SIMON WILL USE HIS VETO After llcarinjr Executive's Views Delegation From Civic Bodies Would Take Scheme Out of His and Council's Hands. CONFERENCE ON TUBI-IC DOCKS. Contention, of Ivk Adwalw. It Is Imperative that the port shall have public dock facilities. Now Is the time to invest $500. 00O in property; the Administration should do as much as possible with this amount, then aslt more. Railroad interests are trying to shut out municipal ownership to con trol situation. The peopte will have to elect a dock commission, which will pro ceed IT the Mayor and Council do not do so. It is the Mayor's duty to approve ordinance to sell the bonds. Mayor Simon's Objections. It fs not proper to start a great project involving; millions with 500, 000. No definite plan has been outlined and no one knows what site could be had or what it would cost. It is a poor time to sell bonds, even were everything else all right. A wrangling City Council never would select a site. Advts&blity of proceeding doubt ful until people have another oppor tunity to declare whether, in the light of vents, they want to invest a vast fortune In municipal docks. Kailine- to convince Mayor Simon that he should approve the ordinance calling for the sale of $500,000 public dock bonds, the Joint committee of the Cham ber of Commerce and the Taxpayers' Ueasrue yesterday afternoon told him that they- will initiate a movement to rreate a public docks commission, "which will fulfill the will of the peo ple. If the Mayor and City Council will not." This pleases the Mayor. Mayor Simon told the members of tfie committee very frankly that he will veto the ordinance: that he has gone Into the subject carefully and that he is satisfied it is his plain duty to dis approve of the measure for several good reasons. He said that he is not en thusiastic on public ownership, any way, but that in this case he has other reasons for refusing to sanction the flock scheme as It Is now put up to him tor approval by the Qity Council. Bond Market Off, Says Mayor. The Mayor declared to the commit tee that it is a bad time to sell bonds now, as the market Is glutted and slug- ttlsh; that the Council has not worked out a tangible plan for procedure, and that, should the bonds be sold, it would mean that the money would lie in the treasury and draw interest; .that a site could not well be selected by the City Council, as has been proved In the past, when the members tried for years to determine upon a crematory and for City Jail site; in both cases they failed miserably and would do the same in this Instance, if they had a chance. "My experience with the Council,' said Mayor Simon, "is that it will not select a site for a public dock for long time; that out of the eight mem bers who have voted for the sale of the bonds there will be eight different views. I take this from the fact that the Council wrangled for years over the question of a crematory site, without results; that when we wanted a site for a new City Jail they were unable to decide upon any location, and we finally had to accept the offer of th County Court to use the new Court house." , Rushlight Interposes. "I will tell you what I will do." in terjected Councilman Rushlight, ad dressing the Mayor, 'if the bonds are sold; I will vote for any proper loca tion you may select." "Yes." quickly replied the Mayor, "any 'proper location: the proper loca tlon would be construed rn a dozen wavs by as many Councilmen, and we would get nowhere." After going over their ground as carefully as possible and stating their case very clearly from their point of view. th members of the committee failed to make any favorable impres ton upon Mayor Simon, and he as cured them he will veto the ordinance under discussion. The committee was composed of William MacMaster, pres ident of the Chamber of Commerce; J X. Teal. H. M. Haller. F. W. Mulkey and C. F. Adams. Councilmen Wallace Lombard and Rushlight were present but not as members of the commit tee. MacMa.sler Speaks. President MacMaster opened the sub Ject by saying that the newspapers had published statements as to tne Mayor's intention of vetoing the ordi nance and said the committee wished to inform him as to their attitude on the question in the hope of changing his mind, if it were true lie intended to veto the measure. He said that Mr. Teal would speak on the subject, and Mr. Teal proceeded. Mayor Simon ob served that he would be glad to have a full and frank discussion. Mr. Teal said the city was in great need of a public dorks system, and must sooner or later have docks munici pally owned for the accommodation of the steamship companies "which will wish to operate in Portland. He de clared that the study he had made of this question, after personal inspection of the docks of numerous American and foreign cities, had convinced him that It Is Imperative that the city shall have its own wharves. He said the railroad interests have purchased much waterfront and are holding it firmly, with no desire or intention whatever of releasing it, as they realize its great value. Opportunity Slipping By. Mr. Teal emphasised the point that, unless the municipal government quick ly acquires what it needs for docks, the opportunity will be gone; It .will cost more .when the city does try to mirchase and that, meanwhile, great loss is being suffered by reason of the lack of proper shipping facilities. Mavor Simon called attention to the fact that. In his Judgment and In the judgment of others well Informed. $500,000 will make little headway, and Councilman Lombard said that he pu chased the Irving dock for $125,000, and is now offered $200,000 for it; that, in his opinion, a good site can toe pur chased north of the Steel bridge for $200,000 and that a concrete dock could be built for $300,000, making much use of the bond Issue. .Lombard Questioned. Mayor Simon then asked Mr. Lom bard where he would select a site, and proceeded to refresh his memory as to the useless wrangle of the Council on other public projects, to show that, should the matter be left with the Council it would come to nothing, as the Council fought over the crematory site four years and did nothing defi nite, he explained. The Mayor then proceeded to slate his serious objection, and he refused to listen to the declarations of the va rious members of the committee that, the people having voted the bonds. It is his business to blindly follow or ders, with no plan whatever In out line. "I seriously question whether the people would again order public docks, were the question put up to them," declared the Mayor. "Whn they voted on this Issue I am confident they did not fully realize what It meant: I be lieve It would be better to go before the people with a full explanation of the project and ask them to vote again; If they want the docks, ask them to vote enough funds to handle this proj ect properly. I am convinced that the city cannot operate docks at a profit, but there may be indirect benefits; I am not discussing the dock question on this basis, but simply as to the ordi nance now before me, and my oDjec- tions to it are on the ground that It Is an inopportune time to take up the question and that we have not enough funds with which to proceed properly with the construction of a dock sys tem." Mayor Simon has several propositions from real estate dealers for sites on the riverfront, and he declared to the committee and Councilmen that, should the bonds be sold, every one of these men wtll have their friends at work in the Council and a long wrangle will ensue, with the probable result that nothing will be done. 'I must say, then. concluded Air. Teal, as the committee was about to leave the Mayor's office, "that the only thing left to do, if the Council sus tains your veto, is to initiate an amend ment to the charter calling for a pub lic docks eommission. to uo what you and the Council refuse to do." 'That would be a good way to do, replied the Mayor. BUYERS HOLDING BACK UNCERTAINTY AS TO PRICES CHECKS TRADE ACTIVITY. Weather Has Also Been Unfavorable for Distribution Conditions in the Iron and Steel Market. NEW YORK. May 13. Bradstreefs to morrow will say: Trade is quiet as a whole, unfavorable weather, the Indefinite crop outlook ana uncertainty as to prices of merchandise all tending to retard distributive demand both wholesale and retail. Trade reports from the West note a quiet to fair trade at retail, while Jobbing business has been largely confined to fill-in orders and Fall trade is reported back ward, though perhaps equal to anything at this dave- Among' toe Industries, one or tne Dest lines is building, which shows next to the largest monthly expenditure for April second. Indeed, only to May. 1909, and al lied lines all show good conditions. In the iron and steel trade, furnace production is still being decreased and Western reports from the finished lines are or lower quota tions being offered. It is significant that manufacturers this week have bought more freely of raw wool and at concessions than for a long time past. Collections reflect the influence of retarded Spring trade In reports of only fair to slow payments. -Land speculation at the West has received a check in the higher rates being exacted for loans. Business failures in the fsuted States for the week ending May 12 were 216 against 191 last week: 224 In like week of 1909; vi Has- 194 in 1907. and 161 In 190S. Business failures In Canada for the week were 27 against 18 last week and 30 In the same week last year. Wheat (Including flour) exports from the I'nited States and Canada for the week end . -Mnv 12 aggregate 2.933.538 bushels, against 1.854.070 last week and 1.239.900 this -alr iRjtt vear. For the 45 weeks ending May 12. exports are 127.019,045 bushels against 153,217,164 In the same period last year, IKON AND BTEEL TRADE CONDITIONS. More Business In Finished Products Than In Pig Iron. NEW YORK. May 13. R. G. Dunn & Co.'s weekly review of trade tomorrow will Bay: Little business has developed in pig iron although in certain directions more inquiries are noted. consumers generally delay Im portant purchases for forward delivery be cause of uncertainty regarding prices. Var ious wage advances have increased pro ducers' costs and. not unnaturally, further concessions are not readily granted. The leaalng - interest has still further curtailed blast furnace operations, now having about 30 stacks idle, and It Is estimated that stocks are decreasing at the rate of approximately 25.000 tons weekly. Specifications on fin ished products are heavier, with a consid erable inquiry from the railroads, yet ac tual orders are not large. Quietness pervades the dry goods markets, orders being of a hand-to-mouth character all along the line, but anticipation of de liveries on some lines of Fall cottons is noted. the advance business booked by Jobbers being exceptionally good. Woolens and worsteds are quiet. Yarns show a little more movement at a sacrifice on costs. Immediate trading in boots and shoes is quiet, but the business now placed shows a decided gain over several months ago, and shipments continue to increase. The market for hides shows even more dullness this week than last and sales of domestic packer and country hides are few and . scattered. Prices are irregular. Bank Clearings. NEW YORK, May 13.

JETTY NEEDS LAMPS," TOO Danger Signals and Lights for Large Part of - Oregon Coast in Xeed of Change for Better. More modern and effective lighthouse and jetty lights are being demanded by" the people of Bandon and vicinity for the bar of the Coquille River, and they have prepared a petition which will be for warded at an early date directly to Washington, asking the Government for the proposed Improvements. H. D. Parsons, captain of .the steamer Newport, which arrived Thursday after noon from Coquille, explained yesterday the demands of the people of that place and Incidentally told how much the larg er part -of the Oregon coast is in need of better lights and foghorns. The pehltion prepared by the Bandon people asks for the removal of- the pres 6TE.V51KK INTELLIGENCE. One to Arrive. Nam. From. Date. Rygja ..Otaru In port Breakwater. A Coos Bay. ...

In addition to this, the people want at least twelve 60-candle lights placed along tne Jetty at the entrance of the river. that ships may enter at night for refuge or for commercial purposes. Until recently the people at the harbor of Coquille have been content to do with the old appliances, but now the Idea of better commerce, both with this port and San Francisco, has caused a desire for improvements. The coal mines on the Coquille River give promise of excellent returns, in case sufficient commercial facilities are pro vided, and this is one cause for the pres ent effort to improve the lights at the bar and to make commerce more avail able. ' Captain Parsons believes that the Gov ernment will find it necessary at an early date to revise it lights and fog signals along much of the Oregon coast. In speaking of this yesterday -he said: "It was only a few years ago that there was but little sea commerce to Portland, and the Government at that time installed its lights and danger sig nals In accordance with tne limited re quirements. -But -these have gone out of date, and the ships that are constantly coming and going between Portland and other points along the coast have in creased (wonderfully. 'We should have better coajst lights and signals now to meet with the conditions For instance, there is at the present time no aid to navigation between Tillamook Head and Cape Arago, a distance of ap proximately 126 miles. -What is needed most tire foghorns. There should be in stalled foghorns at Cape Lookout, at Taquina and various other places on the Oregon coast. One thing that should receive) special attention from the Government is the light at Heceta Head. The light appears only once in every two minutes, and this is not frequent enough, especially when there is shifting fogs or mlsta." CREW IS NOT REIMBURSED Government Fails to 'Pay Man- zanlta's Men for I-rosses. Following the published announce ment yesterday morning to the effect that the Port of Portland would pay the Government $10,700 as a result of the damage done the lighthouse tender Manzanita. when the latter collided with a dredger on the Columbia River October, 1906, inquiry was made re garding what the crew would get for their losses, and It was found that no provision has yet been made for re imbursing them for their personal ef fects which went down with the Man zanita at that time. When the Manzanita went down, she was carrying 24 officers and men. All their personal effects on the vessel were lost, and It Is understood that the Oregon delegation to Congress has promised to have them reimbursed, but that this has not been' done. The effects lost by the men on the Manzanita were valued at $1700, and unless Congress does something for them, the men will be forced to lose It all. It la possible that a bill will be passed by Congress appropriating from the money to be received from the Port of Portland, the amount due tUa crew of the Manzanita. BIO CONTRACTS EXPECTED Two Passenger Steamers Bnilt in Portland. May Be Bids for the building of two passen ger steamers, for Puget Sound are to be, submitted by lh Willamette Iron BAiilDOf et Steel Works, and the prospects for the work to come to Portland is ex cellent, according to statements made yesterday by the management of the firm. One of the vessels will cost in the vicinity of J120.000, and the other will be somewhat less, although the ap proximate cost is not known. B. C. Ball, manager of the ship building department of the "Willamette ron & Steel Works, went to beattie Monday to see about the plans and specification for ' the vessels, and re- urned Wednesday. The company s bid for the larger vessel will probably be forwarded to Seattle today. The first of the five steel barges' being constructed by the Willamette ron & Steel works, will be launcr.ea sometime today. It, and two of the others which will be completed later. will belong to the Columbia River Con tract Company, and will be used in hauling rock .to the Jetty. They each have a capacity or luuu tons. Newport Is Kept Busy. Promise of having all the freight she can handle is given the steamer Newport, which was recently put on the run be tween Portland and the Coquille River. The vessel came in Thursday afternoon loaded with various kinds of produce, and It was asserted yesterday that she will be unable to take away all the freight of fered her. After returning to (Bandon, the Newport will take a load of 300 head of beeves from there to Eureka, before re turning on another trip to Portland. Condor Due With Lumber. From Newport and Waldport with a cargo of lumber, the gasoline sloop Con dor is "due to arrive at Portland today. She will sail Tuesday for her home ports and later will come back here to go on the drydock for repairs. The repairs on the Condor are made necessary as a re sult of the recent accident in which she figured in Alsea Bay. Marine Notes. There will be a meeting of the State Board, of Pilot Commissioners some time next week at Astoria. By today the rise in the river will reach 19.6 feet, and according to the local weather office it will not change from that for a day or two. To complete taking on her cargo of lumber at that place, the British steamer Inverkip was shifted yesterday to the Portland Lumber Company from Inman- Poulsen's mills. Bringing 750 tons of freight, the larger part of iwhlch was from the Atlantic sea board and Europe, the steamer ralcon, coming directly from San Francisco, where she connects with the Panama steamers of the company, arrived in port yesterday. The schooner King Cyrus, which arrived in tiie river yesterday, will load lumber at Goble for San Pedro. The plan of having her put on the drydock here was changed, owing to the objections of the captain, who said she could go with her load south first. She will have her spars repaired at San Pedro before returning here for more lumber. Maverick Sends Wireless. i. 3. Maverick to Weather Bureau, Portland, Or. Maverick, oft Cape Arago, May 13, 1910.

These corpuscles are constantly forming in healthy systems by the extraction of nutriment from food eaten, and this nourishment is then supplied through the circulation to every portion of the system. Any system which does not receive the proper amount of blood nourishment is not prepared to withstand the countless disorders that assail It. Bad blood can not nourish the body, the circulation must be pure, rich and strong if we would enjoy good health. Bad blood manifests itself in various ways. With some it takes the form of skin diseases and eruptions, others become bilious and malarious, with sallow complexions, torpid liver, etc. If the germs and Impurities in the blood are of a more virulent nature then bad blood becomes morq serious and produces Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, and like troubles. Nothing equals S. S. S. for bad blood. It is Nature's own blood purifier, mads from roots, herbs and barks. It goes into the circulation and removes every im purity or poison, strengthens and enriches the blood, and in this way supplies tha body with the proper amount of nourishment to maintain good health. S. S. S. is likewise the finest of all tonics and while purifying the blood builds up every portion of the system. S. S.
