THE SUNDAY OKEGONIAN, PORTLAND, MAKCH 16, 1902. II OCEANO AND QUITO HERE TWO BIG STEAMSHIPS AimiVE FOR ORIENTAL CARGOES. Will Be Followed by Four Other Witliin a Ferr Days Ship-Riggers Return to Work on the Aaie. The British steamships Oceano and Quito, the advance guard of a fleet of half a dozen big steamers due at this port within the next -week or two, arrived In yesterday afternoon. The Oceano comes from the Orient by way of Puget Sound, and has on board a part cargo of flour which was loaded at Tacoma. She Is under charter to the Baclflc Export Lumber Company and will All out her car go here with lumber- The Quito comet from the Orient and has a part cargo o miscellaneous freight on board, and af ter discharging It will load a cargo of Government stores for Manila. Both of these steamers are owned by Andrew "Weir & Co., and are consigned to James Laidliw & Co. Another steamer of the same line, the Adato. is now in San Fran cisco and will reach Portland next week. Before any of these steamers get away from Portland, the Portland & Asiatic liner Indrapura will arrive, and the Brit ish steamship Queen Mary will reach here from Vancouver, B. C, where she Is now due from Java with a cargo of sugar. The Queen Mary Is under charter to the Pacific Export Lumber Company, and will load lumber at this port for the Orient. The sixth steamship due this month is a mysterious craft flying the German flag. She Is named the Theodor Willo and sailed from Tsingtau for Port land the latter part of February. The object of her visit has not been disclosed, but she is presumably chartered for flour or lumber. These big ocean tramps com ing in at a time when sailers are less plentiful than they have been will aid in livening up the water front in the Spring months at a time when it Is usually dull. The six vessels are all carriers and will take out upwards of 40,000 tons of freight. The Oceano and her master. Captain Shotten. are well known in this port, having carried the record lumber cargo out of the Columbia last September. The Quito is -also in command of Captain Shotten, her master being a younger brother of the Oceano's skipper. As the master of the Oceano only -confesses to about 26 Summers and Winters, the com mander of the 'Quito must be older In skill and judgment than in years. FROM 'FRISCO IX BALLAST. French Bark Ami ml Trondc Has Been Ordered to A'cvr Cnledonia. The French bounty earners are not proving such bonanzas as they were a year ago, when freights were up around 40 shillings, and the slump In freights has sent them scurrying off Into new fields, which offer a long voyage with plenty of mileage to be earned. The French bark Amlral Troude. now due at San Francisco Jn ballast, will, on arrival off the heads, be ordered to New Cnle donia. There Is not much business down in that corner of the world, but when she gets down there she can be ordered on another long Journey, her bounty be ing enough to pay her operating ex penses, so that if she secures any freight at all, her owners will be that much ahead. Freights In San Francisco have broken badly, and a ship was fixed there yesterday at 22s Gd, with another larger one offering at 21s 9d. The San Fran cisco Commercial News, which had a firm market for ships long after the Pa cific Coast exporters considered them weak, has at last changed front, and un der date of March 13 save: "When freights are good the bounty system may work well for France, but in dull times like these the greatest benefi ciary is the grain exporter, who gets freights far below the cost of carriage, while the French shipowner has that loss and more made good by the French tax payers, so the latter is paying a good part of the freight rate that under nat ural conditions would have to be borne by the exporters here. It Is not a bad thing for the Pacific Coast, but does not form a good subsidy argument. Freights are extremely dull and rates away down, as the latest engagement shows. There is only a light amount of grain remaining for export, and few more charters can be expected, save only of bounty-nursed French tonnage, unless rates improve, and there are no very cheering prospects of that at present. Lumber freights are dull at unchanged quotations. A PASSENGER'S STORY. Description of Last Hours of Port land Liner Knight Companion. The Japan Gazette just to hand contains an interview with Mr. Cooper Abba, the only European passenger on the Portland & Oriental liner Knight Companion, when she was wrecked off the Japanese coast last month. Mr. Abba is quoted as fol lows: "We sighted land at about 10 o'clock on the morning of February 2, and bowled along at a fair speed of 10 or 11 knots. In the afternoon we were running along the shore the captain says three miles out when at 4:10 we ran aground with a terrible crash. There was some natural excitement among the Chinese on board, but discipline was maintained, and after taking soundings and discov ering that we were In five fathoms all round and that the water was making fast In the hold, the captain ordered the five boats lowered. This had to be done by the officers, and of course took some time, but the ship's company were In the boats by 5:30 or 6 o'clock. Most of them saved a handbag with a few arti cles. The captain saved his chronom eters and ship's papers, and his wife managed to secure a few little things. "In the meantime the steamer was pounding and' grinding on the rocks, hav ing struck, I believe, a little forward of amidships, where her back was after wards said to be broken. The captain refused to leave her. and with him stayed the three chief officers, the second en gineer and two quartermasters. They had a rough night of It and the captain became convinced that it was hopeless to save the vessel." GERMAN SHIP DISCIPLINE. Amcrlcnn Flap Placed at a. Disad vantage by the Sea "Lawyer. "Mr. Hill Is wise In placing his new ships under the German flag," said an ex-shipmaster who sailed under the American flag for 20 years. "The naviga tion laws of Germany," said he, "give the master of a ship absolute control over his crew in any port in the world. Tou can see a good Illustration of that fact right here in Portland, whenever Captain . better known as the 'Bremen devil,' reaches port He always arrives here with about half of his crew with the corners knocked off, and is some times subjected to mild Judicial Investi gation, but has never yet been seriously bothered for alleged mistreatment of his crew, and none of his mates are ever obliged to go in hiding to escape the law. This is because the German Gov ernment gives him almost unlimited pow er over the crew, and he makes them toe the mark. Not all of these German skip pers rule with a rod of iron as old man R does, but they all of them have the power to discourage the arguments of sea lawyers before the mast, and do not run any risk of having their ship de tained In port by enforcing this power whenever they deem it necessary." THROUGH ICE PART OF THE WAY British Steamship Quito Has Roagh Trip Across the Pacific. ASTORIA, Or., March 15. The British steamship Quito, which arrived in this afternoon from Mororan, reports having encountered exceptionally rough weather all the way across the Pacific. When 40 miles east of the Island of Yezo, she ran into an. immense ico floe. Tho ice- -was fully three feet In thickness, and the eteamer was forced to cut her way through for a distance of 40 miles. Sound ings taken immediately afterward showed 15 feet of water in the fore peak com partment. The pumps were put to work, and were able to keep the water clear. The Injury Is below the water line, so Its extent could not be definitely ascer tained, but it is supposed that some riv ets have been loosened. SEALING SCHOONERS DOING LITTLE. Season Thus Far Has Been a Failure, and Companies Will Lose Heavily. VICTORIA, B. C. March 15. The seal ing schooners are doing very little In the way of catching seals, ais a result of the heavy weather off the coast. The biggest catch reported to date is that of the schooner Penelope, which Is reported by the schooner Vera, from San Francisco, with 82 skins. There was a report from a steamer some -days ago that the Mary Taylor had 224, but unfortunately the re port was untrue. The Mary Taylor is now lying In Bamfleld Creek, according to ad vices received by the Queen City, repair ing her rigging and headgear, and she has but six skins on board. The City of San Diego dropped anchor in Bamfleld Creek on Wednesday, with 6 skins. She reported having spoken the schooner Llb ble on March 5, 60 miles south of Cape Flattery, with 10 skins, and the BChooner Otto, on the 9th, with three skins. The Otto was starting to resume her cruise, after repairing damages received on the coast. The schooner Victoria returned to Dodgers' Cove on March 8, to land two sick Indians. The Victoria left Dodgers' Cove on February 15, and endeavored to work south, but on account of the heavy southeasterly gales she got but 100 miles south of the Columbia. Two seals onjy were seen during the trip, and none taken. The Ocean Belle was spoken on March 1. She had taken no skins. The season so far has been a complete failure, and the sealing company will suffer heavily. D. G. S. Quadra returned today from Cape Bcale and Carmanah Lights, where the lighthouses were given supplies and provisions. At Cape Beale a wrecked schooner was seen, broken on the beach, and the lighthouse-keeper showed the watchcase there were no works and chronometer found. Nothing was seen of the Laura Pike derelict. H. Manuel, a sailor ot ,the steamer Um atilla, dropped dead as he was wheeling a truckload, of skins to the steamer this evening. The body was taken to San Francisco, where Manuel Joined the steamer. RIGGERS RETURNED TO WORK. Labor Troubles on the Bark Anlc Have. Been Partially Adjusted. The riggers, liners and other workmen employed by Robert Mcintosh on the French bark Asle all returned to their work yesterday morning, after a strike lasting but little over a day. The cir pentcrs and others employed on -the ves sel did not return yesterday, but there is a fair prospect that they will go to work tomorrow. The matter will be dis cussed and some conclusion arrived at today at a meeting to be held this after noon. The differences between the em ployers and employes arc not of a suf ficiently serious nature to prevent an amicable settlement without much Trou ble, and from present appeirances there will be but little delay to the work.

In the trial of Stewart Fife for the murder of Frank W. Richardson, the state today closed its side of the case. It asked, how ever, to be allowed to examine one other witness. Lydia Fuson, who Is ill. If she is able to come Into court next week. The state previously nsserted that it would prove by this woman that Fife had made admissions to hep after the murder of Richardson that would connect him with the crime. She was not to be found when the state called her name two days ago. Sheriff Holcomb was recalled today and cross-examined about the finding of a re volver by Carl RIckoff In a sewer yester day. The state submitted as evidence this revolver, with the statement that the bul let taken from Richardson's head was of the .ime size as the empty shell found I In the revolver. james w. uoya, tne leading counsel ior Fife, then made the statement for his client. The defense would show, he said, that Richardson had once asked his wife to drive Fife down to the square: that when he went to North Yakima, Wash., after the murder, he did not cover up his whereabouts; that the revolver found by the RIckoff boy was placed there a long time after the murder; that Fife was at the Owl Clubrooms at the time the mur der was committed. Mrs. Addle B. Richardson, widow of the dead man, was the first witness called by the defense. She told the story of the murder as she related it at her own trial a month ago. Commissioner Foard oa New Pilots ASTORIA, March 15. When questioned this afternoon about the report published in today's Oregonian that the Oregon Board of Pilot Commissioners had agreed to appoint six new pilots, Martin Foard, chairman of the board, said: "So far as I know no member of the board was Invited to be present at tne meeting of the trustees of the Portland Chamber of Commerce with President Mohler yesterday. When we did meet with the trustees some time ago we expressed our willingness to appoint additional pilots to any number. If we found that the pres ent.number was not sufficient, and we will do "so. Beyond this we have made no agreement or arrangement, and will use our own judgment In the matter." Fine Aa-nlnst French Bark Reduced. ASTORIA, March 15. A telegram was received from the Treasury Department today stating that the fine of $5000. re cently placed against the French bark Sierra Vantana by Collector of Customs Fox for failure to bring Consular bills of health, had been reduced to $10. The vessel came here from SL Denis, Reunion Island, via Port Adelaide. Her captain's excuse was that when he left the former port he had no expectation of coming to an American port. He dropped anchor 15 miles off Port Adelaide, and no one but himself went ashore from the bark. All the clearance papers were secured by the agents of the vessel, and if any were missing the agents were the ones at fault Follows the North German Lloyd. HAMBURG. March 15.

Arrived Steamer RAID BY RIVER PIRATES. Running Fight With Thieve at Throgrsr's Neck, Long Island. NEW YORK, March 15. River pirates have raided the handsome residence of John A. Morrlj. at Throgg's Neck, on Long Island Sound, and after a running fight with pistols with two caretakers, escaped in a yacht with more than $1000 worth of silver plate. The Morris man sion adjoins the country estate of Collis P. Huntington, and is guarded during the Winter season by two caretakers. They were asleep when the robbers raised a ladder to the second story, broke a window, and, creeping into the sleeping room, covered the caretakers with pistols. The men were bound, but succeeded In loosening the cords. They secured re volvers, and -the robbers, who were at work downstairs, fled with the caretakers in pursuit. Many ineffective shots were exchanged. A dory was anchored on the beach, and into this the pirates threw a heavy bag filled with silverware, leaped after it, and while one manned the oars his companion kept up a steady fire with his pIstoL The caretakers answered shot for shot A short distance from the beach a yacht was waiting, ana the pirates apparently reached this In safety. The caretakers saw several men on the yacht make sail hurriedly, and the boat swung into the wind and raced oil down the Sound. Returning to the house, the caretakers picked up on the way more than $500 worth of Bllverware which the pirates had dropped in their flight Merchant in Bad Business. SAN ANTONIO. Tex., March 15.
