FIRST SAILING APRIL 3 Intention Is to Maintain a Ten-Day Schedule Between California Port and Coos Bay Open Travel Between the Ports. Beginning: April 3, the steamship Eureka will be placed on the run be tween Portland, Coos Bay and Eureka. The first sailing- will be from Port land, and it Is the intention to main tain a ton-day schedule. The Eureka is now undergoing an overhauling at San Francisco. The announcement of the new Hteamship service out of Portland was made last night by C. P. Doe, general manager of the Norh Pacific Steam ship Company, owner of the Eureka. At the time the North Pacific Com pany purchased the steamship F. A. Kilburn from the Merchants Inde pendent Company of Los Angeles, it was stated in The Oregon ian that it was probable that the steamer would shortly go on the run between Port land, Coos Bay and Eureka. The plan as set forth at that time has materi alized with the substitution of the Eureka for the Kliburn. The Coos Bay business is being han dled at the present time by the steam ships Breakwater and Alliance from Portland and the M. F. Plant from San Fra ncisco. Between Coos Bay ports and Eureka there is no communication, and the placing of a steamer on that run will be a feature which will be greatly appreciated by the traveling public. The Eureka Is a craft of 312 net tons register and has been operating between Ban Francisco and Eureka, She is ownpd by the North Pacific Steamship Company, which now oper ates the Roanoke and Geo. W. Elder between Portland, Eureka, San Fran cisco and San Pedro. The recent pur chase tof the F. A. Kilburn gave the company a vessel to go on in place of the Eureka. The Kilburn is 458 net tons register and is fast. She is bet ter adapted to the needs of the San Francisco run than is the Eureka. 1IENRIETTK FIXED FOR GRAIX rf r in a ii Ship Will Loa d New C r op Wheat at Portland. The German ship Henriette, 1fi98 tons, has been chartered for new crop load ing at 2TTs 6d. The vessel was taken for December loading. At the present time she is in the harbor at Newcastle, N. S. W. It is probable that she will, take coal from there to the West Coast and come from there in ballast. The Henriette is the third craft to go on the board for new crop loading dur in the past two days. The fixing of grain vessels is beginning earlier than usual and the sailing ship-owners are ex periencing no trouble in securing the association rate of 27s 6d. Ch I nese From Ship Conipan y .

FIGHT FAKER IS CAUGHT Weill Captured in Chicago tor Prof itable Swindle, CHICAGO., March 24. Joseph R. Weill, said to be the leading spirit tn the "Denver millionaires club," came to grief in Chicago yesterday. He was arrested by Sheriff Kdward Klttleson, of Rock Isl&nd, 111., and taken to Rock Island to stand trial for being one of a gang of confidence men. It Is said an effort will be made to connect him and his gang with the plot to blow up the Rock Island News office with dyna mite yesterday, Edward Goodman, of Chicago, charged that Weill and his "Denver million aires club" fleeced him out of $2000 on a Mfake" prizefight. Weill is one of the smoothest con men we ever arrested," said Detective Tobin, who assisted in making the ar rest. "Snerlff Kittleson told us he and his gang had fleeced Rock Island men out of at least $50,000 in the last year. The game worked on Mr. Goodman and all the rest, for that matter, was to arrange a toet on a prizefight. They told Goodman they were a lot of Den ver sports traveling through the coun try in a special car and that they had a 'worldbeater named Gorman who could whip any man in town. Up comes one Kauffman, who challenges Gorman to a fight. The promoters told Good man what easy money it was and in duced him to put up $2000 on Gorman. The money was placed in a safety de posit box $4000 in all. After the fight the winner of the bet was to get the key to the box. t 'The ropes for a genuine prizefight were strung and the men mixed. At the opening of the second round Gor man collapsed under a blow in the stomach. His seconds declared lie was about to die and everybody fled. "At a safe distance Weill said to Goodman: 'Give me the key to the box and fly your kite out of town; that fellow may die and we all will be pinched. I will send you a check for your money tomorrow. "Goodman gave him the key, but never got the check. The same game was worked on a Seattle man for $5700." Another Postal Clerk for Portland. OREGON! A.N NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, March 24.
