1C THE MORNING OBEGONIAS, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1907. WILL WORK FOR . EQUITABLE RATES E. W. Wright Leaves Today for London io Attend Ship owners' Meeting. TRY TO END DIFFERENTIAL Facts Will lie Presented to Members or Sailing SUip Owners' Union. Port ot Cotambla Act Will Have Weight. ' 'I' Chamber of Commerce, in connec Usa with the O. R. & N. Co. and the Kerthcrn Pacific, is sending E. W. Wright to London to appear before the Salling- blp Owners' International Union at the April meeting. Mr. Wright was sent b the same parties to a meeting held in Paris last October, and at that time was sriven by the shipowners, the reasons for the levying of a freight differential of Is 3d per ton against Portland and in favor of,, Puget sound on all grain tonnage. The specific grievances claimed by the shipowners ag a reason for the differen tial were all satisfactorily adjusted with the exception of a charge of 30 cents per ton for hauling ballast away from the docks after Its discharge from the ship, and a charge for bar pilotage at the mouth of the Columbia, neither of these two charges being In effect on Puget Sound. By the passage of the Port of Columbia bill it has been possible to secure from the railroads an agreement to absorb the pilotage charge, and the Pacific Bridge Company has agreed to take care of all ballast free ot charge to the ship. The past Winter has been an exception ally hard one on shipping at the mouth of the Columbia, but Mr. Wright goes armed with an array of facts which prove beyond controversy that the Puget Sound fleet bas fared no better, and in the delays on account of sailor troubles, has suffered much worse than that from Port land. For this reason It Is expected that, unless some new grievance has developed nines last Fall, the shipowners will stick to their agreement and abolish, the dif ferential. Prior to the formation of the shipown ers' union, the rates were the same at Portland, Puget Sound and San Fran cisco, but for the past four years, Port land has been penalized to the extent of Ave shillings per ton, and Puget Sound to the extent of Sa 3d per ton in favor of San Francisco. The injustice In the rates Is the most pronounced In favor of San Francisco, but the heavy differen tial In favor of the bay city against Puget Sound and Portland, is of less concern in the- North, than the smaller one between the Northern ports. Mr. Wright will leave this afternoon, and will sail from New York next Thurs day. KECKIPTS INCREASING DAITjV Wlieat Coming In Larger Quantities. Conditions on Snake Klver. Wheat receipts are increasing daily, and grain vessels in the harbor are all working. The regular line steamer Nu manlla will complete her cargo tomorrow morning and will he ready to leave down Saturday at daylight. There are a num ber of crafts in port which will finish in ttme to total up a few thousand bushels of wheat for March exports. Knake River steamers are over 100,000 bushels behind on their grain 'deliveries. U will require hard work for the balance of the season to get all the crop from shipping points before new season grain begins to come in. In addition to this the low water will have to be counted on. March 1 there were 330,400 sacks of grain at points above Riparia waiting ship ment. Coal famine, car shortage and iee Bit played a part in the grain blockade on the river. During February less than 10,000 sacks were moved. The three boats operated by the O. R. & N. Co., were iied up for about ten days either for want of fuel or because there was an insuf ficient amount of rail tonnage to take out the grain. On completion of the Snake River railroad as far as Almota it was ex pected that this would relieve the steam ers to a great extent, but up to date the rail line has not moved a sack of wheat, either from Almota or points below. TELEPHONE GOES TO DOLPHIN Rumor Has It That Captain Spencer lias 1 .leased the Steamer. The steamer Telephone, which ha5 laid at the old Duniway dock on the East Side for the past 18 months, was towed to the dolphin and tied up yesterday.

Some months ago Captain i Cochrane, managing owner of the steamer stated that he would take her to San I Francisco and place her in commission ! on the Sacramento River. No action was I taken In this regard. Now It Is as ' aerted that Captain Spencer has secured ; -ontrol of the craft and will operate her - In connection with the Charles R. , Spencer, on The Dalles run.

WILL DISCUSS ANNEXATION Residents of Settlements Along Mt. Scott Line Call' Mass Meeting. A mass meeting of the people of the settlements along the Mount Scott rail way between Anabel and Woodmere, will be held in Laurelwood hall tomorrow night at 8 o'clock to discuss the question of annexation to Portland. At a recent meeting of the' Woodstock Push Club, C. Ben Riesland, I. J. Kelly and O. T. Olsen were appointed to take np the cam paign for a vote on annexation In the southeastern district. It is felt that, so far as Woodstock and the territory as far as the county road east of Woodstock was concerned, missionary work for an nexation had already been done. Some oppostion was encountered there, but it has been practically overcome. How ever, there is eome strong opposition ap parently east of this road including the thick settlements along the electric car line, and this committee desired to ascertain just what the sentiment of the people Is toward annexation. Two years ago a mass meeting held In the hall atyKern Park did declare for annexation, and appointed a committee to take the matter up, but it was then found that action had been taken too late to get a vote on the question at the gen eral election, so it was decided to post pone the movement until the election of 1907. Since then several thousand people have been added to the population and sentiment may have changed. The principal object of the committee is to get a vote on the question at the June election. If it be found that - the general sentiment of the people Is ap parently against annexation to Portland in the Arleta district, then the line will be drawn on the county road just west of Anabel, and the settlements to the eastward will not be included in the annexation movement. The population of the district it in proposed to annex to Portland Is various ly estimated from 10.000 to 15.00C. CITY PHYSICIAN IS CHOSEN Dr. Y. Jt. Corfman Elected by City Board of Health. Dr. W. R. Coffman was elected City Physician at a matins of the Health Board yesterday afternoon.

Zeigler and the other two Dr. Coffman. Mayor Kane, who is the ex-officio member of the board, was then called upon to cast the deciding hallot. which was for .Coff man. "Now Is the time for fireworks, so come ahead with your speeches." remarked Mayor Lane to the members of the board when it was found that there was a dead lock. Mayor Iane was asked to vote, but he said he would rather have a little time in which to make up his mind. The other members insisted that he decide then and there and he voted for Dr. Coffman. The election yesterday was held to fill the vacancy created by Dr. W. V. Spencer, who resigned. The meeting of the board was held to discuss the new garbage crematory, and It was voted to advertise for bids for the construction of such a plant. The new crematory will have a capacity of not less than 100 tons of mixed garbage a day. The site of the plaivt has not been determined. The cremators" will not cost over $120,000, and the action of the board yesterday in ordering advertisements for bids was authorized at the last meeting of the Council.- County AV. C. T. V.

HIS SKIN NOW FINE AND SMOOTH AS SILK "I wish to inform you that you. wonderful Cuticura haa put a stop to twelve years of misery I passed with my son. As an infant I noticed on big body a red spot and treated same with different remedies for about five years, but when the spot began to get larger I put him under the care of doctors. Under their treatment the disease spread to four different parts of his body. The longer the doctors treated him the worse it grew. During the day it would get rough and form like scales. At night it would be cracked, inflamed, and badly swollen, with terrible burning and itching. When I think of his suffering, it nearly breaks my heart. His screams could be heard down-stairs. The suffering of my son made me full of misery. I had no ambition to work, to eat, nor could I sleep. "One doctor told me that my son's eczema was incurable, and gave it up for a bad job. One evening I saw an article in the paper about the wonderful Cuticura and decided to give it a trial. "I tell you that Cuticura Ointment is worth ite weight in gold, and when I bad used the first lbox of Ointment there was a great improvement, and by the time I had used the second set of Cuti cura Soap.
