Strauss & Company fixed the Ger man bark Egon at 28s. 6d., yesterday to load wheat and barley, or all barley, here, for the United Kingdom. While not the lowest rate of the season, it is regarded low for a new-crop barley option. The ship is of 2069 tons net ' register and sailed from Hamburg April S with Santa Rosalia as her desti nation. The rate reported for the Helwig Vinnen was 25s. 6d., she being of 2827 tons net register, while several were fixed at 28s. 9d.. and the Olivebank and Knstlehorn obtained 28 shillings. The British bark Invercoe. a late charter, Is said to have been taken for 31s. 6d. She is a vessel of 1322 tons. The Ger man ship Arnoldus Vinnen has been engaged by the Portland Flouring Mills Company. The list of carriers fixed for 191 5915 grain loading, numbering 41. is the largest for a corresponding period since 1902. At that time 62 ships were on the board at the Merchants Ex change, and at the rate with which new-crop business haB been done during the past week it js fully expected more tonnaee will be added. - Other ships of the present season's fleet are reporting out, for the Mer chants' Exchange received news yes iterday that the French bark Bretagne passed Dungeness June 17. She went to sea February 1. The -French bark Le Pilier, German ship Chili and British bark Philadelphia arrived at Falmouth the same day. The departure of the Le Pilier from the Columbia was Feb ruary 11. The German ship Chili got away from the river February fc ana both made fair passages. The Phil adelphia sailed December 16, but as her crew mutinied and took charge of the shlo. she was headed for San Fran cisco, arriving January 19. Her mas ter. Captain .Lawrence, was reiieveo. the sailors accusing him of being in competent, and the owners signed a new crew. Under command or captain George she passed out to sea Febru ary 9. GLESLOCHY DUE HERE TODAY Liner Loads Bulk of Her Outward Cargo Here for Orient and Europe. Barley to the amount of 1000 tons. consigned to the United Kingdom, goes out on the Royal Mall liner Glenlochy as Dart of 6200 tons of cargo, meas urement. she loads here. There will . also be lumber and general cargo for Far Eastern harbors. The vessel is due today, having sailed from Tacoma at 10:30 o clock Wednesday night. One of the principal items on her manifest to be discharged at Portland is 2500 bales of gunnies from Calcutta, From Kobe are 2630 packages of sun dries, making a total of 300 tons. There are 112 bags of glue aboard from Antwerp. At London the vessel loaded liquors, mineral water, pickles, glnger bnaDs and an assortment of such com modities and at Yokohama 137 tons of freight of a miscellaneous character was received. There are 25 barrels of cottonseed oil from Shanghai and 75 bags of sugar and five cases of cassia from Hongkong. At Vancouver, B. C, the Glenlochy loaded 60 mats of rice for Portland that were brought across the Pacific on another vessel. In many features the Glenlochy resem bles the Glenroy, which first came here this Spring: and was damaged in fire in March that destroyed Columbia and Montgomery docks. ANOTHER TRIP FOR PARAISO Oliver J. Olson May Go on Portland. Coos Bay-San Francisco Route. Possibly one more trip will be com pleted by the Swayne & Hart steamer Paraiso on the Portland-coos bay-san Francisco run, when she will be re turned to the American-Hawaiian serv ice, says Fred P. Baumgartner, Port land agent for the Arrow Line, who days that negotiations are under way that insure a vessel being available to succeed the Paraiso at once. One re port is that the Oliver J. Olson will be chartered. The Paraiso left the river yesterday and' is due to depart from Portland again July 1. The return of the Paraiso to the American-Hawaiian flag is not for a lengthy period, as that company con- . templates shifting its schedule with the opening of the Panama Canal so that the smaller liners, such as the Ne blaskan and Nevadan and others of the type, will proceed here after dis charging San Francisco cargo and probably returning from here. The larger fleet will make California ports and Puget Sound. The Paraiso is char- ' tered in that line simply as a transfer vessel between San Francisco and Portland. AVAXD TAKES RECORD CARGO Decking Over Alaska Steamers Proves Revenue Producer. Captain Jansen, master of the Alaska . steamer Thomas L. Wand, which sails early this morning for Skagway and way ports, avers that the temporary deck built on the ship, which was fin ished yesterday, has nearly doubled her capacity for general cargo. In her argo are 17,000 cases of salmon cans, 1000 cases of can tops, 700 boxes of tinplate, 68,000 feet of lumber and 250 tons of merchandise and sundries, the largest load she has carried. Inci dentally the cost of decking her over n-as less than one-tenth of the addi tional revenue gained. On the run north the Wand will make 3t calls and were it not for the fact the steamer J. B. Stetson made 161 calls on her present voyage, she would be here tomorrow after & round trip J of 13 days. She lost time at Ketchi kan on the southbond run and will be here Sunday. While steamers op erating to California are skirmishing for business, the Alaska fleet has all that can be handled and the passenger trade Is most satisfactory. . PLEIADES COMING IX JULY Luckenbach Fleet to Take Second Cargo of Salmon and Lumber. One more cargo for the Luckenbach fleet is being assembled on the river and the present plan is to have the steamer Pleiades here July 12 to load for the Panama Canal zone and the Atlantic side. There is a shipment of salmon to move on the freighter from Astoria, as well as lumber and gen eral cargo from Portland. The steamer Damara, of the same flag, which loaded lumber and other freight here, worked 10,008 cases of salmon at Astoria Wednesday and went to Knappton to take on the last Of her BALLOON SHIPPED OX BEAR California Liner to Have Full Cabin List Sunday. On reaching the city yesterday from Molalla, where it was landed Wednes day evening following a trip from Portland, the balloon Venice, which has been operated in the city recently as a captive balloon, was conveyed to Ainsworth dock for shipment to Venice, Port Los Angeles, on the steamer Bear, which sails Sunday. Edward Ungef, owner of the Venice, will accompany it. First-class accommodations on the Bear have been snapped up, and she will have a full list. Extra rooms be ing added on the bridgedeck for some of her officers have not been finished, so those occupied will not be avail able for passengers until her next voy age. The steamer shifts about the har bor today collecting freight and takes on the last at her-berth tomorrow. News From Oregon Ports. COOS BAY, Or., June 18. (Special.)
