Not only is Portland 1,132.492 bushel
Jhead in wheat for nine months of
the 1914-15 cereal season, but in March
419,593 bushels more wheat was floated
here than was the case in March, 1914.
Besides, there is a grain- in flour over
the corresponding: month last year of
83.860 barrels and S54.7ST bushels of
barley were shipped last month, as
against none a year ago. Exports
were In excess of $2,500,000, or more
ttian (2.000,000 above Che valuations of
last March, a greater movement cou
pled with much ihigher prices being
responsible.
The only wheat to leave Portland a
year ago were California shipments
aggraatlng 684.076 bushels, while last
month domestic and offshore ship
ments reached 1.103.669 and Included
European. South Africa, New York and
California, consignments. From the
Puget Sound district 930.173 bushels
was the- total floated. For the season
to date Portland has sent to all ports
- 12.948,322 bushels of wheat and Puget
Bound ilias dispatched 8.709.546 bushels.
For "the same period last season Port
land was credited with a combined
movement of 11,815.830 bushels and
Puget Sound 5,720,910 bushels. In the
Merchants' Exchange summary for
March the shipment of wheat and flour,
' the latter reduced to wheat measure,
im placed at 3.590.972 bushels from the
' entire Northwest
From the Northwest there has been
sent by water this season 33,317,506
-" bushels, flour Included, and that is the
" best showing: for nine months since
'the 1907-08 period, when 37,608.535
bushels were exported. There will be
"a fairly good showing made this month,
considering that, as a rule, little is
done in April in the way of wheat
exports.
Lumber exports made a Jump and
reached 18.756.697 feet, valued at S201,
018, while domestic lumber shipments
were 8.981.262 feet. Last March ex
ports were 16,714.899 feet and the coast
wise total 19.522.196 feet. During the
"month lumber moved to the Far East,
: Manila. London and Quebec, and more
i could be disposed of for early delivery
at present if ships were available with
wiilch. to transport it The scarcity of
steam tonnage, which is in demand
" for the United Kingdom, Australian
"and Oriental delivery especially, is
drawing more sailers into the fleet
than before, squareriggers being util-
- ised for lumber sent to England, and
many coast-owned barken-tines and
' echooners finding ready charters in the
Pacific lumber trade as well as that
around to the Atlantic side.

' Captain Charles Johnson Is Given
Skipper's Billet on Tug.
i As soon as grain ships and other sall
, Ing vessels on the way reach the river
" the bar tug Wallula is to be brought
here and laid up. It was planned to
have the vessel ordered out of commis
sion about this time, but she has been
continued in service to guard against
any delays being experienced by in
bound ships or those that will be sent
away during the early part of this
month.
Ultimately the Wallula will have a
. new boiler and other repairs made, un-
- less it is determined to replace her
with a larger and more powerful tug.
Captain Charles Johnson, who was mate
on the Breakwater for a long period
; and has been connected with the San
I-'ranclsco & Portland and the Arrow
, line as superintending stevedore, is to
be advanced from mate on the Wallula
to master, while Captain Barnes, for
merly on the Breakwater also, is to re

Losing no time in preparing for the
reception of dredsed material, the Port
land Flouring Mills Company has a
force of men engaged in the construc
tion of a bulkhead beneath its plant at
the lower end of the harbor. The bulk
head will be extended on the south side
about liO feet so as to provide a foun
dation for an extension of the plant to
be constructed before the end of the
year.
Application has been filed with the
Port of Portland Commission for the

channel in that neighborhood. It is
supposed that the dredge Portland will

E W. Wright, manager of the Mer
chants' Exchange, was yesterday elect
ed general manager of the Port of
Portland to succeed the late Marcus
Talbot. Mr. Wright is to assume im
mediate charge of the affairs of the
Port, being directly responsible to the
Commission for all departments.
The death of Mr. Talbot resulted in
the superintendents of towing, dredg
ing and drydock reporting to the Com
mission. and steps to designate a man
ager were not taken at once because of
negotiations pending for the Puget
Sound Tugboat Company to assume the
management of the towing service on
the bar and river. On negotiations be
ing ended last week, when the Commis
sion decided to retain the service, the
members determined to till the posi
tion so that a number of improvements
contemplated might be carried into ef
fect. There were other applicants for the
place, including C. S. Jewett, C. A.
Cooledge. Andrew J. McCabe. F. M.
Randlett and Richard Chilcott.
For years he has been a figure In
all shipping legislation In the North
west and, because of his knowledge
and ability to present important sides
of such questions, he was selected by
the railroad and grain Interests in
1906 to proceed to Paris in an effort to
induce vessel owners " to eradicate a
differential of Is 3d In grain freights
against this harbor, as compared with
Puget Sound. Again in 1907 he went to
London on the same mission and, as a
consequence, the owners have since
recognized Portland, in chartering
their ships, on the same basis as Puget
Sound. Up to that time the differential

yesterday the salary of Harry F. Cam

was lowered 10 per cent a few months

ordered restored to $200 and that of
his clerk to 8100.

EUGENE. Or., March 31. (Special.)
Reminiscences of steamboating- on the
Willamette and Columbia rivers just
half a century ago were told today by
Captain E. W. Baughman, recently ap
pointed admiral of the Dalles-Celllo
celebration to take place next month.
He carries proudly his appointment
signed by Wallace Strubble and Ad
miral W. P. Gray, and he shows with
equal pride his retirement granted with
honors by the O.-W. R. & N. Company.
Captain Baughman says he was the
only man who ever ran a steamboat to
Springfield, three miles above Eugene.
This was in the Spring of 1865, Just 50
years ago at this time, during one stage
of high water. He went to the Spring
field flour mills, still running, after a
load of flour. His chief loads in his
weekly trips up the river to Eugene
were supplies for the upper river in
return for wheat which Eugene shipped
out.
Passenger on Early Trip Met.
Captain Baughman returned yester
day to visit "Grandma" Mary Jane
Mathews, his double cousin, whom he
has not seen for a third of a century.
He states that everything has changed,
but that he met one of the passengers
on that single trip to Springfield, Isaac
Stevens, residing in Eugene.
The boat that made this trip drew
20 Inches of water and was 120 feet
long. He tells of one trip coming up
when he found a tree all the way across
the river above Harrisburg, and of hav
ing to get out on the bank and cut it
away. Another time, he states, he ran
upon a snag In the middle of the river.
It lifted the boat out of water. Then
there was a crash, and the boat dropped
back.
"It's gone through the bottom," he
says he thought. "And I ran her to the
shore to beach her before she went
down. But it was the -snag that broke
in two and not the boat, and then I
had to run a line across the river to
get off.
. 921,000 1. Made on One Trip.
"The great days, though, were on the
Columbia," he continued. "On one trip
up the river in 1862 I made my company
$21,000 clear. We went up the Snake
River from Celilo with 367 passengers.
It was the year after the mines were
discovered, and the boat, the Tenino,
was loaded every trip. On that one trip
we made $11,000 from passengers alone.
We charged $96 a ton for freight from
Celilo to Lowiston. In 1853 we collected
$84 a ton from Portland to The Dalles.
This was the year the Government was
putting in its barracks."
Captain Baughman has been retired
for 10 years. He will be 82 years of
age in May.

DOCK TSSTTE BEFORE CTIEHAMS
Abolition of Port Commission Also
Is Being- Considered.
ABERDEEN. Wash.. March 31. (Spe
cial.) Whether docks, will be built or
not and whether the Port Commission
will or will not be abolished are agi
tating Chehalis County people. A pro
posal for a dock in Hoquiam has raised
wide opposition.
Hugh DeLanty, manager of the Grays
Harbor Stevedore Company; T. B. Dar
raugh and S. K. Bowes want the Port
Commission retained, but do not want
the docks built at present. L. G. Hum
barger, former president of the Cham

president, think that it would not be
a bad plan to build the docks now pro
vided they are located between Aber
deen and Hoquiam.
The plans for the docks have been
drawn already and provide for an ex
penditure of about $75,000. The Com
