When Eir Refuses to Answer

Sends for Underwriters.,
LOADING MEETS APPROVAL
Experts Saj Tliat Wlirn .Wbr Arc
Thrown Overboard and Fuel Is
Consumed, Norwegian Vessel
Will Rle lo Mark.
Captain P. E. Marcussen, master of
the Norwegian mr Kir. Is inclined
to the opinion that there are reasons
why a ship Is called "she" other than
that the rlffsrlnjr costs more than the
hull, that she has a waist, and that she
haa stays, headgear, hose and "rats.1
because yesterday the Kir developed a
dual demeanor that Is known in mari
time lore as "tender" and "cranky."
Tiiouffh the skipper asserts no mas
terful knowledge of the eternal femi
nine, he refused to proceed when the
Kir evinced a pouting disposition. Af
ter leaving the North Pacific mill aha
was anchored off Claremnnt. Captain
Albert Crowe, representing; the San
Francisco underwriters, held a special
survey.
The Elr Is under charter to the
American Trading Company and was
cleared tor Australian ports lnursaay
with a lumber cargo measuring- 2.9-3.-
000 feet. On the occasion of her last
departure from here. In July, she car
rled a larger cargo, and Captain Mar
rnssen was confident a mistake had
been made In checking; the liimber from
the dock. But tha charterers were
firm, and when tha vessel's business
here was completed a letter was irlven
the master by the American Trading
Company saying that the vessel had
failed to load the amount guaranteed
and that the difference between her
load and the amount that should have
been forwarded must be paid by the
vessel's owners.
In the presence of the Tacoma agent
of the charterers. Mr. Macquarrle. Cap
tala Crowe surveyed the Kir at Clare
mont and concluded that ahe was sea
worthy and fully loaded. She had
list to port, which he attributed to the
fact that a large amount of ashes from
frer furnace had been piled on that
aide of the steamer to be dumped over
the side when she left the Willamette.
Kesldea. he later said, the Kir was be
low her load line and he thinks that
with the removal of the ashes and con
sumption of coal on the run to Astorta
aha will rise to the mark. A letter
to that effect was given the master.
The list to port waa not regarded as
serious, but when the Kir. In rounding
the lower end of Swan Island, displayed
her "tender" feelings and did not an
swer the helm as usual, thereby being
lubbd "cranky." the skipper deemed
It time to have the Insurance Interests
apprised of the condition and learn of
bis protest of tha loading.
imiDGK PEEKS GKOW UAPIDLY
Work on Ilarrlnian Structure Is Not
Delayed by Kains.
Rain proved no obstacle to the Union
Hrldse A Construction Company In
rushing work on the Harrlnun bridge,
(or to the past ten days 3000 barrels of
cement have been used on piers and
abutments and the first setback waa
experienced yesterday when the supply
of material reached a low ebb.
The breaking of a portion of tha
cofferdam on the first pier, which oc
curred last week, hum not retarded
progress to a material extent and yes
terday the big buckets of concrete
were being lowered Into the v ells of
the caisson as of yore. The Kast Side
J-ler Is to be started shortly and a crew
Is engaged at the site In blowing away
hard formations on the riverbed. On the
AVert Side tha first pier, which will be
at the edge of Alaska dock. Is under
way. A crew Is building up the cais
son and It will be weighted and sunk
Into place as fast as the walls grow.
Fear of high water Is entertained by
the bridge constructors, and to avoid
delays the foundations In process of
tmlldlng are being hurried so that they
will be above the line at which high
water and a stiff current would prove
troublesome. o provide the most re
liable information concerning the con
dition of the I'pper Willamette, the of.
Dclala have added to the Weather
Bnreaa service a system of their own,
through which men stationed at points
as far south as Albany and Corvallls
forward daily reports on the gauge
readings, showing the stage and
changes for it hours, while In emer
gencies they are instructed to telegraph
the data. By that means the bridge
crews can prepare night or day for
trouble. When the east pier Is started
It Is proposed, with the sanction of the
authorities, to construct a line of boom
artlcks, reinforced by dolphins, which
will begin at a point upstream on the
east bank and extend toward the chan
nel, so that drift will be carried past
the caisson plant, instead of lodging
beneath the dock and between scows.
EXGIXEERS START XEff DOCK
Profile Being Made for City of
Stark-Street Site.
Evidence that the City Engineer's de
partment Is not to be outdone by other
improvements In inaugurating prelim
inary work in the Stark-street concrete
quay was offered yesterday in the op
erations of a surveying crew, which
began running lines from the east line
of FTOnt street to the river, covering
the site to the harbor line. A profile Is
to be made, showing the elevation of
buildings on both sides of the slip and
Including other data on which speci
ricatior.s will be compiled In calling for

At no point In the main harbor on
the West Side haa there been so little
activity shown In past years as In the
vicinity of Stark street, yet today there
Is one dock under way south of the
slip, the Failing Interests and Reed In
stitute are considering details of the
construction of a modern concrete dock
between Stark and Oak streets, prob
ably to Include two decks and two
Tloora above for storage purposes, and
the city executives have authorised the
construction of the Stark-street quay
and appropriated 1 1 5.000 with which to
begin the undertaking.
In next year's budget will be Included
mother appropriation of the same
mount, deemed sufficient to complete
the structure.
STANFORD'S KEEL IS GOVE
Hull "Swept" Yesterday and Great
er Damage Is Found.
Mora serious' 2ian a as at first estl-
1 mated Is the damage to the barkentlne
Jane L. Stanford, lying at the St.
Johns' drydock. for yesterday Captain
Albert Crowe, on behalf of the under
writers, examined her bottom, by

mtl ner aei, piBVUtSJijr i u.u

plsces the keel Is gone to the planking.
The condition of the rest of her
hull csnnot be ascertained until she is
plared on drydock. The work of dis
charging the lumber loaded on Grays
Harbor is being hurried so that she can
be surveyed and repairs ordered with
out needless loss of time. It is as
sumed that her rudder la damaged and
that she is badly strained, because

closed. Pilots on tlrays Harbor, know
ing she struck the bar there while
bound out Australia, did not regr-1
the damage as serious and it was not
until she was out several hours that
soundings In the well Indicated she was
leaking badly. She took water so fast
that the skipper put Into the Columbia
and he may not leave until December.
The lighthouse tender Manzanlta put
to sea yesterday from Seattle and cn
route to Astoria she will call at Grays
Harbor and shift the outer Jetty buoy,
so as to mark deeper water as a guard
against similar mishaps.

iBEER SHIPMENTS
SUDDENLY DOUBLE
Election Has Effect of Bring
ing in Much Liquor From
Eastern Marts.
20 CARLOADS ON WAY NOW
Wholesalers let Supply Run Short
Before Vole on Liquor Question.
Market on Hops Takes Upward
Trend After Returns Come.
Liquor shipments from the eastern
brewing and distillery centers and bop
shipments out of Portland have more
than doubled since it became known
that Oregon would be "wet" for
feast two more years.
All the railroads having connection
vsith St. Louis, Milwaukee. Louisville
and Cincinnati, four of the largest dis
tributing points for beer and whisky
in the country, report that heavy ship
menu of spirit beverages are on the
way to Oregon. Likewise those serv
ing the breweries In the Northwest are
moving more of this kind of freight
now than during the few weeks previ
ous to the election.
The Chicago Northwestern and the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul handle
most of the Milwaukee beer that comes
Into Portland. Local agents of both
these roads report that orders for car
load shipments were held subject to
tha result of the election. As soon ai
the returns showed that the "wet" vie
tory had been clinched these orders
were released. Many wholesale liquor
dealers, aa well as the retailers, had
allowed their stocks to run low during
the campaign, thus putting the freight
traffic far below the normal. After
the election It became necessary to re
pleniah the stock and the usual order
was augmented by the demand to sup
ply this loss.
Dealer Send in Big Orders.
In addition to this, railroad men fig
ure a psychological result from the re
turns. One freight agent said yesten
day that the Joy attending the "wet
victory Instilled many liquor dealers
with a spirit of recklessness that
caused them to order more than the
usual amount. This probably accounta
for some of the extra heavy orders.
The Burlington, Illinois Central and
Wabash are the principal roads having
Portland offices that tap the brewing
districts of St. Louis. Every one of
these has from four to six carloads of
beer on the way to Portland now.
From Cincinnati and Louisville come
the statements that large quantities of
whisky have left those cities for Fort-
land wholesale centers. It Is estimated
that the shipments aggregate a car
load.
"We figure," said a freight agent
yesterday, "that fully 20 carloads of
beer will arrive in. Portland In the next
week or 10 days from the Eastern and
Northern brewing centers. This is far
above the average and is In addition to
the local supply.
This liquor represents the decrease
In stock and the supply that will be
sufficient to replace their shelves and
refrigerators with the usual quantity
for future consumption."
Hop Market Is Affected.
Movement of hops over the roads
leading out of Portland also was af
fected by the uncertainty of the elec
tion. While the price of hops advanced
gradually during the campaign the lo
cal market remained somewhat stag
nant, farmers reporting difficulty in
disposing of their stock. .
It Is charged In dry quarters that the
absence of a demand for the hops of
Oregon growers during the campaign
waa created by the "wet" Interests,
who thus sought to influence the farm
ers to vote against prohibitlin.
Railway men say, however, that the
demand for hops among Eastern brew
ers is constantly increasing and that
the result in Oregon would not have
affected the market materially.
Hops have started to move eastward
now, and the several roads connecting
Portland with Eastern consumers are
rushed with freight orders.

BLOOD DISEASES
CONTAGIOUS .TROUBLES
Contagions Blood Poison more
thoroughly permeates the system than
any other disease. Its infectious virus
contaminates every corpuscle and
tissue of the circulation, and for this
reason its symptoms are of a varied
nature. When it enters the blood it
is but a short time until the mouth
and throat begin to ulcerate, the skin
becomes spotted, rashes and eruptions
appear on the body, sores and ulcers
break out, the hair falls, and fre
quently nails on hands and feet thick
en and come off. Mineral medicines
which simply shut the poison up in
the system should be avoided, for when
such, treatment is left off the old dis
ease will break out again, often worse
than before. S. S. S. cures Contagious
Blood Poison permanently, and it does
bo because it thoroughly purifies the
blood. S. S. S.
goes into the
circulation, and
drives out the
last trace of the
destructive
germs, adds
richness and
vigor to the cir
culation and
allows it to nourish the diseased por
tions of the body back to health.
S. S. S. is purely vegetable, being
made entirely of roots, herbs and
barks, without a particle of mineral,
and its vegetable ingredients always
hasten the cure by toning up the
stomach and digestive members.

No Speculative Demand Buyers
Are Afraid of Stock Not
Going Forward.
The dally market bulletin of the North
western Fruit Exchange, Spalding build-
inr.'followa:
The demand for Northwestern boxed ap
ples continues very unsatisfactory, and the
whole market la weak and lower. . We
should ear that d rices have gone olf from
LT.c to 50c per box within the past week.
Buyers are only taking what fruit they
require for their Immediate needa. There la
an absence of speculative demand, and only
the cheap varieties which are strictly ud
to grade In the very beat hard storing con
dition are wanted. Soft .varieties and cars
of mixed varieties containing early and late
keeping stock are neglected and avoided, aa
tne traae are airaia to iu, a cnance on
them. There la also a very general impres
sion among the trade that the fruit which
Is now going forward, which representa the
tull end of the crop, la aoft and unfit for
storage. We sold a buyer In Philadelphia
early in the eeason a block of ten cara of
Black Bens to be shipped from Cashmere.
These cars have been coming out so slowly
that the buyer wired us to cancel the bal
ance of the order, as he waa afraid of the
keeping quality of the fruit- Thla may be
taken as a fair example of the general Idea
of the trade.

IMPORTANT THATPUBLIC SHOULD
KNOW ABOUT GREAT
KIDNEY REMEDY.
The testimonial I am to give you
comes unsolicited. I have been suffer
ing from lumbago for ten years and at
times was unable to stand erect. A Mr.
Dean, of this city, saw me in my condi
tion (bent over) and inquired the cause.
I told him that I had the lumbago. He
replied, "If you get what I tell you to,
you need not have it." I said I would
take anything for ease. He said. "You
get two bottles of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
oot and take it, and if it does not fix
you O.K.I will pay for the medicine my
self." I did so and am a well man. For
five months I have been as well aej
could be. Before I took your Swamp
Root was in constant pain day and
night. This may look like advertising,
but It seems to me most Important that
the public should be made familiar
with this treatment as it is the only
one I know which Is an absolute cure.
I owe a great deal to Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, and am anxious that
others situated as I was should know
and take advantage of it- Hoping that
this testimonial may be of benefit to
some one I am,
