21 THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 26, 1922 vWHEAT FDR ORIENT 1 I 1 TO BE AT S5 RATE New Minimum Basis for October Announced. INCREASE IS TO BE $1 Formal Reorganization of Trans Pacific Conference Expected With Still Higher Scale. Wheat and flour bookings for Oc tober sailings of shipping board ves sels operated by the Columbia-Pacific Shipping company to the orient will be on a minimum basis of $5 a ton, an advance of $1 a ton over rul ing freights. It is probable that be fore August is well along there will be a formal reorganization of the trans-Pacific conference with at attendant higher rates on other commodities. Because of ability of exporters to book 60 to 90 days ahead out of Puget sound and Pan Francisco for the far east, the, Chamber of Com merce has urged that a 30-day re striction applying out of Portland be altered to afford the same priv ilege. A message received yester day from F. W. Relyea, coast direc tor of the division of operation, was to the effect bookings could be made to include October sailings, but the increased freight makes it possible to book under the $4 rate only on th last September ship. Strengthening la Reported. There is said to be a general strengthening evident in the orien tal market and it is not questioned but that under the higher rate space will be contracted for readily. On 'Puget sound it is said they have caught up with bookings and the outlook is for a stabilizing of rates all around. Just what is to be done regarding lumber has not been made known, but the matter is be fore the shipping board. Until the forepart of this "year cereal freights to the orient were between $6 and $7 and in the spring rate cutting was precipitated that is responsible for the present $4 freight. Lumber had been carried as high as $16 a thousand feet and it is said conditions that have ex isted of late have witnessed lumber contracted for as low as 8. Steam ship operators contend J4 a ton on cereal cargo across the Pacific hardly permits a ship to "break even," while $5 affords some mar gin and should a "water tight" con ference be formed, it is believed freights will soon go back to the status of a year ago. Service Is Maintained. As to carriers other than those under the flag of the Columbia-Pa cific, the Java-Pacific line is main talning an oriental service outbound and returning from Batavia via San Francisco. The Furness Prince line will not have additional oriental steamers for the present. The steamer Mongolian Prince is due the night of July 30 from the orient to load' for the United Kingdom and continent and is to be followed early next month by the Siberian Prince. The shipping board has not an nounced names of three additional steamers allocated to the Columbia Pacific Shipping company, though the first is to be dispatched about August 15, and it is said her space is virtually taken up. The Pawley and Montague, lying at the St. Johns moorings, are reported as signed to Struthers & Dixon of San Francisco and will go south. WhUe it had been planned to ask for larger steamers in their stead, so that those on the South China run would be of a size, it is said that with the S800-ton steamers needs of lumber men could be more readily met be cause of the deckloads that could be carried, they being well-deck ships, while the 9'600-ton and 11.6010 ton ships are of the shelter-deck type. LOWER RIVER RUN CHANGED Propeller Georgiana Abandons Saturday Afternoon Trips. Establishment of the Portland-The Dalles service by the Harking Trans portation company, with the s-tern- wneeier M.aaenne, has necessitated a change on the Portland-Astoria route, Dy wnicn the propeller Geor giana will not continue Saturday afternoon trips on the lower river, but will leave every morning at 8:30 o'clock, aa was followed before the week end special trip was arrant-Ad The assignment of the Madeline to me middle river alsoSeliminate the Sunday night steamer from Astoria,' jhib 'Jia-vms lateen care 01 that serv ice.

(Spe cial.) The first raft of logs ever to be brought into Grays harbor from the ocean, except a few small rafts of live spruce during the war, was towed in today by 'the tug Cudahy I from the Quillayute river. The raft was made under the supervision of Gilbert E. ravis, inventor of the raft, which type bears his name, and has been used in towing logs from the Pacific' coast to Japan. The raft was assembled by the Quillayute Boom & Driving company, of which J. S. Waughn is the head. It con tained 250 logs, the raft being 130 feet long and 60 feet wide. t NEW SPRINKLER DEBATED Astoria Expects to Install Fire Safeguard on Pier. ASTORIA, Or., July 25: (Special.) That a complete sprinkler system will be installed at pier 3 of the port terminals was practically decided at the meeting of the port commis sion when Manager Bartlett was authorized to call for bids on the improvement. The matter was brought up after a discussion of the rates of insurance, figures sub mitted by Mr. Bartlett showing that the present rate un the warehouse at pier 3 is $1.12 on 100 annually, while the rate on the contents oi the structure is $1.36. Advices received from the insur ance underwriters said that with a sprinkler system installed the rate on the building will be reduced to 20 cents, a cut of 92 cents, and the rate on the contents will be 34 cents, reduction of $1.02. The estimated cost of a sprinkler system is $30,000. The commission carries $500,000 in surance on the warehouse on pier 6 and the commissioners estimated the reduction in the rate would effect a saving- of $4600 a year in premiums. or sufficient to pay for the in stallation of the sprinkler system in less than seven years. In the meantime the commissioners said the saving in insurance on freight stored in the warehouse would be enormous. ' Bids on the installation will be called for on the basis of cash and also on yearly payments of the amount saved in insurance rates. DOCKS SCENE OF ACTIVITY Traffic at Astoria Is Assuming ' Large Proportions. ASTORIA, Or., July 25. (Special.)

About 7,000,000 Pounds-Routed by Water, While Remainder Will Go Overland. h- Intercoastal operators are of the opinion that by 'August 15 little wool will remain here that is in tended to be shipped east by wa ter. To date it is estimated close to 7,000,000 pounds have been routed from Portland and had it not been for low rates put in effect by transcontinental rail lines be fore the intercoastal rate war was started the water lines would have carried much, if not alL of 25,000,000 pounds said to represent that part of the clip tnat wouia move via Portland. The steamer Brush of the Nawsco fleet, which was scheduled to be on her way to sea about daylight this morning, has wool in her out ward cargo, and the Walter A. Luckenbach, due to get away to night, will have shipments of the clip, while a third lot is ready for the Ohioan of the American-Hawaiian flag, which will work cargo at terminal No. 1 today. Steamship men who have man aged to get a lion's share of the wool shipments for several years point out that the rate war came just too late to offset the new rail charge, since the clip was lined up by the transcontinental lines on the strength of their reduced tariff and combinations that could be made from interior points east. At present the Intercoastal fleets are pitted against each - other in negotiations ror certain aesiraoie freight contracts, and feeling that the remainder of the wool for this season is good as routed, they are more concerned with other com modities that can be booked on their steamers to swell the volume. In another week or two, it is held, the delivery of cargo from the east, as well as the loading of certain new business at this end of the route, will indicate- what lines have bene fited by the slashing of rates via the canal. STEAM SCHOONERS ARE BUSY Thomas L. Wand and Siskiyou Xeave for San Pedro. Steam schooners figured actively in movements yesterday, the Thos. L Wand leaving the Clark & Wilson mill and the Siskiyou getting away from Westport, both lor San Pedro, while the Johan Poulsen arrived from the South and was ordered to Westport, the steamers Halco and Flavel, inbound as well, being or dered to the Hammond mill, Astoria, for cargoes. The steamer Ryder Han ify is on the way north, having left Ban Pedro Monday, and the Multno mah, loading at St Helens, is sched uled to leave for the south this aft ernoon. Despite reports that some of the coast fleet will be ordered out of service at San Francisco, it was said there is about the regular number of carriers trading out of the river. The demand for lumber in the south is said to be keeping up, and as river mills have abundant stocks of logs for the present, there is every rea son to expect the plants to keep jjaue wiiu me rnu.rser..
