MADE STEAMER TIME.
Remarkable Passage of the Largest
Square-Rigged Bark In the World.
The achievements of the five-masted
steel bark Preussen, 50SI tons, built In
1902 for the Laeisz Shipping Agency, of
Hamburg, the largest square-rigged
bark in the world, have excited much
interest of late, says the New York Ma
rine Journal. The most remarkable per
formance of the Preussen thus far has
been the completion of the voyage from
the English Channel to Iqulque, Chile,
a distance of 12.000 miles. In 57 days
about the time made by the steam freight
ers engaged in the South American trade.
On this voyage the vessel took her de
parture from Ouessant March 5, 1903, and
crossed the line March IS. 13 days out, es
tablishing a record never before equaled
by a sailing .ship. The parallel of 50 de
grees south in the Atlantic was attained
April 10, and in the Pacific April 21, 11
days being thus "spent In weathering that
most tempestuous of regions. Cape Horn.
tFroin noon of April 23 to noon of April
24, the vessel laid down 3G8 miles to her
credit, this being the best day's run
throughout the voyage. The anchor was
dropped in the harbor of Iqulque May
X which made 57 days from point of de
parture to destination.
Faster Than the Law Allows.
Warrants were sworn out yesterday on
complaint of Harbormaster Ben Blglin,
charging Captain J. W. Johnson, of the
steamer Charles R. Spencer, and Captain
Bid H. Scammon, of the steamer Dalles
City, with navigating their boats through
the harbor faster than the city ordlnantes
permit. The papers will be served when
the steamers reach this city this after
noon. Harbormaster BIglin's attention
was called to the matter by the skipper
of the French bark Marechal de Noailles,
who reported that the swells raised by
the boats led him to fear that his craft,
-which is moored at one of the lower docks,
.might turn turtle.
Lumber Cargoes for China.
The schooner Henry K. Hall has sailed
lor Tsingtau, China, with 1.453,005 feet of

cargo at Inman, Poulsen & Co.'s mill and
will sail in a few days for Shanghai. The
Samar filled her crew yesterday by ship
ping six seamen from the sailor board-Jng-house.
Like the Hall, she had to
Jiavo recourse to the boarding-house men,
as the Sailors Union could not furnish
men for the over-sea voyage.

CIVIC? IKPBOVEMENT IECTTJEE
E. S. Thomas, of Dayton, O., to Speak
at the Marquam.
The lecture to be given by E. S.
Thomas, of Dayton, O., at the Mar
quam Theater next Saturday evening,
-will be interesting and instructive. Mr.
Thomas comes to Portland upon the invi
tation of the Civic Improvement Asso
ciation. His lecture will be illustrated
throughout with stereoptlcon views. It
clearly demonstrates that Improved
juathods and sanitary conditions are
profitable to employer and employes alike.
HI suggestions concerning boys gar
dens, landscape gardening, etc, are
backed by actual experience and show
how the "city beautiful" can be easily
attained by a proper direction of effort.
Suggestion for local application will be
made showing how Portland can profit
immensely by adopting the methods suc
cessful elsewhere.
Mr. Thomas has delivered similar lec
tures before clubs, schools and prominent
organizations throughout the United
States and England. "While a compara
tively young mau he has had considerable
experience upon the platform and has
met with much success. Mingling pa
thos with humor he tells of conditions
as they existed before the new era of
welfare in large manufacturing concerns
and department stores. Seats are free in
all parts of the theater, and a delightful
evening is assured to alL
GEM CLUB TO STAY CLOSED.
Mayor Forbids Reopening of Gambling-House.
After consultation with 'Chief Hunt,
Mayor "Williams announced yesterday
that he had Issued an order to the head
of the Police Department not to allow
the Gem Club on Sixth street, near
"Washington, to reopen under new man
agement. "If the men who were running the place
are out of business now, as I hear, I cer
tainly will not allow any new men to open
there. I have given an order to Chief
Hunt to that effect," he said.
So, in all probability, the rattle of the
xoulette ball and the clicking of chips
will not be audible to evening prome
naders on Sixth street for some time to
come. For the past few weeks the Gem
gambling-house has been under the
weather, and these pleasant sounds have
been missed.
EugeneBlazler Is reported to be de
sirous of reopening the Gem. But the
authorities evidently consider that
Blazler already has enough to do in the
gambling-house line, with the Burnside
street establishment and the First-street
place of his brother running full blast.
The order of Mayor "Williams Is follow
ing out his policy onot allowing any new
gambling 'Institution to start in business
here. The havoe in the poolroom trade
was caused by his declaration that the
Applcgate poolroom should never open.
It never has, although a majority of the
Council were willing that it should do so
under a fine system, which was also to
be applied to the existing poolroom, that
of the Portland Club. Now both pool
rooms are dark.
The Gem Club has been the plum for
-which a number of boss gamblers have
unsuccessfully reached at one time "or
another. Rumors of a change in owner
ship have been rife for months, but now
that the old proprietors have retired
from business, the famous establishment
is apparently doomed.
METERS FOR WATER-WASTERS
Water Board Buys Large Supply and
Defeats Eight-Hour Resolution.
For the benefit of householders who
waste city water, 730 water meters were
yesterday afternoon purchased by the
"Water Board. The Neptune Meter Com
pany, of New York, was the successful
bidder, the price being $5600. The bids
had been opened Monday at a special
meeUng and referred to Engineer Clarke
for a recommendation. Following the re
port submitted, the board awarded the
contract to the New York company.
Councilman Bentley's resolution asking
that the "Water Board cut down the
working day of gatetenders and others
forced to work 12 hours a day, although
the charter specifies that eight hours
shall be a day's work, was respectfully
tabled on motion of "W. M. Ladd.
The salary of M. F. Gorgan, a surveyor
of the "Water Board, was increased to $100
a month. Four surveyors in the City En
gineer's Department have just had their
pay raised to $125 a month for practically
the same class of work.
A number of petitions for better water
service were received and referred to the
superintendent and engineer. Russell &
Blyth asked for a water main for a large
tract on the higher portion of "Willam
ette Heights.
Those Shacks Hard to Kill.
The Palace de Kamm, at First and
"Washington streets, has "been given an
other lease of life. The shacks wrill not
be torn down until June 1, because City
Attorney McNary had been reliably in
formed that the tenants have paid their
rent until that date. Ho has received no
reply from Jacob Kamm, the owner, re
garding a date for the destruction of the
ruins.
WILL LIQUIDATE ITS AFFAIRS
Large New York Firm Decides to
Pay Out Gradually.
NEW YORK, May 1L One of the great
est dry goods jobbing houses in the coun
try. Sweetser, Pembroke & Co., of this
city, established in 1854. has adopted a
policy of gradual liquidation. After a
meeting of the directors just held, the
anouncement was made and a statement
issued as follows:
"Owing to the death of President J. H.
Sweetser and the present business condi
tions, the officers and board of directors
of the corporation have concluded to adopt
a policy of gradual liquidation, without at
present determining the question whether
the company shall be ultimately wound
up or shall continue its business.
"It is the belief of the officers and
board of directors that the assets of the
company are able to pay all business obli
gations and leave a good surplus for a
dividend for the stockholders holding pre
ferred stock."
Ten bankers and manufacturers, rep
resenting one-half the firm's entire lia
bilities, will act as an advisory commit
tee. The concern Is capitalized at $1,500.
(M0. divided- equally into common and
preferred sharea
The tendency recently developed on the
part of manufacturers to eliminate the
Jobber or middleman and his profits is
said to have been largely responsible for
the plan of liquidating the company's af
fairs. The firm had hundreds of employes
and salesmen all over the country, al
though in recent years most of Its busi
ness has been done in and about New
York. It Is said to have amounted to
nearly $10,000,000 a year. All the common
stock is said to be held by employes.

man Lloyd steamer Kaiser "Wllhelm der

the Panama Canal and all the papers
connected with the transfer. They ex
pressed themselves entirely satisfied with
the success of their mission and gratified
at the government's recognition of M.
Bunau-Varilla, who materially aided them
in their work.
CAN'T RUN UP CASCADES
STEAM BOATMEN BELIEVE FEAT
IS IMPOSSIBLE.
They Doubt- Ability of Charles R.
Spencer or Any Other Boat
to Do the Trick.
The announcement made yesterday in
The Oregonlan by Captain E. "W. Spencer,
of the river steamer Charles H. Spencer,
that he would continue his through run
to The Dalles whether the Cascade Locks
closed, or not, brought all the steamboat
men In town to a sitting posture early
in the morning. Iater they went down
to the river-front but said nothing of
their surprise. They hated to accuse
Captain Spencer of saying he could run
up the Cascades without knowing that he
could. They hesitated to communicate
their doubts on his ability to do the
trick. For hours they Ignored Captain
Spencer's threat as much as if he had
said he was about to run his craft on a
heavy dew, but finally an O. R. & N.
captain, exasperated by the silence, went
on Tecord with the statement:
"It's a good boat that can make Sheri
dan Point when the locks are closed."
"I've seen extremely good boats that
: ever reached the whistling point," com
mented another steamboatman.
"If they get the Spencer above tho
locks before they close they can. run her
down once all right, but that's all there
Is to it," said the third.
There was not a steamboatman who
considered the running of the Charles R.
Spencer up the Cascades anywhere near
practicable except Captain Spencer him
self, and though they all hesitated to say
anything against a good fellow like the
gallant captain, they were all in the
"show-me" stage.
Captain F. B. Jones, who owns a num
ber of stern-wheelers that help navigate
rafts of logs to the Portland sawmills, re
marked: "Spencer might as well try to run his
boat up hill as up the Cascades. He.
simply can't do It."
The fact Is that all things from a slab
of wood to a scow can, and. have come
down over the Cascades, but nothing
larger than a salmon has ever gone up
It, and old steamboatmen are naturally
rather skeptical when they hear some
body Is going to push his steamboat
past it.
"The situation is this," said a deliber
ate old rlverman whose words" on his
one subject are golden. "I don't know
how fast the river runs in high water,
but below the lo-ks at least it is wprse
than at low water. I was on the Harvest
Queen when she ran down the rapids, in
'89 and for three boats' lengths wo lost
control of her and only after we swung
to in the current below "Umatilla reef
did we get steerage way again. I've been
around the Horn and have seen a sea
or two, and I don't like to see a boat
loose steerage way, and there is not a
boat on the Columbia River that can
come down the rapids or try to go up
either without losing steerage way. They
have not got the speed. I don't know
how fast that river goes at that point,
but going down at full speed you lose
control of the boat entirely and that
means it is going much faster than the
boat. "When I hear some one say he is
going to climb the rapids, all I say is
take me along, I want to see it done."
The captains all say that the current
is much stronger in high than at low
water below the locks from the place
known as Sheridan Point, a quarter of a
mile below the locks, and it takes a
great deal of headway to work up
against it- to the foot of the locks. Be
yond that they know nothing from ex
perience, none of them really having at
tempted the run. Captain Spencer and
the old sea dog mentioned being the only
ones who seem to hunger for the journey.
They consider it impracticable to a man
and do not think Captain Spencer or
any one else can do it.
Captain . "W. Troup brought down the
Harvest Queen in 18S9, Captain Marshall
brought down the D. S. Baker, tho
Hassalo and R. R. Thompson also mado
the hazardous" journey and many scows
and wharfboats have done likewise.
Years ago the Umatilla went to grief on
the rocks there. But nover a boat went
the other way except the scow that Joe
Latourette "warped" up through the run
where now the locks are located. That
was in historic times and the scow was
not very big.

Strubk in Self-Defense.
Mrs. Anna SiriannI says her husband,
Paul, gave her a brutal beating Tuesday
evening at their horned 210 Clay street. The
husband admits he struck his wife, but
says she attacked him and he had to act
in self-defense or the woman would have

nicipal Judge Hogue in Police Court, yes

the slightest reason for his attack upon
her and discredited his story that she
was seeking a divorce. The court held
that a man has no excuse for beating his
wife and fined the defendant $25.

SCOUT THEORY OF SUICIDE.
Relatives of Wealthy Callfornlan
Now Talk of Murder.
NEW YORK, May 11. It Is asserted
by the mother and sister of Harold A.
Clarke, says a World dispatch from
Paris, that the wealthy young Callfor
nlan who was found dead in his room
in a Paris hotel Monday, did not com
mit suicide, despite the fact that all
circumstances point that way. His sis
ter, Mrs. Lyman, said:
"Harold's body was found lying
across the foot of the bed in evening
dress, with one foot crossed peacefully
over the other. The hotel manager
was Indignant when I pointed out how
easily a person could have entered the
room through one of the windows.
Harold was 31 years old, but did not
look to be over 22. He spent Friday
evening with us after his return from
Monte Carlo, and he was particularly
gay, making light of his losses, which
he admitted sustaining. He was not
pressed for money,, for he had a few
thousand francs in the hotel office.
Neither did he have any love affair, so
far as we know."
Clarke dined at a restaurant Sunday
evening. He entered the. hotel at about
10 P. M. The employes say they heard
the shot half an hour later. Clarke had
taken a revolver from the bottom of
his trunk. They ridicule the idea that
It was anything but suicide, but admit
that Clarke had some thousands of
francs in the hotel safe.
HOW JELLIES ARE MADE.
Starch and Grape Sugar ingredients
of California Article.
Starch and grape sugar this is the re
sult of the analysis of cheap jellies, con
ducted by H. V. Tartar, assistant commis
sioner and chemist of the Oregon Dairy
and Food Commission, under the direc
tion of State Dairy and Food Commis
sioner J. W. Bailey. The jellies com
plained of were made in California and
were sold here in 10, 15 and 20-pound
palls. Only three or four grocery houses
handled them, and now that their true
character has become known they will
be taken off the market.
The analysis showed: Grape sugar,
56 1-16 per cent; fruit juice, 43 per cent;
jelly set, 1-16 per cent, and vegetable red
color, a trace.
Tests of olive oils, vanilla extracts and
catsups are also going on. A rule will go
Into effect July 1, passed last year at the
annual convention of the National Asso
ciation of State Food and Dairy Depart
