HEAVY EXPORTS OF
WHEAT FDR MARCH
Shipments for 'the First Nine
Days Exceed 500,000
Bushels.
NEW RECORD FOR PERIOD
Five Voxels Have Cleared lor Eu

French Flag Marine Notes.
The French bark Amiral de Cornulier.
Captain Touchot. cleared yesterday after
noon with 112.050 buphels of wheat, valued
at $tor.w), for Queenstown or Falmouth
for orders. Th- vess1 is the fifth craft
to clear foreign with prain for the month,
and the total nhipments amount to 542.578
bushels. The valuation has been placed
at tVK.O-i. and with the exception of the
J'Nrre loti all craft have cleared for
orders. The Pierre lxti will discharge at
I,imerirR.
Strange as it may appear, every vessel
to get away durlns; the first nine days of
the month nan been a bark, and each
mailed under the French flag. The Emilie
Cat line haa the distinction of clearing
for tlie United Kingdom with two cargoes
within a period of 11 months.
During the first nine days of March a
year- ago not a bushel of wheat or a
pound oT flour was sent outward from
Portland. The first clearance for the
month was on the 11th. when the Japan
ese suamshlp Manshu Maru got away
with wheat and flour for the ' Orient.
The Numantia followed several days later
with a carso of flour. The first sailing
vessel to clear was the French bark Asie,
which sot away on the 26th of the month.
The total number of sailing vessels for
March. 1907. was two. and the steamships
numbered five. 'The total wheat exports
for the month were nearly 40.000 bushels
less than for the first nine days of the
present month.
At present there are 41,484 tons (net) in
the harbor, and a large percentage of this
will be dispatched, before the first- of
April. Kxports of grain will exceed
2.MV,000 bushels, and like February, March,
IVX, will set a mark for foreign exports
from the Columbia.
STEERAGE RATES ARE CCT
Third-Class Fare to San Francisco
, Reduced to $5.
Steerage passenger rates to San
Francisco on steamers of the San Fran
cisco & Portland . Steamship Company
have been reduced to J5. Beginning
with the sailing of the steamship Rose
City next Friday afternoon the rates
will stand a follows: Cabin, $15; sec
ond class. $10; steerage, $a. Hereto
fore the boats of the old line have not
carried second-class passengers, and
the rates have been the same for cabin
passengers and $10 for the steerage.
The change was Inaugurated with a
vit'W of gathering Jn the second-class
hup in ess now being handled by the
Ptcani schooners operating out of the
Columbia River. The lumber carriers
have been taking passengers for con
siderably less than the rate charged
by the regular passenger boats. The
vessels of the North Pacific Steamship
Company, the Roanoke and Elder, have
always maintained an intermediate
rate and the schedule to Saji Francisco
is as follows: Cabin, $15; second class,
$12: steerage. $10.
A large number of the steam schoon
ers are tied up at the present time on
Hi-count of the strike of the marine en
gineers. Passengers seeking cheap
rate to California ports have taxed
the capai ity of the craft in operation
and the management of the Harriman
line decided to make a sweeping cut
in the third-class rate, with a view of
obtaining the business.
Regular line steamers operating be
tween Portland and points in California
have been carrying a less number of
passengers than the steam schooners.
The regular boats operate on a fixed
schedule and the schooners run at
large and sail at any time that meets
with the cargo situation. Passengers
rnunt make arrangements accordingly,
but the saving of a few dollars has
been the principal factor In filling
them up.

River, was In Portland yesterday. Cap
tain M tl ler desires to correct the im
pression that the loss of the vessel
was due to Pilot In man. Captain
Miller said that he was at the wheel
at the time and the accident was due
to the fact that the boat was too
hnavily loaded. The damage was not
serious and the boat will be again in
commission by the first of the month.

SUIT LOST BY PORT
Blame Fixed for Columbia
Manzanita Collision.
DAMAGES SET AT $12,670
Judge Wolverton Hands Down De
cision in Favor of Government
and Case Will Probably Go
to the Supreme Court.
By a decision of Judge Wolverton in
the United States Court yesterday, the
Government was awarded $12,670.90
damages against the port of Portland
as the result of a collision between
the dredge Columbia and the United
States lighthouse' tender Manzanita
near Westport on the night of October
6. 1905. Responsibility for the colli
sion was fixed on the crew of the Co
lumbia, owned by the Port of Portland.
The case, in all probability, will be ap
pealed to the United States Supreme
Court.
At the time of the accident the
Manzanita was en route to ' Astoria,
headed down stream, while the Colum
bia, in charge of a tug and a towboat,
was being piloted up stream. The col
lision occurred about 7 P. M. After dis
cussing at considerable length the
probable position of the two boats at
the time of tne collision and reviewing
the testimony of a number of the most
important witnesses, in which the court
admitted there was much conflicting
evidence, the decision passes on the re
sponsibility for the accident In the fol
lowing terms:
It is manifest that the fault of the tug and
tow in attempting to navigate the river in
the night time, without running lights and
without constant lookoutm upon the tow.
with the cutter of the tow extending 30 feet
in front of her. lowered beneath the surface
of the water, and In utterly falling to rec
ognize or reply In some way to the signal
of the Mansanita so as to apprise her of their
action and intentions, was very gross: and
the burden being imposed upon the respondent
to ehow that the Manzanita was aleo a con
tributing factor to the casualty in order to
an apportionment of damages. It is required
to make out such a state of the case by clear
and convincing proof. I cannot say that the
respondent has done this, and therefore I
conclude that it should be required to bear
the entire burden of damages arising from
the collision.
The Government did not receive
judgment for all of the expense Items
that were enumerated In Its bill of
complaint. The claims of the men on
the Manzanita for salary during the
months of October, November and De
cember, together with all items cov
ering the subsistence of the crew for
those months was disallowed.
Among the amounts inctuded in the
award of damages were the following!
Repairing the Manzanita's hull, $1327;
labor in cleaning and overhauling the
damaged boat. $1653.60: loss of cloth
ing and personal effects of the men,
$1635.55. By the decision the Govern
ment is entitled to recover Interest at
the rate of 6 per cent rom the date of
the accident, October 6, 1905.
FRAUD IX IRRIGATION COXCERX
Court Rules for State Against Three
Sisters Company.
Declaring that fraud and deception
had been practiced by the officers of
the company. Judge Wolverton, in the
United States Circuit Court, yesterday
overruled the demurrer to the com
plaint in the suit of the State of Ore
gon against the Three Sisters Irriga
tion Company et a!., for the cancella
tion of a contract for the reclamation
of about 27,000 acres in Crook County.
The court also sustained the applica
tion of the state for the appointment of
a receiver for the company. The offi
cer probably will be appointed In court
today. (
Several months ago the state filed a
suit against the irrigation company to
cancel a contract for the reclamation
of a tract of about 27,000 acres in
Crook County. The contract was writ
ten in 19u2 and the state alleged that
the terms of the agreement had not
been lived up to by the contracting
company. The defendant company filed
a demurrer to this complaint.
In dismissing the demurrer. Judge
Wolverton held that through misrepre
sentation. W. A. Laidlaw, secretary, and
L D. Weist. civil engineer and sur
veyor for the company, secured the
contract from the State Land Board,
which was afterwards induced to se
cure from the Government patent to
about 11.000 acres for the company.
The court decided that the company
falled to reclaim more than 2000 acres,
while the maximum flow of water
available for reclaiming the tract never
exceeded 1S5 cubic feet, although the
company represented that the flow
amounted to 2746 cubic feet. In its
demurrer the defendant company main
tained that the state did not have the
right to cancel the contract On this
point the court said:
By a fraud which is adequately alleged that
state has been induced to acquire patent to a
large tract of land, the greater portion of
which the defendant cannot reclaim. This
land it holds in trust for the general Govern
ment and the Individual setllera and It has
such an Interest therein that it ought to be
permitted to dleincumber Itself of the fraudu
lent contract and to enter into Another. If
need be. to redeem its obligations to these
beneficiaries.
HOMESTEAD LISTED AS ASSET
Exempt Only as Family Home Under
Bankruptcy Law.
Residence on a homestead by a family,
consisting of two or more persons, is
required if the premises are to be ex
empted as an asset under the bankruptcy
laws. This was the decision of Judge
Wolverton in the United States Court In
the case of Henry C. Gardner, a bank
rupt, who contended that his homestead
at Drain could not be included as an
asset in liquidating his debts under the
bankruptcy law.
Judge Wolverton held that since only
the bankrupt himself had resided on the
homestead, he cannot declare it exempt
from the bankrupt taws. "Although such
premises may still constitute his dwell
ing place or place of abode." said the
court, "yet he cannot claim them exempt
for the reason that he alone does not
constitlte a family."
R. A. Marshall Bankrupt.
R. A. Marshall, a cement contractor of
this city, yesterday filed a petition in
voluntary bankruptcy in the United States
Court. He reports liabilities amounting
to 13b.6S4.S5. including unsecured claims
aggregating $19,931.95. His assets ag
gregate $53,279.16, the largest Item of which
is unliquidated claims amounting to
$.550..

Wilson's Proteges Convicted.
Rev. Clarence True Wilson. D. D., pas
tor of the Centenary M. E. Church, con
fessed In the Municipal Court yesterday
that he had been somewhat at fault In
his judgment of human nature when he
selected two modest young convicts from
the county rockpile, several weeks ago
and set about effecting their reformation.
Dr. Wilson advanced the theory that with
pleasant and useful labor to perform the
youths would become regenerated and
give no further thought to the subject of
wrongdoing. - Both were known as hard
ened, thieves and the authorities had
doubts but showed a willingness to let
the pastor try his skill. Dr. Wilson's
mission , in court yesterday forenoon was
not to plead in behalf of his erstwhile
wards, but to seek their conviction for
stealing the tools he supplied them with.
In this he was successful, Robert Fitz
simmons. aged 22, being sent back to the
rockpile for 12 months and C. F. Knause.
aged 23. getting a term of ten months at
rockbreaking. And all because they ex
ploded the pastor's reformation theories

more than I perform. To them I have ac
tually illustrated in the cure of tlleir own
rases the truth of what I claim, namely,
(.hat niv treatment is as certain to cure as
it is that my patient engages my services
and follows my directions. My success is
dui not alone to education, experience,
skill and scientific equipment, but to the
fact that I limit my study and practice
strictly to diseases and weaknesses of
men. To male maladies alone I have
earnestly and exclusively devoted 25 years
of my life, and on them all my faculties
are concentrated.
STRICTURE My treatment is absolute
ly painless, and perfect results can be de
pended upon in every Instance. I do no
cutting or dilating whatever.
