Ice between Portland and the east I
coast of South America is assured
for Portland shippers by the Portland
ti-Flouring- Mills company, A. M. Gilles-
-pie. Inc., and the traffic bureau of the
port and dock commissions. The
steamers which will maintain this
. uirvlce are the West Notus. Rotarian I
' and Pallas of the Pacific-Argentine- I
Brazil line, for which A. M. Gillespie,
Inc., is agent in the northwest.
""" The part of the Portland Flouring!
Mills company in assuring this serv
. ice is supplying constant shipments
of flour to Brazil and Argentine as a I
basic commodity.
Portland Floar fa Demand,
According to officers of this com
pany, a demand has been created in
. .. that section of South America for
grade of flour which cannot be manu
factured from the wheat grown in
the vast fields of the Argentine re-
".public and shipments of about 1000
tons a month of Portland-milled flour
-are expected to be made to this sec
tion.
The part of the port traffic bureau
" in assuring regular service with the
east coast of South America has been
to get the co-operation of Portland
coffee importers in routing their" ship-
ments of this basic north-bound com
modity direct to this port and over
the Portland docks. Portland is rec
ognized as one of the most important
-coffee distributing centers of the Pa
cific coast, but heretofore has re
ceived practically all of its green cof
fee by rail or transshipment from gulf
ports or San Francisco.
IVnl Notus A'ow Loading.
As the second vessel to come here
lr the Pacific-Argentine-Brazil line
and the first to make this port in
scheduled liner service, the steamer
West Notus arrived late last night
. from Puget sound and went to the
Portland Flouring Mills dock to start
loading 1000 tons of flour. She
.ready has in her holds a shipment of
1000 tons of flour from Tacoma.
- - The steamer Pallas of the same
. fleet called here last November for
1000 tons of flour, which she dellv
ered at Rio de Janeiro and Santos.
Brazil. This vessel and the steamer
. Rotarian are now in South American
. waters and the Rotarian is expected
- here in May.
Besides the southbound flour ship
ments and northbound coffee from
. Brazil, a considerable volume of lum
ber is expected to move by this line
of steamers from the Pacific north-
- west as soon as financial conditions
in South America improve.
Fir Timber A No Wanted.
Agents of the Douglas Fir Exploi
tation & Export company have been
active in the South American east
coast countries for several months,
ami it is said that a strong demand
has been created for northern fir
lumber in competition with the long
leaf pine of the Gulf states. -

VANCOUVER. B. C, April 2 (Spe
cial.) The freight rate on sugar was
lowered this week on all cargoes from
Cuba to Vancouver from 114 to $12,
but the importers were asking for
a S10 rate; and it was expected that
the Peru-Vancouver rate would be
lowered to meet the competition from
Cuba.
The coffee rate also has been re
duced to 212 instead of $15, and the
market was beginning to show inter
est. Flour continued to go across the
boundary line to many of the Pacific
American , ports. . and several large
warehouses - in San Francisco and'dam
Seattle were filling with fair-sized
stocks. Coast boats were taking
these shipments from Vancouver.
Increasing the Pacific - European
freight rate on flour and wheat sud
denly shut off all exports from this
port, and during the last weeK rates
have been quoted from Vancouver to
the United Kingdom all the way rrora
55 to 70 shillings on flour, long ton,
and BO to 65 shillings on -wheat, same
measure. A 50-shilling rate brought
big orders here for shipments to the
United Kingdom, but the dream of
business soon was over when the
rate jumped back again to 60 shil
lings. The lumber rate from Vancouver to
New York was only 117.50 by boat the
thousand, while that of the rail lines
was nearly, double. Shingles were 75
cents the 100 pounds and SI. 13 the
100 pounds on rail on the new tariff,
but up until Friday they were $1.20
the ,100 pounds.
These low prices on lumber and
shingles were doing muchto coax' the
trade into action, and this week the
steamer Katrira Luckenbach booked
5,000,000 shingles here to be loaded
on April 12 for Poughkeepsie, N. Y.
The rate on these was 75 cents.
Freight to Australia was very slack,
aggravated to some extent by the
continuous strikes in Australia and
New Zealand interfering with deliv
eries. .' .,

in American bottoms. He said this is -the
attitude of several steamship companif-a,
but that the majority or the shipowners
who art working for the development of
American shipping are willing to see other
nations get their share of commerce, pro
vided the United States gets hers.
