Twenty-live cargoes with more than
2.000.000 bushels of wheat. So.OflO barrels
of flour, nearly a full cargo of barley and
3.rXi.0X) feet of lumber were cleared fop
foreign ports during "January. The ex
ports are not as heavy as those, of Decem
ber by several thousand bushels of wheat,
hut the difference was nearly balanced
by the heavy lumber exports.
During December not a sinirle ves2l
cleared for a foreign port with lumber,
while January shows- up with exports of
13.c40.0ii0 feet. With the exception of one
cargo, which cleared for La Boca, Pan
ama, the timber is destined for the Crient
nnd Australia. Coastwise shipments have
been heavier than for some time past,
over R.O0O.OIJ0 feet having cleared for Cal
ifornia ports. The larger portion of the
lumber was carried in vessels belonging
to the Loop Lumber Company, which Is
associated In business with the Inman
Poulsen -mill, in Portland.
The grain exports lor the- month are
nearly three times aa large as those of
the corresponding month in 1907. Dur
ing that period the exports amounted to
842.if.i8 bushels of wheat, SS.37:1 barrels of
flour and 3.37H.3K2 feet of lumber. During
January of 1907 eight vessels cleared for
eign, as compared with 25 for the corres
ponding month of the present season.

Gasoline Schooner Condor Will Op

The gasoline schooner Condor, now un
dergoing repairs at Stipple's boatyard,
will be placed in commission as soon as
possible and will make regular trips be
tween Astoria and Yaquina Bay. The
Condor is owned by the Waldport Lumber
Company and will carry supplies south
and farm produce north. A ten-day rched
ule has been arranged.
The Condor Is of 70 net tons. She is a
little smaller than, the Berwick, which
operates between Portland and Rogue
River. She is rigged as a schooner and
can. make, sail if necessary. Her owners
have erected a sawmill at Alsea Bay,
south of Yaquina. As the former cannot
be entered by seagoing craft, the supplies
for the mill will be discharged at some
point In Yanuina Bay. Tributary to New
port and otlirr towns is a large farming
community and the butter, egas and pro
ducts will make up good cargoes for the
North.
All Oregon Coast ports will have water
transportation with the outride as soon as
the Condor is slaced on the run. The

Stalls Narrowly Escapes Destruction
at Sea Off South America.
SAN FKANCIKCO. Jan. 31. The
German steamer Slatis of the Cosmos
line, which arrived yesterday from
Hamburg by way of Acapulco, reports
that for three weeks, between Callno
and Central America, the coal was on
fire In the bunkers and that the fire
was only extinguished after hard work.
It was finally accomplished without
damage to the vessel.
A passenger on the Slatis was Charles
Ensen. second mate of the American
ship St. Francis, who returns suffering
from a fractured leg, the result of an
accident at Callao. The ship had start
ed to drag her anchors, and Ensen and
a sailor went out in a small boat to lay
another anchor. By mistake the sailor
cut the line too 'soon, and the falling
anchor capsized the boat and by means
of a fouled line took Ensen below the
surface a distance of several fathoms,
when the line, after fracturing his leg
in two places and tearing the flesh
from the bone, slipped off and allowed
him to rise, unconscious, to the surface.
Ho was finally rescued and for the fol
lowing ten weeks lay in a hospital. .

Captain Jebsen, with which to inaugurate
a steamship line from San Pedro to Mexi
can ports. Mr. Campbell and his friends
have purchased 500.000 acres near Acapul
co, Mexico, and will raise bananas, cocoa
nuts, pineapples and "other tropical fruits
for the northern .markets. The company
now employs several hundred men on its
plantation. Mr. Campbell will leave San
Pedro on the first trip of the Use early
next week. The steamer is of 2000 tons
and is equipped with a cold storage plant.
A great deal of interest is being taken
locally in this Oregon enterprise. Much
has been said of late about the Impor
tance of extending trade relations with
Mexico, but when it came to putting up
money to advance the matter local mer
chants were conspicuously tardy. Of
course, this Campbell line will be mostly
for the purpose of darrying the products
of the company's vast estate, but it
means the opening of a new trade channel
which is bound to reach important pro
portions. Confirmation at Seamen's -Institute.
Right Rev. Charles Scadding, D. D.,
bishop of the diocese, will, visit the Sea
men's Institute, Front and Flanders
streets, tomorrow (Sunday) evening, to
administer the rite of confirmation to
three apprentices from ships m port. The
services will begin at 7:30 and all friends
of the mission are most cordially invited.

PROTESTS AGIST
PAYING SON'S FINE
Mother Insists That Police
Judge Send the Young
Man to -Jail.
OTHER USES FOR MONEY
Mrs. II. G. Johnson, of Arieta, C'om
plains "When Part of Bail Is Con
fiscated Teamster Is Fined
for Obstructing Streetcar.
A mother persisting that her son fie sent
to jail rather than that she be compelled
to pay his fine, was the unprecedented
spectacle presented in the Municipal
Courtroom yesterday, when A. Cart
wright, a young expressman, was fined fciO
for assault and battery. Mrs. H. s.
Johnson, of Arieta, Cartwright's mother,
had put up bail in the sum of $40 for her
son's release at the time of his arrest
Wednesday.. It was money that she had
saved with great care and was intended
to meet a payment. on the mortgage on
her little home in Arieta. The installment
is due today.
Through having bail up, Cartwright was
fined rather than sent to jail when con
victed of a vicious assault on Iouis Carl,
another expressman. Judge Camercn lev
ied a fine of half the amount of ball and
ordered that it be collected. This was
done and Cartwright was released.
Mrs. Johnson refused to approve of this,
and later made the extraordinary demanu
that her son be allowed to "lay it out in
jail," to use her own expression. She had
put up the money as bail, so that he
could go ahead with his work, but was not
willing that any. of the money shou.d
be confiscated by the court. She thought
the young man ought to be allowed to put
in the time in the City Jail.
"I have saved this money to meet pay
nent on a mortgage that falls due lomor-"
row. When the boy got into trouble my
husband, his step-father, put up the
money," .she told the court attaches in
seeking to set aside Judge Oameron7s
verdict. "Mr. Johnson didn't know the
money could be made to apply on a line.
Now that the money is gone, I will have
to borrow $20 to make up the payment on
the mortgage."
Mrs. Johnson's suggestion that her son
serve 10 days, which is the equivalent of
a fine of $20. ' could not be met. Under
the Oregon law fines must be paid in cash
and cannot 'be served out. The Municipal
Court likewise has authority to collect
fine in misdemeanor cases out of money
deposited as bail, whether the money is
put up by the defendant or not. The sec
tion of the Oregon code malting this pro
vision was read to Mrs. Johnson by Muni
cipal Clerk Hennessy and she than turned
her attention to-getting the fine. cut down.
Judge Cameron declined to make any re
duction, saying he thought the fine was
extremely lenient considering Cartwright's
offense. From the evidence it was shown
clearly that he brutally beat the other
expressman in an altercation over a job
which both men wanted. Carl says he
received a slight fracture of the cheek
bone where he was struck by Cartwright.
East Slders, "no doubt, will find partic
ular satisfaction in reading of this adven
ture of the man who gets his team on the
car track and holds up traffic on the
bridges at dinner hour.
The driver, Lester C. Douvall, was hav
ing a barrel of. fun at the expense of 40
passengers on a Sellwood car. He was in
front of the car. The car could not very
well run over his wagon and tne Im
patient remarks of the belated passen
gers, -hungry and eager to get home,
only appealed to his sense of humor, ..19
turned and ' laughed repeatedly at the
carload of people.
Detective Lillis, employed by the street
car company, chanced to be aboard Lie
car and he got off to interview the team
ster, demanding that Douvall draw asiae
and let the car pass. Douvall made some
remarks to the officer which do not yield
readily to publication, whereupon -he was
arrested for blockading traffic.
When tried in the Municipal Court yes
terday forenoon, Douvall Insisted that his
wagon was too heavy to turn out for the
car on the bridge. But the fact mat he
had turned and laughed at the passen
gers was against him.
'You were not delaying the streetcar
company; you were delaying the public,"
said Judge Cameron. "That is a serious
matter and even though" this Is your first
offense, I do not feel like letting you off
with a reprimand. You will be required
to pay a fine of $5."
Wedding bells rang for Miss Ruby
Lindsay and. Frank Cross in the Munici
pal Court yesterday afternoon.
Ihey had not intended getting married
for several months yet, but the wedding
was expedited through the arrest of the
young couple for being out too late. They
were roaming about at 2 o'clock yesterday
morning when Patrolman Parker hailed
them and took them to the Police Sta
tion for not heeding the midnight curfew.
It is possible they could have escaped
by fighting the case against them, as the
offense Is not a serious one. However,
when Deputy City Attorney Tomlinson
suggested matrimony as the easiest man
ner of settling the matter, they Jumped at
the chance. They wVre married by
Municipal Judge Cameron immediately.
P. A. Carlander yesterday paid $10 for
having spanked the little iboy who called
to take his daughter to church Sunday.
Ralph Walton, a bright boy of 14, took
lime miss Carlander to. church, unbe
known to Carlander, who went out in
search of them. He found them returning
rrom tne mgnt service. He called the lit
tle boy some severe names and snanked
him thoroughly. The boy retaliated by
Having tne iacner arrested.
"I see no reason why you should have
handled this lad roughly," said the court.
"There surely is nothing wrong in taking
a little girl to church. You were wrong.
Your fine will be $10."

Filipinos Deposit' Savings in

SAFEGUARD TO INVESTMENT
Advisory Board Looks After Invest
ment of Funds, the Channels of
Which Are Ijimited Bank Is a
Much-Needed Requirement.
ORKGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington, Jan. 31. Th view of the fact that
the postal savings bank will be under
consideration in Congress this Winter,
the workings of the postal savings bank
in the Philippine Islands becomes of un
usual interest, particularly as it is the
first institution of the sort to operate un
der the American flag. The subject is
briefly discussed in the annual report of
the Chief of the Bureau of Insular Af
fairs, War Department, who says:
Begin nine: of the System.
The postal savings bank in Manila began
operation en October 1. 39UU. and on June
30. 11)07. there were open for the trans
action of business throughout ' the islands
235 offices with resources amounting to
510,100.04 pesos. . The number of accounts
opened during- this period was 2076, and of
the depositors 60 4 per cent were Americans,
35.3 per cent Filipinos, li.2 per cent Euro
peans; Asiatics. 1.6 per cent, and societies.
0.5 Der cent. It will be noticed that the
American deoofiltors were in the majority,
which was largely due to the fact that the
stamps, a large shipment of which was
made from Washington in the .early part
of the present year, did not arrive in the
islands until March. Since their distribution
began, however, there Has been a steady
growth in the monthly deposits. The stamps
were designed more especially for th,e
school children, and the fact that they were
available only a few days before the, close
of the school year (April) will also serve
to account for the relatively small deposits
made by Filipinos difring the period cov
ered by this report. t
Investment In Hands of Board.
The investment of the funds of the postal
savings bank is placed by law in the hands
of an Investment board, which at present
is composed of the Secretary of Commerce
and Police, the Secretary of Finance and
Justice, the Director of Posts, the Insular
Treasurer, and one business man of the
City of Manila. On the recommendation of
this board funds of the postal saving bank
have been Invested In banking institutions
of the Islands to the amount of 490.000
pesos in the form of time deposits bearing
3Ve per cent interest. The banks with
which these deposits have been made are
all duly authorised depositories of tha
Philippine government, and the fuuds de
posited with them are amply protected by
surety bonds filed with the Treasurer of the
United States.
' Method of Investment.
For the purpose of providing a more lu
crative field of investment for the bank's
funds laws have been enacted providing that
loans may be made upon city real estate,
under carefully guarded provisions, to the
extent of 25 per cent of the total deposits
of -the bank; upon Improved agricultural
land to the extent of 10 per cent of the
total deposits; upon any securities the prin
cipal or interest of which is guaranteed by
the Government of the united otatea or
of the Philippine Islands, and to the vari
ous provinces for public improvements
under the guaranty of the insular govern
ment. Under this last provision one of
the provinces has already applied for a
loan of 160.000 pesos for six years, with
interest at the rate of 5 per cent.
The total expenses of the bsfnk from its
Inauguration toJune 30, 1907, were 37.393.35
pesos. If from this amount there be de
ducted the sum of 6490.36 pesos, represent
ing interest earned on the Investment of
the bank's funds, there will be left the sum
of 30,897.90 peso, representing the real
deficit for the period indicated. A consid
erable part of this deficit is, however, more
nominal than real, for, excluding from con
sideration that part of the supplies in the
hands of the postmasters which will not
have to be duplicated for several years,
there were on hand In the division of sup
plies on June 30, 1IK7, supplies to the esti
mated value of 10,000 pesos. ,
Postal Bank Much Needed.
The Filipinos have had little opportunity
to make Investment of their savings or to
make them secure In any manner, least of
all in a manner to yield any income. Amer
icans and a few Filipinos have in the past
made use of postal money orders, 'payable to
themselves, as a means of Fafeguarding

their earningff for a time. Such an Invest
ment of course draws no interest, and it
was estimated hy the Governor-General in
his report for the nseal .year ended June
HO. 1006, that there were a million pesos
held in this form at the time at which
he wrote. The money so held could not be
used by the Government for the purpose of
reinvestment, and was, therefore, entirely
stagnant in the .community.
The postal savings bank meets a much
needed requirement in the islands, and is
one of the -most important pieces of legis
lation enacted by the Commission. It im
mediately enabled persons to deposit with
the Government small sums of money, on

SEATTLE. Wash., Jan. 31.-(Special.)
A divorce decree granted yesterday af-.
ternoon at the request of Mrs. Antone.
Stander, separating her from her hus

met, loved and wedded. With a fortune
they came to Seattle and bought much
real estate. Among the buildings he
erected is the Stander Hotel, now known
as the Butler Annex. Property brought
its sorrows and the husband became
brutal. The divorce is the culmination of
many quarrels. The property matter
was settled out of court, the wife get

amount of nearly $350,000.
Stander's fortune was greatly dissipat
ed before the divorce suit was begun,
and he was prevented from further ex
cesses by injunction proceedings.

Nearly every woman would feel
better for a Cascaret every day.
Women, exercise less than men.
That's why they need help most.
A woman moved into a new flat with a bath room, and she said to
visitor: "You don't know how anxious I am for Saturday night. I
want to take a bath." ; .
That's what some of us do with our bowels.
We get into the habit of periodical cleansing. And we never realiz.
how much better it is -to give a little help every day.
That's the reason for Cascarets.
To give you a convenient vest-pocket laxative, the action of which is
as. natural and gentle as the action of laxative foods.
They are not like the old-time physics castor oil, salts and cathartics.
We took them only when we were forced to.
We let matters run until the bowels were clogged, and we were miserable.
Today we keep at our best.
The way is to take one Cascaret just as soon as you know that you
need it. The results are as pleasant as the dose.
Those who exercise enough, and eat coarse food and plenty of fruit,
don't need them. ,
All others do need them. Cascarets do just what Nature does for those
who live in a natural way.
Cascarets are candy tablets. They are sold by all druggists,
but never in bulk. Be sure you get the genuine, with CCC
on every tablet. The pricevis 50 cents, 25 cents and
