THE SUNDAY 0KEG0NIA3. PORTLAND, MAY IS, 1902.
MAY 00 TO SOUTH AFRICA
JttEPORT THAT SPEKE HAS BEEN
TAKEN FOR. CAPE BUSINESS.
gTa&e With Dark Continent Is Doom-
lner LeTrlston Planning; Boat for
"Upper Snake Marine Notes.
There -was a report yesterday that the
toammoth ship Speke, which has been
lying idlo at Astoria for several weeks,
has been chartered to load wheat and
flour et Portland for South Africa. The
report could not be confirmed last even
InET, but it is probable that the biff vessel
will find business within a few days, if
Bha, is not already taken, as there is an
Increasing demand for breadstuffs from
the Cape of Good Hope ports. The fleet
from the Northwest for South Africa re
ceived another addition yesterday In the
British bark Braemar, which has been
tying at Royal Roads since May 3.
Bhe will load at Tacoma for Cape Town,
fend will sail early in June. If the Speke
la taken It will Improve the chances for
business for the French bark Asle, which
rill be ready for cargo In a short time,
fes she will be the only available craft
or spot loading, and her owners will
probably be willing to accept a low rate
n order to get her out where she can
fcgain ba earning the bounty.
"When a British or German ship lays
bp, she loses, only the time and the money
fehs might have received for carrying car
go, but -when a Frenchman Is compelled
to remain idle, his loss by failure to re
telve the mileage bounty is generally
greater than through loss of freight. The
Asle could have earned a bounty of over
$15,000 had she been sailing for the last
3Tour months, instead of being laid up In
Jtbe harbor piling up expenses. The steam
chip Quito has not yet succeeded in pick
ing up a cargo, and as delays are -much
jnore expensive for steamers than sall
fers, her owners will be heavy losers by
fehe flattening out of the freight market
JCET7 ORIENTAL LIKE.
h
ostoK Steamship, Company Coming
Jno Paolfio Trade- at Dull Season.
Iesplto the surplus of steam tonnage
how lying Idle in Pacific Coast waters
fend the fact that steamers plying to Ori
ental and Siberian ports are going out
jwith hardly cargo enough to keep them
properly ballasted, the Boston Steamship
Company -is coming into the trade with
to. fleet of good-sized steamers la the near
Suture. The new line Is to run from
tPuget Sound ports to the Orient, con
necting at a Japan port with a line
fwhich will run to Vladivostok. A San
jFrancisco paper reports that the new line
will begin operations August 1, and Frank
OTatexhouse, who waa so successful in
chartering steamships of the Manauense
type to the Government, will be manager
fef the sew line.
The Boston Steamship Company is com
posed of Eastern capitalists who formerly
operated the Boston Towboat Company.
The new line "will be devoted exclusively
to freight, and satisfactory arrangements
ere said to havo been effected with the
Northern Pacific Railroad. The vessels to
be used Include the Pleiades and Hyades,
well known, on the Pacific Coast, and for
come months past in the coal trade; the
X.yra and Shawmut, exceptionally large
carriers, now en route from the East
with coal cargoes, and the Tremont,
which is to be launched In a few weeks
at Sparrow Point, near Baltimore. All
these steamers were built at the same
place. The Shawmut is a new and finely
equipped freighter of over 000 tons net
register.
BOAT ITOR. UPPER SNAKE
Harare One May Not Bo Built, hut
Smaller One May.
Navigation of the Upper Snake River Is
again receiving considerable attention
from the citizens of Lewlston, Idaho, and
while the project of building a large
steamer for the trade seems to have fall
en through, they are now considering
one for a less expensive boat. The Trib
unB of Friday has the following regard
ing the latest scheme:
"The governing board of the Commer
cial Club met last night to consider the
upper river boat situation. The delicacy
of proceeding with a second proposition
iwhlis the first was still pending was fully
realized by the board, but the necessity
for prompt action in providing transpor
tation was also a condition that had its
rweight. The board understood that the
amount required on the first proposition
Shad not been secured and probably could
pot be secured, and that there was no
apparent likelihood that the large boat
fcould be put upon the river in season for
this year's navigable water in any event.
)On the other hand they had the assurance
jthat the smaller boat would be put in
bperation within 90 days or less, and as
Sit waa the common desire to get a boat
ion the river as speedily as possible and
tect the traffic started, the board decided
to encourage and assist the enterprise
'without detracting in any -way from the
Mrst project. The proposition now is made
by Captain McCullough and Engineer
iDan Field, of the steamer Spokane, who
fegree to construct and operate a boat to
fcost not leas than $6500, If they can obtain
a loan of $4000 from Lewlston citizens
Secured by mortgage on the property. A
guaranteed maximum rate schedule ac
companies the proposition and other prop
ter safeguards are reserved to the trustees
jto incorporate in the final agreements.
TThe board elected J. D. C. Thelssen, Ezra
feaird and Matthew Scully to serve as
trustees and to assist the principals in
procuring the necessary financial support-
EAST SIDE LAUNCHES.
fSevr Tovrboat and Portable Bath,
house Put in "Water Yesterday.
A towboat and a bathhouse were
launched from East Side boatyards yes
terday morning, Joseph Supple eendlng
into the water the first .section of the
new portable bathhouse which Is expected
to lessen the work of the Coroner and
undertakers this Summer. The towboat
which took her initial plunge was the
Anchor Towing & Lightering Company's
new steamer Paloma, which was launched
from Johnston's yard near the Madlson
etreet bridge. The Paloma was built to
replace the Governor Newell in Captain
Charles Hill's towing business, and is a
very handsome little craft. Her dimen
sions are: Length, 102 feet; beam, 21 feet;
depth of hold, 5 feet. She is equipped
with engines from tho Governor Newell
and will ba ready for business in about
two weeks. The steamer was christened
by Miss Constance Davis, daughter of C.
R. Davis, vho is interested with Captain
Hill In the new steamer.
Combine Has Big Plans.
NEW YORK, May 17. With tho inten
tion of centralizing the terminals of all
lines to bo operated by the navigation
syndicate, plans have been filed with the
dock department providing for 12 new
piers, extending from Little "West Twelfth
street to West Twenty-third street, along
North River. Should this improvement
be agreed to it will cost tho city at least
$8,000,000.
The new piers would be E00 feet long,
find the plans specify a breadth of 125
feet. They will be B0 feet longer than
those occupied by the two English com
panies. Had a Presentiment.
NEW YORK, May 17. In a letter writ
ten just before he started on his last
Voyage, which ended when his ship was
destroyed In the roadstead off St. Pierre
toy tho explosion of Mount Pelee, Captain
G. T. fuggah indicated that he had a
presentiment of impending disaster. The
jtac yaa written to an old friend tho
Government
steamer.
To Captain "Muggab, Mount Pelee, in
Martinique, and the Souffrlere, of St. Vin
cent, were old acquaintances. More than
once ne naa saiiea unaer tneir snaaows,
and he had not the confidence in them that
was displayed by the natives of the "West
Indian Islands. In his letter he said:
"Wo are leaving here for Martinique in
the morning, and I hope the old Roralma
will do as well as she did on her last
voyage. We have same passengers this
trip, including the mate's family and
others. I hope that they will get through
all right. I heard a peculiar yarn from
a priest not long ago about the forming
of a lake on tha summit of Mouht Pelee,
like the one formed la 1S12 on Souffrlere.
Really, I have a creeping sensation when
under the lee of the mighty crater."
Stxvr It From a TJlstance.
NEW YORK, May 17. The British
steamship Lord Antrim, has arrived at
Perth Amboy from St. Lucia,-from which
port she sailed on May 6. The officers
said that on the day before the violent
eruptions they passed close to Martinique,
and saw that Mount Pelee was in erup
tion, and that smoke and flames were
rising from it. Their coats were covered
with dust, and when they tried to brush
it oft it smeared the clothing. The air had
a peculiar taste, and there was a. gassy
odor. They attributed this to the erup
tions, but sailed on. This was 25 hours
before the eruption that caused the catas
trophe. Chief Officer Williams, comment
ing up the affair, after reading the
newspaper accounts, said:
"We were in range of Pelee all night,
and on the mprnlng which saw the grand
outburst we could see the smoke high In
the air. Of course, no one could realize
clearly the situation, but it seems to me
that every ship should have got away. It
is past understanding Why they remained
that night."
V
Tag Loses Three Barge.
PORT TOWNSEND, May 17. A heavy
westerly storm, is raging in the Straits of
Fuca. The tug Bonita, from Seattle, tow
ing four barges, two loaded with machin
ery and cannery supplies for Falrhaven,
and two with coal for Alaska, was caught
in the storm. She lost three barges off
Point Wilson and had a hard time of it
reaching this place -with the remaining
barge, which was laden with coal. The
machinery and supplies were valuable and
belonged to the Alaska Packing Associa
tion. German Steamer Lost.
ADEN, Arabia, May 17. The .German

Marine Notes.
The schooner John A. arrived up' from
Astoria about 10:30 yesterday morning,
thu3 completing her trip from dock to
dock, San Francisco to Portland, In less
than one weelc
Quite a number of steamboat excursions
are planned for today, and as the weather
thus far has been very unfavorable for
river excursions, the boats will probably
be crowded today, if the weather Is fine.
The river is slowly backing up toward
the lower part of Front street, but tho
cooler weather has had the effect of
checking the rise up the Snake, and property-owners
are hoping that some of the
surplus will run off before the rest comes
down.
Tho German bark Nomla was loading
wheat yesterday and will finish during
the coming week. The Lord Shaftesbury
will commence discharging ballast Mon
day. The Carl, which Is loading lumber,
will probably finish Tuesday.

MEAT QUESTION SETTLED.
Right Food to Tnlce Ita Place.
"The shortness of the meat supply and
tho high price of steak is not an unmiti
gated evlL On the contrary it is a prob
able blessing," says the Brooklyn Eagle.
"If meat could be raised to aorlco that
would make it prohibitory, it mlht still
be of good result, because it would teach
those who depend almost entirely upon it
to widen their dietary and learn to enjoy
many good things of which they are now
ignorant. To many, especially in tho
cities, there are but three foods meat, po
tatoes and bread. The weary monotony
of this programme, the unsatisfied but
Indefinite longings for a widening of
affect appetite and surely affect spirits
and 'temper. '
"The laborer goes to his work filled with
meat, potatoes and bread. At noon ho
finds cold meat and bread in his dinner
pall, and at night he is confronted by
meat and potatoes, sometimes separate,
6ometlmes combined Into a greasy stew,
sometimes chopped into hash.
"This kind of thing fills him, but In a
finer sense it can hardly be said to feed
him. Physicians have discovered that a
limited and unchanging diet lowers vital
ity and health."
Such a time as this gives every one an
opportunity to test the value of Grape
Nuts aa a food and prove to themselves
that it more than takes the place of meat
and really furnishes more nourishment
for the body and greater strength and vi
tality for the brain and nervous system;
it Is also an economical food that reduces
the cost of living to the minimum.
Grape-Nuts are probably entitled to the
lalm to be the most perfect adapted food
for hunJan needs now extant. The meat
eater and the vegetarian, aro alike
charmed with Its crisp tasto and tho deli
cate flavor of grap& sugar and tho care
ful housewife is attracted by the fact that
