ORIGIN OF BLAZE MYSTERY Recession oT Tide Kagerly Awaited in nope That Some of Cargo May Kemnin Mystery of Ninth Body Not Yet Explained. 1 JIAk:;I1FIELD. Or.. Norv. 11. (Spe cil.)The lemains ot the wrecked steamship Santa Clara consists o the hull, burned down to within a few feet ot the water's edge, while the smoul dering -uins still preclude any board ing. The wreck was fired last night nt 10 o'clock and lias been burning since At 2 o'clock this morning the flames had generated gas in .the fuel oil tank and a terrific explosion threw debris and freight high into the air. lighting the heavens for miles about. The identity of the man who touched off the conflagration remains a secret, a docs everything else connected with the affar that officials would desire to know. t'romlH Await Dying of Vim. miring the nignt there was a crowd f ir0 people at the shore line, await ing the exhaustion of the fire, but they were disappointed. Those who lined the beach today numbered about 200 and are awaiting low tide with the ex pectation much freight will be uncov ered that will be worth saving. There is no system to the salving, everybody takins what he can get or chooses neither does anybody lay claim to having authority to keep people away from the ship. Postmaster Hugh McLain has not interfered in any manner with the salv ing but has received 33 parcel post sacks from salvers for Marshneld and North Bend. Attempt to Save Mail to Be Made. Five thousand pounds was the con signment. Inspector Neil will be here tomorrow and it is expected he will make some move towards saving the remainder of the mail if any still re mains on board the wreck, and per haps investigate the reports that many racks were rifled and cut. The mystery of the ninth body has not been satisfactorily explained, but one woman, said it was her opinion that people who insist there was another man s body mistook Mrs. Cullen's body for a man's. This woman said it would have been an easy mistake to make, as Mrs. Cullen wore her hair short, and. in the nighttime, being gray, it could have been deceptive in the poor light which the searchers had. Mrs. Cullen, she said, wore heavy shoes, that appeared to belong to a man, and may have put them on before leaving the ship. ri.I)F.lt.VL HANI TO BE IIEAVY Hoavy Sentences in Store for Thefts I'rom Mall on Steamer. Looters of the wrecked steamship Sun la Clara who are alleged to have taken parcel post .sacks from the steamer will feel the - heavy hand of the Government. An investigation has been made of the situation by the office of Vnited States Marshal Montag and a report is now in the hands of United fc-tates Dislrict Attorney Reames. A Oovernment inspector readied Marshlield yesterday to conduct an in quiry into the alleged theft of parcel post packages from the wreck, and ac tion will depend upon his report. It is stated there were approximate ly 00 sacks of parcel post mail on the boat when it was wrecked just inside the entrance to Coos Bay, and that of this number not more than 70 sacks have been recovered by the postal au thorities. The question is still unset tled whether the remainder of the package mall is still in the hold of the steamship or was carried away by looters. The opinion is held by some that looters in many cases emptied the par cel post sacks while on the steamer and used them to carry away plunder of greater value. In this way, it is thought, the, story became current that larse quantities of parcel post mail were can icd away. It is thought by some that practically all the missing mail may be found in the steamer's hold. Penitentiary sentences of five years Await ah convicted of larceny from the Vnited Slates mails, according to Gov ernment officials.

BUSINESS REASONS GIVEN Outgoing President Is Terminating Four Years' Service on Coin . mission Last AUvico Is Buy Swan Island. . M. Mears. president of the Port of Portland Commission, will relin quish responsibilities as a member and executive officer of that brfdy Iiecembcr 10. He was elected to the Commission in July. 1911. Announcement of the step was made yesterday by Mr. Mears at a regular mveting- of the board. He later grave as a reason for severing his relations with the port body that press of other business compelled him to devote more attention to it. "While I have been interested in the important work the Commission 1s carrying on, so much time must be devoted to it that it is as exacting as jury duty,' said Mr. Mears. In making known his intentions to his colleagues on the board Mr. Mears said: "I want to announce that December 10 will be my last day with you. I wish to thank you for your courtesy and assistance given me that has made our relations congenial. Before 1 go I desire to call your attention to Swan Island, which, you know, has been of fered .to the port, and I think it is a favorable time to buy it. I am satis fled we can acquire it on easy terms." Inland 11 aim Shown. Maps had been prepared showing ideas as to how the island might be utilized in the future, after dredged material had been deposited there to raise the level, even to a height of 30 feet. Mr. Mears said it would afford a better location for the public dry dock, basins could be provided for ves sels on either side and at the upper end, also room for an incinerator plant and other improvements. After deliberation the members voted down the prospective purchase, as it had been suggested $1000 an acre be offered, paying $10,000 a year with in terest at 3 per cent on deferred pay ments. It was said the owners, the Reed Institute, held there were 270 acres in the island since the harbor lines had been changed, though origi nally there were 372 acres. Some of the Commissioners favored the west channel alongside the island being opened, regardless of the port purchasing- the tract, and it is understood steps will be taken at once on the channel improvement. There will be a special meeting at 10:30 o'clock this morning to take up unfinished business, and the regular session will be held December 10, at both of which Mr. Mears will preside. The matter of naming his successor will be taken up by the remaining six members, and the law provides that the new appointment must be ratified at the next session of the Legislature. ComuiiKxIon Insures Tus. The Commission decided to set ade a fund and carry its own insurance on the tugs Oneonta and Wallula, which are operated at the mouth of the river. Foreign insurance firms were expected to take over the risk on a basis of 4 1 2 per cent, the Oneonta valued at $75,000 and the Wallula at $50,000. but they in. sisted on the former value being fixed, $95,000 for the Oneonta and $55,000 for the Wallula. It was voted to consider the tax levy at the December meeting, and it is felt certain it will not exceed 1.1 mills, which will be the lowest for several years. There was a division as to whether the engineroom of the new dredge Tu alatin, now under construction, and which is classed as the finest digger in the world of the 30-inch type, anl equipped with a turbine engine, should be inclosed with a brass, steel or gal vanized iron railing. The vote stood three to three. Commissioners Inman, Shaver and O'Reilly voting for brass and Commissioners Spencer. Patterson and Pease for galvanized iron. Steel was not seriously considered. Mr. Mears then cast his vote with the brass faction, so it carried. Vote Is Questioned. "As the new state laws compel us to carry more men we might just as well keep them busy," suggested Mr. Men rs. "There won't be many of them want ing to spend their time polishing brass railings," ventured Captain Shaver. "Well, why did you vote for it?" de manded Captain Spencer. But as the Willamette and Columbia, two other 30-inch dredges, are so finished, and the Tualatin is expected to be ex hibited as the pride of the Port and the leader of her type on the globe, the best was thought due her. Captain H. P. Astrup. an independent pilot at the mouth of the Columbia River, requested that he be accorded the privilege of going to and from ships on the Port tugs the same as seven pilots who have operated there as an organization since the Port gave ir the work. The request was referred to E. W. Wright, general manager, who declitfefl to consent, arguing that the business at present is not sufficient to keep men busy and that in October their revenue netted about $50 for each pilot. He informed Captain Astrup that he would not prejudice his stand ing with the Commission if he con tinued to act independently. Mr. Wright informed the Commission that he ex pects to retire one tug for a time, be cause of shipping being delayed through the closing of the Canal. Marine Notes. C. C. Wilson, of the Clark St. Wilson Lum ber Company, and president of th Oregon State Board of Pilot C ommissions, returned yesterday after bavin spent a month in California with side trips into Arizona and other localities.

Completing her earso at the plant of the Multnomah Box & Lumber Company yes terday, the Arrow 1-lne steamer Daisy Put nam sailed for California. To look after the Neah Bay pas buoy, re ported extinguished, also to deliver supplies at the Destruction Island llcht station, the tender Manzanita passed out of the Co lumbia, yesterday morning. The tender Heather arrived from northern waters Wednesday nisht. , Under orders to pYoceed to the Govern meft moorings, the dredsre Chinook left up from Astoria early yesterda. She will be laid up until Spring. As the Government dredKo Mathloma is working her way -tiown stream. sh is looked for here net v. cek and is to change her scar and steam to tVu- Willamette above Corvallu, where t'he will ciear the channel of ttnairx as far as Kueno. to which point the Yellow Stack line intends extending its servYte. soon.

( Music-Loving Folks Make a Stir, and No Wonder Still Further Reductions on Musical Instruments of All Kinds Many latest and best player pianos at actually half price. All others, as well as baby grands and uprights enormously reduced for quick sale. Shelves full of fine violins, guitars, mandolins, etc, at less than whole sale price; sheet music folios, etc (except a few contract price goods), most radically underpriced to speedily consolidate three great stocks under one roof. A sale held in two places. TiORE people have called during the past two days and more pianos and player pianos were sold Wednesday in the two great houses where this sale is now going on than has been the case for years. In fact, it is probable that so much business in matters musical was never done heretofore as just now. This applies to the sale of organs, ukuleles, man dolins and kindred instruments, as w'ell as to sheet music, folios, studies, etc. Fonograf and record depart ments also were kept very. busy. Ihe reasons for this great selling have been frankly stated heretofore. "THREE great music house stocks are to be consolidated in one place. To do this a vast number of pianos and all sorts of musical in struments and musical merchandise must be disposed of., In nearly all instances still greater reductions than ever have now been made. Carload after carload of lat est instruments for which orders were placed early in the year will be arriving shortly, in fact, some are already coming in. This makes all the greater haste necessary. EVERYTHING in the establish- . merits of Graves Music Company at 147 Fourth street, near Morrison, a.nd Eilers Music House, Eilersi Building, Broadway at Alder (the other establishment on Morrison street having already been closed) has been put on sale at genuine and most drastic reductions. ELEGANT Mahogany and brand new player pianos, regularly selling for S650 and $750, such as Chase & Baker, Lester, Sterling and Hallet & Davis, have now been marked, all of them, at $350 each. This is virtually half price. Easy payments. A number of $800 Behning, Bald win, Kimball, and also several slight ly used genuine Bungalow Player Pianos, Autopiano Player Pianos, and Weber Pianola Pianos will be sold at exactly half price. Every reasonable offer as to terms will be cordially entertained; pay ments of $10 a month will buy any one of these many fine instruments, tion of a GO-foot gasoline boat, equipped with a Tn-horsepower engine. The boat will be turned out at Coble by Harry Higgins, of this city. It was reported .yesterday that the British bark Elginshire, recently taken to load wheat her;, sailed from Fustan for the Columbia. Wednesday. News From Oregon Ports. ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 11.
