THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, MAY 29 1910. 17 f I OPPOSITION LIHETO ATLANTIC-ASSURED Aztec Sails in July for Port of Portland With Initial Consignments. FOUR VESSELS IN FLEET Bates & Chesebroujrli Rehind Venture and Latter Will Keacli This City Tomorrow to Confer With Local Merchants. WUh the steamer Aztec sailing in July as the pioneer of the fleet, Bates & Chesebrough, of San Francisco, wJU Inaugurate a through service to Port land and San Francisco from New York tnd Philadelphia in opposition to the American-Hawaiian Steamship Com pany. A. Chesebrough, a member of the firm, will reach here tomorrow to tirranga for the initial cargo, 3000 tons of which has been listed. It is the expectation of the new line executives to establish a service that will keep four vessels operating, giv ing the port one sailing every 45 days, and the voyage from the Atlantic har bors to the Columbia River, via the Straits of Magellan will occupy CO days. That sufficient business can be (secured to warrant the craft calling only at Portland is the belief of the owners, and they will inaugurate the through service as soon as practical. Aztec Carries 5000 Tons. The Aztec will carry fiOOO tons, and with the amount of local shipments originating on the Atlantic seaboard and territoKj- tributary that will be benefited by the water rate, which Is but 60 per cent of the rail tariff, it is expected she will have a full cargo on her initial voyage. Bates & Chesebrough operate 1 2 steamers between the Bay City and Atlantic harbors, and for some time have enjoyed a lucrative business, but thoy have quietly circulated their de sire to include this port on their itiner ary, and after sufficient space was re nerved to warrant the Aztec being dis patched, they decided to publicly an nounce their purpose. One feature of the service, which forecasts that they propose to enter . into keen competition with the Ameri-can-Hawaiian interests. Is a minimum insurance rate, which. they declare, will provide for cargo being landed here, with slight interest added, at n lower tariff than Is now enjoyed, and that they do not increase their ' rate in keeping with rail advances. Through limiting Advantageous. Besides, It is argued, the fact cargo is loaded on the Atlantic and is not again disturbed until its destination is reached, is another favorable point, as against the system of the opposi tion line in .transshipping at the Bay City. As many frail packages are shipped, including enameled ware in the form of bathtubs and such com modities, the through shipment idea is expected to be one of the strong bids for patronage. Support is expected from the trans portation committee of the Chamber of ComWrce, and it is probable that Mr. Chesebrough will meet with its members preparatory to soliciting from local shippers a share of their busi ness. Portland- dealers have routed large quantities of cargo via the carriers now in service, as there originates .in the East hardware, woodc-nware. wagon materials, spokes, hubs, cordage, nails, tanned goods, machinery, agricultural supplies, structural iron, paper, wire, belting, white lead, paints, bolts, castings and. in fact, SO per cent of the commodities covered by the rail tariffs. While definite dockage arrangements have not been made it is probable that the company will establish its berth at Albers Dock, now used by the American Hawaiian, because it is centrally located In the district to which is consigned heavy machinery and other bulky cargo. BKAIt CARIUES KKCOKD LOAD Cargo Largest Since Congestion of Four Years Ago. Xot since the steamer Aztec was char tered by the. San Francisco & Portland Steamship Company in the Summer of 1!)06, to -move congested freight south has a cargo for the Bay City been cleared such as is piled beneath the hatchea of the steamer Bear, of that line, which palled yesterday morning with a total of 2143 tons. The Aztec's cargo measured 3S00 tons and was dispatched under exceptional conditions, while that of the Bear in dicates a natural ircrease in offerings that is expected to be continued during the season to a large extent. Her mani fest shows it was made up of flour, po tatoes, paper and smaller packages Her passenger list was also increased, as she had 200 reservations' occupied. General Agent Iianeom yesterday said that he ex pected the- Beaver to arrive June 11. AM)EXS ACTION" IS PKAISEI Saving of Deckhand Elicits Official Approval for Captain. Special commendation has been given Captain C. M. Alden, of the steamer Dailes City, by United States Inspectors Edwards and Fuller for having aided his men in the rescue of a member of the crew who fell overboard Wednesday while handling freight. The steamer was under way. but Immediately was put about, small boats lowered and the man picked up in lens than five minutes after he had gone over the side. The Inspectors forwarded Captain Al den the following letter: Your report of May 26 re man overboard nnd his rescue in live minutes from the time whn he went overboard received We tak? great pleasure In commending you and the otTicers and crow of the steamer Dalles City for your prompt action In the matter ..r this rescue, an.l it is apparent that your officers and crew are proficient in boat drills, for which you. as master of tlva steamer, deserve great credit. It Is so seldom that we receive a com munication from a master of his havine rescued a pc-son who has fallen overboard that we write you this special commenda tion. ItEOCIiATIOXS TO HE ENFORCED Customs Department Orders Small Craft Equipment Watched. Customs officials of the Port of Port land are about to inaugurate another campaign against owners and operators of small boats, who have neglected to comply with Government regulations covering the display of lights, use of fog horns, whistles and bella. When, vessels are found not to be properly equipped', a fine of $50 Is Im posed on the master or the officer act ing in his stead, and ?200 additional against .the vessel. Motorboats of 15 tons or less are required to have, be sides a bell, whistle and fog horn, bow and sternand side lights and, if car rying passengers, must have a life pre server for each and employ only a licensed operator to handle the vessel. Sail boats when under way must ex hibit sidelights and' have a white light to show when required. Rowboats must also carry white lights.

TURNING OVER TO JOBBERS California Fruit Packers Have De cided to Send Out a Koree of Salesmen- According to the Latest Keport. With the announcement of the .opening pi-Ices on 1910 pack California fruits comes the story that some of the large packers, following the example set by Maine corn canners and other large producers! have de cided to send out a foroe of salesmen to the retail trade. These salesmen, it is under stood, will work up all the business posijHjie and turn It over to Jobbers in the territory in which they are working, 'thus doing away with services of brokers. The only return for such activity the packers expect aside from the business it will bring for the time being, so the story goes. Is to make their brands so well and favorably known In the, territory covered by their salesmen that both retailers and Jobbers will hereafter car ry them to the exclusion of other brands that are not so well exploited. Work along these lines was started late last season in a small way by means of demonstrators. The prices named on the 19lO pack by the California Fruit Canners' Association show advances over those of last year, as follows: Stand. Ex. Stand. Ex. Ex.3. Apricots . ...jo.or. jo.or. so.tr, .. .

Some Dealers Kind Kncouraeement in the Present Situation. The local grain market yesterday, as usual on Saturday. Was a very quiet affair. There were neither buyers nor sellers In evidence, and the dealers found no occasion to quote prices different from those of the preceding day. In fact prices In all departments v.er entirely nominal. - Aside from the spectacular break in May. the Chicago market was fairly steady. The new crop months opened close to Friday's final figures, and at the close were down He to lUc. At Liverpool May wheat dropped V d. but the later options made gains, the first advances to be recorded In a fortnight. July wheat rising a and October d at the close. The cargo market continued dull and depressed. Another event which some traders re garded as an encouraging sign that the downward course of prices has been checked was the decrease in the movement Of wheat from Russia, though it will require some time to determine whether this falling off is permanent or merely a fluctuation. The shipments for the past week from Russia and Danublan ports were reported by the Merchants Exchange as follows: - This week. Last week. Last vear.

Year ago 10.477 1531 1475 842 20U8 BEER SALES CONTINUE TO INCREASE. Gain in April Over Same Month Last Vear Was Half a Million Harrrls. Beer sales In the month of April showed a larg.3 Increase over the same month last year. The total sales were 5,010,8:5 bar rels, or a gain of 500,706 barrels over the sales of April. 1909. For the first four months of the present year the official Government figures show an Increase of 1,596.921 barrels over the corresponding period of 1909. It Is useless to make any further com ment on the condition of the hop market in this connection, as it has become a standing Joke in the hop. trade that the faster the beer business grows the lower the hop market falls. However. If the brewery trade continues to expand at the same rate throughout the remainder of the season It will mean that the consumption of hops In the United Stat-as this year will be 20,000 bales larger than it was last year. STRAWBERRIES SELL 10 CENTS HIGHER Demand for Other Fruit Is Light Veg etables Clean Cp. Except for the good demand for straw berries, there was not much activity in the fruit market yesterday. Berries sold on the farmers' market about 10 cents higher than on Friday, and shipping stock was unchanged on the street. The neceipta as a whole were large and were entirely cleaned up. , There were fair shipments of loganberries; raspberries and blackberries, all of which were quoted at $1.25 a crate. Several small lots of cantaloupes were received and sold well at $5 to 3 a crate for ponies. Apri cots dragged. Cherries were also slow sale. There was a good clean-up In most lines of vegetables, tomatoes especially being scarce. Peas and beans sold at former prices. Summer squash was harder to move. There was a good demand for new potatoes but old potatoes were not wanted. NO SURPLUS OF BUTTER THESE DAYS. Local Market Is Very Strong, but There Is No Talk of an Early Advance. The local butter market Is in a very strong position, the local and shipping de mand absorbing all the offerings and call ing for more. However, there Is no talk of any advance in prices, as it is not cer tain that the Northern shipping demand will be long maintained. The advance of half a cent a pound on all sizes of cheese Monday morning will be general. The demand for poultry yesterday was sufficient to take up all the receipts at the prices that have prevailed throughout the week. Dressed meats also closed un changed. There was the regular inquiry for eggs, and as receipts were not large, the market held very steady. Bank Clearings. Bank clearings of the Northwestern cities' yesterday were as follows: Clearings.

Weather Is Favorable In All Parts of the Country. CHICAGO. May 28. The lowest prices of the season were made in wheat today. A little group of tallenders gave up the "fight for the May option and sold out in driblets all the way down to 90c, a sheer drop of .6 Vic from last nlsht's figures. Because of poor buying support, new crop futures fin ished He to llilHc down. Corn closed AC to 17c off and oats I to lc. Last quotations for provisions were unchanged to Zic lower. Disinclination to stand out over two days at the new low levels had much to do with the remarkable lack of vitality in the wheat market. Then. too. fine rains all over th Canadian Northwest and the Dakotas. fur ther showers for final filling of the Winter wheat Southwest and a general warming up of temperatures were far from encouraging any symptom of bullishness. An official call for more harvest hands than were re quired last year in Kansas 'was also out of line with short crop prophecies. The North west reported country Bales of wheat very liberal and the elevators hedging purchases. About the only Important item of the day from a bull standpoint was the sale of 600.000 bushels of cash wheat here. One local milling concern bought 250.OOO bush els if this total. Foreigners covered some short wheat here today. For new crop fu tures, the close was fairly steady, with Sep tember showing a net loss of vs c. Tho range for that option was from 91 c to 3c and the last price was 91(lr91c. May closed at the bottom figure. Hue. Corn was weak. Cash Interests were free sellers of the nearby deliveries in particular. September ranged from o7 c to &sc and closed c down at 57c. The cash market also was weak. No 2 yellow closed at 57 Vi 57Hc In May oats there was general liquidation by longs with the most pressure on Septem ber. That month fluctuated between 35,c and 30Vi (i.Kiiic, closing with lyly,c loss at 3.i j 3.-c. Although provisions were higher early on the lighter run of hogs here and West, weakness In the grain list and some- conse quent realizing by longs caused an easing off later. Pork at the close was 20g,27tc lower; lard. 5(g'7I4c higher and ribs un changed to 2Vic lower. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. Low. C1ob.
