TO BE SENT
JO EUROPE BY SEA
Dutch Steamer Will Load Or
egon Meat Cargo.
SHIPMENT IS 131 TONS
Consignment Goes In Refrigeration
and Is First or Kind Sent
by All-Water Koutc.
The first direct shipment of meat
from. Portland to Europe by refrig
erated steamer will begin this morn
ing: at municipal terminal No. 4 when
the Dutch steamer Moerdyk of the
Holland-Amerika line takes aboard
131 tons of Oregon bacon. Swift &
Co., who are making the shipment,
have sent Oregon bacon to Europe
before, but always by rail to the At
lantic coast and thence across by
water to Its final destination.
Officers of the company, as well as
the representatives of the steamship
line, hope that this initial shipment
is merely the forerunner of a large
movement of Oregon meats to Europe
by direct steamer.
Shipment Take All Spare.
Coming from the big cold storage
houses of Swift & Co. at Kenton, the
bacon will be loaded into six re
frigerated cars and transferred di
rectly from the cars to the refrig
erated holds of the steamer. As this
(Shipment will fill the cooled com
partments of the big freighter, these
holds will not be opened again until
the meat reaches London and is
rushed to cold storage warehouses in
the branch plant of Swift A Co. there.
This is the first use to be made here
of the refrigerated space of the. Holland-Amerika
line steamers.
Cooling nooma Innovation.
These big boats began calling here
about a year ago, but the cool rooms
Invariably were filled with fresh
fruit at other Pacific coast ports,
and only wheat, flour and general
merchandise, requiring ordinary
(stowage, have been carried from
Portland.
Arrangements are being made to
handle a large portion of Oregon's
apple crop by direct refrigerated
steamer to the European markets this
yean If a healthy movement of
meats to Europe by the same manner
of shipment can be developed, year
round business from Portland will
result for these steamers.

SHIP'S CREW HELD SOCK
SUGGESTION TO SHOOT MEM
BERS DECLARED MADE.
First 0'ficer of Alaska Testifies
Attempt to Get Volunteers for
Rescue Unavailing.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18. Mem
bers of the crew of the wrecked
steamer Alaska were so slack; in their
efforts to rescue survivors that an of
ficer of the rescue ship Anyox sug
gested that they be shot, William E.
McClintock. the Alaska's first officer,
declared today. He was the last wit
ness at the trial before federal in
spectors of four executive officers of
the Alaska on charges of negligence
in connection with the wreck, which
was concluded late today.
A motion by attorneys representing
the accused officers that a decision be
handed down tonight was denied. The
inspectors only have the power to re
voke licenses.
When he was taken aboard the An
yox. McClintock said, he tried to get a
volunteer crew from among the more
seasoned seamen, of the Alaska to go
back for survivors and sent Boat
swain Hilmer to round them up. The
boatswain came back, according to
McClintock's testimony, and said:
Mr. Mate, I can't see why the
young fellows can t go out; they re
getting as much money as we are.
McClintock declared he made two
separate attempts to get a volunteer
crew to go from the Anyox In search
or survivors, but was stopped on both
occasions by the master ot the Anyox.
McClintock said he got Into an ar
gument with the second mate of the
Anyox when the rescue boat officer
asked him:
"Where are all the good Yanks to
night?"'
He testified that Captain Harry Ho.
bey of the Alaska was a total ab
stainer and that the officers of the
wrecked vessel were not entertaining
women In their quarters when the
boat struck.
D. E. Dupree, Oakland, second offi
cer; John R. Heikkela,. Calumet, Mich.,
third officer, and M. J. Albion, Port
land. Or., fourth officer, denied state
ments made by Boatswain Fred Hil
mer that he was active ton lowering
boats on the boat deck during the
whole period that the Alaska was
sinking. Dupree said he saw the
boatswain shortly before the ship
went down, but he did not seem par
ticularly active.
The Alaska changed her course at
8:26 P. M. on the night that she
struck Blunts reef, Dupree said, on
the captain's theory that the vessel
should cruise farther out to sea, as
the weather was thick. He said the
wireless operator could not under
stand his ocders and could not be un
derstood. as he did not have a good
command of the English language.

With the appointment of the new

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 18. (Spe

ship men on the Pacific coast. Con
firmation of the appointment was
made today by A. F. Haines. Mr.
Cropley will assume his new position

the Admiral- line, Mr. Cropley was
appointed general freight agent. He
was later elevated to the position of

was made assistant manager of the
Admiral line, which position he held

president and general manager of the
Admiral line, Mr. Cropley left here
on a tour of inspection of the south
ern offices of the company. He will

at sons, operating her. She is at pier 23,
where she will undergo inspection. Mem
bers of her crew said that at Limerick and
Cork there was shooting in the streets
every night after the curfew hour of
o'clock, but that none of their members
was involved, nor were they mistreated by
the forces of either side.
The British freighter Grellsle moved to
Port Costa today to load 6000 tons of bar
ley for Strauss & Co.
The motorship Asia, in command of
Prince Axel of Denmark, sailed from here
this afternoon for Antwerp and other Eu
ropean ports.
An investigation is now under way by
officials of the Pacific Mali Steamship
company in reference to the advisability
of returning the three remaining shipping
board freighters in the around-the-world
service to the government. The Pacific
Mail temporarily has withdrawn the
around-the-world service. Three vessels
however, still are under operation of th
Pacific Mail. The West Neris was expect
ed to arrive at New York teday from Bar
celona. Whether the vessel will continue
here or be turned back to the board on
the east coast, is one of the problems con
fronting the company. The other two, th
Eastern Importer and West Caddoa. are in
oriental watera and a similar situation
exists as to these vessels. The Pacific
Mail had eight large cargo carriers owned
by the shipping board in the around-the
world service at one time.
'The new freighter West Farallon. in th
European-Pacific service of Williams, Dl
mond & Co.. arrived here today from Port

this port will include large shipments
case goods, wheat, flour and 500 tons of
ground copra for Hamburg. The vesse
will have a capacity cargo, 11.500 tons,
when she leavea here next Sunday for her
European ports of call.
The Isthmian freighter Anniston City
Captain A. U. Littlefield, which arrive
here today from Portland and other north
ern ports to finish loading, will take here
1000 tons of canned goods. She is expect
ed to sail from here Saturday night for
Galveston. New Orleans and Baltimore.
The wrecked Pacific Mail liner San Jose
cannot be saved, is the general opinion of
the 31 members of her crew who arrive
here today on board the steamer Apu
They aald the vessel started pounding reg
utarly at 1 o clock every aiternoon, whe
the heavy swells began to come in, an
that this continued until 8 or 9 o'clock
at night. Under this punishment the ves

ain Obert. a Swedish skipper, brought
the Equitos here with a cargo of
ugar more than a month ago and
the ship has been riding at anchor in
he port ever since, awaiting first a
charter and then money to pay the
rew.
The charter was executed last week
the Canadian Trading company to
load the ship with lumber for Aus-
ralia, but the men were not paid.
nd today when an attempt was made
to berth th- ship the crew stopped
work. The men say that they want
the money to send to their families

here are terrible. The one Irishman
n the party is a high-grade chemist.
ut owing to the extreme financial
difficulties through which Peru is go

declared her independence Csfptain
Obert held a general celebration
board the ship which was attended
by H. G. White, Peruvian consul, as
the guest of honor.
The men say they have no faith in
Captain Obert, but are willing to sail
on the ship under the first mate.

STAGE RATE WAR AT END
One-Way Karcs to Be Increased to
$1.50 Tomorrow.
SALEM, Or., Aug. 18. (Special.))
After a rate war, which started near
ly a month ago, the Portland-Salem
automobile.stage line tomorrow morning-
will increase its one-way fare be- I
tween the two cities from $1.10, in
cluding war tax, to $1.50. It was an
nounced by the management of the
stage line that upon adopting the new
fare schedule, reservations would
have consideration.
During the rate war no seats were
reserved. The drastic reduction In
the rates was brought about by the
operation of a rival stage line, which
cut the original one-way fare from
$1.75 to Jl.iO.
