Columbia Basin Towns to IMscuss
Plans for Putting Boats Back on
Kiver Development of Deep
i Sea Traffic Is Plan.
Utilization of all available funds of
the Dock Commission for the construc
tion of docks for ocean-going vessels,
below the bridges of the Willamette
River; preparations- for a conference
aimed to reinstate the Open River
Transportation Company service on
the Columbia and Snake Rivers, and a
request for the Government to place
as soon as possible a sea-going dredge
at the Columbia. River bar: These were
the features of recommendations made
yesterday by the ooard of trustees of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce for
the improvement of Portlands port fa
cilities. Virtually all of the argument was
favorable to the installation of docks
for ocean-going vessels below the
bridges. J. N. Teal urged that for the
sake of the opportunity which Is now
offered the port to attract to it a
vaat volume of trans-oceanic traffic.
It is advisable that the Dock Commis
sion abandon Its present plans for pub
lic docks between Burnslde and Morri
son street bridges and construct In
stead a second deep sea dock below the
bridge zone.
F. W. Mulkey, member of the board
of trustees and chairman of the Dock
Commission, joined J. B. Zlegler in a.
protest against any change in-the pres
ent plans. Others present declared the
development of Portland's deep-sea
traffic of paramount importance.
J. N. Teal. II. D. Kamswell. -F. C.
Knapp. H. W. Mitchell and W. J. BurTis I
were appointed a committee to ajyiear
before the Dock Commission Wednes
day and urge the construction of deep
sea docks.
Regarding open river transportation.
It was determined to call a meeting
of representatives from all cities In
the Columbia River basin, which are
Interested in river transportation, to
be held in Portland early in September,
and confer upon plans for putting the
boats of the Open River Transportation
Company back upon the river. Lewis
ton, Kennewlck and many other Inland
cities have requested that such a meet
ing be held.
The effective work of the dredge
Chinook at the mouth of the Columbia
River has convinced the Chamber of
Commerce that a first-class seagoing
dredge should be placed at the bar as
quickly as possible. The .board of
trustees of the Chamber, co-operating
with transportation organizations In
the Columbia Basin, will appeal to the
Government for a first-class. dredge to
be stationed at the bar.
; CONVICT'S MOTHER INSANE
; Bad-Check Man's CtlnJfe - Cause -of
!" Loss of Mind. " '
With the knowledge that his mother
worried over him until she became in
sane, necessitating her Incarceration in
an asylum in California. T. W. Parker,
alias. George Martin, wafs sent yester
day to the Oregon State Penitentiary
for an indeterminate term from one to
five years. He pleaded guilty in Cir
cuit Court to passing a bad check for
10.
, The information relative to the
mother was supplied by Parker's
father, who came from Southern Call-'
fornla to be of what assistance he
could to his son. In the ljope of saving
his boy that way he had young Parker
examined as to his sanity, but the
prisoner was pronounced sane.
Deputy District Attorney Collier,
touched with pity because -of the old
man's deep grief, would have recom
mended a parole yesterday had it not
been for young , Parker's previous
reuord. Mr. Collier, says that Parker
lias already served five years in, the
Oregon penitentiary, two years In Walla
Walla and IS months at Boise, each
time being convicted of passing worthi

W. G. CALDER WOOD'S SATCHEt
' TAKEX FROM STREETCArI ,
Handbag That Looks Like Jewel
Case Contains Only Prohibition .
Tarty Pamphlets.
Somewhere in the city. In the hands
of the person who purloined the satchel
of W. G. Calderwood from a streetcar
yesterday morning, is a complete and
choice collection of . Prohibition party
literature and nothing more.' --. '
Mr. Calderwood's satchel looks much
like a jeweler's case. : ,
When he left his streetcar to go to
the liall in which the Profiibitlon'
training . conference is - being held. : he
discovered that the appearance of the
case had been too much-for somebody,
and all of his literature had vanished.
"I hope he reads it and it does him
good." is the. wish of Mr. Calderwood.
Representing the Prohibition party
organization of Minnesota. Mr. Caleleri
wood has been the principal speaker
at the training conference. In the
morning session yesterday he gave an
address upon methods of party organ
ization for Prohibition campaigning
and in the afternoon he discussed meth
ods of spreading the literature of the
movement through pamphlets and. the
press.
Other speakers at the conference yes
terday, were -A. J. Bolster, Mrs. Ward
Swope. L. A. Wells. S. W. Grath
well, In telling of methods . that have
been used to raise money for the' work,
told of a woman who, being unable to
contribute in any other way, sold her
hair and gave the money to the mover
ment.
E. E. Taylor, secretary of the local
organization, gave a discussion on or
ganization in the afternoon session.
Rallies, were held last night at
Sunnyside ; Methodist Church, Univer
sity Park Baptist Church; St. Johns,
Montavilla, 1416 East Flanders street;
Woodstock and Eighteenth, and Hoyt
street, the speakers being W. G. Calder
wood,. D. G. Dunkln, S. W. Grathwell.
A. J. Bolster. C. P. Coe, L. A. Wells
and G. B. Pratt.
At Sunnyside Methodist Episcopal
Church Mr. Calderwood, In his address
last night, followed a course from the
time, before the time of Christ, that
China prohibited treating and then
passed a prohibitory law, down to the
present. He said that the liquor traffic
presents a great National problem, the
solution of which rests with the Fed
eral Government, and that a single
"wet" state would keep the Nation
"wet" just as the Louisiana lottery af
fected every state that had abolished
lotteries.
Closing the training- conference and
the series of rallies, a mass meeting
will be held in the First Methodist
Church at "Third and Taylor streets
tonight.' B. Lee Paget will preside and
W. G. Calderwood .will be one of the
principal speakers.

PIRATES LOOT THE' FOSTER
Nothing Heard- of Americana. Since
Schooners, Parted.' .
In connection with the schooner
Americana, which is thought to have
been, lost in a storm that damaged the
schooner Lyman D. .Foster so seriously
that she was abandoned, Teports have
been received that before the salvage
steamer Ripple could reach, the Foster
from. Suva, pirates had boarded her and
appropriated all articles of value. It
is hoped to salve about 625,000 feet of
lumber in. her-cargo, and most of that
has been taken over by the original
consignee. '
No news has-been received of the
Americana, which has been out from
the Columbia River for Sydney since
March 3. The Americana" and Foster
were in company for about 23 days, and
soon after they separated the Foster
was buffeted about by. a hurricane, and
it is assumed that the Americana was
struck by the same blow. Besides Cap
tain Johnson she carried a crew of 14
men.
