TUG BIDDLE IS SOLD
Sturdy Craft Leaves Tonight
for Golden Gate.
DAM KEEPS OUT FRESHET
Reel Is I -aid and Sawing of Timbers
Is Begun on New Steam
Schooner to Be Named
i John Kiernan.
The tugr Henry J. Biddle, an Oregron
shipyard product and rated amonU the
best of her class and size on the Coast,
tonight heads for San Francisco to be
turned over to the "Western Fuel Com
pany, having' been sold by the Colum
bia Contract Company subject to de
livery within the Golden Gate. The
new owners are to use the vessel tow
ing: coal hulks.
Negotiations for the tug; have been
on for about two weeks and she is the
second of the Columbia Contract Com
pany's tug; fleet to go under a new
banner, the first having' been the
Uaniel Kern, disposed of early in the
year to Pugret Sound interests.
The Biddle was built In 1913 at the
plant . of the St. Helens Shipbuilding
Company, and is of 229 tons gross and
151 tons net register, having a length
of 106.8 feet, beam of 30 feet and
depth of hold of 11.4 feet.
The company has sold seven barges
to the Washington Tug & Barge Com
pany, one of which remains to be de
livered, and. there are said to be about
20 of the t3pe remaining that can be
converted into seagoing barges. The
company built them for handling rock
from Fisher's Landing quarry at jetties
at the entrance to the Columbia River.
With the shortage of tonnage along
the Coast with which to handle lumber
and coal, the barge fleet is finding a
ready market.
The jetty work having ended last
month and there being no present pro
vision in the rivers and harbors bill
for continuing appropriations, there is
no prospect of a demand in the near
future for such a fleet In home waters.
Daniel Kern, headi of the Columbia
Contract Company, is associated with
John Kiernan in a shipyard, at the foot
of Mill street, where a big steam
schooner, to be named the John Kier
nan, is being turned out. A dam was
built there to prevent freshet water
bothering the shipbuilders, unless It
reaches a much higher stage, and with
the keel in place the work of sawing
frame timbers was started yesterday.
NAVY LICEXSES ALU VESSELS
Office to Be Opened Here to Pass on
Applications and Issue Permits.
All vessels operating in waters of de
fensive sea areas or those comprised
in naval districts, must be registered,
orders to that effect having been
Issued by the Navy Department. In
formation received here from the com
mandant of the Thirteenth Naval Dis
trict, on Puget Sound, is that offices
will be established at Portland and
Astoria for licensing vessels.
Bearing on the action the following
circular has been Issued:
The commandant of the Thirteenth Naval
IMstrlct haa received Instructions from the
Navy Department directing that Immediate
steps be taken to license all vessels engaged
in the navigation of waters comprised in
naval districts or in the navigation of de
fensive sea areas. Persons taking out such
licenses must submit satisfactory references
as to intentions, loyalty, etc. Licenses must
be carried on board the vessel for which is
sued. Licenses for vessels belonging to yacht
or boat clubs, or to a company, may be ob
tained through such club or company.
The Navy Department has no intention of
placing undue restrictions on traffic, but
must be cognizant of the character of the
vessels navigating the waters of the United
States.
The penalty for violating the regulations
prescribed for defensive sea areas Is laid
down in paragraph IX of the regulations
approved by the President. It Is not clear
that any penalty whatsoever can be pre
scribed for failure to carry a license from
the Commandant, but vessels neglecting to
do so may be detained and sent In to the
nearest port for examination, provided that
In the Judgment of the boarding officer such
course Is necessary and desirable.
TRUCK TAKES TRICKY TTJRN
Skipper Lands Overboard When
Teaching Deckhand Technique.
From Snake River, where the steam
er Inland Empire, of The Dalles-Columbia
line, is temporarily in the service
of the O.-W. R. & N. in carrying wheat
to the railroad transfer at Riparia,
comes a story of Captain I. B. Gray's
experience as a submarine diver, he
having followed a truckload of wheat
overboard.
Charlie Steelsmith. Portland 'agent
for the fleet, narrates that Captain
Gray, who la a keen advocate of esprit
de corps, efficiency, system and other
team work aboard ship, undertook to
train a new deckhand. There being
no official training camp for that
branch of the service he selected the
bow of the steamer for his demonstra
tion. With a truck of wheat he es
sayed the role of an experienced deck
hand In rolling it aboard but the truck
did not respond at the turn, steering
gear being Jammed or something of the
sort, and overboard it went. When the
skipper came up dripping he only com
plained because the truck was not fit
, ted with monkey rudders.
BAILEY RUNS IN FRESHET
Regulator Line Stenmor Makes The
Dalles as Iiong as Locks Are Open
Repairs havingr ben ended aboard
the steamer Bailey Gatzert, some of
thft flues beinff replaced, she left as
usual last night for The Dalles after
a week's layoff. The ve&sel-Js suffi
ciently powerful to stem the current
in the Middle Columbia in ftpite of the
freshet, and so Ion? as the Cascade
Locks ran be operated she will remain
In service.
Reports from the upper country yes
terday indicated a continuation in the
fall of water and. while it is not felt
that danger of the freshet has ended
by any means, it Is the Intention of
the Regulator line management to keep
the Gatzert in service as long as pos
sible. The steamer Dalles City, of the
same flag, is at The Dalles, she hav
ing been ordered held there when the
sta.ge of water was such she could not

BERRY PICKERS NEEDED
HOOD RIVER VALLEY MAY FACE
LABOR SHORTAGE:.
Portland Parents) Asked to Send Their
Children to Help Gather and
Handle the Crop.
HOOD RrVER, Or., June 4. (Spe
cial.) The Hood River Valley faces an
acute labor shortage, according to Ken
neth McKay, manager of the Fruit
Growers' Kxchange. and strawberry
growers are in danger or losing much
of their crop. Mr. McKay says he has
had calls today for 300 berry pickers
to begin work the latter part of this
week and the first of next.
"The local help available ifl not going
to be near sufficient to handle the
crop." says the exchange manager
"and we should call on the school chil
dren of Portland if we cannot get help
elsewhere.
"If parents will consent to let their
children come we will make arrange
raents to meet them and see that they
are taken care of by responsible fam
ilies."
A. TV. Stone, general manager of the
Apple Growers' Association, does not
express as grave worry over the
situation as Mr. McKay. He states
that many Dickers are going to be
needed, but he expects material aid
from the employment agency of the
Portland- office of the United States
Immigration Bureau, which he says has
been receiving applications for the
local berry harvest for some time.

BIG SHIP SALE l!i AIR
Chamber of Commerce Will
Make Further Investigations.
LIGHT CARGOES ARE RULE
Presidents Gilman and Farrell, of
Steamship Companies, Asked to
Be Iresent at Meeting of
Business Men.
Apparently the directors of the Cham
ber of Commerce are not prepared to
follow explicitely the leadership of the
Portland Traffic and Transportation
Association, which declined to consent
to the Pacific Steamship Company
purchasing the turbiners Northern Pa
cific and Great Northern for the Pugret
Sound-California service, for a -meeting-
of that body to be held tomorrow
is to be attended by L. C. Gilman,
president of the Great Northern Pa
cific Steamship Company, and J. .
Farrell, president of the San Fran
cisco & Portland Steamship Company.
The latter corporation controls the
Beaver and Rose City, which It has
been proposed to continue to operate
from Portland direct with the steamers
President and Governor. As the heads
of tHe two lines were interviewed last
week, when the Portland Traffic and
Transportation Association investigated
the proposal of the Pacific line to ac
quire the vessels, the fact they are
again to be asked for official infor
mation bearing on the present status
of their fleets and prospects for con
tinuing the present service is taken
to mean the Chamber's directorate pro
poses to undertake Independent in
vestigations. It was reported yesterday that the
turblner Great Northern, which sailed
from Flavel for San Francisco Satur
day, actually had 407 tons of cargo
aboard and there were 104 passengers,
while in sight for the sailing of the
Northern Pacific today are 243 tons
of cargo and probably about the same
number of travelers. At that rate. It
is asserted by those in favor of the
programme of the Pacific Steamship
ompany, it cannot be expected to con-
nut the double service of the tur
biners, which are now operating on an
every other day" schedule. Each
essel has a cargo capacity of 1500
tons.
11. F. Alexander, president of the Pa
cific fleet, was in the city for a time
yesterday and left In the afternoon for
his Tacoma headquarters. He did not
ffer any public statement as to addi-
ional features of the transaction and
the apparent attitude of the company
is that it will abide by the final decl-
lon of Portlanders.

FUEL FAMINE IS FEARED
PUBLIC lllGED TO AVOID WASTE
AJfD CONSERVE SUPPLY.
Situation in California and Entire West
Alarming, Due to Lack of Labor
and Transportation.
LOS ANGELES, CaL, June 4. (Spe
cial.) Southern Pacific officials de
clared here today that California and
the entire West face the possibility of
a fuel famine and that steps should be
taken by the public at once to avoid
all waste and conserve every possible
source of supply. The shortage applies
to wood, coal and oil.
Dearth of coal as due to shortage of
labor in the coal mines of the country,
shortage of ships for coastwiss and for
eign coal and lack of equipment for
daily transportation.
The Union Pacific Coal Company, the
largest Western coal concern, has with
drawn from the commercial . market.
Railroad orders placed last August have
not been filled. There .a scarcely any
reserve supply of coal on the Pacinc
Coast. The Government Is likely to re
quire what coal Is available here.
