EGERIA WILL TAKE
Steamer Is Commissioned for
Coastwise Trade.
VESSEL PORTLAND-OWNED
Carrier, Idle for X early Six Months,
Goes to St. Helens Today .
to Take on Load.
After being- Idle for nearly lx
months, the Portland-owned steamer
Egrerla. which. Incidentally. Is the only
Portland-owned ocean steamer, has
been commissioned for the coastwise
lumber trade and will go to St.
Helens this morning to start loading
for San Diegro.
Management of the Egjerla has been
transferred from the Coast Shipbuild
ing company to the McCullough-Fa-gan
Lumber company, wholesale lum
ber operators, .who will use the vessel
principally in the transportation of
their own cargoes. The real owner
ship of the craft is vested in a large
number of Portland firms and Indi
viduals. Since the return of the Egeria from
her one cruise to Australia, the enor
mous fuel oil and ballast tanks, which
were . her most distinctive feature,
have been removed to give her more
cargo space. The vessel's owners
have abandoned the idea of operating
her in the long voyages of the off
ehpre lumber trade for which she was
constructed. Bight tanks in all were
removed, leaving the vessel enough
fuel capacity to carry her to Honolulu
or Alaska and back if a profitable
cargo should offer in those trades,
but the business of carrying lumber
to Australia and South Africa will be
left to the big liners making that ter
ritory and the sailing vessels.
On her maiden voyage the Egeria
carried about 1,350,000 feet of lumber,
but as the result of her recent re
modeling, it is expected that her ca
pacity now will prove to be ebout
1,600,000 feet.
Captain C. J. Swenson. who last
sailed out of Portland as master of
the schooner W. H. Marston, operated
by the late Harry Pennell, head of the
Coast Shipbuilding company, will go
as commander of the Egeria. Captain
Swenson is well-known here and else
where on the coast, as he has com
manded a number of shipping board
steamers and several of the Green
Star line.

The Japanese steamer Victoria
Maru, recently announced as char
tered by the Houser interests to carry
wheat or flour to Europe, was due
off the mouth of the Columbia river
at 11 o'clock last night, according to
advices received here yesterday. She

evening:, after fumigating either at
Astoria or on her way up the river.
Rapid dispatch will be given the
shipping board steamer West Hona
ker, which arrlvKl at the Portland
Flouring Mills dock yesterday morn
ing. In order that the shippers
may get a July bill of lading, as spe
cified in the freighting agreement, all
the cargo must be aboard and the
vessel cleared through customs Sun
day, and a full cargo of wheat and
flour is to be loaded here. Although
the shipping board rate on grain and
flour to Europe is considerablyabove
that of foreign vessels, this vessel
was taken at the shipping board rate
in order to secure immediate loading.
The Japanese steamer Tyne Maru,
owned by Suzuki &. Co., was posted
on the Merchant's Exchange board
yesterday as en route here for grain.
It is presumed that she will carry
wheat for the account of her owners,

OCEAN GRAIN RATES FIXED
Shipping Interests of Canada Feel
Around for Fall Business.
VANCOUVER, B. C July 27. (Spe
cial.) Canadian steamship interests
and those particularly connected with
the transport of grain to Europe were
commencing to feel around for char
ter rates and part cargo chare: es on
grain for destination across the At
lantic. The rates from Montreal and other
Atlantic ports have been fixed to the
United Kingdom as follows: On all
heavy grains, August, 7 shillings, or
29 cents; September the same; October
this will be raised to 8 shillings, or
33 1-3 cents, and the November rate is
increased to 9 shillings, or 37 cents.
The barley rate Is 5 cents higher and
STEVEDORING CUTS PLANNED
Firms at Meeting Today to Decide
on Reduction of Charges.
Reductions in stevedoring charges
at Portland and on the Columbia river
will be decided upon at a meeting of
the stevedoring firms to be held here
today. It is expected that the rates
for the Columbia river district will
be made to equal those now prevailing
on Puget sound. A slight reduction
at San Francisco would then make a
uniform stevedoring charge for the
entire Pacific coast.
A cut in the wages of longshoremen
amounting to 10 cents an hour, or
about' 10 per cent, has been agreed
upon by both employers and employes
of Puget sound and the Columbia dis
trict.

the former places will be 30 cents
and to the latter 2 cents higher.
These rates then will hold until Octo
ber, when the period from October 1

35 cents to those ports.
It was not expected that any def
inite action as to setting rates on
grain shipments out of this port would

rate fixing out of Columbia river
points at a much earlier date.

Crowd "Jimmies" Door In Effort
to Find Treasure, but Flee
at Sight of Revolver.
Members of the crew of the United
States steamer West Nlvaria received
the eurprise of their lives yesterday
when they attempted to recover some
of their "wet goods, which had been
confiscated by customs officers. Jn
the routine search of the vessel, newly
arrived from the orient, officers col
lected a dozen or so bottles, which
they placed in a eack and stowed
temporarily in a room amidships, sta
tioning Clifford Glover, engineer of
the customs launch H- W. Scott, on
guard.
Sailors passed back and forth be
fore the room in which the treasure
was -stored, paying no particular heed
until someone noticed that the guard
was gone. Immediately a crowd gath
ered. Seamen, engineers and mess
men fished in their pockets, brought
forth all the keys they could find and
tried them all, without moving the
latch. Fearing the return of the of
ficers at any moment, one man in
desperation "jimmied" the door.
The groifp rushed pell-mell into the
room, stopped short and fled, for.
sitting calmly on a bunk with his
feet on the sack of bottles, was
Glover with an ugly revolver in his
hand. The crew disappeared forward
without disputing the ownership of
the liquor. No arrests were made.
