TAfOMA. Feb. 10. The steamer

tna Orient Transpacific Conference Su
re u. comprising all steamship lines
rlylnr between the Orient and the Pa

mi February 14 In an attempt to
run the tramp steamers off the pacific.
Five centa a hundred will be added
t. the resrular rates and these will be
rebated at the end of a certain period
to sMppers nslna; tha Transpacific
Conference lines eicluslvely.
The rebate arrl' to commodities
from Japan to the I'nlted States. This
may divert rariro arolnc by the Sues
route to the pacific Coast. The rebate
does not apply to westbound cargo.
rvferred rebates have been paid by
the transpacific tinea for a Iodic period,

the more la that when there are l.irjte

transpacific lines are unable to handle
It at leaa than the regular tariff, be
cause It must be hauled by rail from

a lower tariff to be published for at

to load tha cargo on the other side at

being In a position to pay the "back"
haul from New Tork or another port
should the goods be consigned to an

It la thought that the transpacific

LINE TO BE ISSUE
Three Roads Covet Fourth
Street, It Is Declared.
ELECTRIC POWER PLAN
Three Concerns IlaT Been Xamed as
Probable C'sers Jossclyn Denies
That His Company Has Any In
tention of Acquiring It.
With the Pacific Railroad Navigation
Company's line between Illllsbnro and
Tillamook Buy rearing completion and
the Southern Pacific Involved In court
proceedings over freight charges from
the South Portland mills to the main
line because of the necessity of giving
their cars a lengthy haul to the Alblna
yards, the probability that the Fourth
street line may be electrized is being
considered.
In this connection at least three local
rallrnud concerns have been mentioned
aa the probable users of the road, should
It be electrised. Besides the new line
to Tillamook Bay and the Southern Pa
cific Itself the Portland Rallwny. Light
& Power Company Is said to be an appli
cant for the right to operate in Fourth
street.
But such intention on the part of the
local electric company Is positively de
nied by B. 3. Josselyn. the president.
"We have no thought of acquiring the
Fourth-street property for any purpose
whatever." he aald yesterday. "We
never have considered the matter among
ourselves and never have suggested it
to ofllclnls of the Southern Pacitlc. nor
have they suggested It to us."
Officials Say Steam.
In spite of recent reports crediting the
Tlilaniiok line with an Intention to enter
Portland over the Fourth-street line with
e4ectrlc power, offlrlnla of that company
declare that they will operate from one
terminal to the other under steam.
The plans at present provide for the
completion of the remaining gap as early
as possible and the Immediate Inaugura
tion of through train service between
Portland and Tillamook. All of the work
between Hillsboro and the ocean a dis
tance of M miles has been done by the
new company. Some of the construction
was through extremely difficult sections
of country and rond building was done
at a great expense. The line will be
completed. It is predicted, early In 'the
Summer.
Between Hillsboro and Portland this
line will operate over the tracks of the
Southern Pacific using the Oswego bridge
and entering the Union depot. Although
no arrangements for the use of the
Southern Pacific tracks have been made.
It Is expected that terms will be reached
without difficulty, as the new road Is in
reality a-part of the Harrlman system.
Harrlman Men Financed It.
While the enterprise was projected and
started by E. E. Lytic for that reason
being known as the "Lytle Road" it Is
financed by the Harrlman Interests. Fol
lowing the financial depression of thrp.e
years ago when work on the construc
tion was temporarily suspended, the,
V'nlon Paclfln advanced funds for the
completion of tlie work.
This line Is the only one of the Harrl
man system that was not Included in
the merger of a few months ago. It will
be started and operated Independently, it
Is announced, although It Is expected thot
eventually It will become a part of the
great Northwest system known as the
O.-W. R. & N. Co.
It Is not the policy of the company to
do heavy work over the mountains be
tween this city and the Coast with elec
tricity, even though entrance Into I'ort-
r,cl
lan
d may at some time be eneciea witn
electric nower.
'Such a step Is not being considered
and never has been considered." said an
odlclal of the company yesterday. "We
will operate our entire road with steam,
and aJthoi.gh electricity as a motive power
Is a possibility of the future, its use is
not at all probable."
Line to Be Retained.
Southern Pacific offlclala say that the
Fourth-street line will be retained, al
though they hove no plans for the Imme
diate use of It further than those In
operation at present.
Even should the demands of the South
Portland mill owners for closer rail con
nections with the Alblna yards be
granted I Is not likely that the Fourth
street link would become a part of such
a Hue. as continued objection to hauling
freight, even though drawn by electricity
over a business thoroughfare, would
arise. .
It is evident that the Southern Pacific
will not give up Its franchise on Fourth
street. A part of the line south of the
city has been equipped with wired rail
joints. This will permit a speedy elec
trification of the road at any time that
such a step Is decided upon.
ROAD PREPARES FOR TRAFFIC
Harrlmao Officials to Make Trip
Over ICM-hutes Line.
A party of local Harrimnn officials
win leave ruriiiim .'""""J a1- ' t
trip over the newly-constructed road up j
the Deschutes aney. im oojfci as un
of preparation as well aa of Inspection.
While It la desired to view the work thus
far accomplished, arrangements a loo will
be made for handling traffic on the new
line aa soon sa It Is ready for operation.
Work now has progressed no far that the
qucexlon of trafTIc is one that requires
serious consideration.
K. b. Miller, traffic manager of the
road, will travel with the party In the
special train to the end of the line so
far constructed, after which he will go
In an automobile to Madraex Redmond
and Bend, points farther south, to Inter
view shippers and to arrange for their
accommodation.
Other members of the party will be
Frank. W. Robinson, general freiglt
agent; M. J. Buckley, acting general
manager; G- W. Boschke. chief engineer;
John M. Scott, assistant general pas
senger agent, and F". R. Dunn, traveling
freight agent. They will leave Portland
early Sunday evening and remain at Des
chutes until morning, making a daylight
trtp up the canyon. This will give them
an opportunity of seeing the country and
of Inspecting the work so far done.
JOSSELYN STILL SF.EKS MAX
Position of Railway and Light Man
ager ft Yet Filled.
When F. F. Barbour, who recently re
signed as assistant to the president of
the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company, leaves that office on March 1.
his position will be abolished and his
duties divided among the heads of some
of the other departments.
The company Is still looking for a
competent man to fill the position of
general manager and to have charge of
the lighting as well as the transporta
tion ends of the service.
These are the only changes we are
contemplating." said President Josse
lyn yesterday. "We positively do not
Intend to create any more new posi
tions or abolish any that we now have.
excepting; that which we have an
nounced, and do not expect any other
changes.".
Railroad Men Like Portland.

amszed at its progress. W. L. Ross and
B. C. Stevenson, vice-president ajid as
sistant traffic director, respectively, of
the Iowa Central and Chicago & Alton
railroads, arrived in the city yester
day and visited with R. W. Cook, Port
land representative of those roads.
They are traveling in their private car
and are making a tour of the Pacific
Qoast country not on business but for
pleasure. The system which they rep
resent includes also the Toledo, St.
Louis & Western, popularly known as
the "Clover Leaf" route, and the Min
neapolis & St. Louis Railway.

IMPURE MILK CONDEMNED
14 Cans Taken From Steamboats and
Returned to Dairies.
Because Sauvles Island dairymen
foiled to cool the milk sent to Port
land on the Steamers America and
Iralda sufficiently to prevent it from
becoming sour, E. D. Smith, city milk
chemist, condemned 14 cans of milk and
two cans of cream yesterday morning,
when It arrived aboard the boats. He
used the thermometer test and also
poured a liquid, the character of which
the steamboat agenta were not familiar
with. Into the milk.
Inspector Smith ordered the milk re
turned to the dairies. He declares that
more milk will be condemned to
day If It is not properly cooled. The
steamboat men say the milk comes di
rect from herds of Inspected cattle.
Among the dairymen whose milk was
condemned are: Arnold Snyder, W. P.
Davis, W. W. McBrlde, Ben Tannler,
R. H. Todd. John Branhall, T. Brutrger,
J. C. Brown.. A. Babeur A. E. Bosel,

BRAZEE PROTEST DRAFTED
Objectors to Carllne Mention School
)iouse and Playground.
At a meeting last night of property
owners and residents of Brazee street, a
petition was drafted protesting againft
the use of that street by tne .Mount Jiooa
Electric Railway, which will be present
ed at a meeting of the street committee
of the Council Tuesday.
A committee consisting of t. A. L
mareux. H. B. Miller, L. C. Gilllland. J.
B. Hyams, Bert Haney and C. J. Seufert
will address tho Council on behalf of the
petitioners. Sixty signatures were af
fixed to the letter of protest and most of
those signing have expressed their In
tention of being present at Tuesday's
meeting. The principal argument against
building an electric road on Brazee street
Is that the playgrounds of the Irvlngton
Club are on that thoroughfare. It Is
also iM)lnted out that the proposed road
would pass the Irvlngton Bchool.

Dry Postoffice Floor Sought.
Several heavy rubber mats have been
bought by Postmaster Merrick, of the
Portland Postoffice, for use In the
lobby during heavy rains. The large
number of streaming umbrellas car
ried to and fro through the lobby on
wet days create pools of water at
the registry windows, where the stone
floor has been worn down by the thou
sands of feet that have walked over It.
To keep the lobby from becoming one
big lake, four Janitors were employed.
Then sawdust was used, but was found
unsatisfactory.

WEAK KIDNEYS &THIN BLOOD
Hot only 13 the blood the great
nourishing source of our systems, but
equally a3 important is its work of
removing the waste of oxodized tis
sues which have been consumed in
force and bodily heat. This waste is
filtered out through the kidneys.
When, however, the kidneys become
weak and unable to perform their
regular duties, the waste is allowed
to remain in the circulation, soon
forming uric acid which destroys the
greater portion of nourishing elements
of the blood and leave it weak and
acrid. This imperfect blood deposit3
into the different muscles and joints
the uratic impurity with which it is
contaminated. Then the pains and
aches of Rheumatism commence. The
gritty formation which uric acid
causes collects in the joints and pro
duces the aches and stiffness which
always accompany the disease. Like
wise the muscles are coated and lose
their elasticity, while the continual
irritation to the nerves produces swell
ing and inflammation of the flesh.

Rheumatism in
the only way it is
possible to over
come the disease;
it cleanses the
blood of all uric
acid poison and
strengthens' the
kidnevs so they
are enabled to properly filter out the
waste. S. S. S. is not only the best ot
blood purifiers, but a fine tonic. Book
