MUiiilU' HIE TO BANDQN : t. - j- mri mr - THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, MONDAY, JUNE 2D, 1905. New Freight Schedule Gives Local Merchants Access to Territory. MAY RECOVER BUSINESS Freight Kates to Points on Coquille Hiver Will Be Reduced to $4 a Ton Alliance and AVilhel mlna Will Work Together. Traffic arrangements have been per fected between the Gray & Holt Steam ship Company and the North Bend Navi gation Company whereby a rate of H ier ton on shipments from Portland to Bandon, Prosper and Riverton will be made. This arrangement will give Port land merchants an opportunity to re rover a large part of the trade of that district which was lost to San Francisco .several years ago. The new twin screw gasoline schooner Wllhelmlna will bo launched from the ways at Kruse & Banks shipyards In North Bend next Friday. She will be ready for s?rvlce by the middle of the month and will be placed in service im mediately between North Bend and points on the Cortullle River. The vessel is equipped with two powerful gasoline en gines and is guaranteed for a speed of 12 knots an hour. She is owned by the North Bend Navigation Company and will be operated in connection with the steamship Alliance. All freight for Bandon, Prosper or Riverton will be handled by that steamer and transferred at North Bend. Steamship connection between Coquille River ports and the trade centers at present consists of periodic visits of the steam schooner Bandon and the gasoline schooner Enterprise, operating out of Sun Fiancisco. This arrangement gives the merchants of the Bay City the upper hand and consequently nearly all the supplies for that country come from San Francisco instead of Portland. Ralea from San Francisco to Bandon are considerably higher than the rate which -will he asked hy the new combina tion. Portland at one time held nearly all of the trade of that section of the country but no attempt was made to as sist tlie struggling transforation com panies and San Francisco dealers gobbled up the trade. As yet the only traffic arrangement which has been entered Into hy the new company has been with the operators of the steamship Alliance. The steamship City of Panama, which will take the place of the Breakwater on the Coos Bay run. can deliver freight to the places named by way of railroad from Marsh field to Coquille, thence by steamboat to Bandon, Prosper and Riverton. At present the rate by this route is con siderably In excess of M per ton find the Southern Pacific Company will prob ably be forced to meet the new rate. SAILORS Mil MAKE TROUBLE Lockout of Firemen and Sailors Is Looked For. A lockout of marine firemen and sailors belonging to unions In San Francisco is looked for within the next two weeks. The wage schedule and the contract which is entered into annually between members of the union and the ship owners, was to have been signed up April 1 hut to date there has been no settle ment. It is understood that the Associa tion of Steamship-Owners will take ti hand In the matter and force the mem bers ot the union either to sign or be locked out. A lockout at this particular time would not work any great hardship on the owners. Rates are low and in order to keep the steam schooners working it is necessary to take wheat In the hold and lumber on deck. It would be easier to settle the matter now than in the Fall or Winter when business is good. KIVER IS FALLING K AP IDLY Couch-Street Dock Will Be Dry by Tonight. Panger of a flood has passed and the river at Portland Is failing rapidly. The Couch-etreet dock will be above the level of the "Willamette River by this evening and the other docks on approximately the same level will be dry before the end of another day. Ash-street dock, which is the lowest on the front, will be dry by th end of the week if the same steady fall continues. At present there is no prospect of an additional rise. The snow has been melting- gradually in the mountains and this is the only source of water. The locks at the Cascades did not close at any time durlrur the freshet in the Columbia. Marine Xotcs. The oil tank steamship Col. E. L. Drake arrived up yesterday from San Fran cisco. The steamship Rosecrans, with the schooner Monterey in tow. reached port last night from 8an Francisco.

The fourth annual reunion of the Bozorth family was celebrated here last Thursday, but owing- to the incle ment weather only about 75 members and relatives were present. The Bo zorth family is one of the oldest fam ilies in Washington, having- come here in 1845. and has been a prominent fac tor in the upbuilding and bringing- out of this section of Washington.

The business section of the city will be thoroughly decorated in this manner for the celebration and a part of the decorations may become a permanent feature here. Legislature Leaves Offices .Vacant. OLYMPIA. Wash., June 28. (Special.) Under a ruling made by the Attorney General, the earliest date upon which a declaration of candidacy can be filed un der the new primary law is Friday. July 10, and the last day is Saturday. August 8. The Attorney-General in the same NEW r i lit i. 11 H031t; opinion holds that although the Supreme Court has held that the offices of Game Warden and of County Fruit Inspectors are elective, the Legislature has passed no law providing for the election of such officers, and County Auditors should not file nor receive declarations of candidacy for such officers. y T PLAX TO INCLUDE DISPLAY IX STOCK SHOW. Country Club Officials, However, May Xot Find Time to Take Vp This Feature. Poultry fanciers of Portland have opened negotiations with the County Club and Livestock Association with a view of having the regular annual exposition of the "feathery tribes" embodied In the Pacific National meet to be held here the third week of September. The matter will come up at an early meeting of the executive committee when it will be decided whether there is time enough for the association to arrange for adding this important division to the other ex hibits. While the organization is bending every effort to include as many distinctive and diversified features as possible in the week's programme, here next Fall, there is some question whether a successful poutry show could be handled with the meet but a little more than two months away. It is admitted that it would be a big drawing card and would attract a large attendance of breeders of fine chickens, geese, ducks and turkeys, but the officials are literally swamped now in handling the work In connection with the harness races and the standard divisions of the livestock show, and may not be able to accept the offer of the poultrymen. Within tho next few days the premium list for the livestock will be announced and it will cover a wider classification of divisions and hold out more attractive awards than any other exposition ever held on the Pacific Coast. As has been announced, the Country Club and Livestock Association will hang up a total prize list of $40,000, to cover both the harness races and the exposi tion. Tho cash prizes announced in the racing card of the early closing events aggregate $12.0f) and a ifumber of spe cials in addition to the ten scheduled events will probably be added in which large purses will be contested for. But it Ms safe to say that pretty close to $20,000 in premiums will be given out for the successful contestants in the lire stock exposition. This includes the grand champions, champions and prize-winners. Several representatives of Eastern livestock-breeders and importers have notified the association that they, will be in Port land within the next few weeks to, ar range for exhibits, and it is assured from advices already received that there will be a fine array of direct importations of horses, cattle and sheep, from Europe, in the list of entries contributed by the Eastern stockmen. .A HEW llSFAhTllRB. The cost of interments has been greatly reduced by the Uolman Undertaking Company. Heretofore it has been the custom of funeral directors to make charges for all Incidentals connected with a funeral. The Edward Holman Undertaking Company, the leading funeral directors of Portland, have departed from that custom. When casket is furnished by us we make no extra charges for embalming, hearse to cemetery, outside box or any services that may be required of us, except clothing, cemetery and carriages, thus effecting a laving of $25 to $75 on each funeral.

Building of flats has become a habit in many districts of the East Side.

Ing of that description in the district from Hancock to the Gulch and Tenth to the river, according to a long-time resi dent of that section of the city. In a recent walk he counted six completed and others under way. This furnishes further evidence that more people are in search of places to live in than there are houses available. Not only fiats are in demand, but apartments are filled up as rapidly as finished, the Inquiry for these being particularly noticeable on the West Side. At the close of office hours Saturday noon there had been 341 building permits issued for the month to date, carrying reported valuations of $flR6.inO. For the week 112 permits were Issued with valua tions of $227,730. E. M. Lazarus, the architect, who was Injured last week by having his horse fall on him, Is reported much improved. This Is the second accident the architect has met with of the kind. Concrete piers are being molded in the basement of the Rosenblatt hotel. The outer walls of the foundation are set and have received the finishing coat of cement on the interior. Work is to be carried forward at once on the super structure. This hotel is to occupy the southwest corner of Tenth and Alder streets. Work of tearing down the frame build ings on the 100x100 feet at the northwest corner of Fifth and Stark streets will be gin this week. The owner, Gay Lombard, intends to proceed at once with a modern building on the site, though its height is not definitely decided upon. Deed was recorded Saturday for lot 5, block 70. Couch Addition, naming $10,000 as consideration. The lot is next the southwest corner or Tenth and Everett streets and the transfor was made by Jacob Boemer, executor, to A. T. Hlggins. The completion of the North Bank Rail road bridge across the Columbia from Vancouver to the lower Peninsula has already created additional activity in lots in that locality. Selling agents report ex ceptionally brisk business for the week just ended, though they say it is nothing compared to what is expected after the usual Summer dullness is over. Despite active efforts by the Board of Education to keep pace with the growth of the city in building new schoolhouses, it Is found difficult to do so. The new building nearing completion In the Rich' mond district will accommodate 350 pupils, and now before the building is ready there is talk of adding a wing, so rapidly is the district increasing In population. Good progress is being made on the Y. A". C. A. building, at Seventh and Taylor streets. It is the expectation of the as sociation to get into their new and com modious home about the middle of Oc tober. The Pantages Theater building presents quite an Improved appearance since the additional story has been added and 'the interior remodeled. Work is progressing favorably on the stage and auditorium. First floor alterations of the Perkins Hotel have been finished and the new office, done in white and hard woods, is now one of the handsomest in the city. The grandstand at Multnomah Field is approaching completion. Work has been started on the roof and tiling on the field for drainage is going on satisfactor ily. The grounds will be quite ready at the opening of the football season. Eleven sets of plans offered in compe tition are in the hands of the Board of Education for the proposed new high school to be erected in the Albina dis trict. Outside architects are to be called to pass on the plans submitted, the one selected being awarded a prize of $S00, the next best $300 and the next one $200. F. A. Legg, the architect, announces thaj. bids will be received until July on the new bank building for the United States National, at Salem. The building is to be of brick and stone and Is esti mated to cost between $45,000 and $50,000. About the most interest stirred up In recent months over new tracts is that developed in those on the Salem electric road. Several farms of suitable location along the line out from 10 to 15 miles have been acquired recently and cut up into five and ten-acre lots, and reports are made that movement is quite good In their sale. Market gardeners are at pres ent among the best buyers, though city residents who look for country places are also becoming interested. Everything is ready for starting build ing of the warehouses for Wallace & Devlin and Parlin-OrendorfT Company in the new, East Side wholesale district on the line of the Southern Pacific. E. A. Lynds has taken out permits for the erection of eight dwellings on Clinton street between East Twenty-eighth and Kenilworth. Movement has been started to consoli date the city and county of Multnomah under one government. If this movement results in consummation the proposal un der consideration some months ago to build a Joint building for the use of both,, will again come to the front and settle the question of replacing the out-of-date -s?,fc 220 r- Courthouse with a structure more in keeping with the times. Doyle & Patterson announce . they will be ready to receive bids July 1 for the excavation for the Meier & Frank build ing, to be erected at Sixth and Alder. At the next meeting of the Realty Board a committee will report on the DO YOU CONTEMPLATE BUILDING? An Artistic Residence. This house can be built for $3,190, ex clusive of heating and plumbing. It is designed by Glenn L. Saxton, architect, 243-44 Security Bank Building, Minne apolis, Minn. This is not only an artistic home, but it is a practical home to build.

The Peninsula Lumber Company Is cut ting an order of 3.520,000 feet of lumber for the warehouse to be erected by the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railroad on the front at foot of Savier street. About 60 shingle manufacturers of Washington recently held a meeting and discussed a plan to establish selling agencies in the principal cities of the Northwest to handle the entire output, and thus do away with Jobbing trade. E. E. Gould, of this city, through the agency of Devlin & Flrebaugh, has sold lots 3 and 4, block 2. Improved with a 9-room house, at Arbor Lodge, to H. M.

Music Lovers Delighted by Skillful Rendition of Difficult and High - Class Selections. Another large crowd assembled at the City Park yesterday afternoon to hear the second concert of Signor de Caprlo's band and to enjoy the perfect weather. The ground in the immediate vicinity of the band stand was crowded with music lovers long before the opening number.

Signor de Caprlo's band was never IS better form, rendering a series of diffi cult selections with assurance and ease. Seldom does a concert programme In clude four such master works as the Procession March from "Parsival," the "William Tell' overture, the grand selec tion from "Cavallerla Rustieana" and Act III from "La Boheme." These num bers and others, which would tax the powers of any musical organization, were presented with admirable spirit and un derstanding. The Saint-Saens "Poeme Symphonique," better known as the "Skeleton's Dance," with Its weird har monies, was one of the enjoyable num bers of the afternoon. Signor de Cap rlo's baritone solo also was warmly ap preciated and earned an encore from the large audience. To the admirers of Puccini's melodious music the selection from Act III of the favorite opera "La Boheme" was Indeed a musical treat; Thanks are due Signor de Caprlo for his judgment in including this particular act of the opera In yes terday's programme.
