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.

Maher. "I am not familiar with the
horses In Marsh's charge but I have been
Informed that they are all above the
average. I enjoy riding In England very
much, and will continue to ride abroad
as long as I am successful. I always have
been treated fairly by the officials, train

"King Edward has second call on my

amount of riding for His Majesty, be
cause J. Cooper, who has flrrt contract,
owns only a few horses. Mr. Marsh trains
for several men. and I probably tliall

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.
Miss McKinley announced her reslgna-

Diclc littrKe Convicted.
LONDON, Feb. 12. On the resumption
of the hearing of the charges growing
out of the Bank of Liverpool frauds to
day, the defense began with an examin
ation of "Dick" Burge. the pugilist, or.e
of the accused mvn." He testified that he
made 30,uX) from boxing during the last
10 years, that he had known Lawrle
Marks, the missing American bookmaker,
for IS months, and that he advanced him
"jd in October last on the understand
ing that they were to divide the profits
of Marks business. Subsequently. Marks
informed the witness that James Mances
(an American bookmaker, who is sup
posed to have been connected with the
robberies) has a rich friend in Liverpool,
and insisted that he (Burge) go there
with Mances. as a Iqt of money might be
made by their transactions. Burge said
he never saw Thomas Goudle. the ac
cused bookkeeper, until he met him in
Halloway jail. The witness never knew
that Mances was a friend of Goudie's,
and never suspected the checks were
forged. When he heard of the Bank of
Liverpool frauds he had no Idea that
Marks and Mances were connected with
them.
Burge was found guilty. Sentence in
his case was postponed until the trial of
the other accused men is completed.
The Zionist Movement.
LONDON. Feb. 19. The leaders of the
Zionist movement anticipate important
developments as a result of the visit of
Dr. Tneodore Herzel, of Vienna, presi
dent of the Zionist Congress, recently

nople. Dr. Herzel was summoned to the
Ylldiz Palace by a special telegram from

sentative of the Jewish Colonization As
sociation, which was endowed by the late

111 BLOOD,
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases, hey are known
by various names, but are all du"e to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate arrd interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
nsed in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.

the liase the first bottle v.as finished theeruption;
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.
She 13 now seventeen years old. and nota sign of
the embarrassing disease has ever returned."
