THE MORNTNG OREGOXTATT, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1914. 1 FIRST CHURCH UNIT SOON UNDER WAY Active Construction Shortly to Begin for New Home for Two Congregations. SUNDAY SCHOOL DELAYED Money in Hand, However, to Build Temple Fhen Other Work Done and Entire Edirice to Be Fin ished Within 3-Year Period. Within the next few weeks active construction work will be hegun on the church edifice to be erected on the church property at the northwest cor ner of Twelfth and Taylor streets for the combined congregations of the for mer First Methodist Episcopal and the Grace Methodist Episcopal Churches. The ultimate building will cost, in cluding the furniture, 8150,000. At pres ent only the Sunday School Temple, costing J50.000, will be built. The Sun day School Temple will occupy the for mer site of the parsonage Just west of the church building. Agreement Made With City. In order to obtain a permit from the city bureau of buildings to enlarge the seating capacity of the present Grace Church by 26 per cent to accommodate the combined congregations of the merged churches, the trustees agreed to vacate the building at the end of two years or perhaps earlier, when the final or main unit of the church edifice will be commenced. Workmen are now engaged in mak ing renovations and additions to the former Grace Church and installing a new heating system. It Is estimated that this work will be completed and the church ready for occupancy in a month. As soon as the First Church is again housed at Twelfth and Taylor strets, it Is the purpose of the trustees to in augurate active operations on the erec tion of the Sunday School Temple, funds already having been raised to finance the undertaking. The plans for both units, as well as for the addition to the old building, Are in the hands of Tourtellotte & Hummel, Portland architects. Temple to Be Three Stories. The Sunday School unit will cover a ground dimension 60 by 100 feet and will be three stories in height. The grade floor will contain the young people's club, the church kitchen and a banquet room. The various departments of the Sun day School will be distributed over the two upper stories. The second floor will be divided into a large auditorium and classrooms lor the beginners, first and second primary pupils and the in termediate departments. The pastor's study, the adult class rooms and the social rooms for young men and young women will be housed on the top floor. The main or central unit of the church will hav an auditorium with a seating capacity of 1500. The adjoin ing buildings will be arranged so that the Sunday School auditorium may, upon occasion, be opened into the main church auditorium. The prayer-meeting room and banquet quarters will be on the main floor of the central unit. Structure to Be Fireproof. The building will be of fireproof eon-sti-uction faced with stone or terra I cotta, heated and ventilated with mod ern apparatus and equipped with opal escent ceiling lights. Old ivory enam eled woodwork will prevail except for the doors, which will be of mahogany. The following members of the First Methodist Episcopal Church congrega tion have been serving on the building committee in conjunction with the pas tor, Dr. Frank L Loveland: Amedee M. Smith, J. L. Hartman, George F. John son and J. P. Rasmussen. "The additions and repairs now be ing made to the church on Twelfth and Taylor streets will be completed in about a month," said Dr. Loveland yesterday. "Construction of the new Sunday School Temple will be commenced at about the same time. "The present quarters at Twelfth and Taylor streets will be but temporary. We hope to have the complete new building within two years, perhaps be fore that time." food Things in Markets THE peach wave is receding, though good fruit Is still abundant.

LINER NOW TROOPSHIP CARNARVONSHIRE TAKEN OVER BY BRITISH TO MOVE SOLDIERS. Shippers Believe Cargo Discharged at Hongkong and Indian Army Load ed at Calcutta for Egypt. Cables from Hongkong received yes terday reported that the Royal Mail liner Carnarvonshire, which sailed from the river July 22 by way of Puget Sound for the Orient and Europe, had been commandeered at Hongkong by the British government to be used as a troopship. The vessel is one of the latest addi tions to the "Shire" line and is a sister ship of the Cardiganshire, here early in the season and at Southampton, from Portland, August 17, where it is supposed she also was pressed into service as a, British troopship. Meager information as to the Car narvonshire being taken at Hongkong leads shippers here to assume that she was relieved of all cargo there and probably sent to Calcutta to load In dian troops for Egypt, there disem barking them and taking on regulars of the British army, who will be land ed in France to support troops there engaged. The British army is drawing to Eu rope all regulars that can be spared in other possessions ond replacing them with native troops as far as pos sible, and for that reason numerous merchantmen have been commandeered as transports. Freight the Carnarvonshire carried from here and Puget Sound is expect ed to go forward from Hongkong on another steamer. With all space avail able it Is estimated that tho liner could accommodate at least 2000 men and. with additional troopships taken over, the entire British force no doubt will be sent home. No word has been received from abroad as to the Cardiganshire, and that has convinced shippers that she has been turned over to the govern ment It is known that many steamers were convertd Into transports when the war broke out and they will be withheld from commerce until the war ends and troops are ready to return from France. Frank Waterhouse & Co., agents for the Royal Mall, had no official advice yesterday of the Carnarvonshire having been withdrawn from the serv ice, and the first news was sent to an exporting firm because of Its Interest In cargo aboard. Only the new ships of the Royal Mall flag are erpected to be impressed by the governmnt, as they have adequate refrigeration space and mod ern equipment in other ways that make them desirable as troopships with the Installation of temporary sleeping accommodations. PERSPECTITE OF ULTIMATE PORT SHIFTS PILOTS Navigators Offered Schooner for Independent Service. DREDGING PLANS ABSORB Commission to Inaugurate Harbor Survey as Soon as Columbia Work Is Finished, While Dock Owners Must Pay Part Cost. Pilots employed by the Port of Port land Commission on the Columbia River bar are considering a proposal made by the Commission for them to operate there independently, using the pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer as well as sending men out on the tugs when necessary, the only restriction being that the cicerones will bind themselves not to maintain a tariff in excess of the prevailing rates. A representative of the bar pilots has been here this week and conferred with M. Talbot manager of the Port of Port land, and he is to discuss the propo sition with his colleagues. Old Plan Revived. During the days when the towage service was maintained by the O.-W. R. & N. Company, the pilots worked Inde pendently. When any of their men were carried on the tugs in going to meet a ship or returning from one taken to sea, a charge was made for their board. The Port of Portland proposes much the same plan In this case and would per mit them to use the pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer free, only providing all stores and supplies, besides guarantee ing to turn fier back In her present good condition. "I want to see the Port of Portland Commission get out of the pilotage and towage business," said S. M. Mears, president of the Commission, yesterday. "I think It would be advantageous for us to do so, though, of course, the Com mission would insist on regulating both the pilotage and towage regardless of who took over the responsibilities. There is a large amount of dredging to be prosecuted in the harbor and on the channel to Astoria and In my opinion we should devote all energies to that." The stand of the Commission against dredging closer than 100 feet to private docks, only at the expense of the own ers and that they sign waivers against damage, brought Mr. Mears in touch with exporters and owners yesterday other than those who appeared before the Commission Thursday. Heavy Expense Shied. "If taxpayers of the Port of Portland District will back the Commission, we will arrange to clear material from in front of docks, but we do not feel as if we should authorize such heavy ex pense for the benefit of dock owners and lessees," said Mr. Mears. "There will be a special type of dredge re quired, one that can dig the material and then shift to some point where a slough, lcke or low land is available, with the consent of the owners, in which to deposit the dredgings. This steo must be taken In the future un doubtedly, but members of the Com mission should hear from large Inter ests of the district other than dock owners before going ahead." Gerald Bagnall, assistant engineer In the office of-Colonel McKinstry, Corps of Engineers, United States Army, said yesterday that a survey of the harbor, from the Bnrnslde-street bridge to the south end of Swan Island, would be undertaken as soon as the Columbia River qar survey is finished. The lat ter is to be started next week and the harbor survey may be under way the latter part of September or early In October. When data from soundings then made are assembled.it will be known what amount .of material Is to be removed between harbor lines to provide a uniform depth of 30 feet STUBBORN SNAG IX CHANNEL Obstruction Fouls Anchor Chain When Being Towed to Beach. One snag, said to be the largest yet moved here and which withstood the efforts of men and machinery for two days, has become a greater menace to shipping through lodging against the anchor chain of the Norwegian bark Nordhav in midstream. If possible It will be towed away today. Harbormaster Speier spent a day last week trying to dislodge the snag from in front of Municipal Dock No. i and yesterday Walter Sterling, a diver, was sent down to make gear fast to It The harbor patrol launch managed to get the snag started downstream, but when passing the Nordhav It fouled the anchor chain, resisting all efforts to release It The Port of Portland tow boat Ocklahama was sent there and her crew worked over an hour and gave up the task. A float was anchored there last night and two red lights burned to warn vessels, the channel between the Nordhav and plant of the Willam ette Iron & Steel Works being virtually closed. Mr. Sterling said the obstruc NEW CHURCH EDITICE WILL COST $160,000. FIRST METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

Towing two large barges laden with wrecking gear the steamer Vulcan left the harbor last night in command of Captain Zumwalt for Moffetfs Landing, where the steamer Gamecock struck a rock and sank Thursday morning when bound from The Dalles for Astoria with 217 tons of wheat and the barges will be placed In position today and the Gamecock lifted If possible. The plan is to right the steamer and get her above water so the watersoaked wheat can be removed, then secure her between the barges and tow her to Portland, where the hole In her hull can be repaired. Captain Will Jones, of the Willamette & Columbia River Towing Company, said yesterday that the position of the sunken steamer had not changed, and that he felt hopeful of salving the vessel. Captain Zumwalt filed a report of the accident yesterday at the office of United States Inspectors Edwards and Fuller. The officials are at Coos Bay. and will consider the report on their return next week. XEHALEJI PROJECT ADVANCES Dumping of Rock to Be Increased During Present Month. W. G. Carroll. Junior engineer. Corps of Engineers, U. SA., reports to Major Morrow, in charge of operations in the First Oregon District that during Au gust active work was conducted on the south Jetty at Nehalem Bay, and 136 feet of new tramway was built while 7900 tons of rock was dumped. An extra derrick has been Installed to fa cilitate handling rock and it Is prom ised that there will be an Increase In the amount deposited along the Jetty this month. As yet there are no marked changes In the channel, but Improvements are looked 'or after the Jetty Is carried further ..xward. The project is being carried on directly by the Government staff, employing day laborers. Major Morrow departed yesterday for the Up per Columbia and Snake River dis tricts. On his return Monday he will remain a day here and proceed to Cra ter Lake National Park to look after road work and other improvements there. FIGHTING SALT GOES HOME Court Disposes of Turbulent Member of Nordhav' s Company. Axel Uhlonen, seaman aboard the Norwegian bark Nordhav, who was ar rested a week ago and his mental con dition made the subject of investiga tion because he ran amuck aboard the vessel with painful consequences to two or three members of the crew, goes home aboard the ship. Municipal Judge Stevenson so ordained yesterday after it had been shown that the tar suffered only from an excessive quantity of stimulants. J. H Barbour, United States Immigra tion Inspector, was satisfied with the outcome of the matter, but cheris.ies no such good feelings in the case of a sailor left by the master of the Nor wegian ship Alcides, who was ill and refused permission to land without' ar rangements being made for his care. After the vessel departed, he appeared at the Immigration Bureau headquar ters and requested assistance. He has become a public charge and apparently there is little prospect of compelling owners of the vessel to shoulder the cost. 3IORE TRAMPS ARE ENGAGED Crossbill and Lowther Range Char tered for Portland Loading. Kerr, Glfford 4 Co. added two tramps to the list of vessels chartered for grain yesterday, they being the British steamers Crosshill and Lowther Range. The former was last reported at Brixham, awaiting orders, she hav ing arrived there August 13 from Tal tal. She is a vessel of 3126 tons net register. The Lowther Range sailed from Rockhampton for Port Pirle Au gust 6. She Is of 2465 tons net register. There is an upward tendency In grain freights and while steamers were taken a week ago at 35 shillings, owners are asking as high as 37s 6d now. A week ago Balfour, Guthrie & Co. took the British steamer Queen Adelaide for wheat at 35 shillings and early this week the British steamer Orlstano, the British steamer Quito and the Dutch steamer Kelbergen were fixed. The German bark Kurt arrived in the river yesterday from Santa Rosalia under charter to load wheat but as other German vessels have been held In port owing to the war, it is not believed the Kurt will be dispatched soon. WASHINGTONIAN IN HARBOR Big Liner of American-Hawaiian Flag Mokes First Visit. Captain Broadhead brought the Ameri can - Hawaiian liner Washingtonian Into the harbor yesterday from New York by way of the Straits of Magel lan and California ports,, laden with 1290 tons of cargo for Portland firms.
