French Bark Chartered . to
Carry General Cargo to
Load at Leith.
IN TO BALFOUR-GUTHRIE
Crop Reports From the Interior Will
Affect the Charters for Both Old
and New Crop French Bark
Bene on the Portland Iilst.
Balfour, Guthrie & Co. have chartered
the French bark Rochambeau to load
general carp, at Leith for the Columbia
River. The vessel is now on the other
Bide and will be placed on berth immed
iately. She will be due in Portland in
October and will take outward grain from
the Northwest.
The charter of the Rochambeau brings
the total tonnage enroute for the river
to weU past the 55.000-ton mark. Only a
small part of this is for old crop load
ing and with recent reports from the In
terior regarding the wheat situation, it
is probable that charters for all the re
maining crop, as well as a considerable
number for new crop, will be reported
within the next two weens.
The French bark Reno, now enroute
from Shields to San Francisco, has been
placed on the list of vessels which have
been chartered out with wheat from the
Northwest. The Rene has the option of
Puget Sound, but will probably not take
advantage of that clause. Glrvin & Eyre
hold the charter on the Rene.
Kerr, Glfford & Co .will load the Ital
ian bark Emanuele Accme, which will
arrive Wednesday. She will take a full
cargo of grain for the United Kingdom.
The Rene was takAi for less than union
rates. (

preceded the fleet to all ports on the

officials will be on-duty at each landing
stage in order t6 see that the regula
tions are adhered to.
Statements have been compiled by the Portland National Banks that show the local institutions to be in splendid condition- Reserves are large, in
some cases as high as 61 per cent of the total deposits. As the law requires a reserve of only 25 per cent, this is a splendid showing.
At the last call of the Controller for a statement of the condition of the National Banks of the country, deposits in the three local National Banks
aggregated $22,042,505.70. The total on May 14 was 121.388.421.28. The falling off Is accounted for by the fact that depositors have been drawing against
their balances to some extent during the past few months, while the new policy of the First National in refusing to pay interest on any deposits what
ever has lost 1,642,037.16. The Merchants National Bank has gained $19.4,84 7.83 In deposits. Through an error the table printed yesterday stated that
the deposits had decreased instead of Increased. The correct table is run below. Little new business Is coming In at present, but confidence Is expressed
In the big reserves held by the'Portland banks and the most satisfactory condition shown by the latest statement.
The condition of the three National Banks of Portland, according to the sworn statement of the heads of the institutions, follows; ,

SOME ancient Bage whose name I
have forgotten remarks that all

This is also true of the third and

Symphony Orchestra, which took place
last night at the Heilig theater, under
the direction of Charles Dierke, the as
sisting sololstsbelng Madame Mar

Alexander, tenor. It would he dif
ficult to bring together once more such
a trinity of talent, and that's what the
big audience undoubtedly thought, for
encores were numerous and satisfac
tion general. Mr. Dierke is gaining in
poise and authority with every con
cert, and his reading is pleasing the
most critical. He has made good.
There was quite a wait before Mr. Alex
ander appeared. The piano hod to be
shifted Just so, and still the audience sat
expectant. Then ifi the hero came. Talk
about the warmth of a reception to a
returned traveler on his native heath! Mr.
Alexander had to bow and bow again to
rounds of applause before the audience
would allow him to sing but it was worth
the waiting to listen to that clear, pas
sionate, prlmo-tenor voice in Seigmund's
love song from Wagner's "Die Walkure."
with orchestral accompaniment. Mr. Al
exander's voice has grown in volumne and
clarity, but the Heilig is too large for it,
as yet. He also san far too modestly,
and seemed to be afraid to lose himself
in the passion of his song.' The artistic
finish with which ha Invested everything
he sang was a Joy to hear. Has he an
artistic future? Most undoubtedly. He's
only a "kid' yet, but his voice is grow
ing, and we'll hear of him right along in
the larger world of music. The two num
bers where he sang and played his own
piano accompaniments were highly suc
cessful, his two encores being "Questa o
Quella." from "Rlgoletto" (Verdi), and a
serenade by Leoncavallo. Mr. Alexander
will give a concert at the end of next
month, here, before his return to London.
Madame Marquardt, harpist, won suc
cess in a new field and she and her $2000
American harp made, a big hit. She is
quite an artist and her brilliancy of play
Is delightful to hear. Her mastery of
such a difflcult-to-play instrument as the

The cessation of the rainy period, which
now "seems to be at an end, has en
abled the builders of the civic "Arch of
"Welcome" to begin work of putting: on
the staff construction, and while not much
progress has been made, the contractors
expect to have the arch completed before
the - opening day of the Rose Festival.

completed and it will take nearly a week
to attach the staff work. If the structure

that the staff material can dry. Should
there be any more rainy weather, it will
be highly problematical whether the arch
will be available for use in any of the
formal, ceremonies attendant upon the
opening; of the week's demonstration.
There Isn't the least doubt but that the
various street parades of .the festival
week will surpass anything: ever ' at-
Atemptedin the Northwest. The 150 en
tries for the water carnival will make
that feature the greatest marine display
ever witnessed in local waters; the 300
entries In the decorative and competitive
automobile parade will place that far
above any motor car tournament ever
proposed in this part of the country, and
with additional entries comlne in every
day in both these papeants, Portland is
assured of the most impressive and mag
nificent demonstrations the Northwest
has ever known.
Entries for the horse and carriage pa
rade have been sent in from Oregon City,
Salem, Bridal Veil, The Dalles. Hood
