Chance made by tha North Pacific
fftea.-nshlp Company In putting First
Officer Ahlman. of tha steamer Roan
; oke. In command of tha Steamer Santa
. Oara. which has been repaired at San
1 Francisco after being wrecked April
11. south of Eureka, and filling; his
place with Frank Vena, formerly aec-
ond officer of the steamer K II burn.
has given rise to speculation as to
.what run the Saia Clara will be as-
' signed.
I C. P. Ioe. head of the corporation. Is
In Chlcaa-o and at the local office It
lis said nothing w'll be done regarding
! the vessel until he returns. At the
i same time It Is known that the steamer
aTureka was placed on the Portland
Humboldt Bay route to determine what
htistnesa could be secured with a view
I to
Imprnvlnc tha service later with
faster craft, and one of greater carry
ling capacity. The Eureka, while re.
ar4ed aa a good sea vessel, has not
sufficient power to buck the severe
1 head winds that are encountered, and
' with accomodation for only 40 passen-
tri she has had a full list on every
voyage from Portland.
Northbound Cargoes Light.
One strong; complaint made against
Ihe run Is that there la not enough
northbound business. Southbound the
vessel has had plenty of cargo, for
Portland merchat.'s have a fair trade
despite competition from San Francis
ro. a few cars of sashes and doors
and smaller freight usually constitute
the northbound list and that does not
represent more than half a cargo.
Trade between Portland Coast har
bors is not being underrated by steam
ahln owners. This Is evidenced by th
fact that they continue to send their
vessels regularly to point north of
the Golden Gale, and that Cooa Bay
and Ttlamook are showing particularly
stroni gains. The steamer Breakwater.
f the Harrlman fleet, which Is said to
have been operated at a slight loss
-when the Alliance was in that service.
Is getting a full share of the businesa
mt present and la reported to be mak
ing her owners a fair return on the In-
estment.
In the Tillamook trade the steamers
;olden Gate and Sue II. Elmore
doing a thriving business and In the
Ist few montha both have left cargo
lht could not be accommodated on
their docks several times. The Golden
t;te secured new northbound businesa
on her Isst voyage, ror on arrival yes
terday she stopped at the I nlon Stock
Tarda to discharge 1 head of hogs.
It Is understood there will be regular
ahloments of stork to this market In
future.
I more; Brings Cream. .
The KImore also had the first ship
ment of an unusual consignment. She
unloaded i cana of cream that bad
been Incased In tubs and packed In Ice.
While there la plenty of cream to be aa
cured In the Tillamook region, because
of lta vast dairying Interests. It has
been thought In the past that It could
rot not handled by water owing to
limited facilities In the way of refrig
eration. The method Introduced by the
KImore promises to el'mlnate that ob
jection. When she aalls Tuesday the
tubs will be returned to be refilled
with cream cans, aa will 71 cases In
which were shipped fresh fish, packed
In Ice.
That the completion of the line of
the Pacific Railway Navigation Com
pany. from Tillamook to Portland, will
tend to Increase water shipments,
rather than to diminish them Is as
serted by representatlvea of the two
steamers, who hold that while the rail
roads may carry aome perishables that
demand faster transportation, with the
further development of the coast coun
try there will be created a greater de
mand for bulky freight that will be
onoved over the cheaper route.

cient to send as far aa with vessels having more space between the masts. It Is confidently expected thai

CONTRACTORS EXPECT TO COMPLETE NEW MADISON BRIDGE
if.
Ftl OT. TEEL 81M2TS HOW I3f FI -
4 SPANS IN PLAGE
Madison Bridge to Be Finished
in September.
WORK ON DRAW LIFT BEGUN
Hngh Span Will Be Put Together on
False - Work and Floated ' Into
PositionEstimated Cost of
Structure la $450,000.
With the completion of the substruc
ture of the new Msdlson bridge a few
dsys ago, marked progress Is being made
with the ateel work. The United Engi
neering 4 Construction Company, which
has the contract to install tha ateel
superstructure, announcea that it expects
to complete the work by the middle of
September at the latest. The company
has Increased Its force and Is hurrying
the work aa rapidly as it will permit.
Barring accidents, no further delays are
expected, as all material necessary for
the construction of the bridge is on the
ground.
Four steel spans are In place and the
work of riveting Is about completed. The
west tower haa been started as haa also
the fifth span. The Immense draw lift
will be put together on false work and
when completed will be floated Into place.
It la estimated that It will take three
weeks to finish the lift span and put It
Into position.
Each of the two towers, from which
the lift span will be operated, will be
approximately 140 feet In height, measur
ing from the low water mark. It Is ex
pected that they will be completed by
the time the lift span can bi made ready
to put Into place. . .
In several other features the . bridge
will be different from the other struc
tures across the Willamette River. Street
car tracks will be placed on either s?ae
of the bridge, outside the upright frame
work. Six-foot passageways for pedes
trians will be constructed outside the
tracks, and will be practically on a Una
with the street sidewalks. Tha middle
part of the bridge, that lying between
the upright framework, will be used ex
clusively for vehicles and heavy traffic.
By this arrangement, there will b

leas chance for congestion on the bridge
during the rush hours of the day. The
new plan of having a lift span Instead
of the old-fashioned swing draw, . will
also be more satisfactory, It Is believed,
as it can be lifted and lowered to let
boats pasa In much less time than that
required for opening the draws. In place
this lift will be high enough so that
many of the smaller boats can pass un
der It.
Work on the bridge was begun last
Fall and considerable delay was exper
ienced from time to time by the company
having the contract to install the super
structure. ' Otherwise the bridge would
probably have been completed and in use
at present.
The estimated cost of the structure is
