SCENES ON THE TOUR OF THE FIRST LOGS EVER TAKEN
THROUGH CASCADE LOCKS AND BELOW THE RAPIDS.
LOGS MAKE RAPIDS
Scarcity of tonnage in which to
transport fuel oil from California sta
tions to Oregon and Washington ports
is said to have prompted oil corpora
tions to enlist some of the vessels of I
the steam schooner fleet, that are con- I
structed of steel, asoil carriers. The
reported engagement of the new steam
er John A. Hooper last week by the
Union Oil Company is followed by one
that the steamer Camino, of the Arrow
Line, due in the river today, is being
considered as a tanker.
San Francisco advices say that the
steamers Oliver J. Olson, Olson & Ma
hony, Camino, Crickett. Tallae, Henry
T. Scott and Advance have carried oil
from San Francisco in spare tanks to
accommodate oil concerns here and on
Puget Sound and incidentally reap
few extra dollars for their owners. But I
such small quantities are handled by
that means that the oil interests are
casting about for vessels to be acquired
and converted into tankers or taken
for the same purpose on longtime I
charters.
Some steam schooner owners prob
ably would not be adverse to letting go I
of tonnage at this time, owing to tne i
general slump on the Coast in rates, a I
condition that has forced a fleet of
about 60 to tie up within the Golden
Gate. With more vessels on the Coast!
during the past few years and more
railroads converting locomotives into
oil burners, while short plants and of
fice buildings have adopted the liquid
fuel, business along the Coast has in
creased by leaps and bounds. Besides,
the number of oil carriers operating
from San Francisco to foreign ports in
the oil trade, are being added to and
soon it is expected that even on the
trans-Pacific routes oil will succeed
coal on all steamers.
SALE OF LOCKS YET IX AIR I
Products From Willamette Valley
Pay Same High To' I.
As grain is moving from the Wil
lamette Valley, transportation inter
ests, that contracted for the business
of delivering it at tidewater on a
promised rate lower than prevails,
with the locks and .canal at Oregon
City still under private ownership,
face the proposition of absorbing the
differential, consequently the query
again has been raised as to when the
Government finally will gain control
of the locks. As it was expected th
locks would be free ere now, it was
agreed to. handle big movements with
the canal charge- eliminated.
More defects in the abstract are said
to have delayed action by the War
Department and It is doubtful if a con
veyance of title to the property will
be made for a month or longer. Mean
while the busy season is on with hops,
grain and fruit moving in abundanc
from the Interior and the public con
tinues to pay a higher tariff. With
the locks toll removed all classes of
commodities will reap benefits, even
at rail points that are competitive with
the water lines.

For the first time in the history of
logging operations of the Pacific North
west, logs tewed through the Cascade
Locks of the Columbia River and the
rapids below, were tied up in Fortland
last night. The feat was accomplished
at the direction of the Oregon Timber
& Realty Co., by Captain Sherman and
the boat which accomplished the hith
erto considered dangerous trip was the
Weown.
The Oregon Timber & Realty Co., of
which W. F. Slaughter, A. A. Welch and
J. V. Welch are the officers, recently
conceived the idea of hauling logs from
the Upper Columbia to Portland.
He and his associates brougnt valua
ble timber on the Little White Salmon
River In Skamania County, believing
Umber could be hauled to Portland
cheaper than from the Lower Columbia.
A camp was opened at Carson, Wash.,
in the red fir forest. They soon had
enough logs to make a tow of 350,000
feet.
. The company chartered the Weown
from Captain Hosford. Captain, Fred
Sherman was employed to command
the boat. On September 30, Mr.
Slaughter, who was in active charge of
the work, had the raft, consisting of
three sections of logs an done of piling,
delivered to the Cascades.
Captain Sherman took the first
batch of logs down over the rapids yes
terday with as much ease as if he had
the Bailey Gatzert unattached. Eacn
section was taken as far as Bonneville
and there hitched together again.
From there he brought the whole
batch to Portland making the round
trip from Portland to the locks and
back in 29 hours.
Mr. Slaughter considers this the open
ing of an entirely new field. There
are untold millions of timber Just above
the locks.
LOW GRAIN RATE RCMORED
Movement of Cereals South. Draws
Steam Schooners Here.
It was reported on the waterfron
yesterday that Olson & Mahony, of San
Francisco, have chartered the steamer
Oliver J. Olson, the latest vessel built
for that fleet, to a Portland gram
firm for three months to handle wheat
from here to San Pedro at Sl.75 a ton,
which Is 50 cents below the rate being
quoted today by regular lines. The
new steamer Rosalie Mahoney, of the
same flag, came into the harbor from
St. Helens yesterday to load wheat
for San Francisco under an arrange
ment with M. H. Houser. The regular
tariff to that port is l.75. It is said
some of the steam schooners will
probably accept the business at $1.50,
The steamer Rochelle Is to load
full cargo of grain for San Francisco
at the higher tariff and others oper
ated by the Dodge interests will up
hold the rates recently agreed on be
tween themselves and representatives
of the established lines.
MOXADXOCK WILL LOAD HERE
Royal Stall to Have Two Vessels
From Coast This Month.
Waterhouse & Co. have added the
steamer Monad nock to the Royal Mail
fleet operating from Portland and Pu
get Sound for Oictober loading, and she
is looked for here by October 18 to
take on wheat, flour and general stuff
and will finish in the North. The ves
sel was engaged at 4s 9d for the voy
age to the Orient, it not being Intended
that she shall proceed to Europe as do
. the regular vessels.
The Monadnock is a member of the
Bank Line and has a deadweight ca
, pacity of 7700 tons. She sailed July 7
from Baltimore for the West Coast and
September 28 got away from Guaya
. quiL Her coming gives the Royal Mail
two October steamers from the Coast,
as the Den of Crombie will be in the
harbor Saturday.
PAPER MILL BARGE FINISHED
Old Steamer .Northwest May Be Du
plicated Here Soon.
Ship carpenters will furnish a new
barge for the Hawley Pulp & Paper
Company, of Oregon City, at Supple's
yards today and it is thought that
caulking will be ended Saturday so
that the barge can be launched. It
is 75 feet long and has a beam of 28
feet. Another barge was hauled there
yesterday for repairs.
Portland ship yards are being asked
to bid on a new sternwheeler that will
be modeled largely after the lines of
the old steamer Northwest. There are
few other new jobs in sight, but con
siderable repair work and overhauling
have been done during the season.
STEAMER BEAVER FLOATED
Vessel Leaves Beach One Week From
Time of Accident.
Just about one reek to the hour
from the timo she went on the beach
at Clatskanle the steamer Beaver was
raised yesterday afternoon sufficiently
to permit of her being beached at a
more advantageous place that will
Tacllitat. repairs being made.
Word was sent to the office of the
Clatskanle Transportation Company
last evening that the vessel was lifted
so she floated from the bottom. Logs
were hauled under her hull to give her
buoyancy until the holes in each side
could be patched and she will then be
pumped out. The work of repairing
the hull will probably be carried on
between tides. Meanwhile the com
pany has leased the steamer Elmore,
of the O.-W. R. & N. fleet, to operate
between Portland and Clatskanle until
the Beaver Is ready for service.
Marine Notes.
Though the question of the legality
of proposed bond issues is yet unde
cided the Commission of Public Docks
will meet this morning, it being a reg
ular session.
Cement from California was (dis
charged from the steamer Nehalem at
Couch-street dock yesterday and . more
arrived on the steamer Melville Dol
the Cascade Locks, which will be on
the south section of the locks. When
completed It is expected to facilitate
the movement of vessels through. The
price is $77,839 and the work must be
completed in a year.
Under charter to Gibson & Company
the British steamer Harflete Is due in
the river tomorrow from Noyo, CaL, to
load lumber at Tongue Point for Australia.

OREGON CITY HAS PROTEST
Proposed Routing or Streetcars on
Yamhill Sleets Objection.
OREGON CITY,Or., Oct. 1. (Spe
cial.) Oregon City patrons of the line
of the Portland Railway, Light & Pow
er Company are filing protests with
Commissioner Will Daly over the
change In the routing of the passen
gers to Third and Yamhill instead of
to Washington or Stark street.
Patrons along the line believe that
this change in the service will mean
added walking distance at the end of
the line and that they will be greatly
inconvenienced if the company Is al
lowed to put the change on its sched
ule. Oregon City, Jennings Lodge, Mil
waukle and other points are united in
the protests.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Washing
ton, Oct. 1. Reports from Consuls In Aus
tria and Germany, detailing the shortage
in the hop crop of Europe this year, explain,
In part, the prevailing: hlch prices that have
been commanded by the hops of Oregon and
the Northwest this Fall. Consul J. I. Brlt-
taln, of Prague, Bohemia, writes the De
partment of Commerce as follows:
"The central organization of the hop-
growers' societies In Saaz, Bohemia, after a
personal Investigation of the various produc
Ine: territories where the harvest has com
menced, has made the following estimate of
the 1013 crop: Saaz, 8,250,000 pounds; Aus
cha, 5.500,000 pounds; Dauba, 550,000
pounds; total for Bohemia, 14.300,000
pounds; total for Austria-Hungary, 23,100,-
00O pounds, against 48,180,000 pounds In
1012; Germany, 27,500,000 pounds; Belgium
and Holland. 6,050,000 pounds; France, 4,-
400,000 pounds; Russia, C.oOO.000 pounds;
England,, 35.750,000 pounds; America, - In
eluding Canada. 50,050,000 pounds; Aus
tralia, 1,850,000 pounds. Thus, the world's
hop crop Is estimated at 154.000,000 pounds.
as compared to 203,auu,ooo pounds in iui
The world's annual hop consumption is es
timated at about 187,000,000 pounds. This
shortage In the hop crop will be compen
sated for by stocks carried over from 1U1A
"Notwithstanding the shortness of the
crop the opinion prevails that the prices
will not be so high as in 1011, when hops
from the Saaz district sold as high s $81.20
to $87.05 per 100 pounds, and even higher
for selected lots."
A report from Consul George N. lift, of
Nuremberg, Germany, In part says:
"The Bavarian hop acreage this year Is
slightly larger than that of last year and
the crop is now estimated at 200.000 hun
dredweight, as compared with 230,184 hun
dredweight In 1012 and 85,968 hundred
weight in 1011. (The term hundredweight
used In this report means a bale of 50
kilos or 110 pounds.) The Spalt, Kallertau
and Aisch districts, where the best Bavarian
hops are grown, will harvest crops that have
rarely been surpassed In color, quality and
quantity. '
The hon crop in Baden and Wurttemberg
is not so good, eltner as to quantity or qual
ity, and In Elsass-Lothrlngen the crop will
hardly exceed a third of that of last year,
while in Posen, Altmark and West Prus
sia the crop is excellent. Estimates of local
hops firms for these districts are: Wurttem
berg, 35,000 hundredweight; Baden, 12,000
hundredweight; Elsass-Lothrlngen, 45,000
hundredweight; Posen. Altmark and West
Prussia, 15,000 hundredweight; all Germany,
810,000 as compared with 411,370 hundred
weight in 1012.
The Bohemian hop fields suffered much
from lice and other pests, as well as from
the weather, and the Saaz district will pro
duce a crop about 80,000 hundredweight.
about one-third of that of last year. Many
gardens In this district are a complete rau-
ure this year. The Auscha and Dauba dis
tricts will not exceed half of last year's
crop, or about 05,000 hundredweight. The
smaller Bohemian districts. Upper Austria,
Stelermark, Moravia, Gallcla and Hungary
will bring the total for Austria-Hungary up
to about 250,000 hundredweight, as com
pared -with 400,000 hundredweight in 1912.
For tlie rest of the world the hop crop is
generally good. The Russian crop Is about
a third less than last year. The same sit
uation prevails in Belgium and Holland.
France has a normal crop and in England
and America the crop Is even greater than
last year. One of the leading hop firms
has prepared the following table giving the
official figures for 1012, and its estimate
for this year, based upon full and detailed
reports from all parts of the world :
