NORTHERN PACIFIC TARDY
Hawaiian and Scverul Coasters Are
Held Up by Condition of Wind
and Tide Milder Weather 4
, Is Expected for Today.
Attaining a maximum velocity of
0 milea late yesterday, having increas-
ed from 35 miles an hour at 8 o'clocK
in the morning and died down to 30
miles at 5 P. M., a decidedly fresh
northwester detained shipping- on this
part of the Pacific Coast and on the
lower river some trouble was experi
enced.
The new liner Northern Pacific, end
ing a cracking good run from San
Francisco entered the Columbia River
at 12:30 o'clock yesterday, but a late
message to the Merchants' Exchange
said it was shortly before o Defore the
vessel was able to gain her berth at
Flavel owing to the stiff northwest
wind and strong tide. The passengers
left for Portland by train at 6:30 o'clock.
The American-Hawaiian liner Ha
waiian bound here from the Golden
Gate, was looked for yesterday, but
late in the day the skipper sent a wire
less message that he would not reach
the Columbia iltver light vessel until
3 o'clock this morning. There are some
coasters on the way that are expected
to be among the tardy ones. The spit
was reported rough yesterday morning
and again last night with a big sea
running outside. Such northwest wea
ther is not unusual at this season, yet
is infrequent during the Summer. At
times there are stiff breezes with heavj
westerly swells that make deep water
Journeys unattractive for landlubbers,
but even mariners admit that yester
day's blow was nasty."
Captain Lapraik took the Northern
Pacific down the Coast in 25 hours on
the last voyage, and it was fully ex
pected that he would reach Flavel dock
and make fast yesterday earlier than
has yet been done by either that ship
or the Great Northern, but with wind
and tide against him in maneuvering
the powerful liner, he experienced a
discouraging delay. She is due to sail
again today and is to have a good
passenger list. District Forecaster
Beals said last night that there were
indications that the northwester would
moderate considerably during the night
and. in any event. It will have little
effect on the Northern Pacific's run
down the Coast as the weather will be
with her.
The "Big Three" liner Rose City got
away from San Francisco yesterday
with an average passenger list and fair
cargo. She is due late tomorrow and
will probably be -on time unless the
wind holds out. The Beaver, of that
fleet, sails tomorrow ' morning at 9
o'clock for San Francisco and San
Pedro.
CAPTAIN" HUMPHREY IX CITY
Alaska Interests Engage Steamer
Alliance for Coming Season.
On his way home from San Fran

passed through the city Sunday after

The Alliance is to be operated from
Seattle, leaving there May 25 for Shu
magin Islands. Akutan, Unalaska and
points on the Kuskokwim River as far

trader iu Alaska waters, having been
in that service during the early days
of the Northern rush. She also was
used on the Oregon coast run by the
Gray interests in advance of her sale
to the North Pacific. No official in
formation has reached Portland repre
sentatives of the company concerning
the charter of the ship.

JnvltRtion to deliver an address at the
l'asco-Kennewlck celebration of the
opening of the Cellio canal In the Co

CEIvltO CANAL TEST IS DUE
First Steamer May Be Locked From
Upper to Middle River Monday.
In making the last of the pressure
tests on The Dalles-Celilo Canal, about
two feet of water was allowed into the
upper canal yesterday and the same
amount is to go through today and by
tomorrow or Friday there should be
seven to eight feet over the sills. There
probably will be a steamer locked
through Monday, and as each lock is
emptied it will be scanned to ascertain
whether defects appear and learn in a
general way how the big ditch has
stood the strain.
Colonel Morrow, Corps of Engineers,
United States Army, visited the canal
Monday and found conditions satisfac
tory. In completing the undertaking
a considerable force is yet engaged, but
it is being diminished as certain de
tails are ended and virtually a com
pleted project will greet those to par
ticipate in the opening exercises on
May 6.

GOVER-VMEXT TO BUY COAX
Bureau of Lighthouses Receives Bids
.for Northwest Supplies.
Proposals for the delivery of 6500
tons of coal for the use of tenders
and lightvessels were opened yesterday
afternoon at the office of Robert War
rack, Inspector of the Seventeenth
Lighthouse District, of which 3000 tons
is for delivery at Seattle. 2000 tons at
Astoria and 500 tons at Portland.
There were eight bids In all and
prices on coal for Seattle were $3.30 to
$4, for Portland $2.65 to $3, the latter
being at the mine, and $2.60 to $2.65
at the mine for Astoria coal, transpor
tation being added from the mine on
Government bills of lading. Awards
will be made in a few days. As all
floating plants in that department burn
coal, large amounts of the fuel are
used each year, and as a rule con
tracts are entered Into during the fore
part of the season when quotations
are more attractive.
EPSOM MAY BE DISPOSED OF
Tramp Intended for Portland Load
ing to Get Temporay Repairs.
Temporary repairs having been de
cided on aboard the British steamer
Epsom, which was badly damaged while
on the reefs at Carrera Point and on
making San Francisco was found leak
ing and steamed to Victoria in that
condition, has led to the assumption
among British Columbia mariners that
she will be offered for sale. The ves
sel is under charter to Kerr, Gifford &
Company and was originally intended
to load grain here for the United King
dom, though now it is said that there
is some chance that she will take on
cargo on Puget Sound.
The steamer had a cargo of steel
rails for Port Mann and the plan is
to send her to Esquimau immediately
on being discharged. Plates in bad
condition on her starboard bow are to
be replaced, but in the forward hold,
where temporary repairs were made in
the south, no work is to be done.
Marine Notes.
H. W. Dowllng, mate of the schooner
Forest Home, which is in the harbor
from Honolulu, says that on the run
from the mouth of the river thousands
of "Portuguese men-o'-war" were
sighted, which he eaid is unusual, be
cause those frequenters of deep water
make their home in warmer climes. Mr.
Lowling is a son of the master of the
Forest Home and be is looking forward
to a pleasant voyage with a full cargo
of lumber to the West Coast, as he says
the voyage from Iquique to Honolulu
with nitrates was not to his liking.

were the steamer Northland, for San
Pedro with 800,000 feet of lumber; the

teo with 100.000 feet, and the Johan

C. II. Hcnney, Deputy Collector of
Customs, essayed the role of auctioneer
yesterday in offering for sale a crate
of rose bushes, numbering 1142, and
which were recently entered from Hol
land. They were purchased for $51,
though the value is said to have been
in excess of $200 at the time they

ceived it was understood that the
change would be made at midnight this

IN FIVE MINUTES
INDIGESTION, GAS
Tape's Diapepsin" Is the Quick
est and Surest Stomach
Relief.
If what you just ate Is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump of
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested food,
or have a feeling of dizziness, heart
burn, fullness, nausea, bad taste In
mouth and stomach headache, you can
surely get relief in five minutes.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on these
fifty-cent cases of Pape's Diapepsin,
then you will understand why dys
peptic troubles of all kinds must go,
and why it relieves sour, out-of-order
stomachs or indigestion in five min
utes. "Rape's Diapepsin" is harmless;
tastes like candy, though each dun
will digest and prepare for assimila
tion into tne blood all the food you
eat; besides, it makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most Is that you
will feel that your stomach and intes
tines are clean and fresh, and you will
not need to resort to laxatives or liver
pills for biliousness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's
Diapepsin" cranks, as some people will
call them, but you will be enthusiastic
about this splendid stomach prepara
tion, too. if you ever take it for indi
gestion, gases, heartburn, sourness,
dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.
Get some now, this minute, and rid
yourself of stomach misery and Indi
gestion In five minutes. Adv.
