IDLE FLEET IS GROWING
FRCXCH BARK VERSAILLES AR
RIVES WITHOUT CHARTER.
Freights Are Depressed All Over the
"World -Twentieth January Grain
Cargo Cleared Yesterday.
The disengaged fleet In port is again
growing. It -was Increased yesterday by
the arrival of the French bark Versailles,
which arrived in ballast after a fast pas
sage from Glasgow by way pf Nomla.
The Oregon wheatgrowers owe a lasting
debt of gratitude to the French taxpay
ers for supplying them with so much
tonnage at a time when It is not especially
needed. No other factor has contributed
so much toward demoralizing the freight
market as the mysterious movements of
these bounty-earners. They have been
bobbing up from unexpected sources re
cently in sufficient numbers to upset the
calculations of the owners of unsubsldized
ships, who order their ships from port to
port by a system which prevents a con
gestion, and attendant violent decline at
any single port. Some Idea of the im
portance of this French fleet can be
gleaned from the shipping lists, which
show that for Portland alone over 30 of
these vessels have arrived or are listed
to arrive this season. This fleet of French
vessels has been the principal cause of
the weakness In freights, but there is also
a steady Increase in the number of ships
of other nations now seeking wheat busi
ness at Pacific Coast ports.
The disengaged fleet suitable for wheat
loading at San Francisco has reached an
even dozen ships of 25,000 tons net regis
ter. At Portland there is the Fulwood and
the last arrival, the Versailles; at Seattle,
the Penrhyn Castle; and at Port Town
send, the steamer Wilhelmina. The com
bined carrying capacity of this Idle fleet
is at least 50,000 tons, and with such a
small amount of wheat selling, it will be
no easy task to find business for It. It is
reported that the Fulwood is asking bids
for lumber business, and It Is possible
that the Wilhelmina may secure the same
kind of business. The latter Is an enor
mous carrier, taking on her last trip from
the Pacific Coast 214,000 bushels of wheat
from Portland, and so long as she Is seek
ing, she will hang like a weight on a
freight market that was weakened before
her arrival.
While the French vessels were the prin
cipal factors in demoralizing freights
locally, there was another cause which
commenced -working in other parts of the
world several months ago. The produc
tion of tonnage has run ahead of the de
mand, and worldwide weakness in freights
has resulted. The trouble began on the
Atlantic several months ago, when the
big liners cut grain rates down as low as
1 cents per bushel for wheat. Owners
had always contended that 7 cents per
bushel was the limit at which a regular
cargo boat could run and make her ex
penses, and when the big liners put the
rate at these very low figures, the freight
boats were drlveninto other trades, where
sailers had been making good profits.
They went out to the Orient, thence across
to the Pacific. Coast for wheat, lumber and
merchandise from northern ports, and
nitrate from the west coast of South
America. Under the stress of this keen
hunt for business all over the world it
-was Impossible to maintain freights, and
they have slumped all along the line, and
from present Indications some of the ex
travagant profits made during the "four
fat years," which shipowners have ex
perienced, will be swallowed up in keep,
lng the fleet moving through the period
of depression that has now set in. Refer
ring to the disastrous condition of the
freight market, a prominent London ship
ping authority has the following:
Owners have the remedy of the present con
dition of affairs in their own hands. They are
masters of the situation if they like to hold
Arm and say, 'We won't run our boats except
Xor a living freight." In their case there is
no fear of a strike of shippers and merchants,
for the trade of the world must go on, let
freights be what they may. It has often been
said that anything approaching a combination
amongst shipowners Is utterly Impossible; that
they have always fought amongst themselves
and will ever demonstrate the "survival of
the fittest." But this has never been proved,
as the suggestion of "an understanding"
amongst them has never been submitted. Would
there be any great obstacle, for instance, to
the Hartlepool shipowners holding a confer
ence, or the London, Liverpool or Glasgow
shipowners doing the same? Surely some line
of common action could be arrived at to put an
end to the "ruination" that Is going on. Again,
it is becoming more apparent every day that
the liners and tramps will have to work more
in accord In the future; the liners charge tramp
owners with ruining their trades by coming on
their markets with their employment unpro
vided for, and smashing rates by taking any
thing obtainable: while tramp owners still
more forcibly claim that these cargo liners are
at the bottom of half the present deplorable
state of things. Look, for Instance, at the
doings of the United States liners. There Is
only one consolation In having bad freights; it
will stop building, stop the foreigners supple
menting their already large fleets, give the
liners time for reflection, and the low freights
may possibly stimulate new markets, as for
Instance the coal shipments from the United
States all over the world.
LIBELED THE RICKMERS.
Another German Ship in Trouble on
the Inland Sea.
The German ship Robert RIckmers, un
der charter to Kerr, GIfford & Co., of this
city, is having considerable trouble in
the wind-swept harbors of Puget Sound.
She has been libeled by the Stimson Mill
Company, of Seattle, for damages to the
bark Stimson, owned by the libellants.
The trouble occurred on Christmas night,
during a gale. The RIckmers was an
chored about one-fourth of a mlle from
the Stimson, says the Taconia News, but
broke from her moorings, dragged her an
chor and ran Into the Stimson, doing con
siderable damage and causing her to break
from her moorings. The Federal Court
is asked to give the libellant judgment for
an amount it may consider right.
The Robert RIckmers, it is said, will also
bring a suit against the Puget Sound Tug
boat Company, one of whose tugs had
started with the RIckmers In tow from
Port Townsend on December 26. Owing
to the heavy gale the tow was cut and
the RIckmers anchored in Ballard Bay,
where her anchors dragged with disastrous
results to herself and neighboring craft.
The marine survey held on the schooner
Stimson reported that two of her masts
were badly chafed, nearly all her star
board rigging carried away, the shaft of
her patent windlass was broken, her star
board rail smashed, and minor Injuries
sustained. Marine men at the time esti
mated the damage at $10,000.
IXDRAVELLI IX PORT.
Biff Liner Arrives at Astoria After a
Slow I'nMjage From Yokohama.
The' Portland and Asiatic liner Indra
velll arrived in at Astoria yesterday after
noon, and will reach Ainsworth dock to
day. She brings one of the largest in
ward cargoes that has yet reached port
by the new line. A full outward cargo Is
awaiting her on the dock, and enough
freight has been diverted from this port
to Puget Sound lines to fill her twice over.
She is a few days behind her schedule,
and work on her will be rushed. The
steamer was longer than usual in crossing
the Pacific, on account of unfavorable
winds.
TWEKTIETH GRAIX CARGO.
Barkentine Renacld Swells Month's
Wheat Exports to 1,028,722 Bushels.
The first barkentine that ever Cleared
from Portland with a cargo of wheat was
dispatched yesterday by Balfour, Guthrie
& Co., the craft being the British barken,
tine. Renfield. While only a barkentine.
she has a larger cargo than was carried
by some of the small square-riggers tnat
have sailed from this port within the past
few weeks. She has aboard 5,203 bushels
of wheat, valued at $4l,07S, and goes to
Queenstown or Falmouth for orders. The
Renfield is the 20th grain ship to clear
from Portland this month, and the -wheat
shipments alone have reached a total of
1,928.722 bushels. The British ship Irby
finished loading last evening, and will
clear touay, and her cargo will lift the
exports for the month safely over the
2,000,000-busnel mark.
"WILL LIBEL BLACItBRAES.
Sailor Alleges He Tras Driven, Out of
the Vessel at Portland.
ASTORIA, Or., Jan. 29. When the Brit
ish ship Bracbraes arrives down the river
she will be libeled on account of a sailor
by the name of Edwards, who arrived in
port on her, and who alleges having been
driven out of the vessel at Portland. Later
the man was shipped on the German ship
Carl, but when the vessel reached As
toria he -was put ashore, as his presence
caused a mutiny among the crew, the
cause being his illness, filthy habits and
general debility. Edwards alleges that
he was kicked, beaten and driven ashore
from the Blackbraes -without having been
paid about $150 due him. He has been
at the city jail as a lodger for several
days, and is a public charge. He has
engaged a lawyer to look out for his
interests, and the vessel will be tied up
here until the claim is settled or a bond
given.
Came In Through South Channel.
The steam schooner Alliance crossed in
from San Francisco at 10:30 last evening.
The vessel came in through the south
channel at low tide, and her master. Cap
tain Hartwlg, made careful soundings,
finding not less than 24 feet of water at
any place. He says that If the Govern
ment would buoy this channel It would be
much more serviceable than the north
channel, which is now generally used.

RULES FOR REGISTRATION
COUXTY CLERK SWETLAXD ADOPTS
CERTAIN REGULATIONS.
They Are Based Upon District Attor

In VQjiv? of the fact that 60 many ques

Swetland submitted a number of them to
the District Attorney, and in conformity

Ave- v LsT Lk, j&295 . SDBHHHf
COLOXEL SAMUEL PARKER.
In view of the probable retirement of Governor Sanford B. Dole, of Hawaii,
on account of HI health, speculation has arisen as to his successor. It has been
announced from Washington that Colonel Samuel Parker, of Hawaii, would be
President Roosevelt's choice. Ho Is one of tho most prominent planters of the
islands. He owns an extensive landed estate, and his country place Is famous
for Its hospitality. Colonel Parker recently married Mrs. Abigail Campbell In San
Francisco. Under the native Hawaiian rule he held the position of Minister of
Foreign Affairs.
who will soon become of age havo been
denied, owing to the fact that they are
not now electors. There are also persons
who have declared their Intentions, and
who will be voters next election. The
constitution provides that they can vote
one year after having taken out first pa
pers, but the year has not passed. They
cannot register.
Then there are recent arrivals, who
have not lived here the six months re
quired by law to gain a residence. These,
also, cannot now register. Registration
closes on May 15. If the time limit has
expired by that time, or prior thereto,
they can return and register, otherwise
they must vote on affidavits made when
they are electors, which, when signed by
six freeholders, will give them the right
to exercise the elective franchise.

Any person claiming citizenship by vir

land has caused to be printed large no

lows: 1. The place shall be considered and held to
be the residence of a person In which his
habitation Is nxed, and to which, whenever he
Is abBcnt. he has the Intention of returning.
2. A person shall not bo considered or held

election precinct in the county where they
may reside for county officers, and in any
county in the state for state officers, or in
any county of a Congressional district in which
such electors may reside for members of Con

The following regulation notice to elec
tors meets the eye In boldface type In the

Any person who shall willfully or fraudulent
ly register more than once or register under
any but his true name, or attempt to vote by
Impersonating another who has registered,
contrary to the provisions of this act, or know
ingly register in any precinct where ho is not
a resident at the time of registering, upon
conviction, shall be punished by Imprisonment
In the penitentiary not less than one year nor
more than three years, or by a fine not less
that ?100 or more than $2000, or both such
fine and Imprisonment.
Any person who shall falsely swear to any
affidavit required by this act shall be deemed
guilty of perjury, and upon conviction thereof
shall be punished accordingly.
This Is an extract from the registration
law. The work of each day is compared
by the deputies, and every effort Is being
made to see that no' errors are made.
Electors are urged to register as soon as
possible, and not to delay and create a
rush. After primary day has been an
nounced, increased Interest will probably
result. All electors must register. Pre
vious registrations are now void.

who was killed three weeks ago In the
Rattlesnake Mountains, while pursuing
Woodward and two other escaped prison
ers. Armed men are guarding the stage

ty Jail. Every street leading to the jail
is being watched, and It is almost certain
that Woodward will be lynched, unless
5tate troops Interfere. Acting Governor
Chattc-son has Instructed the Casper mil

but it probably will not be ordered out
unless the Sheriff asks for assistance. This,
it Is thought, he will not dare to do, as the
people seem determined to take the law
Into their own hands.. Casper is filling
up with cewboys, ranchmen, miners and
others.

Had Incurable Consumption, Were Permanently Cured by
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
STOPPED HEMORRHAGES
NASHUA CITY. N. H.
Gentlemen: It is with great pleasure that
I write to Inform you that I have used
eight bottles of your Pure Malt Whiskey.
I would not have been here today, only
for your wonderful medicine. I have used
all kinds of cough syrups and been under
the care of doctors. 1 have had three
severe attacks of grip and pneumonia,
which have left me with a bad cough and
weak lungs and heart. I am 67 years old.
It has toned up my system and stopped
the hemorrhages. I cough but very little.
I only regret I did not know of your whis
key before. I cannot express what It has
done for me. I beg to remain, yours re
spectfully, MRS H. C. ALLINGTON, Nov. 11, 190L
QUICKLY CURED
iDear Sirs: I picked up one of your cir
culars on a table about a. month ago and
read It through. After reading I went out
and bought a bottle of your whiskey,
which helped me right away. I am now
on my third bottle, using it for so-called
Incurable consumption, and I feel like a
new man. I think that if I had known ot
your whiskey when I was at home in
Chicago, I would have never come out
here for my health. ED. SCHUBARTH,
160S Market street, Denver, Oct. IS, 190L
Thero are thousands of cases Just like
that of Mr. Schubarth and Mrs. AHington,
where the patients thought they had in
curable consumption until their doctors
Srescrlbed Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey,
uffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is absolutely
pure, and possesses more curative power
than all other medicines. It contains no
fusel oil, so common in other whiskeys,
and -which Is a dangerous Ingredient in
whiskey, especially for the diseased sys
tem, when the poison takes effect.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey not only
drives out consumption germs and heals
the lungs, but It builds up new tlssuq and
renovates the entire system. It aids di
gestion, stimulates and enriches the blood,
tones up the heart. Invigorates and builds
up the body so that it will throw off all
disease. At the medical convention In Al
bany, one of the leading doctors said he
President has long been considering the
Hawaiian situation, and is still considering
It, but he has reached no conclusion as to
whether he will retain the present officials
or whom ho will appoint, if any change
is made."

A Tic Game.
NEWBERG, Or., Jan. 29. (To the Ed
itor.) The basket-ball game between Mon
mouth Normal School and Pacific College
on January 24 resulted In a score of 15 to
15, Instead of a defeat for Newberg. The
account In Sunday's Oregonlan was doubt
less written before the final decision was
known. The referee from Monmouth called
a foul on Newberg, for which he had no
authority. After the goal was thrown the
referee and umpires decided that the goal
did not count, and the gamo a tie. An
other game will be played between the two

would rather have Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey to cure consumption, catarrh,
asthma and diseases of the throat and
lungs than all the quack medicines In the
world, and the doctors present agreed
with him unanimously. Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey is good for old and young. It
has carried the blessing of health to hun
dreds of thousands of poor sufferers. Many
have tried to imitate It. and unreliable
dealers have been known to try to sell
their customers some cheap substitute be
cause there was more profit in the substi
tute. So -we caution our patients to be
careful and see that "Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey" Is on the label, and that It Is
our own patent bottle, with the name
blown In the bottle. This is the only
way Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is sold.
If offered in bulk or in flasks it Is a fraud.
Write Duffy Malt Whiskey Co., Roches
ter. N. Y., for two game sounters for
whist, euchre, etc; enclose 4 cents in
stamps to cover postage. , Valuable meal
cal booklet free. Mention this paper.
Duffy's Malt Whiskey Is sold by all drug
gists, grocers, or direct, 51.00 a bottle. It
is the only whiskey recognized by the
Government as a medicine. Refuse sub
