Beaver Makes Good Time, but Co
lumbia Had Faster Gangs.
In three hours and 45 minutes the
steamer Beaver loaded 800 tons of wheat
at Irving dock yesterday, three gangs
of longshoremen being worked. Re
cently the Beaver took on more than
100 tons an hour at the same dock, but
Feter Smith, superintending stevedore
for the San Francisco & Fortland line,
says the record made on the steamer
Columbia nine years ago, of 200 tona in
45 minutes, two gangs being used, yet
stands. Steve Galvtn. foreman on Irv
ing dock, is credited by Mr. Smith with
being the man principally responsible
tfor the fast work, as he orders the
cereal stacked so that tne nanunng to
the ship's side is facilitated.
There is a brisk movement of wheat
on coasters, and besides the Beaver the
steamer J. B. Stetson was cleared for
iU Angeles with 600 tons, carrying
450,000 feet of lumber on deck, while
the steamer San Ramon, sailing for
San Francisco yesterday, carried 477
tona of wheat, 300 tons of oats, 80 tons
of shorts, 25 tons of groats and (6 tons
of miscellaneous stun, also 470.000 feet
of lumber. The eteamer Yosemite was
cleared with tSO.000 feet of lumber.
WINDJAMMER FLEET COMING
Lumber Will Be Loaded for Foreign
Ports on Grays Harbor.
HOQUIAM. Wash.. Sept. 27. (Spe
cial.) One of the largest fleets of wind-
Jammers engaged in the foreign trade
to come to this port in recent months
is now en route here to take lumber.
Most of them are coming from the
west coast. The vessels and the points
from which they report are: Balboa,
F. M. Slade, Manila and Meteor, from
Callao; Alena, from Guaymas: Carrier
Dove, from Demidin, N. Z. ; Defiance,
from Luva; Edwin R. West, from Val
paraiso; J. Ia Stanford, from Mejilliones;
W. J. Patterson, Apia and Wowona,
from Pan Diego. All are schooners ex
cept the Stanford, which is a barken
tine. All Grays Harbor mills are now run
ning full time. It Is stated others are
plentifully supplied with lumber to go
to foreign porta, but the milts are not
hooking orders for long in advance, as
they believe better prices will be of
fered soon. All operators declare they
could contract their outputs for months
ahead for cargo business if they de
sired. ELEVATOR PLANT FINISHING
Wooden Bins Under AVay in Which
Wheat Is First Received.
In two months the building of 28
wooden bins for the storage of wheat,
ar.d practically the reconstruction of
what has been known as the O. & C
dock, will be completed on the East
Side, where the new concrete elevator
of the Globe Grain A Milling Company
stands. The entire improvement will
represent an outlay ot about 1225.000
and Is rated among the finest plants in
the West.
The wooden bins are under way on
the dock proper, and wheat that is
placed in them will be carried from
the bottom on a belt system t'irougb
the cleaner and then to the concrete
tanks for storage. The steamer Port
land, owned by the company, is at the
Craig yard. Long Beach. Cal., having
tanks installed for carrying grain in
bulk, and her overhauling will cost
140,000. She will be In operation as
soon as the elevator is ready, and lit
tle time will be lost in handling this
season s crop.

FEARS FOR AMERICANA END
Hope Yet Held Out That Eldorado
Will Be Heard From.
News received by way of 'Victoria
that the crew of the overdue schooner
Americana has escaped death, even
though the vessel had piled up on Jar

GALVESTON MAY COME HERE
Government Asked to Detail One of
Two Big Diggers on Bar.
If official Washington heeds the
suggestion of Major Mclndoe, Corps
it., (.,,... tt s A the dredge Gal
veston, operated by the Government
at Galveston, rex., win uo scui i
Columbia River to assist the dredge
Chinook In deepening and maintaining
a channel across the bar.
In recommendations forwarded to
the chief of engineers, he mentioned
the Galveston a well as the dredge
Manhattan, the latter having been in
service at New York. As the Galves
ton has a length of 304 feet and the
Manhattan is 288 feet, he believes the
former will work to better advantage.
The Chinook Is 460 feet long, so she
will remain the flagship, though each
of the others have a capacity for about
the same amount of dredged material.
Should the Government officials act
favorably in the matter, the dredge
selected will steam through the Pan
ama Canal and be here in time to begin
work in the Spring.

STOCK TRADING IS LIGHT

Funds Bond Market Kules
Steady- Jold Imports Are
Possible.
NEW TORK, Sept. Z7. With the ex
ception of Reading- and Union Pacific,
each of which made grains of about a
point, the stock market closed today
with prices of the active stocks little
altered,
Trading; was light, and at the opening-
the market sagged silently. Early
losses were made up In most cases, al
though another dip downward toward
the close resulted in small net declines
for many of the leaders. Strength of
Reading and Union Pacific exerted lit
tle influence elsewhere. Union Pacific
rose to the highest quotation of the
present movement.
The bank statement made a disap
pointing showing. Instead of the ex
pected train in cash of $8,000,000, the
increase was only $2,250,000.
Berlin was in this market as a bidder
for funds. For loans to carry over the
settlement period, V4 per cent was of
fered, but so far a could be ascertained
New York bankers have declined to ac
cept these terms.
Bonds ruled steady. Total sales, par
value $800,000. United States 2s de

TREASURY DEPOSITS HELP MARKET
October Settlements Abroad May Be Fol
lowed By Gold Imports.
NEW TORK. Sept, 27. Uncertainty
over the outlook for business was be
lieved to be the principal cause of the
halting tendency of stock prices during
the week. The easing of the money
market, in spite of seasonable demands,
left no obstacle from that cause to the
use of funds in the stock market.
Opinions over trade prospects are con
flicting. Mercantile and commercial
circles express confidence. That tone
is perceptible also in the great textile
centers. Iron and steel trade and rail
road traffic officials are not so confi
dent. The decline in the price of re
fined copper, in spite of the strong sta
tistical position, also affects trade sen
timent Corn-carrying railroads are
estimating the probable losses of traf
fic by reason of damage to that crop.
An Increase of $288,000,000 in the op
...iinff in.nmA of the steam railroads is
shown in the report compiled by the
Interstate Jommerce uommisniuu mi

Such a growth, even with a parallel
Increase in net earnings, uoo u".
out a plea of poverty or of oppression
of the railroads. The exhibit la dread
ed, nevertheless, for the Influence it
may give to claims of all sorts on the
railroads.
The domestic money market was ben
efited decidedly by the Treasury depos
its with National banks in the South
and West. The approach of the Octo
ber settlements hardened discount rates
abroad, but confidence was maintained
that ease would follow the settlements
and possible gold imports to New York.
Disquiet in the Balkans also disturbed
foreign markets.
Strength of a few individual stocks,
including Union Pacific, Reading and
People's Gas, from rumored special
causes, was lacking in sympathetic ef
fect on the general list, owing to the
obvious attempts of profit-taking sell
ers to take advantage of their sustain
ing effect.

The official weekly market report follow:
"Receipts for the week have been: Cat
tle, 1402; calves, 10; hogs, 1083; sheep. 9065;
horses, 26.
"Sentiment in the cattle market has not
been such as to warrant optimism recently.
While receipts have not totaled so much aa
a week ago, there has been more than
enough beef to supply trade needs. The 38
steer has been displaced, at leaat temporar
ily, and extreme top quotation is $7.50 to
$7.75. Butcher quality failed to attain the
high standard of six days ago, and prices on
cows were generally lower. Prime heifers
at $7, cows $6.75, bulls at $5.50 and calvea
at $0 are liberal price tops. Demand for
any but choice finished cattle ia slow and
outlet very unsatisfactory.
"Bumping the hog market is not proving
as easy a task aa buyers anticipated. No
other explanation Is needed than supply
paucity. Statistically, the market Is 10 to
15 cents higher than it was a week ago,
and prime light swine are resting around
$8.75. Some fairly good lots brought $8.50
to $S.60 and $8.7U, too, and amooth weighty
stuff moved readily at $7.50 to $7.75, If
receipts for the week had been larger -perhaps
a more active market would have held
forth, but growers are not rushing to mar
ket as yet and liquidation la spasmodic. Of
course, hogs are beginning to carry more
weight as Winter approaches, and quality
will be a better packing proposition eventu
ally. Until receipts become steady enough
to deluge the trade, ewltie prices have a
good chance to range between $8 and $8.5u,
"Mutton and lamb liquidation continued
liberal last week, and there waa so much
fat killing stutr in the run buyers did not
have the nerve to shade bids. Choice moun
tain wethers sold $1 to $4.25 and ewes at
$4. Packers took to the lamb offerings in
great style, bidding $5.25 for all the best
ones. Pessimists said the markt would
quickly subside to $5 if too muny lamb
were liquidated this week, but they were
disappointed. However, the trade ia not ao
short-handed on lambs and mutton as it waa
10 days ago, and buyers may not manifest
so much Interest during the remainder of
September if liquidation is abnormally
large."

cents decline to an advance of a shade.

Canadian tariff would not be disturbed
