NEW CROP RATES LOWER
BICLGARGO FLEET HAS AN' EFFECT
OX THE FREIGHT MARKET.
John Cooke Chartered at 28 9d
Large Fleet of Inmber Carriers
Headed for Portland.
The effect of a big cargo fleet on the
freight market -was shown yesterday
v. hen the British ship John Cooke vas
chartered for new crop wheat loading at
2Ss 3d, the lowest rate reported for a ship
of .that size since the chartering move
ment began. There are 27 cargo ships en
route and listed for this port, and prac
tically all of them will reach Portland be
fore the wheat shipments next fall are
very heavy. At the same time, a num
ber of ballast ships will also be here, so
that there will not be much of an oppor
tunity for any improvement in freight
rates. There can iiardly be a great profit
in chartering chips at tSs, 9d for wheat
loading, but as the Cooke Is bringing In
ward cargo to assist in sharing the ex
pense of the trip, she is in a better posi
tion to accept the rate than a vessel
would be that was dependent onoutward
cargo alone.
This is the first new crop charter for
Portland loading that has been reported
for several days, and is Is 3d lower than
the last previous engagement. The John
Cooke has loaded here several times, and
is a vessel of 1758 tons net register. She
sailed from Liverpool April 24, with gen
eral cargo for Portland.
BIG LU31BER-CARRIERS.
Numerous Coast-Built Craft of Large
Capacity en Route for Portland.
While big steamship cargoes of lumber
have made Portland famous as an export
er of lumber the world over, the business
of coasting schooners is Increasing quite
rapidly, and some of the Coast built craft
now engaged in the business are very
large carriers. There are three schoon
ers listed for Portland, which have a com
bined carrying capacity of over 3,000,000
feet, or about as much as could have been
carried by 10 of the schooners in service
15 years ago. The largest of this trio Is
the Eldorado, which sailed from Callao
April 21 to load here for the West Coast.
This schooner was built on Gray's har
bor, and carries about 1,200,000 feet of
lumber. The schooner Churchill, with a
capacity of nearly 1,000,000 feet, Is under
charter to load at Portland for Mel
bourne. She is now discharging a cargo
of lumber at San Francisco, and will
come north in ballast next month. The
schooner Fred J. Wood Is another 'of the
new craft which can carry upwards of
1,000,000 feet of lumber. She Is chartered
to load foreign from Portland, and Is
now at Hakodate, Japan, from which port
she will bring a cargo of sulphur to Port
land. , The venerable Tarn O'Shanter, which
still wears a barkentine rig. Is also com
ing up from the West Coast, but can
carry-but little more than half as much
jos some of the fore-and-afi-ers, which
have come into the field where she was
dnceT considered a crack craft. In addi
tion" to the vessels mentioned as headed in
this direction, there are a number of
smaller ones, which in the aggregate will
carry away considerable lumber. Of this
Heet the barkentine Quickstep sailed yes
terday from San Francisco, the schooner
Hepeat May 21, schooner North Bend May
9, schooner Lizzie "Vance May 20, schooner
Alcalde May 27, and barkentine Gleaner
May 12. There Is a possibility that the
square-rigger reported outside last even
ing may on closer Inspection prove to be
the Gleaner.
"WILL RETAIN CONTROL.
Hamburg-American Line Has Become
Only Partially Morganlzed.
HAMBURG, May 28. At a meeting to
day, the shareholders of the Hamburg
American line unanimously adopted a mo
tion, submitted by the directors, with the
view of assuring the control of the com
pany from passing frpm the hands of the
Germans to those of a foreign corpora
tion, provides that the directors -and
board of supervision must be German sub
jects and live in Germany, and that in
order to change this provision or trans
fer the seat of business of the company
to a foreign country or to dissolve the
"company, or do anything Involving the
loss of. or the restriction of independence
of the company in favor of foreign under
taking, it vill be necessary for a resolu
tion to that effect to be adopted by
shareholders representing four-fifths of
the capital at a general meeting, and that
a confirmation of the resolution by the
same majority be adopted at a second
general meeting.
During a long speech, Herr Ballln, director-general
of the Hamburg-American
line, declared the company would not
"stoop to iuch a low trick" as to lend
itself to any 'action by which American
goods would be thrown on the German
market at minimum rates. The Ameri
can railroad, he continued, had no inter
est (In transporting goods at cheap rates
from the 4nterior to the coast in order to
hand them over to the shipping lines. On
the contrary, the railroads suffered be
cause they could not transport sufliclent
goods to the interior.
Herr Ballln further remarked that the
people might rest assured that the arr
rangement.of the German lines with the
bhlpplng lines would redound to the profit
of the German companies. They had not
forgotten the other contracting parties
were Americans.
MYSTERY OF THE SKA.
Schooner Crciv See Strange Sights
WAilc on Voyage From Portland.
The schooner Winchester, which sailed
from Portland with a cargo for Samoa
several months ago, has again reached
her home port, San Francisco, and
brought back with her a tale of mystery.
On the outward voyage from Portland
for the South seas, Captain Christiansen
bays that at 6:45 P. M. on March 2S. while
lying becalmed In latitude 12 deg. north,
longitude 166 deg. west, with overcast sky
and an occasional rain cloud passing over
from the east-southeast, ho observed the
any to ugnt up suaaeniy to a helgnt of
ahoujt 10 degrees and for 30 degrees along
the horizon. The light was a red glow,
northwest of the Winchester, and about
20 miles -distant, so far as could be Judged.
The light remained for about 10 minutes,
when a passing rain cloud obscured It.
For another 10 minutes Captain Chrls--tiansen
saw a bright white light, similar
to a Welsbach In brilliancy, but larger,
and not very distinct, owing to the rain
clouds. The captain made an effort to
So in the direction of, the lights, but was
.unsuccessful, owing to the lack of wind.
He kept a bright light burning during
the- night, and .a sharp lookout, but saw
aompre of the strange lights after the
moon rose a short time later.
POSITION IS ASSURED.
Lord Brassey Sees No Cause for
Alarm-Over Morgan Encroachment
liONDON, May 281 The annual meet
ing of the London Chamber of Commerce,
which was to have be-n held this after
noon, was unexpectedly adjourned owing
to lack of space and air. Hundreds of
business men and merchants crowded Into
tho small room provided for the meeting,
and when Lord Brassey, who presided, at
tempted to open the meeting he was
greeted with demands for adjournment
from the sweltering, half-stifled audience,
whose outcries were Anally acceded to.
Meanwhile printed copies of the presi
dential address were distributed. In It
he urged the improvement of the London
docks, on the lines of those atfew York
and at Hamburg, and 6aid he believed tho
British, on even terms, were well able
to hold their own in Industrial struggles.
Deatfns -with the shipping combine, Lord
Brassey said it was Idle to expect or
claim a monopoly of the North Atlantic.
It was certain sooner or later that soma
movement similar to that Instituted by J.
Pierpont Morgan would be brought by the
United States.
"Let us not lose our national dignity In
unavailing did groundless alarms," the
address continued. "Our position as a
maritime nation is assured beyond the
reach of competition, and we shall hold
our position against all comers, because
we build ships more cheaply, and with or
without foreign crews, sail them more
cheanly than any of our rivals."
Lord Brassey admitted, however, that
the British shipbuilders must look to
their laurels In the construction of ocean
greyhounds of the Hamburg-American
Line steamer Deutschland type, and
urged more liberal subsidies for mail
carrying.
FEARS FOR THE HATZIC.
Sealing Schooner I Believed to Have
Gone Down.
VICTORIA, B. C. May 28. It is feared
that the sealing schooner Hatzlc the
only vessel of the coast fleet which has
not returned to port, has been lost. She
has never been seen since starting on her
Spring cruise, on February 15. Fears
have been expressed for her for some time,
and hepe was not abandoned until today,
when the coast steamer returned without
any news of her. She Is believed to have
been lost in the big storm of February 24.
The Hatzlc Is commanded by Captain
Daley, an old sealer, and besides him there
were on board Captain Farley, Mat? P.
Dooley, A. iMedlna. W. Christian, a Chi
nese cook and 24 Indians from Kyquot, on
the west of the island. Captain Daley
leaves a widow and family. He was one
of the Victoria sealers seized by the Rus
sians and thrown into a Siberian prison
some years ago. Since then the Russian
Government recompensed him. The Hatzlc
is an old schooner. She was the old steam
schooner Dolphin, one of the flrst schoon
ers seized by the United States revenue
cutters In Behring Sea. Afterward she
wap renamed the Louis Olsen, and was a
pilot-boat off the Columbia River, and
later used in running opium Into the
States. She was seized and dismantled at
San Francisco, where Captain Daley
bought her. Last year, she was taken
over by the -Victoria Scaling Company.
Her hull was Insured.
NEW SCHEDULE OF RATES.
Outvrard-Bound Trans-Pacific Busi
ness Is Affected.
Transportation companies have an
nounced a new schedule of rates on outward-bound
trans-Pacific business. It ap
plies to traffic from interior points of the
United States to Japan, and China regular
points of call. Only three or four changes
are noted from the old schedule.
The new rates will go into effect June
1, and will supersede schedule "K," which
took effect February 6. The rate or gen
seng has been raised from $3 50 per ton to
56, from Atlantic seaboard territory and
points West Railroad ties and shovels,
spades and scoops are new Items in the
schedule. The former are rated at 50
cents per 100 pounds, and the latter at
5L The arbltrarles beyond ports of call
show a general reduction in rates.
The regular ports of call are Yokohama,
Kobe, Nagasaki, Shanghai and Hong
Kong. The new schedule affects the Port
land & Asiatic Steamship Company, Can
adian Pacific Steamship line. Northern
Pacific Steamship Company, Occidental &
Oriental Steamship Company, Pacific Mall
Steamship Company, Nippon Yueen Kal
sha and Toyo Klsen Kalsha.
NOT A SaUARE RIGGER.
Barkentine Gleaner Causes a. False
Alarm Front Cape Hancock.
The evening report from the Cape yes
terday announced a "square-rigger out
side and for a time it was thought that
either the Jacobsen or the Cypromene
had been sighted. Pretty nearly every
thing that is not schooner-rigged is a
square-rigger at the Cape, however, and
as the stranger crossed In about dark
she proved to be the barkentine Gleaner,
from San Francisco for Knappton. Un
less there are a few ships of what is
known as the "invisible fleet" headed in
this direction, there are no square-riggers
due here, except the Cypromene or
the Jacobsen.
The Jacobsen comes under charter to
the Portland Grain Company, who yester
day cleared the British ship Lord Shaf tes
burj't and if she gets In today, will have
plenty of time to load and get away in
June. The Cypromene has Inward cargo
and could not discharge and get away
again before new season, and as no other
vessels are known to be due in time for
current season loading, the Portland
Grain Company will probably have both
of the tall-enders of the 1901-2 grain fleet
from Portland.

CAUSE OF EXPLOSION.
Provincial Mineralogist Has Not Yet
Discovered It.
VICTORIA. B. C, May 28. Hon. E. C.
Prior, Minister of Mines, has received by
wire the following report from W. F.
Robinson, Provincial Mineralogist, who
the government sent to Fernle to Investi
gate the explosion In the Crow's Nest Pass
mines:
Seventy-eight bodies recovered to date, eight
today. All parts of the mine searched except
Beaver Deep's district. Air turned Into scene
of their last shift, and three rooms, No. 2 dis
trict, found difficult to dislodge gas, but being
accomplished gradually. Probably six bodies
there. Mine tree from gas, except as noted.
No trace of lire. Since Monday I have been
with relief party through every section. And
I have seen no Indications as to origin of ex
plosion. Certainly not from machine holes, as
popularly reported, as they were found Intact
and had not been loaded. Mine dusty, but no
sign of coked dust to indicate a dust ex
plosion. All bodies probably out In next 24
hours, except those burled under falls of false
roof, through props being blown out, some
places covering large areas. Search being made
is systematic and persistent. General satis
faction being expressed at government grant.
A special from Fernle says:
The threatening attitude of the miners
was succeeded today by quieter and more
orderly conditions. Chief of Provincial
Police Bullock Webster has organized a
strong force of special police, who have
been brought Into town from all parts of
the province. No trouble Is expected until
the convening of the Coroner's Jury Fri
day, when there may be excitement.
The miners are trying to procure' evi
dence to develop at the inquest, which will
result in a government investigation. The
men would like the appointment of a gov
ernment commission upon which the mine
masters, the government and the men
would be equally represented, to fix -detailed
causes of the disaster, and to sug
gest practical amendments tc the mining
laws. James R. Wilson, formerly under
ground superintendent, and who is now
directing the rescue work, states that In
his opinion the explosion was due to the
careless handling of shots before the tests
had shown that no gas or coal dust ex
isted in the neighborhood of the place
where the fatal blast was tamped down.
