THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND, SEPTEMBER 7. 1907. 11 AMERICA IS Totally Destroyed by Fire at St. Helens. CREW HAS NARROW ESCAPE Craft Has Been on the Willamette Slough Hun for Nearly Ten Years. Vessel Was Insured for One Thiril of Her Actual Cost. While lying at the dock at St. Helens, the steamer America was burned to the water's edge yesterday morning, about daybreak. The cause of the fire !b unknown. The flames were first discovered In the after hold and there Is said to have been no freight in that part of the boat, and in fact notlfing combustible except a few empty boxes. When the fife was discovered by Watchman Piatt it had gained such headway that It was with difficulty the men on the boat were able to save some of their belongings and make their escape. An effort was made to extinguish the fire, but it was fruit less, and the little craft was soon de stroyed, with the possible exception of her engines. The America belonged to Captain James Good, and was one of the United States LlTie. the other boats of the line being the Multnomah, running to the new P. & S. bridge; the Republic, laid up, and the Columbia, not yet finished. At the office of the company, at the foot of Washington street, it was stated yesterday that in all probability the Columbia would be rushed to completion and would be put on the run to St. Helens, though Captain Good had no announcement to make of a positive nature. The boat was built in Portland by Captain Good about 10 years ago, and lias been on the WillamcSe run ever since.. She was 94 feet long, 20 feet beam, and had a depth of hold of 6 fret 2 inches. The boat cost $12,000 and was Insured for $1000. CAPTAIN SNOW EXONERATED Inspectors Say He Was Not Respons ible for Alliance Collision. After considering the evidence pre- rnted against Captain W. C. Snow. Hot of the City of Panama, that mmed the Alliance at the mouth of Willamette, August 8, United States speotors E. S. Edwards and George Fuller have reached a decision ex erating the pilot of all blame for ue collision. The finding was sent to Captain Snow and was made public yesterday. The owners of the Alliance have libeled the Panama in the sum of $25,000, and the agent was not prepared to say last night just what the next move would be. An appeal Is open' to the district inspector at San Fran cisco in case the decision of the local officers is unsatisfactory, but as the hearing here did not enter into the responsibility of the City of Panama's owners nor directly as to the part the dredge liad In causing the accident, It is said that uo further proceedings' will he had until the suit for damages comes up In the civil courts. HATE IS QUOTED ABOVE 30S Bark Brizeuux Taken by Portland Mill Over "L'nion" Figure. Late yesterday afternoon there was a report in shipping circles that the French bark Brlzeau, 1963 tons, had been fixed. The bark Is one of the colliers from New South Wales and was taken by the Portland Flour Mill, according to an unconfirmed report. The rate caused considerable comment, as it is said to be 30s by those best in formed, and 31s Sd by others. The opinion expressed by an official of the mill last night was that, while he was 8TKAMF.lt INTELLIGENCE. Dae to Arrive. . Name. From Pate.

SHOOTING FRAY OVER HOPS Dispute Leads to Angry Words, When Shotgun Is Vsed. VANCOUVER, Wash., Sept. 7. As the result of a quarrel o.yer the pay for the picking of a few pounds of hops, John Frash, a farmer who resides near Sara, lies at St. Joseph's Hospital seriously wounded, while a Mr. Finney, a neigh bor, occupies a cell In the County Jail and may be compelled to face a serious charge. The trouble started in the John Hoff hop yard, near Sara, where Finney has been acting lately as the timekeeper. Among the other pickers Is a young son of Frash, and yesterday morning this boy accused Finney of having made a mistake in the weighing of hops picked by him. Shortly after quitting time, last evening the elder Frash went to the home of Finney and demanded that the error claimed should be corrected. A few hot words followed and finally Finney or dered Frash to leave his place. At the same time, it is said by those who took part In the affray, Frash drew a pistol. When Finney saw the pistol, he stepped back inside his door and secured his gun, which is a 12-gauge Winchester pump shot gun. and at the time was -loaded with cartridges, carrying heavy charges of B B shot. Apparently, as Finney emerged from the house, Frash must have turned to leave the place, and as he did so Finney discharged his gun direct ly at him. As near as can be ascertained at the time the shot was fired, the two men were not more than 40 feet apart. The charge struck Frash In the back just below the left hip, apparently something more than 30 shot entering the body. Almost Immediately after the shooting word was telephoned to Sheriff Sapping ton. Frash was brought to this city and placed In the hospital. Finney was placed under arrest by the Sheriff and brought to the County Jail, where he is being held pending the result of the wounds Inflicted before charges are preferred against him. CURES WITHOUT MEDICINE All Diseases Are Caused by Displace ment of the Vertebrae. The science of Chiropractic is one of the youngest schools of healing in the United States, the science being de veloped just 12 years ago. This school teaches that all disease is caused by displaced vertebrae. They discover this displacement by touch along the back bone In which there are 24 movable ver tebrae. The displaced vertebrae press upon the nerves and cause fevers and diseases of all kinds. When the error 13 corrected the condition of the patient rapidly improves. Tills sc.ence is ef fective in all ailments to which man is heir, and such dread disease as typhoid fever yields rapidly to this treatment. Dr. L. M. Gordon, 36-37 Raleigh building. Sixth and Washington streets. Is a rec ognized expert in this school, and will be pleased to giVe any further informa tion you may desire. Consultation and examination are free. - GOVERNMENT INSPECTION Magnificent Booth of the Union Meat Co., Where Canned Meats, Colum bia Brand Ham, Bacon and Lard, That Have Passed V. S. Govern ment Inspection Are on Exhibit. Beautiful Souvenirs Given Away. The' very nature of this booth makes it instantly attractive to every visitor at the Pure Food Show. Meats that carry Uncle Sam's guaranty of soundness have become an object of attention of every, thinking ' person. While naturally It would not be prac tical to exhibit fresh meats, the canned goods and the Columbia brand hams, bacon and lard, appear in ex tremely appetizing array. The booth itself, done in Colonial style, in pure white with touches of yellow. Is one of the largest and handsomest in the hall. The electric lighting Is extremely ef fective, and altogether, greeting the eye on first entering the hall, it draws attention 'from first to last. - POTTER SCHEDULE , For Remainder of Season. , Steamer Potter will sail from Ash etreet dock, Tuesday, September 10, 8 A.
