STOPS SALE
President to Decide as to Dis
posal of Transports.
ARMY WANTS RESERVE
War Department Proposes to Keep
Bout- as Troop Ships in Case
of Another Emergency.
WASHINGTON', Jan. 28. Action on
bids for 30 of the former German lin
ers seized in the United States was
deferred today by the shipoing board
as a result of a protest from Secre
tary Baker against the sale of such
of these vessels as have been includ
ed by the -war department in its army
transport reserve.
Mr. Baker not only has protested
to Chairman Payne with the request
that the matter be presented to Pres
ident Wilson, but has taken the ques
ion up with the senate commerce com
mittee, which now is undertaking to
formulate a permanent policy to gov
ern the American merchant marine.
Chairman Payne, on receiving Mr.
Baker's protest, promised that no ac
tion would be taken until he could
confer with the war department of
ficials. It is understood that the question
of the disposition of the vessels al
ready has been placed before Pres
ident Wilson for final decision.
In his letter to Chairman Payne, the
war secretary disclosed that the ship
ping board, the navy department, the
war department and the department
of commerce had agreed, with the
approval of President Wilson, upon a
policy in connection with the former
German ships which contemplated the
building up of an army transport re
serve. He said vessels released to
the shipping board for the service in
(Heated in the agreement were re
leased "with the understanding that
they are subject to immediate with
drawal in case of emergency for use
as transports."
Twelve ships were specifically
named in the agreement, six being
allocated for the South American serv
ice and six for the trans-Pacific
service.
Among the former German vessels
; for which preference in release for
the interdepartmental agreement are
the President Grant, the Mercury, the
Powhatan, the Susquehanna, the Mad
awaska and the Artemis.
It was proposed to the interdepart
mental conference that the foregoing
named ships should be used by the
shipping board for the trans-Pacific
service and the war department re
leased the vessels to the board with
the understanding that they would
be used in that traffic.
IS TO START
STEPS ARE TAKEX FOR EREC
TION OF BUNKERS.
Port Commission Completes Ar
rangements for Project to Aid
in Ship Loading.
Arrangements have been made be
tween the commission of public docks
and the port of Portland commission
for the immediate start of the work
of dredging for the proposed pier 5
of the St. Johns terminal for the erec
tion of bunkers, it was reported at
Tuesday's meeting of the dock com
mission by G. B. Hegardt, secretary
and chief engineer.
The bunkers, the erection of which
is contemplated, will be for use in
loading ships with coal or other sim
ilar material handled in bulk.
Counting on a stronger tone in the
bond market next month, the com
mission Tuesday voted to readver-
tise for bids on an issue of $750,000 of
harbor development bonds dated Feb
ruary 2. Bids will be opened February
20. All bids received for this issue
at a recent meeting were rejected be-
cause they were too low. The funds
derived from the sale of these bonds
"will be used to finance construction
work already under way in the
harbor. "
Ji ' The oronosition of an extension of
the St. Johns streetcar line to the St.
Johns terminal was brought up for
discussion, but because of the hear
ing before the public service commis
sion scheduled for February 2, it was
decided to defer action until after this
"hearing. It has been agreed that if
.-the P. R., L. & P. company cannot be
induced to construct this extension
the city, through the commission of
public docks, will build the exten
sion. Whether the extension will be
operated by the city or the street
railway company has not yet been
decided.
SHIP HAS NEW RUDDER
Appliance Designed to Be Stronger
and More Efficient.
; ' The wooden steamer Marshfield,
which docked at the Fifteenth-street
terminal at 2 o'clock yesterday morn
ing from San Francisco, is a depart
ure from the usual Hough-type ves
sels, in that she has had a new type
of rudder fitted, which is designed to
be more efficient and stronger than
those placed on the other Hough ships.
Alterations also have been made in
the deck house.
The Marshfield was the third hull
launched by the Coos Bay Shipbuild
ing company and has been employed
by the Matson Navigation company
for the past year in the island sugar
trade. She is here under the manage
ment of the Pacific Steamship com
pany to load ties for the United
Kingdom.

Master of Steamer Endicott to An
surer Indictment for Conduct
While Sailing AVest Munliam.
SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 2S. Captain
John Alwen, master of the United
States shipping board steamer Endi
cott, will take his vessel to the orient
and return before appearing at Port
land to answer to an indictment
charging him with withholding suit
able food from sailors returning from
the orient on his ship last summer.
At a hearing before United States
Commissioner Robert W. .McClelland
late today. Captain Alwen was placed
under $1000 bond that he might
complete his voyage.
The Endicott is expected to clear
from Seattle Friday.
Captain John Alwen was master
of the steamer West Munham. one
of the freighters in the Portland
oriental service of- the Pacific Steam
ship company. When this vessel re
turned from her first trip to the far
east last September, she touched first
at Seattle to discharge part of her
cargo. Several members of the crew
left the vessel there and refused to
continue on her to Portland. An un
successful attempt was made by mem
bers of the crew to libel the vessel
at Seattle.
After the West Munham reached
Portland an investigation was started
by the federal grand jury because of
the death of several members of the
crew in the orient because of al
leged bad conditions on the vessels.

New Factory Will-Be Built at
Oakland, Cal.
SHIPPING LOSS RESULTS
Copra-Lad en Schooners From
South Seas to Be Diverted Here
after to San. Francisco Bay.
The Portland plant of the Palmollve
company, recently destroyed by fire,
is to be rebuilt at Oakland, Cal., and
Portland is to lose the industry and
ail its attendant commerce, according
to the only interpretation that can be
placed on telegraphic orders received
by C. A. Painton. manager of the
local plant, from the headquarters of
the company in Milwaukee, Wis.
The decision to move the Pacific
coast factory of the company to Oak
land has been made by the board of
directors of the Palmolive company,
according to Mr. Painton. and it is
improbable that efforts of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce to secure
a change of heart on the part of the
head office will bear any fruit.
"E. S. Pierce, vice-president of the
Palmolive company, made a trip to
this coast recently." said Mr. Painton
yesterday, and inspected factory sites
offered here, on Puget sound and on
ban i rancisco bay. o objection was
made to the Portland site. The deel
sion of the board of directors, based
on Mr. Pierce's report, is due to the
greater shipping facilities offered on
the bay, and the fact that that region
Is more centrally located on the
coast.
"The business of the company has
grown so lately that ship connections
by regular service with the Atlantic
coast, Australia and the South Pacific
are essential, as well as with the
orient. San Francisco has the coast
to-coast line which Portland has not.
as well as more frequent and regular
service to the rest of the world.'
The new plant to be erected at
Oakland. Mr. Painton said, will cost
about $350,000 for the building and
$150,000 more for the machinery. It
will have a capacity of 100 tons per
day, a little more than twice the
capacity of the plant burned at Port
land. The loss of the Palmolive plant will
be a serious blow to lumber exporters
here, as the sailing vessels bringing
copra to Portland have always taken
lumber to Australia as return car
goes. Through several years the
copra trade has brought an average
of two vessels a month to Portland. '
The copra cargo of the schooner
Charles F, Crocker, now somewhere
n the Pacific destined for Portland.
has already been resold, according to
Mr. Painton, and will be trans-shipped
soon as it arrives here, and sent
east by rail. From present indica-
ons, the Charles F. Crocker will be
the last copra ship to come to Port-
and.

TRADE IX FEED GRAINS SLACK
Idaho Farmers Reported to Be Res red
ing Wheat.
Little interest was shown In feed grains
yesterday. At the Merchants' Exchange
corn bids were reduced 2575 cents and
oats ranged from 50 cents lower to 51
cents higher than Tuesday. There were
no offers for barley at the session. At
San Francisco barley was steady with
May selling at 3.55. The Chicago barley
market was H 1 cent lower.
Idaho reports say many farmers have
been obliged to plow up their winter
wheat and plant the spring variety iu
place. Owing to shortage of seed wheat
It may be necessary to buy back some
sold for future delivery.
Terminal receipts, in cars, were re
ported by the Merchants' Exchange as

ACSTRAIJAN CROP SITUATION GOOD
Wheat Prospects in Europe Are Generally
Favorable.
Reporting crop prospects abroad. Broom-
hall cables:
Australia The general agricultural
situation has been vastly improved by the
ratner general rains which have fallen
over a wide area and benefited the new
wheat crop.
Germany Weather has been favorable
being generally mild. Weather some time
back was frosty In sections and further
sowings of wheat retarded.
Italy Agricultural prospects are falrlv
good, although in certain sections the new
seedlngs of grain have been somewhat de
layed. Tne supply situation can be des
cribed as satisfactory.
Sweden A good snow cover protects the
new crop.
United Kingdow Weather of late hs-i
been wet and mild. The new crop pros
pects have been generally favorable, al
though the acreage to wheat will probabl
be slightly smaller than last year.
France Persistent rains have been ex
perienced In this country, but the ap
pearance of the new crops Is good.
