New ateamer service and a railway

ent of the Harriman steamship line be

steamship service between Cooa Bay and
Fan Francisco, and the tarly construc
tion of a railroad into that place to con
nect with the main Southern Pacific
line running between Poland and San
Francisco. Mr. Millie seemed to avoid
discussing the railroad project for Coos
iur. but admitted 'that the enterprise
Is receiving serious consideration.
Early Start Troboble.
-ir .re not ready yet to make defi
nite announcement concerning the time
t commencing work on the road, said
Mr. Millls at the Imperial Hotel yester-
-is the project a certainty" he was
-Well, we hope something will be done
at an early date in that reserd. but we
are not ready to announce definite plans
at present." he said.
He was not as reticent about the
steamship situation at Coos Bay as he
was about the proposed railroad. He
exrlalned that since the Oregon Coal
Navigation Company sold the steamer
pum which ooerated between Cooa Bay
.nd San Francisco, to sn Alaska com-
th.ra aeemed to be uncertainty
about the lumber vessels being able to
do all the business on that line. There

Dredging Cnder Way.
"We really don't care to enter that
field, unless It is necessary." said Mr.
Millls. "Ve would prefer to give the
work to the lumber vessels that ply be
tween Cooe Bay and Ban Francisco, but
It Is not certain that they can care for
the work." .
Since the Government, aided by tae
people of Cooe Bay. has begun Improv
ing the harbor and the river channel at
Coos Bay. the port has received consid
erable attention. The work outlined
will deepen the channel to about a mile
above Marshfleld. and will make It po-
ihia for vessels of considerable draft
Captain MacGenn. commanding the
.L..e Rreakwater. said yesterday upon
striving from Coos Bay. that the first
mile and a half of the channel has been
dredged, and that he took the Break
water through that part of the channel
for the first time Thursday.
Panic Stop Construction.
The Harriman Interests had begun, the
construction of a road from Drain to
ward Coos Bay. and probably would have
had It completed long before thla time
had It not been for the money stringency
,? which forced the work of con-
traction ta come to an end. That the
a.-.,, ham faclfle Company is still look
ing forward to having the line built to
connect Its main line with Coos Bay was
,Ak.,.A m Mr. MIU Is yesterday. He
also predicted a steady Increase In the

Operating Revenue of Roads

Expenses Are Climbing
More Than Gains.

summary of revenues and expenses of

November. IBM), prepared by the Bu

Issued to the heads of the transporta
tion companies.
Howard Elliott, president of the
Northern Pacific, In commenting: on
the figures shown in the report, points
out that the net operating revenue on
the "Western grroup" of roads, which
includes all the lines west of Chi
cago, fell off 7. per cent, a decrease
more than double the increase in op
erating revenues, which were a per
cent. By economy the operating ex
nan.a waa held orsctically stationary.
"Business was rather dull on these
lines." he adds, "as shown by a falling
off of i t per cent in freight revenues.
"For all American lines the condi
tion of the railway business Is shown
i. k. that arose operating rev
enues increased only I S per cent while

operating expenses of 6.6 per cent was
nearly four times the increase of total
operating revenues."
Readjustment .to Ensue.
This same cheerless tone is heard
also from other railway officials who
keep in- touch with the financial
barometer. Predjctions of readjust
ments were made from many QWtfJ"
recently and announcement that sucn
steps are contemplated on certain
Western lines Is expected. Several
Eastern roads already have estab
lished a policy of retrenchment as a
result of the Interstate Commerce
Commission's unfavorable a,eCv!l"ti?
the appeal for increased freight rates.
What the nature of the readjustment
will be has not been determined on
any road. All "nes engaged in new
development work and extensions have
announced their contention of con

MOTHERS
The greatest crisis in a woman's
life ia when first she becomes
a mother. All the physical
strength of her nature is de

er's Friend is woman's safest reliance; it is a medicine for external
use, composed of oils and other ingredients which assist nature in all
necessary physical changes of the system. Its regular use before the
coming of baby prepares the muscles and tendons for the unusual
strain, aids in expanding the skin and flesh fibres, and strengthens
the tissues. Mother's Friend leaves the mother in such healthful
condition that ner recovery is
always rapid and natural.
