THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, MAT 21, 1907. 10 '') ' -1 . I I I 1VANT OLD TENDER , Coquille People After Steamer . j Manzanita for Coast Run. M. L. BINGHAM IN PORTLAND , . Js Negotiating With Columbia Con- I tract Company for the Purchase . 'j of the Vessel Was Formerly j in the Lighthouse Service. j M. L. Bingham, of Coqullle, has re . turned to Portland and has renewed his -.' (endeavors to interest local merchants In the establishment of a steamship line 'ibinween Portland and points on the Co jquille. Mr. Bingham has been negotl ' !ating with owners of the steamship . ,JiIanzanlta for the purchase of that-craft .'. 'with a view to putting: her on the run. '(No definite agreement has yet been . .''reached between the Columbia Contract ! Company and Mr. Bingham. Early In March Mr. Bingham arrived ,ln Portland from Coqullle River for the .purpose of interesting local men In the , ' ; Coast c6untry. He was prepared at .that time to put Beveral thousand dol , rlars in a steamship enterprise provided " .the balance could be obtained from this lend. The project was taken up by the -' iChamber of Commerce and by the Board (of Trade. No definite arrangements were made and Mr. Bingham returned to ,his home for the purpose of perfecting ;plans at Coaullle. 3 On the former visit of the gentleman 'from Coqullle he partially negotiated for the purchase of the gasoline steamer '. jAnvil. This fell through and the vessel ' ihas since been sold to other persons. (Yesterday Mr. Bingham spent a large 'portion of the time In looking over the ''old Manzanita and in conferring with ' her owners. The Manzanita is being t thoroughly overhauled. It has been the " ' j intention of the owners to place her ,' towing rock barges from Skamokawa to Fort Stevens. ' j The Manzanita would make a splendid - (vessel for the Coqullle River run. She is a craft of 450 gross tons burden, is 152 (feet long, 28 feet beam and 11 feet depth . (of hold.. With a little remodeling she i would carry better than 300 tons of '.'freight. The Manzanita was built .for a ' j lighthouse tender, and for years operated ..lout of Astoria. The night of October 6, il!05. she collided with the dredge Col " iumbla at the foot of Coffey Island and (was sunk. She was afterward raised jand sold to Daniel Kern, of Portland, ' -for $13,500. Mr. Kern is one of the ! principal stockholders of the Columbia ' , Contract Company. Before the hole in her hull was re . paired and work on her reconstruction commenced, an offer was made by a ' Puget Sound Company of J20.000 for the 1 ' steamer. This was refused. It was the ' Intention of the Seattle concern to place ; her in commission as a salvage boat In .1 tae straits. i FLOOD WARNINGS SENT OUT l j River Will Heach 17.5-Foot Stage by Friday Noon. Flood warnings were sent out yester 1 day by Local Forecast Official E. A. Beals. By noon Friday the water will reach 17.6-foot stage at Portland. By tomorrow noon it will have reached 16.5 feet. Yesterday the water was over Ash street dock to a depth of several Inches. It rose rapidly all day. To submerge Alnsworth dock will require an ad ditional rise of 2.5 feet According to the figures of Mr. Beals the river will cover lower Alnsworth by Thursday night. A number of other docks In the city will be submerged at a less stage than the Alnsworth dock. Couch-street dock Is about the same height above low water as the steamship dock, and when water covers these it Is several inches deep in all the cellars along the street. Temperature east of The Dalles is high, and weather reports from that territory show no signs of cooler weather. For Portland and vicinity the forecast is for warmer weather and westerly winds. This will have a tendency to force the river up faster. DREDGE COLUMBIA AT WORK Making a Fill for Portland Gns Com pany Opposite St. Johns. The Port of Portland dredge Colum bia was lowered from the drydock yes terday and will go into .commission Immediately. The first work laid out for the Columbia will be a big fill at a point above the Government moor ings on the west side of the river. The site to be filled is the property of the Portland Gas Company and on the made ground the company contem plates the erection of a new plant. The gas company will pay $325 a day for the services of the dredge. The Co lumbia has been on the dock for more than a week and has had considerable work done on her. Steamer Spencer Relnspected. Relnspection on the steamer Charles R. Spencer delayed that steamer more than an hour yesterday morning in leaving for The Dalles. In order to meet the requirements of the law, as sistant inspectors are required to go over all vessels in the districts to which they are assigned. Since the in auguration of the excursion season the Spencer lays over only one day in two weeks. It was necessary for the in spectors to look over the vessel before she left in the morning. Captain Tozler Appointed. Captain D. F. Tozler, of the United States Life Saving Service, received no tice yesterday from Washington that he had been appointed superintendent of construction of life saving stations for the district embracing Oregon, Washington and California. This ap pointment removes the headquarters of life saving station construction to Portland, and largely increases Cap tain Toiler's duties. Marine Notes.

Attorney Moser Declares Ordinance Unconstitutional Mayor Has Not Yet Signed Revocation. The fight between the City Council and the license committee of the council on one side, and Andrew Kan and his at torney, G. C. Moser, on the other, as to the right of the Japanese merchant to sell goods under the terms of a second ers auction license while possessing only a flrst-class license, is still on. And before Mr. Moser will allow the Council to deprive his client of the license he holds, the attorney declares he will test the validity of the license ordinance and the action of the Council in the courts. "The ordinance revoking Mr. Kan's flrst-class auction license, ( which was passed at the last meeting of tile Coun cil, has not been signed by Mayor Lane yet," said Attorney Moser last night. "If the ordinance is signed by the city's executive or becomes effective anyway, 1 shall take the case into the courts. In the meantime we are continuing to do business under the license we hold from the city. "In the first place, the ordinance pro viding for the two classes of licenses, one for $160 a year and the other for $20 a dny, is unconstitutional, since it discriminates between goods that are brought Into the city during the year and goods that have been in the city for more than a year. If the ordinance finally Is held to be constitutional and the Council has the Tight to exact cer tain amounts of money for certain classes of auction business, then it is up to the city authorities to investigate and deter mine if the possessor of a flrst-class li cense is doing a class of business ex ceeding the rights conferred in his li cense. If it appears that he is, he should be arrested and prosecuted. "I further contend that the Council, under the ordinance, cannot refuse to issue a first-class license to whoever ap plies for a license of that kind. In the case of Mr. Kan, the license committee of the Council granted the license which we now have, after we paid the required fee for six morfths. . This action of the committee was ratified at the same meet ing of the Council by which an ordi nance was passed revoking this particular license. The Council, I contend, has no right to revoke and take away my client's license. Any violation of its pro visions must be prosecuted in the courts by fines and not by revoking the li cense. Whether the ordinance fixing the two classes of licenses is held to be con stitutional or not, we are going to put it to a test. If Mr. Kan is arrested I shall have him released under habeas corpus proceedings. If the authorities cause his arrest on succeeding occa sions, I shall get out an Injunction suit restraining the authorities from further interfering with my client and his busi ness." FORESTERS GO TO RAINIER Delegates in Portland on Way to the Annual Convention. The annual State Convention of the Foresters of America will be held at Kalnier today, tomorrow and Thurs day.

A good supply of California ber ries would have been on hand if the train had been on time, but a freight wreck; on the Southern Pacific prevented the fruit from reaching this market before the close of business hours. The disarranged scneauie also kept back the customary receipts of Southern Oregon berries and all that got through were a few crates shipped in on the locals from Spring brook and points in that vicinity. These were disposed of by the wholesalers as soon as received at 25 cents per pound. In the retail markets the stronsr demand and the small supply was considered a sufficient excuse for the making up of prices, and It was, at some stands, a case of pay 50 cents a box or go with out. Strawberries should be plentiful enough today and reasonable in price. In addi tion to the delayed shipment, the regu lar express will have about 400 crates from Florin, Cal., and a good supply from Southern Oregon. This will practi cally wind up the Florin shipping season, so far as this market is concerned; but Placer County will ship berries to the north until the Oregon crop Is more abundant. In about a week berries will be marketed from the country around Portland, and then the real strawberry season will begin. The crop which is now ripening is a large one and prices will be cheap. Federal Indictments Returned. The Federal Grand Jury returned an in dictment yesterday afternoon, and again retired, it is believed to investigate the furniture trust further. Deputy District Attorney Cole asked for the issuance of a bench warrant on the indictment re turned, with bail fixed at J1000. BUSINESS ITEMS.

How to Exercise the Bowels XT OUR Intestines are lined Inside vl'h millions of suckers, that 7 t draw the Nutrition from food aa it passes them. But, If the food passes too alowly, it decays before it gets through. Then the little suckers draw Poison from it instead of Nutrition. This Poison makes a Gas that injures your system more than the food should have nourished It. The usual remedy for this delayed pass age (called Constipation) is to take a big dose of Castor OH. This merely make slippery the passage for unloading the current cargo. It does not help the Cause of delay a trifle. It does slacken the Bowel-Muscles, and weakens them for their next task. Another remedy is to take a strong "Physio," like Salts, Calomel, Jalap, Phos phate of Sodium, Aperient Water, or any of these mixed. What does the "Physic" do? It merely flushes-out the Bowels with a waste of Digestive Juice, set flowing into the Intestines through the tiny suckers. Cascarets are the only safe medicine for the bowels. They do not waste any precious fluid of the Bowels, as "Physics" do. They do not relax the Intestines by greas ing them Inside like Castor Oil or Glycerine. They simply stimulate the Bowel- Muscles to do their work naturally, com fortably, and nutritiously. They are put up in thin, flat, round-cornered Enamel boxes, so they can be carried In a man's vest pocket, or in a woman's purse, aH the time, without bulk or t-ouble. The . time to take a Cascaret is not only hen you are Sick, but when you first suspect you need one. Price, 10c abox.
