SNEW CRUISIXG TYPE LACXCHED Graham Turns Out Craft With Full Pilot-house Control. Seldon Murray has accepted from the Graham launch shops, at the foot of Mill street, a fulljtcabined cruiser, the Jtichard. which is rated one of the roomiest craft of her type on the river. She has a length of 52 feet and beam of 31 feet, and as she Is equipped with a 60-horsepower engine, six sylinders, she Is able to cruise wit's any of the heavy launches of the lower harbor. The craft lias a speed of 14 miles and her control Js confined to the pilot house, which Is en innovation In launch construction. Mr. Graham Is working on a "tunnel lioat," which is so constructed at the ftern that though she draws but 16 Inches of water her engine will drive a 22-inch propeller. N. A. Bacon is her owner and he intends to use her on Iewls River. She has a length of 36 feet and beam of eight feet. The big tender ordered for the Government dredge Chinook is also being built there. It will be 35 feet overall, have R beam of eight feet and 24-horsepower engine, four cylinder. 90.POISD TURTLE IS CAUGHT Iolphln Added to Menu on Big Steamer on Way to Port. Trolling for dolphin off the Gulf of Panama and hooking a turtle that .weighed 90 pounds, was sport indulged 3n by officers and men of the British steamer Coulsdon, which arrived up from Victoria Thursday night, and the shell, which they term the "ironclad," Is exhibited aboard the vessel. The Coulsdon Is here to load lumber Wit Inman-Poulson's for Shanghai, after e voyage from New York and Philadel phia to the Coast with railroad equip ment. She discharged steel rails for a Mexican line at Guaymas, cars for the Panama line at Buena Ventura, more material at Bahia de Caraquez and the remainder at Vancouver, for the Brit ish Columbia Electric Company. En .route she encountered a stiff blow oft he Pacific entrance to the Straits of Magellan, but otherwise had a smooth (voyage. Four of her crew were left at iVancouver, suffering from malarial lever, and as she Is to take on a bunker supply at Kanalmo, they will rejoin Jthen. 6PENCER TURNS TO GASOL.IXE Captain Will Be Skipper of Speedy Cruiser Just Launched. v Having figured for several seasons In races between stern-wheel carriers. Captain E. W. Spencer has turned his attention to motor craft and yesterday Ills latest acquisition, a 27-foot semi cruiser that is expected to exceed 25 miles an hour, was launched from the Curtis plant. The launch will be driven toy an 80-horsepower engine and there will be sufficient space for a number of passengers. The same firm has started eight tend ers for the Government Lighthouse De partment, for service in Alaskan waters, end early next month will launch a new tug for Captain Amos, owner of the Eva. The Oregon Yacht Club has or dered six dinghies from the Curtis shop, the type being something new in aquatic models, and they are destined for service with sails or oars. CEREALS BLAMED FOR DISEASE Coulsdon Has Seaman Suffering From Elephantiasis. Elephantiasis is the latest ailment to be introduced to the nautical world and the only known victim in port is an or dinary seaman aboard the British tramp Coulsdon, who was signed in New York In February. The effect of elephantiasis is to swell the Joints and is similar to scurvy. The Coulsdon s sailor is suffering from an enlarged ankle that has given him con siderable trouble, but is subsiding. The disease is said by the seamen to arise from an overindulgence In cereal foods, and they report that cases are common among Chinese crews, because of the amount of rice consumed. Bear Can Make Speedier Trip. That the run from Portland to As toria could be made with ease In five hours by the steamer Bear was stated , yesterday by her master. Captain No 4 uider, and he says she has made it in five hours and 35 minutes, but owing to the fact the regulations prohibit fast steaming In the harbor, and there is danger of damaging vessels berthed at doeks through the swells created, it is necessary for the big craft to-go under a slow bell to the mouth of the Willamette and she requires an hour to make that point. The steamer will sail this morning. She has 300 first class passengers listed. Hercules Arrives Ibsen to Depart. With about 2600 bales of grainbags, BOO tons of sulphur and considerable Chinese merchandise the Oriental liner Hercules arrived last night from the Far East, via San Francisco. She had 2000 tons in all, but discharged 900 tons at the Bay City. The Hendrlk Ibsen, which saiLs at noon today, cleared yesterday with a cargo valued at $106,764.56 and consisting principally of 15,972 barrels of flour, 984,974 feet of lumber, 750 tons of wheat, 50 bales of cotton bags and other packages.

Marine interests are manifesting con cern because of a bill that has passed both houses at Washington and Is thought about to be signed, providing for the reorganization of the lighthouse es tablishment on a basis that will authorize the appointment of an Army or Navy of ficer or civilian as inspector- of each dis trict for three years, and at the expira tion of that time the inspector must be a civilian. In a territory as large as the Thir teenth district it Is felt by shippers that it should be presided over by a naval officer, as it is generally assumed that an Army executive is. not familiar with navigation safeguards and comparatively few civilians are regarded as' fitted for the billet.

NUMBER OF TfMIS ALMOST DOUBLED Great .Increase Shown by Comparison With Figures of 18 Months Ago. THROUGH TRAVEL HEAVY Railroad Men Say Some Local Trains Are Run at I joss Travelers Be lieve New Business Is Be ing Developed Rapidly. Within 18 months passenger trains out of Portland have virtually doubled in number, and have doubled in equip ment and comforts. There were 24 passenger trains daily leaving Portland depots on January 1, 1909, exclusive of the electric lines, and 41 trains pulled out yesterday. This estimate does not make additional allowance for one train that pulled out in two sections. Just how important this increase has been is Indicated by the fact that in the preceding six months only one train was added to those leaving the Union Depot, although during that six months the North Bank: road opened for busi ness with two trains a day in each direction. The most remarkable Increase has been shown In the number of trains leaving the Union Depot. January 1, 1909, 18 trains pulled out for all points; yesterday there were 32. The Hoyt street depot has much more than dou bled as to the number of trains leav ing, seven trains departing yesterday, as compared with two 18 months previ ously. The Jefferson-street depot Is unchanged. Only two long-distance trains leave that depot dally. This does not include the Oswego locals. Seven Leave North Bank Depot. From the North Bank depot, in addi tion to the four fine North Bank daily trains, three Great Northern trains leave for Vancouver, B. C, making a total of seven dally. Eighteen months ago there were three Northern Pacific trains for Seat tle; yesterday there were ten trains, divided among the Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and the Oregon & Washington. There were then two daily trains to San Francisco; now there are three, and the time has been cut considerably. Spokane then had a service of three trains a day. Now it has five, and of those five three are crack trains, one being called the crack train of the Northwest. To Astoria there were two trains a day, to Seaside only one. Yes terday four trains pulled out for both points, and there were. In addition, two locals as far as Rainier. Thus on the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad the traffic has trebled. There were five trains to the East daily January 1, 1909. Now there are eight direct Eastern trains and four more that make connections, involving waits of less than an hour. Here the service has been doubled. There are now three trains daily on the Oregon & Washington. Then there were none. Now there are seven a day on the O. R. & N. ; then only four; then three on the NortlTern Pacific, now five; then nine on the Southern Pacific, now 11. There were no trains of the Great Northern; now there are four. ' Question: Is It. Overdone? With this large increase, railroad men are asking one question: Are there too many trains? The traveling public will insistently say no. It asserts that in place of waiting for the traffic, the railroads are now encouraging It by providing the trains. Those who travel insist that the. service will be followed by greater travel; that with greater com forts provided there Is . a greater anxiety to travel. On the other hand, railroad men assert that the trains to Seattle, for in stance, are being run at a loss. They say there are so many trains that no one train can pay expenses, and that a reduction in number is inevitable. With regard to the Eastern trains there is. unanimity. At rush times the accommodation is even now insuffi cient, while even when the traveling public most desires to stay at home, every Eastern train has sufficient patronage to warrant its place in the schedule. That the increased service has caused largely increased travel Is not questioned. In every way the roads are branching out. The electric lines are finding that the more trains they place on the run the heavier Is the traffic, and the steam lines are finding that the electric lines are reaching a new traveling public and "bringing it to the terminals, where It can with ease obtain transportation to other and more distant points. An appetite once aroused for traveling requires no whetting, say railroad men. BROAD-GAUGE SYSTEM BEGUN Permanent Tracks Are Now Being Laid on South East Side. The Portland Railway, Light & Power Company has started on its new broad gauge system in the South East Side and is relaying its tracks on Milwaukie street and Grand, avenue. A broad-gauge track has been laid on Division street, between East Eleventh and East Thirteenth streets and thence south to Clinton street, where broad gauge tracks will replace the present nar row tracks. This is the beginning of the work of changing the Waverly-Rlchmond and Woodstock branches to the Madison street bridge. On Milwaukie street a hard-surface pavement is to be laid be tween Division and Holgate streets, and the tracks are being relaid with heavy steel rails and bedded in concrete. On Grand avenue, where hard-surface pavement will be laid from East Clay to Ellsworth street, heavy steel rails are being put down. These improvements will require several months to complete. MILWAUKEE TO RUN SEPT. 1 Delay In Opening Seattle Servioe Due to Need of Equipment. J. R. Veitch, general agent for the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul at Port land, returned yesterday after a two days' trip in Eastern Washington and Idaho. . Mr. Veitch visited Plummer, Idaho, where the Milwaukee has a physical connection with the O. R. & N.. and by which local railroad men believe that the Milwaukee will run a passen ger service Into Portland. He had a consultation with S. M. Earllng. general agent at Chicago and son of President Earllng. Mr. Veitch said that passenger trains would be running September 1 between Chicago and Seattle, the delay being due to non arrival of equipment- Twenty com plete trains are required before the service can be inaugurated. Mr. Veitch declared that the first train would be a replica of the crack Pioneer Limited, now running between Chicago and St. Paul. He said that freight was moving to Seattle in seven days and had been handed to the O. R. & N. at Plummer in four days. Personals From Railroad Row. ' H. M. Adams, general freight and passenger agent of the Spokane, Port land & Seattle Railway, returned yes terday from Spokane. Mr. Adams said he had closed his Spokane business. John M. Scott, assistant general pas senger agent of the Harriman lines In the Northwest, Is expected to return Monday from his Eastern Oregon trip. E. H. Calef, assistant general freight agent of the Missouri Pacific and the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Railways, at St. Louis, was a Railroad Row visitor yesterday. Railway Workers Organise. The first regular meeting of the Portland branch of the American Rail road Employes' and Investors' Associa tion will be held Monday. June 27. at Woodmen's Hall, Eleventh street. Work will then be done towards drafting a constitution and by-laws. A large number of workers in the railroad of fices are joining the association. Special Sale Crowds Offices. Every transcontinental passenger of fice in Portland was crowded yesterday, it being one of the special sales dates under the cheap tourist rates. Lunch was entirely forgotten In most of the offices and tickets were so'd from open ing time until 6 o'clock. The next and final special-sale day will be July 5. SMALL TRADE AT YARDS DAY'S RUN AT NORTH PORT LAND IS LIGHT. Hogs and Sheep Sell at Full Quota tions, but the Cattle Offered Are Poor. There was only a small run of livestock yesterday, and with the market well cleaned up of previous arrivals, the result was one of the lightest day's business recorded at the North Portland stockyards for some time past. There was no change in the price situa tion. Th- few lots of cattle sold graded from common to medium, and, therefore, went low. The sheep were good and brought 4.B0, while the hogs sold at the top of the market, though they were light weights. The day's receipts were 31 cattle, "7S sheep and 03 hogs. The shippers of the stock were C. H. Moulton. of Huntington, one car of cattle; C H. Farmer, of McCoy, one car of sheep and hogs, and R. A. Campbell, of Sheridan, two cars of sheep.

EXCHANGE IS FAIR, ASSERTS CELLARS Street Vacations for 0. R. & N. Not Detrimental to City's Interests, It Is Said. DOCK PRIVILEGES RETAINED Councilman Points Out That Deal Does Not Affect Harbor Rights. - "Mass Meeting" Protest Said to Have Been Made by 12. That the city Is receiving fair returns for the vacation of 14- short streets in the central East Side district, and that access to the river front for public or private dock sites is not being shut off by the granting of these concessions to the Harriman lines, is the chief import of an interview by Councilman Cellars, given yesterday. An exchange of concessions, such as Is contained In a resolution fathered by Councilman Annand and adopted by the Council last Wednesday, declares Mr. Cellars, Is fair to both parties, and for that reason he Is supporting the majority action In the adoption of the resolution and 111 vote for the street vacations when the ordinances are presented by City Attorney Grant. "The exchange is. in my opinion, eminently fair," -said Mr. Cellars. "I fail to understand how all of the op position to it arises, unless it is through misunderstanding of the facts by the opponents. I do not favor giv ing away public property, but when the city, as in this Instance, receives fair returns. I can see no possible ob jection. While there appears to be a public Impression that, if the vacations are granted, the city loses rights of way for docks on the riverfront. I have found by Investigation that this Is erroneous; lhe city still has access to the harbor, as there are other streets running parallel that lead to the water front and where. In the future, may be built public or private docks. Rights to Be Guarded. "I voted for the adoption of the An nand resolution, as I said at the time, because of the understanding that' the ordinances will be carefully drawn by the City Attorney and will contain clauses that will allow the city to build elevated roads over or tunnel under every one of the vacated streets, should It be deemed wise In the future to do so for any reason. While I am not discussing public docks one way or the other, I will say that I have found by investigation that, should it be deemed advisable at any time to build such docks, the vacations to be granted o the Harriman lines will In no sense, affect the project. We shall have ample access to the riverfront for the purpose and will be in nowise han dicapped because of these street vaca tions." . Incidentally; Mr. Cellars said that he had been Informed of some facts con cerning an alleged massmeetlng. held on the East Side last Tuesday night. He said he has Information that there were 62 men present at the height of the session, but when tiie resolutions, threatening the recall and the refer endum on this subject, were, passed It -There Is a growing sentiment on was by a vote of 12 men. the East Side, as well as on the West Side, that the city Is receiving a just return for the concessions asked for by the railroad company and that the exchange lh every way Is a good one." said Mr. Cellars. The O. R. & N. Com pany, it Is pointed out, wants the street vacations asked for so that It may ex tend Its terminal tracks to handle the great volume of business of the entire East Side district, and for the purpose of erecting a large freight depot for use by the merchants of that district. This will prove of great benefit to them, ano will thereby benefit the whole city, it is declared. Dock Plan Not Affected. Objection is urged by. some people on the ground that the city should not vacate streets for any purpose, but tha-t franchises, properly guarded, should be granted instead. These per sons apparently are those believing In public docks, and they feel that these vacations are going to cut off access by the public to the riverfront. Mr. Cellars sets this fear at rest and makes it clear that there Is no truth in this. A resume of the concessions, briefly put, Is contained in the Annand reso lution, already adopted. From the O. R. & N. Company these are: Perpetual easement for two bridge piers on railroad land for east approach to Broad way bridge. Right to use company property for hand ling material during construction of Broad way bridge Donation of not to exceed 65 arres in South Portland for park and boulevard. Right of way for sewer in Sullivan's Oulch. Right of way for Twenty-flrst-street bridge across Sullivan's Gulch. Land for extension 6f Larrabet, street to east approach of new steel bridge. Land for boulevard in Alblna along bluff. City of Portland to grant, by proper or dinance, the following: Modify franchise across North Front street for tracks and approach to old Steel bridge for similar franchise for new Steel bridge. Vacation of streets under bluff on East Sloe for new steel bridge. Vacation of streets on East Side for freight terminals for East Fide business men; also right to cross East Burnslde street in connection therewith. Authority to !ay tracks across Randolph, Ooldsmlth. Russell and Knott streets in A 1 bina for new entrance of Oregon & Wash ington Railroad. .
