14 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JULY 28, 1903. NIC0MFD1A TAKES BIG FLOUR CARGO Regular Line Steamer Hauls . First Grain Shipment . to the Orient. SMALL AMOUNT OF LUMBER Vessel Leaves Town This Morning. Lumber Exports Foreign Exceed 18,000,000 Feet, and Two i Cargoes in Sight. The Portland & Asiatic Steamship Com pany' liner Nicomedla cleared for Hong kong and way ports yesterday with 45, Vfti barrels of flour, valued at $135,799.50; 743,127 feet of lumber, valued at J7431, and a small quantity of general careo. The total value of the cargo of the Xieo mpdla amounted to J143.990. The steamer will leave down the river this morning. The Nicomedla is the first vessel to clear for the new cereal year with flour. There has been one "full cargo of grain cleared for Europe, but no flour had passed the Custom-House- until yesterday. During the month of July, 1907. the exports of flour, foreign, amounted to 51.900 barrels. During that month no wheat was export ed to foreign ports. The flour shipments fur July, 1907. were divided between the Manshu Maru and the Alesia. ' Lumber shipments to foreign ports will break all records for the first month of the fiscal year, which will close Friday. The shipments for the present month amount to 16,856.583 feet, with cargoes of the Dulwlch and the Ancalos to be added before August 1. Lumber exports, foreign, for July, 1907. amounted to only a little more than 4.000.000 feet. During the en tire year the greatest exports were dur ing October, when the total reached 13,- 726.288 feet. Coastwise shipments have dwindled down to practically nothing. For months there has not been a full cargo cleared for California ports. The few steam schoon ers which are in operation are taking car goes of wheat arid deckloads of lumber. July of last year sent six full cargoes to California, as compared with none for the present month. STEAMER KELTOX TOTAL LOSS Drifts From Mooring on Ebb Tide. Turns Turtle on Smith's Point. ASTORIA, Or.. July 27. (Special.) The steam schooner Minnie K. Kelton, which has had such a frightful experience dur ing the last few months, is now hard aground on the jetty sands below No. 8 buoy, and she will probably bleach her bones on the sands there. Yesterday Captain Genereaiix, under writers salvor, succeeded in raising the Kelton from the flats below Smith's Point until site swung clear of the bottom, and tplcgraphed for tugs to tow the craft to the St. John nrydock. The Kelton was held up by cables running under her and fastened to two large barges moored alongside. A smaller barge belonging to the diver was moored to one of the larger ones. There were four men on board the large barges and one on the smaller one. On the ebb tide last night, the Kelton and the barges carried away the dolphins to which they were fastened, and dragging their anchors, drifted down to the mouth of the river, where the Kelton grounded on the jetty sands and capsised. and now lies bottom up. with her stern fast and her bow swinging with the tide. . The Point Adams life-saving crew res cued the men and succeeded in anchoring the smaller barge, but the two larger ones drifted out and were picked up this morning by the tug Tatoosh, fully five miles beyond the lightship. There is now no hope of saving the Kel ton, and Bome believe she will be swept out to sea by the tide, while others say she will soon bury herself in the sands. where she lies. The Minnie E. Kelton, in command of Captain McKenna, was en route down the Coast with a cargo of lumber and encountered a severe gale. during which the vessel's house was car ried away and she became waterlogged. When off Yaqulna Head several members of her crew were drowned while trying to reach the land. Later, Captain McKenna dropped his anchors and with the balance of his crew went ashore. Shortly after ward the steamer Vashington picked up the waterlogged craft, towed her to this port and dropped her on the flats below Smith's Point, where she soon made a hole in the sands and where several thousand dollars have been expended in an attempt to float her. The Kelton was brought out from the Great Lakes by Captain Mc Kenna for the Miami Lumber Company, to go on the Tillamook run, and the trip on which the accident occurred was her first on the Pacific Coast. LONGSHOREMAN" IN CONTEMPT Tears Down Court Notice Placed Under Arrest at Seattle. SEATTLE. Wash.. July .27. The ar rest of Daniel Forbes, a union long shoreman, who has been active in the tight against the shipowners, on charges of contempt of court through tearing down a notice of the injunction issued by United States Judge Hanford, against the union, was the feature of the stevedores' strike situation today. There were some fist fights on the water-front, but otherwise the day was quiet. Several ships were loading with nonunion crews, and got away on de layed schedules. The longshoremen were cited to ap pear in the United States Court Sep tember 7. when personal service of the injunction restraining them from inter fering with the nonuion men will be made. STEAMER YAKIMA IS. SOLD Porter Brothers, Contractors, Have Secured Columbia River Boat. Porter Brothers, construction contract ors for the Northern Pacific Company, and prominent figures in the construction of the North Bank Road, have purchased the steamer Yakima from Captain John Mil ler. The boat will be used to carry sup plies and material between Kennewick and Priest Rapids. The Northern Pacific will build an ex tension of the road from Kennewick to Wenatchee. It will be more of a cut-oft than an extension, but will open up the Wenatchee Valley to the North Bank Koad. The Yakima is a stern-wheel vessel and has been operated in connection with the O. R. & N. fleet on Snake River. She was owned by Captain Miller and was built at Atnsworth, Wash., in 1S08. She registers 234 net tons. WATERSPOUT OX WILLAMETTE Strange Phenomenon Startles People on the Front. A waterspout occurred yesterday after noon at 1:30 o'clock between the Burnside and Morrison street bridges. It rose to a height of five or six feet and traveled In a southeasterly direction for about 260 yards. It flattened out before any damage was done. The peculiar spectacle was witnessed by a large number of people who were cross ing the bridges at the time, and also by a number of waterfront men. Captain Speier. harbormaster, witnessed the ap proach of the spout. -His sea experience caused him to recognize at once what was happening. Later, he said: "Had anyone told me that such a thing had oc curred I would have discredited It, but I saw the spout and I know something about those things." In the history of the weather service at Portland there is no record of any similar occurrence on the Willamette or Columbia Rivers," said Forecaster Beals. It was caused by the same conditions which are noticeable on the street. The whirlpool effects which take up quantities of dust from the streets were evident on the surface of the river and the suction was great enough to lift the water to the height described." , , SHIP OHIO CHANGES HANDS Sale of Alaska Liner Likely to End Conrad's Investigation. SEATTLE. Wash., July 27. (Special.) The Alaska Steamship Company has bought the steamship Ohio, which took 40 days to make the trip to Nome this season, and which is due here Thurs day or Friday.

PENALTIES ARE PROVIDED Fines and Imprisonment for Viola tions of Law District Attorney Calls Sheriffs Attention to the Statute. Because of the timber flree which have been destroying considerable cord wood and fences near Linn ton, District Attorney Cameron has called the atten tion of the Sheriff to the fact that all persons starting brush fires between June 1 and October 1 must have writ ten permission from the Fire "Warden to do so. As authority the District At torney cites the law of 1907, page 242, section 5, which reads: During the period betWMn June 1 and October 1, which Is hereby designated the close season. It shall be unlawful for any per son or persons to set on fire or cause to be set on fire any slashing-, chopping-, wood land or brush land, either his or thlr own or the property of another, w Knout written or print ed permission from a state fire warden and compliance with the terms thereof. This re- strlctioa shall not apply to the burning of los; piles, stumps or. brush heaps. In small quantities, at a safe distance from other In flammable material and under adequate pre cautions and personal control, and In accord ance with regulations adopted by said board; but if any such burning without permUsion shall result In the escape of fire and injury, to the property of antoher, this shall be held prima fade evidence that such burning was not safe and was a violation of this section. Violation of these provisions shall be pun ched by a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars ($25.00) nor more than five hundred dollars 1500.00), or by Imprisonment of not less than ten days nor more than three months. Permits to burn, as provided by this section, may be Issued by any state fire warden, and shall contain such restrictions as to time of burning and precaution to be taken as may be fixed by the State Board of Forestry or left by said Board to the discretion of fire wardens. Any fire warden- shall have the right to refuse, revoke or postpone permits when it is clearly necessary for public safety. Any applicant dissatisfied with the decision of a state fire warden shall have the right of appeal to the State Board of Forestry, Any permit obtained through willful misrepre sentation shall be invalid and give no ex emption from liability of any kind. Fire Wardens are appointed by the State Board of Forestry, upon the peti tion of property-owners, under section 3, page 242, 1907 session laws of Ore gon. BEGIN CRUSADE ON QUACKS WARRANTS ARE ISSUEP FOR FIVE PRACTITIONERS. . Alleged "Doctors" Will Be Prosecut ed for Operating Contrary to Pro vision of Cottel Ordinance. War on medical quacks and practition ers having on regular city licenses, was opened yesterday by the city authorities. Five warrants of arrest were issued as an initial volley. The warrants show the names of Dr. Philip T. Ball. Dr. Taylor, Gee Wood, Dr. Pierce and the-Van Vleck Glandular Company. Fifty names are on the city's scalp ing list, so it is learned, and complaints will be issued by the City Attorney's of fice just as fast as evidence can be col lected by the police and license inspectors. Other complaints, followed by warrants of arrest, will be issued today. The prosecutions are being made under the Cottel ordinance which provides that no person shall hold himself out as a physician who is not qualified and whose qualiftcation has not been tested and in dorsed by Issuance of a city license. City licenses are inexpensive, but are diffi cult to obtain except by regularly exam ined physicians. It Is alleged by many physicians and by representatives of the License Depart ment, that the city is fairly alive with half-baked doctors who are a menace to those unsophisticated enough to seek their services. Many of this class have been run out of the city by the police for questionable work, but the number re malning is said to be large. The charges against the five for which warrants were- issued yesterday merely cites that they are operating without city licenses and makes no mention as to their ability, except by implication. It Is un derstood that the charges are to be vig orously fought and taken to the highest court, if necessary. Evidence In each case was collected by the City License Department and the complaints were sworn to by Deputy License Inspector Hutchinson and issued by Deputy City Attorney Sullivan. City Attorney Kavanaugh has decided to lend an active hand in the prosecutions. Mr. Kavanaugh having decided that the ordi nance is regular and constitutional. In collecting evidence the authorities merely verified their belief that the par ties not licensed were actually practic ing medicine. In each instance July 20 is named as the date of the offense. On that day the various parties named were observed In the act of receiving and pre scribing for patients. PAILY CITY STATISTICS BlrtW De ORANDPBE At 860 Bast Tenth.

Clark, of the Springfield, Mass., Republican editorial staff., after an ex tensive trip through the West and Pa cific Coast regions, is outspoken in his praises of the Westerners' progressive spirit. "I started West several weeks ago." he said last night, "to visit relatives at Sutro, Nev. It was my first trip out into what we Easterners conceive as beinc a wild and woolly West. I found my first conceptions to be very agreeably shat tered. I was most favorably impressed with the agricultural methods employed here. They are so vast as compared with our little two-by-four Eastern methods that there is hardly any comparison. The mountains, or what pass for hills among you Westerners, are simply awe-inspiring. "If takes a fellow's breath away to be hold some of the mountain scenery, leav ing a most lasting sense of the bigness of things out here. The expression 'God's country' certainly applies. I went as far south along the Coast as Los Ange les, Cal., and there again I beheld fruits of all sorts, the like of which I had never dreamed existed. Portland, too, makes a very fitting finish for the traveler, and I shall spend a week In and about the city, seeing how you folks do business here." IDEAL CAMPING TRIP.

On arrival of the train yeterday morning bearing "The Thief" company, It was discovered that the special bag gage car had been entered through the side door and one of the trunks ran sacked. B. R. Manson, the Raymond Lagardes of the cast, suffered the loss of nearly all of his stage wardrobe and was obliged to replace It yesterday by purchases in Portland stores.. The com pany left Sacramento at midnight Sun day and, after the car was loaded, It was turned over to the yard master. The manager of the company is unable to de cided whether the car was broken open or the man in charge neglected to lock the door. No old sore can heal until the cause which produces it has been removed. External applications of salves, washes, lotions, etc., may reduce the inflam mation and assist in keeping the place clean, but cannot cure the trouble because they do not reach its source. Old sores exist because the blood is infected with impurities and poisons which are constantly being discharged into the place. The nerves, tissues and fibres of the flesh are kept ia a state of irritation and disease by being daily fed with the germ-laden matter through the circulation, making it impossible for the sore to heal. S. S. S. cures chronic sores by its purifying action on the blood. It goes down into the circulation, and removes the poison-producing germs, impurities and morbid matters which are responsible for the failure of the place to heal. S. S. S. makes the blood pure, fresh and healthy; then as new, rich blood is carried to the spot the healing process begins, all discharge ceases, the inflammation leaves, new tissue begins to form, the place fills in with firm, healthy flesh, and soon the sore is permanently cured. .

Various Methods of Carrying Awaj Surplus Have Been Attempted, but None Satisfactorily. Now that fills are to be made on East Morrison street between East Sev enth and Ninth streets, and on East Eighth between Belmont and East "Washington, the problem of taking care of the flow of water from Haw thorne Springs must be solved. Through the embankments on East Salmon and Belmont streets-there are spillways, which were easy to put in, as the ground in the slough is solid, but conditions are not the same at East Eighth and Morrison. An attempt to build a culvert to 'carry the water under the embankment of Grand ave nue proved a complete failure. The culvert was built on piles, but the weight' of the embankment crushed it. As the same conditions prevail at East Morrison street, it is not considered possible to build a culvert there. The plan of the City Engineer is to close up the spillway under the em bankment at East Salmon, raise the water to the level of the sewer on East Ninth and Salmon streets and turn the flow of water into this sewer. This, of course, will form a deep lake and completely cover the springs at Haw thorne avenue, but this plan Is not approved by the Hawthorne heirs, as they want to preserve the natural beauty of the springs. There are two springs from which 1.030.000 to 1.500,000 gallons of water flow .every 24 hours. Another plan is to cement the springs up and divert the water into the sewer In East Ninth street. At present the surplus water drains into the sewer at East Alder and Seventh streets. In view of the starting of the fill on East Morrison street in a short time the water will have to be taken care o OLD SORES DISEASES OF MEN CONSULTATION FREE Our treatment quickly re ores sick, weak and puny men to their former strength and vigorous manhood.

(Special. )- ere Sio My Fee in All Uncompli cated Cases Consult Me First Even though your case may be one that some other doctor is able to cure, and thaugrh his cure be absolutely thorough and permanent, there is yet s;ood cause for your coming to me for treat ment. The service 1 render is entirely unlike and better than the ordinary. I have devised hew and scientific methods of treating men's diseases In all their phases. I cure cases that others cannot cure, and cases that others can cure I cure In less time and without pain or possibility of injury. All my forms of treatment have been perfected along the lines of nature's requirements and are in exact harmony with the natural recuperative forces. Therefore, my cures are painless, prompt and thorough. Contracted Disorders The serious results that may follow neglect of contracted diseases could scarcely be exag erated. Safety demands an absolutely thorough cure in the least possible time. I have treated more cases of contracted disorders than any other physician upon the Pacific Coast. My cures are thorough and are accomplished in less time than other forms of treatment require In producing even doubtful results. I employ remedies of my own devising, and my treatment is equally effective in both recent and chronic cases. I Treat Men Only The vast multitude cf men who have taken my treatment have not been disappointed. They know that I do not promise more than I per form. To them I have actually illustrated In the cure of their own cases the truth of what I claim, namely, that my treatment is as certain to cure as it is that my patient engages my services and follows my directions. My suc cess is due not alone to education, experience, skill and scientific equipment, but to the fact that I limit my study and practice strictly to diseases and weaknesses of men. To male maladies alone I have earnestly and exclusively devoted 25 years of my life, and on them all my faculties are concentrated.
