PORTLAND HARBOR
ably when Edwards went over the side
with a wrench to tighten a bolt on
one of the suction pipes. No one saw
him fall overboard or neard an outcry,
but it is supposed he lost his footing
and slipped into the river. No trace of
his body has yet be-en found.
Edwards was a native of Scotland. 38
years of age and had been employed
on the dredger for aoout six years. So
far as known he has no relatives in
this country. A mother, brother and
sister reside in Scotland. He was a
member of the Eagles Lodge of The
Dalles. Edwards was to have been
married to an Astoria young lady on
Christmas day.

TOTAL TONNAGE, 86,132
Xlne Foreign Steamships, 26 Sailing
Vessels and Eight Coastwise
Steamers Slake Largest Fleet .
Ever Assembled Here. "
Placed stem to stern and stretched out
through the harbor, the ocean vessels
now In port would make a continuous
line more than three miles in length.
This estimate is based on the average
length of a sailing vessel. Including
overhang, to be 300 feet and the average
length of the tramp steamships to be
400 feet. The average length of the coast
ing steamships will exceed 275 feet.
Adding to the above figures the schooners
and barkentlnes the three mile figure is
easily passed.
Nine large steamships, flying foreign
flags; 26 sailing vessels, only three of
which fly the Stars and Stripes, but are
tinder charter for foreign loading, and
eight coasting steamers varying in size
from the Col. B. L. Drake. 360 feet in
length to the diminutive Washington,
which measures 170 feet This is the
largest fleet which has ever been in the
Portland harbor at any one time. The
total number of vessels exclusive of
schooners and barkentlnes, is 43 ocean
going crafts. With few exceptions all
will take either full or part' cargoes of
Itrain or flour, The Acme, an Ameri
can four masted bark, will carry lumber
to Europe: the Strafhord will also carry
out a full cargo of lumber , foreign; the
Valdivia will also take timber.
The nine foreign steamships In the
harbor have a total net registered ton
rage of 26.433 with a carrying capacity
of 66.010 tons of cargo. The 26 sailing
craft represent 50.952 net tons registered
end have a carrying capacity of 91.000
tons of cargo. The coasting steamships,
eight in number total up 8747 net tons
and will carry, principally In general
cargo,' 18,000 tons. Combined there are at
present in " the harbor of Portland 43
oceangoing carriers, having a registered
net tonnage of S6.132 and with a carrying
capacity of 175,000 tons.
The fleet was Increased yesterday by
the arrival of the steamship Col. R. L.
l)rake, the steamships Craigvar, Elgin
and Strathord and two sailers. The Col.
K. L. Drake is the only American in the
bunch and Is an oil carrier for the Stan
dard Oil Company. The Elgin will go on
the drydock tills morning for cleaning
and painting.
Estimates of the value of the products
which will be moved from Portland by
the fleet at present in the harbor, vary
considerably. While wheat will form the
Rreatost item, prices will be governed
by the market. Flour will be a big item
In the exports and lumber will keep even.
I'lte general cargo will be about normal.
Exports of grain and flour for Decem
ber bid fair to break all records from
this port for a single month. Three large
stranirfhips have cleared already and the
Como will finish this morning. The
Wavcrtree has completed cargo and will
leave down thi3 afternoon; the Persia
will get away ns soon as she can be
made ready and the Strathendrick will
aot be far behind.

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 11. Cast
adrift by the breaking of a hawser
during the fierce storm of the last few
days off the Northern Coast, the new
steam schooner Charmont narrowly
escaped destruction last Saturday
night while being towed to this city by
the steamer Qulnault. For 10 hours
the schooner, having on board five
sailors and a cargo of lumber, lay
helpless, entirely at the mercy of a
terrible southeast gale, which shifted
her cargo and almost laid her on her
beam ends. Finally she was picked up
by the Qulnault, which brought her to
port today.

S. Barnum. president of the Rogue River
Valley Railroad, was arrested by Sheriff
Jackson tonight at the Instance of C. L.
Reames, Deputy District Attorney, on a

Reddy this morning.
State Railroad Commissioner Oswald
West was In this city on his official du

was interviewing Mr. Barnum as to when
he would have a depot for the comfort
of his patrons. Mr. Barnum explained
that he was preparing to move the depot
formerly used to this present station
when the City Council passed an ordi
nance forbidding him to do so on account
of the fire limits. Meanwhile, he began
his attack upon Mayor Reddy, and the
councilmen on account of the action tak
en and became very abusive, working
himself into a frenzy and calling Reddy
vile names. The latfer resented this.
John Barnum, son of W. S. Barnum,
made an attack upon Dr. Reddy in behalf
of his father. Reddy made a pass at the
younger Barnum. who hurried away.
Meanwhile, Barnum Jumped from the en

Dr. Reddy only escaped by fleeing across
the muddy street. Bystanders grabbed
Mr. Barnum and prevented further dan

PECULIAR PROPERT
OF NEW
Cooper Preparation Attracts
tention by Expelling
Parasites.
. The Interest created in leading: cities
durlnp; the past year by young: Mr.
Cooper with hla new preparation, is
largely accounted for by a peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine,
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr. Cooper believes that internal
parasites, or tapeworms, are responsi
ble for much ill health, and it is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expelled immense numbers of these
creatures In various cities visited by
lilm. The young man also believes
that Btomach trouble Is the main. cause
of all 111 health. He claims that few
can have poor health with a good di
gestion. He further claims that his
New Discovery medicine does nothing:
but tone up the stomach, yet It not
only expels the parasites, but relieves
many other ailments not as a rule as
sociated with stomach trouble.
Little Jessie Birdsall, daughter of
Mrs. Ida Birdsall, living at 2138 Car
roll Avenue, Chicago, Is among many
relieved of a large parasite by Mr.
Cooper's preparation during his stay
In that city. In speaking of the mat
ter to Mr. Cooper, the mother said:

old, has been suffering with this
trouble for over seven years. Until

Internal the trouble was. She was extremely
nervous: the least little thing: would
upset her; her tongue was coated, and
at times ehe would have a good ap
petite, then again could not bear the
sight of food; she was restless at
night, had a bad breath, especially
when she got up of mornings. We
tried everything to relieve her, but met
with no success. We were Just on the
point of giving up trying anything else,
when we began to read of Cooper's New
Discovery. Several days ago we pur
chased this medicine. Jessie has been
using it regularly, and this morning
this parasite left her system. I don't
wonder that she has always' felt bad,
and nothing we would give her seemed
to relieve her. Now that she is re
lieved of this tapeworm I feel sure that
phe will grow better each day, and en
Joy perfect health. Mr. Cooper, your
medicine is worth a thousand times
more than you charge for It. I know of
a number of people troubled the same
way as Jessie has been, and I certainly
expect to tell them personally to try
your medicine."
We would advise any one who has
been troubled for some time with gen

know if he has it or not. It is a
solid fact, however, that we run
across men every day that are
complaining of weakness who have
been so negligent as to not even
examine themselves and discover
their troublo until it has run them
down and weakened them mentally
and physically.
WHAT IT 1 "Varicose Veins." a
Hunt U Upondlllon prevalent
in mnrf, is a dilatation or enlarge
ment of the veins, which from
various causes become corded and
knotty, feeling like a bundle of
earthworms. It usually occurs on
the left side and produces drag
ging sensation in the groin and
back. It often impairs the general
health and then causes much
worry, and you may grow de
