clil.) Look aa if the San Francisco
club wlil Iom four of ita talent thla
year, by draft, trad and in other ways.
Harry Heilmann. aa Is well known,
waa only lent to San Francisco by the
Detroit Tigers, and Detroit has an
nounced that It will pull tha strlnc at
the end of the season. To ret Tiler
Cant, tha pitcher. Harry Wolverton
had to promise Bobby Jones, tha third
sacker. Walter Schmidt slned up for
this season only on tha promise that
tne San Francisco mnnaaement would
find him a lob with some bis; league
club for 11C
While the same promise haa appar
ently not been made to Corhan. the
shortstop Is really entitled to a chance
If any of the major leaauers are de
sirous of his services. To take away
that quartet means there will be some
boles to fllL and It will keep Wolverton
colnc durln tha Winter months to
stop up the caps.
It looks as if Block Is belnr groomed
' far Vhmldt-i berth, aa the first-string
catcher and Louis Sepulveda will drop
Into the second spot In that dlrtalon.
It will be harder, however, to get
together what will practically ba a
brand new Infield. Corhan. to our way
of thinking. Is the ruling shortstop of
tha league this year. He la hitting
better than was tha case In 1JM. and
his fielding is above reproach. In fact,
ha haa done mora than any other one
man to put tha Seals where they are
IS) inf race iui inw , -
With Jonea and Heilmann missing,
there will be oth-r problems as well,
and perhaps Boas .Iarrya hair will be
whiter than It Is at present before he
straightens out tha tangle. Rut suffi
cient unto the day Is the evil thereof,
and Just now It Is a tough enough
proposition to keep the club up In the
ra-e for honors.
Harry Heilmann will be out of the
game for at least another week, and
perhaps two. so goes tha report. As
was announced, he la suffering from
a growth In one of hie ears that seems
to have affected his nervous system.
Heilmann would appear to be ona of
the strongest chap In tha game. On
the contrary, he is quite subject to
minor ailments and haa to watch him
self most carefully all the way along,
so aa to be sura be la In shape for play
ing. e e
Fhll Koerner. playing first basa with
the Angela. Is one of the league sur
prises. rll Joined the Oaka with a
big reputation, but ha couldn't seem
to catch on with that team. Finally
and reluctantly tha club handed him
his release. Koerner loafed around for
a time and finally, when Ileatty waa
out of tha running, he was signed as a
hurry-up substitute. Since then Koer
ner has been hitting the plil with a
bang, and worked hla way rlrht Into
tha good graces of the fans, ilore than
that, be has earned a permanent berth
In the estimation of Frank Dillon, who
happens to ba tha boss and tha fellow
with tha last word.

Although the minor leaguera are
cheduled to hold their annual meeting
la San Francisco nest October, base
ball people do not look for a big at
tendance. Of course, the officera and
soma of the men wbo never miss a ses
sion will flock to this city, but it Is
surmised that the rank and file will
be conspicuous by their absence. For.
as you are aware, this has been a lean
year In baseball. Soma of the mag
natea haven't been able to keep their
beads above water, othera have been
lucky to stagger along, and none of
the cluba have done any good for them
selves. Salt Lakers are still talking about
Jimmy Toman, whom they can't see as
an umpire any way you look at tha
matter. It appears that not so long
ago Toman was an umpire In the Union
Association. Ha wasn't popular as an
Indicator man and the fana let him
know It. Of course, when thtnga start
ed to go wrong with the Bees, and To
man was on deck, they blamed him.
The playera are Inclined to ba con
servative, and while they say that
Jimmy Isn't the best umpire In tha
world, they admit that hia mistake
are usually on a &0-&0 hauls. In other
words, the errors of Judgment don't
affect the pennant rare to any extent.

San Pedro, la Captain G. K. Knight, ber master, whose friends recently had cause to congratulate him on
belns; away from his former chars;, th Nebraakan, aister ship of the Nevadan, which was struck by a tor
pedo from a German submarine.
On her last voyase from New Tork he changed berth with Captain Green, as he had made one voy-
across th Atlantic on th Nebraakan and preferred tha New York-Pacific Coast route. The Nebraskan
had reached Europ and was on her way horn when attacked. She is undergoing repairs at an Knglish
port. The Nevadan is bringing over 1000 tons from New York, and on her outward voyage will have 2000
tons of flour for Charleston. Inaugurating th 1911 service to the South Carolina harbor.
AND THE PACIFIC.
t.
the year before Is said to hav ban
died Immense business.
On her last voyage she sailed from
San Francisco April 14 and reached the
Columbia River at midnight April 18.
Her loss Is attributed to tha fact It
wag decided to proceed inside at once
without waiting for daylight.
In tha Marina History of the North-
wet. K. W. Wright, now manager of
the Port of Portland, wroli concerning
the wreck as follows:
-The decision waa fatal to the old
China liner, and within an hour she
had made her last port, grounding on
Sand Island, to be leisurely knocked
to pieces two daya later. The steamer
struck so lightly that few of those
aboard knew of the accident at the
time, and all were confident of soon
being again afloat. Unfortunately, the
steamer grounded at nearly nigh tide,
and tha next tide was so small that
she could not float off.
- -Her weight had also severely
strained the hull and disarranged the
machinery, the Injection pipes break
Ing when the sea fell and the feed
and bilge pumps also refusing to work,
permitting tha water to gam rapidly
when the tlda again flooded, and giv
ing the rising wavea a full sweep at
the house and upper works."
The Great Republic was Insured for
130.000 and the cargo for 2.0QO. and
tha value, of the freight, amounting to
1051 tons, waa 175.000. The wreck and
cargo were sold for $1:80 and 12500.
respectively. The vessel continued to
break up. and May 1 the entire hull
aft of tha walking beam broke away,
and for years the walking beam and
huge wheels were used as targets by
gunners at Fort Canby. Less than a
month after the loss of the Great Re
public the steamers Oregon and State
of California were placed In service.
There Is now said to ba 14 feet of
water over the wreck, and the placing
of day and nightnavlgatlon aids there
was principally In the Interest of try
lower river fishing fleet. s

There were 300 tired cityites to hie

and It waa one of the largest crowds
yet sent away for Uie week-end trip.
The ateamer T. J. Potter, leaving at
10 o'clock last night, bore another
capacity load toward tha ocean, and
both are sold out for the return from

J'Captaln" Bud. who directs the fresh

saya that weather conditions at the
beach this season are all that could be
desired and temperatures have been
appreciably less than prevailed here
during the past two weeks. The Cali
fornia attractions have drawn to some
extent from tlje beach travel, but it
is said the percentage of cottagea open

diminution in travel is among the

LICENSE IS GOAL
Woman Asks to Be Examined
for Pilots' Ticket.
INSPECTOR IS SURPRISED
Wife of Steamer Captain Told She
- Must Hare Three Years' Deck
Experience to Qualify (
for River Papers. .
"I want to take examination for second-class
pilot's papers," waa tha In
troductory remark of an attractive
young woman to United States Inspec
tor of Hulls Edwards yesterday morn
ing. Captain Edwards had expected a re
quest to assist a foundling asylum. He
was prepared to receive a plea for di
rections as to how to reach the nearest
excursion steamer. In fact, he might
have smiled at almost any sort of an
announcement as to the business of the
visitor but that she sought to ascend
the maritime ladder on her way to se
cure a masters ticket.
Mrs. Mamie L. Burkholder, of 364 East
Thirty-fifth street, whose husband. Cap
tain Nathan Burkholder, ia master of
the steamer John A- Shaw, of the Ham
mond Lumber Company's fleet, waa the
applicant.
She presented the usual application
but because it did not set forth clearly
the amount of-experience she had in
the deck department, the inspectors in
formed her that It" must show three
years spent as a deckhand.
Determination Not Shaken.
Mrs. Burkholder was not In the least
deterred from her determination to ob
tain papers.
"Why, I've been on steamers on this
river seven years, and have often stood
watch in the pilothouse from two to
six hours with, my husband handling
th e wheel as would a quartermaster,
she said. "This deck experience fea
ture is not an insurmountable obstacle.
I've handled a small boat since I was
a girL and can make lines fast either
when a boat ia landing or in picking up
a raft.
"Of course," she said aa an after
thought, "it is not the most desirable
vocation for a woman, and at times she
appeara ungainly, perhaps; but I was
six years on the steamer Lottie with
my husband, and for the last seven
months we have been on the John A.
Shaw. I have shouldered the work of
a deckhand many times on our boats.
which naturally is different from the
labor of a 'roustabout' on the larger
boats, such as run In the passenger and
freight trade on the river.
There ia no question in my mind
that I can pasa the examination. In
fact. I think I ahould have 'gone up'
for a pilot's ticket Instead of a second-
class license. There are two women on
Puget Sound who have master's papers,
and in other parta of the United 'States
are women officers on vessels."
Navigation Called Easy.
Captain and Mrs. Burkholder have
been married 11 years. Her life In the
open and on the river haa apparently
fitted her physically for the Job of han
dling a wheel, and she says such re
quirements as boxing a compass, giv-
ng passing signals, backing and filling.
telling the various day and night marks
along the Willamette and Columbia are
as easy aa operating a chafing dish.
ao, tne prospects are that Captain
Edwarda will receive another call from
this determined woman, wbo aays that
a motorboat operator's license or one
for any craft under 10 tona is not her
desire, for she seeks a ticket the same
as any riverman, and Is prepared to put
in tne time under salary In order to
earn one.
Portland has one other woman with
a navigator's ticket, Mrs. i Minnie Hill,
who, for a time, enjoyed the distinction
of being the only steamboat captain
of the opposite aex west of the Mis
sissippi. She was born at Albany, Or.,
In 1863, and began her river career
with her husband. Captain Charles Hill,
aboard the steamer Governor Newell.
After obtaining her license she was
master of the Newell for a lengthy
period, her husband serving as engi
neer, but retired from the river a few
years ago.
FLEET SALE LOSS FELT
PACIFIC MAIL LI.MER DISPOSAL
CAl'SES SHIPPING STIR.
Inability t . Compete . With Oriental
Craft Because) of Seamen's Law
Rumored aa Cause.
New of the sale of five big liners
of the Pacific Mall fleet the Man
churia. Mongolia. Korea. Siberia and
China to the Atlantic Transport Com
pany, a move said by Pacific Mail of
ficials to be forced owing to the en
forcement of the new eeamen's law,
which would prevent them from com
peting with lines owned by Orientals,
created a stir among shipping interests
here.
Directly the line bore no relation to
Portland, though much freight originat
ing here has been shipped to San Fran
clsco and routed on those steamers to
.17 -
over-Pacific ports, as well as consign
ments drawn from the Far East, which
have reached here over the same route.
being transhipped within the Golden
Gate.
The loss,' as Portlanders view it. is
principally in the withdrawal of such a
large American fleet from the Trans-
Pacific trade. The war has stopped
the Hamburg-American line, and. while
the Royal Mail is operating vessels,
its service is Impaired, as far as Port
land Is concerned, because of the war.
The Great Northern Steamship Com
pany, owning. the giant liner Minne
sota, running from Puget Sound, has
been reported several times of late to
contemplate ceasing its service. While
the Canadian Pacific, from British Co
lumbia ports, is operating under a tem
porary and unsatisfactory manner since
the war created a demand for its com
modious and speedy vessels. -
Therefore the Pacific Mall and the
Japanese lines have been about the
only fleets not affected seriously by
tne European disturbance. In fact, the
Pacific Mail has enjoyed an enormous
gain in trade because of its fine fleet
and. position and the Coast is being
able to care for cargo in the absence of
other, steamers.
Portland was connected with the Pa
cific Mail before because it gained con
trol of the Portland & Asiatic line,
owned by the O.-W. R. St N., also the
San Francisco & Portland fleet, now
known aa the "Big Three," likewise
owned by the O.-W. R. & N., while at
times steamers of the Pacific Mail's San
Francisco-Central American fleet were
assigned to the Portland-San Francisco
run while tha regular vessels were off,
so there ia an interest here other than
tha fact that the disposal of the big
linera eliminates an American-owned
line from the lucrative trade of th
Oriental sphere.
