Big- Steamship Makes Fast
Trip Across Pacific in
Teeth of Gale.
FOLLOWED TYPHOON PATH
Captain Ernst Tells of Trip From
Hongkong to Yokohama Mongo
lia Forced to Put Back Into
Fort, and Sailed Later.
With the arrival of the Portland & Asi--atio
liner Aragonia at Montgomery dock
last evening, two vessels of the line are
moored on the east side of the river.
The other vessel is the Arabia, which
finished loading yesterday, and will prob
ably leave down this morning.
The Aragonia is the largest carrier of
the fleet, and came with but little over
half a cargo, although on her outward
voyage she will have a full load. The
big liner crossed the Pacific in 16 days,
and would have bettered this mark had
Bhe not encountered the tail end of the
Formosa typhoon shortly after leaving
Yokohama. She arrived at Astoria at 7
o'clock yesterday morning, and after
three hours' delay at the lower harbor,
was brought up to Portland in a trifle
less than nine hours by Captain Pease. '
Captain Brnst, commander of the Ara
gonia, had the following to say regard
ing the voyage just ended:
"We were to have left Hongkong on
August 29, but the Formosa typhoon set
In at that time and we anchored for 18
hours. After sailing we encountered the
storm again, but rode It off at Amoy. We
had 300 tons of freight for Formosa, and.
after leaving this, called at Mojl and
Kobe and from the latter port we sailed
direct for Yokohama. While there we
were In company with the Pacific Mall
liner Mongolia, which had been forced to
put back on account of the typhoon, and
which, I have since learned, went ashore
on Midway Island. We sailed from Yoko
hama at daylight on September 12, and
encountered the fag-end of the typhoon
for the first four or five days out. Two
days out we spoke the Numantia, and
ahe reported all well. The heavy weather
prevailed for nearly a week, and on that
account we were delayed. We would have
made considerably faster time had the
weather been clear after leaving the other
side. As it was, we made the voyage in 16
days, for we picked up the pilot at 7
o'clock this morning. An American sail
ing ship crossed our bows about one week
from the Columbia, but we could not
make out her name, and she did not sig
nal. The Numantia and this vessel were
the only ships sighted en route."
The Aragonla's cargo 4s made up of fire
crackers, lily bulbs from Japan, tea, mat
ting, cement, camphor and other miscel
laneous merchandise, all of which
amounts to about 3300 measured tons.
Last evening the officers of the steam
ship Arabia paid the officers of the Ara
gonia a visit and a thoroughly enjoyable
evening was passed discussing old times
and events of former days when the two
vessels were plying between London and
Indian ports.
TO OPERATE MOUNTAIN" GEM
Open River Company to Continue
Craft In Wheat-Carrying Business.
Captain Prank J. Smith, superintendent
of the water lines of the Open River
Transportation Company, announced last
evening that the report that the steamer
Mountain Gem is to be taken off the pres
ent run and to quit handling grain on the
upper river is erroneous. He confirms the
reported chartering of the steamer to the
O. R. & N. Co., but adds that the charter
does not go into effect until after the
greater portion of the grain crop will
have been shipped to tidewater.
The charterers of the craft could not
operate her at the present time if they so
desired, for she cannot reach the Snake
River points she Is scheduled to touch for
the Harriman system, owing to the low
stage of the water at the present time.
According to Captain Smith, the craft will
be operated by the Open River Company
for the next six weeks.
The steamer Relief will be placed in
commission this afternoon. She is to be
inspected by the Government inspectors
this morning, and as soon as this work is
completed ehe .will start on her first reg
ular trip. She will load a cargo of grain
at Squally Hook and bring this load to
the portage road tomorrow, which will
complete her first round trip. In addition
the steamer Kakima is almost completed
and will be ready for operation about
October 10. The Mountain Gem is bring
ing a cargo of grain to the portage road
today, and this will be transferred to the
steamer Charles R. Spencer this afternoon
and brought to Portland tomorrow.
Captain Smith will accompany the Gov
ernment inspectors to Celilo today, and
will return tomorrow. The steamer Spen
cer was Inspected yesterday, and on that
account laid over until today.
WORK OX SNAKE RIVER.
Engineer Ogden Returns From Tour
of Inspection Near Riparia.
David B. Ogden, Assistant United States
Engineer, returned yesterday from an in
spection of the Snake River, which is at
present at its lowest stage. He states
that the river will shortly be in naviga
ble 6hape. and that the regular steamers
will resume theit routes in a few weeks.
Shoals are especially noticeable between
Lewiston and Riparia, and the dredge
Wallowa is engaged in cutting these away.
She is at present at work on Offleld'e bar,
and will move from that point to Dry
Gulch shoal in about a week.

WILIi FLOAT THE SHERIDAN
Prospects Good of Saving Army
Transport From Rocks.
VICTORIA. B. C. Sept. 28.. The
steamer Aorangi, from Australia via
Honolulu, brought among her passen
gers Captain Wood and the crew which
took the drydock Dewey from New
York to Manila, on the way home to
New York, and Major Pendleton and
Lieutenant South, United States Ma
rines, with their wives, all of whom
were passengers from Manila on the
wrecked Army transport Sheridan.
The shipwrecked passengers from the
Sheridan reported that the chances of
saving the vessel were good. She lies
on a coral hillock oft Oahu. which ex
tends for about 150 feet under No. 3
and No. 5 compartments and the engine-room.
Captain Peabody expected
that the wreckers would succeed in
floating the ship. A man named Mc
Donald, a coal-passer, was drowned
under strange circumstances.
A Japanese stowaway stole a hatch
cover to aid him in swimming ashore.
McDonald, who was intoxicated,
stumbled over the open hatch and was
drowned in the hold before assistance
could reach him.
STEAMER KILBURN SAILS.
LcaTes) With Full Cargo for San
Francisco and Way Ports.
The steamer F. A. Kilburn sailed for
San Francisco and way points last even
ing carrying a full cargo of freight and
a number of passengers for coastwise
ports. The vessel is one day behind her
schedule and Captain Merriam expects
to make this up on the present voyage.
When the vessel reaches Astoria this
morning she will take on about 200 tons
of freight at that place, space for which
was reserved when she left her dock in
this qity.
Agent Greenough announces that he will
commence to receive freight for the next
voyage Monday morning. Traffic Man
ager Baruch of the Watsonville Trans
portation Company went to Astoria on the
Kilburn. He will attend to some business
at that place and return to Portland to
morrow. Freighter Aztec Arrives in Port.
The San Francisco & Portland Steam
ship Company's liner Aztec arrived up
late last evening. She brought a large
cargo of freight from San Francisco and
will commence discharging at the Alns
worth dock today.
Captain Frazier reports a fair trip up
the coast, and that the big freighter
made excellent time. Fogs were encoun
tered off the Oregon coast, but did not
delay the vessel. She came Into Astoria
a little behind the German steamship
Aragonia, and followed her closely up the
river.
Marine Notes.
The steamship Harold Dollar, which is

Portland Lawyer Seeks Divorce.
Charles B. Andrew, a lawyer residing at
the Hotel Portland, has instituted divorce
proceedings in the Multnomah County
Circuit Court, accusing his wife, Ella G.
Andrew, of all sorts of misconduct. The
couple were married at Denver, October
21, 1890, and after residing at La Porte,
Ind., until June, 1900 they came to this
city, where they have been ever since. His
complaint charges her with various acts
of cruelty towards him, besides numerous
eccentricities on her part, not the least
conspicuous of which is a fondness for
other men and a disposition to nag at
him constantly and involve him in disas
trous financial deals. In one of her terri
fying letters to plaintiff, Mrs. Andrew is
alleged to have said: "Some day I'll com
mit suicide and have my dead body sent
to you for a Christmas' present."
It Is hinted that Mrs. Andrew at one
time entertained histrionic ambitions, and
sought to shine in the theatrical ftrma-
BOY IS HEARTBROKEN AT
DEATH OF HIS PET DOG
Scotch Collie, Crushed in Elevator Shaft, Dies With Its Head in the
Lap of Its Master.
TV DOG was killed tragically in our big
r building yesterday. He was caught
in the elevator shaft between the cage
and the door and so badly crushed that
he died soon afterward in an upper hall
way, where sympathetic arms had borne
him. The fact that he was a blooded
Scotch collie did not matter, but the fact
that he was a little boy's dog, his play
mate, guide, philosopher and friend, and
that he died with his head on his little
master's lap, did matter a great deal.
There was something peculiarly Bad in
the death of this faithful fellow.- Those
of us who knew of the circumstances
moved about the building sorrowful. It
was almost a matter of bated breath and
softened footfall, for there were few of
us who did not so love a good dog that
we pitied the boy who loved him most,
and were sad because an honest dog-soul
was passing In agony. .
The accident occurred on a "lower floor,
but they carried him up to ours and ladd
him in a corridor to die. It was a hope
less case, and we all knew It all but
the little boy, whose heart was breaking.
He sat on the floor beside him and
stroked the dog's head. His lip trembled,
but he was brave and kept repeating to
us: "Wait till the doctor comes; he'll
save him." We knew better. And the
dog knew, but was brave brave as Us
little master.
The collie was faithful unto death. He
knew his boy-master, and feebly wagged
his tali and rubbed his head upon the
little fellow's knee. His eyes were gla
ing with the suffering of death, but he
ALL WILL BURN OIL
Engines of S. P. and 0. R. & N.
Being Fitted for New Fuel.
EXPERIMENTS A SUCCESS
Passenger Engines Already Using
Liquid Fuel, and Wood and Coal
Will Soon Be Entirely Dis
carded In Oregon.
So successful has been the use df
crude petroleum lor fuel on the South
ern Pacific and O. R. & N. lines in
Oregon that the managers of the allied
lines will hasten the. changing of all
other locomotlvea which are now coal
and wood-burners into oil-burners.
Engines already burning oil are in the
passenger service. Orders have been
issued that -freight engines be changed
as rapidly as possible.
The new fuel has been undergoing
a trial on the Harriman lines in this
state for the past five months. Some
predicted at first that the oil would
not prove satisfactory, as it would
cause so hot a Are thatthe tubes in the
boilers would suffer. '. This has not
proved true, and with the wider use of
this class of fuel has come a better
knowledge of how to handle it to the
best advantage. The managers of the
railroads are thoroughly satisfied with
oil fuel, and would not go back to the
old days of wood and coal-burning.
The change has resulted in economy
of operation, as well as in a more even
supply of steam and less trouble In
handling.
Directly after the San Francisco
earthquake it was thought that the
O. R. & N. and Southern Pacific would
have to make a double-quick change
back to wood and coal-burning engines,
since great difficulty was experienced
in getting Oil. The Associated Oil
Company, from which the Harriman oil
supply was coming, suffered the break
ing of its pipe lines, and the conse
quent failure to deliver oil. Had it
not been that the Standard Oil Com
pany came to the rescue of the rail
roads, it would have been almost im
possible to move trains.
"We have now received assurances
that the supply of fuel oil will be forth
coming for railroad use," said Super
intendent Buckley, of the Harriman
lines. "This justifies us in going
ahead and changing all our engines as
rapidly as they can be handled in the
shops. Our passenger locomotives are
already equipped with tanks and oil
burning furnaces, and a start will now
be made on the freight engines. After
a time all our freight motive power
will be burning oil. About three en
gines will be -changed each week in
the shops until all are thus equipped,"

HARRIMAN LINES UP TO DATE
Train Telephones Being Installed on
La Grande Division.
LA GRANDE. Or.. Sept. 28. (Special.)
Workmen are in La Grande placing the
equipments for telephones on trains and
freight cabooses, by which the conductor
of . a train may communicate with the
dispatcher's office at any time and from
any point' on the line. The train tele
phones are used especially In case of
accident or wrecks that may occur sev
eral miles from telegraph stations. This
will be the means of saving delays and
loss of time and will prove a valuable
safeguard as well.
As a means of facilitating safe rail
roading the train telephone ranks next
to the block signal, both of these equip
ments will be in operation on this division
within a short time.
APPEAL TO O'BRIEN DIRECT
Freighthandlers to Petition Head of
O. R. & N. for Higher Wages.
Portland freighthandlers. who requested
an increase in salary a short time ago
but were refused by the superintendents
of the railroads centering here, have not
given up hope of getting more money
and will again present their claims for
an increase. This time the appeal will be
made to General Manager O'Brien, of the
Harriman lines, direct.
.The Freighthandlers' Union is made up
of the men employed in handling freight
at the O. R. & N Southern Pacific and
Northern Pacific freight houses. William
Hayes, a resident of Portland for the
past 20 years, is president of the union.
The men contend that their pay, in view
of the higher charges for everything
they are compelled to buy, ig far from
sufficient to maintain themselves ami
their families.
Truckers at the frelghthouses are paid
$2.10 for a day of 10 hours. Callers and
carmen at the frelghthouses are paid
$2.20 a day, while checkers are paid $65
a month. The work is hard and requires
men of strong physique. The freight
handlers contend that $2.10 a day is not
a reasonable wage for men who have to
work as hard as they do and that they
cannot live on the money and maintain
their families.
They preferred their request three
weeks ago and there was talk of a strike
if their wages were not raised. General
Superintendent Buckley, of the Harriman
looked into the lad's face with an elo
quence of dog-love that meant ail the
wonders of affection which dogs may feel
and express in their pathetic dumb
fashion.
We encouraged the boy, but when the
doctor came he told the truth, and merci
fully chloroformed the beautiful animal
to save him further misery.
Then the little boy's courage gave way,
and he sobbed. The tears of childhood's
sorrow shut out all the world save only
that his friend the dog was dead. He
went home for his brother, another little
boy who had loved the dog, and they
brought their toy wagon in which to bear
away their dead. They carried the body
into the elevator and down to the ground
floor. They placed it in the wagon, and
the sorrowful little cortege started to
ward home. There .are two sad-hearted
little boys in this big town today, for
their dog Is dead. Men whom the world
has called great have died and left less
pure, sincere regret behind them than this
collie. Fortunate are the great of earth
if their dying brings tear-blinding sorrow
to a little boy.
The grief of childhood is a saddening
thing, but beautiful in its genuineness.
There Is a lesson in It, and an inspira
tion. The death of the dog and the grief
of the little boy were not trivial things.
It was a bitter tragedy to the little
master the first great sorrow of his life
and first sorrows are lasting. To those
of us who saw and sympathized. It was a
real grief, but it was good.
The dying of the dog and the sorrow of
the boy made us better men.
; A. A. G.
lines, and Superintendent Campbell, of
the O. R. & N., held conferences with
a committee from the men. but the peti
tion for more money was turned down.
The men have decided to go over the
heads of these two officials and deal di
rectly with Mr. O'Brien.
They hope for more favorable action
when it is brought to the attention of
the general manager that the men, can
not live in Portland on $2.10 a day.
Should their request be again turned
down, there is no strike threatened, as
the men are showing the best of feel
ing, but the matter will probably be
taken up In union circles and the next
step decided upon.
The committee expects to call upon Mr.
O'Brien when he returns to the city the
first of next week.
Concession to Hopmen.
The Southern Pacific has made a con
cession to hopmen by permitttg the ship
ment of hops in carloads with a mini
mum of 20,000 pounds without compelling
loading to visible space capacity at the
same rate, $1.50 per 100 pounds, as was
formerly charged to the East on ship
ments having the same minimum where
space-loading capacity was compelled.
Another advantage to the shippers is that
shipments dn excess of a carload, but
which do not amount to enough to
make up another car, and thus secure
the advantage of the car rate, will be
carried, if shipped on the same shipping
receipt, at the carload rate.
President Stuart Resigns.
A. A. Stuart, of New Tork, president
since its organization of the Willamette
Construction Company, and personal rep
resentative here of Moffat & White, the
builders of the Portland-Salem electric
line, has resigned his position and left
for his home in the East. He has beep
succeeded by B. V. Frothingham, of New
Tork, who has arrived and who will take
up the work where Mr. Stuart left off.
LONGSHOREMEN ASK RAISE
DEMAND INCREASE IN WAGE
FOR HANDLING LUMBER.
Notice Served on Shippers of Inten
tion to Require Raise Fro.m 40
i
to 50 Cents Per Hour.
Local transportation companies handling
lumber by the water route are being
served with notices of an intended de
mand for an increase In wages on the
part of the ' longshoremen engaged in
loading and unloading coastwise and
deep-sea vessels on the Pacific Coast.
According to the longshoremen, it is
their intention to demand this increase
about October 7, and the notices sent out
request the exporters to reply by that
date. Each communication comes from
the headquarters of the longshoremen of
the Northwest at Seattle, and is signed by
W. J. Shields.
The text of the letter contains the pro
posed demands of the longshoremen and
Informs the employers that they desire an
increase from the present scale of 40 and
60 cents an hour for straight and over
time work to 50 and 75 cents.
At the local headquarters of the union
the men were not communicative on the
subject, and stated that they would not
talk on the subject until better Informed.
Fred P. Baumgartner, local agent of
the California & Oregon Coast Steamship
Company, stated that he was perfectly
willing to accede to the request of the
longshoremen, providing they exacted the
same rate for handling lumber from all
the shippers, but added that in his deal
ings in the past with the unions he had
found that they discriminate in favor of
other corporations. The particular in
stance of favoritism shown he cites in the
case of the gangs working the Harriman
liners, who are paid at the rate of 40 and
60 cents an hour, while he Is required to
pay 50 and 82 cents for the same class of
work.
"When I protested to the union," said
Mr. Baumgartner, "I was informed that
It was a separate union which handled
the O. R. & N. steamers, and yet I know
for a positive fact that men who have
worked on my vessels for 50 cents have
performed the same labor for the corpora
tion for the lesser sum. I do not think
this is fair on the part of the union."
' Other operators voice the same com
plaint, but as they have no other recourse
they have to pay the charge.
There were no new developments in the
grainhandlers' strike, although a few
more nonunion men were put to work on
the various docks, but no effort was made
to unload any of the cars on the sidings.
This work will probably be taken up next
week.

remedies previously, but Doan's Kidney
Pills -were the only retnedy that helped

years, during which time I suffered from
irregular action of the kidneys and back

the aching and weakness that I could not
rest in any. position. I suffered from
headaches and dizziness and could hardly
attend to the simplest of household duties.

W
HEN you have Heartburn,
Colic, Coated Tongue, Sus
pected Breath, Acld-rising-in
throat. Gas-belching, or an
incipient Cold, take a Cascaret.
, Remember, all these are not merely
Dlscomforls, but indications of a serious
Cause. ' ,
Nip them in the bud eat a Candy Cas
caret. Cascarets don't purge, nor punish
thestomach like "Bile-driving' "Physics."
They act like Exercise on the Bowel
Muscles that propel Food, and that squeeze
the natural Digestive Juices of the body
into Food."
Cascarets ward off, or cure, the following
diseases:
Constipation
Bad Breath
Headache
Diarrhcca.
Flatulenct
Jaundic
Nausea
Vertigo
Pimples
Blotches
Biliousness
Indigestion
Dyspepsia
Torpid Liver
Appendicitis
Colic
Worms
Piles .
In such cases a little Cascaret in time is
worth .fifty dollars worth of Treatment later
on, to say nothing of the suffering, discom
fort, loss of Business Energy, and loss of
Social Sunshine it saves.
Headaches, Heartburn, Gas-belching,
Acid-risings In the throat, and Colicky feel
ing are sure signs of bowel trouble from
food poisons, and should be dealt with
promptly.
. One Cascaret will stop the coming
trouble, and move on the Bowel load, If
taken at the first signs.
Don't fail to carry the Vest Pocket Box
of Cascarets with you constantly.
All Sruggists sell them over ten million
boxes a year.
Be very careful to get the genuine.
