THIS SUNDAY UKEGONIAN, POKTLAND, tfOVEMBETJ l&V 3.90. FIRE IN BUNKERS Exciting Time on China Liner - Nicomedia. DISCOVERED ON WAY UP RIVER Blaze Extinguished Without Damage to Ship Eventful Passage Across the Pacific Terrible Storm Off Coast. raenflation made that she be abandoned to the underwriters, as a small amount of insurance -had been carried. The board consisted of Captains Olsen and Kelson and George Foster, marine Insurance agent. The Challenger still sits on the ooiiom 01 xne river, xne nuu is com pletely covered at high tide and her .deck partly exposed at low -water. It is likely that all the rigging and fixtures, anchors; chains, -etc, will be taken off and the bull blown up, as It will be impossible to float it again. The steam schooner Signal arrived here tills morning from San Francisco with steel rails, engine and fixtures for the logging road of the Simpson Lumber Company. The steamer will take a re turn cargo of lumber from the Simpson mUl. , The schooner Excelsior arrived today from San Francisco with mill fixtures for the Slier .Company and will load lum ber at that mill. ' Spontaneous combustion In the bunkers of the Portland & Asiatic liner Nicome dia save the officers and. men of the steamer a lively experience while on. the way up the river Friday night. "When the Nicomedia made fast to Alaska dock at 8:30 yesterday morning the fire was still smouldering. Last night It was be lieved to be entirely quenched, but should it break out at any time before the coal can be moved it would not cause sur Ti rise to the officers of the vessel: The Nicomedia left up from Astoria, at B o'clock Friday afternoon, having just completed a voyage from the Orient. Two hours later, the chief engineer thought he detected signs of fire in tne port oun ker. Investigating by opening the bunker hatch, he was met by a column of flame that leaped as high as the top of the funnel. The alarm was at once given and officers and crew were on deck In a few seconds. It required but a brie? space of time to get the" fire apparatus In oper ation, and steady and powerful streams of water were poured on the blazing mass of coal. Not till fully 50 tons of water had flooded the compartment did the men re lax their efforts. Then, when all immedl ate danger was past, the officers returned to their evening meal, which they had hastily left, and the crew resumed its usual labors. The ship came to anchor for the night off Morgan's landing, Just below the mouth of the "Willamette, but a close watch was kept on the bunker where the trouble occurred. There is no doubt that the Are started from spontaneous combustion. The bunk ers had been kept tightly closed, and as they adjoined the boilers and stokeroom, the coal had a good chance to become heated on the long trip across the ocean. It is a mishap such as Is apt to occur on any steam vessel, but the Hamburg American craft have such strict regula tions and good order that the emergency was promptly met. The net loss from the Are amounts to only a few dollars, as but Ave or six tons of coal were burned The bunkers in which the blaze started held about 200 tons. Captain "Wagner and his men did not have their only excitement in the river. Last Monday, when 600 miles off the coast. they ran into the storm, the effect of which was felt over a good part of the Pacific .Northwest. The only difference was that while but the edge of the dis turbance touched these parts, the Nlco media was forced to plow through the center of It. The stanchness of the ves pel and the seamanship of her master brought her through It safely, but not without damage. The Injury fortunately was not to the men aboard the ship. The worst of the storm was encountered on Tuesday. It was impossible to make any headway against the gale and the ship lay to, rolling and pitching In the mountainous seas. Much of the time the high decks were under water and one huge wave even drenched the officers on the bridge. Two large ventilators on the forecastle deck were smashed Aat and everything moveable that was exposed was sent adrift. Spars lashed on the forward deck were splintered, a hatch was broken, cabin doors knocked in and state rooms and cabtns saturated. The chief engineer's room at one time was almost Ailed with water, and the windows high up in the wheelhouso were broken. Life lines were the means of more than one man remaining on board the ship. A pen lashed to the deck, containing several pigs, was broken by a great wave drop ping upon It The pigs proved good swim mers and paddled about until the Chinese sailors, to whom they belonged, waded along the deck at the risk of their own lives and saved the animals. The storm's fury had not entirely abated when the vessel made the mouth of the Columbia. Third Officer Heldt mourns the loss of 5400 of which he was robbed at Hong Kong under peculiar circumstances. "While on his way from a hotel to the steamer shortly before she sailed, he was beset by a party of Chinese ruffians, who drugged him and after relieving him of his money left him lying helpless In the road, where he was found next morning by the Hong Kong police. A former Chinese messboy of the vessel Is suspected as- the ring leader of, the mob. Notwithstanding the experience of storm and Are, the Nicomedia brought her big cargo Into port In perfect condition, and the work of discharging it began soon after her arrival. The cargo amounts to 7000 tons and contains among other things 4000 tons of matting, 700 tons of tea, 200 tons of tapioca, 300 tons of camphor, 300 tons of curios and 400 tons of miscellane ous merchandise. A number of shipping men who had heard of her adventures went down to look the ship over yester day, but" saw few traces of her encoun ter with the elements, most of the dam age occasioned by the storm having been repaired. The Chinese coal passers and stokers spent most of the day In trimming the ncatea coat in the bunkers. TWO SHIPS CHARTERED. Ruthwell Will Take Flour and Hamp tn Lumber. - The "British bark Ruthwell and the Brit ish ship Hampton were chartered yester day, the' former for flour and the latter for lumber loading. - -The Ruthwell was taken by Balfour, .Guthrie & Co. at 21s 3d. and will carry her cargo to the Cape. As rates to South Africa are not much below, those to the United Kingdom, as a rule, this fixture shows a general weakening In the freight market. The Ruthwell's owners belong to the combine and have been steadily hold ing out for association figures In offering the ship for European business. It Is un derstood that the combine's -fixed schedule does not apply to cargoes to Africa. The Ruthwell has been here since September 17, when she arrived with coal from New castle. The Hampton was taken by W. R. Grace & Co. and will load lumber at the North Pacific mill for the "West Coast She ar rived October 29 with a general cargo from Antwerp. The chartering of these" vessels reduces the free list In port to nine ships "with ai aggregate tonnage of 19,178. Sixteen vessels, of 31.703 tons net "register, all told, are in port On Puget Sound there are 11 grain ships of 24,606 tons, of which 14",660 are without engagement "The fleet in San Francisco harbor numbers 54 ves sels, 14 of which, aggregating 76,756 tons, arc idle. NOME MAN CAUGHT Griggs, Alleged Swindler, Ar rested in Portland. Derelict Seen Off Seaside. ASTORIA. Or., Nov. 12. A derelict was seen about a mile oft Seaside drifting with the tide yesterday afternoon. It ap peared to be about 150 feet long, and was believed to be a derelict three-maeted schooner with a part of the feremaat still standing. It looked so weather beaten that It had evidently been In the water a long time. It was growing dark at the time, and as the sun set it waa drifting to the northward. Several who watched it think they saw a small boat near by with several men in It, but this la likely to have been an error. Several coasters were In the vicinity at the time but none of them sighted the derelict .Large Steamer to Replace Mainlander SEATTLE, Nov. 12. The Pacific Coast Company will either purchase of build a $200,000 steamer for the Seattle-Belllngham route to replace the lest steamer Main lander, which was sunk recently In a collision with the tug Sea Lion.

The policy of the company will be to place a steamer on the run large enough for fu ture traffic Fishing Steamer Launched. TACOMA, "Wash., Nov. 12.

Cody, United Slates Marshal from Nome, accompanied by Mrs. Cody, 1b in the city, having made the long trip in search of two men known as Duncan and Griggs, two of the clever est swindlers that have been before the pubic for some time. It is reported that Mr. Cody has been able to capture Griggs, -who Is now out on $4000 ball waiting- for the opening of travel Into the North, when he will go back to Alaska to face a charge of having secured more than $60,000 under, fase pretenses. Deputy Marshal George A. Leekly told of the arrest In Seattle several days ago, but the matter has been carefully guarded here. Why is not known, but it Is supposed that there has been trouble In securing ex tradition papers.. Until this, delay is overcome no announcement of the ar rest of Griggs will he made. Griggs, so it Is said, vill be allowed to go on bonds until the - season opens In the North, when he will return for trial. His companion, if he is captured, will be jointly Interested with Griggs in the proceedings. The tale as it is told Is a strange one. Two years ago Duncan and Griggs went into the Klondike and into the Koyokuk country, which takes its name from a branch of the Yukon River. In the Spring they came out, raised a lot of money and Aled on a large number of claims, paying more than $500 in filing fees. Lured by Golden Bait. 1 Last Winter the two men came to Portland, where, it Is said, they un loaded a. lot of their property at good Agures. They then returned to Nome and told of their wondrous findings at a place which they designated as Midas Creek. They had on hand a quantity of gold which was said to have come from that district out of the claims staked out by them. It was reported that there were thousands of good claims on the creek, outside of those already taken by the two partners, and on the strength of their assertions many claims were sold and much money was advanced by those who were go ing Into the country under the guid ance of the two promoters. The two4tnen made representations to the United States District Court and had the Midas Creek District formed by it P. T. Merrltt clerk of the court at St Michaels, resigned his position as clerk and United States Commissioner and was made deputy of the district About this time Duncan" and Griggs chartered the gasoline launch Louise. and disappeared, arriving later at St Michael, from which place they dls appeared entirely. In September, after a caravan headed by F. T. Merrltt had made an ineffect ual effort to And Midas Creek and its golden sands, the two men were In dicted by the United States Court for having obtained money under false pre tenses. It is estimated that they cleaned, up more than $60,000 by selling lands which they did not possess, and by collecting- large sums from men who wished to join the stampede Into the Midas Creek region, where the gold was supposed to be so common that only the nuggets were shoveled Into a sack. Duncan has vanished and the officers have no trace of him. so it Is said, but Griggs has been cornered and will have a chance to lead the United States Court to the fabled Midas Creek and make good his pretenses or spend a few years as the guest of tho Government.

How Colds Are Contracted and Troper I Treatment An accute catarrh, that is a cold. Is al I ways the result of undue exposure to low temperatures. Tho rapid cooling of the surface, when not balanced by proper re action, produces congestion and Inflam mation of the nasal and bronchial mem I branes. Obviously such an ailment Is not j communicable, in the ordinary sense, from j one individual to another. As the slightest j "cold" predisposes the individual to at . tacks or the most severe and dangerous catarrhal affections, the necessity for Its I quick cure need not be enforced. These i facts emphasize the necessity for extra , ordinary precautionary measures against the ordinary cold. Everyone cannot change his climate at will, but may make the most of what he has at home, viz., take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon as the first Indication .of the cold . appears. It not only cures a cold quickly but counteracts any tendency -ot the rold . to result in pneumonia. This Tact "has been fully proven during- the epidemics i of colds and grip of the past few years. INo case of either of these diseases having resulted in pneumonia when this remedy . was used has ever, been reported . to the manufacturers, and thousands of bottles of it are sold every day. which shows conclusively that It Is not only the best and quickest cure for -cojds, but a cer tain preventive of that dangerous dis ease, pneumonia.
