BRITISH REFUSE RISKS
War Dangers on Pacific Foodstuffs
Not Yet Assured by London Gov
ernment Tramp Denied
Pugct Sound Clearance.
Whether wheat, flour and other
foodstuffs that regularly move from
Portland to the United Kingdom are
contraband of war has not been of
ficially decided by Washington for the
guidance of Collector of Customs Burke
and his staff. In response to a query
yesterday if a wheat cargo would be
cleared on the presentation of a mani
fest, it was said that no orders had
been forwarded to refuse such a clear
ance. At the same time should exporters
deem it safe to load a grain cargo for
Kurope. Washington would be asked
to telegraph permission before clear
ance would be granted. Custom House
officials take the stand that under
the law It will devolve on President
Wilson to issue a proclamation setting
forth what goods are considered con
traband and collectors at all ports In
turn would be notified of steps they
sh.ill take in handling such items
when shown on malfests of foreign
vessels or those under the American
flag when seeking clearance to a port
involved in the European war.
War Risk Sot Vet Assumed.
No cables were received yesterday
by exporters and they said, so far as
thev had ascertained, there was no
change in the situation over that of
the past few days. A report was in
circulation that the British government
had agreed to assume war risks on
cargoes of foodstuffs from the Pacific
Coast as well as those from the At
lantic side of the United States and
British Columbia, but no such advice
was received by the Portland Flour
ing Mills Company or Balfour. Guthrie
& Co.. firms particularly Interested.
Cables early In the week were to the
effect that an effort was being made
fo have Pacific Coast shipments cov
ered, but the protection has not been
extended as yet.
F. M. Cherry. British vice consul at
Astoria, refused yesterday to permit
the British tramp Strathalbyn to sail
from the Columbia River to Puget
Sound to complete her lumber cargo
for Australia. His action, it is said,
was in line with a telegram from San
Francisco warning of the danger of
capture by German cruisers off the
coast.
Andalusia at Tslmctau.
That the Hamburg-American liner
Andalusia, bound for Portland from
Hamburg by way of Oriental ports, is
at Tsingtuii and not Manila, as was
first supposed, is the conviction of
Fritz Kirchoff. Portland representative
of the line Dispatches yesterday were
to the effect Japan would attack
Tsingtau. where German merchant
vessels are said to have taken refuge,
but Mr. Kirchoff does not think this
probable.
Reports that weather bureau tele
graph stations at the entrance to har
bors along the coast had been Instruct
ed to cease giving information as to
the movements of vessels are not of
ficially confirmed here. Acting Dis
trict Forecaster Drake said last night
that no instructions of the kind had
been received at the Portland office.
Such a move would not interfere with
the Merchants' Exchange, as the serv
ice would be obtained from the lower
harbor as before.
Derisive Battle Awaited.
That there is no right side to the
commercial situation is the view of
exporters, who averred yesterday that
It was apparently useless to plan and
speculate on what might be done until
a. decisive engagement had taken
place.
When German warships have left
the Pacific and the route via the Pan
ama Canal is reasonably safe, they
assert, then shipping may resume. Un
der the rules of the censorship estab
lished by Great Britain all cables must
be in English, no code being allowed
and no offers have been received,
charters made or reported or other
transactions recorded. .
I'iKKBOAT SENT TO OCEAXIC
Itemnant of Dock Fire Watched to
Avoid Future Trouble.
To guard against any spread of
sparks from the site of Oceanic dock,
where wheat, old timbers and other
debris remaining from the fire of July
:. is burning, the preboat David Camp
bell was assigned there yesterday to
extinguish the burning piles. No de
velopments were reported In connec
tion with a small Are found Wednesday
alongside the Elevator dock, which was
purposely started with oil-soaked waste
and a small amount of sticks and
boards, though a watch Is being main
tained along the East Side grain docks.
Care is being exercised around the
smoldering heaps where Oceanic dock
stood to avoid any spread, because
when the Northwest Door Company's
plant burned some asserted that It
originated from sparks blown across
the slip of the Upper Albina ferry from
burning plies remaining from the tire
that destroyed Columbia dock No. 2.

BY WALTER MAY.
T'S all in the way you say it.
I Some funmaker comes along and
sings "This Is the Life," and. if
you're honest about it, you'll say it's
devilish, or smart, or foolish, or maybe
Bohemian, according as you are bent.
Guy Bates Post comes caravanin
along in "Omar the Tentmaker." and
In the course of a casual conversation
says. "This Is the life," but you don't
think there's anything foolish or Bo
hemian about It. You will intuitively
understand lie's serious not too seri
ous about it. In the course of time
1 vou will hnve a keen realization that
he didn't leave a legal calling for noth
ing. Certainly not. He left a law of
flee In Seattle 25 or 26 years ago for
something a tangible something
namely, self-satisfaction, upholstered
with a little remuneration.
"ICs Just Like This,' He ssf.
"It's just like this." he will tell you.
"I was born up here in Seattle. I ab
sorhed San Francieco for a while, but
eventually I was back in Seattle, en
tering upon a legal career in a good
old attorney's office. I knew when I
began that profession I would leave it
some time. I knew I was going on the
stage. I was convinced at the end of
the month, when the 18 I expected to
get to keep body and soul together, so
to speak, wasn't forthcoming. So I
began then and there to go on the
stage. Here 1 am. and let me say to
you, this Is the life."
And Guy Bates Po6t dosen't leave any
doubt in your mind that he means it.
Neither does he give you a chance to
think that all the glory of it is in the
elusive emoluments of the makeup box,
or the night life and the abandon that
co with the stage. His worlds a stage,
if ever there was one, and he's on it
every minute, studying, climbing, plan
ning and working with a studlousness
that is fascinating. Every town he
visits (and he takes one-night stands
as thev come) is a scene with him
every audience a new manuscript to be
learned.
"Fairy land idealized," is the way he
expresses it. "In it I earn my living
help others to get theirs, polish my
manners and mirror my faulte," and he
concludes with asking you: "Is there
a more practical Eutopla?"
Guy Bates Post neally Humnn.
Mr. Post carries an atmosphere of
success about him. and, notwithstand
ing he is young yet, he is stable, too.
When lie throws off the mask of Omir
Khayyam and goes forth to mingle
with his benefactors, the people, he is
modern and human.
"Omar the Tentmaker." for the pres
ent, is Mr. Post's chief interest. He
lias played it in New York and all
around the country with almost re
ligious devotion for a good many weeks,
but every night and every matinee is
a new entrance into the fairyland of
the eleventh century poet-philosopher,
Omar Khayyam of Naishapur. This in
spite of the fact that his physician rec
ommended (I don't believe anyone ever
"tells" Mr. Post) that he rest for
a while.
In this connection he bared a secret.
Nitke. the musical director of the Ori
ental music of "Omar the Tentmaker,"
is really Mr. Post's guide to his work.
Musical Director Pout Oulde.
"Nitke plays every night with all
sorts of musicians," said Mr. Post. "He
brought him back on the dock and sum
moned Harbormaster Speier and the
harbor police. Dr. Marcellus pro
nounced death due to a fracture of the
skull.
GERMANY AXD ITALY FIGHT
Shovel Serves Instead of Gun and
Kaiser's Force Worsted.
Italy has declared war on Germany.

strongly represented and blood was
shed.
The fracas occurred at tne ousiom
house. A crowd of Italians have been
emploved there for the past few weeks
relaving floors in hallways in that
building. Yesterday aiiernoun

few preliminaries unburdened himself
of views on the European conflict and
might have said something about Ital

one from Sunny Italy landed on the
Teuton with a shovel and the latter
went down with a Baltic Sea bombard

neutrality. Custom-house attaches saw
nothing of the trouble, do not know
the names of the belligerents or the

having the work on the floors hurried.
WAUXA IS OCT FOR REPAIRS
Cancellation of Lumber Orders Re
sults in Reduction of Log Rafts.
To have her cylinder timbers renewed
and be generally overhauled, the stern
wheeler Wauoa, of the Shaver flag, was
hauled out at the plant of the Portland
Shipbuilding Company yesterday. The
Wauna was built in 1906 ifnd it is the
first set of cylinder timbers to be re
placed. The steamer Cascades is laid up at
the Shaver yard on the East Side and
the Shaver has gone down the river for
a tow again after having had the upper
section of her stack replaced. To some
extent war trouble Is being felt by
towing fleets, as the cancellation of
orders for export lumb has com
pelled the mills to delay bringing cer
tain rafts here for manufacture into
merchantable stuff.
Sandy to Dredge in Lewis.
Dredging is to be carried on through
the draw and alongside the new North
ern Pacific bridge spanning Lewis
River, the dredge Sandy being used.
She is to leave the plant of the Union
Meat Company, in North Portland har
bor, Monday and probably will be
towed by one of the Shaver steamers.
During former low water periods in the
Lewis shoals near the bridge were com
plained against by steamboat men and
it is intended to clear that part of the
channel in the vicinity of the bridge
for which the railroad interests might
be deemed responsible.
Marine Notes.

works like a Trojan with some, of
necessity. Some nights, you know, a
big show will go better than on others
Perhaps the musicians of a small town
who have little opportunity to practice
the heavy music, will spoil things. But
Nitke not only whips his musicians
into key; he keeps a close accounting
of my work. When the show is over
he will say:
" "Mr Post, you feel pretty good to
night, nicht wahr?" or he will say. So
Mr. Pest, you don't feel so good to
night," and I know at once whether I
had better sleep an extra hour or
whether I am in fine fettle for the
Dart.
"And, I want to tell you a story about
Nitke. We came into a little Oerman
town not long ago, and it was a big,
wholesome, old German who did the
second violin. Well, Nitke rehearsed
them to what he thought was a fine
point. But when the performance came
this old fellow played through the mu
sic like he was sawing wood. He didn't
observe a single rest, and Nitke kept
exhorting him under his breath to
rest.' 'rest.' But the old fellow played
on and Nitke finally stooped over, ana,
hammering his bow on the music, lain
shouted: 'Rest there, rest:
fiddling Goes on and On.
" 'Oh, dat's all"echt, I'm not tired,'
came back the answer, and the fiddling
went on.
"So, you see, we have a little comeuj
among ourselves once in a nunc mo...
the public isn't jn on."
Mr. Post swears the story is true
and he tells it with that natural gift
of the good actor.
Eight years ago Mr. Post came to
Portland as a mighty good actor in
"The Heir to the Hoorah." Today he
is here in "Omar the Tentmaker" as a
skillfully finished artist. He nasn i
relied on being born an actor, ne ims
made himself an artist.
And incidentally, it isn't every star
who is big enough to share his inter
view with "Nitke."

schooner Beulah left down yesterday,

pending further instructions.
One of the largest snags removed
from the channel by the Harbor Patrol
force this season was located in front
of the Irving dock yesterday. It
measured about four feet in diameter
and was long enough to extend from
the bed of the river to the surface.
H. Anderson, a German, who sails for
San Francisco today on the steamer

Frank Bollam, ticket agent for the ves

up by Canadian officials at Sumas, he
being taken for a German spy. He said
that he secured his release through the

Arguments on War Draw Crowds
That Stop Traffic for Time.
Interested groups who have gath
ered about wrathful citizens nrguing
about the war have obstructed the
downtown streets during the past few
days. Yesterday noon a large crowd
grouped about a German and a Brit
isher at the corner of Sixth and Wash
ington streets and a heated argument
took place between the two men over
the respective merits of Great Britain
and Germany. Finally wagers were
made on the outcome of tho present
European war.
At 8 o'clock last night two separate
crowds gathered at Sixth and jnder
streets to listen to two arguments. The
debaters tnis time, however, were
Americans. One duo argued over the
legality of European nations calling
out reserves from the United States.
The other two men were debating the
question of illiteracy among the Ger
man and Russian people. On this latter
argument wagers were made.

MANY FLEETS INVOLVED
Routes on Snake River and to Ilwaco
Country Supported by Farmers
Who Have No Other Outlet for
Grain at Reasonable Rate.
Before Henry C. Hall, Commissioner
for the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion, hearing of the petition of the Spo
kane, Portland & Seattle Railway to
be permitted to continue its steamboat
service on the Middle Columbia River,
between Fortland and The Dalles, un
til it can dispose of its boats, will be
gin at 10 o'clock this morning in the
Federal Court.
Under the Panama Canal act, which
prohibits railroad companies from oper
ating competing water lines, this serv
ice should have been discontinued July
1. The Interstate Commerce Commis
sion granted an extension, however,
pending a hearing.
The Spokane, Portland & Seattle will
be entitled to operate its boats until
the Commission hands down its de
cision from the evidence presented at
this hearing.
Lines Would Continue Boats.
The railway company has only two
boats now in operation on the Middle
Columbia, the Bailey Gatzert and the
Dalles Cltv Evidence to show that its
petition should not be granted is to be
submitted by contesting parties. Charles
H. Carey will represent the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle.
Of even more importance Is the hear
ing to be held before Commissioner Hall
on petitions from the O.-W. R. & N.
Company for leave to continue oper
ation of its river boats on the Upper
Snake River, between Riparia and the
head of navigation; of a passenger
steamer on Lake Coeur d'Alene; of its
river fleet between Portland and As
toria and Megler, Wash., connecting
with the Ilwaco Railroad & Navigation
Company, and of its steamers Bear,
Beaver and Rose City, of the San Fran
cisco & Portland Steamship Company.
running between Portland, San Fran
Cisco and San Pedro, Cal.
No contestants have appeared against
any of these petitions. The wordin;
of the Panama Canal act is so broad
however, that the railroad attorneys
say it might be construed to prohibit a
rail line from operating any boat lines
Hence, it is considered necessary to ob
tain special authority from the Com
merce Commission to continue them in
service.
Snake River Boats Carry Grain.
The O.-W. R. & N. Company has two
steamboats on the Upper Snake Kiver
Their principal business consists of
carrying grain from producers on the
south bank of the Snake Kiver to Ki-
paria, whence it is transshipped by rail
A railroad from Grangeville to Lewis-
ton runs on the north bank of the river,
and the O.-W. R. & N. has an interest
in this road, which might technically
classify the boat line as a competing
To ship their grain across the Snake
to this railroad on the north bank,
however, is regarded as highly im
practicable for the growers an the
south bank, as ferries are few. "The
cost of hauling by team down to the
river and across by ferry, moreover, is
fl.25 a load, and, as the river runs be
tween high bluffs, it is Impracticable
in most cases to make more than one
trip a day.
Growers to Support Rond.
So important to their interests do
wheat and barley growers on the
south bank consider the continuance
of the steamboat service that it is un
derstood some of them will be at Sat
urday's hearing to testify. They have
as low rate by boat as they can get
by the railroad.
The steamer operated on Lake Coeur
d'Alene by the O.-W. R. & N. is tne
stern-wheeler Harrison, plying be
tween Wallace and Coeur d'Alene.
The steamer service between Port
land and Astoria, and Megler, Wash.,
conees within the purview of the Pan-
ma Canal act because the O.-W. It. &
N. operates what might be termed a
competing line from Portland as far
as Kalama on the same tracks used by
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific between Portland and Seattle.
I. arm- Capital Involved.
The O.-W. R. & N. Co. has upwards
of SI, 000,000, its officials say, invested
in this steamboat plant, its Megler and
Ilwaco, Wash., terminals and the Il
waco rail line along North Beach
points. This railroad has no connec
tion with Portland except over the O.
W. R. & N. boats, which have been in
service many years, as there is no rail
road down the Washington shore of
the Columbia River. Should the river
fleet have to discontinue, the Ilwaco
line and the people of Pacific County,
Wash., would be left without any out
side connections.
Like the other petitions, this one is
not contested.
The petition for leave to operate the
San Francisco & Portland Steamship
Company's fleet is entered to safe
guard against any technical construc
tion of the law, as the O.-W. R. & N.
Co., owner of the steamship company,
has no rail line south of Portland.
