WAR DECLARED BT
CAPTAIN
SPENCER
Rate to The Dalles to Be Cut
May 1 1 Steamer Spencer
Takes the Initiative.
ALTERNATE TO ASTORIA
Vessel Will Make Three Trips to The
Dalles and Three Down River
Each Week Gatzert Will Cut.
News of the Waterfront,
Captain E. W. Spencer, owner of the
steamer Chas. R. Spencer, has an
nounced a Summer schedule for his
boat, and also a cut in rates which
promises to make a lively Summer in
steamboat circles. Captain Spencer
said yesterday: "Beginning Monday,
May 11 the steamer Chas. R. Spencer
will make the round trip from Port
land to Astoria on Monday, Wednesday
and Friday. On Tuesday, Thursday
and Saturday she will make a round
trip to The Dalles. Sunday excursions
will alternate between the two places.
I have decided to make the rate $1
from Portland to either The Dalles or
Astoria."
The statement of Captain Spencer
marks the opening of one of the fierc
est rate wars that has been known In
the history of steamboating on the
Willamette and Columbia Rivers. When
questioned in regard to the reductions.
General Manager Talbot said: "For
the past two months, we have been con
sidering the matter of placing the
steamer Bailey Gatzert on the run be
tween Portland and Astoria. The ques
tion Is being considered, and I cannot
at this time say whether the boat will
go on the lower run or not. However,
I will say that any cut In rates will be
promptly met by my company."
The fare from Portland to Tbe
Dalles is 11.60, and round-trip tickets
have been sold for $2.60. The reduced
rate will not Include round-trip tickets,
and will mean a saving to the passen
ger of !0 cents on either single fare or
both ways. Captain Spencer says that
he will make a greater cut If neces
sary. Last season the steamer Telegraph
operated as an excursion boat (day
light run), between Portland and As
toria. She made a profitable season,
and was later sent to Puget Sound to
be run as an excursion boat during the
Alaska-Yukon Exposition. There has
been considerable rivalry between the
steamer Spencer and boats of the Reg
ulator line during the past three years,
but the enmity has not been reduced
to a rate war until now. Next Mon
day will mark the beginning, and the
end it not in sight.
On the Portland-Astoria run. Cap
tain Spencer will have only the Hassalo
and the Lurline as competitors, and
the rail line of the Astoria & Columbia
River Railway Company. At present,
the Hassalo Is undergoing repairs, and
the Lurline is on the ways. The lower
river business Is being handled by the
T. J. Potter and the Undine.
SHEILA CLEARS FOR JAPAX
fctcamshlp Takes 80.000 Barrels of
Flour From Portland.
The British steamship Sheila, Cap
tain Ogllbee, cleared yesterday with
30.000 barrels of flour for Japanese
ports, and will leave down this morn
ing at daylight. The Sheila will com
plete her cargo at Seattle. The Sheila
is the tirst flour craft to get away
during may. She was loaded by the
Portland Flouring Mills and the cargo,
placed on board at Portland, amounted
to $10.i,000 In value.
Flour exports have been slow for
several months and the last regular
liner out of Portland carried less than
20.000 barrels. Outward space on the
Nicomedla has been engaged by interior
millers, but none by the local firm. The
Portland Flouring Mills Company will
probably load a number of outside
vessels during the season.

MAKES NEW SMOKING RULE
Users of "Weed" Must Ride on the
Back Platform.
Another rule to regulate smokers who
ride on streetcars will be Issued tomor
row and will go Into effect at once.
Thereafter no person will be permitted to
smoke while riding on the front platform.
This rule Is made on account of the re
cent order to stop cars on the "near"
sides of cross streets, and permitting pas
sengers to get on and off the front plat
form if they desire to do so. Officers of
the company -explain that by keeping
smokers on the rear platform women and
others who object to tobacco smoke will
have less cause for complaint, for the
reason they will use the forward part of
the cars almost entirely and will have no
reason to Invade the part of cars re
served for smokers.
Open cars will have the two rear seat
reserved for smokers as heretofore and
no smoking on the cars of the O. W. P,
and Portland; Heights lines will be per
mitted. In the case of the O. W. P. line.
this rule is made on account of the accl
dent on the East Side some weeks ago
when several young men who were ridd
ing on the platform smoking were in
jured and might not have been hurt if
they had been inside the car. On the
Heights cars the grades are so steep that
passengers on the platforms are in dan
ger and the rule is made to give them
better protection and to give motormen
plenty of room to attend to their work.

from her husband until December 15.
1907, when her mother, Mrs. E. P. Holt,
received a letter from Everett, Wash.,
saying Wieland had been kill ed In Alaska.
The letter was signed by "John Worthy,"
and the writer said that lie had burled
Wieland. He gave the address 2420
Chestnut street. A reply was sent by
Mrs. Holt, to which she in, turn received
an answer, this time from "Worthy" at
1013 Pacific avenue, Tacoina. Mrs. Wie

and found that both lettei-s were written
by her husband himself, in an effort to

been out of work, and was directed to
raise $20 and make a payment by May 20.

under consideration again. William Mil
ler also has fallen, behind in his pay

Plan for Excursion to Seaside
Proposed.

Tillamook Head Offers Vantage
Ground From Which to See Great
Armada Pass in Stately Pro
cession to the North. .
Once upon a time there occurred an
Incident, long chronicled in the lore of the
East, that a certain Mohamet, a prophet,
desiring closer Juxtaposition to a certain
mountain, strove to have the mountain
approach into -his Immediate vicinity, but
this falling was compelled to betake him
self unto the mountain.
After moving heaven and earth and the
Navy Xlepartment In an effort to bring
the Atlantic fleet to Portland, all to no
purpose, a well-defined movement has
been launched to .take Portland to the
fleet, or so great a portion of Portland
as Is willing and able to pay a reduced
railroad fare to Seaside in order that the
big battleships may be seen to brush by.
Dan'Moore is the father of a plan which
is endorsed by the local commercial bod
ies, to run excursions from here to Sea
side for the splendid spectacle that will
be afforded by the progress of the fleet
on its way to Puget Sound. Arrangements
have already been closed with the North
ern Pacific officials to make a greatly re
duced round-trip rate and to run at least
two excursion trains. One of these trains
will go to Seaside on the evening pre
ceding the day on which the armada will
pass. This train Is intended especially
for those having cottages at Seaside, or
who may desire to make a rather more
extended outing of the affair. The other
train will leave the Union Station on -the
morning of the eventful day, returning
the same evening, thus giving an oppor
tunity for the excursionists to take
lunches and make a picnic of the affair.
Both trains will run direct, without stop,
to Seaside, and both will return In the
evening after the spectacle is over.
The people of Seaside guarantee that an
easy trail will be opened to the summit
of Tillamook Head, which rises 1,100 feet
above the sea and affords a view un
equalled by any on the Ooast. Those who
do not desire to make the climb will be
able to obtain an excellent view from the
pier and the boardwalk. Negotiations are
In progress with Senator Fulton, by which

An unbroken rcord of cures during all these yara Is
positive proof of the value of my Direct Method
Treatment, For 29 years I have specialized in treat
ins the diseases of men only.
A great many people do not seem to understand
the difference between the regular practitioner and
the medical expert who has devoted his life study
to say, three or four complicated diseases. They
seem to be under the impression that any physician
cures any disease with equal success. It is an
everyday experience to have a patient say: "I have
tried nearly every remedy sold by druggists for my
trouble." and the invariable verdict Is "No benefit."
Another will say: "I have been treated by several
family physicians in my neighborhood who thought
they could cure me, but the results proved otherwise
More Men
There are scores and hundreds of afflicted men who believe their cases Incurable
because treatment of the pant has resulted in failure, and who through this
belief are being deprived of the full and complete health that might be theirs.
I do not claim that there are no Incurable cases, but I do claim that many
ewes absolutely Incurable by such treatment as has been given them will
yield promptly to the correct and scientific methods that I exclusively employ.
I offer free consultation and will accept for treatment no case unless I am
conAdent of my ability to effect a complete cure. This is meant emphatically.

My Successful Treatment for Weakness
Dosing the system with powerful stimulants and tonics In an effort to restore
functional vigor can have but one final result: The condition is rendered worse
than before. "Weakness" Is merely an indication of a low form of Inflammation
In the prostate gland, and the inflammation Is but aggravated by stimulating
remedies that excite temporary activity. I employ the only scientific and
fully effective treatment for "weakness" which effects a permanent cure by
restoring the prostate giand to a sound and healthy state. I obtain complete
results in every case I treat.
Varicocele, Its Complete Cure Without Surgery
Under my treatment most cases of varicocele are cured without any operation
There is no cutting, no pain, and it Is seldom necessary that the patient be
detained from his occupation. Normal circulation is at once restored through
out all the organs, and the natural processes of waste and repair are again estab
lished. If you are afflicted with Varicocele, consult me at once. Delay can but
bring on aggravated conditions and nervous complications that will Impair the
vital functions and Involve the general health.
