"Wltli Currying Capacity of -lO.OOO Tims Asie to lie Repaired Here. The rortland & Asiatic Steamship Com pany yesterday chartered the big steam ship Strnfchpyle for its Oriental service, making a total of five miramoth carriers now on the route. The Strathpryle. which ha made frequent trips to this. port in the r-ervice of the California &. Oriental Steamship Company, has a dead-weight carrying capacity of near SOO) tons, her r t register being 32S tons, and gross reg ister SQ23 tons. This places her second on the list in the fleet In size, althouch the Indrapurn and Indravelll are both a fw feet longer. The principal dimensions of the Portland & Asiatic Hoot, as it now stands, are as follows: Grosp. tons. Length. Beam. Depth. Indrasahma ... .5117 410 4!U 2S.C Strathgylc 5023 3M -27 2S.1 Indravelll -JSKt -100 49.2 2S.3 Indrapurh. 4S93 4(0 4P.2 23 Thyra 3712 339 4S.0 17.9 The combined carrying capacity of this ' Jleet is 40,000 tons weight and -measurement, and they can carry over 35,000 tons d-ead weight. The Strathgyle will be delivered ,to the Portland fc Aslutic Company in the Orient next month, and will arrive at Portland in April. While some of the lu gct Sound lines have an occasional steam er as large as the "big four" now secured ly the Portland line, no other line run ,Tiing out of an Oregon, "Washington or British Columbia' port in the Oriental trade exclusively has so many large steamers as arc controlled by the Portland line. In securing these mammoth freighters at a. time when the bar is in the worst shape it has been in for many years, the cora jpany gives assurance that it will stay with Portland and will lake care of the business. The line has been in operation less than a year, and its operation has not been as profitable as it will be when its permanency becomes assured. The business is increasing, however, and by another year will be more satisfactory, and the officers of the company have given assurance that they will meet any emer gency that may arise, and provide ad ditional steamers whenever the present ex cellent equipment becomes inadequate to the neels of the port. The Strathgyle was built at Glasgow in 1S91; the Indrapura and Indravelll in 1S97: the Thyra In 1S9S, and the Indrasahma In lf01. so that all of the vessels arc practically new, TO REPAIR THE ASII1 "Willnr.iette Holler Works Will Put French Ilsirlc In Order AkiiIii. The contract for repairing the French bark Asie was let yesterday to the Willam ette Boiler "Works, an adjunct of the Wil lamette Iron Works. The price at which the work will be done was not made pub lic, but Is said to be about $15,000 less than "he former bid of the Willamette Iron Works. The vessel will be brought up to the dock at the foot of Flanders fctreet as soon as the preliminaries are ar ranged, and will be repaired as quickly as possible. She will be unable to get away before very late In the season, how ever, and owing to the low rates for freights, will probably go over for new Miason loading. Her loss through the decline in freight has already amounted to over ?7.vy, but there -may be an Improve ment before she is ready for business again. The explanation offered by the con tractors Is that bids for the work on the Asie were sent from San Francisco, including towage to that port, that were s-atisfactory to the agents here. In con sequence of the great difference in the rtpectlve bids, the agents, on full ex amination of the bids for the respective portions of the work to be done, found the price of the iron work was reason able, but the price of the other work was excessive. Almost all bidding, it seems, depended to a great extent on the Wil lamette Boiler Works to do the masts and much of the iron work, they not being bidders for the entire job. After all bids vero rejected, it is asserted, the agents signified to the Willamette Boiler Works, they being about the only ones prepared to do the most difficult part of the woik, that if they would make a price for the entire contract within a certain figure they could have the contract, rather than have the work go away from Portland. A price was named Inside the limit fixed by the agents, and the entire contract was given to the boiler works. This new cor poration, under experienced hands, is well adapted to lay ships alongside its works and promptly dispatch work. In 4S hours they took out the large smokestack of the steamship Columbia and replaced it with a new one. STII.L. nUII.llIX STEA.MEKS. Captain James "IV. Troup Holds Im portant Position in His Company. Captain James W.

A CONTINENTAL HALL PROPOSAL VOTED DOWX BY' DAUGHTERS OF REVOLUTIOX. Consideration of Amendments to the By-Laws Wn.s Completed Important Changes. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. At today's meeting of the convention of the Daugh ters of the American Revolution, Mrs. Karow, of Georgia, offered a resolution, which was adopted, requesting the ap pointment of a committee to attend the relnterring of the remains of General Nathaniel Green at Savannah, Ga., In May next. An invitation to the congress from the South Carolina delegates that they at tend the Charleston Exposition on South Carolina day was accepted with thanks. On motion of Mrs. McLean, of New York, the congress, by a vote of 273 to 145, reconsidered Its vote of yesterday, laying on the table the amendment to article 7. with respect to appropriating a certain portion of dues to be used toward the erection of a Continental Hall. Mrs. McLean stated that the object of her motion was to secure a full and free discussion of this and all other subjects. She had attended every .congress, she said, and never had such a privilege been accorded. Mrs. Freeman, of New York, opposed the amendment. A number of the Daugh ters were on their feet seeking recogni tion from the 'president-general, and It was with difficulty that the audience could be made to cease talking sufficient ly long for the speakers to be heard. It was evident that those opposed to the amendment would not permit Its adoption without a vigorous protest, and many of them came to the platform and made short addresses. Mrs. McLean closed the debate by ex pressing the opinion that the plan would not accomplish the desired results because one-half of the Income Is at present ap plied to current expenses. This led to an explanation by the treasurer-general which caused her to refer many times to her annual report, a copy of which was in the hands of each dele gate. The report showed a cash balanre in the bank January 31 last of J26.S34. besides Investments of 574.031 in United States Government bonds, whose face value is S6S.O0O. Gross receipt? were J6S.293. Gross expenses. $31,161. The actual current Income of the year amount ed to I29.S61, and the total current fund $C9.1. The question being put, the a-mendment. together with one In connection with it, providing that local chapters shall retain three-fourths of the annual dues and one half of the life membership fees, was lost. An amendment to article S, section 5. of the constitution, relative to reinstatement of members dropped for nonpayment of dues, was adopted. Another proposition to amend article 9, section 1. of the consti tution, providing that proposed amend ments "if indorsed by 12 members of the society or by any organized chapter," may be p:escnted at any conference, was adopted. Mies McKinley, the register-general, then reported that during the year 3S14 member have been added to the rolls, in cluding 49 actual daughters of Revolution ary soldiers. There were Issued 2619 cer tificates of membership, 2G0O permits for the Insignia; 70 permits for ancestral bars. More than 500 additional lines of descent have been approved and verified. The society has 395 descendants! of 42 slgnera of the Declaration of Independence, and has In preparation a reference list of their children, as also of the Brigadier-Generals of the Revolution. The society, the report says, has grown to such numbers that the authenticity of the records has become of vital import ance. The report recommended the adop tion of a resolution that the Revolution ary period hall be held to extend from the resistance to the stamp act (1765) to the treaty of independence In 1795. The report paid tributes to the surviving daughters of the Revolutionary patriots and advocated their enrollment as hon orary members.
