BIG DEMAND FOR
L
Exporters Impress .Vessels of
AH Descriptions in the
Traffic.
NEEDED IN SAN FRANCISCO
Sailing Vessels Are Being Impressed,
as Steam Craft Are All Engaged.
Tugs to Be Used In Towing
Them to the Bay City.
The demand for lumber carriers out of
this port Is so great that the local ex
porters are frequently hard pressed for
means -with -which to send their product
to market. The principal shortage of ves
sels Is experienced In the coastwise trade,
for the San Francisco demand alone Is
sufficient to tax the capacity of the entire
lumber fleet, but as a good many of these
vessels run to San Pedro and other coast
wise ports, the shipping facilities are not
adequate to supply the demand.
All available vessels, both steam and
Bailing, have been pressed Into the serv
ice, and are making regular trips between
the local mills and those along the Colum
bia and Willamette JRivers and the south
ern ports.
Ever since the San Francisco fire small
sailing vessels have been plying between
the Bay City and Southern Oregon ports
In the lumber-carrying trade, and these
vessels have helped materially in reliev
ing the situation, but as they do not
make fast enough time the owners have
chartered the tug Vosburg, which has
been lying idle In this city for the past
year, to tow the schooners from Coos Bay
to San Francisco. This method, it is said,
will save several days' time en route.
The steam schooners along the coast
are all being taxed to their utmost ca
pacity, and are too small In numbers to
accommodate even a small portion of the
business.
Not being able to fill California orders
through the regular channels, the North
Pacific Lumber Company yesterday char
tered the American ship Falls of Clyde to
take 1,000,000 feet of Oregon pine to San
Krancisco. The Fails of Clyde is one of
the oldest vessels on the Coast, and her
history Is closely linked with that of the
venerable barks Coloma and Alden Besse,
formerly well-known vessels In the local
harbor. The Falls of Clyde is one of the
few foreign-built vessels to secure Amer
ican registry. She was built at Glasgow
in 1878 and flew the British flag for many
years. When the annexation of the Ha
waiian Islands took place, the vessels
also changed flags.
There are plenty of large tramp steam
ships available for the foreign trade out
of Portland, but the American law pro
hibits foreign vessels engaging in the
coastwise trade. Four large steamers are
now loading lumber here. They are the
Comeric, which Is expected to finish to
day, the Beckenham, Sutherland and
Thyra. In addition, the Oriental liner
Kicomedia is taking a large shipment of
lumber.
The Thyra finished loading a portion of
her cargo at Vancouver yesterday, and
will come to the Portland mills this after
noon to complete her cargo for Port Pirle,
Australia.
The five steamships mentioned will take
.over 12,000,000 feet of lumber from this
port, and the big tramp steamship Nor
man Isles is expected here shortly and
may swell the August total to a much
greater amount. She is due at San Fran
cisco in a few days, and will come north
Immediately.
MAT SECURE THE AZTEC.
Taclfic Mail Liner Likely to Be
riaced on San Francisco Run.
The San Francieco & Portland Steam
ship Company's liner Costa Rica sailed
last evening for San Francisco with a
full cargo consisting of 1200 tons of gen
eral freight. She would have taken as
many passengers as her rating allows, but
the Government Inspectors at San Fran
cisco refused her a license on account of
her green crew, and the agents were com
pelled to cancel all berths sold out of this
port. By her next visit the officers of the
vessel expect to have the crew drilled into
their duties so that they will pass muster
with the authorities, and again secure a
passenger permit.
The San Francisco officers of the steam
ship company are said to be making ar
rangements to place the steamship Aztec
on the Portland-San Francisco run. This
vessel is operated by the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and is a vessel of
3508 tons net register. She has been on the
San Francisco-Oriental run for several
years, and has also plied between the Bay
City and Isthmian ports.
The repairs to the steamship Columbia
will not be completed much before Sep
tember 1, according to the latest advices
from San Francisco, and the addition of
a vessel of the Aztec's capacity to the
local run will greatly assist in relieving
the congested freight conditions.
The Costa Rica was unable to accom
modate much more than half the mer
chandise that was listed for San Fran
cisco, and much of this freight remains on
the Ainsworth dock awaiting the arrival
of the Barracouta, which is due on the
return trip next Tuesday or Wednesday.
POTTER RESUMES HER RUN
Popular River Steamer Leaves This
Afternoon lor the Beach Resorts.
The steamer T. J. Potter will resume
her run to the beach resorts, commencing
this afternoon. Two weeks ago the popu
lar vessel met with an accident to her
machinery which threatened to tie her
up for the balance of the season, but as
this Is the rush season to the coast, the
O. R. & N. Company decided to repair
her as rapidly as possible and place her
in commission again. 'j.his has been ac
complished and the vessel will take a
full load of passengers today. The
steamer leaves Ash street at 1:30 o'clock,
and most of her accommodations have
been sold.
Kicomedia Will Sail Tomorrow.
The Portland & Asiatic Steamship Com
pany's liner Nicomedla will sail tomorrow
afternoon for Yokonama ana Hongkong.
She will carry a large cargo of general
freight, consisting of flour, grain and lum
ber, and in addition 15 thoroughbred milch
cows are being shipped to a Hongkong
dairy.

PRICE DROPS STEADILY
Eastern Jobbers Say It Will Be No
Higher, and Some Assert That
the Bottom Has Not Yet
Been Reached.
SALEM, Or., Aug. 3. (Special.) Step
by step, the prune market in Oregon
has dropped down from a 24-cent basis
early in the season to a 14 basis
now. Whether the bottom price has
been reached Is a question upon which
opinions differ and which will probably
be determined chiefly by the course grow
ers pursue in. selling. Eastern jobbers
are confident that the price will be no
higher and some of thera assert that
It will' go lower before the crop Is mar
keted. The prices quoted are those paid
HAS RECORD FOR BRAVERY
In the present British naval ma
neuvers, which approach more
nearly the conditions of actual war
fare than any previously under
taken, the Commander-in-Chief of
the fleet which is supposed to be
defending the coasts of England
against the attack of the enemy is
Admiral Sir Arthur Knyvet Wilson.
Admiral Wilson is known In the
navy as the man who never takes
a holiday, despite his 64 years.
When on a cruise he seldom goes
ashore at the ports his fleet visits,
and then only to pay or return some
official call. When he comes home
to England, Instead of going off on
leave the first thing, like the other
officers under him, he stays quietly
on board the ship. It is not the
taste of the anchorite which guides
him, for he is no hater of the world
or of the pleasures of life and so
ciety with the big "S." It Is sim
ply that, being a bachelor, he loves
his profession more than anything
else, and In his estimation time de
voted to any other pursuit is time
wasted. Consequently, there Is no
officer more thoroughly up to date
in all that pertains to naval war
fare. He has been through the Cri
mean and China wars, and the
Egyptian and Soudan campaign. It
was in the latter he showed himself
a fighter of the first order and won
to growers. Packers get one-half cent
more.
Early sales of the. Willamette "Valley
Prune Association were made at as high
as 2 cents, or 24 cents for the
grower, and at this price and a quarter
of a cent less, about 40 cars were dis
posed of by the association for October
and November shipment. Between this
figure and the present price, about half
the Oregon crop has been sold and the
market seems now to be rather inactive.
Some sales are being made, but grow
ers who did not sell at the higher prices
seem disposed to wait now for further
developments.
Immense Yield Promised.
Crop conditions continue to look favor
able for an Immense yield, notwith
standing an unusually heavy drop owing
to the long-continued hot, dry weather.
It is expected, and confidently believed,
that the heavy drop will result in larger
sizes, but this, of course, will depend
upon the weather in the future. Growers1
are making preparations to run their
dryers to the full capacity, and It is
frequently remarked that the size of the
crop will be limited by the capacity of
the evaporators to cure the fruit.
Eastern buyers figure the Oregon crop,
which means that of Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho, at 40,000,000 pounds, which
will be as large a crop as ever produced
In . the Pacific Northwest.
While It is known that there will be an
Immense prune crop in California and
In European countries, it is believed here
that buyers are overestimating the Eu
ropean crop for effect. But after allow
ances are made for overestimates In
duced by self-interest, it is admitted
that the world's prune crop is unusually
large, and that the heavy yield comes
in the same year with a larger apple
crop, with whuch the prunes must come
into competition. The only saving fea
ture In the situation, as Oregon pro
ducers see It, is that the prunes will go
upon a practically bare market and that
the prices of canned fruits are exceed
ingly high. .
Needed for Early Delivery.
Large orders, both for early shipment
in this country and for export, indi
cate that the Xrult is needed for early
delivery to the retailers. With the early
demand practically filled, there will prob
ably not be much doing in the prune mar
ket for some time.
One feature of the situation that
arouses some interest is the declaration
from New York and from California
that Jobbers who bought at the high
opening figures are now seeking to secure
release from their contracts. They
bought when prunes were a full cent
higher than now and would like to have
an opportunity to supply their needs at
the lower prices. It is reported by the
New York Commercial that jobbers have
offered Oregon packers one-half to three
quarters cents a pound on their contracts
for release. It is difficult to see how
such offers could be accepted, for prac
tically all sales by packers have been
covered by contracts with, growers and
the packer who released the jobber would
be under the necessity of settling with
the grower. Growers who sold at the
opening prices will not be easy to settle
with at less than the face of their con
tracts. ,
Then, too, the jobbers need the goods
for early shipment and If they were re
leased they would be obliged to pur
chase again from packers here or else
where to supply their needs. It is gen
erally believed here that all contracts
will be fulfilled, yet there are some indi
cations of uneasiness oh the part of
growers, who will feel better when they
. see the cash In the bank to their credit.
A cent a pound on prunes runs Into
money pretty fast.
Opening Prices Too High.
The California Fruit Grower, the lead
ing fruit paper In the southern state,
thinks the opening prices were too high
and that the present effort to crush the
market is foolish and unwarranted Dy
.conditions. It also touches upon the sub-
PHI
MARKET LOW
Ject of Eastern buyers trying to get
from under their contracts, indicating
that there Is some uneasiness In that
state. In the course of an article in
its last issue It says:
While conditions do not warrant exces
sively high prices, neither do they warrant
the low values being quoted today, and
we certainly hope to see packers wait for
the buying demand at a reasonable figure
In place of forcing the situation and pro
ducing a gradually declining market. The
East bought liberally early and at good
figures, and present requirements are
pretty generally covered, so that It is but
natural to experience a lack of further In
terest in future prunes at the moment.
This lack of interest is being rapidly
transformed into disgust and antagonism
on the part of the Eastern trade that
bought 2 and 3-cent prunes earlier in
the season, and some of these buyers are
accusing California packers of handing
them "green goods," and ieavy buyers
are now looking around for 2c prunes to
average up on. The attitude of Eastern
buyers, who express a desire not to take
their early purchases of prunes on ac
count of the considerable decline in the
market since, is most unjustifiable, of
course, and the blame being heaped upon
California sellers for these early prices is
a considerable injustice. Buyers expect
delivery of gods bought on an advancing
market, and should be just as quick to
stand by their purchases dn a declining
market.
A Chance for the Packer.
Of course, if a California packer of
prunes has been sufficiently fortunate to
have a quantity sold at a 3-cent basis,
which he has not already covered, he
stands to make money through the for
tunes of chance, but it must not be sup
posed that all the packers sold at the
highest price and are covering at the
lowest. Packers who sold early went out
and bought early to cover sales, and,
while they naturally bought at less than
they sold for, have paid, in most in
stances, considerably above present sell-,
ing prices. From the feeling of many in
the. trade here against the present low
values, we should not be surprised to see
this matter remedied, and Dartlcularlv so
if growers do not sacrifice their fruit.
we do not consider this a high-priced
year by any means, and crop conditions,
both at home and abroad, do not warrant
high values for.-prunes, but we do believe
that the fruit will sell Just as readily at
a fair value, If not more so, as under the
present pressure to move goods at contin
ually declining values.
WANTS SUMMER CAPITAL
Newport, Rhode Island, Desires Sec
ond White House Built.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Aug. 3. Newport, R. I.,
wants to be made the official Summer
capital of the United States. It al
ready ranks as the most select of all
Summer resorts and has come to be the
Summer residence of a large number
of the -foreign diplomats assigned to
Washington, as well as the warm
weather rendezvous of the big Atlarflc
fleet of the American Navy. But this
is not enough. Newport wants the
President, confident that, if he takes
up his residence, the remaining diplo
mats will follow and the various Cab
inet officers will spend more or less
of their time at that comfortable re
sort. The scheme on foot contemplates
the erection by the Government of a
Summer White House at Newport, to
gether with adequate offices for the
President and his corps of secretaries.
While the suggestion has some attrac
tive features, it will probably not be
carried out. president Roosevelt would
not favor it, for, when he goes on his
vacation, he attends to only the most
Important business and gives or. the
bulk of his time to his family. In
other words, when he goes to his home
on Sagamore Hill, he goes for rest and
recreation and he knows he can get
more of It and with more privacy there
than he could anywhere else, especially
at Newport. Other Presidents will
probably prefer seclusion to Newport
in the Summer.
If the Summer White House idea
should be carried out and Newport
made the hot weather substitute for
Washington, the President would get
little rest and recreation during1 the
Summer months. He would probably
be loaded down with one continual
round of social duties, not to mention
a maximum of Government business,
so that his Summer would be vacation
In name only.

"Postum has done a world of good for

"I've had indigestion nearly all my life,
hut never dreamed coffee was the cause
of my trouble until last Spring I got so
had I was In misery all the time.
"A coffee drinker for 30 years, it Irri
tated my stomach and nerves, yet I was
lust crazy for it. After drinking It with
my meals, I would leave the table, go out
and loee my meal and the coffee too.
Then I'd he as hungry as ever.
"A friend advised me to quit coffee and
use Postum said it cured him. Since
taking his advice I retain my food and
get all the good out of It, and don't have
those awful, hungry spells.
"I changed from coffee to Postum with
out any trouble whatever, felt better from
the first day I drank it. I am well now
and give the credit to Postum." Name
