GRAIN CARGO FOR
THE 1ST COAST
German Ship Nordsee Clears
for Callao, Peru, With
Lead of Wheat.
VILLE DE MULHOUSE OUT
K.iports or Grain for February
Amount to 1,250,000 Bushels.
Cereal Year Will Break Rec
ords News of Waterfront.
Balfour, Gulhrlc & Co. cleared the
German ship Nordsee yesterday for
Callao, Peru, with S2.3-15 bushels of
wheat, valued at $83,101. G. W. McNear
cleared the French bark Ville de Mul
house for the United Kingdom with
3 40,63:1 bushels of wheat, valued at
$13f,43i.
The Nordsee is the first ship to clear
for the west coast of South America
this season. As a general thing about
one cargo clears for a South American
port each year. A number of steam
ers have taken part cargoes south
during the present cereal year, but the
grain carried by the Nordsee is the
lirsr to sro direct to Callao.
The clearance of the Nordsee and
the Ville dc Mulhouse brings the
February fleet up to 10 vessels, with
a total of 1,299.841 bushels of wheat.
Added to this is 17,000 barrels of flour
and a considerable quantity of lum
ber. For the first 17 days of January
the exports amounted to 1,237,471
bushels and for a corresponding period
In December to only 901,293 bushels.
December was the heaviest month of
the cereal year and January followed
a close second. From the present out
look February will rank among the
highest months for the season.
BARK ACME LOADING LUMBER
Charter-Party Has Been Arranged
and Vessel Is Working Cargo.
Differences between the owners of
the American bark Acme and the hold
ers of the charter were adjusted yes
terday and the vessel moved up to
the Portland mills, where she will load
a full cargo of lumber for New York.
"Work on the vessel will begin this
morning and she will be finished as
soon as possible.
The Acme arrived in the Columbia
River on November 26 In ballast from
Hlogo. She was in a crippled con
dition, her fore, main and mizzen topgallant-masts
gone. When six days
out from the Japanese port the vessel
whs thrown on her beam-ends. The
ballast shifted and the craft would
not right. For five days the vessel
was in hourly danger of destruction.
Cantain McKay finally ordered all the
upper rigging cut away. The ship
righted far enough to permit the men
to work the ballast back to position.
In spite of all the trouble and delay,
she. crossed the Pacitlc in 31 days.
After arrival in the Columbia River
the Acme was surveyed and ordered
repaired. The charterers contended
she was unlit for service and on that
account her charter was invalid. The
matter has finally been adjusted to
the satisfaction of both sides and the
Acme is loading.

Mount Hood Road Unwilling to
Act in Face of Mayor'
Lane's Attitude.
FEARS LONG-DRAWN FIGHT
Will Be Content to Enter City Over
Lines or O.. K. & X. or O. W. P.
Progress of Construction la
Eastern Multnomah.
"Realizing tle rough sledding a rail
road has to encounter when it asks a
franchise of any kind from the city of
Portland, we shall not make a request
for one; In fact, it is quite likely that we
will not build into Portland at all." .
This was the remarkable ' statement
made by a prominent official of the
Mount Hood Railway & Power Company
yesterday. ' He said that the attitude of
Mayor Lane is so uniformly unfriendly
toward new transportation lines that de
sire to build here that his company has
decided to avoid the usual squabble with
him over franchises. This official be
lieves that the required franchise could
be secured from the Council -whea the
value of the new line is explained to the
members but he says the Mayor's veto is
used so remorselessly on all railroad fran
chises that it is not worth while to en
gage In the struggle to secure the fran
chise over the Mayor's veto.
"Mayor Iane wants to be Governor,"
continued the Mount Hood company offi
cial. "He carries on his policy of veto
ing all railroad franchises so as to ap
pear to be fighting the railroads in the
interests of the people when such is not
the fact. He Is acting in direct opposi
tion to the best interests of the city.
"We do not have to come into Portland
with our road, although it would be better
both for our road and for Portland if we
did so. It would be folly to try to
enter the city at this time with a new
line, for the Mayor's policy of discour
aging railway enterprises is too well
known. We shall not make any requests
for franchises until there Is a change in
the administration and perhaps not even
then."
May Enter Over Existing Tracks.
The Mount Hood Railway is building
only to the vicinity of the O. W. P. cross
ing near Greaham. " Work between that
point and Portland has not been started,
although from Gresham out, grading for
the railway line is well along. The
Mount Hood road may enter Portland
over either the O. W. P. tracks from the
Gresham crossing, or by way of the O.
R. & N. line from Montaviila into the
Union Depot.
What Is the more surprising in the stand
taken by the Mount Hood company is the
fact that already the promoters have ex
pended over $200,000 for property within
the city over which to run their tracks
and these purchases extend from the city
limits on the east almost to the Willam
ette River. The original purpose of the
company was not to ask for franchises
along the city streets but merely to cross
certain streets in order to build the tracks
on the company's own property. It is
believed by the company that even this
concession from the city will carry with
it the demand of common-user tracks,
fees to the municipality, etc The com
pany .believes that with the tracks laid
on its own land there should be no de
mauds for common-user tracks.
The company's representatives say the
property purchased for right of way with
in the city is worth all that was paid for
It and can be sold at any time for the
full amount. They indicate that this Is
what will be done with it and that it will
not be used for the original purposes for
which It was purchased.
Despite this anticipated hostility to the
project at the Portland end of the line,
preparations are going forward rapidly
for the completion of the road from the
O. W. P. crossing near viresham to the
power station now "being built at Bull
Run. Construction crews are being as
sembled and within the next three weeks
about 1000 men will be put to work fin
ishing up the grade for the laying of
track. The object is to push the con
struction through at the earliest possible
moment and it is esttmated that the 20
miles of track from the O. W. P. crossing
to Bull Run will be completed within 60
days after the work is started. The
only reason the full construction force is
not put on immediately is the uncertainty
of weather for the next few weeks.
Long Cut Xear Gresham.
A steam shovel has been put to work
and is digging a cut 24 feet deep and 1500
feet long near Gresham. Grade Is ready
for track-laying from that point east
with the exception of a few places. One
bridge and two trestles will be built, the
grade finished and the track laid. Steel
rails to lay the track have arrived on the
ground and trolley wire for the overhead
work will be here by March L
The greater number of the condemna
tion suits that retarded progress on the
new road have been cleared up and right
of way secured. , Only a few remain to
be settled. " These will be handled as ex
peditiously aa possible, and as soon as
the Spring weather settles, work on the
Mount Hood project will be rushed. Mean
while work on the power station at Bull
Run Is progressing well and by the first
of next year it is expected to deliver
power to Portland. It is planned to have
the trolley line completed during the
coming Summer.
Promotion for R. M. Tovrnsend.
Robert M. Townsend, formerly contract
agent for the light and power depart
ment of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power Company, has been promoted to
the position of property agent of the
company and will have direct charge of
the general office building, land depart

Vice-President F. I. Fuller.
O. R. & X". Directors Meet.
A called meeting of the directors of the
O. R. & N. Company was held yesterday
afternoon In the offices of General Mana
ger O'Brien. Little of general interest
was transacted beyond the approval of a
contract between the road and the gov
ernment over the delivery of material at
Hermiston for the construction of the ir
rigation system now being built near that
point. .
Commission Investigates Work.
The Oregon Railroad Commission will

Catarrh i3 not merely a disease of tlie mucous membranes and inner
linings of the body as some of the symptoms "would seem to indicate ; it is a
deep-seated blood disease, in "which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Like all other blood diseases, Catarrh
comes from poisons and injpurities accumulating; in the circulation which
irritate and inflame the tissues and mucous surfaces, and then the unpleas
ant symptoms of the disease are manifested. There is a ringing noise in the
ears, a thin, watery discharge from the nostrils, filthy matter drops back into
the throat, the breath has an offensive odor, and many other annoying and
unpleasant symptoms are characteristic of the trouble- Sprays, washes,
inhalations, etc., cannot reach the blood, and are therefore valuable only for
the temporary relief they afford. To cure Catarrh the blood must be purified.
Nothing equals S. S. S. for this purpose ; it goes down into the circulation,
removes the catarrhal matter, purifies the blood and makes a lasting cure.
When S. S. S. has removed the cause, the blood being pure and healthy
nourishes the membranes and tissues instead of irritating them with noxious
matter, and the symptoms all pass away. Book on Catarrh and any med
ical advice free. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.

YOUNG MAN HAS ,
NEW THEORY
Human Life Seems Centered in Stomach.
All Else Is Secondary.
' The immense success w"hich has fol- !
lowed L. T. Cooper during the past
year with his new preparation has ex
ceeded anything of the kind ever be
fore witnessed In most of the leading,
cities where the young man has intro
duced the medicine. Cooper has a
novel theory. He believes that the hu
man stomach Is directly responsible
for most diseases. To quote his own
words from an Interview upon his ar
rival in an Eastern city: "The average
man or woman cannot be sick if the
stomach Is working properly. To be
sure, there are diseases of a virulent
nature, such -as cancer, tuberculosis,
diabetes, etc.. which are organic, and
are not traceable to the stomach, but
even fevers can. In nine cases out of
ten, be traced to something taken Into
the stomach. All of this half-sick,
nervous exhaustion that is now so
common, is caused by the stomachic
conditions, and it is because my rem
edy will and does regulate the stom
ach that I am meeting with such suc
cess. "To sum the matter up a sound di
Sound-Healthy-Vigorous

No Loss of Ambition But With
Plenty of Life and Energy and
the Vigor of Youth.
To be strong and manly is the aim of every
strong man, and yet how many we find who
are wasting the vitality and strength which
nature gives them. Instead of developing
into the strong, vigorous, manly young fol
lows that nature intended them to be, they
find, themselves weak, stunted and despondent
no amhitlon to do anything. They struggle
aimlessly along, sooner or later to become
victims of that dread disease, nervous debil
ity; their finer sensibilities blunted and their
nerves shattered.

and ha ve betn interested in noting the marked
general improvement that follows a thorough cure of the chief dis
order. My success in curing difficult cases of long standing has made
me the foremost specialist treating men's diseases. This success is due

serious results that may follow neglect. I offer free consultation and

Mr. A. C. Brock, chef of the Brock
Restaurant. Market Iistrict, Boston,
Mass.. who is a staunch believer in Mr.
Cooper's theory and medicine, has this
to sav: "I had chronic indigestion for
over three years. I suffered terribly,
and lost about thirty pounds. , I was a
physical wreck when I started this
Cooper medicine, a month or so ago.
Today I am as well as I ever was in
my life. I am no longer nervous, my
food does not distress me in the least,
and I have a splendid appetite. I am
gaining flesh very rapidly In fact, at
the rate of a pound a day. I would
not believe any medicine on earth
could have done for me what this has
done. It is a remarkable preparation
and Mr. Cooper deserves all his suc
cess." We recommend Cooper prepara
tions as being remarkable medicines.

vVEAKXKSS.
You've probably been treated for
so-called weakness and helped tem
porarily or not at ail, and the rea
son is very apparent when cause of
loss of power in men is understood.
Weakness is mel-cly a symptom of
chronic inflammation of the pros
tate glaml, which my treatment
removes, therchy permanently re
storing strength and vigor.
CONTRACTED DISORDERS.
You can depend upon a quick and
thorough cure by my treatment. A
quick cure is desirable because a
slow cure is apt to be no (-tire at
all. and a chronic development will
come la-ter. I cure you beyond the
possibility of a relapse and in half
the usual time required.
REKLEX AILMENTS.
Often the condition appearing to be
the chl:f disorder is only a reflex
ailment resulting from some other
disease. Weakness sometimes comes
from varicocele or stricture; skin
and bone diseases result from
blood poison taint, and physical
land mental decline follow long
standing functional disorder. My
long experience in treating men
enables me to determine the exact
conditions that exist nnd to treat
accordingly, thus removing every
damaging cause and its effects.
