JAPANESE DUE HERE
Kenkon Maru VIII to Take On
Cargo of Iron and Lumber.
DUTCH SHIP AWAITS CREW
Steamer Soerokarla May Stay TTntll
Chinese Can Come From Orient
to Man her, or Other Ves
sels May Be Drawn On,
The Japanese steamer Kenkon Maru
VIII is on the way from San Francisco,
and Is expected in the river today to
load here for the Orient, iron and lum
ber being: the principal commodities
to go. The Ijutch steamer Soerakarta.
of the Java-Pacific line, Is loading
lumber at Inman-Poulsen's mill for the
Far East, she being the second of that
flag to receive cargo here this sea
eon. The Kenkon Maru VIII was last here
In March, 1915, when she worked a
cereal cargo for the European side, and
managed to navigrate the war zone
without difficulty accounted for, to
some extent, by tho fact that the Ger
man undersea campaign had not at
tained such proportions as at present.
The vessel comes, to Portland in the
service of the Robert Dollar Company.
In the way of iron, 10 carloads are
to go, and they will be worked at
Municipal Dock No. 1.
On the waterfront it is said the load
ing of the material direct from the cars
to the ship will be the first time that
system has been tried here, and, with
the facilities available at Dock No. 1,
speed is expected to be exhibited in the
work. -
It Is not known definitely when the
Java-Pacific liner Soerakarta will be
dispatched, as she is shy part of her
crew. The run from San Francisco
was made short-handed in the deck de
partment, and it is expected now a
Chinese crew either will be sent from
the Orient, 'or part of the deck force
of other vessels of the same line on
the Coast will be assembled here to
take the Soerakarta across. If Ori
ental sailors and other hands are to be
used, it is estimated she is short now
more than 30, while if Caucasians are
employed, only half the number will be
necessary.
The Java-Pacific trades from this
coast to Japan and China and south to
the Philippines and Java, making a
number of ports, some of the vessels
carrying both passengers and cargo.
The present schedule out of San Fran
cisco is one sailing a month, but in nor
mal times a more frequent service will
be maintained. There is a strong de
mand for lumber in the Far Fast, but
mills are not contracting for prompt
delivery, as so many of them are
crowded with orders since an emer
gency exists in getting out ship mate
rial for Government vessels.
MANY WOULD JOIX GAMECOCK
Souths Besiege Captain McXanght
tor Berths as Apprentices.
One of the most popular men on the
beach yesterday was Captain W. C.
McNaught, representing the Shipping
Board here in Outfitting the seized
German ships, whose office telephone
In the Board of Trade building was
kept ringing as earnest Portland
youths sought information regarding
berths for apprentices on the Ameri
can bark Gamecock.
Eight will be signed. As the Game
cock is to tow to a lower river mill in
e. few days to work a lumber cargo.
Captain McNaught is desirous of hav
ing the apprentices signed, so they
may take advantage of the time in
port to become familiar with the ship.
Applicants must be between 16 and 20
years of age and have the consent of
their parents to Join the vessel, in re
turn for which they are to be accord
ed every opportunity to fit themselves
as officers of the American merchant
marine.
ELEVATOR CROWDS BOOM OUT
Shaver Line Must Find Xew Site tor
Collecting Log Rafts.
Since the Commission o'f Public
Docks elected to purchase the
Malarkey-Ogden-Gatton property at St.
Johns, on which to erect a grain
elevator and establish additional
water terminal facilities, that body
Incidentally commandeered the raft
booming ground of the Shaver Trans
portation Company.
As the Shaver line has to do with
towing log rafts for different mills
here, it must maintain a boom for
holding a number of rafts so that they
can be shifted to mills as required.
Also, the fact certain periods are more
favorable for towing than others, it
behooves towboat interests to have
eufficient space in which to hold them.
The march of progress along the river
in the way of shipyards and such
enterprises materially has lessened
open space. f
TWO CAPSIZED BOATS FOtTXD
One Found at AVestport, Wash.,
Bears Oregon License.
ABERDEEN. Wash., July 31. Ad
vices from "Westport, on the ocean
beach near here, report the finding of
an Oregon, fishing boat, state license
646, floating . upside down off Grays
Harbor bar last Saturday. Another
fishing smack- was located by the
Westport Coast Guard crew, bottom
eide up, in the breakers on North Beach
near Copalis. Four boats have been
missing from the Columbia River since
July 23, when a severe northwester
ewept the coast. Six boats, sent out
from the river to search for the miss
ing craft, put in at Westport Sunday
with reports that no trace had been
found of the missing fishermen who
are believed lost.
WHEAT SENT FIRST MONTH
Portland Makes Better Record Than
in Corresponding Period.
Portland inaugurated the 1917-18 ce
real year with the shipment of 270,721
bushels of wheat to all ports, while the
same month last season, the total was
65,293 bushels, though in July, 1915
the total was 882, S74 bushels. Last
month 33,768 barrels of flour were
floated as compared with 46,301 barrels
a year ago.
Puget Sound shipped 600.560 bushels
for the month ended yesterday, and a
' year ago floated 380,608 bushels. The
showing for July is the best the North
ern port has done in any similar period
in years. In the way of flour 71,058
barrels were floated and a year ago
106,197 barrels had been dispatched.
DREDGES GET LADD'S PUMPS
Coos Buys Last Set Taken - From
Former Government Digger.
Almost 10 years after they were re
moved and since remained idle, two 18-
inch pumps and engines to operate
them have found their way from the
Government moorings into the posses
sion of. bustling interests on the Ore
gon Coast, one set having gone to the
Port of Nehalem and will be installed
in a new dredge being turned out there,
while yesterday the Port of Coos Bay
concluded negotiations for the other
set and it will be loaded on the steamer
Breakwater for delivery at Marshfield,
where it also will go into a digger.
The gear was removed from the for
mer Government dredge W. S. Ladd,
which was retired when the present
dredge Clatsop was completed at New
port News in 1908. The Columbia Con
tract Company bought the Ladd and
her machinery, except the pumping
gear.
MAMMOTH RAFT MAY FLOAT
Six Vessels Will Tug at Grounded
Giant Tonight Off Westport.
Five sternwheel towboats, all flying
the flag of the Shaver Transportation
Company, and the tug Wallula, of -the
Port of Portland fleet, will be as
sembled at midnight about a big cigar
shaped lograft off the entrance to
Westport, in an attempt to float the
raft, which grounded there two weeks
ago.
The raft was caught by the current
on being towed from Westport and
swung around so that she grounded in
shoal water. Since the freshet has
receded, consequently les3 current run
ning, it has been decided to make an
effort to get the mass into deep water.
The raft is bound for San Diego and
will be the third started there this
season. The second raft was reported
yesterday as having reached San Diego.

NEW BOND ISSUE UP
$300,000,000 in Treasury
Certificates Offered.
FIRST STEPS ARE TAKEN
Paper Will Be Redeemable on No
vember 15, Indicating Comple
tion of Next Big Loan
by That Time.
WASHINGTON, July 31. The first
step toward financing the second in
stalment of the liberty loan was taken
by the Treasury today with the offer
ing: of $300,000,000 in Treasury certifi
cates of indebtedness. It is the largest
block of such securities yet offered and
the interest rate, 3 per cent, is one
fourth of 1 per cent higher than the
previous offerings.
Subscriptions are to close on August
7 and the certificates are payable on
November 15 next, indicating that the
second instalment of the liberty loan
will have been floated in the first half
of November. Although the Treasury
has remained silent on that subject, the
general impression here is that the loan
will be offered in September and that
it will be for a total of $3,000,000,000.
When the first liberty bonds were of
fered $868,000,000 in certificates were
outstanding, and when the fiscal year
closed on June 30, a total of $626,000,
000 of this amount had been redeemed
through the method of accepting the
certificates at par value in exchange
for bonds. This method has been pre
ferred by Treasury officials because it
puts a large part of the cash involved
in bond payments actually Into the
Treasury long beforehand and mini
mizes the strain on the money market
at the time of final settlement.
Payments for the certificates will be
made on August 9, two days after the
subscriptions close. The offerings will
be made through the reserve banks and
in denominations of from $1000 to
$100,000.
