14 THE MORNING OREGONIAN. THURSDAY, JANUARY: 9, 1908. TWO VESSELS GLEAR Marthe Roux and Miltonburn Complete Wheat Cargoes. RECORD - BREAKING MONTH Grain Shipments to Date Are Nearly Double Those of Corresponding Period of Last Year Lumber Exports Are Much Heavier. The French bark Marthe Roux and the British bark Miltonburn cleared yesterday for the United Kingdom tot orders, with 255. 018 bushels of wheat. The French vessel carried 95,932 bush els, valued at $80,500, and the English man carried 159,086 bushels, valued at $135,000. . The clearance of these two craft brings the outbound foreign fleet up to . eight vessels. Total wheat shipments for the month amount to 715,051 bushels, which Is close, to double those of December for the corresponding time. During the first eight days of December the wheat shipments amounted to 426,245 bushels. "With the amount of tonnage In port and the number of craft which are ready to receive cargo, it Is possible that the present month will break' all rec ords for exports of grain, lumber and flour. December was short on foreign lumber shipments, not a single cargo having cleared for foreign ports. Up ward of 6.500,000 feet have cleared so far during January. Lumber business coastwise has fallen off considerably, and very little timber will go to California ports during the present month. Steam schooners and nailing crafts are being tied up ,ln large numbers and the crews dis charged. There, is a heavy movement of wheat south, but the regular ves eels are handling the trade and char ters for steam schooners are few and far between. DIVERS WORKING ON" WRECK Boiler of Annie Comings' Located at Bottom of River. Divers working on the wreck of the steamer Annie Comings have succeeded In locating the boilers of the lost craft. They are in 35 feet of water, and with in a few feet of the spot where the col lision took place, between that craft and the French baVk Europe. Yester day afternoon the sailing vessel was moved several hundred feet upstream. In order to give the divers a better chance to work, v The use of -the Gov ernment snagboat Mathlna has been necured to raise the boilers of the Com ings. The stern of the Annie Comings Is secured to a dolphin near Reeder's. That portion of the boat contains the en gines and barges and wrecking appli ances have been sent to the place for the purpose of securing them. The steamer Georgie Buxton is oper ating In thf nine a of th Annfp Com ings between Portland and . Washou gal. It was the Intention of the West ern Towing & Transportation Company to place a steamer in service between Portland and The Dalles in the near future, but the accident to the Com ings has disarranged .the plans. The boat was to hav handled the business of the Open-River . Transportation Company. Notice to Mariners. Columbia River entrance.

The Standard Oil Company's tanker Ashta bula, which arrived from Mororan Mon day night, reports that on December 10, when lying at anchor in Mororan, a strong northwest gale sprang up and caused the British steamer Seminole to drag her anchors. The Seminole was carried across the bow of the Ashta bula and collided with the tanker. In the collision several plates on .the star board quarter of the Seminole were stove in, and she was otherwise dam aged. The Ashtabula stem and haw ser pipes were also damaged: George W- Elder Off the Dock. The steamship Geo. W.

The fact that President Roosevelt is opposed to the creation of any new cabinet offices will probably serve to defeat numerous bills, now pend ing, to create a department of mines. For several years Western men have. advo cated the creation of a new department to have absolute jurisdiction over mines, mineral lands, and the handling of mine products.

But now that the Presi dent has expressed his disapproval, no legislation will be possible. . The President suggests, and many men believe, that it might be well to create a bureau of mines in the Interior Depart ment, similar to the General Land Office, and transfer to that bureau such parts of the Land Office and Geological Survey as handle matters affecting mines and min eral lands. If anything is accomplished along -this line at the present session of Congress it will be legislation creating a Bureau of Mines, conducted by a Com missioner of Mines1, who will have rank with the Commissioner of the General Land Office. Should this be done," the Land Office would be relieved of certain very Irksome duties, and the mineral work of that office could be brought in closer touch with the mineral work of the Geological Survey. ADMEN PLAN A BANQUET Given Just Before Departure of Del egation for California. Plans for a "jollification banquet" to be given by the Portland AdC1ub are near Ing completion.

FIRST TARIFF OUT Freight Rates, of New North Bank Road Appear Today. GO INTO EFFECT AT ONCE Products of Territory Tapped Will Be Carried Part Way by Steamer Until Portland & Seattle Com pletes Road Into This City. The first freight tariff to be. Issued by the Portland.' Seattle Railway, giving rates from Portland to the new territory tapped by the North Bank road, will appear today from the offices of Harry M. . Adams, general freight' and passenger agent for. the new Hill road. The tariff is a Joint one of the Portland . & Seattle and The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Company, the Hill steamer line on the Columbia. It In cludes elass and commodity rates .be tween Portland and Vancouver and stations on the Portland 4; Seattle Railway from Avery to Pasco via Lyle. The tariff contains rates on grain, flour flaxseed and mill feed, potatoes, onions, salt, cereals and cereal prod ucts, fruit, vegetables and shingles. Class rates on various classes of mer chandise from Portland to the follow ing stations are thus shown in the new tariff: Cliffs 47. 39, 33, 28, 22, 24, 20, 15, 15, ZVt Roosevelt 65. 55, 46, 39, 32, 32. 26 20, 16, 15; Plymouth 86, 71. 60, 61, 40. 40, 34. 26. 21, 17: Hoover 97, 81. 68, 58, 46, 39, 29. 24, 19. Rates on grain, potatoes and onions from Hoover and Plymouth Will be 15 cents a 100 pounds, and from Roosevelt and Cliffs 124 cents.' Shingles will be carried 1n carloads from Portland to al points on the line for 15 cents a 100 pounds. This tariff is an entirely new one, for there has been no -former rate sheet covering this territory. Products of the district to be tapped by the new road were shipped .across the Colum bia and came out by the O. R. & N. or. bj the river steamers operated by the Open River Transportation Company. It was not necessary, to give the. usual notice required by the. Interstate Com merce Commission, because of the pro vision by that body In the 'issuing of tariffs 'by new railroads. The rates will, be put in .effect at once and freight will be carried by steamer part way until the Portland & Seattle completes Its line Into Portland. The rates just named will be substantially those in ef fect on tho railroad when, completed. Temporary offices of the Portland & Seattle Railway will be moved during the next few days from Room 14 in the Union Depot to the Portland & Seattle freight house at Eleventh and Hoyt streets. This will not be a permanent location, but will be used until office quarters can be found downtown. It is likely the officials flnally'will settle In the new Commercial Club building, but these quarters will not be ready for the next 50 days.. " Circulars were issued yesterday an nouncing the appointment of Harry Adams as general freight and passen ger agent for the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad and naming R. H. Jen k4ns as assistant to Mr. Adams, both on the Astoria & Columbia River Rail road and the- Portland & Seattle. The headquarters of both officials wilt be Portland. This action gives the same officials charge of the A.' & C and the P. & S., which was anticipated at the time the Astoria road was purchased by the Hill interests. GIVES CROSS-TOWX SERVICE Old Schedule. Partly Restored on Mount Tabor Line. Changes- have been made in the sched ules of the Montgomery and Mount Tabor car lines. These lines have been con solidated and the Mount Tabor cars will cross the Morrison-street bridge and run to the head of Montgomery street. The new route will be taken up by the Mount Tabor cars commencing next Friday. The Sunnyside cars will make the loop around Third and Yamhill streets, as at present. President Josselyn finds there is a de mand for a cross-town service such as will be furnished by the new Mount Tabor route. People in the East Side suburbs can thus reach ye heart of the West Side residence district without changing cars.. It is believed this will prove a great convenience. A short time ago the Mount Tabor and Sunnyside cars wer,e on a similar run, but delays encountered at- the bridges made it advisable to take them off and run them only as far as Third and Mor rison. Better service will also be givfen on the Mount Scott division of the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company commencing next Saturday. Trains of two cars will fie operated on that line on a minute schedule, instead of single cars on a 15 minute schedule, as at present. Instead of four cars an hour, as at present, the new schedule will furnish six cars an hour, adding considerably to the passen ger capacity of the line. The older cars in service on the O. W. P. lines are being repainted and refitted and are being returned to 'service as fast as possible. - W. E. Coman Go-es East, W. B. Coman, assistant general freight agent for the- allied Harriman lines in this territory, left last night .for Chicago, where he goes to attend the meeting of the Transcontinental Freight Bureau. The session will last several weeks and a large amount of detail work will be taken up and disposed of. - At ' the same session an effort will be made to get out the new transcontinental east and west bound tariffs. Westbound Traffic Grows. Reports compiled" by the different rail roads entering Portland show that the westbound freight handled to this city during the month of December is con siderably larger in. volume than it was for. the corresponding month of 1306.

FACTS ABOUT NEW THEORY SECURED BY INTERVIEWS People TeU the Reason for Their Faith in . Cooper's Belief. An article from the Nashville, Tenn., Banner, published "during L. T. Coop er's visit to that city, throws some light on the remarkable success of the young man's theories and medicines In various cities visited by him during the past -year. The article' is as fol lows: "In view of. the enormous sale of Cooper's preparations now going, on in this city and the intense interest which Mr. Cooper has stirred up since his arrival, a representative of the Banner spent Thursday afternoon at the young man's headquarters, watch ing the swarm of humanity come and go. ' "During the afternoon the reporter1 interviewed many of the callers and obtained statements from all who cared to give them as to their expe rience with Cooper and his prepara tions. ' . ' ' "The ' following- are selected ' from those statements as being typical of the general expression of the people seen;.- "Mr. B. ' B. Lasater, living at 1224 North Fourth :-avenue, when inter viewed, said: 'I have been troubled with my stomach for the past, two years, and have had rheumatism .for more than five, years. - Sometimes I could not walk, and there were times when I could not even move in bed.

But the trouble is in the blood, which has become unhealthy and diseased, and Jceeps the sore open by continually discharging into it the impurities and poisons with which the circulation is filled. This poisonous condition of the blood may be the remains of some constitutional trouble; the effect of a long spell of sickness, or because the natural refuse of the body, which should pass off through the proper avenues, has been left in the system and absorbed into the blood. Again, the cause may be hereditary ; but it does not matter how the poison becomes intrenched in the blood, the fact that the sore will not heal is evidence of a deep underly ing cause, Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over ".

The reason I have placed my fee at the above figure irf that I want every weak or debilitated man to avail himself of my treatment, no matter . whether he be a millionaire or wage-earner. My Immense practice alone enables me to do this. In the practice of my profession It has ever been my chief aim to offer my skill to as great a number of sufferers as pos sible. My first care 1b to alleviate suffering wherever I find it, regard less of the sufferer's social or financial status. ' I Guarantee a Cure "i What I offer to do for the above named fee no other physician or special ist could do for you for any amount, no matter how great. The reason is that I am the only medical practitioner who GUARANTEES a cure of all the ailments of men. I can make such a guarantee because I know that mv methods never fall to cure every case I accept for treatment. If, after diagnosing a case, I have any doubt as to whether I can cure If,' I posi tively refuse to treat it. . In point of fact, however, 90 per cent of the cases that come to me are curable and I cure them by my treatment. I Cure Many So-Called Incurable Cases No matter If you have been pronounced incurable by others, don't hesi tate to come to me for treatment.
