JANUARY'S CARGOES, 21
Three Lumber Shipments Sent to the
Orient and 18 loads of Food
stuffs Gone Foreign From
Portland Marine Notes.
The French ship Armen and the Ger
man steamship Germanicus cleared
yesterday from Portland with wheat
and lumber respectively. The Armen
will go to Dublin direct and the latter
will proceed to Sydney, Australia, with
her cargo of Oregon fir. The Armen
carried lll,i61 bushels of grain, valued
at J97.061S, and the Germanicus 2,692,
855 feet of lumber.
To date 18 grain cargoes and three of
lumber have cleared from the local
Custom-House since the first of the
calendar year. The wheat shipments
total 1,664.624 bushels and the flour
65,651 barrels. The lumber shipments
foreign have run up to 9,605,553 feet,
all of which has been dispatched to
the Orienti
Coastwise lumber shipments run less
than 8,000,000 feet. Since the drop in
financial affairs the coastwise lumber
business has been handled exclusively
by vessels owned and operated by the
big mills.
Charters have been quiet for several
days and there is little outlook for an
improvement immediately. A large
number of the cargoes set afloat from
Portland and some of them for Febru
ary loading have been sold on specu
lation and the condition of the Liver
pool market is such at present as to
make chartering hazardous.
The German ship Nordsee, which ar
rived In port yesterday from Coquimbo,
Is under charter to carry a cargo of
wheat to Callao. This is the first cargo
of the kind to be loaded at this port
for a number of years. The Nordsee
is In ballast and will be ready for cargo
within a short time.

hvnncwlct Board of Trade Desires
Assistance of TJ. S. Engineer.
Colonel S. W. Roessler, United States

day with Mr. Richardson, a member
of the Board of Trade of Kennewlck,
WMsh., relative to the placing in com

ABERDEEN, Wash., Jan. 28. (Special.)
An agreement has been entered into by
W. B. Mack, manager of the Slade mill,
and the Wler Steamship Company, of
San Francisco, whereby steamers of that
concern will call here for lumber. The
company has contracts for carrying mall
from San Francisco to Australia and the
plan is to have 'the steamers put in here
for lumber, then go to British Columbia
for coal and back to San Francisco for
balance of lumber cargo, the condition of
the bar here preventing the taking of
complete cargo. The plan means much
for Grrays Harbor as it will help out the
foreign shipments and make a good mar
ket for surplus lumber products.

FIGHTS FOR BLOCK
Market Association Would Re
tain City Property.
WANTS GRANT RESTORED
Begins Suit in Court to Cancel Ac
tion Taken by Council In Revok
ing Rights for Violation
of Agreement.
The conflict between the People's
Market Association and the City Coun
cil and Mayor Lane has been renewed
by the filing in the Circuit Court of a
new suit against the city. The asso
ciation wishes ordinance No. 13,482,
and its amendment. No. .16,289, to re
main in force, and prays that the court
grant an injunction restraining the
city from interfering with the asso
ciation in its possession of the Market
block, at Market and Third streets, or
with the tenants. The association also
asks the court to declare illegal and
inoperative a recent ordinance taking
away the privileges of the association.
The negotiations over the Market
block date back to August 5, 1903,
when the Council granted the Union
Market Company the right to con
struct buildings on the property and
use it for general market purposes for
the benefit of the public. The build
ings were at first to be erected in the
center of the block, but later ordinance
No. 15,289 was passed, providing that
they be erected on the north side. On
March 21, 1906, the Council passed an
ordinance giving the People's Market
Association, successors to the Union
company, the right to occupy the block
for 25 .years. The Mayor vetoed the
measure.
Then Mayor Lane demanded that the
Council repeal the 1903 ordinance and
its amendment, the People's associa
tion having, it is said, spent only
$9000 on the basement and foundation
at this time. Since the recent action
by the Council against the association
the Chief of Police has notified the
tenants of the property on- the block
that they must vacate.

BURKHART FOUND GUILTY
Judge Suspends Sentence of Man
' Shot by Officer.
Herman Burkhart, a traveling sales
man, was found guilty of a charge of
resisting arrest, in the Municipal Court
yesterday forenoon. Sentence was sus
pended by .Judge Cameron. Burkhart is
the man who was shot in the back by
Patrolman Suitter three months ago
while attempting to escape, after having
been arrested for disorderly conduct in
abusing Mrs. Burkhart on the public
street. He was in the hospital for sev
eral days, and on getting out launched
a damage suit for $10,000 against Suitter.
In the trial, Burkhart -tried to bring
out testimony relating to the shooting
episode, obviously for use in his damage
case. Judge Cameron, however, limited
the evidence to the disorderly conduct
charge. In passing judgment on the
case, the court suggested that patrolmen
should use as . little violence as possible
in making arrests and should conduct
themselves in gentlemanly order at all
times.

FAVOR FIVE JUDGES
Members of Bar Unanimous
for Increase. -
TO WORK FOR AMENDMENT
Division of Opinion Is Expressed as
to Advisability of Taking Power
of Indictment From the
District Attorney.
The Multnomah County Bar Associa
tion, at its meeting last night at the
County Courthouse, expressed itself as
unanimously in favor of an amendment
to the constitution of the state,' in
creasing the Judges of the" State Su
preme Court from three to five. The
motion to adopt a resolution favoring
the increase was made by W. R. Mc-
Garry. and seconded by A. P. Tlfft. A
motion was made by H. King Wilson;
and seconded by Oglesby Young, to
appoint a committee of five, who should
give this question publicity through
out the state by communicating with
members of the bar in the various
counties. Chairman W. M. Cake ap
pointed -on this committee Harrison
Allen, Arthur Langguth, Ralph B.
Fisher, W. R. McGarry and A. P. Tifft.
Upon the question of an amendment
to the present state law which would
limit the power, of the District At
torney to return indictments against
alleged criminals and confine his power
to a grand Jury, there was a difference
of opinion. District Attorney Manning
was present at the beginning of the
meeting, and expressed himself as
heartily in favor of curbing the powers
of the District Attorney's office, as he
thought it was too much power to be
vested in one man.
"Mr. Manning has been doing some
good things," said Mr. Piggott, "espec
ially in whipping wealthy bank offi
cials into line, yet in my mind there
is no question but that there Is too
much power now vested in one man."
"1 think the law should be repealed,"
said Waldemar Seton, "for even if the
bank officials had come .before seven
average citizens, I believe the evidence
would have bc:en so overwhelming that
an indictment would have been re
turned." W. R. McGarry said he believed the
present system a good -one, and that
it was in force in Michigan, Ohio and
Indiana, where it was entirely satis
factory. Witnesses brought before a
grand Jury, he contended, are entirely
in the hands of the prosecuting attor
ney. He expressed himself as not radi
cally opposed to the amendment, but
believed a change in the present regime
should be carefully considered, "as
the District Attorney usually molds the
views of the grand Jury when a case is
before it."

v
Thousands of Men and
Trouble and Never Suspect It.
Nature warns you when the track of
is not clear. Kidney and bladder trouble
compel you to pass water often through the
day and get up many times during the night.
Unhealthy kidneys cause lumbago, rheuma
tism, catarrh of the bladder, pain or dull ache
in the back. Joints or muscles, at times have
headache or indigestion, as time passes you
may have & sallow complexion, puffy or dark
circles under the eyes, sometimes feel as
though you had heart trouble, may have plenty
of ambition but no strength, get weak and
waste away.
If such conditions are permitted to continue,
serious results are sure to follow: Brieht's

may steal upon you.
Prevalency of Kidney Disease.
Most people do not realize the alarming in
crease and remarkable prevalency of kidney

MEN CUR
MY SUCCESS in curing those functional dis
orders commonly termed "weakness" IS DUE
TO MY FULL UNDERSTANDING AS TO
THE CAUSATIVE CONDITIONS and to my
absolute scientific methods of removing
them. Many cases tof prematureness, loss of
power, etc, present a variety of symptoms
so entirely confusing and perplexing that
MOST PHYSICIANS have fallen into that
dangerous rut, the practice of treating by
set methods, without discrimination and
without KNOWLEDGE AS TO THE REAL
REQUIREMENTS. My first step is an abso
lutely scientific and accurate diagnosis. In
a large majority of cases I find the sole cause of these functional
derangements to be A SWOLLEN, IRRITATED AND CHRONICALLY
INFLAMED PROSTATE GLAND. This condition cannot possibly be
remedied by any treatment other than the local measures I employ, and
to ATTEMPT TO FORCE NORMAL ACTIVITY AND VIGOR BY THE
USE OF STIMULANTS and tonics would only result in aggravation
of the trouble. Under my treatment a cure is POSITIVE AND CER
TAIN, and absolutely permanent, because I accomplish it by the re
moval of every cause responsible for the disorder.

WHY NOT TREAT
with reputable specialists of known
worth and skill, rather than waste
your time with would-be specialists of
no skill 'or ability.
Is it not better to treat with a med
ical institute composed of men scien
tifically trained to cure and who are
men of standing and ability than to
treat with self-styled, so-called spe
cialists of limited experience, whose
vaunted cures are no cures at all?
