THE MORXING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, W2'
DIKE 111 COLUMBIA
TO BE REM W
Harrington Point Project Has
Important Function.
LESS DREDGING NEEDED
Miller Sands Fenced Oil; Diver
sion of Channel Expected
. to Stop Erosion.
The half-mile-long dike which the
United States enginers have been
building at Harrington point In the
Columbia river will be completed to
morrow, it was stated yesterday in
the local office of the engineers. This
dike is one of the largest and most
Important works ever undertaken in
the Columbia river.
Immediately upon the completion
of this work, the engineer forces will
be transferred to Henrici, one of the
bars betwen Portland and St. Helens,
and will install permanent improve
ment works there. Meanwhile, the
government dredge Multnomah is re
ported to be making excellent prog
ress in straightening and shortening
the channel by a cut-off from Reed
er's point to Knapp point through
Willow bar.
Lesa Dredging Expected.
These improvements by the engin
eering forces of the federal govern
ment, combined with the improve
ments in the Columbia river channel
which are being made by the port of
Portland, will together constitute the
greatest group of permanent im
provements in the channel ever ac
complished in a single year. A con
siderable lessening of the dredging
required to keep the channel at its
projected width and depth is expected
as the result of this year's work
alone.
The dike at Harrington point the
one which will be finished tomorrow
is unique in that it is designed to
stop the rolling of sand into the
channel, instead of trying to confine
the current and make it scour its
own channel, as is done by the jetties
at the mouth of the Columbia river
and by the spur dikes constructed at
various points along the course of
the river between Portland and the
sea.
Dike Fences Off Sand Body.
A large, sandy shoal in the Colum
bia river, known as Miller sands, has
its lower end at Harrington point,
and it is this body of sand which has
been fenced off by the new dike.
The cut-off at Willow bar is
largely an experiment with the en
gineers. The river has shown a slight
tendency to cut its own channel
through this bar, and thus shorten
its course, and the engineers are en
couraging this tendency in the belief
that possibly the shorter channel, (
When once created, will be self-sustaining.
Such a diversion of the
channel is also expected to stop a
damaging erosion along the bank of
the river.
A complete survey of the channel
conditions in the Columbia river,
which has been in progress since last
fall, is expected to be completed by
the United States enginers by the
end of this month. This will be the
first such survey to be made in two
years. Though an accurate check of
conditions at the bad spots in the
river channel is kept constantly bj
the engineers, and these shoals sur
veyed after each dredging, 'the ur
gency of other work does not permit
a complete survey of good and bad
places alike oftener than at two-year
intervals.
LUCKENBACH CRATT HERE
IIavy Weather Encountered by
One on Way From Gulf.

Prices Remain Strong With
No Further Advance.
TARIFF STILL DISCUSSED
J 3X111 Bayers Are Cautious and Gnlj
Few Scattering Lots of Ter
ritory Are Moving.
BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 18. (Special.)
Wool trading la qaiet. Mill buyers are
cautious. Goods market reports are con
flicting. Prices remain strong without
further material advance except that some
wools, which have not been sold for some
time, have changed hands this week at
figures in harmony with the recent mar
ket rise.
Tariff discussion continues at fever heat
but gets nowhere. Only a few scattering
lots of territory wool are moving. Wool
lofts generally are quite bare.
Current quotations for territory wools
on the clean basis are (1 to 41.10 for
fine and medium staple, 90 cents to $1
for half-blood staple, 75 to 80 cents for
three-eighths blood staple, 60 to 65 cents
for quarter-blood staple, 90 to 15 cents
for good French combing and 85 to ttO
cents for fine and fine medium clothing.
Best Ohio Wool Strong.
Best Ohio fleece wools show unabated
strength. Some holders are asking 52
cents for choice fine unwashed delaine.
Others refuse t sell at less than 50 cents.
Yet sales have been made at 48 to 49
cents.
Other fleece prices are equally strong
and sales of certain grades have been
made at full quotations. Ohio three
eighths blood combing has sold at 3D to
40 cents. Other grades are quoted at 43
to 45 cents for half-blood combing. 38
to 40 cents for quarter-blood combing and
fine unwashed clothing. Dealers are
searching fleece wool districts for more
supplies. Pulled wools are In demand at
top prices. AA wools have sold as high
as $1.10 clean, in cases where the staple !
was long enough for delaine purposes, j
Woolen mills show some interest in scoured !
and carbonized South Americans. Concor
dia 58s to 60s, unskirted, estimated to
shrink 43 per cent, are offered at 63
cents clean, and Concordia 56s, unskirted,
have sold at 47 cents.
Montevideo Wools Offered.
Montevideo wools are offered In bond
at 29 cents for Is, 26 cents for 2s, and 21
cents for 3a Buenos Aires 5s are offered.
26 cents to 27 cents for free super weol.
It is said that there are no Buenos Aires
5s in bond but 4s probably could be
bought for 15 to 16 cents. Australian mar
kets are a little easier owing to cessation
of Japanese demand. Preparations are mak
ing for the sale of all the remaining gov
ernment war wools on March 2.
It is reported here that contracting In
the west is suspended although a few
bias are made in Montana.

Knglisb Bank Rate Reduced.
LONDON. Feb. 16. (By the Associated
Press.) The Bank of Kngland today re
duced its rate of discount to 4 H per cent.
The reduction was primarily made pos
sible by the recent large reduction in
the government's floating ctebt and cur
rency clrcuialtion, which contributed to
the excess of funds in the money market,
permitting the placing of treasury bills
at a lower rate and the suspension ot
the 5 per cent bond Issue.
For a long time the bank's minimum
rate has been out of proportion to the
market rates. Thfe advance in New York
exchange, assisted by larger investment
of American funds here, removed one of
the adverse conditions in the financial
situation.
Discount rates have been remarkably
weak during the last few days and only
a slight adjustment will be necessary to
meet the revised minimum rate.
The discount rate of the Bank of Eng
land has been five per cent since Novem
ber 3, last, when it was reduced from the
5H Per cent rate established on the pre
ceding July 21. The highest rate was
reached in August, 1914, after the outbreak
of the world war, when it was set at 10
per cent, which had only been equaled
on two previous occasions, those of the
panics of 1857 and 1866. Since then the
rate has fluctuated, but the figure set yes
terday is the lowest since the outbreak
of the war.

CHICAGO PRICES BREAK AFT
ER FIRM OPENING.
Weak Holders Attempt to Unload
as Market Declines; . Liver
pool Quotations Higher,
CHICAGO, Feb. 16. Buyers backed away
from wheat today, prices having risen to
a new top record for the season. The
market closed unsettled, a to lc net
lower, with May $1.3V4 to $1.39 and
July $1.22 to $1.22. Corn finished un
changed to c higher, oats unchanged to
a down and provisions at gains vary
ing from 15 cents to $1.3"
General selling characterized the wheat
market during the last half of the day,
whereas earlier the majority of traders
were on the buying side. A substantial
advance in Liverpool quotations formed
the chief incentive for the upward swing
with which the market here commenced
ar.d which kept up with unimpaired mo
mentum until May had equaled the high
est previous figures -on thfc crop and July
had surmounted the season's record. Un
favorable weather and crop reports from
the southwestern part of the domestic win
ter wheat region acted as a bullish in
fluence. It became clear at this stage,
however, that sentiment had undergone a
decided change regarding wheat, for at
least the time being. Throughout the re
mainder of the day the course of prices
was down grade as a rule, with numerous
weak holders attempting to unload and
with commisison houses pressing to sell.
Strength in the corn market was ascribed
mainly to reports that the domestic dis
appearance of corn has been at a rate
much beyond what the trade In general
supposed. Both corn and oats touched new
high price records for the season, but
later were governed largely by the changes
In wheat
Provisions, like grain, exceeded all re
cent high levels. Advances in the value
of hogs were partly responsible and so,
too, was the monthly statement showing
diminished stocks.
The Chicago grain letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck & Cooke company
of Chicago follows:
Wheat The early advance to the pre
vious high point of the season for May
wheat attracted a tremendous volume of
selling which the market was unable to
digest, except at sharp price concessions.
It was quite apparent that the turn was
purely sentimental, as there was nothing
in the. way of news to create bearlshness.
Liverpool was higher with cables report
ing the resumption of a good milling de
mand for Argentine wheats on passage.
Export news was somewhat mixed. The
weather map disclosed unfavorable weather
conditions and the forecast is for continued
fair skies with higher temperatures. Un
less moisture is received over the dry area
of the southwest before warmer weather
sets in, crop reports are certain to be of a
very alarming nature. We are decidedly
bullish on the wheat position, although the
erratic action of the market today sug
gests that for the time being it will be
the part of wisdom to confine purchases to
setbacks.
Corn Advanced to new high for the
season, but declined with wheat to a frac
tional discount under last night's close.
During the last hour the market displayed
independent Btrength and at the close a
firm tone obtained. A decreased move-
th, Intorlni. with thf ,Tiwrf
! demand good should be accompanied by
advancing prices.
- OatsTrade was large with a great deal
of selling by longs. Elevator Interests
were credited with being the best buyers.
Prospective conditions are bullish and
should be recognized in the market be
fore long.
