THE MORNIXG OREGONIAIT. SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 190G. 14 SEEKING A ROUTE FOR THE ELDER Owner Peterson Says Portland Merchants Should Give His Boat Preference. REPAIRS ABOUT FINISHED Steamer That Was Submerged In the Columbia River More Than a Tear Will Be Released From Dry dock io Short Time. The steamer George W. Elder, which was wrecked in the Columbia River off Goble, Or., in January, 1906, and which was successfully raised last May by J. H. Peterson, of this city, will shortly be ready for commission, and Mr. Peterson and his partner in the vessel,. C. P. Doe, . of the North Pacific Steamship Company, are casting about for a route for the vessel. . The owners declare that the Elder, since being repaired, is in better con dition than she ever was before the ac cident which caused her to lie sub merged in the Columbia River for over a year. The owners are of the opinion that the vessel should be Riven prefer ence by the local merchants when they . arry into effect their plan of estab JishiiiK new steamship connections out of this city. The reason cited why the vessel should be shown some considera tion is that It was Portland capital that raised her. after outside persons had re peatedly failed. On the other hand, persons familiar with the steamer and tho demands of the local trade, believe that the Elder is entirely too small to be operated be tween Portland and 9an Francisco, for Fhe is not any larger than the Costa llicn. of the Harrtman line, which vessel is oiily a KOO-ton carrier. The Costa Kica has been found inadequate for the trade, causing that company to place nnother larpe ve-el on in conjunction with her and the freighter Barracouta. The merchnnts deny that local capi tal Is behind the establishment of a new line between Portland and San Francisco, for the representatives of Portland firms who visited Seattle simply called upon the officials of . the Northwestern Steam ship Company and prei?nted the facts of the case to them, and they consented to send their steamers Orizaba and Sara toga to this port to be operated on the southern route as an experiment. Port land merchants will have nothing to do with the operation of the vessels, and it will be optional with the Northwestern Company whether it will continue the sen-Ice after the re-opening of the Nome season next year. The placing of a line of steamers on the Nome route out of this city would hardly prove profitable at this season of the year, for the reason that In another month the Alaskan season will be prac tically closed for the Winter. While a few vessels will continue running be tween Seattle, Juneau and Skagway points, the greater number of them will be laid up for the winter. It was in view of that fact that the Northwestern Steamship Company has practically de rided to Invade the local field in oppo sition to the Harrtman pystem. According to a well-informed transpor tation agent, the owners of the Elder will do well to place her on the run in conjunction with the Roanoke between Portland and San Pedro. The Roanoke is not a large vessel and on that ac count is able to call at Eureka, and as the Elder Is of a similar size, the two vessels will he able to handle this trade easily, which at present is too large to be handled by one steamer. This fact has been evinced in the past by the amount of freight left behind on each outward voyage of the Roanoke. The owner." of the Elder expect to have her off the dry dock Inside the next two weeks. The vessel has been on the dock for over two months, and the rate of flock charges for that length of time at J120 per day will bring the total dues very close to the $10,000 mark. NONCXTOX MF.X QUIT WORK Shipowners at San Pedro Have Dif fleulty In Keeping Help. SAN PEDRO. Cal.. Aug. 24. The ship owners are having great difficulty in keep ing tneir nonunion men at work. Twenty men went over to the unions last evening, making more than 100 that have quit their jobs to Join the strikers since the begin ning of the week. The men who quit yes terday were dissatisfied with the wages paid them. The shipowners say that they are petting the work done as well as be fore the strike, and have an ample supply of laborers. The companies are erecting a large bunkhouse on Seventh street for the accommodation of the larger number of their nonunion employes. Forty nonunion laborers, most of them Ttusslans. were brought from Los An fteles this morning and put to work un loading lumber from the vessels carrying nonunion crews. A number of them sub sequently left, after learning that they were taking the places of union men. APPLY l'Oll INJUNCTION. Crescent AYliarf Co., of San Pedro, Resorts to Courts for Protection. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 24. The Crescent Wharf & Wurehouse Company today applied in the Supreme Court for an injunction against the Longshore men's Union of San Pedro and the Pa cific Coast Federation of Longshore men and the members individually, asking an injunction restraining them from interfering with the work of the men in its employ in unloading of ves sels at the East San Pedro wharves and at the Long Beach Harbor. The pe tition recites that the company has been greatly handicapped by the action of the union since August 17 and that it has Induced more than 25 of its re cently employed men to quit work. A temporary injunction was granted, re turnable next Friday morning. STEAMER ALLIANCE ARRIVES Brings Vsual Full Cargo of Freight and Passengers. Loaded to the guards with freight and passengers, the California & Oregon Coast Steamship Company's liner Alliance arrived at her dock from Eureka and Coos Bay yesterday morning, and Cap tain Bernard Kelly reports a fine trip up the Coast except for a little fog encoun tered off the Oregon coast. The vessel's cargo consists of general merchandise in the main, but there Is a shipment of 14 cars of sashes, doors and shingles from North Bend mills, which are destined for the East. While at Eureka some trouble wae ex perienced with the longshoremen, who re fused to work the winches in the opera tion of loading the vessel, but any delay that might have been experienced by this action was overcome by Captain Kelly impressing the crew Into action in work ing cargo. The vessel's commander says that the longshoremen's attitude at Eureka may have a serious effect on the shipping of that place, for they hold the same atti tude toward most of the vessels coming into that port, and will not assist any vessel manned by nonunion crews. The Alliance will sail Monday evening on her return trip, and will have all the freight she can carry. Agent F. P. Baum Kartner is on the lookout for another vessel to help out on the route. LOW WATER AT THE LOCKS Mills of Oregon City Embarrassed by Condition of the River. OREGON CITY. Or., Aug. 24. (Special.) On account of the low stage of the river, which registers but S.l feet above low water, it is impossible for river steamers to pass through the locks in this city with more than half a cargo. This condi tion, coupled with the scarcity of accom modations both by rail and ocean steam er, Is seriously embarrassing the making of shipments from the mills In this city. Farmers also find it impossible to pro cure caw with which to forward their WORK HAS BEGUN ON THE NEWHALL BUILDING ' N'F.WHALL 19 06 riiri) .QOj lliH iPjol fflmmm. i " i i " i i i " T i " FRONT KLEVATION PLANS OF THREE-STORY BUILDING TO BE KRECTED ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF ORAM) AVENUE ANI KAST WASHINGTON STREET.

It will be called "The Newhall." after H. H. Newhall, who founded the institution that will occupy the first floor. -The cost of the building Is estimated at from $ 15.000 to 20,000. It takes the place- of old frame structures that have Mood for the past 30 years. It will have a frontage of B0 feet and depth of 40 feet. crops to market. The average Valley farmer is not provided with facilities for the storinr- of his grain, which he Is obliged to ship immediately following har vest, and any delay that results operates to the pecuniary disadvantage of the pro ducer. TWICKENHAM IS ASHORE. Big Tramp Steamer Runs Aground in San Juan Island. VICTORIA. B. C. Aug. 24. The steamer Twickenham, which arrived last night from Soerabaya, Java, with 6o00 tons of sugar for the British Columbia sugar re finery, is ashore on San Juan Island, two miles from Roche Harbor. Her fore peak is full of water. The salvage steamer Maude is being sent to her assistance. The Twickenham lies held fast by the bow. which is badly damaged, and the forehold is full of water, the sugar in that hold being destroyed. A tug and scows have been sent from Tacoma, and as much as possible of the cargo will be lightered at once. As the Twickenham lies in American waters, it was necessary to secure permission from Washington to permit the Canadian wrecking steamer Maude to work. The steamer Salvo will be sent out this evening to aid the Maude. The wrecking steamer S-alvor, towing the barge Alexander, left Victoria to night for the spot where the Twickenham ran aground. The Salvor will assist the wrecking steamer Maude, which is" al ready at the wreck. The crew this after noon made the vessel fast to trees on the shore to prevent her slipping into deep water If she worked free from the rocks. The officers of the ship, who, with the pilot, were all on the bridge at the time of the wreck, state they could see but a few feet in front of them on account of the smoke from brush fires on the shore of the island. The steamship is a new one, built to take the- place of the old Twickenham, sold to tho Japanese last year. ANCHORED OFF NORTH BEACH Two Vessels Supposed to Be Amelia and Virginia Are Close to Surf.

' Neither of the vessels displayed any distress signals, and neither is In any danger unless a storm should come up. The wind has been very light and from the West, making it impossible for them to work their way oft shore, but this evening the wind has shifted to the Northwest and Is increasing sligrhtly, so they will probably be able to put out to sea before morning. If not, the tug Tatoosh will run out to them. MANCHURIA'S POSITION WORSE Big Steamship Is Pounding Astern and 50 Per Cent Reinsurance Paid. HONOLULU, Aug. 24.

Del., Aug. 24-Kneel-lng in prayer, after" she had struggled vainly to free her foot from between the ties of a Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tres tle. Miss Elizabeth Rothwell, a young woman of this city, was ground to pieces by a freight train today near Brandywine Springs Park. Her aunt, Mrs. Richard Rothwell, and a young cousin, Richard Rothwell, who were with her at the time, were Injured. There was a farmers' fair at the park, and hundreds of persons saw the tragedy. Miss Rothwell, her aunt and cousin were crossing the trestle to take a car home, when a whistle warned them that a train was approaching. They turned to run back, but when they saw that they were more than half way across, they wheeled about again to run in the other direction. In doing so Miss Rothwell's right foot slipped between the ties, and became firm ly wedged. Mrs. Rothwell jumped, alighting on the bank 20 feet below and breaking several bones. The boy was too- bewildered to move, and the engine struck him. tossing him off the side of the trestle. Then Miss Rothwell was killed. Schoolgirl Shields Suspect. EVANSVILLE. Ind., Aug. 24.

PLAN HIGH BRIDGE Structure at Wilsonville to Be 75 Feet Above River. READY TO COMMENCE WORK Willamette Valley Construction Com pany Assembling Material for J 4he Piers Will Carry New Electric Road. Materials are being assembled for the commencement of work on the bridge across the Wlllamettte River at Wilson ville, to be built by the Willamette Valley Construction Company, permission to erect which has Just been granted by the War Department. The authorities at Washington stipulated that there should be 75 feet in the clear from the low-water level of the river to ,the deck of the bridge. Orders for. the steel superstructure have been placed with the Pennsylvania Steel Company, with the understanding that the material will be delivered in March. The bridge is to be a steel truss, with the track laid on top of the spans. Five con crete piers will be built to support the bridge, each of which will be about 110 feet high. Men are being put to work on preliminaries and the laying of the con crete foundations will be soon commenced. The building of the foundations will be an interesting process. Although footing will not be secured by the pneumatic process, elaborate preparations are neces sary for the building of the piers. First a large number of piling will be driven into the river Ded. in excavations ten feet be low, the bottom of the river, which is now 40 feet beneath the surface. The piles will be sunk into the mud as far as pos sible, where they will be sawed off. Timbers will then be set around each pier to form a coffer dam and as the wa ter Is pumped out the cement pier will be built upon the tops of the piling. Since the wood piles will be In mud under 40 feet of water, they will never rot. As the bridge will be so high above the river, long trestles will be necessary on either side of the bridge. These trestles will be filled within a few years after completion of the road. The building of this bridge will cost the Willamette Valley Traction Company about jax),00O. It will probably be com pleted next Fall. NOT ABSORBED BY HARRIMAN President Clarke Says Ii. A. & P. Re tains Its Individuality. E. P. Clarke, president of the Los An geles & Pacific Railroad, is in Portland with his wife on a pleasure trip. He will remain here several days, and is regis tered at the Portland. Mr. Clarke denies that his road has been turned over to the Harriman In terests, as the general Impression is. He states that the Union Pacific magnate acquired 51 per cent of the stock, but the individual management and general policy of the road remains . the same. Mr. Clarke is still president, and there is to be no change in the official list. "The Harriman intere-sts and our road were always very friendly, and the inter change of traffic was large," said he. "The acquisition of stock by the Harri man people merely cements the friendly relations of our road and the Harriman system, while it results in mutual ad' vantage to both Interests." Mr. Clarke states he is very favorably impressed with Portland, and finds every evidence here of substantial growth. The business houses evidence a growing pros perity, he says, while the modern con struction of the city shows that the peo ple have confidence in Portland s future. He finds a field here also for lnterurban roads, which he says have developed the California cities In a remarkable way. Mr. Clarke commented favorably on Portland s streetcar system, which he finds Is equal to the city traction conven iences of the larger cities of the country. Mr. Clarke says that business has no con nection whatever with his trip to Port land, but that he and his wife come for a rest merely.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24. Sixty policemen were overwhelmed today by a mad rush of men and women who were determined to get the first money paid out of the vaults of the ruined Milwaukee-Avenue State Bank. Receiver Fetzer had made arrangements to pay 20 per cent to 5000 of the 22,000 depositors, and everybody was anxious to be among the 6000. At daybreak the crowds swarmed around the bank, and by 8 o'clock the bank was sur rounded by 15,000 people. Sixty policemen had been sent to the bank, but fhey were unable to handle the crowd, the greater part of which was unable to speak the English language. Forty more officers were finally sent to the bank and order was even then restored with difficulty. It seemed Impossible to make the deposi tors comprehend that, although only 5000 were to be paid today the others would be paid just as much within the next few days. At one time the crowd threat ened to fairly storm the bank, as, waving their passbooks In the air, they rushed for the door, shouting in Bohemian, Pol ish, Norwegian and Italian. The receiver was all day paying the 5000, and will pay as many more tomorrow. Reeciver Fetzer decided to send out only 5000 notices a day on account of the dlf- BABY S TORTURING SKIH HUMOR Ears Looked as if They Would Drop Off Body Entirely Covered ( . Face . Mass of Sores Three Doctors Could Not Cure Child Grew Worse Face and. Body Now Clear CURED BY CUTICURA IN TWO WEEKS FOR 75c. Mrs. Georga J.

She broke out all over her body -with a humor, and we used everything recom mended, but without results. I called in three doctors, they all claimed they could help her, but she continued to grow' worse. Her body was a mass of sores, and her little face was being eaten away; her ears looked as if they would drop off. Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and before I had used half of the cake of Soap and box of Ointment the sores had' all healed, and my little one's face and body were as clear as a new-born babe's.
