WILL DISCHARGE IN MIDSTREAM Official Test of Xevr Dredge "Wednes daySteamboat Officers' Li censes Suspended for a Month. The British ship Holyrood arrived up at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, towed by the steamer Thompson, and dropped anchor in the stream. It Is unusual for a ship with cargo to go to .anchorage, but at the present time Portland's docks are all occupied with ships, loading or discharging, or else the warehouses are full of wheat, so no other course was available. The Holyrood,. which comes from Antwerp, consigned to Balfour, Guthrie & Co.. brings 7S73 steel 40-pound rails, 1573 bundles of steel plates. 62 pack ages of bolts, nuts, etc.; 4600 casks of ce ment, 100 casks of ochre, and 49 casks of terra alba. The rails and other Iron are for the Columbia River & Northern Railroad Company, which is building a 40-mile line from Lyle to Goldendale up the Klickitat River. As the ship cannot get Into a dock, the material will be discharged from her where she lies on to barges, which will be towed up to Lyle, thus do ing away with extra handling of the freight The Holyrood sailed from Antwerp May 14, and Captain Llndley reports an un eventful passage. The ship Is under char ter to Balfour. Guthrie & Co. for wheat loading outward. With her arrival there are four cargo-laden vessels in port, the others being the John Cooke, from Liver pool: the Copley, from Antwerp, and the Addcrley, from Newcastle, N. S. W., the later being in coal. EXD OF TOURIST SEASON. Travel Not Mncli Larger Than In Pre ceding Year. NEW YORK. Oct. 20. By the end of this week most of the American tourists in Europe will have returned and the trans-Atlantic passenger business will be gin to assume Its normal Winter propor tions. The close of the tourist season and the approach of the Winter season have shown themselves already In the passenger lists of the Incoming steamers. The business this year was not more than 1003 passengers greater than It was last year. It may be described as normal normal meaning between 65,000 and 70,000 in one direction. The number traveling westward In the first cabin always is slightly larger than that crossing in the other direction, as a few Immigrants come in that cabin. The coronation did not increase the traffic, but started the east ward migration earlier. The business up to June showed an Increase over that same period for the previous years of' about 1500. From that time forward there was no increase over last year. An interesting phase this year was the increase in the number of castbound steerage passengers over last year. This was In the neighborhood of 24,000. and is ascribed to the desire of many aliens to visit their old homes. LAD EX WITH LUMBER. ZIohnlconn' Hendy to Sail for Shang hai Eight Other VesReLs Loading.

SAYS HIS BULLET WAS IXTEXDED TO KILL "KANSAS." Man Who Killed His Wife. Says He Fired Because He Feared "Kan sas" Would Shoot. George Smith, colored, who is on trial for his life for having killed his white wife, Annie Smith, took the witness-stand yesterday in his own behalf, and endeav ored to convince the Jury that when he shot his wife he thought a iuegro named Ed Potello, commonly called "Kansas, was in the room, and he intended to kill "Kansas," and not the woman. Smith testified that his wife kept slow ly taking her things away from their room over the Boston saloon after she ."got stuck on 'Kansas'." He went to her room to tell her he was going to Astoria and to give her some keys. He met Daisy Watson and he and his wife and Daisy had a drink. Smith said he went down ctalrs and got another drink, and stood talking to his wife at the. door of her room, which was only partly open, and she saw a man cross the room. He stated that his wife had told him the day be fore that "Kansas" would kill him if he came to her room while he was there. He thought the man In the room was "Kan sas," and, seeing him make a demonstra tion, took a quick shot at him. His wife stepped in the way and received the bul let Smith said he didn't go to the room to kill his wife. He explained at consider able length that "Kansas" caused all the trouble and told of quarrels he and "Kan sas" had. The defendant also exhibited a certificate to the jury of the marriage of himself and Annie Smith at Vancouver, Wash. Smith also testified that he has lived here 19 years. His cross-examination will be completed this morning. The man In Mrs. Smith's room was one Collins, and not "Kansas." Smith's mother testified in his behalf, but her evidence was not material. She said he was 33 years old, and that he and his wife appeared to think a great deal of each other. The defendant's sister, Mary White, gave somewhat similar testimony.' Chief of Police McLauchlan, for the prosecution, testified concerning the con fession made by Smith at the city jail. He said Smith at first told him a rambling story to"" the effect that his uncle did the shooting, and subsequently confessed that he was the guilty man. Chief McLauch lan said: "When Smith was first arrested I had a talk with him. He stated that an uncle of his. whom he had not seen n or 14 years, came here on a visit They went to his (Smith's) wife's room, and While ho was pleading with her to go home with him his uncle fired a shot and killed her. The uncle ran down stairs and he picked up the revolver his' uncle had dropped. "Shortly after that Smith, who had been locked up In a cell, sent for me, and said: 'I am going to tell the truth. I did it; I shot her.' " F. McCarthy and Charles Mlers were called as witnesses to impeach the evi dence of Frank Olcese that Smith dis played a pistol before the shooting, and said he was going to get a white person. A. C. Clark was called to testify con cerning threats made by "Kansas" against Smith. Tony Gallagher, a bartender, testified that he heard Oscar Collins, a witness for the state, say that when he got on the witness-stand he was going to rap It to Smith. Gallagher admitted that he has been active In assisting the attorney for the defense to obtain witnesses. Other witnesses called were: W. N. Gatens, C. Zer'es, L. Sturman, Frank Snow, John Cordano, Frank Cummlngs, Joseph Narom, George Franklin and Grlf Roberts. The testimony of these wit nesses was unimportant. Chauncey Ball, a member of the jury, who was taken . sick several days ago, has not yet recovered, and yesterday re clined on a couch during the proceedings. BUILDING BELDIXG'S SCAFFOLD. Bat His Lawyers Arc Still Confident of Securing: a Reprieve. Sheriff Storey yesterday ordered the work of erecting the scaffold for the exe cution of A. L. Beldlng begun, and It will be prosscuted rapidly to a completion, un less the Supreme Court orders the execu tion stayed. The attorneys of the con demned man on Sunday informed the Sheriff that the matter will be attended to at once, and that they were confident of securing an order postponing the exe cution from the higher court The execution, whenever it occurs, will be as private as possible. There will be none present except Sheriffs of the dif ferent counties who desire to attend, the officers In charge of the affair, physicians, the Sheriff's 'jury and press representa tives. Sheriff Storey states that he never had any Intention of Issuing tick ets at J5 apiece and of using the money thus obtained for the benefit of Beldlng's llttlo boy. Such a plan would not receive the approval of the District Attorney, not of Beldlng's attorneys. Beldlng desires to have the child adopted by his brother-in-law, Ed Nodine. OLD DIRECTORS HOLD OX.

Sabln and Everett Smith, brought In the name of the State of Oregon to have them ousted as direc tors of the Sterling Coal Company. Judge Frazer yesterday rendered a decision de clining to order a re-election. The court stated that the law provides that, where directors are ousted, the old board of di rectors will hold over, and in this particu lar case there Is no allegation that the di rectors sought to be ousted are not the old directors, who would thus hold over even If this action succeeded. The court further stated that where the result or the election would have been the same, even If' the complaining party was pres ent at the election of the directors, equity would not order a re-election. The de murrer to the complaint was therefore sustained. LOSES OX THIRD TRIAL. But, Undismayed, Harry Smith Pre pares to Take Appeal. The case of Harry Smith against J. G. & I. N.
