THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1902. FOR LINE TO ALASKA Board of Trade to Incorpo rateSteamship Company. RESOLUTION ON SANITARIUM Institution Indorsed and Encouraged The Plan for .Portage Road Around The Dalle Is Pro gressing Favorably. The Board of Trade last night resolved to file articles of Incorporation of the Portland & Alaska Steamship Company, tad to raise a minimum capital of 525.000. The board commended tho work and ob jects of the Portland Sanitarium, to the people of this city, in the following resolu tion: Resolved, That the Portland Sanitarium bo accorded the Indorsement of this board; that Us course and enterprises be commended to the public as most worthy of substantial support, and that a special committee of five members be appointed by the president of this board, further to confer with and to assist the sani tarium In carrying out its plans for building up a permanent institution in this city. This committee will be appointed by President Beach on his return from East ern Oregon, where he has gone with other Portland citizens in the interest of the Lewis and Clark fair. The committee will co-operate in the public effort to raise means to keep the institution In Portland and to permit tho development that Is necessary to its proper functions. Alexander Kunz, chairman of the Alas ka steamship committee reported that the outlook for a line from Portland Is exceedingly favorable. He had so far done little or no canvassing, but had re ceived assurances which indicated the success of the line. Two mercantile Arms had each f guaranteed to ship to Alaska 50 tons of freight by each steamer. A third will ship 1200 tons from Portland In the next four months. It will bring back in the Fall over 1000 tons of salmon. This firm had been Invited by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company to sign a con tract for shipment from Seattle, but was willing to give the business to a Portland line. "These three firms alone have guar anteed 175 tens for each steamer, or 5U.O00 in freight charges," said Mr. Kunz. He also said the third firm would take from J500 to ?1000 of the capital stock. "The line can be put Into operation within a month." he declared. He insisted upon immediate action, because the summer season in Alaska is short Establishment of the line, he argued, was as Important to Portland as completion of The Dalles portage road. "But we cannot succeed," he went on, "unless we go at the business with confidence and show to shippers that we are working not for preliminaries, but for permanent results." Proposals from several steamship own ers were presented. The Homer, 600 tons carrying capacity, was offered for ?2S00 a month, cost of coal and expenses of purser to be additional. The Santa Ana, fcOO tons, and the Noxno City, 1000 tons, were also offered, on which charter rates were to be fixed later. Mr. Kunz said vessels desired were between 400 and 700 tons capacity, and that 1000 tons was too large. He said the line would lose money at first, but that after it had existed a year It would lose no longer and other steamship lines and shippers generally would recognize it as a fixture. The minimum rail rate of H to Seattle ho declared was now an embargo on Port land's trade with Alaska. "Why not raise the 525,000 in quarterly payments?" was nsked. "Because it would take at least 50 per cent of the capital to get the line start ed," Mr. Kunz replied. "Why not raise 550,000?" asked James Steel. "Because $25,000 is sufficient" Finally It was resolved to file articles of Incorporation of the company and to appoint a committee to canvass for stock. The Incorporators will be R. F. Prael, John C. Carson and W. B. Glafke. B. Lee Paget and Samuel Connell, who were requested by the board to Inspect the Portland Sanitarium,, filed a report commending the institution. It is in part as follows: Other communities are alive to the ad vantages of the Portland Sanitarium, and overtures have already been made, asking for its removal. One of our Northwest cities nas offered lands and buildings val ued at 510,000, and substantial propositions have been received from other cities with in this territory. We have some ground for belief that public spirit In Portland has been roused to such an extent that some plan will be devised to keep this worthy institution in our midst The handicaps encountered are unsuita blllty of location and lack of room. The trustees have 530.000 available for building purposes. Suitable plans have been pre pared for a four-story brick building, but the difficulty Encountered Is how to pro cure a well-adapted site, but the manage ment feels that. In view of the methods pursued, results accomplished and future attainments assured, they have a case which they can submit to the public with reasonable assurances that a generous and hearty response will be made. Another feature which no doubt justi fies an appeal to the public for help Is the fact that the charitable work already done runs into thousands of dollars, and repre sents an actual expense which would oth erwise have devolved upon the county. We have no hesitancy In saylntr that as a hospital and charitable Institution and as a manufacturing establishment, the Portland Sanitarium is entitled to- the fullest indorsement of this board, and the moral and financial support of the general public. Joseph Gaston, chairman of the rail road committee, reported good progress with the portage enterprise. Nearly all the papers for organization have been prepared. Pledges have been received already for nearly 5100,000 of the 5300,000 to be raised by bond sales. Steamboat men have altered to build boats above and below the road, so that the new company may be spared that expense. Mr. Gaston said the road will be ready for this season's crops. "So Politics In Silver JTott. New York Evening Post. The most-striking fact about this week's fall In silver to 23 5-16 pence per ounce a lower price than was ever before touched in the history of the world is the world's complete indifference to the news. To realize how great a change In popular feeling is thus chronicled, the mind needs' to run back to 1S33, when silver broke to 30 pence per ounce on the stopping of India's free coinage and the call of Con gress to repeal the Bllver-purchase law. All of us remember the dire warnings and threats which at that period filled the air. even In high financial circles. Two groups of prophets devoted them selves to alarming the public as to the consequences of these moves. One, which may be called the political group, dem onstrated that as sliver's price declined, so must the prices of all other staple commodities. These declines were to be permanent in their nature, and utterly ruinous to industry in their effects. The second 'group of prophets intimated that, since sliver could be mined no longer at a profit production would stop until bankruptcy had driven the miners into one world-wide truat, which would thence forth fix the price of silver. Recalled In the light of this week's situa tion, it is hard to say which of these two predictions was the more absurd. Sliver last Monday reached a price some 7 pence per ouhco below the -low level of 1S93 a decline of no less than 23 per cent Yet this occurs In the lace of the highest price of the generation for almost every staple; - when the community's problem appears to be, not how to make a profit on production, but how to re strain the general rise in- the cost' of liv ing. As for the silver trust and Its cer tain curtailment of production, all that need be said Is that In 1901, with the price of the metal falling steadily from January to December, the world produced more silver by 2,500,000 ounces than was mined in any previous year of history. It Is not surprising, therefore, that the announcement of a new "low-record price" fails to stir the slightest flutter, even on the' floor of Congress. At the present price of silver the bullion value of the silver dollar is between S6 and 37 cent3. THE PACIFIC CABLE. Congress IsiToo Bust "With, Sugar to Do Needful Business. Chicago Inter Ocean. There are 13 cables across the Atlantic between the United States and Europe. There is not one across the Pacific be tween the United States and Asia, The construction of a Pacific cable has been under discussion In the United States and England for 20 years. Up to 1898 no project took definite form because no one govern ment possessed along any practicable route landing places or islands on which CUP WHICH PRESIDENT JEFFERSON PRESENTED TO HIS PASTOR. THE PROPERTY OF AN ELMA, "WASH., MAN. ELMA, Wash., May 12.-Marahal C. E. Clay, of this city, is the proud possessor of a cup which was presented to his grandfather, the Rev. Charles Clay, "by President Thomas Jefferson. The inscription on the cup shows that the presentation was made In 1799. It is as follows; THOMAS JEFFERSON to C. CLAY. .August 15, 1773. The cup is 60lid silver, five Inches m height, and four Inches in' diam eter. Bev. Charles Clay was a first cousin of Henry Clay, one of the most famous men in American history. He was a warm personal friend of President Jefferson, and once served as pastor of-his church k- cables could bo landed and the electric current reinforced. When the United States came into pos session of Hawaii, Guam and the Phil ippines, the landing places were at our command and great Impetus was given to. the project for an all-Amerlcan cable from San Francisco to Manila and from there to Kong Kong. There always had been good commercial Teasons for tho construc tion of the cable, but after the annexa tion of the Philippines there were the best of political reasons. Statesmen as well as capitalists in the United States and England saw the im portance on the one hand of an ail-American cable and on the other of an all British cable, Surveys were made about the same time for an American line and for a British line. The American cable was to extend from San Francisco 2078 miles to Hawaii, from there 1140 miles to Midway Island, from there 2233 miles to Guam, and from there 1360 miles to Ma nila. A survey was made also for a line from Hawaii 2000 miles to Wake Island, and from there 1204 miles to Guam. Tho British line was to extend from Vancouver 3205 miles to Fanning Island, from there southwest 1884 miles to the FIJI Islands, from there S65 miles to Norfolk Island, and from there, 751 mlleB to Graf ton, in Australia, or to Sydney. A branch line was to extend from Norfork Island to Auckland. In New Zealand. The American project presented fewer difficulties than the British. As the latter called for united action on the part of the imperial government and the Canadian and Australian governments, It was taken for granted that there would be more delay In entering upon work on the Brit ish line. But the three governments came -to an agreement contracts were let for the laying of tho cable, and a few days ago the section between the Fill Islands and Sydney, Australia, was opened for business. A bill for an all-Amerlcan Pacific cable was passed by the Senate April 11, 1000. This bill with amendments was reported to the House last January. The President in his message, recommended Immediate consideration of the project, but no action has been taken. Meantime, a contract for the construction of a commercial cable from San Francisco to Honolulu has been let to a British company. With the completion of the Pacific ca ble from Australia to Vancouver, Great Britain, Raving already a cable from Aus tralia to the Cape of Good Hope, and a government line from Vancouver across Canada and from there across the Atlan tic, will have a complete circuit around the world. ' In case of war, England would have an almost Incalculable advantage over the United States in the Pacifio Ocean, which we have hoped to control. There is small opportunity for the United States to boast of American enterprise when Congress haggles and heBltates over the laying Of a Pacific cable while England, Australia and Canada, are building one. TRUSTS IN LOUISIANA. Governor Hcnrd's Message to the Lcffivlntare. BATON ROUGE, May 12. The biennial session of the Louisiana Legislature be gan at noon today.

PUSHING TO GOLDENDALE PROGRESS OF THE COLUMBIA RIVER & NORTHERN RAILROAD. Survey Completed, Contract for Con struction Soon to Be Let, Purchase of Ties and Rolling Stock. Definite location of the Columbia River & Northern railroad up the. Klick itat Hiver to Goldendale has been made and the map win be filed in a few days. Chief Engineer Oliver is now In Portland attending to the completion of this record. The distance is found to be 42 miles. The road will cross the Klickitat River twice. At Lyle it will start on the t;ast side, nearly three miles up it will cross to the west side and a dozen miles further up It will recross to the east side and go out through Swale canyon to the valley of Klickitat Creek, in which Goldendale Is situated. Practically all the right of way has been secured and construction 0 win be pushed as fast as the various steps can be taken. Contracts will be signed to day' for 120, 000 ties for the. new road. Rails for it are already afloat having been purchased some time ago In Belgium. G. W. Simons, of tho Pacific Bridge Company, will leave for the East Thursday to purchase roll ing stocq for the Toad. This will con sist of two locomotives, two passenger coaches, a dozen box cars and about 40 fiat cars. Arrangements will be made for delivery of tho rolling stock by the time the road shall be ready for It, late In the summer. Specifications for thev track construction will be prepared fn a few day and bids will then be asked for grading and for laying the rails. The railroad com pany will not do this work. A wharf boat will also be necessary at Lyle and the contract for that will soon be awarded." All the preparations for get ting the new road in condition for busi ness" by harvest time -will be completed within the coming two weeks, and it will then be merely the matter of pushing operations to a conclusion on the plans already matured. LINING UP PASSENGER RATES. Chief Rate Clerics of Lines In the Northwest Meet in Portland. Passenger representatives of the trans continental railroads that reach the Pa cific Northwest met In Portland yes terday and will be engaged here all week In checking up passenger rates to East ern points. The Great Northern Is rep resented by T. B. Cudworth, of St Paul, chief passenger rate clerk; the Northern Pacific by C. B. Sealy, of St Paul, chief nassenger rate clerk; the Oregon Short Line by J. B. Durham, of Salt Lake City, chief passenger, rate clerk; the O. R. & N. by W. B. Coburn, chief passenger rate clerk; the Canadian Pacific, by E. J. Coyle, of Vancouver, assistant general nassenRer acent The Smithom pmak was not represented at the meeting yes terday, but General Freight and Passen .ger Agent Miller will probably take a hand in the proceedings before the end of the week. It is not the purpose of this meeting to make any new rates, and no changes will be made, in the fares to Eastern centers. But there are a great many places the rates to which are built up taking a cer tain basis and adding a certain local to It. A point that is, for example, half way between St Paul and Omaha, which may be reached equally well by use of the Union Pacific or over one of the northern lines, will be served either way at tho same price. But the desire of the railroads to handle all tho business they can get and the number of dif ferent routes often available from the Eastern centers frequently lead to vari ous quotations by the several companies when there should be but one. or to but one quotation where differences should appear. The complexity of the rate problem and the competition be tween different lines often bring Incon sistencies into practice that it is desirable to eliminate. This Is done by representa tives of the lines getting together and "lining up" the rates so there wltt be uniformity In the fares exacted. About a year ago such a meeting was held in St Paul, a year before It was held in Winnipeg. n. GRAY'S HARBOR TROLLEY LINE. Portland Men Said to Have Acquired an .Interest in It. ABERDEEN, Wash., May 12. Drake C. O'Reilly, formerly assistant general freight agent of the O. R. & N. Company, and M. J. Roche, of the Rio Grande lines, arrived here from Portland Saturday night to investigate the Aberdeen & Ho quiam Eelectrlc Railway proposition, with a View to acquiring an interest in the company and becoming actively connected ..-.. . .w.. ... c..u uyuuuvu Ul Vile ,ro&d. A careful- inspection of the route Dciween in cuy ana xioquiam was made by these men in company tPlth the offi cials of the road, and so well pleased were they with the outlook that they closed a deal for all of the holdings of E. B. Benn In the company. Mr. O'Reilly expressed the opinion that the Aberdeen & Hoqulam line has the best prospects of any new enterprise of the kind in the Northwest He went up to Tacoma this morning to meet the Northern Pacific officials to settle the con tract entered Into with that road, for lay ing the rails on the new line from, the American mill to a connection with the Hoqulam division, a distance of over a mile out Market street (Mr. Roche yesterday said that he and Mr. O'Reilly had been in the Gray's Har bor country and bad incidentally looked over the route between Aberdeen and Ho qulam. but had come to no conclusion aa to acquiring any interest In the enterprise. Ho did not deny, however, that negotia tions of some sort were pending. The proposed trolley line will be about four and one-half miles long.) SECTION OF LAND TIED UP Question as ti Character of Tract Selected by Railroad. OREGON CITY, May" 12. The whole of Section 9, township 8 south, range 4 east, has been tied up by order of the Commissioner of the General Land Office, owing to a question being raised as to the character of the land, which Is situated on Ogle Mountain, on the headquarters of the Molalla River. The section was selected by the .Northern Pacific Railroad Company November 7, 1S99, In lieu of tracts relinquished In the Pacific Forest Reserve. Last year the Clackamas Min ing & Milling Company was fonmed, and undertook some development work on the land, which Tesultcd In the finding of valuable mineral deposits. On this ground the Clackamas. Mining & Milling Company and Henry and Wales Russell filed con tests agaiiwfcHhe olalm of the Northern Pacific to determine the character of the land. The Government ordered a survey of Township 8 in September, 1S93. and when the survey was filed. September 12, 1S91, the land was not returned as mineral; but It appears from protests filed In the land office that adverse claims were In itiated prior to the selection of the North ern Pacific Land Contests Set for Hearing. The following contests have been set for hearing In the United States Land Office: Howe vs. Fenton, May 15; Royal vs. Smith, May 16; Addington vs. Mortensbn, May 1G; Nixon vs. Rogers, May ID Mur phy Vs.
