FIGURES FOR LOCAL PORT
Duties Collected on Imports for
Period Ending June 30 Less Than
Year Ago Prospects Brighter
for Xext Year Marine News.
The receipts from duties collected at
the Portland branch of the United States
Customs-House for the fiscal year ending
June 30, show an increase over all pre
vious periods except the year ending June
30, 1907. The total reccplts for the past
year were tl,O3S,608.25, while the figures
for the previous year were $1,157,000.
The falling off in this year's receipts
is believed to be due to the recent finan
cial flurry which affected maritime ship
ping as well as inland business. One fire
works importing firm alone would have
brought the year's receipts up to the fig
ures of the former period but for' con
ditions resulting from the financial strin
gency. On account of the shortage in the
money market last Winter this firm can
celled practically half of its annual fire
works order. The duty on this character
of merchandise is quite heavy and had
the firm received Its full shipment as
originally planned, the customs receipts
would have more than surpassed the pre
vious year. Other firms were hit Just
as hard by the flurry, and the cause of
the slight falling off is apparent.
The month of June, the last of the fiscal
year, showed splendidly in the matter of
collections, for the sum of $102,273.35 was
tuken in by Collector Malcolm as duty on
merchandise brought Into Portland from
foreign ports, 'ihe above figures for June
are quite large for that month, which is
usually slack in shipping circles.
The listing of an unusually large num
ber of vessels for Portland during the
year Just Inaugurated Indicates that the
record of 1907 Is likely to be broken. Kach
of these vessels usually enriches the
Treasury Department by from $10,000 to
$20,000. With a larger number en route
than ever before, the prospects are ex
ceedingly bright for a record-breaking
year In the Portland branch of the cus
toms service.
POMOXA IS OX XEW ROUTE
I'ppcr Kiver CraTt Changes From
Corvallls to Salem Run.
The low water in the Upper Willamette
has made it necessary for the Oregon
City Transportation Company to with
draw Its regular steamer Pomona from
the Corvallls run. However, the Oregona
will continue to ply between Portland
end the Valley town, for the latter craft
Is of considerably less draft than the Po
mona and will have no trouble in nego
tiating the river at the shallow points
liear Corvallls.
The work of the snagboat Mathloma
and the Government dipper dredge has
made the channel of the Upper Willam
ette navigable for craft of the Oregonas
draft, but the Pomona is a little too large
to make the trip while loaded with
freight, and It was decided to withdraw
her during the dry period. The Pomona
will be placed on the Salem route, and
the Leon a. when her repairs are com
pleted, will likely be placed en the Mc
Minnvllle run.

Luckily, the steamers managed to extri

JUNE'S LOW DEATH RATE
Only 117 Certificates Are Issued
From Health Office.
The death rate in Portland for June
was the lowest for any month during
the past 2 years, according to a state
ment issued from the City Health office.
The exceedingly small percentage of
deaths during the month is still further
evidence of the healthful climate and
sanitary conditions of Portland.
From January 1, 1908, to June 30,
1908, there have been filed at the City
Health Office 1248 death certificates.
415 of which were for males and 833
of which were for females. The death
rate in March was the highest, there

Agents Making No Effort to
Collect Higher Premium.
HEED PUBLIC INDIGNATION
Power Company Will Change Cir
cuits at Once to Meet Demands of
ITnderwrlters and Advance of
Rate Will Be "Withdrawn.
Fira Insurance agents of the city are
so certain that the recent 25-cent ad
vance in premiums, ordered by the Board
of Fire Underwriters of the Pacific, will
be withdrawn in a short time that they
are paying no attention to it. Agents are
not making any effort to collect the ad
vanced rates, but have - bowed to the
storm of public indignation that has been
raised by the advance. They express
themselves as certain that the old rates
will be restored, now that the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company ' has
agreed to make the changes desired by
the underwriters.
Men have already been put to work on
the task of changing the ground cir
cuits to the desired metallic return cir
cuits, which will do away with the pres
ent practice of feeding a strong, direct
current into every building . of the city
where there is an elevator, motor or any
sort of electrical appliance requiring
power.
This task will be completed so far as
changing the West Side district is con
cerned within the next few days, and
then the same work will be done on the
East Bide. President Josselyn promises
that the desired changes will be made
with all possible expedition and that when
the task is accomplished, there will be no
further cause for complaint by the under
writers or anyone else.
The declaration made yesterday that
the underwriters would be attacked un
der the Sherman anti-trust law is not
taken seriously in view of the speedy
understanding reached by the power com
pany and the insurance men. Local busi
ness men, aggrieved by the sharp advance
in rates, talked of getting revenge on the
underwriters by prosecuting them under
the anti-trust act and it was said that the
suit would result, no doubt, in victory for
the complainants. Now that the agree
ment to comply with the requirements
of the underwriters has been reached,
the effect of which will be in all proba
bility that the rates will nover be raised
at all, there is little likelihood of a suit
being filed.
But business men are talking for the
repeal of the .deposit law as applied to
outside Insurance companies and it is
likely that such a measure will be pre
sented at the next Legislature. That it
will find strong support in Multnomah
County, where the heavy hand of the un
derwriters galls the most, is believed,
but it is considered doubtful if the outside
districts will support such a bill.
BUILD ANNEX TO CHURCH
Hassalo-Slrect Congregational
Add Gymnasium.
Will
Preliminary work will be started
this morning on improvements to the
Hassalo-street Congregational Church,
Holladay's Addition, which will cost
7000. A frame addition will be built
in the rear of the present structure,
71 feet long, 30 feet wide and two
stories high. There will also be im
provements to the front of the build
ing. The annex is to provide the young
people of the church with a gym
nasium, which is something very few
churches have, and yet has come to be
recognized as desirable. The gym
nasium wiil be located ci the first
floor of the annex and it will be ar
ranged so it may be use3 either as one
long room or two smaller ones. When
basketball is played the apartments
will be thrown together. On this
floor there will also be snower baths
and lockers. In the second story there
will be 14 classrooms for the use of
the Sunday school. In order to begin
construction on the annex the present
frame building back of the church will
be torn down.
Rev. Paul Rader, the pastor of the
church, is a firm believer in making
special arrangements to interest young
people in work of the church. He says
that money for the improvements has
been subscribed. An active men s club
has been the principal medium for
raising funds for the addition.

Functioned derangements, commonly termed "weak

Contracted Disorders
SAFE, PERMANENT CURES
To-but partially cure a contracted disease is almost
as dangerous as to allow it to go untreated. Unless
every particle of Infection and Inflammation Is re
moved, the probability exists that the disease will
gradually work its way Into the general system. Still
greater is the danger of the prostate gland becoming
chronically Inflamed, which always brings partial or
complete loss of sexual power. Perhaps 25 per cent
of the cases of so-called "weakness" are a direct
result of some improperly treated contracted disease.
During the past five years I have treated thousands
of cases of contracted disorders, and have effected an
absolute, thorough and safe cure In each instance.
There have been no relapses or undesirable develop
ments whatever, and my patients have been cured
in less time than other and less thorough forms of
treatment require in producing even doubtful results.
SPECIFIC BLOOD POISON
Others dose the system with mineral poisons scarcely
less dangerous than the disease itself. The best they
hope to do by this treatment is to keep the disease
from manifesting Its presence upon the surface of the
body. Under my treatment, the entire svstem is
cleansed. The last taint of virus is destroved. Every
symptom vanishes to appear no more. I employ harm
less blood-cleansing remedies. They are remedies
heretofore unknown In the treatment of this disease.
They cure by neutralizing and absolutely destroying
the poison in the system. Such cures cannot be other
than complete and permanent.
