Bulgarians Apprehensive Re

Central Powers.
INDEPENDENCE IS DESIRED
"While Emperor and: Kins Frater
nize, Agents of Bulbars Are En
deavoring to Confer With.
Entente Allies.
COPENHAGEN, Oct. 19. While Em
peror William and Xing' Ferdinand of
Bulgaria have been exchanging- assur
ances at Sofia of the unshakable loyalty
of Bulgaria and Germany to each other
and of the permanent nature of the
alliance of the two countries, Bulgarian
agents abroad have been endeavoring
to get into touch with the entente
powers on the subject of peace and
subsequent relations.
Their efforts are declared to be in
spired by apprehension that Germany
and Austria-Hungary, particularly the
latter, may not be over-zealous in de
fending Bulgaria's interests at the
peace conference, as well as by a de-
ire on Bulgaria's part to escape from
revolving in an exclusively German
orbit after the war.
The Associated Press correspondent
is able to report that a. Bulgarian rep- j
resentative recently sought and ob
tained an opportunity in a neutral
European capital to lay before the en
tente governments the special desires
of his country with regard to a peace
settlement, and in a one-sided conver
sation explained Bulgarian aspirations
to regain an independent political
Ftatus as soon as the war was con
cluded and resume cordial relations
with the entente powers.
Bulgaro ot Satisfied.
As the case was presented, in short,
the Central Europe idea of an economic
league in which Bulgaria would play
a comparatively minor role does not
appeal to the Bulgarian mind.
Attempts are also beins made to get
before the public in America and in
the entente countries a defense of Bul
garian pretensions to Macedonia and
the Uobrudja, the suggestion even be
ing openly made from the Bulgarian
side that Serbia should be compensated
with Austrian territory from Bosnia
and Herzogovina, a suggestion which is
pointed to as illustrative of the attitude
of many Bulgarians toward their own
allies.
German Troops Favored.
The correspondent has of late heard
of considerable ill feeling between the
Bulgarians and their allies. Complaints
are made that Bulgarian divisions were
compelled to march long distances on
foot while favored German troops rolled
past them in trains, this favoritism ex
citing particular bitterness on the part
of a select Bulgarian division from the
capital.
The German attempt to maintain con
trol of Bulgaria's single coal field has
excited much unfriendly comment also
in Bulgaria, and Field Marshal von
Mackensen is charged with favoring
the Rumanians at Bulgarian expense.
Furthermore, the press controversy
in certain German and Austrian papers,
in which the Serbian claims to parts
of Macedonia wore defended, apparent
ly has left an indelible impression of
distrust on Bulgarian public opinion.
an impression which interchange of
cordial telegrams between the states
seems to have been unable to efface.
It remains to be seen whether Emperor
"William's trip, declared to have been
undertaken with this purpose in view
will prove any more successful.
BONDS ARE PROPOSED

Liberty loan bonds of the second
Issue. J60.000 of them, will be purchased
by the Commission of Public roiks,
with sinking funds on band. It has
been ruled by City Attorney La Roche
that while the Commission may not use
funds on hand for construction pur
poses, which were derived from the
sale of bonds, the sinking funds may
be diverted to the aid of the country.
The Port of Portland Commission has
some funds of the same character. X.
C. O'Reilly, treasurer of the Comm is
sion, is absent from the city and it
may be arranged immediately on his
return to allot certain money for the
big" wartime fund.
Steel to be required for the muni
cipal grain elevator at St. Johns, 2100
tons of it, is to be ordered at once,
plans and specifications for the ma
terial having been approved by the
Ioek Commission yesterday.
A discussion took place among the
members as to whether it was feasible
to propose the enactment of legisla
tion through which waterfront property
abutting on an improved channel could
bo assessed for a share of the im
provement. It was thought such a
system might be followed as the dis
trict assessment plan ashore, through
which street nnd sewer construction
Is cared for. Mr. La Roche was asked
to look up legal points along- those
lines and report to the Commission.

By means of a dipper dredge a trench
Is beinji dufr across the river at St.

the Pacific Telephone & Teleitraph
Company is laying a submarine cable.
Permission to carry on the work was
prranted by the Commission of Public

ordered drawn, in which the company
obliges itself to lay the cable 40 feet

Material taken from the trench is

35,000 SOLDIERS AT DRILL
Total of J 33 Men Discharged
at
Camp Lewis Thursday.
TACOMA. Wash.. Oct. 19. (Special.)
-Approximately 35,000 men were at
drill on the parade grounds at Camp
Lewis today, forming all the evolu
tions from battalion review to squad
drill.
Discharges yesterday at the camp to-
tailed 133 because of physical unfitness.
Discharges are being made as fast as
the officers c. .1 prepare the blanks.
The average rejections for physical de
fects is about 9.6 per cent- Some of
the men, who do not appear to be hold
ing up well under the strain of mili
tary drill, will be examined again. Re
jection of one-half of 1 per cent of
those already accepted probably will
be the result. The physical standard
of the new Army will be kept at a high
point.
POTATO SLUMP PREDICTED
Patrick Cudahy Says Farmers Will
Take Half Present Prices.
MILWAUKEE. Wis.. Oct. 19. "I

ahy, head of a packing concern, today
in discussing the statement of Food
Administrator Hoover that the farm
ers are holding back their crops.
"I think Mr. Hoover's statement is
sound." said Mr. Cudahy. "The farm
ers are getting altogether too much
the best of things. They ought to be
regulated, the same as business men.
They are holding back wheat and pota
toes for higher prices. People coming
from the country tell me the farmers
are holding potatoes in their cellars.
"They are getting from 1 to $1.25 for
potatoes now. Next Spring they will
be getting 50 cents."

T KEEL LAID
AT fJEW SHIP YARD
Second Ways Planked, Exca
vation for Others Started,
Power Saws Set.
B0NEYARD SCENE CHANGED
Foundation Company's riant Illum
inated at Night by Powerful
Searchlight Derricks Ilavo
120-Foot Booms.
Keel No. 1, measuring- 250 feet in
length, is in place at the plant of the
Foundation Company, the second ways
are planked and ready for keel blocks,
excavating is in full swing for the
others and. with part of the battery of
power saws set on their concrete
foundations, the biggest wooden ship
building yard in this district is really
constructing ships.
Considering that the representatives
of the. Foundation Company came to
Portland July 23, the. headway gained
up to date is rated most commendable.
Work has been carried on during the
last month principally with the aid of
house carpenters, as the strike of
wooden workers had an effect there
in the way of eliminating experienced
men as it did at other plants.
Today the former "boneyard" of the
O.-W. R. & N., a property that held
the name and purpose for many years,
bears no resemblance to its original
aspect Gotje are the remnants of old
hulls, weather worn sheds and the long
strip along North Front street, that
bore principally weeds and long grass.
In its place are spick and span build
ings. The green growth has given way
to an evenly planked assembling yard.
Old structures have been added to and
converted into storehouses and the
like, while the main structures the
saw shed, mold loft, administration
building, compressor house and others
are new. The temporary hospital is
as white as a dairy lunch inside, while
outside a coat of green, trimmed with
white, lends a colorful tone to the
vicinity.
Green and White Color Scheme,
Green and white, by the way, are
the official colors of the Foundation
Company and it is not unlikely all
buildings will be decorated with cold
water paint, though the big corpora
tion is bent on completing 20 ships for
the French government without loss of
time, rather than undertaking to
beautify that particular section of the
waterfront.
The thoroughness with which the es
tablishment of the plant has been car
ried on is said to have been duplicated
at Tacoma. where the same sized yard
is being finished and that has attained
the same stage of completion as the
Portland property.
Bayly Hipkins, manager for the com
pany here, is proud of lofty derricks
rigged here. Their booms measure 120
feet and he says he has not seen as
long anywhere in the Vnited States.
An innovation is the installation of elec
tric searchlights on buildings at dif
ferent points in the yard, so after dark
the entire space is illuminated and
watchmen have an easy time in scan
ning every section in their frequent
rounds.
Auxiliary Srhoonen to Be Built.
The ships to be assembled here will
be of the auxiliary schooner rig built
by nearly all Pacific Coast yards be
fore war business was accepted, ex
cept that instead of heavy oil engines
they will be fitted wltn twin triple
coninound steam engines.
Charles F. Swigert, head of the pa
cific Bridge Company and the Electric
Foundry Company, who has represented
the Foundation Company in getting
things shipshape, feels that good head
way has been gained in spite of the
strike. Theodore Knudson, formerly
stmerlntendent of the yard of the
Peninsula Shipbuilding Company, is in
cha rpfi of hull construction at the
Foundation plant.
CALIFORNIA VESSELS LATE

in the month and left for the East,
the membership now consists of six,

have wished that the Government would
return $475,000 that the Fort advanced
a few years ago that construction
could be continued on the north jetty
at the entrance to the Columbia, which
was doubtful at the time, owing to
the passage of the rivers and harbors
bill having been delayed.
