Newspaper Page TextTHE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 8, 1903. 13 GREAT SAILING SHIP Andorinha Chartered to Load Wheat Here. LARGER THAN ALSTERNIXE Vessel Is Coming From San Francisco and Will Take Her Cargo Next MonthBelongs to an Un- ' fortunate Line. A sailing vessel 2S5 tons larger thaa any that has evor entered this port has been chartered to load here, and "will be on hand In two or three weeks. She Is the Andorinha, a British four-masted steel bark, -with a carrying capacity of 5000 tons. Captain Nlcholls is her master. The fact that the record for size in steam vessels has Just been broken by the pres ence of the Algoa, and that one of the largest sailing ships afloat is soon to come should convince foreigners and Eastern people of the shipping facilities wo have hore. The Andorinha, -which is now at San Francisco, was taken by Balfour, Guthrie & Co. at 16s for the United Kingdom, December loading. The bark arrived at the Bay City September 25, after a CS days' passage from Newcastle, N. S. W.f bringing 49S2 tons of coaL She is nearly all discharged now, and will be ready to sail for Portland the latter part "of this week. The Andorinha hails from Swan sea, and Is owned by N. Goldberg & Sons. The bark was launched in September, 1S92, at the yards of W. Pickersgill & Co., at Sunderland, England. She is 316 feet long, 46 feet beam, and 25 feet depth of hold. Belonging to the same line as the An dorinha were the Andrada and the An delano, two fine vessels that were lost in Northern waters. Tho Andrada was bound for this p6rt for a grain cargo. Arriving off the mouth of tho river No vember 4. 10L the ship was boarded by Pilot Cordner and stood out to sea to await a favorable opportunity to enter the river. That was the last ever seen of her. The Andelana turned turtle in Ta coma harbor in January, 1S99, and went to tho bottom, where she still remains, carrying with her the captain and IS members of the crew. The ship was awaiting cargo, and, being light, was capsized by a squall, and almost imme diately sank. The master of the Ill-fated vessel was Captain Stalling, who had but a short time before been transferred to her from the Andorinha. FOR THE SAN FRANCISCO LINE Manchuria and Mongolia Will Go Into Oriental & Occidental Service. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7t The ap proaching completion of four giant trans pacific liners, two for J. J. Hill, at Se attle, and two for E. H. Harriman, at this port, Is the great topic of Interest among steamship officials and the large ship pers between this Coast and the Orient. The Manchuria and Mongolia ore prac tically sister ehlps to the Siberia and Korea, and are costing Harriman about 52.000.000. Much larger are the Minnesota and Dakota, that are just being completed for Hill's trans-Pacific line in connection with his Great Northern railroad. It Is authoritatively denied that the Manchuria and Mongolia will run -out of Portland In connection with the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company's line. They are to ne assigned to the Occidental &. Oriental Company at this port. In view of Hill's great preparations In tho North, Harriman will not stop with tho two new big liners, but says he will soon apply for increased dockage facilities at the port at San Francisco and as soon as these ore granted he will construct as many new liners as may be necessary to gain the bulk of the Oriental trade. Tho Harriman people assert that the steamer service between this port and the Orient will be more than a match for the Hill service at Seattle, both for freight and passengers. The Hill people are fig uring on a 25-days service between Lon don and Japanese ports via Seattle, as against CO days via Suez and on P. & O. steamers, and 49 days by the North Ger man Lloyd. They also figure on 31 days between London and Shanghai, as com pared respectively with the 47 and 44 days of the other two companies. By the trans-Siberian road the Journey from London to Port Arthur requires 20 days. The Hill people assert, however, that the long all-rail trip will not be pop ular with most Europeans.

Hosford, of the Washougal & La Camas Transportation Company, will launch his new gasoline passenger boat Monday. This boat is to be used for conveying passengers and light baggage between Vancouver and La Camas and other points In that vicinity. The boat is 70 feet in length, with a 13 foot beam, and Is propelled by powerful gasoline engines. It will accommodate 100 passengers, and will make two round trips a day, connecting with the Vancou ver cars at the ferry landing. Arrange ments have been inado with the street car company to 'Sell through tickets and give transfers to the cars. Mr. Hosford expects to carry the" mall to La Camas twice a day. A boat of this kind has long been need ed on this run, as there Is a good traffic botweon these points. JETTY NOT INJURED. Only a Few Piles In the Trestle Were Broken by the Gate. ASTORIA, Or., Nov. 7. Specials-Shipping men returning from the mouth of the river last evening reported that about 50 feet of the Jetty trestle had been car ried away by the recent gale. Engineer G B. Hogardt, who is In charge of the jetty construction, was communicated with by telephone today and said the damage to the Jetty amounted practical ly to nothing, that a few piles were brok en t different places, but it did not in terfere with the construction work, and rock was being hauled over the trestle as usual. New Turbine Channel Steamer. The associated companies which have canduptod the transportation service from Paris to London via Rouen, Dieppe and Ncwhavcn have recenUy put in service a new boat, the power for which is fur nished by engines of the turbine type. The boat is of 1150 gross fSns, and" the engines nro of 6000 to 7000 horsepower. On the trial trip the boat made 2L2 knots an hour. The three compound turbines are much lower than the older type of engines, and are arranged in the bottom of tho boat, leaving the decks free to voyagers. They emit no odor, are com paratively noiseless, and cause but little vibration. The number of revolutions, which in the first channel boats was 2000, is In the new boat reduced to 600. The first trip across the channel between Dieppe and Ncwhavcn, a distance of 64.75 miles, was made in 3 hours. Salmon Ship's Narrow Escape. SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 7. The Katie Davenport, a sailing vessel loaded with salmon, got caught in the sales sweeping Queen Charlotte Sound a few days ago and narrowly escaped going on the rocks while being towed to Seattle by the tug Shellkoff. The crews of both vessels worked hard, and at the end of a ten hour struggle another line was made fast. "When pulled up, the Davenport was with in a quarter of a mile of Rocky Point, and it seemed certain that she would pile up on the rocks. Southbound Vessels Delayed. SAin FRANCISCO, Nov. 7.

Great Chariot Scene In Fifth Act In troduces New Novelties in Stagecraft. Klaw & Erlanger's great spectacular production of General Lew Wallace's ster ling drama of the times of the Messiah, "Ben Hur," where So0 people will be on the stage, will be presented at the Mar quam Grand for five nights and two mat inees, starting Tuesday evening. Decem ber L It was brought to San Francisco November 2, and will be played there un interruptedly, with the exception of Sun days, until November 2S. Because of the enormous amount of stage room required, and the heavy expense, the only cities In the Northwestwhere "Ben Hur" will be played will be Portland, and afterward Seattle. To present "Ben Hur" In every artlstlcdetall, an entirely new stage will be built at the Marauam, which will be used as a substage. The present stage will be cut into sliding traps, so as not to Interfere with the performance. This part of tho work will cost the manage ment about $1500, and it will be done by a staff of 20 expert stage mechanics. Thls scene has been received everywhere as the acme of stage craft. Manager Edward G. Cooke, the general representative of Klaw & Erlanger, was seen at the Portland Hotel last night, and ho said: "Aside from the religious im presslveness of the play, the performance offers many novelties In the way of me chanical effects. There Is the Roman tri reme at sea, showing the rescue of Ben Hur, and the great chariot race in tho fifth act, when eight horses take part. Our new stage device wonderfully im proves the realistic effect. Now the horses gallop, the chariots rumble and ... ' . - ' , roll, the walls of the arena with its crowds of spectators whirl by, and the ground or stage seems fairly to fly from beneath the horses' feet and the great wheels of the chariots. This scene has cost our firm up to now about $13,500. "At the end of the San Francisco en gagement tho paraphernalia will be brought to this city on two special trains, one made up of ten 60-foot baggage cars for the scenery, and two stock cars for the horses and camels used In the spec tacle, tho other train for the company being composed of ten Pullman sleepers, two day coaches and two dining cars. This enormous equipment will give the gen eral public of this vicinity an Idea of the magnitude of 'Ben Hur.' The Portland public will witness in 'Ben Hur the big gest indoor entertainment ever staged. Four years have elapsed since It was orig inally produced In New York City. "Klaw & Erlanger could have sent the pece here sooner, only they would never countenance organizing a second com pany for Its interpretation. "With only one or two slight changes In the cast, the company Is the same that has been pre senting the play since Its original produc tion. This will contribute largely to In cite keener interest In the spectacle. For the engagement in this city special ex cursions are to be run from the surround ing towns. All the railroads are to make reduced rates and the local management will give Special attention to all out-of-town mall orders for scats, filling same after the regular sale opens." AEEESTED AFTER LONG CHASE Suspect Is Alleged to Have Robbed Railroad of Thousands. NEW YORK, Nov. 7. Canadian detec tives, after a long chase, have arrested Frank Frappler in Brooklyn on a war rant charging him with "the theft of $40 from the Canadian Pacific Railroad. The detectives say that this charge is techni cal and allege that the prisoner robbed the company of many thousands of dollars by means of "dummy" payrolls and a check system which he devised for pay ing employes at distant points on the line while he was employed as a section fore man. Frappler said he would fight extradi tion. He was traced by the detectives through his wife, who led the men a chase all over the New England states. Finally by a most circuitous route she entered a boarding-house in Brooklyn. At thevdoor the husband met her. A few minutes later he was under arrest. Besides being In the employ of the Canadian Pacific, Frappler owned a large hotel In Montreal, and was considered to be quite wealthy. He was arrested three months ago but fled. When his wife sold the hotel and prepared to leave she was followed. The detectives say they had great difficulty In keeping trace of her movements, but were only a few minutes behind at tho end, after a chase of hundreds of miles and leading through a dozen large cities. Feud Results in Murder. OGDEN, Utah, Nov. 7. John Coffin, aged 25, was stabbed and Instantly killed last night at Huntsvllle, 15 miles east of this city, by Chris Peterson, a young man of the same age. Two weeks ago Coffin was arrested on a charge of embezzlement by Sylvester Crow, father-in-law of Peter son. At the trial Coffin was discharged, as the accusation -was found to be base less. There has been Ill-feeling since, ending in a quarrel and fight last night, during which Peterson seized a knife and stabbed Coffin. Peterson was arrested and brought to the county Jail at Ogden this morning. Found Guilty orManslaughter. LARAMIE, Wyo., Nov. 7. Frank Keefe, the Rawlins merchant who shot and killed Policeman John Baxter and Lieu tenant Thomas King, several months ago, has been found guilty of manslaughter. His attorney filed a motion for a new trial and was allowed ten days in which to prepare the brief. :0IDS SHERIFF AT FAULT. Army Officer Reports on the Recent Trouble In Wyoming. WASHINGTON, Nov. Y. In response to the request of the department for a re port regarding the recent Indian troubles in Wyoming, General Kobbe, command ing the Department of Dakota, today for warded a dispatch from Major B. H. Cheever, Sixth Cavalry, at Pine Ridge, In which he says the trouble was mostly the Sheriff's fault, and that the Indian pris oners at Newcastle should be released. He said It is believed that the Sheriff's party fired the first shot, but statements are conflicting. The War Department Estates tho situation does not require the serv-" ice of troops. Indian Agent Brennan telegraphed to day that the preliminary . hearing of the arrested Indians has been set for Novem ber 3 at Douglas, Wyo. Brennan has been directed to attend with an Interpreter. The order directing tho agents' attend ance Is at tho request of the United States District Attorney for Wyoming, who says he also will be present. Mr. Brennan reports that evervthlnK Is oulet I at the s Pine Ridge Agency, and nearly au ine cmeis ana neaa men of the In dians there are satisfied to let the law take its course. Major Reeves reports that 10 bucks a"re held in arrest at Newcastle, and the rest of tho party are en route to the reservation. Twenty-one bucks and their families were given passes about October 2, for 20 days. Fair Trial Assured. CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 7. Governor Chatterton leaves Monday for Douglas, where he will personally investigate the condition of the Indians under arrest on the charge of killing Sheriff Miller.

Lyden, of New Tork, who 'al leges he is a creditor to the extent of $10,000, a receiver was this afternoon ap pointed for the Carpenter Steel Company, whose works employ 00 men. The com pany was organized under the laws of New Jersey, with a capital of 53,500,000. TEEES TO DISBAB, ATTORNEY. Peter Power, of Merger Fame, Moves Against Lawyer Lamb. NEW YORK, Nov. 7. A petition ha3 been laid before the Appellate Division pf the. Supreme Court by the Bar Associa tion, accusing Attorney George Alfred Lamb, of this city, who represented Peter Power in the suit to prevent the merger of tho Great Northern and Northern Pa cific Railroads, of fraud, deceit, malprac tice and gross unprofessional conduct. Proceedings were begun to disbar him. The Northern Pacific Railroad brought the charges originally before the Bar As- ' soclatlon last January. The accusations against Lamb are that ho had used Peter Power as a dummy j plaintiff In the Northern Securities case; i that he tried to prevent Power from obeying an order of the United States Court, and that he declared under oath that he had held In his own possession 100 shares of stock which Power claimed to own, but which really belonged to Camilla Weldenfeld, a stock broker, who hasbeen suspended from the Exchange in connec- tion with the suit. When the charges were originally made Lamb refused to answer them, denying that he was guilty of any wrong, and say- ! lng that it tho dignity of the Federal Court had been offended as charged, that i court aione couiu iuko uuiciui uouce or. hg matter.

New York Justice Says Children Are Not Given Spending Money. NEW YORK, Nov. 7. In a statement covering the first year's work here of the new court for Juvenile offenders Jus tice Julius M. Mayer, of the Court of Spe cial Sessions, asserts that, the failure of parents to supply their children with spending money Is one of the principal causes of crime among the boys and girls of New York City. Lack of knowledge of the first principles of practical civics, he said, is another reason found for inno cent offenses of mischievous children. "In many cases," the Justice declares, "the parents are respectable, hard-working people. The children have good school records, but the difficulty Is they have no money to spend so that their desire to have what other children have candy and tho like cannot be gratified. , It may seem a little thing, but I firmly believe 10000000000000000 0 0 In our issue of October 30, we made mention of a mw kind of Drag Saw Machine being seems to have found a good many interested, judging from the number of letters that have have had our artist photograph the machine and reproduce same, in the above half-tone-cut. AETIOLE MACHINE INVENTED TO CUT CORDWOOD. A gasoline engine and apparatus for operaUng a drag saw or cross-cut saw, to be used In cutting trees Into cordvidod length, has been Invented by the proprietor of a machine works In this city, which may have the effect of reducing the price of wood slightly. There have been machines of this kind invented before, but none of them have proved a success. The new Invention Is mounted on a sort of sled and works like a charm. It cuts a 39-Inch log In two In less than three minutes, and cuts a chunk off a seven-foot log In less than an hour, which would take two men with a saw two or three hours to accomplish. The machine moves Itself from cut to cut by its own power in 15 seconds. The trial tests of the machine were so successful that orders are pour ing In for them and men are struggling to see who shall be supplied first. When there arc enough of the machines in operation to cut up trees enough 'to supply tho Portland market witii wood, it,ls to be hoped the cost of wood may be lessened. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00 , t The Store Noted for Good Goods at Lowest Prices i . e o a s r .' vJ - Are not the product of the smooth ad writer-they J ; .""

Landreth & Sons, seed merchants. The liabilities are about vioO.COO, and the assets much less. The house is one of the oldest In the country, having been founded in 1734 by 99 9 00 ( COST OF WOOD I ADDITIONAL The object of the machine Is to saw logs into 4-foot or other lengths for cord and firewood. The motive power Is a 3-horsepower Stover gasoline engine. It Is mounted on a platform built like a sled; on one end Is a drum; a steel wire cable is fastened to this drum, one end of the cable Is carried out ahead of the machine and attached to a stunjp or tree; the other end is carried back under tho sled and attached In like manner. By means of the drum, connected to the gasoline engine with reverse gear, machine can bo moved forward or backward along the log at will. The drum and cable also serve to move the machine from one log to another. The saw has a rocking motion, which makes It clear the cut of sawdust on both the push and pull stroke. Roller fenders hold the machine at proper distance from the log, and dogs fasten It securely while making a cut. The capacity Is said to be about 50 cords of 4-foot wood per day. Taken altogether, It Is a very complete machine, and no doubt do all that is expected of it. The first machine put out cut through a log 39 Inches in diameter in two minutes and 58 seconds, and in 14 seconds more had moved to the next cut and begun sawing. It also cut a 6-foot log In two In 12 minutes. This was a very pitchy , log and a good clean log, free from pitch, could undoubtedly be cut In half the time. The machine above shown is much improved over the first, and should even make a better record. It was shipped yesterday to Barlow, Oregon, where it will be put to work sawing 2-foot wood for the S. P. R. R. Co.'s locomotives. The inventors and manufacturers of this machine are Mitchell, Lewis & Staver Co , First and Taylor streets, this city, and they say they already have a great many orders for machines. e a 9 9 o m 0 9 9 e SALE e e ' e 9 0 0 O : 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ' 0 0 0 t t- ' 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 McDonnell Third and Morrison David Landreth, who came from England.
