September foreign grain shipment
opened yesterday with the clearance of
two vessel. The first to clear was the
British steamship Braemount. under char
ter to Kerr. Gilford Co., which finished
late In the day at Montgomery No. 2. Her
cargo consists of 77.793 sacks of wheat,
valued at $153,900. The other clearance was
the French bark Eugenie Fautrel. loaded
with 45.470 sacks of wheat, valued at
JUO.T02. under charter to Balfour. Guthrie
The" Braemount was reported ready to
sail this morning and is to proceed to St.
Vincent for orders. The Eugenie Fautrel
is to report for orders at Queenstown or
Falmouth. Among the arrivals yesterday
was the Norwegian bark Daghold. under
charter to Kerr. Gifford & Co.
As reported yesterday In The Oregonlan.
September foreign shipments of grain
will break all records, as there is al
ready chartered for the month 21.147 tons
eteam and over 10.000 tons sail, which will
run the total of the month over 2,000,00
bushels of wheat and barley.
One of the principal local shipping agen
cies reports that no li-ss than 150 vessels
will arrive and depart at this port In the
grain and lumber trade during the fiscal
year, that Is. between now and July 1.
That would mean a large vessel to leave
this port every otrer day from now to
the close of the season.
KATES OX FLOUR RAISED
Chinese Boycott on Japanese Aids
American Liners.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Sept. L Flour
freight rates to China, Japan and the
Philippine Islands were advanced today.
The rate to Japan has been boosted from
II a ton to $3; to Shanghai, from $3 to
J4: Hongkong, from R! to $3.50. and
Manila, from $3.30 to $4. About a month
ago operators of steamships In the Ori
ental trade held a meeting and decided
to raise the tariff on flour September 1.
The absence of itinerary freighters from
the local market was a potent factor in
the present Increase.
Last Fall saw a heavy Influx of many
foreign freighters to Puget Sound and
the Government offlrlals came In for
severe censure by the shipowners for
chartering foreign bottoms to bring coal
to the Pacific for the Atlantic battleship
fleet. These vessels, having delivered
their cargoes at San Francisco, were left
on the Pacific without cargoes. They
were anxious to get to their destinations
and accepted cargoes at almost any fig
ureanything to help defray the operat
ing expanses of the vessel. In order to
meet this competition the regular liners
were forced to pull down their rates until
the tariff on flour to China was as low as
$1. a figure which established a record
in Oriental shipping history.
With practically all the tramp liners
gone, the regular line companies got to
gether and decided on the advance In
rates which went into effect today. The
present Chinese boycott on the Japanese
is one factor which Is helping local Ori
ental freight carrying steamship lines.
The Chinese are demanding that their
goods be sent in ships owned by others
than Japanese, and this has thrown much
business to American companies that
might have gone to the Japanese lines.

YOUNG GIRL HAS
THIEF FOR DOUBLE
Miss Marie Honig Is Arrested
for -Theft, but Clearly
Proves Alibi.
CASE MISTAKEN IDENTITY
Although Witnesses for Prosecution
Accuse Her of Shop-Lifting, Her
Own Friends Prove She Was
In Eugene at Time of Theft.
Arrested at her home In Eugene four
days ago. rushed to Portland on a charge
of shoplifting, released on bonds, tried In
Municipal Court yesterday afternoon and
acquitted after establishing a clear case
: t
MISS MARIE HONIG, OF ECGENE.
of mistaken identity, is the strange case
of Marie Honig. a striking blonde, 19
years of age, who resides with her mother
at the university town.
Stranger still, it was established by her
attorney, John H. Stevenson, that another
woman, remarkably like the defendant In
appearance, her double In fact, had at
tempted a crime similar to the one for
which she was arrested. It was not
proved that the double committed the of
fense for which Miss Honlg was arrested,
but the Innocence of the defendant was
established sufficiently to cause the case
against her to be dismissed.
The young woman was charged with
having entered the Palais Royal store, an
exclusive women's establlshmeufon Wash
ington street, and making away with a
crepe de chine dress. The theft was ex
tremely bold and equally as novel.- me
young woman walked into the place, ap
proached a saleswoman and asked to be
shown a certain kind of dress. The sales
woman complied with the request and the
prospective purchaser was quickly satis
fied. She ordered the dress done up in a
parcel and. as the saleswoman did so,
asked that it be charged to her husband,
Harry Redding, steward at the Portland
Hotel.
This the saleswoman could not do, and
referred the young woman to Mrs. M. E.
Becker, proprietress. The young woman
walked back to Mrs. Becker's desk and re
peated the request. Mrs. Becker de
murred, declaring that she would call the
hotel by phone and ascertain the relia
bility of the proposed creditor. The young
woman protested and refused to consent to
such action. She Insisted that sne be al
lowed to take the dress with her and tha
bill be sent to her husband. Mrs. Becker
refused, but meanwhile the saleswoman
had placed the parcel containing the dress
near the young, woman.
Bold Thief Steals Dress.
Suddenly she seized .it. and before any
of the employes could stop her, dashed
out of the store and down the street.
Police headquarters was at once notified
and Detective Hawley detailed on the
case. He questioned many of the em
ployes of the Palais Royal who had seen
the bold shoplifter. Each had caught only
a profile, or side view, but gave excellent
descriptions.. Then Redding was called
up and asked if he knew anyone answer
ing the description of the young woman,
who would represent herself to be his
wife.
"Of course I do." he replied without hes
itation, "It's Marie Honig."
The crime was committed August 21.
Detective Hawley boarded the train and
went to Eugene, where MWle Honlg lives.
She had returned from the theater and had
just retired when the oftcer called. Has
tily arising, she attired herself and caught
the train to Portland In half an hour. On
her aVrival she was released on bail and
was tried yesterday.
Meanwhile a crime, almost identical
in detail and conception, had been at
tempted at the department store of
Meier & Frank Company by a woman
resembling Marie Honig very closely.
The woman went Into the suit depart
ment and asked to see a certain kind of
suit. She also was quickly satisfied,
and ordered the suit done up in a
package. After the saleswoman had
complied the purchaser asked that it
be charged to Harry Redding, her hus
band, steward at the Portland Hotel.
The saleswoman referred the request
to the credit department and the sale
was not made. The department was
willing to do aa she requested provided
she consented to calling Redding by
phone. This she refused to do.
Frills and Feathers In Courtroom.
The scene In Municipal Court yes
terday afternoon during the trial was
an odd one. Filled with femininity,
the gloomy walls where the blind god
dess presides looked down upon frills
and feathers; and Incidentally upon
many gum-chewing matches. On the
. 1-1 -. V. . .. n. t nt WAmn VMB
many patrolmen, who were deeply in
terested. News of the queer case spread
rapidly about the building, and even
Chief Grltzmacher Joined the throng of
curious spectators.
With the exception" of Redding, his
friend. Pierce, also an employe of the
Portland Hotel, and a handwriting ex
pert, all the witnesses were women.
And they were evenly divided, and
equally positive of the merits of their
respective sides. When a witness for
the defense made a statement, wit
nesses for the- state shook their heads,
glanced at each other and smiled in
credulously. And the same was true
of the witnesses for the defense when
the state's witnesses were testifying.
Mrs. M. E. Becker, the complainant,
was the first witness called by the
state. She w.is positive in her iden
tification of the defendant as the bold
young woman who entered her store
and made away with a suit of cloth
ing, the price of which was $37.50. 8he
told of the theft and related not only
a clear &nd concise story, but remained
steadfast In her identification under
severe cross-questioning by Mr.
Stevenson. Several of her employes
also testified. Including Miss Modjeskl.
Mrs. Cole and Mrs. Amms.
None of the others, however, was
positive In the identification, though
they were emphatic that the profile,
side anrl rear view of the defendant
were identical with those of the
woman. Descriptions of profiles, of
hats and gowns and hair were promi
nent features of the examination.
Redding testified that he knew MiA
Honlg quite well. Indeed, had been her
very good friend and admitted that he
at once suspected it 'was she when he
was given a description of the woman
who entered the Palais Royal and
maAe away with the suit.
A photograph of the defendant was
introduced as evidence. It had been
Identified by many of the employes of
the Palais Royal as the picture of
the woman who stole the suit. How
ever, it was only a profile view, and
while admitted by Miss Honig to be a
picture of herself. It could not be
Identified positively as that of the
woman who stole the suit.
Miss Honlg Proves Alibi.
The defendant, in her own behalf,
swore that she was in Eugene at the
time of the theft and had been there
several days before. She went Into
detail as to her movements during the
time preceding and following the theft.
Her statement were corroborated by
all the witnesses forjhe defense.
In her behalf, her mother, and a
number of friends from Eugene, were
present as witnesses. Among them
were Mrs. Mary E. Honlg, mother of
the defendant; Mrs. George McMann,
Mrs. Julia Caylor, Miss Frankle Caylor
and Mrs. Claude Gaby. ,
A young saleswoman at Meier &
Frank's testified positively that the
defendant was not the woman who
come to the department store and
asked that a dress be charged to
Harry Redding, her husband. She de
scribed In detail the other woman, who
had represented herself to be the wife
of the hotel steward, but was positive
that the defendant was not the woman.
During the progress of the trial
there were continual bickerings be
tween the attorneys, and. as a conse
quence, the conclusion was delayed un
til a late hour. In rendering his de
cision Judge Van Zante not only found
the defendant not guilty and dismissed
the case, but took occasion to declare
that In his opinion she had been
clearly exonerated. ' ,
STABS MAN 15 TIMES
Bay Company employe Arrested for
Attack on Butcher.
John Brown, a young man employed
by the Neville Bag Company, and who
resides at Fourth and Oak streets, was
arrested last night, charged with assault
on Fred King, a butcher, who lives at
the Kenyon flats, corner of Nineteenth
and Washington streets. Brown, It is
alleged, stabbed King no less than 15
times In an altercation which grew out
of an accusation made by Brown that
King, or a woman named Emma Gleason,
who also rooms at this house, was guilty
of stealing $15 from Brown's pockets. The
police also arrested the Gleason woman
last night and are .holding her on a
charge of vagrancy pending closer ex
amination. King and Brown were together in a
saloon and King took Brown to the Glea
son woman's room. While there it is al
leged Brown was robbed. According to
the story the police have of the affair.
Brown demanded that the Gleason
woman return his money. Falling to
get It he appealed to King. Vho, in the
meantime, had gone to his own room.
King, it is said, ridiculed Brown, who
drew a knife and inflicted the wounds.
Dr. Rand dressed the man's Injuries.
None of the wounds, he said, is serious.

GUARD SALMON FRY
Master Fish Warden McAllis
ter Has Plans.
BUILD CENTRAL HATCHERY
Journey of Yonog Fish Back to Sea
From Some Point on Ixwer Wil
lamette Would Be Easier
Than Now, He Believes.
Important changes, designed to pro
mote the salmon industry in the II
lamette and Columbia Rv- J 1ptro"
posed for next year by H. C. McAllister.
Oregon's Master Fish Warden. -Foremost
among these innovations is the es
tablishment of a central station or hatch
ery at some point on the Willamette or
Columbia Rivers below the Willamette
Falls at Oregon City. The object of such
an arrangement, explains Master Fish
Warden McAllister, is to Insure the safe
Journey to tide water of salmon fry with
a minimum of danger from their chler
enemy, the trout, at the same time
avoiding obstructions, natural and other
wise, in the two streams.
The capacity of the station will be suf
ficiently large to accommodate the take
of eggs from the different hatcheries.
These will be hatched at the main sta
tion, where the young fish will be fed.
until the time comes to liberate them.
The nearer such a station is located to
tidewater, the more certain It is that
the young salmon would reach the salt
water without being exposed as prey to
trout, for the length of either of the Wil
lamette Or Columbia Rivers.
There exists no question with fish cul
turists but that under the present sys
tem of liberating young fry at the dll
ferent hatcheries on the' Willamette and
Columbia Rivers or their tributaries, only
a limited per rent of them reaches tide
water. En route they serve as food for
the predatory, trout, while those liber
ated from hatcheries on the Willamette
River and Its tributaries above the falls
at Oregon City are beset with other diffi
culties. During the Summer season,
when the fry descend the river. It ts
practically impossible for them to pass
over the Willamette Falls at Oregon
City. During the low water season, all
of the water In the Willamette Is appro
priated at Oregon City for manufactur
ing purposes. Their only outlet is
through the turbine wheels of the paper
mills at that point, through which they
are forced by the current of the river.
By this process the young fish are killed.
Master Fish Warden McAllister yester
day declined to discuss this subject, hav
ing not had an opportunity since assum
ing his office to study actual conditions
and observe the extent of harm resulting
to the young fish as they descend tne
Willamette.
"There Is no question but the wheels
at the paper mills destroy a great many
of the young fry," said Mr. McAllister
yesterday, "but until I have had a chance
to Investigate actual conditions at the
Willammette Falls, I would not wish to
Bay to what extent the fry are injured by
existing conditions. With the fishway that
is maintained at the falls by the state
there is no trouble for the adult fish to
reach the upper Willamette River for
spawning purposes, but there is no ques
tion that the young salmon as they are
released from the upper river hatcheries
have difficulty In reaching the ocean,
many of them undoubtedly not getting to
tidewater at all."
DEFENDS DANCE PAVILION
A. Ducbamp Answers Attack on Mu
nicipal Association.
PORTLAND. Aug. 31. (To the Ed
itor:) deferring to the letter of John
Bain, secretary of the municipal league,
addressed to the Mayor of this city,
which appeared in the public press of
recent date and in which occasion is
taken to attack the good name of
Council Crest and the dancing pavilion
thereon, I desire to state that there is
absolutely no such condition existing
at this place and that there never has
been since the property has been under
my control. It Is inexplicable to me,
to understand what motive could have
prompted such a story. The authori
ties as well as the Mayor himself are
aware that I have taken every means
in my power to keep Council Crest
morally as clean as any semi-public
park of this nature can be maintained.
That I have succeeded in so doing can
be vouched by Innumerable good citi
zens who visit the place daily. There
will always be some Infraction of law
and order at all places of this charac
ter, but it is very rare here and the po
lice can bear witness to the truth of
this statement. Council Crest is un
derleased to me for a long period as a
business proposition. I propose to
transform the property into a scenic
amusement park for financial revenue,
at the sam time the beautifying of
this spot must and will add to the
attractions. It must be evident to ev
ery thinking person that it would be
very bad business policy to permit the
alleged atrocities, etc., to which Mr.
John Bain calls attention. The good
gentleman, as well as other members
of the league are invited to make a
more careful examination of chis so
called vice-breeding place and unless
NIGHT NURSE
Kept In Perfect Trim by Right Food.
Nursing the sick is often very bur
densome to the nurse.
Night nursing Is liable to be even
more exhausting from the fact that the
demands of the system for sleep are
more urgent during the night hours.
A Va lady, called on to act as night
nurse in the family, found the greatest
support from the use of Grape-Nuts
food. She says:
"Our acquaintance with Grape-NuU
began eight years ago. We bought the
first package sold In this place, and
although we began as skeptics we be
came converts to its striking food
value.
"I used Grape-Nuts first, to sustain
me when doing night nursing for a
member of the family. I ate a tea
spoonful at a time and by slowly
chewing it I was able to keep awake
and felt no fatigue.
"Soon I grew to like Grape-Nuts
very much and after out patient re
covered I was surprised to find that I
was not at all 'worn out' on account of
broken rest. My nerves were strong
and steady and my digestion fine. This
was the more surprising because I had
always suffered with weak nerves and
indigestion. My experience was so
satisfactory that other members of the
family took up Grape-Nuts with like
results." "There's a Reason'."

ton avenue and Kelly street, when the
vehicle was struck and he was thrown
to the ground.
Dr. C. H. Wheeler was in the vicinity
at the time and attended the man. He
was removed to Good Samaritan Hos

ments above the tracks shut off the

the Salem line are unable to see a
wagon or team, approaching at the
Hamilton-avenue crossing.
