ALPHA CHRISTENED,

Impressive Ceremony Takes
Place at Peninsula Ship
building Plant.
GREAT THRONG IS PRESENT
3Iiss Myrtle Knudseu XJses Logan
oerry Juice In Naming Craft.
Uui-kness Stops Attempt to
Get Sliip in Water.
Hardening of tallow, used with other
ingredients as a lubricant for the ways.
Is attributed as the reason the new
four-masted auxiliary schooner Alpha
failed to leave the ways at the plant
of the Peninsula Shipbuilding Company
yesterday afternoon, though she moved
about six feet toward the river and
was duly christened with a bottle or
Oregon loganberry juice. ,,.
It was one of the most auspicious
settings for the initial bath of a new
Bhip. the yard- being crowded as well
as the new 1000-foot dock of the Penin
sula Lumber Company, while vessels
in the river carried sightseers and on
the hill back of the plant were throngs.
Though 3 o'clock had been fixed for
the launching, one hour's postponement
was decided on to take advantage of
the full tide, and the failure of the ship
to complete her journey then caused
efforts to be continued until 5 o clock,
when she was again "wedged up
to hold her in place until tomorrow,
by which time the cradle and ways
will be gone over, a new mixture being
substituted for lubricant.
It is not the first time a deepwater
man has failed to respond to the usual
. i--.. e . t..rtinf her career. At the
Jill. LI1UUO l L " - . .
same time the aquatic comedians had
their little Joke because a "dry' launcn-
4 .r,9n?d in the proverbial bot
! af rham-nagne being changed for
one of loganberry juice.
Only Daikotn Stop Work.
But Fred' Knapp, to whose untiring
energy the establishment of the Penin
sula plant is due. is bent on launching
the Alpha in snipsnape, u."u
persisted yesterday only for the fact
darkness hampered the work.
Incidentally the Alpha will be fol
lowed by five other ships under pres
ent plans. Ciough until yesterday only
a total of four more was known to be
assured. The substantial construction
of the foundations of the ways on
which the Alpha rests was saown yes
terday when the ship was "wedged up
several inches before the launching
bignal. with no show of strain on the
foundations.
When the Alpha first quivered and It
seemed that she was on her way. Miss
Myrtle Knudsen. the 14-year-old daugh
ter of Theodore Knudsen, superintend
ent of the plant, swung the ribbon-bedecked
bottle against the stem of the
chip and christened her. Preceding
that, addresses had been made from a
platform built immediately in front of
the bow, which was gay in bunting
and National colors, while from bow
to stern on the ship Norwegian and
American flags were displayed, with
the ship's set of signal flags.
O. M. Clark, president of the Cham
ber of Commerce, the trade and com
merce bureau of whica has been in ac
tive touch with ship construction from
its incipiency here, presided at t.ie ex
ercises. Ho spoke generally of th
rapid and substantnal growth of ship
building at Portland and along the
vivr nrl narticularly of the part Mr.
Knapp had played in the development.
"It is a proud day for Portland and
Mr. Knapp and he should be hero now
r rpcpivc our praise, but instead I
understand he is under the ship wield
inn- a sledsre." said Mr. Clark.
"Portland has been slow in grasping
opportunities, but the time has come
now for ar change." said Mayor Albee.
"Durinsr mv residence of 21 years here
1 have seen opportunity knock at the
door time and time again, almost bat'
tering it down, while certain citizens
rallied to prevent it entering."
Mayor Albee spoke of the position oi
Portland as a seaport despite tne dis
tance from the Pacific, and in that re-
erard he cited the location of Fhiladel
phia. Baltimore and other inland har
bors of prominence.
"As to the entrance of the Columbia,
when the Government began work
there in 1866 there was 10 to 15 feet at
low water, while today we have 40 feet
which is six feet more than is found at
the entrance to Sar Francisco Bay.
There is great need for ships now. At
the beginning of the war the mer
chant marine fleets represented 60.000.-
000 tons and since then about 6.000,000
tons have been destroyed, 4.400,000 tons
interned and 12,000,000 tons comman
deered.
Missing Link Supplied.
"Another year of war will Increase
the figures and we have here products
that the world wants, but between
there has been a link missing, trans
portation, and with the launching of
these vessels is supplied the missing
link."
J. B. Kerr, of Carey & Kerr, attor
neys. who is a member of the board
of directors of the shipbuilding cor
poration, spoke on behalf of the com
pany, and said:
"Those connected with this enterprise
take just pride in the realization of
their efforts. When this ship strikes
the water her waves and ripples will
reach both shores and will even carry
their message into the Columbia and
to the sea. She will sail the seven
neas, and let us hope she will carry a
message of cheer and good fortune
for all."
Mr. Clark thereupon proposed three
cheers for Mr. Knapp, and they
drowned out the blows of scores of
pledges along the ways as the blocking
was being removed.
The second ship, which is in full
frame and is being covered, will be
launched in January, and all is ready
for the immediate laying of the keel
of vessel No. 3 on the ways occupied
by the Alpha- The third set of ways
is being put in, and by December 20
the keel of the fourth ship will be laid
there. Then a start will have been
made on the fourth ways.
FRIPPER TELLS OF BIG TIDES
Captain Graham Recalls Action of
"Willamette in Former Days.
That tides at Portland during ex
treme low water periods have reached
four feet and at times four and a half
feet, is asserted by steamboatmen
come of whom have been questioned
the last few days as to just what tidal
changes have been noted here. Big
tides have been recorded, it is
Berted, when the moon was full an
eouthwest winds on.
Captain A. W. Graham, of the Yellow
Stack line, said that in former years,
when he operated the steamer Altoona,
he has known of fully one and one
half feet of tide at Oregon City. H
remembers it because in those days it
was often necessary to wait for a tid
to get over Magoon's bar, where there
is now a low-water depth of six feet.
At Portland it is said the tide is usual
ly from one and one-half feet to two
feet in ordinary stages of water.

WITHOUT SIGHTING SANTA BAR.
BARA, WALLl'LA RETURN'S.
Schooner Is Supposed to Be In Distress
Off Coast Lumber and Life-Preserver
Float Ashore.
ASTORIA, Or.. Dec 7. (Special.)
No trace of the wooden steam schooner
Santa Barbara, supposed to be in dis.
rss off the coast, was found by the
tuar 'W allula. which today made a trip
as far as Cape Mears in search of the
vessel, and returned tonight.
A life-preserver marKed banta liar
bara." with a considerable amount of
umber and what appeared to be the
wreckage of a ship's cabin floated
ashore vesterdav on Brighton Beach.
This gave rise to the supposition that
the Santa Barbara was in dimcuities.
Some shipping men, however, enter-
ained the idea that the vessel proD-
ably had gotten into a heavy sea and
lopt her deckload.
The Santa Barbara sailed early
Wednesday morning from Willapa Har
bor, en route to South Bend, Wash.
GEORGE F. FULLER IS BURIED
Friends of ex-Inspector of Boilers Pay
Final Tribute.
Men who had served with him in
their early days of deckhand- and fire
men until they gained the goal of
licensed officers, some of whom had
preceded him in steamboating and
others to whom tickets were first
granted during his tenure of office,
gathered yesterday when the funeral
of George E. Puller, former inspector
of boilers here, was conducted at Fin
ley's by Rev. John H. Boyd, pastor of
the First Presbyterian Church. Rela
tives and friends filled the chapel, but
at Riverview Cemetery only members
of the family and immediate friends
gathered at private services.
Numerous floral pieces were in evi
dence, the Columbia River Pilots' Asso
ciation, Oilers' and Firemens" Union,
Knights of Pythias, Portland Lodge,
Ancient Free and Accepted Masons,
having joined with friends in remem
bering Mr. Fulton in that -nanner. Rev.
Mr. Boyd read passages of scripture
and recited "Crossing the Bar," by
Tennyson, and "The Eternal Goodness,"
by Whittier, after which he offered a
pjjayer, there being no music.

MURDER CHARGE.
OF
Self-Defense la Plea and Jnry Reaches
Verdict After Conrt Warns Against
Reins; Swayed by Sympathy.
NEWARK. Dec. 7. Mrs. Margaret
Beutinger was acquitted today by a
jury of the murder of her husband,
Cristof Beutinger, a well-to-do coal
merchant, whom she shot at their home
in Caldwell last July. At a previous
trial the jury disagreed.
Mrs. Beutinger did not deny that she
shot and killed her husband, but de
clared she acted in self-defense. On
the witness stand she told a story of
brutal treatment by Beutinger from the
time of her marriage to him.
The case was placed In the hands
of the jury this afternoon after the
court had warned the jurors not to be
swayed by sympathy lor a woman. The
verdict was returned after three hours'
deliberation.
After thanking the jurors Mrs. Beu
tinger hurried across the courtroom to
her five children, from whom she had
been separated during the trial, em
bracing and kissing them. '

MOVE DEPENDS CN RATES
Hearing Develops Fact That Mer
chants Propose to Act If Ter
minal and Intermediate
Tariffs Are IieYeled.
SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 7. (Special.)
Two million dollars has been pledged.
mainly by San Francisco and partly by
New York business interests, to finance
coast-to-coast steamship line, ac
cording to the testimony today of Isidor
acobs, president of the California Can
neries Company, at the transcontinen
tal freight rate hearing before Ex
aminer Henry "W. Thurtell, of the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
This steamship line, Mr. Jacobs an
nounced, will be assured if the termi
nal rate and the intermediate rate are
leveled as the result of the series of
rate hearings now being held.
He said this was certain, if the pro
posed increase in the coast-to-coast
rate of 10 cents per 100 pounds on car
load lots and 25 cents on less than car
load lots became effective December 30
and the car shortage and embargoes on
shipments via the Sunset and Santa r e
Gulf routes continued.
Announcement Causes Stir.
The announcement of Mr. Jacobs,
who was instrumental In organizing
the merchants into a similar organiza
tion in 1892 for the purpose of forcing
reduction in railroad rates from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, caused a pro;
found stir among the attorneys for the
railroads and representatives of the in
terior cities in attendance at the hear
ing.
Amplifying his statement made be
fore Examiner Thurtell, Mr. Jacobs
said:
'Should the Interstate Commerce
Commission, following this series of
hearings, decide to level the coast-to
coast, or terminal rate, and the inter
mediate rate, a steamship line of four
vessels would be in operation within a
period of from 60 to 90 days. Others
would be obtained if needed. On a
recent trip to New Tork I found, while
working on this project, that ten ships
of suitable tonnage were then avail
able for our needs. Charters are expir
ing daily and if the Government places
an embargo on wheat, for example, we
will be able to secure as many vessels
as we need and at comparatively rea
sonable prices.
Outcome la Not Feared.
"We plan, unless we secure relief in
the way we seek, to repeat the 1892
undertaking, when the business men
floated a steamship company operating
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, forced
the railroads to meet water compe.
tition and established through our ef
forts the principle of terminal rate
making. This line was operated for
two years in competition with the car
riers and we handled 500,000 tons o
freight. True, we lost J180.000, but it
was temporary only, and we won our
fight and have been compensated for
the loss an inestimable number of times
since by the rates we have since en
Joyed.
We have no fear of the outcome o
such a fight if we are forced into it
Then we had to send our ships around
South America. Now we shall use the
Canal."
