TTTT5 MORNING OREGONTAX. MONDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1916. 15 NEW LINE POSSIBLE Purchase "of Steamer Pre sages Activity on River. OLYMPIAN MAY BE NUCLEUS Portland Men, Headed by Captain J. M. Aj res, Buy Old Telegraph and Will Make Repairs Vessel Once Was Oue of Fastest. Purchase of the old steamer Tele graph, now the ' Olympian, by a party of Portland steamboatmen headed by J. M. Ayres. may mean the establish ment of a new line of river steamers out of Portland. Captain Ayres came in from Seattle Saturday night, and yesterday said that he might use the Olympian as a nucleus for a line of steamers, but as his plans were in embryo he could grive little Information as to the extent they might reach. The Olympian, as the Telegraph, was operated 10 years ago on the Columbia River between Portland and The Dalles and Astoria. It was reported that she would again be returned to that run after being overhauled at one of the drydocks, but that report was errone ous. Captain Ayres said that he would negotiate with drydocks today to have the steamer repaired. The repair work is slight, the put ting in of new hog chains being the main work. She will be allowed to stand on the drydock to straighten her keel and then will be repainted. Cap tain Ayres said yesterday that it would be a month before anything would be done as to the disposition of the vessel, and perhaps not until the first of the year. ' The piyrapian was bought from a Seattle corporation by Captain Ayres and his associates at a bargain. It has .been running on the sound for years. "While operating between this city and The Dalles and between this city and Astoria she was considered one of the fastest steamers on the river. Since then changes have been made in the engines. Marine Notes. The motorshlp June, the second of the auxiliary schooners to be built at the St. Helens plant, is expected to leave this morning for the Canal terri tory. She will carry 682,948 feet of lumber. It Is owned by V. T. Snyder, of New Orleans. The W. F. Herrln, carrying fuel oil for the Associated Oil Company, ar rived up yesterday and started dis charging her oil at Llnnton. The Mon terey is expected today with fuel oil from San Francisco. . Among the vessels seized by Portu gal when that country declared war on Germany was the Uckermark. It is a well-known vessel locally, having cleared from this port a number of times. It is among those vessels that have been ceded to Great Britain by Portugal and- has been renamed the Alemtelo. The Parr-McCormlck steam schooner Daisy Freeman arrived yesterday from San Francisco with a full cargo of freight. She left Astoria yesterday morning at 9 o'clock and arrived in the river last night. Part of her cargo will be discharged at St. Johns. tThe salmon ship St. Nicholas, oper ated by the Columbia River Packers' Association, has been removed from Astoria' to Clifton, where she will be kept for the Winter. Wapama lias Big Passenger Iilst. The Wapama, owned by the McCor mick Lumber Company, arrived in at 1 o'clock yesterday, almost a day late. Khe ran into strong head winds along Cape Blanco, on the Oregon Coast, which fact caused her delay. The Wa pama carried a heavy passenger list from California ports, and will begin loading lumber immediately at Stella She will carry probably 950,000 feet of lumber on her return trip to San Pedro. Chile to Get Northwest Wheat. Shipment of wheat by the Northern Grain & Warehouse Company, to Chile, will be made some time in October, ac cording to the latest plans. The ship ment, if possible, will be made on one vessel, owned by Grace & Co. There are approximately 100,000 bushels in the proposed shipment and the mone tary value of the cargo will approxi mate $125,000. The shipment will be made from Sound points. SHIPS BOOM ABERDEEN TWO YARDS SPEND S3 il.S2S.RS IX FIRST SIX MONTHS. Flanta Employ More Than loo Men Each Monthly Payroll of lO.OOO. Keep Lumbermen Busy. V ABERDEEN, Wash., Oct. 1. (Spe cial.) The shipbuilding Industry means millions for the Northwest, Judging by what the two yards in this city have spent in the first six months of their existence. The total expendi tures of both yards in six months have been $341,828.88. according to figures secured by expert accountants of the Chamber of Commerce who were al lowed to go over the books of both companies. ' These two yards have paid out ?82, 465 for labor alone in the first six months of their existence. The com ing six months will show this sum greatly increased, for both plants now are running full force whereas during part of the first six months the work was merely being organized. The two plants during the first six months of their, existence spent $110,784 for lum ber, and $138,547 for sundry materials. The outlays of these two plants should easily pass the $500,000 for the Fecond six months of their existence, for both plants are employing upwards of 100 men each now. It is estimated that these two plants have added $ lO. OOO a month to the payrolls of the city, for besides the $82,465 paid out di recently, their demand for lumber has necessitated the employment of more men in the mills for turning out this lumber.

C ROP UNDER LAST YEAR'S RETURNS GATHERED BY INTER NATIONAL INSTITUTE. Wheat Yields of United States, Cana da and India Nearly Eqnal to those oX Averaare Seasons. It may be affirmed that harvest Is now completed, or nearly so. In most countries of Kurope, and that the process of ingather ing on any large scale is. by this time, con fined to North America, Great Britain, Rus sia and Scandinavia. The information furnished from Govern ment sources to the International Institute of Agriculture of Rome with regard of fore casts and estimates of the crops, therefore allows of forming some idea as to the yield of cereals in 1916, With respect to wheat, we have this month to take note of the Canadian forecast of 61.792,000 quintals. This appears small in comparison with the 102,414.000 quintals reaped last year. But though the deficiency is nearly 40 per cent, the yield is still 11 per cent above that of the average of 1910 to 1913. The United States have also modified their estimates, and do not now reckon on more than 123.8:13.000 quintals of Winter wheat, with 64.1CO.000 of Spring wheat. These figures are particularly unfavorable if compared with the crop of 1915. since the de ficiency amounts to 31 per cent for Winter wheat and 44 per cent for Spring wheat. However, there is not much to complain of, when a comparison with the five years' aver age 1009 to 1913 is instituted, for the yield of Winter wheat in the United States this year is 8 per cent above that average. It is true that the deficiency in the Spring crop is a serious one, for it reaches 19 per cent even when compared with the returns of the five years' period Just mentioned. In a general way. It may be granted that In the principal producing countries (Canada, United States and India), for which esti mates are in our possession, the present crops will be decidedly less than those In 1915. But the public at large might come to incorrect conclusions if the institute failed to make an important emendation to this method of presenting the figures. The crops of 3 915 having been exceptionally abundant, comparison must not be made with that season only, but rather with the average of several years, such as 1909 to 1913. By adopting this plan it is clear that the re sources of these large grain. growing coun tries will, in 1018, prove very nearly equiva lent to those of normal seasons, unless im portant modifications occur later with the effect of reducing considerably the current estimates. ' The forecasts for the wheat crop of 1916 already communicated to the institute in clude those of Italy, Spain, Japan, Tunis and Switzerland, besides the two great countries already mentioned, and from these figures a total of 429,655,000 quintals Is made up, which is 25 per cent below the total yield of these countries in 1915, but nearly equal to their average of 1909 to 1913.

Steinhardt. a New York Jobber and commission merchant, wired different shippers recently to the effect that a car of Yakima Grimes Golden apples waa sold at auction for the low average price of 93 cents a box. His plea was: "There is absolutely no reason that GOOD ap ples should be slaughtered at these prices, especially at this season of the year." , The telegram of the anctlon house, which follows, shows that the apples that sold low were green as gourds, and that GOOD apples sold at auction on the same day for the high, price of $2.60 a box. "Arthur M. Geary. "Northwestern Bank Building. Portland. Or. Sept. 30. "The car of Grimes Golden apples were dead green, and would never ripen. Important private sellers say that car should never have been sent from the West. "On the same day some Delicious apples sold for $3.60 at the auction. On yesterday the Kruit Auction Company sold car of Winter Banana apples at auction for the average price of $2.25. "During the last ten days the highest prices ever paid have been realized by auction, namely for one-half boxes of Fall pears $8.90, for one-half crates of pineapples $6.12, and for one-half boxes of grape fruit $8.12. (Signed) li. B. HEGEMAN, BROWN A SECCOMB, Auctioneers. "204 Franklin Street, New York." The applegrowers and shippers who have been reading of high prices at the beginning of each year and yet have had to add to their mort gages when the net returns were received, after months of agonized waiting, should not be misled further by those Eastern Jobbers and commission men that promise so much. Jobbing and commission houses of New York formerly marketed at private sale 100 per cent of receipts in Gotham of the California oranges, lemons, pears, prunes, cherries, peaches, plums, grapefruit and grapes; 100 per cent of Jamaica and Venezuela bananas, and 100 per cent of Florida oranges and grapefruit, and 100 per cent of Cuban, Isle of Pines and Porto Kicaa pineapples. NOW. the three auction houses of New York sell at auction 98 per cent of all the California fruits. 100 per cent of the bananas. 80 per cent of the Florida oranges and grapefruit and 70 per cent of the pine apples that are consumed in New York. In addition, the auction houses sell 95 per cent of the Northwestern grown prunes, cherries and pears distributed in New York, and 100 per cent of the cargoes of Sicilian lemons and Almeria grapes that come to port. The apples of all America that are exported to England are sold at auction. Boston has already become an auction market for box apples. The other large auction centers of the United States with the prospect of handling at auction a thousand or so cars of box apples for the shippers of the Northwest have naturally aroused the antagonism of those Job bers and commission houses that have given such doubtful satisfaction in the past. Mr. Steinhardt and his friends have not been crowded out entirely in the marketing of these fruits that are selling at the dally auctions. They simply have had to change their methods of doing business. The apple operators of New York buy f. o. b. Florida oranges. Northwestern pears and the other fruits mentioned and then sell them at auction. The apple operators would like to make the shippers believe that they will not keep on buying when the apples go on the auction. They will be speculating as before, but. where the shoe pinches, there will be many competitors buying and selling with them. ARTHUR, M. GEARY.

EXAMINER IN PORTLAND Commerce Commissioner Dlsqne to Hear Plea of Shippers for Sew . Schedule to Wipe Out San Francisco Advantage. A reduction in the distributing rate on commercial salt from Portland. Ta coma and Seattle to Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington. Idaho and Mon tana will be the suBJect of a hearing in Portland this week by Examiner Disque, of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Mr. Disque will open his session in Portland on Wednesday, and will take up a number of cases of greater or lesser importance. He is scheduled to remain .here until next Monday. The salt case, which probably Is the most important will be heard on Friday. The distributors in Portland and in the Puget Sound cities contend that the rates to the territory in question are too high. While they believe that the 'existing rate arrangement gives their competitors in Salt Lake and San Francisco an undue advantage, the al legation of discrimination is not con tained in the local complaint The rate to Walla Walla, for instance, is 22 hi cents, to Lew is ton 27H. Most of the salt handled out of the North Pacific Coast cities comes from the California deposits. The whole salers ship it into Portland and into the other cities in large quantities and distribute it in carload lots aa it is called for by their customers. But the wholesalers of San Fran cisco enjoy a combination rail and water rate that permits them to cut under the Portland dealers at almost every point The complainants want the Commission to fix the rate out of Portland at a figure tiat will make the combination of this rate and the local rate from San Francisco to Port land no greater than the through rata from San Francisco to the interior. The same is asked by the distributors of Seattle and Tacoma. Another case of importance will be that . of the Portland Lumber manu facturers against the railroads east of Chicago. The eastern railroads re cently cancelled the through rates on sash and doors from Portland to the territory east of Chicago. The local manufacturers want those rates re stored. A dozen or more minor cases will demand Mr. Bisque's attention on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday, and next Monday. EXHIBIT DAMAGED BY FIRE Loss at Salem to Portland Company Estimated at $500. SALEM.

Bis Movie Flint "Coder Suspicion" ' Tops Attraction at Which Novelty Act la First Feature. No better bill has visited the Strand for some time than the one that opened yesterday with the versatile Deagon Brothers and Sisters topping It, and a big- movie attraction. "Under Suspi cion." The whole bill is tuneful and humorous and several good dancers ap pear. Two Deagon brothers and their sister sing, dance and give novelty acts. The girl ta a dainty creature, pretty and vivacious and the others are ringers and entertainers of merit. Smart con ceptions, of new song hits are theirs and their "Ghost of the Violin" Is such that shivers and wriggles go up the spine of an applauding audience. Jack Retlaw is a tartoonUt of the kind that make a million laughs. With a sweep of his crayon he calls forth mirth and he sketches both from and for the audience. Five musical Hewetts create comedy as well as melody. No end of Instru ments, clever Interpretators. and two cunning youngsters are In the act. Rus tic comedy Is also agreeable. LeVere and Palmer with songs, dance and comedy have a taking act. The girl is full of life and attractive and ber partner is equally clever. "Under Suspicion" is a film version of E. Phillips Oppenheim's widely-read novel, There Is romance. Intrigue and much to Interest In the tense plot. But after the shadow of suspicion Is lifted there is love and tenderness. Melvln Ogden'a special pipe organ selections are In. keeping with the theme.
