The principal project actually under way in the 1st district now is the annual dredging at the entrance to Coos bay and the main channel from the en trance to Smith's mill, near Marshfield. The inside project has been increased from 18 to 22 feet, and since repairs have been finished on the government dredge Oregon, which is one of the pipeline type, she has been started on the inside channel work.

BY Traffic Won Id Be Heavier but for Shortage of Tonnage Oriental Demand Reported Good. Despite handicaps imposed by lack of tonnage for handling lumber to the far east, the Pacific Export Lumber company has managed to float 8,000. 000 feet within the past four weeks, the shipments being: about evenly di vided between Portland and Puget Sound. Of approximately 4,000,000 feet shipped on vessels from the north ern port 1,000.000 feet was sent from the Portland district by railroad. The company is to load close to 1,000,000 feet aboard the Waban, which will be next in the service of the Pa cific Steamship company to get away for the Orient. Besides handling lum ber outbound, which is adding to the percentage of business originating here to help the new line, the Pacific Export Lumber company is contributing in no iall way toward return cargoes for the Portland ships. The Coaxet, which followed the Weet Munham across the Pacific. Is to bring back 1000 tons of vegetable oils and it is said that busi ness about to be closed insures as much more o.t a following steamer. The oriental market generally Is calling for lumber. At Calcutta and Bombay there is abundant opportunity to sell, but the lack of tramp tonnage for that zone prevents large lots being moved. The new steamer Doylestown, which the Albina Engine & Machine works will deliver next week, is to load for India, the Pacific Mail Steam ship company having the vessel.

Fletcher's Castoria is nothing new. We are not asking you to try an experi ment. We just want to impress upon you the importance of buying Fletcher's. Your physician will tell you this, as he knows there are a number of imitations on the market, and he is particularly interested in the welfare of your baby, IS Notice to Mariners.

Do yon know why yon are asked to call for Fletcher's Castoria when you want a child's remedy: why you must Insist on Fletcher's? For years we have been explaining how the popularity of Fletcher's Castoria has brought out innumerable imitations, sub stitutes and counterfeits. To protect the babies: to 6hleld the homes and in defense of generations to come we appeal to the better judgment of parents to insist on having Fletcher's Castoria when in need of a child's med icine. And remember above all things that a child's medicine is made for children a medicine prepared for grown-ups is not inter changeable. A baby's food for a baby. And a baby's medicine is just as essential for the baby. The Castoria Recipe (it's on every wrapper) has been prepared by the same hands in the same manner for so many years that the signal ture of Chas. H. Fletcher and perfection in the product are synonymous.

The wooden steamer Cabura. which the Coast Shipbuilding? company has completed, is to be delivered today. She is to be assigned to Sudden & Christenson to load t ies for the At lantic. The Dertona of the Supple Ballin fleet, goes on trial trip tomor row and the Dardania, the hull of which the Sommarstrom Shipbuilding company completed, is to undergo her t rial trip Saturday. The machinery of the latter vessel was installed by the i'acific Marine Iron works. It was intended that Z of the wood en vessels be delivered in July, but changes in the boatape requirements, through which two additional lifeboats were first ordered put aboard and then the regulation was changed to admit of life raits being used, also the Mooney strike, combined to reduce the pro gramme to seven deliveries. WEST RARITAN HITS WAVES Xorthwe&t Steel's Craft (Hides Out With Little Demonstration. Some who yesterday watched the hull of the steel steamer West Raritan take hr initial dip from ways No. 1. at the plant of the Northwest Steel company, recalled that the lack of cheering and eimilar display of enthusiasm was in contrast to the occasion of floating the first hull from that berth, that being the War Baron, and the date was March -0. 1917. The West Raritan was the eighth ship to leave the same cra dle, the yard having floated to date 33 hulls. It was 4:05 o'clock when the S800 ionner exhibited signs of stirring and Mrs. John C. Slattery, sponsor, was most prompt in striking the ship with the christening bottle the instant it began to move. Unlike many who have DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND. Or., Aug. .

Herrin. from San Francisco, Clifcaso Brokers, Surprised Over Government Action, Scramble to Get Back on Market. CHICAGO. Aug. 6. Scenes of wild ex citement prevailed again today at the board of trade when corn prices jumped up 10c a bushel after having suffered an equal drop yesterday. Rushes to sll yesterday were almost surpassed in the wild scramble to purchase today. All transactions here turned on the news from Washing-ton that the gov ernment, contrary to the outlook yes terday, would not adopt sacrifice selling of wheat as a means of attack in g the prevalent high cost of living. This de cision, although unexpected on the board of trade, and notwithstanding the rebound in corn prices which resulted, did not elicit much unfavorable com ment. At most the cut in flour prices which would have been the consequence of the government sacrifice of wheat was popularly estimated at $2 a barrel. The actual cut of $1 a barrel that was an nounced simultaneously with the de cision to maintain the guaranteed price on wheat appeared to be virtually ignored today as a market factor. Am Bee Sugar.

Reduction of $ 1 a Barrel in Flour. Less Than Expected, Has Bullish Effect. CH ICAGO. Aug. 6. An instantaneous up ward jump of 4 1 cents to cents a ushel was the response of the corn market oday to the announcement that the govern ment would maintain the guaranteca price of wheat. The bigsest rie of l he corn market was in the principal traaing el t very, December, which soared at once to $1.52. Willingness to nuy was as evident as me overwhelming rush to sell had been yester- Holiiers ana speculators naa aone ine selling yesterday on the expectation that he government wouia aeciae to pu-cKei m. huge loss and would at once cut wheat prices to consumers as much as 50 cents a bushel.

The many mibstan tial gains made by today's less active stock market were regarded as an outward ex pression of the more cheerful mood of fi nancial interests, no less than the better sentiment which prevailed. In speculative circle. Opinions respecting the gravity of the railroad labor situation were considerably modified as the result of a statement at tributed to one of the labor leaders that the prospects of a general strike are mote. Wall BtreM seemed hopeful that con ferences between administration officials and representatives of railway brotherhoods would be productive of definite and satis factory outcome and reflected this feeling by its consistent support of transportation snares. Great ease of money, call loans falling to 3 per cent after opening at to 6 and increased activity at the steel mills iricluded the other encouraging developments. Further demoralization In the foreign exchange market, with francs at a new low record, was almost the sole disquieting fea ture, but even that acute situation failed to exert a material influence over the stock market.
