FORTIFICATION IS BEGUN
Concrete Work for Gun and Mortar
Batteries Practically Completed
and Construction of Re
doubts Is All Finished.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 13. Concluding
chapters In the story of American
. pluck and perseverance that made
possible the construction of the Pana
ma Canal are written by Colonel Geo.
"VV. Goethals. governor of the Zone, in
his annual report submitted today to
Secretary Garrison. Tne report tells of
the canal builders' battle against
iricny eartn slides, or the establish
ment of the permanent form of govern
ment in tne z.one with Colonel Goe
inals as governor, of the beginning of
the work on fortifications to guard the
great waterway against invasion, while
imposing rows of figures tell of the
cost of details in the canal's construc
tion and maintenance.
ine report shows that the canal's
cost, including the current appropria
tion, now stands at $353,559,049.69.
, More than $374,000,000 was appropria
tes, ur tnat amount more than $12
000.000 vas for fortifications.
Redoubts Are Completed.
Work was continued during the
ear on tne gun and mortar batteries
tne report says, "and by the close of
tne year the concrete work was prac
ncauy completed, as well as the
greater portion or the back fill. On
July 1, 1913, the construction of re
doubts in accordance with plans pre-
jjiticu uy a. ooara appointed for th.
purpose . and approved by the Secre
tary of War, was undertaken, and they

the report says, "from the beginning
vi American operations to June 15,
isn. aggregated 110.261. 8S3 cubic
yards, at a division cost of $0.7066 per
cubic yard; of this amount 25,206.100
cubic yards were removed because of
nudes, or 22.86 per cent."
Locks Withstand earthquakes.
Describing the demolition of Gam
boa Dike as one of the final steps in
the canal's completion, the report re-
Liiai witn tne exception of a
email pocket slide in the vicinity of
i.oi:ura, mo admission or water to
the cut has thus far had no bad effects;
nor has there been any perceptible
tendency for the presence of water to
produce slides."
The canal's giant locks and dams
staunchly withstood the earthquakes,
which were more violent and numer
ous during the last year than in any
since American occupation. Eighty
seven distinct shocks were recorded
at Ancon.
"Practically all the shocks," the re
port said, "seemed to originate in the
vicinity of the lower coast of Los San
tos Province, approximately 115 miles
southwest of Ancon. The most vio
lent shocks occurred October 2, 1913

As the construction of the canal pro
ceeded to the point where a date was
set tor tne admission of the first
ship, the population of the zone stead-
decreased. un June 30, 1914. the
lurue employed on tne canal was 29 -673,
compared with 43.350 at the close
vi tne previous fiscal year.
Accompanying the decrease." the re
port says, -mere was a large emigra
tion from the isthmus, and for the
first time since the work was started
mere was an excess of departures
over arrivals of about 15.000."

ARGENTINE CROP IS LARGE
Embargo Raised and Coming Grain
Exports Will Increase.
WASHINGTON', Nov. 15. Argentina,
one of the world's principal sources of
Brain supply, win nave a bountiful
crop to export this coming year, ac
cording to official Government esti
mates cabled to the Argentina Am-
oassador here today from Buenos
Ay res.
The embargo on wheat and flout
which was Imposed by Argentina soon
after the beginning of the war applied
only to last year's crop. From the new
crop the government estimates that it
will have for export 4,200,000 tons ot
wheat, 2.000,000 tons of corn. 1,200 000
tons of oats and 1,160,000 tons of flour.

Severe penalties for " bootleggers "
and for druggists engaging in the
illegal sale of liquor will be prescribed
by the forthcoming session of the Leg
islature. Tentative drafts of laws supple
mentary to the prohibition amendment
adopted by the people last week, now
are being made by several members of
the Multnomah County delegation.
It Is proposed to punish all "boot
leggers" with a fine of at least $253 for
the first offense, a fine and a jail sen
tence for the second offense, and a peni
tentiary sentence for the third offense.
Penalties to Be Severe.
Drug stores that sell liquor for other
than medicinal purposes likewise will
be punished. It is proposed to make
the first offense by a druggist punish
able by a heavy fine, the second offense
by a revocation of license and subse
quent offense by the same penalties
that are prescribed for "bootleggers."
It is probable too, that some slight
revision of the game laws will be at
tempted, but no important changes are
planned.
A complete reorganization of the
present Fish and Game Commission will
follow the Inauguration of the new ad
ministration. Efforts will be made to
remove the commission from political
power and influence.
Applicants for various clerkships and
appointive positions at the next legis
lative session are growing In number
daily.
Many Candidates Are In Line.
W. F. Drager doubtless will be re
elected chief clerk of the House, while
H. F. McClellan, of Roseburg, probably
will be elected journal clerk.
Dudley R. Clark, of Portland, and
John Stewart, also of Portland, are can
didates lor reading clerk.
In the Senate John W. Cochran has
little opposition for the office of chief
clerk. The journal clerk will be John
P. Hunt, who has served In that posi
tion for the last four or five sessions.
Frank Motter is a candidate for read
ing clerk. Benjamin Huntington, - of
Roseburg, who held that place at the
last session, has been elected County
Clerk in Douglas County.
J. W. Church, of Hood River, It is
understood, is a candidate for the read

WAR VIEWED AT PARIS
LETTER. TO EUGEXB MAJt TELLS OF

killing Mr. Herrick. the American Con
sul. "A story was told us of a Major who
shows surprising audacity. During
July 30 boats, loaded with coal, arrived
In the Oise. There was nothing un
usual In their appearance. Some time
after the war began a soldier noticed
that a 'Taube' often flew over the river,
and that every time it appeared a white
sheet was spread on the boats. He ex
amined the barges and found that the
coal concealed quantities of ammuni
tion of all sorts.
"Little by little we learn details about
some of the great battles. Thursday I
was at the hospital where I feel as
though I know the wounded. One badly
wounded man was walking around
happy that he could talk to us, in spite
of his much-bandaged head. He calls
himself lucky because his wife and lit
tle girl can come and see him.
"Our cousin has received good news
from her two brothers. One has been
in the trenches for days near the A Isnn
where the German artillery shells them
continually. The weather has been bad,
the nights have been cold, the Germans
nave passed before them and there is
notning to Duy anywhere.
- L,lontlne has written that aha
obliged to leave her home near Lagny.
When she returned after the Germans
naa gone everything had been ran
sacked and destroyed. An example has
ueen set tor mem. though, by the
Kronprinz, who disgraced himself as a
common thief in the Chateu de Baye
in Champagne. In Chantilly the Ger
mans did not harm our chateau, but
they filled big vans with valuable
piunaer.
SEATTLE CHIEF
1914' Record so Far 686 Cars Over
1913 Oats Total Also Larger.
Half of Season's Crop Re
mains to Be Handled Here.
Although approximately one-half o
the grain crop to be handled through
this port Is still to arrive, statistic
compiled at the Mercnants' Exchange
yesterday show that the congestion of
the docks has. In all probability,
reached its highest mark and soon will
be relieved by the arrival of carriers
for cargoes.
Official statistics show that 8688 car
of wheat. 1104 cars of flour and 107
cars of oats have been received in Port
land to date. In 1813. at this tlm
8002 cars of wheat. 1025 cars of flout
and 898 cars of oats had been unloaded
here.
Receipts Show Gain.
The excess of wkeat receipts to date
in 1814 over 1813 to date, as shown by
these figures. Is 686 cars. Portland
has likewise received 79 mors cars ot
flour and 178 cars of oats more than It
received last year. Receipts of barley
and hay this year show a conslderabl
slump, but, as comparatively little of
tnese commodities is shipped from this
port, that has little effect on the dock
congestion.
The grain crop in Portland's terri
tory tnis year was about the same as
In 1913. Owing to the local dock short
age,- more grain has been shipped
through Puget Sound ports than last
year. This, of course, has a tendency
to relieve the Portland docks.
In 1913 the record shows 17,433 care
of wheat were received by local ware
Housemen. A total of 2668 cars of flou
and 1705 cars of oats were received
during the same period.
Figures Reveal Proeress.
The following table shows the dif
ference of this year's receipts to date
and the total receipts for 1913:

A campaign has been started in Pasco

Spokane Chamber of Commerce asked

ment being made up in Spokane. Ail

Excess. 1013 8.745 1.664 62
These figures Indicate that with
seven months yet to come before th
1915 wheat crop begins to move. Port
land has received practically as muc
wheat as received in 1913; much more
than half of the amount of oats re
ceived in 1913, and lacks but 230 cars
of receiving half as much flour as 4-0
ueiveu in liilJ.
Considering the fact that the grain
crop in Portland s tributary territory
wu practically tne same as in 1913
and that part of this crop has been
snipped through Puget Sound ports,
tnere is reason to believe that th
greater part of our grain has already

- Korty-Sevea Vessels oa Way.
Reckoning the oats and flour in
bushels, a total of 4,380,636 bushels o
this crop has already been shipped.
r orty-seven vessels, with a carrying
capacity of 6.603.224 bushels, are now
en route to Portland. Four steamers
and two ships now In port have
carrying capacity of 1.462.20 bushel
of grain. Again reckoning the oats
ana Hour, as well as the wheat, in
bushels, the total receipts to date are
is.szz.euo Dushels.
Of these receipts, cargoes now load
ing and shipped total 5,842,836 bushels
Adding to this the capacity of the ves
sels now under charter. It is seen that
tne shipment of 12,446,060 bushels has
been provided for.
A number of the ships to carry thl
cargo are due. Among them are the
Norwegian ships Songvand. Cortez.
Cambuskenneth and Sierra Miranda, the
.Norwegian Dark ttoigen, the British
Dargs Poltalloch and Oweenee, the
.British ship Castbiton, the French bark
Pierre Antonlne, and the Belgian ship
Hero.
With practically all the receipts to
date thus provided for, narine authori
ties say it is hardly probable that the
Portland docks will be congested again
this year unless the ships listed for the
port anp again held up by the war.
