Wilcox, of the Portland Flouring Mills Company, by ChrietofTer Hanne vlg. of the Norwegian ship brokerage Arm of Hannevfg & Johnson, based on an alleged broken contract involving the purchase of the steamer Annette Rolph, does not appear to perturb either Mr. Wilcox or hia counsel, Isaac l. Hunt "The facts in brief are that Mr. Wilcox purchased the vessel, which was on the stocks at San Francisco, from the Rolph Navigation Company, of that city, and through brokers her sale was proposed to Mr. Hannevig, said Mr. Hunt. "A misunderstanding arose, or a. difference of opinion. through which Mr. Hannevlg did not furnish the price in the time agreed on, so the offer was withdrawn. "Mr. Hannevlg was tendered the ship but could not pay for it, or at least did not have the cash together. Papers in the negotiations were left In New York almost a month, and. when ,it appeared the money was not raised. Mr. Hnnevig was notified as to the time and was then given three more days. It was then asserted that he had the necessary amount of money two days after the time extension ex pired." , Mayor Rolph, of San Francisco. Is interested in the Rolph Navigation Company, and though the company con tracted for the ship and sold her to Mr. Wilcox, she was repurchased by the firm, which in turn disposed of her at a ilgure Bald to be $1,750,000. Mr. Hannevlg filed the action here Monday in the Federal Court, and It recited the price was to be $1,050,- 000. It is charged that, though he was prepared to proceed with the transac tion. Mr. Wilcox had failed to turn over title to the vessel, selling her back" to the Rolph interests for $1, 350,000. SHIPS MAY HELP PORTLAND One Firm Looks for Goods Ordered in Germany Two Years Ago. Portland firm are concerned with the succe-ss of the initial voyage of the big German merchant submarine Deutschland, which reached Baltimore Sunday from Bremen, for promises that a fleet will be maintained in service, the next of which will be the Bremen, has encouraged some to expect goods that were ordered in Germany previous to the war. One of these Is J. Butxer, a seed and plant dealer, who says he has waited two years for choice flower seeds. He thinks the entire order can be for warded In a freight box one yard square, yet its value will be about 1900. Such shipments as that, he believes. ili be taken care of on the subma rines, as the operators of the line will reap best returns from high-class and valuable commodities. Other dealer look for consignments of German dolls and toys for the Christmas trade. Den tists expect to receive certain drugs used in killing nerves in teeth, and pensons in many different pursuits see In the submarine service a means , of delivering goods sadly neeUed.
