20 THE MORNING OEEGOXIAN, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1910. PORTLAND IS BEST PDIilT FOR GAR60 Export Company Decides on This Port in Preference to All Others. OFFICES WILL BE OPENED .Concern Which Dispatched Giant Ixjaci on Knight of Garter Gives Tp Tacoma Headquarters in Favor of This City. Ascertaining through experience that Portland is the most advantageous point on the Coast for obtaining cargoes and dispatching lumber carriers to the Orient, the China Import & Export Company yesterday made public a statement to the effect that offices would be opened in this city July 1 as the headquarters of the corporation, and that the agency main tained at Tacoma would be closed. It was the China Import & Export Company that spread Portland's fame abroad last month by loading the mam moth British tramp, Knight of the Gar ter, with 4.920.0O) feet of lumber, for the Far East, establishing a world's record. In addition, the corporation has, cleared several vessels since January 1 and has executed contracts for China for 10.000.000 feet of lumber that will be loaded here during July and August. The first lot is to go aboard the tramp Riverdale, which yesterday arrived at Irondale. on the Sound, with piglron, and is due in the Columbia July 11. She .came from Hankow and will load for the Celestial empire again. Two additional carriers are yet to be chartered, but ne gotiations are pending that will probably result in their being fixed this month. C. J. Butch, who has been associated with E. Schulze in the corporation, also announced his retirement yesterday, and the latter w'll direct its affairs as gen eral manager. STARBICK'S SKIPPEIl OX VISIT Captain Curtis Made Portland-New York Voyage for Seventeen Years. Memoirs of times made notable by the establishment of a clipper line be tween Portland and New York,, via the "Horn," are astir this week among oldtimers through the presence in the city of Captain Eben Curtis, of Oak land, who for 17 years was "skipper" of the good ship Tillie E. Starbuck, recently lost. The Starbuck was the first iron ship added to the American merchant ma rine and her arrival in Portland was as much of an event as when the old bark Coloma poked her nose over the bar after stirring experiences in the Orient. A short time before Captain Curtis assumed command of the Star tuck she arrived here with 40 loco motives and the big Northern Pacific ferry that operated between Kalama and Goble previous to the completion of the North Bank road. The ferry was turned out in the East, "knocked down," and reassembled In South. Portland. Captain Curtis" son Is now master of the big oil tank steamer Santa Maria. SPECIAli COAIy RATE IS MADE Breakwater Has Good Summer's Business in Prospect. As an inducement to dealers' to re plenish their stock of coal during the Bummer period as a safeguard against shortage later, the Harriman steamship interests have made a rate for July and August from Coos Bay that re duces the regular tariff 50 cents a ton. The steamer Breakwater, arriving to day, has 150 tons aboard, and it is pro posed to arrange regular shipments to form a large part of her cargo each voyage. The Beaver Hill mine, located near Marshfield, is controlled by the Harriman family, and besides affording an output for its product, the new ar rangement paves the way for larger supplies locally. Astoria Marine Xotes. ASTORIA, Or., June 30. (Special.) The tank steamers Kosecrans and "Washtenaw sailed today for Califor nia after discharging their cargoes of fuel oil at Portland. The steamer Roanoke sailed for San Francisco and San Pedro with freight and passengers from Portland and As toria. The steamer Eureka arrived this afternoon from Eureka with freight and passengers for Portland. The steamer Falcon of the American-Hawaiian line arrived today from San Francisco with freight from the Atlantic coast for Portland and inte rior points. The Port of Portland's new bar tug Oneonta arrived from Portland tonight and will make her first run across the tear tomorrow. The charter of the tug "Wanderer, which has been the relief tug at the mouth of the river for sev eral months, will expire tomorrow and she will be taken to Puget Sound dur ing the coming week. Beaver Bumps Sounding Scow. While maneuvering yesterday to "line up" for the Steel bridge, when shifting from Alnsworth to the O. & C. dock, the big steamer Beaver, of the San Francisco & Portland Steam ship Company's fleet, bumped into a scow below the bridge, breaking a pipe that was used in sounding and test ing the riverbed in connection with the proposed construction of the Broadway bridge. Captain Kidston had earned the plaudits of Harbormas ter Speler and others for his thought fulness in signalling for the bridge draw to close when he ascertained that he could not go through without delay, and the slight mishap marred an event that has no precedent in the harbor an ocean carrier's master giv ing hurrying pedestrians an oppor tunity to cross. "ew Telegraph 'Weather Reports Due Mariners and others, are expected to be Interested in a change ordered by the chief executive of the Weather Bureau through which Forecaster Beals will receive reports from 75 points in the United States, covering both coasts and the Interior, that are expected to give an improved service. The order becomes effective today and, as planned, includes an adequate num ber of telegraph reports to cover the territory, and incidentally decreases the expense. Steamer Eve Repaired.

HIGBY TAKES LAND OFFICE Ex-Register Informally Installed in Other Job in Afternoon, Although Term Did Not Begin Un til This Morning. Pursuant to telegraphed instructions from C. P. Grandfield, First Assistant Postmaster-General, Charles B. Mer rick, ex-Register of the Portland Land Office, at 12:01 o'clock this morning took full charge of the Portland Post office. This appointment is for four years. On receipt of his telegram of in structions, Mr. Merrick wired United States Commissioner Dennett to be re lieved of his Registership. During the afternoon of yesterday, Henry F. Hlg by, ex-Deputy Register, received in structions by wire to take over the office from Mr. Merrick, and will take full charge this morning. Yesterday the office staff of the Portland Postoffice worked hard to get things into shape for the new ex ecutive. Mr. Merrick had to sign a receipt for everything of value in the Postoffice department of the Federal building. To enable this to be done, every stamp and everything else rep resenting coinage had to be carefully counted and listed. Mr. Merrick signed an official receipt form, at the foot de claring he had received the above from Acting Postmaster Williamson. The Land Office was signed over at the ordinary close of business hours, but inasmuch as the Postoffice day does not end until midnight, there could be no completion of the count until that hour. - New Boss Introduced. Mr. Merrick took unofficial charge about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mr. Williamson brought in the various superintendents and assistants and Mr. Merrick expressed his hope that their relations would never be other wise than the most satisfactory. "I contemplate no immediate changes." said Postmaster Merrick. "I want first to get in touch with things here and it will be my first aim to know personally every man in the Postoffice department." While Mr. Merrick was secretary of the Portland Retail Grocers' Associa tion, he had the reputation of know ing every grocer In the city by sight and name, and this experience will aid him eventually In knowing the members of his new staff. "Any man in the department will be able to see me at any time," continued Mr. Merrick. "It will be unnecessary for him to go through any other per son for the interview. Business Man In. "As to the Postoffice, it will be my sole aim to give a business adminis tration. I have been associated with business men for the past five years, and if changes can be made that will suit their convenience and seem ad visable, they will be made. I believe I am the first Postmaster for some time who has been a business man. "In the Land Office I made it a point to give the public first service and attend to the departmental work last. This had not previously been the case. That same policy will govern me here." Mr. Merrick said he believed Mr. Hlgby would be the most satisfactory Register in the country. Business men have been complain ing - they could not reach the Post office by telephone. While not In favor of allowing the general public to call up the Postoffice on matters of mall and such like, Mr. Merrick said he desired that every business man should have the Postoffice num ber, which has up to the present been withheld from the general public. B GHQMEDEMAND S CUTGRAINEXPDHT Portland Still Second in Export Records, However, Ac cording to Figures. FARMERS HOLDING STOCKS California Xovr Taking Cereals For merly Sent to' Foreign Ports and Domestic Demand for Lum ber Is Growing, Too. I Continued From First rage.) 14 carried in excess of 3,000,000 feet each, while the British tramp Knight of the Garter surpassed all records at the world's lumber ports in loading 4,920,000 feet, exceeding the best pre vious cargo by more than 1,000,000 feet. In July, December, February, March and June the lumber exports were in excess of 10,000,000 feet and the banner month was February with 16.598,565 feet. June took first place !n coastwise shipments, all going to California, for there were 19 vessels to get away, carrying 12,121,000 feet, a surplus over May, the best previous period, of 2,974, 000 feet. In June, 1909, the aggregate amount dispatched southward was 5 770,000 feet, less than one-half of what was sold last month. The combined coastwise shipments for 12 months, reaching 102,891,700 feet, are 7,962,064 feet short of the to tal foreign exportation. Future Business Good. As to the future, there is every rea son to believe that both records will be shattered at the termination of the ensuing period, for the month will be started in the coastwise column with more than 2,000,000 feet that will be taken to San Pedro by the big steam schooner. Nann Smith, now loading, and there are other coasters to load be fore July 15 that will give the month a material lead. Likewise does the prospect of offshore business assume a rosy hue, for three tramp steamers, the Coulsdon, Eri and Saint Dunstan, are working in the river, together with the Italian ship Ninfa and American bark Paetolus and half a dozen steam ers are now under engagement to load during July and early in August for abroad. Compared with the business of 1908-09, the year closed yesterday showed no gains in cereal exports, but no season in the history of the port has ended with tidewater stocks of wheat at such an ebb. There would have been an additional cargo, approximating 120,000 bushels, for the United Kingdom, had it not been for the fact a hurry call had to be sent to the interior for sufficient grain to complete loading the British bark Iverna, and she is not expected to receive the shipment until today. But as Portland holds second place in the wheat-shipping customs districts of the United States, New York being first, there is no cause for gloom in contrasting past seasons. Kxports Cut Down. The wheat sent away during 1909-10 amounted to 5,746,125 bushels, worth $5,570,396. In 1908-09 the exports reached 6.348.035 bushels, at $5,796,354. but. the dis crepancy of 601,910 bushels does not prove a loss has been suffered, and is accounted for largely in the fact demands from California have increased and that one avenue of trade has taken more wheat this season than ever before. Flour was exported in 1908-09 to the ex tent of 551,742 barrels, valued at $2,167,460, and this season the total was 205,680 bar rels, worth $879,199, but it has been an unusual year owing to the freakish Orien tal trade and the fact that last season Portland took a prominent part in stock ing Hongkong and other markets in the Far Bast to an extent that elimi nated the necessity for heavy purchases this year. At the same time the call has increased during the past month, and the steamer Hercules, to sail July 10, will have aboard the record cargo for several months, 2500 tons. Ranchers Hold Crops. In barley, business was light, 445,940 bushei, worth $313,053, being sold, as against 821,510 bushels, valued at $549,485, last year, but there has been a good de mand for other than export purposes.

""When my little daughter wag about five years old, she was taken with the measles, a lew weeks after the measles were gone, she began to have a severe scalp humor. It itched so that she would scratch the whole day, until the blood came. We had a doctor and tried a good many other remedies, but nothing helped. Her hair ail fell out and the scalp itself had an un pleasant odor. - "After we had tried all the other remedies, my wife told me to try the Cuticura Remedies. We bought one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. We used the Cuticura Rem edies according to directions and in about three or four weeks her scalp was perfectly clear of the terrible humor. Her hair bearan to erow again and now she has beautiful, long hair. Since thaf I time I have recommended the Cuticura Remedies to other people and they also had success. Chas.

It has not been the history of previous years that immense stocks went over to the new-crop season, and probably no better Illustration of that situation could be offered than the fact tidewater hold ings have diminished to such an extent. Promises of the 1910-11 season are not being discussed in a way that permits anything but a haphazard guess on the probable strength of the wheat, fleet, and as yet only four rraft have been char tered for new-crop loading. Growers and millers are meeting a larger home de mand each year, and as the' same growth is prospective in the southern territory, there is no reason to suppose the future holds any alluring hope of new export records. In the monthly summary of the Mer chants' Exchange, issued last evening, it is shown that Portland has sent to California during June 250,123 bushels of wheat, against 188,236 bushels in the same period last year. The same au thority credits California with receiv ing 12,785 and Hawaii 16,972 barrels of flour during the month, and for the cereal year Portland is credited with a total of 9,723,361 bushels of wheat for i all shipments, Puget Sound. against 7,693,158 for Marriayo License.
