MANY PREPARE TO

European Travel Will Be Heavy
This Year, According to
All Indications.
BIG CROWD FROM OREGON
Railroad Officials Say That Local
Booking's for Steamer Sailings of
First-Clap? Will Be Numerous
During Coming Summer.
I

The wave of European travel has "et
in from Portland stronger than ever this
year. Last year, owing to the temporary
financial stringency, many foreigners re
turned home, where they could live
cheaper till labor conditions became bet
ter. This year steerage traffic Is absent.
flrst-cla.s Is considerable, while the bulk
Is of second cabin passages by water
From figures supplied by local railroad
offices It appears that European travel
from the Northwest is composed larg-ly of
Oregon residents who have saved sums of
from 500 to $1000. "People aren't sat
isfied unless they give their monev to the
railroads." said one railroad official, "and
that Is why so many of them are invest
ing In European travel this Siimm-r. Be
a4a that, the 'see America first' line of
argument is receiving strong support from
many of the folk with money to burn "
lespite many statements to the con
trary, it appears that Liverpool still has
the hold on the majority of the voyagers
The running of the fast cracks. Lusltanla
and Mauritania, as well as the new
Titanic and her sister boat ha.-, done much
to retain the great port as the favorite
first place of call. Liverpool's central
position possibly has accounted for fully
40 per cent of the travelers purchasing
direct to the original home of the "Liver
bird.
After Liverpool. Hamburg receives 50
per cent of the traffic, and Scandinavia Is
making almost as good a showing. The
trench lines take almost as much and
the balance goes to Belfast. Cork and
Mediterranean ports.
At least 260 direct bookings to the Con
tinent have been made by the railroad of
fices In Portland during the first three
weeks of May. Expectations are the next
three weeks will be busier, and after then
the rush will be over, higher rates will
Prevail for the ocean voyage and ther
wUl be a falling off in the number of
pleasure-seekers.
It is believed both the A-T-P and the
Rose Festival have had a slightly re
straining Influence, hut this has " been
more that travelers have been restrained
from traveling by the expected In
flux of friends and relatives from the
taat.
In addition to Europe, passages are being
booked to the Bermudas and Cuba, prac
tically for the first time from Portland,
with the opportunities the local railroad
offices have for reserving steamer ac
commodation, there is a strong leaning
toward booking a through or round-trip
ticket to the Continent, the different pas
sages being on different routes The
withdrawal of the reduced rate on round
trip tickets by the steamship lines has
led to commission being lost by local of
fices, which counteracts this. Travelers
have shown a preference to spend the
passage money abroad if they are unable
to obtain any reduction.
CAJT-T I0 IT, SAYS SCOTT
Harriman Orficlal Discusses Plan to
Solve Gateway Trouble.
According to a Seattle newspaper In an
interview with J. R. Nagel. traveling
passenger agent for the Union Pacific
the statement was made that the O. r!
& N. proposed to ameliorate conditions of
passengers and baggage traveling through
Portland to Puget gound. John M Hcort
was reported to be working on a scheme
necessitating the boarding of incoming
trains with employee who would check
baggage for passengers. This plan Is
declared to be. quite unfeasible, and Mr
Scott yesterday wished to deny the reZ
port. He said he had heard from Mr
.agel that the Interview was incorrect
he was misquoted and the suggestion
regarding the baggage arose with the
Interviewer. Mr. Jaott said the O. R. Sc
. would do everything possible, but he
feared the baggage system could not be
changed.
Dredge Boschke Launched.
The launching of the dredge Bosclike
at Oakland a few days ago was discussed
in several railroad offices yesterdav. The
dredge embodies many patents held by
the fativer of Engineer Boschke of the
O. R. & X. Mr. Boschke has a. tfcoro
interest in the dredge, which can cut out
a. channel 200 feet wide. Mr. Boschke is
also the holder of several patents Im
proving the usual type of dredge.
C. & A- Officials Here.
A visitor on Railroad Row vf.ster.lay
was R. J. McKay, first assistant-general
passenger agent of the Toledo St
Louis & Western, as well as of the Chi
cago &. Alton road at Chicago. Mr. Mc
Kay arrived on his tour from San Fran
cisco and was accompanied by A D
.Stewart, district freight and passenger
agent ior the allied roads at Sao Pran
clco. Bridae Free From Danger.
Every danger from possible Sprfcg
floods has been averted at the new
Southern Pacific bridge at Oswego. The
East Side pier is now ten feet above the
water line and Chief Engineer Boschke,
of the Harriman lime, believes that It
will be Impossible for the river to stop
further construction work.
Grading Work Started.
According to Chief Engineer Boschke
of the Harriman lines in the Northwest,
grading has been started from Buckleys
on the O. R. At N. along the proposed
route of the Lake Creek Ac Coeur d'Alene
Railroad. As was recently announced in
The Orcgonlan. the line extends from
Buckleys to Coeur d'Alene.

lnnnejr was In court on a charge of
maintaining a house of Ill-fame In con
nection with his saloon. Ann Frederick
m In conrt charred with being his ac
complice. There was insufficient evidence
against Denney to warrant his conviction
on that precise charge, although his ac
complice was fined OM. Judge Van Zante
said he was morally certain of the d've
keeper"s guilt, but that he would have to
dismiss him in the face of the testimony
presented.
Another echo from the half world, re
cently abolished by the Mayor, was heard
when the case of Mlnno Rayno. a French
woman, wa called for trial. She runs a
cigar stand in North Portland. The
stand is a small affair, hut behind It are
spacious apartments. The police have
long wondered what was back there. The
other day Patrolman Ackerman broke
In and found out. The woman wma ac
cordingly in court on the same charge
as was the Madison-street dive proprie
tor. A. Bettre, who was arrested wit h
the woman, made a full statement as to
the character of the house. The woman
was held under a bond of Jim.

entirely authoritative, aa they were fur
