HER DESTINATION A MYSTERY
Officers Persist in Denying She Will
Go to Vladivostok Greatest' Se
crecy Maintained by All
Connected With Steamer.
The steamship Olympia, which was
chartered by Russian agents to carry a
supply of forage to Vladivostok, will be
gin loading her cargo at Montgomery
dock this morning. The vessel spent yes
terday at Greenwich dock, where Pilot
Pope moored her on account of the heavy
fog- at the time of her arrival, and in the
evening she was shifted to the other .side
of the river.
The steamer will take out from Portland
2800 tons of oats and barley, which will
be supplied about equally by Kerr. Gif
lord & Co. and Balfour. Guthrie & Co.
According to the present plans, she will
not carry any "beef. The officers .expect
to get away by Wednesday or Thursday,
but It Is doubtful If all the cargo will be
aboard by that time.
The Olympia is in command cf Captain
H. P. Weaver, who denied most emphat
ically that she was going to a Russian
.port. "We have not yet received our sail
ing orders," said he, "but will probably
go to Japan." Captain Willey, represent
ing the owners of the steamer, the North
west Commercial Company, of Tacoma.
came over from the Sound to look after
the company's interests, and he, too,
declared that the story of the steamer
preparing to run the blockade wa ficti
tious. He said the destination of the
cargo had not been determined upon, but
inferred that the vessel might go to
Shanghai. Mr. Ottenheimer. of Salem,
the agent of the charterers, said to be a
San Franciflco Arm acting for the Rus
sian government, also professed to be un
informed as to the future movements of
the steamer.
All this did not shake the confidence of
the wise ones along the water front that
the Olympia will clear for Shanghai, or
any other Oriental port, and then head
by the most advantageous route for the
Russian City of Vladivostok. The steam
er Tacoma, chartered by the same Rus
sian agents from the ame shipping firm,
cleared through the Seattle Cuztom-House
for Shanghai, but the people interested
have not yet been able to explain how her
cargo some 9000 cases of mess beef Is to
be fed to. the Chinese of that city. They
are equally at a loss to explain what the
Celestials can do with the oats and bar
ley that the Olympia will take. The
statement that the freight Is intended for
the Japanese forces does not hold water,
as in that case the vessels would have
cleared direct for Kobe or Yokohama.
All these facts, combined with the se
crecy maintained by the people connect
ed with the steamer or her cargo, go to
make up a chain of circumstantial evi
dence that is strong enough to convince
the watcr-fronters that the Olympia will
load contraband cargo for the Russian
army.

BRITISH SHIP WRECKED.
Unknown Vessel Lost .on Reefs of
Mandai Island.
The well-known schooner O. M. Kellogg,
which has Just arrived at San Francisco
from Rara. .brings the news that the
wreck of a big four-masted British ship,
name unknown, is on the reefs that sur
round the Island of Mandai. They re
ceived their Information at Rara from a
little tramp schooner which arrived there
with supplies on board which its captain
had bought from the master of the lost
ship.
Nothing is known in coast shipping cir
cles of any wreck of the kind. There are
several sailing vessels of this tonnage
bound out from Australia which may
have met disaster in that part of the
Pacific, for they are not yet reported to
have arrived at their destination. There
are also other large British ships bound
to this coast from Europe which might
have piled themselves up on the reefs of
Mandai. for it Is fairly In the path of
ships for making the North Pacific trade,
The wrecked ship is said to have been
bound from Australia to some South
American port which is near Mandai reef.
It is surmised that the shipwrecked crew
has reached either Auckland or Tahiti be
fore this time and will be heard from
later.
Fears for Philippine Steamer.
MANILA. Jan. 9. The owners of the
iron screw, three-masted steamer Legazpl
have given up all hope of the vessel,
which probably foundered In the China
Sea. The Legarpi carried seven passen
gers and had a crew of 60 Filipinos. Her
captain was a Spaniard and her first of
ficer an American.
The British steamer Nanshan has re
turned here after an unsuccessful search
for the Legazpi. A British gunboat from
Hong Kong is still searching for her.
The Legazpl was owned by Irbar & Co..
of Manila. She "was of 840 tons.
Turner off for Melbourne.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Jan. .-(Special.)
The schooner Matthew Turner has final
ly got away on a voyage to Melbourne.
Australia. The Turner arrived in port
some time ago, with her canvas all blown
away and part of her rigging and some
of her masts gone. When she was being
towed to the Wilson Bros.' mill to be
Joaded she was -fouled by another vessel
and damaged to a considerable extent,
and had to be repaired.
Friday the captain had orders to sail
for Sydney, Australia, but when she had
been towed to West port and was waiting
to cross the bar a telegram was received
by Mr. Wilson asking him to notify the
captain of the Turner to Kail for Mel
bourne, fvhich made necessary a change
in her sailing papers.
Claims Loot as Wreckage.
ABERDEEN. Wash., Jan. 9. (Special.)
Judge Irwin has taken under advise
ment the case of Fred Foster, of Ho
qulam, against Fred Prathe, which was
tried in the Superior Court on Saturday.
Prathe went aboard the schooner Alcalde,
wrecked on North Beach a year ago. and
carried away a lot of property. Foster
purchased the vessel by auction, and
brought suit to recover what he alleges
was stolen. Prathe claims' the property
by right of recovery, before the sale took
place, and as wreckage.
The Alcalde was loaded at the Michigan
Mill and sailed for Australia. She was
caught In a blow at the mouth of the
harbor and driven upon North Beach.
The captain's daughter, who was on
board, was rescued with the crew, and
created a thrilling incident of the dlsas-
ter. The Alcalde was 20 years old and
not considered seaworthy when she
sailed.

OBJECTS TO M'QINN
BLAZIER SAYS HE - PREJUDICED
ACTION OF GRAND JURY.
Files Affidavit Saying Indictment
Was Returned to Satisfy Personal
Spite of Reform Attorney.
Because it Is alleged that Henry E.
McGinn, attorney, appeared before the
grand jury while the Eugene Blazler
perjury case was under consideration,
a motion to quash the indictment waa
filed yesterday by Spencer & Davis
and Pipes and Tlfft. defendant's coun
sel. Accompanying the motion is an affi
davit signed by Blazler which recites
that Mr. McGinn ..appeared before the
grand Jury, but was not called nor
sworn as n witness, and was not at the
time the District Attorney or" a Deputy
District Attorney, and had no right
to appear before them. It is stated
further in the affidavit that Mr. Mc
dlnn prepared and lrew the indict
ment, and the grand jury received the
same and found it to be a true bill.

but the District Attorney refused to
sign It.
It Is further alleged that Henry E.
McGinn appeared to assist the prosecu
tion in the gambling charge against
Bluzler, In which the perjury described
in the present indictment is alleged to
have occurred, and that Mr. McGinn
lias been taking an active Dart in
causing accusations against persons al
leged to be guilty of gambling and
particularly against this defendant.
Blazler also affirms that Henry K.
McGinn, as attor-iey for Walter D.
Ford brought a suit against him for
$50,300 damages upon the alleged fact
that a bartender employed by him "as
saulted Ford and caunol him the loss
-of an eye. Blaxt-r says Mr. McGinn Is
Inimical and unfriendly to aim, and
while in the grand-jury room he ad
vised and cornsellcd the grand Jury
adverse to him, Blazler. For these rea
sons Blazler avers he was and is pre
judiced of his lawful rights. A motion
to abate the Indictment for theso same
alleged reasons has been filed.

WANTS MONEY FOR ARM.
Lumber Company Sued for $15,000
by Former Employe.
The trial of the suit of John H. Pease
against the Wind River Lumber Company
for $15,000 damages was commenced in the
State Circuit Court yesterday and will bo
concluded today.
The testimony adduced showed that
Pease, who Is a young man. was working
at a planer In the mill on July 7, 1903. It
became necessary to go under the machine
and adjust a box which had become
loose. Before doing so "he threw off the
lever and stopped the planer. The fore
man, while Pease was adjusting the loose
box, negligently ordered another man to
take charge of and operate the planer. He
threw on the power and started the ma
chlnery while Pease was still underneath
the planer, with the result that his right
arm was caught and the bones broken and
crushed, and he has lost the use of the
arm. As a defense the company endeav
ored to show by witnesses that there was
no negligence.
The case will go to the jury this morn
ing. Long & Sweek appear as attorneys
for Pease and Hogue and Wilbur for the
defense.
ELLIOTT IS ARRAIGNED.
Former City Engineer Faces Indict
ments and Files a Demurrer.
William C. Elliott. ex-City Engineer,
was arraigned before Judge George yes
terday on uvo Indictments connected with
the Tariner Creek sewer scandal and was
allowed five days' time to plead to each
and was released on his own recognizance.
One indictment charges Elliott, in con
junction with R. M. and E. W. Rlner.
with attempting to obtain money under
fake pretenses. The second indictment
accuses Elliott of malfeasance. The spe
cific charge Is that he willfully .and
wrongfully neglected to Inspect the sewer
and executed a certificate of its comple
tion without having made an examina
tion of It. The Indictments show that 60
witnesses were examined against Elliott,
Including the engineer's force of assist
ants, contractors and others.
W. A. Cleland and Ed and A. R. Men
denhalL attorneys for Elliott, have filed
a .demurrer to the indictment which

Better Than
Champagne.
A good story is told of a St. Louis gen
tleman. A friend of his sent him a case
of Red Raven. It arrived while he was
absent from home. His wife opened the
box. and seeing all the dainty bottles
mistook it for champagne. She told her
husband on his return that he had been
presented with a case of wine. He, being
a genial fellow, went to the telephone and
called a few friends.
In the evening, when they came to
open the wine. tKe mistake was of course
discovered. A prominent physician who
was among the guests broke into a cry
of delight. "Why." he said, "this Is
providential. 1is beats champagne all
to pieces. There is nothing that acts so
gently on the liver, tones the stomach and
gives a man such a feeling of health as
Red Raven. It is justly called the Prince
of Aperients, and taken In the morning
after a dinner or banquet will surely
cleanse the system and put one right for
the day's work." He pulled the cork and
poured the sparkling water into a glass.
"I do not think champagne could be more
beautiful." he added, "or half as effica
cious." They all agreed, and each man
took home a dainty bottle as a souvenir.

that more than one crime is charged and
that the facts stated In the indictment do
not constitute a crime.

Guard Johnson and the Grand Jury.
PORTLAND, Jan. 9. (To the Editor.)
James F. Johnson Is a citizen of Portland
who had the misfortune about five years ago
to lose a leg In pursuit of his calling as
a railroad man. He asked no odds or favors
from any man because of his Infirmity, but
set about manfully to earn an honest liveli
hood la respectable employments. He served
faithfully as Jailer In the police department
for several years and has recently been a
guard over the rockplle prisoners. Some
body thought Guard Johnson did not treat
the criminals and vagrants under htm kind
ly and complained. The late state grand
Jury In severe language took cognizance of
the charges. It had besides the brutality
to refer to Mr. Johnson as ''Pegleg" John
son. This little Incident, revealing so undue
want of feeling and consideration fitly charac
terizes that grand Jury's notion of the
fitness of things. ' K.

Eczema on my head, legs and arms, and

did not get much relief. They said the dis

and tried various ointments and soaps for
another two years, but as soon as cold
weather came I was as bad off as ever, so I
nnally decided, to let medicine alone, and
for twelve or thirteen years did nothing
towards curing the Eczema, except bath
