have loaded at. Portland within the last
two years. Chartering of grain vessels
for new crop has been slow. At San
Francisco. Puget Sound ports and In the
Columbia River are a number of disen
gaged ships awaiting charter, but to
date there has been no tendency on the
part of owners and exporters to get to
gether. Spot ships will probably hold
out until the first cargoes of the season
begin to move. The country Is clean of
old crop and there will be no off-shore
movement until late In August or early
In September. Of the fleet now en route,
the majority will not be due before Oc
tober. Cement and general cargo will be
brought on many of the vessels now on
the list. The two German craft and one
or two of the Frenchmen will come in
ballast. The Cornll Bart is now headed
Tor Hobart, Tasmania, and on arrival
at the Island port will receive orders to
proceed to Portland. The Frieda will
come by way of Honolulu and the Lls

PROSPECTS FOR HIGH WATER
Possibilities Increase With Cool Wea
ther Much Snow in Hills.
."MnJ,nUed co1 watnr brings the pos
sibilities of a flood In June. Both the
weather man and the "oldest inhabitant"
combine in the prediction of a flood that
will rival that of 1H unless the weather
warms up and allows a part of the water
to run off.
Reports received at the Weather Bu-
q?J,.ye.terlav from the Snak River
Station In Yellowstone Park give, on
March 1. 103 inches of snow at the 7000
foot elevation and 130 inches in the sur
rounding canyons. It is impossible to
compare this with conditions existing at
this time in ISM. as the snow fall was
not measured until after the flood of that

THE MORNING
HEARING
SOON
Effect of Harriman Merger on
Competition to Be Probed.
SLEUTH WORKS SECRETLY
Petectlve of Interstate Commerce
Commission Is Here Gathering
Evidence, but Is Cover
ing Movements.
Further hearings on the Harriman
merger will be held at Portland, it is be
lieved, with the next few weeks. Port
land shippers will have another oppor
tunity to testify before the commission
on the effect of the merger, and may
tell their experience in dealing with the
road both before and after the merger be
tween the Southern Pacific and 0.s R.
& N. '
Ralph M. McKenzie. the official scout
of the Interstate Commerce Commission,
is in Portland quietly accumulating evi
dence that is presumably to be used in
the forthcoming hearing. He has been
in the city for the past few days, but has
been keeping his presence here a secret.
Meanwhile he has been doing some sleuth
work about town In trying to unearth ad
ditional facts Intended to show that the
merger of the two Harriman railroads
has destroyed competition in this terri
tory in handling the business of this ter
ritory and is a combination in restraint of
trade that violates the Sherman anti
trust law.
The utmost secrecy Is . maintained by
Mr. McKenzie as to his movements and
his purpose in visiting the city. How
ever. It has leaked out that he is here
and is seeking additional evidence in the
merger case. Railroad men expect, in
view of his visit, that a further hearing
will be held in this city before members
of the Interstate Commerce Commission
within a short time.
Mr. McKenzle's official title Is' special
agent of the Department of Justice. He
is the man who gathered evidence from
shippers here two years ago on the same
subject and his visit was followed by the
hearing in the Federal courtroom be
fore Commissioner Severance, of the In
terstate Commerce Commission. This
hearing lasted several days and a large
number of shippers and railroad men
were brought before Mr. Severance and
testified in regard to traffic conditions
in the territory and how it was affected
by the merging of the Harriman lines
Some witnessses testified that competi
tion was wholly destroyed by the alliance
of the two roads, while others, including
railroad officials, maintained that com
petition of the most active kind-still ex
ists, despite the merger.
If Mr. McKenzie is unsuccessful in dig
ging up any new evidence here it is
probable no hearing will be held. Other
wise, the official investigation will un
doubtedly be made within the coming few
weeks.
HARRIMAN PETITION GRANTED
System Relieved of Effects of Deci
sion in Spokane Rate Case.
The petition of the Harriman lines to
the Interstate Commerce Commission to
be relieved of the effects of the recent
decision in the Spokane rate case, as
applied to the Union Pacific and O. R. &
N. system, has been granted by the com
mission as regards traffic between St.
Paul and Spokane. In regard to rates
between Chicago and Spokane, a further
hearing will be held and arguments on the
subject will be heard. This has been set
for April 26 at Washington.
The commission decided that the rates
ordered into Spokane from the Middle
West in its recent decision should not
apply to the Harriman lines, because of
which the expectant niother must pass, however, is so fraught with

NEW THEORY SPREADS
RAPIDLY OVER COUNTRY
. i
Colorado Woman Gives Reasons for
Her Abiding Faith in Cooper.
L. T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach, is being given more
respect and comment every day.
Cooper claims that 70 per cent of all
ill health is due to stomach trouble.
When interviewed about his theory re
cently, he said: "Stomach trouble is the
great curse of the 20th century so far
as the civilized races are concerned.
Practically all of the chronic 111 health
of this generation is caused by abnormal
stomachic conditions. In earlier days,
when the human race was closer to
nature, and men and women worked
all day out of doors, digging their
frugal existence from the soil, the tired,
droopy, half-sick people that are now
so common, did not exist. .
"To be sure, there was sickness In
those days, but it was of a virulent
character, and only temporary. There
was none of this half-sick condition all
the time with which so many are afflicted-
now-a-days.
"I know positively that every bit of
this chronic ill health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
in civilized people today is degenerate.
It lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness, has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. I further know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus in perfect shape.
The sole reason for my success Is be
cause my New Discovery medicine tones
the stomach up to required strength in
about six weeks' time. That is why I
have had more people come and thank
me wherever I have gone to introduce
my medicine, than I have had time to
talk with."

the greater mileage of the, Union Pacific
to Spokane from St. Paul in comparison
with the Hill roads. This does not mean,
however, that the Harriman lines will not
make the reduced rates determined by
the commission as equable. They will
put them into effect in order to get their
share of the business but the- difference
will be that they will make the rates of
their own accord Instead of being forced
to put them Into effect.
Portland attorneys for the Harriman
lines will undoubtedly attend the hearing
at Washington, although just who will
make the argument .has not been an
nounced. W. W. Cotton will probably
handle the matter in person.
North Bank Road In Good Shape..
Superintendent Russell, of the Spokane.
Portland & Seattle Railway, returned
yesterday from Spokane, where he went
In company with Francis B. Clarke, presi
dent of the road, to look over the new
line prior to starting operation to Spo
kane from Portland. Mr. Russell says the
road is in good operating condition be
tween Portland and Marshall Junction, a
distance of 370 miles. From Marshall
Junction to Spokane, a distance of seven
miles, the Northern Pacific track will be
used by the new road until its own track
is laid between the two points. President
Clarke will probably return to his of
fices from Spokane today. New locomo
tives ordered by the North Bank road
are arriving and will be put in shape for
work by May 3, the date the Portland
Spokane service will, start. Schedules are
now being made up.

i Be i.ate Captain JSoruian Harvest
was held yesterday afternoon at Dun

Rev. A. Dalrymple, of the Seaman's In
stitute, conducted the services, which
were - attended by friends and members
of the St. George Society. Captain Har
vey went to sea with his father when he
was but six years of age, and for 28 years
was captain of various vessels. He was
born In Edinburgh. Scotland. April 25.

vey, member of the Parliament of Ber
muda, and also a sailor. His brother,
who survives him. is Dr. Elden Harvey,
also a member of the Parliament of Ber
muda, and was surgeon for the Oriental
& Occidental Steamship Company of San
Francisco.

life, which extended for more than half
a century. He commanded the Arminta,
a merchant ship running between New
York and Liverpool, In which he was an
owner, and was in command of sailing
vessels during the Civil War, when he
bad many narrow escapes from capture.

In Cooper's theory and medicine is
Mrs. Julia Hof flicker, living at 810
Ussle avenue. Canon City. Colo. Mrs.
Hoffllcker says:
"For seven years I suffered from in
digestion and stomach trouble. I was
subject to frequent attacks of severe
sick headache. I had to be very par
ticular as to the kind of food I ate.
I could not eat vegetables of any kind,
nor anything sweet; and even then I
would be in distress after meals. Any
food of a solid nature caused a feeling
of heaviness after eating.
"I tried everything I could hear of,
and took many different remedies with
out benefit. Finally I heard of the
Cooper remedies and obtained a treat
ment of Cooper's New Discovery.
"I never in my life found a medicine
so helpful. The first bottle put my di
gestive organs into good condition, al
laying the pain in my stomach as well
as relieving the severity of the head
aches to a very large extent. Since
taking a thorough course, of this medi
cine my trouble has entirely disap
peared, headaches and all, and I never
felt better In my life.
"I would not be without' Cooper's
New Discovery 'in my house. Anyone
who is suffering in any way from stom
ach trouble should not hesitate In giv
ing it a trial."
The Cooper remedieare sold by all
druggists everywhere. "A sample bottle
