Perilous Experience of the
China Liner Indraveiii.
TWO DAYS OF ROUGH WEATHER
Decks Swept T Contlnmcm Seas,
Beats Smashed and Cabins Flood
ed Xo Loss of Life Ship
Brings Heavy Cargo.
The Portland & Asiatic liner Indraveiii,
Captain Craven, has arrived after the
roughest passage of any steamer of the
company 3ince the line was started. For
Turn dnvs shA was virtually at the mercy
of the elements and though she was )
eomewhat battered up, she came though
Jt without any loss of life. Two days out
from Yokahama the steamer ran Into a
hurricane that made progress almost im
possible. The storm really began on Sunday, Feb
ruary 8, when the Indraveiii encountered a
Srcsh gale. This swelled to whole-gale
proportions on tho following morning. A
sea mountain-high wan running and im
mense quantities of water were shipped.
Time and again huge waves swept the
ship's deck fore and aft. From 4 o'clock
In the morning until noon the fury of the
gale did not abate a particle. The steamer
lurched and labored heavily, at times
vnder the foaming sea, again with her
otern high out of the water and the en
gines racing. An attempt was made to
heave to, but this could not be accom
plished without putting the ship in the
trough of the sea. The waves dashed in
two port lifeboats, stove in tho side ports
and flooded the cabins. As It was Im
possible to keep steerage way, oil was
used to some advantage. During the
afternoon the gale continued, but by night
the weather had moderated slightly. Tues
day morning opened with the wind fresh
and strong and gradually lessening in
force. Tuesday afternoon they had fine
weather.
"With all the damage done, there were no
serious casualties. Several sailors were
knocked down and bruised by the seas
that tore along the decks and the 14 Jap
anese and four Chinese passengers in
the steerage were made deathly seasick.
The IndraveUl's round trip was made in
79 days. She sailed out from Astoria
December 10 and on the way across en
countered adverse winds, high seas and
frequent galea The JSOth meridian was
crossed December 22 and the ship reached
Yokohama January 2, where she met the
Indrasamha. Leaving Yokohama four
days later the steamer arrived at Kobe
on the 8th, making a two daya' stay in
that port. Mojl was reached on the 11th,
and sailing the following day the steamer
arrived at Hong Kong on January 17. The
last of her weGt-bound cargo was dis
charged, the eastbound freight taken
aboard and on January 25 the return trip
began.
Out from Hong Kong the Indraveiii got
Into a strong northeast monsoon, with
.fog for two days and a high head sea.
She arrived at Mojl February 1. sailed on
the 2d, reached Kobe on the 3d, sailed on
the 5th and arrived at Yokohama the next
day, where she found the Indrapura in
In port. Leaving out from Yokohama on
the 7th the steamer two days later had a
Bpell of the hurricane weather that made
things interesting. The Columbia River
lightship came into sight late In the af
ternoon of the 26th and at 9 o'clock the
following morning tho steamer crossed in.
She left up from Astoria at noon Friday
and anchored for the night down the
river, reaching Alaska dock at 8 o'clock
yesterday morning.
The Indraveiii brings a large qargo,
most of which 1s matting. The hatches
were opened soon after her arrival and
by nightfall good progress had been made
In the work of discharging her. The
steamer's cargo In detail Is as follows:
851 bales of gunnies, 24,400 rolls of
matting, 2004 cases of tea, 1000 bags of
peanuts, 12.S45 bags of rice, 487 cases of
Chinese groceries, 210 cases of pineapples,
SC5 tuba of soya, 59 cases of provisions,
300 bales of straw braid, 10 tons of paper
makers' clay, 1C5 bundles of rattans, 39
bundles of bamboos, 40 bundles of cane
chairs. 5S cases of curios, 227 cases of
firecrackers. S05 packages of spices, pep
per, cinnamon, nutmegs, cloves, ginger,
etc, 4 bales of rugs, 8 cases of porcelain,
9 cases of miscellaneous merchandise and
1 case of spice, valued at $3950.
FEBRUARY GRAIN EXPORTS.
Fentnre of the Month Were Heavy
Shipment to AuNtrnlin and Africa.
Grain exports in .February do not make
as favorable a showing as in the same
month in tho two preceding years. The
total shipments, flour reduced to wheat
measure, were 937,137 bushels, as com
pared with 1.G77.S25 bushels in February,
3902, and 1.570.40G bushels in the same
month in 1901. Flour shipments were also
lighter, as the sailing dates of tho Ori
etal steamers did not allow a clearance
during the month
For the same reaon
the flour exports in January greatly ex- I
ceeaeu those or the same month in 1902
ana vmi. ana the same will be true of the
shipments in March of this year. Tho
feature of the wheat movement in Febru
ary was the largo amount sent to Aus
tralia. 413.929 bushels, a market that did
not take any Oregon grain in either of the
two years with which comparison is made.
San Francisco was also a heavy buyer In
the month, the shipments to that port
aggregating nearly 119.000 bushels. No
grain went from here to San Francisco in
February a year ago. and in February,
1901, he exports were only about SOW
bus Js. But three grain cargoes were
shipped from Portland last month to the
United Kingdom.
TRIAL OF THE HOWARD,
New Quartermaster's Stejuner Given
n Satisfactory Test.
The trial trip of the Quartermaster's
steamer Major Guy Howard yesterday
afternoon was a success in every particu
lar. Though no attempt was made to
speed her, she easily reeled off 12 knots
an hour on the run. Fred A. Ballin. the
designer of the boat; Colonel Hathaway
and several officers of the Quartermas
ter's Department at Astoria and Vancou
ver. vere aboard. The steamer only went
down as far as the mouth of the Wil
lamette, but that was sufficient to satisfy
all of the success of the boat. A few
finishing touches are to be put on. and the
steamer will then be turned over to the
department.

bill of sale was filed in the Custom-House
today 'whereby the Columbia River Pack
ers' Association sells the hull of the old
steamer Alarm to J. M. Bertrand, of Port

Alarm was used for a number of years as

the vessel left her this morning, and, com

Acting German Consul to be discharged
and paid off. They refuse to go to Esqui

technically unseaworthy condition, and
under the German marine laws they ore
not compelled to go, and must be paid off

RELATIVES MAKE DESPERATE AT
TEMPT TO SATE DE FALCO.
His
SoB-lH-La-rr .Files Complaint in
County- Co art and Beard ef Phy
sicians Will Investigate.
A complaint charging Francesco de
Falco. who killed his wife with a hatchet,
with Insanity, was filed in the County
Court yesterday afternoon by his son-in-law,
Angelo Mazzacco. The examination
by Judge "Webster and physicians will be
held on Monday. District Attorney John
Manning will attend the examination, and
also De Falco's attorney, Albert F err era.
Some of the prisoner's children may be
examined as witnesses.
De Falco, after he appeared for ar
raignment before Judge Sears Friday
aftcrnoon, was taken to the county Jail
and was locked up in a celL He kept
quiet for a little while, and then com
menced to butt his head against the steel
bars. Jailer Jackson was summoned by
some of the otner prisoners, and when he
arrived be found De Falco bleeding freely
from numerous bad scalp wounds, 'and
raving like a madman. He was at once
removed from the cell, and guarded, so
that he could do himself no further harm.
Ccunty Physician E. P. Geary was called
and dressed the wounds.
YesterdayDe Falco was .placed In tho
padded cell and muffs were put on his
nanas.
Attorney Ferrera has tried to obtain
lucid statement from Do Falco a number
of times, but without success. When ho
asked De Falco why he killed his wife
the man answered: "I didn't kill her; she
is ner now: don t you see her?"
Do Falco calls constantly for his chil
dren, and talks irrationally at all times,
Mr. Ferrera states that De Falco's chil
dren have informed him that their father
has acted strangely for some time past.

TWELVE YEARS.
Castronovo, Who Killed Another
Italian, la Sentenced.
G. Castronovo, who killed Joseph Gug
lielmo, a saloonkeeper, at the corner of
First and Ciav streets, on Christmas eve,
was sentenced to 12 years in the peniten
tiary by Judse Cleland yesterday. The
extreme penalty provided by the statute
is 15 years. Dan R. Murphy, attorney for
the prisoner, was allowed 20 days to pre
pare a bill of exceptions for an appeal to
the supreme Court.
Before the sentence was pronounced
Castronovo made the following statement
to the court. . through an interpreter: "I
was going home when Joe Guglielmo came
to the door and pointed a revolver at me,
I turned around and aw two men trying
to get hold of me. I told them to let me
go about my business. They took hold
of me by the leg and pulled me down on
the sidewalk. I took my knife and de
fended myself. After that I got up and
went away."
This disjointed statement threw no ad
ditional light on the affair, because sev
erat witnesses tcsunea alter the same
manner at the trial Castronovo's lawyer
had nothing to say, and Judge Cleland, in
pronouncing sentence, was brief and made
no comment on the case whatever. He
simply said: "The sentence of this court
is that you be confined in the state pent
tentiary for a period of 12 years, and that
you pay a fine of JL"
The last part of the sentence doesn'
mean anything, but is merely a compll
ance with a requirement of the statute.
Castronovo's friends have collected con
sldcrable money for hhn among the Ital
lans nere, ana it is stated that money
was also raised In San Francisco. The
appeal to the Supreme, Court will be
prosecuted- If the funds have not given
out.

PATIENTS" BILL GET OX.
Measure Was Prepared by Federa
tion of Women's Clubs, but Was
Defeated by Sheriffs.
PORTLAND, Feb. 25. (To the Editor.)
Since the adjournment of tho Legislature
I hive been watching the columns of your
valuable paper, hoping to find published
therein the details of the defeat of our
bill In the House. I refer to the bill pro
viding for the transportation of insane
patients In charge of an asylum attend
ant (and said attendant a womm in case
the patient be a woman), instead of in
care of Sheriffs or their deputies. This
bill was introduced by Senator Smith, of
Umatilla, at. the instance of the Oregon
Federation or omen s iuos. i
the Senate in spite of benator i? uuon a i
eloquent plea on behalf of the Sheriffs
graft. In the House, however, it met the
combined opposition of the Sheriffs and
the political ambition of the Representa
tives. The Multnomah delegation, to a man,
s.ood by the measure, and resisted alike
the blandishments and threats of our
own Sheriff Storey, who considered it his
duty and it seemed to be also his privi
legeto work on the floor of the House
as well as In the lobby.
Although this bill would have saved to
our State Treasury at least half of the
JS0.000 appropriated for the transportation
of insane patients during the next two
years, and although it would mean more
humane treatment of these unfortunates
on their way to the asylum, 27 of our
Legislators voted themselves on the black
list, which is on record In every woman's
club in the state.
Our roll of honor carries' these names:
Bailer of Multnomah, Banks of Multnomah,
Cobb of Multnomah. Fisher- ot Multnomah,

Harvard's Employment Bureau.
Boston Herald.
Although it is not generally known.
Harvard University conducts what is In
a small way an Intelligence office for stu
dents of the institution. The scheme works
pretty well for prospective teachers, but
Its usefulness for others la susceptible of
infinite development. One trouble Is that
the bureau has always been In charge of
officers who have enough to do without
adding Its labor to their burden. It 1? con
tended by the faculty that Harvard 13
first of all an institution of learning, and
that It should not be made an employ
ment office, even for the very best of its
graduates', 'to the extent of being on the
lookout for jobs.
The quest was discussed by several
graduates on a recent evening at the
union. One ventured the remark that he
could not think it was more undignified

comings of the registration bureau. Two
years ago a big manufacturing concern
in Pennsylvania applied for several young
men, and letters were duly sent to the
students. The prospects were such that
more than one employed student thought
strongly of making a change, but, owing
'to two peculiar requirements, hesitated,
hoping to learn of actual conditions from
fellow studenft who accepted. Strange to
say, If any did enter the work, no record
was kept at the college office, so there

the opportunities offered.
THE TARIFF ON ART.
Success Should Attend the Movement
for Removal of Restriction.
Louisville Courier-Journal.
One of the absurdities of the Dinsley
tariff is the 15 per cent ad valorem duty
on w'orks of art, by means of which our
pe0ple are deprived of the opportunity to
ee SLnd en1ov manv snlendid collects
see and enjoy many splendid collections
of priceless treasures. For instance, J.
Pierpont Morgan does not confine his
purchases to railroads and steamships. He
Is also a collector of paintings, books and
other artistic objects, and he has the purse
of Fortunatus with which to gratify his
desire for works of art. The result has
been that It Js said on good authority he
has now acquired $35,000,000 worth of pic
tures and other artistic creations which
he ptores in Europe and in his London
home. If the tariff Is removed he will
bring them to this country and place
them where millions may see his master
pieces without, charge. At present a col
lection worth millions Is in the British
museum, though, but for tho- tax on art,
it would be In the United States.
The United States has grown in wealth,
and with riches are coming refinement and
culture, but their development Is re
stricted under the silly excuse of protect
ing American art. An art or a learning
that requires the protection of a tariff is
not worth having. Art has developed itself
In the face of every privation, but It de
velops more rapidly when facilities are
Slven for the study of the masterpieces
! Europe Is full of art galleries, while our
i collections in America are so few that we

Inspecting the works of the immortals.
The tariff which restricts their Importa
tion Is too petty to be worth considera
tion for a moment. A movement is on
foot to secure the repeal of the tarff, and
by all means It should succeed. Every
blow that Is given the stone wall of pro
tection will Improve the position of the
country- Certainly there Is no excuse
for shutting out art collections.
POLICEMAN UNDER FIRE.
Charged With Letting Red Lights
Burn Too Brightly.
NEW YORK, Feb. 23. Charges were to
day preferred against Police Inspector
Adam A. Cross by the District Attorney's
office. The charges allege that while he
was in command ot the First Inspection
District, known as the "redlight district,"
from 1S37 to 1301. he "knowingly permitted
violations of the law." He has been sus
pended during his trial, which has been
set for March 6.
English in the Philippines.
Providence Journal. .
Contrary to the current belief, it ap
pears that the Filipinos are not generally
able to speak the Spanish language or any
other than their own dialects. As these
vary greatly, no one of them can be em
ployed as a common medium of communi
cation, and experience Justifies the first
decision to make English the language of
the schools. Indeed, to teach the children
to read and write their own dialects would
be of little use to them, for after they had
learned to do so further progress would
cease, as there is no literature for them to
study. The knowledge of the language of
a civilized nation, on the other hand,
would of Itself be, to a certain extent, a.
liberal education for these people, as they'
would thus have a world of information
made accessible to them from which they
would otherwise be excluded. This policy
is in marked contrast with that followed
by most European nations in their Ori
ental possessions, and Its results will be
watched with Interest.
