TROUBLE OVER SAILORS

News of tlie Waterfront.
ThA German bark Nereus cleared yes
terday for ViuonnFtown or Falmouth
for orders with 104,370 bushels of
wheat, valued at $33,500. "When the
vessrj will leave down for Astoria is
a question, owing to dierenres between
the master of the vessel, the German
Consul and the sailor boardinghouse.
The Nereus is in need of two men and
the master refuses to pay the board
Jnjr, master for them.
Oregon statutes provide for the li
censing; of sailor boardinghouses and
for the appointment of a commission
to superintend the affairs of such
oardlngliouse8. Hailor board in ghouae
masters are permitted to exact from
hip masters one month's advance and
$10 for each sailor supplied. During;
the past Winter It has been the prac
tice of the German and Norwegian
Consults to ship men independent of
the bosrdinjrhouse. The Nereus was
supplied with noveral sailors In this
manner, but a full crew could not be
obtained. An attempt was made to
secure the desired men from the board
jnsrhouse, but without avail. The
tioardtn? master was under contract
to tnipply other ships and there was
not enough men in the bouse to meet
the demand.
Portland at present is in.better shape
regarding the sailor situation than
ny other city on the Coast. P'or two
years there has not been a delay of
any sort due to the boardinghouse.
There has been no hold-ups of either
jiin.ster or owner.
' The departure of the Nereus will
bring the export for March up to
1.421.987 bushels of wheat and 52,016
barrels o& flour. One or more additional
vessels will clear before the month end
The wheat shipments for March of last
year were only & trifle over 500,000
bushels.
F. P. BACMGARTNER RETURN'S
frays There Is Considerable Freight
to Move From Southern Ports.
y. P. Baumgartner, agent for the Cal
ifornia & Oregon Coast Steamship Com
pany, thus returned from a visit to San
Francisco and ls Angeles. Mr. Baum
gartner went South on a combined busi
ness and pleasure trip.
"The steamship situation was serious
when I left San Francisco," said Mr.
Baumgartner yesterday, "But the day
following my departure from that city
the difficulties between the Owners' As
' soclation and the engineers was settled.
I am positive that there will be a heavy
movement of freight as soon as the boats
-an be placed in commission. The Nome
City is ready -to leave for Portland and
he has 600 tons on board. Other steam
schooners -have, full cargoes In sight
and at Portland there is a quantity of
freight which has been held up awaiting
the settlement of the strike."
Mrs. Baumgartner, who has been In
3,03 Angeles for the past two ' months,
returned to Portland with Mr. Baumgartner.
Capital City Carries Wheat.
The steamer Capital City has been
placed on the run between Portland and
Vancouver. Wash. The boat will carry
wheat, which will -be brought to the
"Washington town on the North Bank
road. The Bailey Gatzert made a trip
Thursday and brought around several
thousand sacks. About 20,000 sacks are
awaiting transfer to Portland. The Cap

Two Norwegians AH but Con
quer Mount Kabru in the
Himalayas.
FORTNIGHT ABOVE CLOUDS
C. IV. Jtubcnson and Mr. Mojirad
Aas Nearly Equal 'World's Rec
ord Established by W. W.
Grabam in 1883.
LONDON, March 21. There are at
present staying in Ijondon two young
Norwegians, C. W. Rubenson and Mr.
Monrad-Aas, who are leisurely return
ing home from India, where they have
achieved one of the highest climbs on
record in tho Himalayas, having
reached a height estimated at 23,900
feet on one of the peaks of Mount
Kabru, a little to the south of the giant
Kangchenjunga.
As fixed by the trigometrical survey
of India, Kabru rises to a greatest
height of 24.015 feet, and was ascended
to within 30 or 40 feet of Its summit
In 1883 by W. W. Graham. A few
mountaineers like Sir Martin Conway
have questioned whether Mr. Graham
was not mistaken In the identity of
the peak which he thought to be Mount
Kabru.
In any case, no higher claim has re
ceived recognition In the mountaineer
ing world, but Mr. Rubenson and Mr.
Monrad-Aas, however, have come very
near to excelling Graham's record.
Not Seeking a Record.
It is only just to the young Nor
wegians to say that they advance no
claim to have established a new record,
and that It was not with any Intention
of record-breaking that they went out
to India. -Their tour was undertaken
purely for the purpose of travel and
pleasure, and they were 'attracted to
the Himalayas by the desire to see at
close quarters something of the gran
deur of the loftiest range of mountains
In the world. Though both have
climbed much in Norway, they make no
pretension to be regarded as expert
mountaineers.
Going out of India at the end of 1906,
they found that they had chosen the.
wrong season for climbing, and though
In February of last year they reached
the top of Mount Kabru, 15,830 feet,
some distance to the southeast of
Kabru, it was found Impracticable to
advance among the higher peaks. Later
In the year, however, after visiting the
Straits Settlements and the Dutch East
Indies. Mr. Rubenson and Mr. Monrad
Aas returned to Northern India and
again sought to penetrate the Hima
layas from Darjlling.
Have Coolies for Guides.
A base camp -was established at
Jongrl, over 13,000 feet high, and the
travelers then set their faces toward
Mount "Kabru, attended by 14 picked
coolies. These were men of Tibetan
descent, living on the borders of Nepal.
They were paid especially high wages
and received special rations.
Sports were organized for their
amusement at the different camps, and
everything was done to put them on
good I terms with their employers, with
the result that Mr. Rubenson and Mr.
Monrad-Aas speak in enthusiastic
terms of the service they received from
their followers, and consider the em
ployment of Alpine guides specially
brought out from Europe a quite un
necessary proceeding In Himalaya ex
peditions. '
They themselves adopted no such
course, partly because they had no in
tention of undertaking any unusual
feat and partly because they had - no
desire to achieve ascents for which the
main credit would really be due to
others.
Camping at 23,000 Feet.
The route led up the Rathong glacier,
from which the travelers turned aside
Just below the point where It Is Joined
by the Kabru glacier. Camps were es
tablished at elevations of 19,500 feet,
21,500 feet, 22,000 feet and nnally, 22,600
feet. On the excursion from the highest
camp but one, the aneroid reading gave
an elevation of 22700 feet.
Above this height the records were
not reliable, and elevations were esti
mated by comparison with the known
height of Kabru, as fixed by the trigo
nometrical Burvey.
Two nights were spent at the highest
camp, probably the loftiest point at
which tents have ever been pitched.
The final climb was made during the
Intervening day. For about a hundred
feet Mr. Rubenson and Mr. Monrad-Aas
were accompanied by one of the
coolies; then they continued the ascent
alone.
The measured peak of Kabru Is con
nected by a long saddle with another
peak to the northeast, almost of the
same elevation, ana certainly, the trav
elers are convinced, not more than a
hundred feet lower. It was this peak
which Mr. Rubenson and Mr. Monrad
Aas found themselves in the best posi
tion to climb.
For the greater part of the distance
their line of ascent was sheltered from
the wind, but when within fifty or
sixty feet of the top tne wind burst
upon them with a fury against which
It was almost impossible to make head
way, and. as night was drawing on and
they had no ambition to reach the
summit merely because It was the sum
mit, they returned to camp. As al
ready stated, they estimate that at
their highest point they stood at an
elevation of 23,900 feet.
Narrow Escapes From Ieath.
The descent was not accomplished
without some exciting experiences.
Once some huge blocks of Ice crashed
down from the mountain side onto the
very spot where only five minutes
earlier the tents had been standing.
On another occasion, when Mr. Ruben
son and Mr. Monrad-Aas were roped
together, the former missed his foot
ing, and. though the rope held, four
out of the five strands gave vay under
the strain.
Both Norwegians made light of their
performance, which was. however, at
tended by considerable hardships. The
agent intrusted with the provisioning
of the expedition was unable to send
along the supplies required by the
Europeans, and for. three weeks they
had to live mainly on tinned meats.
Intense cold was experienced, the
temperature at the high camps falling
as low as 20 degrees below zero (Fah
renheit). Fortnight Above 19,500 Feet.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
of the -expedition Is that the travelers
remained for fully a fortnight at alti
tudes of 19.500 feet and over without
experiencing any serious inconvenience
beyond the check naturally Imposed by
the rarined atmosphere on violent ex-

Will be 80 miles long -when completed. Over 34 miles are now in operation. The
road penetrates a country hitherto without ' transportation facilities. It is rich,
fertile and productive. The route along the shore is the most picturesque in the
world, hence unusually attractive to the tourist. This traffic and the enormous
tonnage of freight is certain to earn big money for the company. San, Francisco
is wild with enthusiasm over the project, and already freely patronizes the com
pleted part of the line. ' The right of way constitutes a monopoly along the Cali
fornia shore, and assures a" permanent and large income as long as men travel
and freight is shipped. . ' .
This is a $5,000,000 company. Its stock is fully paid. The owners have already
invested over $3,000,000 of their own money in the road. All told, the franchises,
rights of way, roadbed completed, rails laid and rolling stock bought represent a
cash outlay of over $4,500,000. This includes real estate in San Francisco and
Santa Cruz, conservatively valued at $2,000,000. The "terminal facilities in San
Francisco are in the heart of the city, and are so convenient that there is consid
erable talk about transforming it into a union depot for all roads ' entering San
Francisco. No railroad line in the United States has so much to. show for the
money invested, or more valuable assets for the capitalization than the Ocean
Shore Railway Company. 4 . -
The several coast towns along the right of way of this line are already making
great plans for the reception of the new line. Over 20,000 . lots have been sold
between San Francisco and Half Moon Bay. Manufacturing plants are being
enlarged; farmers are planning for larger crops; hotels are being enlarged and
improved; beach resorts are building where they never existed before; mineral re
sources are being exploited; the oil fields and deposits of bitumen are being worked
to produce greater yields, and the people of the shore country look forward to
greater things than ever before. All of this phenomenal activity forecasts freight
shipments that will yield the company earnings that will astound the most
conservative. ...
The best calculations of the most experienced traffic men of the United States
tmite in stating that the earnings of the Ocean Shore Railway Company, from the
first year of its operation, will approximate ONE MILLION DOLLARS. Traffic
experts are amazed at the possible future, profits to be derived from the operation
of the road. The tremendous demand for building material in San Francisco,
coupled with the unlimited supply found in the legitimate territory of the Ocean
Shore, promises wonderful things for this company. All of this points to the cor
responding splendid profits to be derived from the $5,000,000 bond issue. Such
earning capacity, such security, indicates that the bonds will easily be worth from
10 per cent to 20 per cent above par within a reasonably short time.
To accomplish all this, a corps of officers has been selected that guarantees in
tegrity, profit and security. People in Portland know many of these gentlemen,
and know them to be the leading men of San Francisco. The officers are as follows:
J. DOWNEY HARVEY, President -r Director of First National Bank and First Federal Trust Co.
J. A. FOLGEE, Vice-President; President J. A. Folger & Co., San Francisco, tea and coffee im
porters. CHARLES C. MOORE, Director; President C. C. Moore & Co., Mechanical engineers.
HORACE D. PILLSBURY, Director, Second Vice-President ; Attorney for the Santa Fe Railroad.
PETER D. MARTIN, Director; Vice-President Eastern Oregon Land Company.
BURKE CORBET, Secretary and Treasurer; one of San Francisco's leading Attorneys.
Of the gold bond issue of $5,000,000, a few have been allotted to Portland for sale.
If you cannot afford to buy these bonds and pay $92 each for them in cash, per
haps you would be willing to take from one to five at $96 each, paying $16 down
and. $10 per month. Many people take one bond a month, adding a new one
whenever the old one is paid for. To fully .satisfy yourself of the substantiability
of this proposition, call or write for free booklets and information. .

CAST OF AB1G METEOR
V. Hampton Smith Theorizes on
Metal Visitor From th Stars.
March 23. (To the Editor.)
I noticed a new report In lst Wednes
days' Oregonlan stating that the University
of Oregon had received a plaster cast of a
meteor which tell near Oregon City, Or.,
in 11X3.
The statement that "the meteor f-ll near
Oregon City in 1905 is an error. The me
teor has evidently been on the earth many
thousands of years. It did not fall where
found. It la a glacial drift, carried to the
location by floating ice, and there dropped
with drift not at all belonging to thia re
gion of the country. It belongs to granite
and other ancient rocka, igneous and strati
fied. Its bedding was of fragmentary an
gular basalt, intermixed with glacial locos.
The meteor lay bottom side up when found
with a part of the flange edge protruding
from the debris. "Where or when it fell
is not known as to time, but certainly prior
to our last glacial period. It may have
and probabljr did fall In Alaska. It was
in a pliable state, caused, by heat in passing
through the air, and it b truck the earth at
about an angle of 75 degrees horizontally.
The region of contact with the earth was
covered with a thick deposit of silt, per
haps many feet thick, and it rested on a
foundation of holders which In turn reposed
on a smooth bedrock. What has been writ
ten by experts In explanation of Its peculiar
form is erroneous. The meteor weighs
something over 15 tons, and. is practically
0 per cent iron.
Science owes a debt of gratitude to the
discoverer, Mr. Hughes. He erred In think
ing that the meteor was his by right of
discovery, and laboriously took It from the
ground on which It was found to his own
home. Had he not accidentally discovered
It. however, it might have never been
known, because, being the largest stone in
appearance in sight, it would have been
made the nucleus of a permanent heap of
stone. I am informed that he has never
been rewarded for his discovery and all
the work he put upon it. From my point
of view this is wrong. It is perhaps the
most interesting sample of metal that ever
came to earth from the starry depths that
has been recovered except it be the golden
meteorites found in Australia. It should
have been" kept here.

CONTINUE WORK IN VALLEY
Irrigation Experiments by the Gov
ernment Are Successful.
OREOONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 28. The agricultural ap
propriation bill reported to the House
on March 11 contains an item of JloO.O'lO
for irrigation and drainage investiga
tions, to be carried on by the office of
experiment stations, under Dr. A. C.
True, director of that office. This is a
continuation of the present appropriation
for similar work. During the past year
a large part , of this appropriation has
been spent in Oregon, the work carried
on being in the Willamette Valley, un
der the direction of A, P. Stover, whose
headquarters have been in Portland.
Mr. Stover has been carrying on ex
periments to determine the feasibility of
irrigation in the Willamette Valley to
protect crops against the Summer
drouth. These experiments have been
conducted in co-operation with the State
Experiment Station at- Corvallis and at
Philomath. Albany and Hillsboro. Re
ports of this work have not yet been
published, but largely Increased yields
have been secured by irrigation at all of
the points where experiments have been
made.
At Albany tile drains have been put In
on a large tract of white lands, in the
hope that thorough drainage, combined
with irrigation, will make it possible to
raise alfalfa and other crops on these
lands, which have been considered al
most worthless. ' The appropriation car
ried by this bill will make it possible to
continue during the coming season, the
experiments begun last year.
Mr: Stover, who has been spending the
Winter In Washington, left for Oregon
March 12 to begin .the work of the season.
