Steam Schooner Washington
Fouls Draw and Delays
Traffic fer an Hour.
PASSAGE NOT WIDE OPEN
Craft in C'liarpe of Pilot Emkcri and
in Trying to Back Throuch, the
Main Iticsinir Catches on the
Draw Waterfront - "otes.
The steam schooner Washington, while
shifting from the Oak-street dock to
Couch Blreet. yesterday afternoon, fouled
the draw of the Burnside-street bridsre
and caused some damage to herseif and
to the bridge. Traffic was held for more
than an hour and the steamer will be
compelled to undergo slight repairs before
she will be able to proceed to San Fran
cisco. The steamer was in charge of Pilot
Harry Emken. The draw was not opened
to the full width on account of a pila
drlvcr employed in setting the piling for
the new drawrest. As the Washington
was backing down she caught the cur
rent and her main rigging on the port
side fouled the draw. The bow of the
vessel swung around to the eastward
and as the current caught -he steamer
phe drifted onto the draw pier with her
foremast on the east side of the pier and
the mainmast on the west side. The
steamers Wenona, Waunda and M. F.
Henderson went to the assistance of the
Washington and pulled her out.
Repairs are being made to the draw
pier and there is nothing to act as a
fender for a steamship passing through.
J lad the man on the pile-driver scow
slacked off his lines and permitted the
draw to swing wide open there would
have been no accident.
The Washington struck the draw of the
bridge with great force, causing it to
rock bark and forth. Engineer Stutsman
was In the englneroom above the draw,
nd he said lie thought the draw would
be pushed into the river. Two steamers
were required to pull the Washington out
from under the bridge. About J150 dam
age was done to the bridge. The in
cident caused much excitement and
Mteetcar traffic was suspended for some
time. '

which the vessel carried amidships.
Captain Rae discovered several bottles
of wine In the forecastle, which none

cargo but they are to be brought be

Factors at Chicago Corn
Also Slumps.
CHICAGO. March 2S. Pit traders in the
wheat market - were bearish' inclined
throughout the entire session today, owing
to reports emanating from the Southwest
which claimed that the Fall-sown crop was
in good condition, but offerings from this
source were not sufficient to cause any de
cline until augmented during the final hour
by heavy sales by several leading commission-houses.
This combined selling pressure
caused a sharp decline' from which the mar
ket failed to rally. May opened unchanged
to He higher at ftr.s 9jic, advanced to
95c and then declined to IHc. The close
was weak at P4-3bC
Corn was strong during the greater part of
the session, but weakened later in the day
on heavy realizing sales. The slump in
wheat was partly responsible for the later
decline. May closed weak at tic.
Oats were weak all day. May closed at
64c.
Provisions were quite firm early in the
day because of a l(K9 ISc advance In live
hogs, the market closing steady. At the

O. P. Graham Tells of His Trouble
With "Umbrella Jimmy."
In explanation of the eviction of
James -Sheridan ("Umbrella Jimmy")
from the houseboat In which he and his
wife have made their home for the past
eight years, O. P. Graham, the owner ot
the ground where 'Jimmy's" craft came
ashore during a freshet years ago, and
where it had remained ever since, told
his side of the eviction proceedings yes
terday. Mr. Graham Bald that when the
enlargement of his business made it
necessary to use the ground which his
squatter tenant had pre-empted, he told
the old fellow he must move away and
was met with a storm of abusive lan
guage and obscenity which made it
necessary for the boatyard owner to
cause the man's arrest. "Jimmy" was
sent to the Butte by Judge Cameron for
15 days, but, on his release, said Mr.
Graham, he again became abusive, and
complaints were frequently made by per
sons who passed that way.
"I offered to provide a room in the
neighborhood for the old fellow and his
wife." said Mr. Graham, "but he refused
to move away from the property, so I
was compelled to have him sent away by
process of law, both because I need the
ground in my business and because his
offensive language made him a nuisance
in the neighborhood. I feel that I did
everything possible to make things right
with these people and desire to put my
self in the correct light before the people
of Portland, some of whom may have
received the impression that I acted in a
hard-hearted manner.' (

"WEAKNESS"
To produce temporary activ
ity of the functions in cases of
so-called weakness is a simple
matter, but to permanently re
store strength and vigor Is a
problem that but few physi
cians have solved. I never
treat for temporary effects.
Under my system of treatment,
every bit of improvement is a
part of a permanent cure.
Though other physicians have,
through my success in effect
ing permanent cures, been con
vinced of the fart that pre
matureness, loss of power, etc.,
are but symptoms reuniting
from chronic inflammation or
congestion in the prostate
gland, none have as yet been

elation has been so carefully managed

are on their way to examine a coal mine
on the Cowlitz River with a view to
contracting for its output for the asso

Catarrh is not merely a disease of the mucous membrane3 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 impurities 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 thi3 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. IHE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.'

CONTRACTED DISORDERS
Of all the diseases peculiar to mn, contracted dis
orders are most abused by cut-and-try-li It-and-mlss
treatment, administered by good friends,
druggists, doctors in general practice, and most of
the would-be specialists. It Is certainly interest
ing to hear the story of the average patient telling
his experience with the different kinds of so
called treatments he has been "up agaHist." A
large majority of our patients come to us with
all the original diseases and part or all of the com
plications resulting from delay and mistreatment.
We generally have to cure them after some or all
of the following conditions have developed;
chronic discharge, stricture or all of the
chronic bladder troubles , diseased prostate,
sores, swellings, etc., besides a patient whose con
fidence and mind are also diseased through failure
and disappointment. Don't trifle with these dis
orders; go to a doctor who knows how to cure
