about $10,000 higher. The digger is
on the Port of Portland drydock to
have her hull chipped nd repainted
nd may be floated the latter part of
the week.
At the office of Captain Dillon bids

BARLEY SHIPMENTS GAIXIXG
Two Ships Arc Cleared for War Zone
Willi Cereal Cargoes.
Barley exports promise to be strong
for the remainder of the 1914-15 sea
son, and two large lots were cleared
yesterday for Great Britain. The
British ship Bay of Biscay, was cleared
for Queenstown or Filmouth for
orders with 103.181 bushels of the

GLEXGYLE COMES SATURDAY
Rojal Mail Liner Loads 2000 Tons
Here for Orient and England.
In spite of the strike of longshore
men at Vancouver. B. C, where the
Boyal Mail liner Glengyle Is discharg
ing 5000 tons of cargo before proceed
ing here, it is said that the liner will
be at Portland Saturday. William P.
Prlchard. vice-president of Frank
Waterhouse & Company, agents for the
fleet, has returned after a visit there
and says the ship is not being worked
at night, but is making h,eadway dur
ing the day. She will have 2414 tons
for this harbor. In the way of out
ward cargo the Glengyle is to take
on about 2000 tons, most of which will
be flour.
The coming of the Glengyle will be
of interest to the waterfront fra
ternity, as she is one of, the new
"Shire" liners. The Carmenthenshire
has been given speed trials and other
tests in Carrick Roads, and is soon to
load at London for this Coast, via the
Orient. She was launched the latter
part of 1914 at Belfast. The Pem
brokeshire was also launched not long
ago and the Brecknockshire is under
construction.
JITNEYS GO ox xorthlaxd
Vancouver Cars Will Be Carried to
Honolulu Via San Francisco.
When the steamer Northland sails
Thursday for California she will carry
14 passengers and two large jitney
buses, formerly operated in the inter
state line between Portland and Van
couver, all bound for Honolulu, where
the cars are to be placed in service, the
tirst between that city and Schofleld
Barracks, about 27 miles inland. Those
behind the venture are residents of
Vancouver.
The Northland is loading and Cap
tain Bodge will have the big cars placed
aboard so they can be landed at San
Francisco without delay, as they are
to be shipped on the liner Sierra, leav
ing the Golden Gate a week from to
dav. The promoters of the Hawaiian
jitney system will ship auto trucks also,
the bodies of which are to be turned
out there. Honolulu is the hub from
which radiate some of the finest roads
in the world, and as only a few tour
ing cars have served from Schofleld
Barracks, competing with the railroad,
a brisk business is expected.

KEXXEWICK SERVICE TALKED
One Steamer May riy Above Celilo
in About Two Weeks.
Officials of The Dalles-Columbia line
are considering the inauguration ol
service between Celilo and Kennewick,
March 20 or 22, with one steamer,
though the time may not be fixed defl-
nltelv for a few days. A trip was made
to the Big Eddy last week and the
ground gone over as to the amount of
work necessary to start one steamer.
The prospects for bringing tne neei
throusli the Celilo Canal soon, so their
overhauling-might be prosecuted here
are not bright, as the big ditch may
not be passable until early in April and
possibly not before the middle ot the
month. There is freight available at
Portland for movement along the Upper
Columbia and some stuff Is ready in
that territory to be brought here, Dut
owing to the fact it has been impossible
to announce when the service would be
resumed, shippers there have not taken
steps generally to arrange for delivery.

BRIDGE SUII LOOMS
Riaht-of-Wav Condemnation
Is Threatened.
TERMS HELD TO BE HIGH
Provisions Demanded by C. C. Colt
for Peninsula' Industrial Com
pany Are Rejected by Board
of Commissioners.
Unless the Peninsula Industrial Com
pany accepts the terms laid down in a
proposed deed drawn by District At
torney Evans for a -right of way for
the two approaches to the interstate
bridge condemnation proceedings will
be begun at once, under an order made
yesterdav by the County Commission
ers. C. C. Colt, president of the com
pany, and the Commissioners failed to
come to terms after a long discussion
yesterday morning. . . .
The Union-avenue and Derby-street
approaches to the Interstate bridge will
both have to cross the property of tne
Peninsula Industrial Company, which Is
a subsidiary of the Union Meat Com
pany of which Mr. Colt is also presi
dent.' The Union-avenue right of way
requires 13.1 acres and the Derby-street
approach 10.8 acres, in two strips of
the company's land.
In a proposed deed submitted yester
day by the industrial company a great
many reservations and concessions
were incorporated. Chief among these
was the demand for a 98-year fran
chise for a street railway line along
the Derby-street approach. This line
would occupy 15 feet of the 42 feet in
h n-iHth of th aonroach. and the
company demanded that Its 15 feet be
fenced off from the roadway.
Numerous overhead crossing and
grade crossings are also demanded by
the company In exchange for the right
of way. The plan proposes high cross
ings of steelwork for deep-water chan
nels under each approach, the crossings
to be erected at the county's expense.
Crossings under the approach for rail
road switches are also asked. These
crossings, it is declared, would .neces
sitate the raising of the approaches by
15 feet at such a large additional cost
that E. E. Howard, the engineer, de
clared it would mean that some of the
bridge contracts would have to be re
let.
Strenuous objection was raised by the
Commissioners to the incorporation of
a strict forfeiture clause in the com
pany's proposed deed. This clause pro
vides that failure to fulfill any of the
conditions laid down in the deed would
forfeit the right of way automatically
without notice.
Another stipulation was that the
county guarantee a paved highway
from Argyle and Derby streets, inside
the Portland city limits, to the be
ginning of the Derby-street approach
on the Peninsula Industrial Company's
property, within two' years. The Com
missioners offered to guarantee a paved
roadway over the portion of that ap
proach on the company's property
within three years.
Engineer Howard declared the re
quirements of the company would more
than use up the surplus funds for the
bridge. It was with these surplus funds
that it was proposed to build the Derby
street approach.
. District Attorney Evans then drew
up a proposed ' deed, eliminating the
franchise clause, and nearly all ot the
requirements which would mean ad
ditional expense to the bridge fund.
This deed will be submitted to the
company at 11 o'clock Wednesday
morning. If it is not accepted, under
the Commissioners' order, Mr. Evans
will start condemnation proceedings at
once to acquire the property required
for the Union-avenue approach, and the
efforts to get a Derby-street approach
at once will be abandoned.
The Commissioners yesterday re
ceived a protest from the Montague
O'Reilly company against the award
of one of the paving contracts to the
Warren Construction Company. The
Montague-O'Reilly Company declares
its bid was 812.801.78 lower than that
of the successful bidder. The protest
was referred to the consulting engineer.

KETS PCTS CHECK OX TRADING.
Prices Gain, Red Russian Going 7 Cents
Over Saturday's Probable
war Spread Excites.
Chicago's gain of Si cents started the lo
cal wheat market off in a bullish way yesterday-.
So bullish were holders, In fact.
that only 10,000 bushels could be bought
from them, although bids were advanced all
the way from 2 to 8 cents above Saturda-y's
prices. The local feeling was clearly shown
by the prices asked which for prompt ae
livery were 7 to 9 cents above the bids, for
April delivery 3 to 8 cents above while the
spread for May was 2 to 6 cents.
The sales on the Exchange were as fol
lows: 10.000 bushels May red Russian $ 1.35
100 tons Anril oauc 34.00
May red wheat brought 7 cents over the
bid price of Saturday and 10 cents better
than the ias: sale ion Thursday.
The strength of the general market was
attributed to tne crisis in mo soutn o Eu
rope, Involving the probable action of Italj
and Greece, and also to a belief that Bus
la will export less wheat than expecced
when the Dardanelles are opened. The Gov.
emment figures on American farm reserves
were issued too lata to affect the Easterx
markets, but their bullish nature was in
part discounted.
In the local market, oats, as well as
wheat, were firmer. April oals sold $2
higher on the Exchange, and there was &
sale of May cats at $36 on the curb. Barley
'Ids were also advanced.
The domestic flour market continues
quiet. Patents are now quoted at $7, but
straights are unchanged at $6.50. Mill feed
prices are also unchanged.
Local receipts. In cars, were reported by

There are orders for the old and new crop.
hut sellers ask more than buyers will pay.
The undertone of the. market is firm.
The Kentish Observer of February 18 said
of the English market:
Th.n continues to be a very active de
mand for English hops, and prices are grad-
iniiv advancing. Stocks are short, and
holders are not Inclined to sell except at
ir. nnotatlons. American markets are again
dearest and the supply of Pacific Coast hops
here Is on a very moderate scale. Contl
..ntiii a rft out of the market, with the ex
ception of a small parcel or two of Belgians."
Bernhard Bins writes from JuremDurg
under date ot January 28 as follows:
"Our market Is rather active with a very
firm tone and advancing prices lor an
grades. It seems that the excellent qualities
of our this year's crop and the prevailing
extremely low prices give inducement to
many brewers to take In some hops over
th. vrar's consumption. We estimate that
more than 3000 bales went off from the
market within the last week. Green colored
hops especially are' In a very strong demand,
but relatively scarce and command higher
prices; besides the qualities are advancing
s-raduallr in their classment, which fact In
volves a further Increase of value."
ORANGE MARKET WILL BE ADVANCED
.Strength South and East Leads to Higher
xrices nere.
Orange prices will be advanced today to
$2.50 for the best grades. The California
and Eastern markets are strong, and this
tact, together with the shrinkage in local
arrivals, has made higher prices .necessary.
About seven carj of Oranges are due on the
steamer today. A large shipment of Ha
waiian pineapples will also arrive on the
steamer.
The apple market Is improving with the
Increase in local consumption. The banana
train Is due Thursday. In the meantime, the
banana market Is closely cleaned up.
Yesterday's arrivals Included a car of
Florida grapefruit, two cars of sweet po
tatoes, two cars of celery and a mixed car
of cauliflower and small vegetables. . A car
of Winningstadt cabbase, the first of the
season, was duo last night. Peppers, egg
plant and beans are coming from tho East.
Cascara Bark In London.
Mail advices from London say of cascara
bark:
' "Though the other side is offering to ship
new bark at about 5ts 6d c. L'f. London or
Liverpool, this Is not reflected on the stocks
held here, for we are gradually going bet
ter. Old bark now commands 42s 6d (plenty
in the warehouses yet). We can beat this
for yesra-elo." - :.

NO ACCUMULATION OF EGGS NOW
Buying: by Speculators Keeps Loral Market
Cleaned Up.
The egg market Is holding very steady
with nearly all sales at ISte cents. There
Is a good shipping demand from the north
and some1 buying for local storing, which'
prevents a surplus accumulating here. A
local creamery has sent out a buying price
of 18Vi cants, f. o. b. Portland, case count,
express or freight and no drayage charge,
good until March 13.
Poultry and dressed meat receipts were
small and prices were the same as Satur
day. Dairy produce lines were also, unchanged.
SUGAR
MARKET
IS
UNSETTLED
Local Conditions Cause of Cut Eastern
Market Strong.
Conditions In the local sugar market
have been unsettled for several days be
cause of lower prices quoted by California
dealers. Local Jobbers yesterday met the
price, and consequently the market is now
a quarter lower at 6.30 basis for standard
cane granulated. There haVe been no
changes In refiners' prices, in fact, the re
fining market Is strong.
Tho Portland Retail Grocers Association
will hold a meeting tonight to consider the
sugar situation and also the matter of re
tailing by wholesalers.
