point of the
bayonet. It was a highly theatrical op
eration, utterly Impossible in war, but
carried 'out with the dash for which the
French soldier is famous, and it aroused
the enthusiasm of thousands of specta
tors. The closing phase of the opera
tions, when the entire force of 140,000 men
was In action, was viewed from an emi
nence near Fort Vitry. The whole coun
try swarmed with soldiers, who, in the
distance,' resembled a vast army of ants.
Red flashes burst from the muzzles of
batteries, while nearer were stretched
out lines of Infantry firing volley after
volley. Regiments of dragoons and chas
seurs in light blue "charged across the
country. Brass helmets and sabers glit
tered in the sunshine. The ground vi
brated with thousands of hoofs as the
cavalary dashed to the capture of the
batteries, which quickly limbered up ana
retreated at full gallop. The operations
concluded at 2 o'clock.
When the Czar asked to be shown the
new French field gun, which had never
been shown to a foreigner, one of a bat
tery of four was taken to him. He ex
amined the machine. Then the gun was
put together and eight shots were fired
with marvelous rapidity. In order to
demonstrate the absence of recoil, the
gunners sat on trie carriage during the
firing. The Czar , expressed his admira
tion of the astonishing qualities of the
weapon.
It is worthy of note 'that the Russian
Emperor chatted cordially with General
Andre, the Minister of War, which was
an excellent repudiation of the asser
tions made by the Nationalist organs that
the Czar regarded him as a disorganlzer
of the French army. At General Andre's
suggestion the Czar allowed himself to
be clnemetographed. The Czarina was also
photographed with him, with- President
Loubet and the French Ministers and
officers. She took numerous snap shots
throughout the day.
The President and' his Imperial guests
reached Rheims by carriage at 5 o'clock.
Here the party visited the beautiful
Gothic cathedral. After admiring the
sculptured facade, which resembles a
beautiful piece of lace work, the Czar
entered the edifice. He" was met at the
porch by Cardinal Langenteux, Archi
bishop of Rheims, in scarlet robes, who
was attended by the Vicar General, at
tired in velvet and surrounded by the
clergy. The Cardinal conducted the Em
peror around the cathedral, exhibiting
and explaining the precious relics, in
cluding gorgeously embroidered garments
worn by Cardinals in the middle ages.
The programme was to have been con
cluded by silent devotions by the eccels
iastlcs and their majesties, but the" Czar
either misunderstood the arrangement
or was 'disinclined to fall in with it. owing
to the difference of religious belief, for
he left unnoticed the Prle Dieu provided
for him, and this portion of the pro
gramme was omitted. Compeigne was
reached on the return at 7:3Q and the
Czar spent the evening quietely in the
chateau.
AMBUSHED-BY BOERS.
Sharp Skirmish in Which Botha Was
Engaged.
LONDON, Sept. 19. A dispatch, from
Lord Kitchener, from Pretoria, dated
September 18. announces that the 'Boers,
September 17, ambushed three companies
of mounted infantry with three guns,
commanded by Major Gough, in the vi
cinity of Scheeper's Nek. After severe
fighting the British were overpowered
and lost their guns, the sights and
breech blocks of which were first dej
stroyed. Two officers and 14 men were
killed and five officers and 25 men were
wounded. Five officers and 150 men were
made prisoners. Major Gough, who ts-
caped during the night, reports that the
Boers numbered 1000 men, and tha"t they
were commanded by General Botha.
General ..French reports that Com
mandant Smuts, in order to break
through a cordon, rushed on a squadron
of the Seventh Lancers at Elands Rlv
erpoort, killing three officers and 20 men
and wounding one officer and 30 men. The
Boers, who were dressed in khaki and
who were mistaken for British troops,
lost heavily.

The Duke and Duchess were accompa
nied on their several visits by a number
of members of their suite and aside from
the presentation of addresses, everything
was very informal. They mingled very
freely with those 'whom they met at the

the day for Ottawa to prepare that city
for the visit of the royal couple," hut Pre

FATAL ECONOMY.
-
VERY old maxim declares that it isn't econ
omy to pick up pins ; the time is worth more
than the pins. Similarly it is not true econ
omy to do without Ivory Soap; your health
requires the daily removal o the bodily excretions
which are discharged through the pores of the skin
These tiny mouths must be kept open, and they
should be opened only with a pure soap.
IVORY SOAP 99i& PER CENT. PURE.
