Teasels Supplant Steamers.
The O. B. & J?. Co.'a big slde
wheeler T. J. Potter got away on her
Initial voyage of tho season promptly at
12 30 yesterday afternoon, and the sea
side business Is on onco more. Tho Pot
ter has been placed In thorough repair,
and made a very pretty appearance as
6he swung out Into the stream yesterday
noon with her decks crowded with peo
ple. She left the dock with the largest
crowd that has ever taken the "first
boat" for tho beach, there being over 2G0
pafcengers aboard. Of this number 165
vi ere from Boise, Idaho, and the remain
der -were Portlanders bound for a Sun
day outing at the beach. The Potter is
in command of Captain Joseph Turner,
who has made an excellent record on the
route, and is very popular with tho trav
eling public He Is assisted by Pilot Sam
uel Colson, with Jacob ilultbauf, chief en
gineer; "W. Ii. Smith, purser, and Julius
Oliver, first officer.
The seaside business does not generally
commence until after July 4, but if the J
first trip of tho Potter Is a criterion, the
movement "will be heavier by July 1 than
it usually Is two weeks later. Tho Potter
runs through -without stops between Port
land and Astoria.
BRIVIXG STEAMERS OUT,
Modern-Built Schooners Xovr Favor
ites In tlio IiTixnucr Trade.
With tho decline of ocean freights, the
export lumber trade of the Pacific Coast
is undergoing a change, and the tramp
eteamers arc being supplanted by the big
fleet of modern-built lumber-carriers
which came into existence within the
past few years. Four of these latest
types of lumber-carriers oro now loading
in this por for foreign countries, and
yesterday another of the big "fore-and-afters"
was reported chartered to load
lumber or piles at Portland for tho Ori
ent. The latest addition to the fleet is
the schooner Forest Home, a big four
master, with a carrying capacity of up
ward of 1,000,000 feet of lumber. She
made on trip to Portland in the coasting
trade a few months ago, but has pre
viously been engaged in the foreign trade.
Those already in .port under engagement
for foreign business are the Ariel, Eldo
rado, Fred J. Wood and Churchill, and
the aggregate carrying capacity of the
quartet is about 4,000,000 feet While this
is Just about equal to the big cargo car
ried away by the steamship Oceano a
year ago, the cost of operating the four
schooners is so much less than that of
the -one steamer that they are undoubted
ly much more profitable when rates are
low than are the steamers.
An advantage In favor of the schooner
lies in the fact that Oregon and Wash
ington have practically unlimited facili
ties for increasing the size of the fleet,
and nearly every dollar of the cost of the
vessels finds Its way into circulation
among the Pacific Coast cities. The For
est Home is due at Portland next month,
and the barkentine Amarlnth, which has
been chartered for the same business, will
reach Portland about the same time.
THE LATEST HERZOGIX.
Nevr School-Ship Hns Left for Ham
burg' to Load for Portland.
The North German Lloyd's mammoth
new school-ship, Horzogin Cecelia, has at
last headed in this direction, and, barring
any unnecessary delays at her loading
port, will get around to this port in time
for hor crew to spend Christmas here.
The new school-ship has Just been turned
out of the yards at Bremerhavcn and
Merchants' Exchange advices yesterday
report her sailing for Hamburg, where
she will load for Portland. The new ship
is a much larger carrier than the Her
zogln Sophie Charlotte, which was here
last year, having a capacity of 4000 tons
of freight, after making allowance for
the extensive quarters required by tho
crew of cadets and offlcers. She will -not
bring a full cargo to Portland, but will
have something less than 000 tons aboard.
She is already chartered for outward
loading from this port.
The Herzogln Cecelia is in command of
Captain Warnecke, who was here two
years ago with the Kerzogln Sophie Char
lotte. Both of thesa ships are operated
more for the purpose of schooling officers
for the steamers of the North German
lines than for profit, but during the re
, cent era of high freights the first school
ship proved quite a money-maker.
COMBINE WILL ECONOMIZE.
Offices of DiffercnTLinea to Be Con

NEW YORK. June 2S.-WIth tho de
parture of Messrs. Clement A. Grls
cora P. A. B. Weldener and William L.
JSikins from London, cables the corres
pondent there of the Herald, to Join
their respective yachts at Southampton,
It became known that these three gentle
men had attended a very important meet
ing of moving spirits in the Trans-Atlantic
Shipping syndicate. This meeting also
was attended by J. Plerpont Morgan.
Bruce Ismay and Bernard Baker, of tho
Atlantic Transport Line. It is under
stood tho subject of an economic ad
ministration of the different companies In
the combine was discussed. It practically
was decided that the different offices shall
be in a certain degree consolidated in fu
ture, effecting a great saving in the way
of officerent, clerk hire, etc
In the Fall another meeting will be held
in New York, when other questions, in
cluding that of agencies, will be ' dis
cussed. It !s quite probable many small
agencies will be abandoned.
There will be no change made in the
sailing schedules of the various lines
until next year, there being a number of
existing contracts which must be ful
filled before that can be done.
CAPTAIX AMESBURY RETIRED.
American Master of a British. Ship
Will Enter Stevedoring Business.
Captain Fred Amesbury, well known In
Portland and other Pacific Coast ports as
the American captain of a British ship,
has given up command of the British
bark Puritan, with which ho hns made so
many flash passages, and will cntor the
stevedoring business at Victoria and
Vancouver, B. C. He will become a part
ned with Captain James Gibson, another
well-known American skipper, who has
been doing business under the British flag
for a number of years. Under command
of Captain Amesbury, the Puritan made
the fastest passage on record between
Liverpool ana Victoria, covering the route
in 1W days. He also crossed the Pacific
from Yokohama to Cape Flatter' in 24
days, which Is getting down among the
good passages. Captain Amesbury ar
rived at Quecnstown from Tacoma with
his ship laft week, and loft her at that
port to look after the business Interests

SOUTH AFRICAN TRADE.
Tvro New Steamship Companies Start
a Service From Ncvr York.
NEW YORK, June 2S. Actual and pros
pective trade with South Africa has as
sumed such proportions since the termin
ation of the Ang!o-Boer war that two
steamship companies have inaugurated
service between tills city and South Af
rican points. It is the intention of the
agents to maintain a biweekly service
For the last few years the carrying trade
between this port and South Africa ha?
been In the hands of a combination con-
sisting of three lines. The new service
already has resulted in a reduction of
rates.
"The demand," said an official of on
of the new lines. "Is mainly for lumber
and building materials, for which cable
orders are coming to this country every
day, and also largely for supplies of
grain and agricultural Implements of all
liinds is very large and is rapidly increas
ing." FIRE ON GASOLINE LAUXCH.

STOCKS CONTINUE DULL
THIS CONDITION HAS BEEN THE
' FEATURE OF THE WEEK.
Klns's Illness Did Not Have as De
pressing an laflaeace as Exeet.
ed Industrials Are Neglected.
NEW YORK, June 23. Tho general
stock market today was practically Inert.
There were some speculative operations
In a few special stocks, but they had no
appreciable effect on the general list.
The bank statement did not reflect any
notable recuperation, but the condition
of the banks is welL maintained, .despite
the week's syndicate operations,, and prep
arations which have presumably been
mado for tho July settlement. The state
ment was considered negatively favor
able, therefore. There Is an expectation,
however, that there may be some shifting
of loans on Monday. Today's money and
exchange markets were nominal, but ster
ling, exchange at Paris fell centime,
thus narrowing the margin between the
point of profit on gold shipments. For
eign bankers believe gold may go out
next week.
Of today's special movements, tho rise
In Chicago & Eastern Illinois was due to
a suggestion that tho treasury stocks of
the road may be distributed to sharehold
ers. Illinois Central was moved up a
fraction above the price touched on the
day previous. The new stock Issued closed
at the top. The general market ran off
slightly at the close. The report of a
voluntary Increase of 10 per cent in wages
by the United .States Steel Corporation
seemed 'to make those stocks firm- The
closing was rather heavy. Prices of stocks
have been lower this week, with some re
covery. Review of the Wcelc.
The conspicuous feature of the market
has been its dullness. The event of ths
week, however, was the announcement of
the dangerous Illness of the King of
England. The elaborate ceremonies In
preparation for the coronation and the
sum total of disappointment Involved in
the postponement gave the event a sen
sational character that magnified its ef
fect out of proportion to its real power to
Influence political or financial affairs.
There 16 a serious element of loss in
volved to the business world of London,
and thero was, in addition, a large specu
lative commitment on the hope of trade
revival as the result of the end of the
war In South Africa, which might he
forced Into liquidation should the de
pressing effect of the King's illness check
the expected trade revival. There, was.
therefore considerable pressure of Amer
ican securities for London account on the
New York market. The London market
is heavily indebted to Paris and Berlin,
and the rate of exchange ran up to with
in a shade of the gold export point. Had
it not been for renewed selling by New
York of loan bills In the exchange mar
ket. It 13 probable that gold would have
been exported this week. The course pf
the exchange market was a factor In
checking stock market activity. The im
provement in the condition of King Ed
ward and the London holidays have re
lieved the New York market. Last week's
loan expansion and syndicate require
ments left our money market In no con
dition to support an active speculation
In any event.
The end of the halt year. and the prep
arations to be made for dividend and In
terest disbursements jn excess of "any
precedent emphasized the need of a cau
tious policy. The market gave evidence
of tho guardianship of powerful protec
tors, nevertheless. In .the occasional ad
vance of special stocks, notably the Gould
group, St. Paul, and Reading. The draw
ing out of tho coal strike and the possi
bility of Its early expansion among the
soft-coal miners has been Ignored. The
May reports of the anthracite-carrying
roads offer tho first opportunity to esti
mate the losses Involved in the paralysis
of the coal trade, but tho large declines
In earnings wero without apparent effect
upon the stocks of the railroads. Some
effect has been produced upon sentiment
by signs of discontent In other depart
ments of the labor world, but this has
found little active result In the sl0ck nar
ket. The conviction In the financial d!s
trlct is that the prosperity of the coun
try is, on the whole, 1111 well maintained.
The sustained hls;h level of railroad earn
ings at average increases over last year,
the volume of bank clearings, especially
outside the speculative centers, and the
extraordinary activity of the Iron trade
are taken as corroborative evidence, of
this. Confidence i3 general tfcat the year's
crops will be large, notwithstanding re
ports of unseasonable weather for corn
and unfavorable wheat reports. There
remain some misgivings regarding the
courso of tho money market during the
Fall, when the demand for currency and
maturing of foreign loans may converge
upon New York.
Industries Are Neglected.
There la a notable neglect of the Indus-s
trial stocks as a class, with United States
Steel a loader. The heavy and neglected
tone of these stocks Is attributed to un
certainty regarding their financial organ
ization, and the issue of bond3- ahead of
the stocks to provide working capital, or
for Improvements or other purposes. The
passage of the dividend on Colorado Fuel
Land on American Ice, preferred, this week
naa mnuea 10 increase me uneasiness or
holders of this class of securities. So the
conclusion has been reached by the Jour
nal of Commerce that the amount of new
capital embarked In such corporations
competing with the great combinations
has greatly exceeded the actual new cap
ital placed In the combinations them
selves. The disposition of old heads of
constituent companies forced out by the
combinations to embark In the new com
peting enterprises Is characteristic of the
new order of things.
The dull bond market has moved most
ly In sympathy with stocks. The new
United States 2s declined H. the 3s U and
the new 4s H per cent as compared with
the closing call of last week.
