S M LAS .VEGAS
Transcontinental Consign
ment Here From Orient.
MEETING PLANS UNKNOWN
I'orllaml Operators Said to Hxv
Heard Nothing of Conference
to Be Held Tuesday.
Aboard the steamer Las Vegas,
arriving in the river yesterday from
ports on the opposite side of the Pa
cifio in the service of the Columbia
Pacific Shipping company, are approx
imately 800 tons of cargo destined for
transcontinental shipment, while there
are consignments for Portland a
well.
It was over transcontinental freigh
that the rate war in the Pacific was
developed last month and though the
commodities aboard the Las Vegas
were booked in advance of the change
In rates, it is said more of that class
of business has been closed for since'
to move this way. Portland oper
ators, while holding that rates out of
here should be maintained because of
the bulk of the movement being local
business, do not belittle the volume
that figures in trans-shipments and
welcome moving it. In fact there has
been steady movement along that line
to both railroads and intercoastal
tearaship services.
Plans for Conference Uncertain
As regards plans for holding a ses
sion here Tuesday of Washington,
Oregon and California representatives
of trans-Pacific steamship lines with
the idea of ending the rate turmoil
and cementing anew a conference.
Portland operators say direct infor
raation has not reached them. A tele
phone conversation with Seattle yes
terday indicated it was not under
stood there that Tuesday had been
fixed as the meeting date, the im
pression being that Thursday was the
lime.
Unless all lines engaged in the
American-Oriental trade are included
in the conference under the proposed
reorganization, steamshipmen hold
the situation will not be changed.
for that reason it is believed there
will be an effort put forth if the view
of Portland operators carries, for the
joining of all steamship interests
maintaining regular services.
Las Vegas to Be Tied Up.
On discharging her cargo, the Las
Vegas will be prepared to Join the
idle fleet at the shipping board moor
ings. Her boilers are said to have
given considerable trouble on the
present voyage and rather than have
repairs made, in view of the rate situ
ation, it was determined to tie her up.
The Columbia Pacific has six car
riers operating in addition to the
Pawlet, which is in the orient on a
eingle voyage mission and will be or
dered out of commission on her re
turn. ' Notice to "Mariners.

Atlantic Coast Expected - to Take
500,000,000 Feet This Year.
That the Atlantic coast lumber
market will draw from the Pacific
Bide about 500.000.000 feet during 1922
is an estimate of some dealers here,
8nd a check of the movement during
February and March was said ov
them to place the average at about
60.000.000 monthly.
K. I. Dafrson of the Columbia-Pacific
Shipping company, agent for the
United American lines in the inter
coastal sphere, said the low rate in
effect by water on lumber is a nat
ural inducement for considerable
business, and in his opinion the
amount moved will grow to a mate
rial extent during the next few years.
He regards the volume at present as
i. most encouraging showing, yet said
the development of Pacific coast lum
ber in that market appears to offer
an almost unlimited field.
San Francisco Is Dispatched.
Bound for United Kingdom and
European harbors, the steamer San
Francisco of the Isthmian' line was
dispatched late last night by Norton,
Iilly & Co., with a fajr proportion of
Portland freight- There were aboard
J50II cases of canned pears, 37,333
bushels of wheat and parcels of lum
ber for Liverpool with 250 cases of
pears, 420 bags of flour and 250 toni
of hops for London, with u, percentage
of miscellaneous cargo.
Yehime Maru Due Today.
On the arrival of the Japanese
steamer Yehime Maru off the river
from Muroran today in the service of
the American-Oriental line, it may be
decided by A. M. Gillespie. Inc., agents
for the line, to have her start work
ing return cargo first on Puget sound.
The Belgium Maru of the same service
will get away from here early this
week for Yokohama and Kobe and
steamers to follow will be the Ban-
koku Maru and the Fuku Maru,

fublistied Dy Arrangement.;
WASHINGTON, D. C, AprM 1.
(Special.) Ocean freight rates are
beginning to rise, according to re
ports to the Federal Reserve board.
There was an increase or 1 per
cent registered by the board for the
last 30-day period for which returns
have been received.
Shippers are bidding for available
bottoms, and idle vessels are being
brought into operation. From the
standpoint of American ship oper
ators especially, the situation is
filled with promise.
The average of all rates to Kuro-
pean ports is now 29 per cent of the
evel of 1920. This may seem dis
couraging since it represents a big
reduction in the last two years, but
1920, the basis of comparison, was a
boom year.
A month ago the level of rates was
down to 27 per cent of 1920, the low
est mark on record. Now, however,
there is a change upward which to
some operators means the margin
between a vessel out of commission
costing upkeep and general overhead,
and bringing the same bottom into
active service probably at a small
profit or at least earning sufficient
to pay operating costs.
The biggest increase was reported
n rates to the United Kingdom ports.
These are now 35 per cent of the
920 level. A month ago they were
down to 32. An increase of nearly
he same proportion is shown in rates
to France, the Netherlands and Bel
gium. Decreases were reported in rates
to ' Scandinavian and Mediterranean
ports indicating shipments to these
sections are not enough to demand
extra tonnage.
ECOLA TO BE : DRYDOCHJED
Damage to False Keel Necessitates
' Repair to Schooner.
Damage, principally to the false
keel and shoe of the schooner Ecola,
ttributed to the vessel having struck
hen bound from Marshfield for sea.
has resulted in an order that most of
the cargo be discharged and the ves
sel drydocked here for repairs. She
was or. the way to Astoria to com
plete loading lumber for the orient
when the damage occurred, and she
left up yesterday fvr Vancouver,
Wash., where part of the cargo will
be unloaded. The hull was surveyed
by a diver.
The Ecola is one of the sailers con
verted from a wooden steamer hull
originally laid down for the shipping
board as a steamer. She has been in
service for more than a year. When
en route to Coos bay to load she was
responsible for considerable . uneasi
ness, as bad weather prevented her
being towed in, so she stood to the
northward until it improved. While
she was away from the coast there
was all sorts of speculation as to
her welfare, but she showed up in
good order.

BRITISH MOTORSHIP l.OCET KATRIXB. ' .
Even in view of the number of modern vessels constructed here for war purposes and the ma.r types that
have visited here in the last five years, there is keen interest along the water front in the' new Royal Mail
carrier Loch Katrine, which departed from San Francis?o last night and is expected in the harbor Tuesday, she
is on her maiden voyage and is reputed to embody all the latest advantages and frills in motorship construction
The vessel is 503 feet in length and Is of 12,000 deadweight capacity. Accommodations are available for about 12
passengers, though primarily she is a cargo vessel. Owned by the Royal Mail, she is in the Joint service between
European and Pacific ports maintained by that organization and the Holland-Amerika line. The Loch Katrine
tnciudes refrigeration rooms in her freight-handling facilities. On arrival the carrier will go to terminal No. 4

Seattle office of the Suzuki company,
has been accompanying him. Should
the company decide to send its ships
here it will engage in the general car

Jufuka Maru of the Suzuki line are
two of the boats which will come here
if a branch office is established.
ADMIRAL IiIXE MASTER DEAD
Flags Displayed at Half Mast for
Captain II. C. Thomas.
When the Admiral line steamer Ad
miral Evans departed from terminal
No. 2 yesterday afternoon, bound for
California ports, as far as San Diego.
her flag was at halfmast because of
the death of Captain Howard C.
Thomas, master of the Admiral liner
Wenatchee of the trans-Pacific fleet.
who died at Manila Friday. Captain
Thomas is said to have been a victim
of influenza and died aboard his ship.
The funeral will be at Seattle, where
the family resides.
The order for all ships of the line
to display their flags at halfmast
came from H. F. Alexander, president
of the company. The mark of respect
will be continued today and tomorrow.
The Admiral Evans had a number
of passengers and an average cargo.
Blow Hits Julia Luckenbach.
Weather conditions off Cape Blanco
were such that the steamer Julia
Luckenbach, which arrived here late
Friday night, had a lively time of it.
A gale sprang out of the northeast
and swung around until it howled out
of the southwest and the ship was un
able to protect herself against cross
seas off Cape Blanco, with the result
that cargo in hold No. 1 was some
what mixed. The vessel worked yes
terday at terminal No. 1 and will be
due to get under way again today on
her return to the east coast via Puget
sound.
Marine Notes.
The steamer Haniwa, in gathering cargo
for far eastern delivery on account of the
Columbia - Pacific Shipping company,
hauled from the Shell dock to that of
tte Portland Flouring Mills company yes
terday, and today will leave the harbor
fcr Columbia City, where she works lum
ber from the stream.
The steamerTexan, in with European
cargo, shifted from Terminal No. 1 to
terminal No. 4, then back to Columbia
dock yesterday.
The Danish xnotorship Asia moved from
Terminal No. 4 to the Clark & Wilson
mill yesterday to finish loading for Eu
rope. Prince Axel, of Denmark, her mas
ter, has been joined by Prince Eric, his
bi other, who is studying forestry in Brit
ish Columbia, and will remain here until
the ship gets under way for the return to
pcrts beyond the Atlantic.
Earthen ware, porcelain ware, wooden
ware, canned and preserved provisions and
similar shipments are included in cargo
aboard the Japanese steamer Mandasan
Maru, which is discharging preparatory to
working a return cargo of lumber, for
Nippon.
The steamer, Solano, carrying a lumber
caigo for San Francisco, left the Eastern
& Western mill for the south last night.
The Norwegian steamer Hanna Neilsen,
of the Asiatic-American line, went to term
inal No. 1 on arrival from oriental ports
arid hauls up early today to Inman-Poul-ser's

ANTIPODES GET-" HOMES
REGION TO GET FIRST OREGON
READY-CUT MATERIAL.
Many Consignments Expected to
Follow Initial Order Sent to
Fenner Manufacturing Co.
For the first time in history Ore
gon has started supplying the antip
odes with practically complete homes,
instead of merely the raw lumber
out of which to build them. The first
shipment of this sort was loaded on
the steamer West Mahwah last week,
consigned from the Fenner Manufac
turing company to their new agency
in Auckland, New Zealand, where
Fenner ready-cut homes have been
introduced. J. H. Fenner, president
of the company, expects the initial
order to be the forerunner of many.
In those countries, Mr. Fenner ex
plained, American architecture In
houses is still new, but needs only an
introduction. Climate, other local
conditions and the tastes of Austra
lians and New Zealanders all are fa
vorable to the introduction of Ameri
can-style homes.
The "method of selling complete
homes enables Oregon to sell at tle
same time paint, shingles, lath, nails
and hardware that go into each
building. All of the material ' is
packed together, crated and shipped
with complete instructions for erect
ing, diagrams and blueprints.
The Fenner Manufacturing com
pany, starting from a small begin
ning in 1911, has extended its market
to practically every state west of the
Mississippi, and has made a few sales
in the eastern states.
The West Mahwah inaugurated the
Pacific coast-Australian service of
Swayne & Hoyt, for which A. M. Gil
lespie, Inc., are agents here. She will
be followed by the steamer West Islip.
Offerings are reported most satisfac
tory for that departure, and a decided
growth is expected in cargoes from
the antipodes.
WEST HAVEN TO BE EARLY
Steamer Expected Five Days Ahead
of Original Schedule.
The steamer West Haven, due here
from Atlantic ports April 10, has ex
hibited new speed and is ahead of
schedule to the -extent that she will
arrive April 5, H. T. Anning, Portland
agent for the Atlantic-Gulf & Pa
cific Steamship company, learned yes
terday. The vessel will be dispatched
from this harbor two days later.
The company has arranged for addi.
tional terminal facilities at Philadel
phia, and Mr. Anning has been in
formed from headquarters of the new
arrangements as follows:
"The department of wharves, docks
and ferries at Philadelphia has re
cently leased to the Atlantic, Gulf
& Pacific steamship corporation the
north side of pier 40, south wharves.
The pier, in point of construction is
one of the most modern in the port
of Philadelphia, being entirely of
steel and concrete and having two
floors, the upper permitting 45,000
square feet storage space, while the
lower floor is used exclusively by
that line in receiving and delivering
cargo. The added storage facilities
of the company will now enable it to
store large quantities of canned goods
and other western commodities for
spot delivery at Philadelphia, either
by truck or rail."

TRAFFIC REPORTED
Tonnage Moving Briskly, Says
Steamship Manager.
LUMBER TRADE CONTINUES
East Depends Largely on West for
Building Material, South Be
ing Unable to Compete.
Tonnage moving in both directions
through intercoastal lanes is gaining
and it is particularly noticeable of
late as to westbound commodities
going to California because of build
ing under way, says J. W. Chapman,
cciric coast manager for the Will
iams Steamship company, who reached
tne city yesterday. Mr. Chapman
added that Portland and Puget sound
show gains as well, but with the con
struction period somewhat later than
in the southland the early months of
1922 did not show the same class of
freight increasing.
"On the other hand, in eastbound
business, the enlarged movement of
lumber is highly important," said Mr.
Chapman. "The east is depending
on the west for the big volume of its
lumber needs, as the south is not
able to compete in northern Atlantic
cities with the west; that is, in large
lumber orders and in material of
unusual dimensions. I am informed
by San Francisco lumbermen that the
east coast demand exceeds in vol
ume that of all other markets com
bined." ,
Shipments of fullers' earth, borax,
beans and canned fish are increasing
out of Los Angeles, said the visitor,
while inbound the oil industry is
drawing immense stocks of machin
ery and steel for the fields, as well
as general supplies. Transportation
costs, as a consequence of the open
ing of the canal, make the Atlantic
coast markets accessible for Pacific
coast manufacturers and at rates less
than coast firms could quote in plac
ing their wares in the middle section
of the United States, said Mr. Chap
man. He cited one manufacturer of
electric irons, who, having a plant
at Chicago and another near Los An
geles, is shipping from the latter to
the Atlantic seaboard instead of draw
ing from the Chicago factory.
As to business in the northwest.
he said the Williams line is as well
pleased with what is being attained.
He was in conference yesterday with
A. C. Callan, general agent for the
fleet here, and they will spend a few
days on Puget sound, returning the
last of the week, and after a day or
two here Mr. Chapman will return to
his San Francisco headquarters.
