HOT FIRE OX CXIOX AVENUE.
A. Ii. Dannon's Banket Factory Com
pletely Gutted Yesterday.
A hot fire broke out yesterday morning
at 4 o'clock in the wooden building on
the ilorth side of John P. Sharkey's brick
on the corner of Union avenue and East
Oak street, and several hundred dollars
of damage resulted. The building ex
tended from Union avenue back to the
alley in the middle of the block, and is
between the Sharkey brick on the south
and a brick on the north side. It was
occupied by A. L. Danson, manufacturer
of spiint baskets. It is owned by Scar
Bros. jDanson had it well filled with ma
chinery and stock.
Fire was discovered in the upper por
tion near the center, and it was blazing
brightly when the alarm -was sent in.
Englne Company No. 7, which has quar
ters in the same block, was quickly at
work. The upper portion of the structure
was burned off, and the Inside blackened.
As the building was a mere sneli, the nre
burned fiercely, and the efforts of the
firemen were put forth to prevent the
fire communicating to the two-story brick
of John P. Sharkey. Several times the
woodwork caught, but the fire did not get
Inside. There is a wooden stairway on
the north side of the brick, which was
partly burned. There was danger that
the fire would extend through the windows
of the brick, but this was carefully
watched and prevented.
Danson estimated the value of his ma
chinery and stock at $700, but as some of
it will be saved, his loss will not reach
this amount. He says he carried about
$300 insurance on his property, which will
partially cover his loss. He employed
four men, and his greatest loss is in the
interruption of his business. The build
ing was -a shell, and not worth perhaps
over $250. S. W. Marks had his office in
a. room adjoining. His desk containing
valuable papers was removed, and he sus
tained small damage.
REV. PETER BITTNER INJURED.
He Fell Fourteen Feet From a
Dwelling; on East Market Street.
Rev. Peter Bittner, the well-known Ger
man United Evangelical minister, is con
fined to his home, on the corner of East
Eighteenth and Powell streets, from the
effects of a dangerous fall from the two
etory dwelling on East Market, between
East Sixth and East Sevenyi' streets, a
few days ago. At first it was feared
that his injuries might prove fatal, but
the improvement in his condition for the
past few days gives hope that he will
recover. A friend saw him yesterday and
found him getting alongr as well as could
be expected. -.
His son was painting the building and
Mr. Bittner was on the scaffold, when
he fell 14 feet, striking on his back. There
were no bones broken, but it was feared
his Injuries were very serious. Some
years ago he sustained an Injury to his
hips, and It was fearea his fall might
be serious on that account. Mr. Bittner
is well known at various points in the
Willamette Valley, where he had been sta
tioned. He also had charge of the Ger
man United Evangelical Church on the
East Side up to the las.t conference, when
he retired from active work.
LUMBER SCHOONER LAUNCHED.
Wheeler Lumber Company's Vessel
"Went Into River.
The big lumber schooner which has been
building at the Johnston boatyard, on East
Water street and Hawthorne avenue, for
the past few montlis. was successfully
launched yesterday evening. This is per
haps the largest lumber craft that has
ever been built in a Portland boatyard.
It Is for the Wheeler Lumber Company, of
Tillamook. It is 150 feet long and 13 feet
deep, and has a lumber-carrying capacity
of 500.000 feet. It will be provided with
three masts, and will be used by the com
pany for the transDortatlon of lnm'hnr n
San Francisco and other points. The up
per portion will be completed at once.
The craft is very strongly built, and In
some respects resembles the big barges
built for Hale & Kern, although not quite
bo long. Tnrough the center from stem
to stern is a solid timber bulkhead, and
every portion of the hull Is thoroughly
braced and timbered. The big hull raised
t high wave as she struck the water yes

Captain of the Little Steamer Trader
Complains of ,St ran pre Experience.
The captain, owner and navigator of
the little propeller. Trader, which nav
igates the Willamette River and the small
streams, brought hie craft to Supple's
"boat-yard this week, and complained that
it did not run right. He could not tell
what the trouble was, but it was some
thing. The Trader has twin screws and1
an engine in the center of the hulL Mr.
Supple pulled the boat on the ways, when
It was discovered that one of the screws
was gone.
"Well," said the owner, "who would
think that anybody would steal the
screw off my hoat? That beats me,"
"Yes," said the veteran boat-builder,
with a. wink of his left eye, "I never
heard of such a case before. It Is a
very remarkable and strange thing for
a screw to be stolen from a boat, es
pecially when It is In the water and
running."
He put on another screw and the cap
tain started off, determined to watch out
that his propeller screw is not stolen
again.
East Side Notes.
The neat little propeller, built at John
ston's boat-yard, on East Water and East
Clay streets, for F. M. Warren, cannery
man, has been launched. It will soon be
ready for service. It is "strongly construct
ed, with "ribs of oak," for all kinds of
service in connection with the Warren
Cannery Company's plant.

CHICAGO, May 31 James A. Patten,
Mayor of Evanston, and a prominent
Board of Trade operator, today brought
to a successful close the corner in May
oats which had dominated the market
fiince early last Fall. The profits cred
ited to Mr. Patton on the deal are esti

in corn began to mount skyward, last
year, on account of the crop shortage
It was learned that some one was tak

Chicago market and elsewhere. Prices
began to advance steadily, and around 37
it was known that Mr- Patton was trying
to work a corner.
On the big flurry on the Chicago Board
last December, May oats were pushed
to 4T&. Since that time reactions oc
curred, and when delivery day came this

NEW YORK BAX1C STATEMENT.
Gnin In Cash Less Than Estimated
Incrcnse in Loans.
NEW YORK. May 3L The Now York
Financier this week says:
The official statement of the New York
Associated Banks last week showed a gain
of 5L77L400 In cash, or $1,120,200 less than
the amount which was estimated from the
traceable movement of money during the
week. This discrepancy can be readily
accounted for. The estimate was based
on the returns collected for the Ave
days from Friday of the previous week
to Wednesday of last week, both days In
clusive, while the official statement em
braced the cash movement from Friday of
the previous week to Thursday of last
week, both days Inclusive; the official re
turn thus covering one day later than the
estimated movement, though Including
Friday last, which was a holiday. More
over, there was a shipment of J1.000.000
gold to Canada Thursday, making $2,000.
000 for the week, and probably other Im
portant changes in the bank cash oc
curred on the day. The official statement
of May 24 showed about 52.000.000 less cash
than that estimated for that week. This
difference was doubtless due to the aver
age system. The loans of the banks were
increased $15,100,300, probably largely re
flecting syndicate operations. There were
no indications of transfers of sterling bor
rowings to Europe, and therefore the in
crease of the loans must. It would seem,
have been due to domestic contracts, and
possibly also to preparations for June pay
ments of dividends. The deposits were
increased $16,575,400, or only $305,300 less
than was called for by the total of the
Increase of loans and of cash.
The difference is so slight, however, as
not to be important.
The required reserve was Increased $9.
143,550. Deducting therefrom the $1,771,400
gain in cash, leaves $2,372,450 decrease in
surplus reserve, making this item $11.929,.
000. At the corresponding date last year
it was $21,753,050.
The daily average of bank clearings
for the week of five days was $23,000,000
lower than in , the previous week of six
days, reflecting, to some extent, the small
business on the Stock Exchange. Eleven
banks show by comparison with the pre
vious week a net sain of $14,000,000 in loans.
Two of these banks gained a little more
than $4,000,000 each, while only one showed
a 'loss of over $1,000,000.

Mr. Inman's .
Statement :
The Oregonian's statement yes
terday morning concerning the posi
tion of our firm leads me to say:
That in the panic times Inman,
Poulsen & Co. were the last mill
owners by a year to reduce wages.
. That after the panic Inman, Poul
sen & Co. were the first to raise
wages.
That we employ more men than
any concern in Portland, and they
have always been satisfied with our
treatment of them.
That we are not now and never
have been unfriendly to organized
labor.
That we have entered into no
combination with other millowners
against the unions or union planing
mills, and do not intend to do so.
The Oregonian's representations
are incorrect and misleading.
