PUGET SOUND MEN
ARE BADLY BEATEN
Drydock Charges Advanced
With View of Mulcting
Owners of the Beechley.
PORTLAND GETS PRIZE
Differential in Docking Rates
Amounted to 914,000 Advance
10 Cents Ton for Each Lay
Day Owners Save Money.
By adhering- strictly to" legitimate tneth
ods for securing business and abiding by
the published si-ale for drydock charges.
Portland has succeeded in winning the
recognition it deserve in the maritime
world. Owners of the British steamship
iweechley have effected a. saving of ud-
wards of $14,000 by sending that vessel
to Portland for repairs, the difference in
drydock charges being responsible.
David Rodgers, representing Johnson &
muggins, agents for the owners of th
wrecked British steamship Beechley, ar
rived in Portland yesterday and will
look after the repairs to the craft. In
an interview Mr. Rodgers gave some in
terestlng data in regard to the manner
in which affairs are conducted on Puget
Bounri. and principally in connection with
wrecking Jobs. Mr. Rodgers is well
versed in steamship affairs. He was su
perintendent of the Bremerton yards for
six years and only recently left the em
ploy of Moran Brothers, In Seattle. Mr.
Rodgers said:
"Puget found Arms formed a combine
with the intent to gouge the owners of
the Beechley on the repair work. Before
bids were tendered the dock rates were
advanced from 6 cents to 15 cents a ton,
nil firms standing in. and a working day
limit of 10 hours placed on the contractor
securing the Job. This would have made
the dock days run in excess of six weekR.
.'ot only American firms were in the
deal, but representatives of the dock at
Ksnuimalt were also in, and the bids ran
from KP.OOO to Mo.OOO.
"Al Kelly, representing the Puget Sound
Shipbuilding Company, was outside , the
dock combine and he communicated with
the Port of Portland before sending In
a bid. The difference was approximately
J14.X. and he placed a bid for the re
pairs at S24.8TO. Puget Sound firms fig
ured 40 days' time for the work. At the
rate charged it would mean $762.20 for the
first day and J571.65 for each lay day. The
charges on the Portland dock are $200
a day flat rate. In addition the appli
ances for delivering material are better
here than on Puget Sound.
"At first the owners were adverse to
awarding the contract to Kelly. The sur
veyors had forwarded the information to
the owners that repairs would cost $30,000.
Kelly's bid was below that by a round
sum. I was ordered to Portland to in.
spect the dock. I will confess that I was
prejudiced against the Portland dock
owing to stories set afloat In Seattle re
garding the condition of the plant. After
a thorough examination I wired my nrm
No etter dock on the Coast beside
Hunter's Point." "
On Piiget Sound the drydocks are at
Inaccessible places and contractors are
forced to supply employes with meals.
On a Job like the Beechley this item
would run In excess of 3Hi0. The 10-hour
r-lan also worked a hardship on the con
tractors. In the Portland dock they are
at liberty to work 24 hours and it is es
timated that the work will be completed
In less than 30 days.
It is Interesting to note that by add
ing the difference in the drydock charges
to the bid of Mr. Kelly the, total will be
approximately the same as the bids re
ceived from the Seattle and Victoria
firms for the work.
Mr. Rodgers is very specific in his
statements regarding the action of the
Sound men. "It was a cold-blooded ileal
and the object was to rob the owners
of the Beechley. Kelly was too smart
for them. I nad a bid In and I must ad
mlt that Kelly had it all. over me."

TRAFFIC MEN IN
PORTLAND TODAY
Delegates to National Conven
tion Will Be Guests of
Local Railroaders.
THREE HUNDRED IN PARTY
Visitors Will Be Given Trolley Ride
Throughout City and Formally
Entertained at Commer
cial Club Parlors.
Portland is all ready to welcome the
traveling; passenger agents of the
country who reach this city today from
the annual convention in Seattle. They
will arrive by. special train this morn
ng at 6 o'clock, and will be given a
hearty reception. It is expected that
fully 30 traffic agents and their wives
will be guests of the city today and
tomorrow.
Portland is always glad of an oppor
tur.itv to greet the members of the
American Association of Traveling
Passenger Agents. This body worked
hard for the success of the Lewis and
Clark Fair and It is said to be due in
no small part to the work of the ticket
agents that the Exposition proved such
a great success. Portland people have
not forgotten the good work of the
association and are eager to show their
appreciation.
i
Helifrd Make Fair Success.
In fact so great was the influence
of the passenger agents in routing
travel this way during the Fair year
that the management of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Exposition recognized
how much the traffic-getters could help
that exposition, and secured this year s
convention for the Puget Sound City
largely on that account. Although the
Seattle fp.ir is not yet complete, the
passenger agents were shewn tne
grounds and the buildings so far com
pleted. The scope and purposes, of the
fair were explained to them so they
gained a complete understanding of
the exposition and will be able to direct
travel this way intelligently.
Much good is expected to result from
this year's convention of the traffic
agents in bringing a very heavy travel
to the Coast during next year, when
the fair Is in session. This movement
of tourists will not help Seattle alone,
but will be of great benefit to' the en-
Ire Pacific Northwest and Portland
will undoubtedly reap as much good
from this movement as Seattle.
At any rate the delegates to. the
convention will leave Portland with
good impressions of this city. They
will be met at the train upon their ar
rival here and escorted to the Cornelius
Hotel, which will be headquarters for
them while in the city. At 10A. M.
here will be a trolley ride about the
city, taking in the principal points of
Interest. The cars will leave Park
and Morrison streets at that hour. At
noon tnc cars win return to tne busi
ness center of the city.
Greeting by Women's Club.
A delegation of members of the Port
land Women's Club will meet the
women of the party at 2 o'clock this
afternoon at the Cornelius Hotel and
escort them to the Oaks, where they
will be entertained during the after
noon. This jaunt is given with the
compliments of the Portland Railway,
Light & Power Company. The male
members of the excursion requested
that no entertainment be provided for
them this afternoon, but that they be
left free to visit their fellow-railroaders
In the city and become better ac
quainted. From 8 to 11 P. M. tonight there will
be a reception for the visitors at the
rooms of the Portland Commercial Club.

Tomorrow promises to be a gala day
for the visitors. They will be given
an excursion up the Columbia River by
The Da if eg. Portland & Astoria Navi
gation Company, in connection with the
railroad companies centering at Port
land. The steamer Bailey Gatzert will
be boarded at the Alder-street dock at
8:30 A. M. and Cascade Locks will be
th. objective point of the excursion.
The return to Portland will be made
at 4:30.
After that the passenger agents will
scatter to their headquarters through
out the country. The entertainment
offered them here will be a fitting
finale to the 'annual convention and
the trip up the Columbia Gorge will
leave a lasting impression with them.
B. S. JOSSELYX WILL GO EAST
Directors to Inspect Plans for Port
land's Underground System.
Complete plans of Portland's under
ground wire and cable system will be
taken East by President Behage S. Jos-
elyn, of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power Company, this week and submitted
to the Eastern directors of the corporation
for their approval. Mr. Josselyn will leave
Portland Saturday morning for New
York and Philadelphia. He 'Expects to
secure the approval of the Eastern cap
italists who own the property, so that
work on the underground conduit. sys
tem in the business district may go for
ward within a short time after his re
turn.
The underground system to be in
stalled here means the expenditure of
1.2o0,000. and involves the installation
of new machinery at the various sub
stations to handle the hew system of
distribution. The change also means a
reduction in the voltage of the cur
rent fed into the various motors about
the city, in accordance with the require
ments of the fire-insurance underwriters.
President Josselyn will accompany his
son and daughter to St. Louis, where
they will enter school for the Winter.
He will also stop at Clinton, Mo., where
he will participate in the reunion to be
held by the former employes of the
Kansas City, Osceola & Southern Rail
road, 'known as the "Blair Line." which
was sold to the Frisco system ten years
ago. Mr. Josselyn was general man
ager of the line. The reunion of the
former officials of the road is the first
to be held.

These cars are the Union avenue lines.

QUESTION ABOUT DEEDS
Claim Made That It Was Xot Law
ful to Give Confirmatory
Deed to the Property
Applicants.
Governor Chamberlain and Attorney
General Crawford testified before Judge
Bronaugh In the (Circuit Court yesterday
In the suit of E. B. Watson against M
B. Rankin, O. M. Rankin and John H,
Rankin to obtain $10,600 attorney's fees,
Watson alleges that he acted as attor
ney for Rankin in securing for the latter
8000 acres of timber land In townsnip g.
south of ranees 2 and S. east of W 111am
ette meridian. M. B. Rankin and Steph
en A. D. Puter filed upon the land about
the same time. Rankin believing that he
had a prior claim. The State Land Board
awarded the title to Puter. He trans
ferred it to the Abioua Land Company,
the latter to the Commercial Trust Com
pany, and Rankin finally purchased It
from that firm.
Both the Governor and the Attorney-
General were asked to tell of the State
Land Board's action. The Governor said
that there was some question about the
title to the land, but that the state had no
evidence. He said that the Puter faction
was willing to pay $20,000 for a confirma
tory deed, and that the state was willing to
accept the offer rather than take the
chance of losing in a lawsuit,' aitnougn ne
added that the state was willing to prose
cute if Rankin or his attorney brought
forward the evidence. The Governor also
said that the board refused to give any
body a preference right to the land, even
though Mr. Rankin promised that he
would furnish facts for the legal battle.
"If there was any fraud about the
transaction," said the Governor, "Mr.
Rankin knew more about it than anybody
else."
Thf Attorney-General said that he sent
a telegram to the West Coast Timber
Company at the request of Rankin, made
through Attorney Watson. This telegram
informed the company that the State in
tended to start a suit to cancel the title
to the 8000 acres, then held by Puter, and
warning the timber firm not to purchase
the land. Regarding the reason for .the
abandonment of the case he said that the
only evidence lacking was that which
would connect the Abiqua Land & Timber
Company with the alleged fraud.
Mr. Crawford said that Charles Moore,
ex-State Treasurer, was then a member
of the Land Board.
We concluded," he continued, "that it
was not lawful to give a confirmatory
deed. We thought that if we had infor
mation of fraud it was our duty to prose
cute. I urged Mr. Rankin's attorneys to
bring forward the evidence, but none was
ever furnished except that sent in a few
affidavits. Somebody, I don't remember
who. had a bill prepared for presentation
to the 1907 Legislature, authorizing the Is
suance of a confirmatory deed as soon as
the $20,000 was paid over."
Watson contends that he has earned his
$10,000 fee. Rankin says the attorney came
to him with the statement that he could
bring about a cancellation of Puter's
title. Rankin asserts that he bargained
to pay the fee if ffe secured title to the
land from the state, but if the suit against
Puter failed that Watson was to receive
nothing. He says that he was obliged to
pay more for the land In purchasing it
from the Commercial Trust Company than
he would in acquiring it from the Govern
ment, and that Watson had nothing to do
with the purchase.

Even though your case may be one that some
other doctor is able to cure, and though his cure
be absolutely thorough and permanent, there is
yet good cause for your coming to me for treat
ment. The service I render is entirely unlike
and better than the ordinary. I have devised
new and scientific methods of treating men's
diseases in ali their phases. I cure cases that
others cannot cure, and ,casee 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.

The vast multitude of men who have taken
my treatment have not been disappointed. They

to cure as it is that my patient engages my
services and follows my directions. My suc
