AL III HOUR
OF SAILING CHANGED
Daylight Trip Down River
. Is to Be Provided.
NEW SCHEDULE JULY 26
Admiral Farragut to Inaugurate
Service by Leaving Here
at 10 A. M.
Beginning- with the departure of
the steamer Admiral Farragut
JulV 26 tor California ports as far
as San Diego, the Pacific Steam
ship company will send Its vessels
from Portland on that route at 10
o'clock each Wednesday morning
Instead of at 4 o'clock Tuesday af
ternoon, as is the present schedule.
The new arrangement will not af
fect the steamer Senator until
August 2, so she will be the last
to leave under the present card at
4 o'clock Tuesday.
One advantage of the new sched
ule is permitting passengers from
Portland to enjoy a daylight trip
down the Columbia rive, as well as
becoming settled aboard ship be-
lore reacning the ocean.
River Trip Enjoyed.
The same sailing hour has been
maintained for a long time by the
San Francisco & Portland line with
the steamer Hose City, and during
former days, when the steamers
Beaver and Bear operated with her,
the summer sailing hour was 9
o'clock. Tourists and even many
Portlanders who had not taken the
river journey found the daylight run
decidedly worth while.
The Senator was lifted on drydock
this' trip for cleaning and painting
the hull and on being floated yes'
terday returned to terminal No. 2
to complete heT cargo. The new
morning sailing card, according to
H. S- Baton, general agent, provides
for the steamers reaching San Fran
Cisco Friday night and Wilmington
Sunday afternoon, the layover there
being until Monday afternoon, so
San Diego is reached Tuesday morn
tag. On the northbound voyage the
ships are to arrive at Portland early
Monday morning. They will have a
longer time at this end of the line
than at present.
Steamer Headed North.
The steamer Admiral Goodrich,
which has replaced the Admiral Rod
man on the Portland-Marshfield-
Eureka-San Francisco route, left the
Golden Gate at 11:30 o clock yester
day morning with 700 tons of freight.
She is due Tuesday and will leave
Friday. With the Admiral Goodrich
on the run, she being twice the size
of the Admiral Rodman, the com
,- pany is to handle cedar poles and
other timber between coast ports and
Portland, while much of the same
class of cargo will be sent to San
Francisco as well.
ASTORIA TRADES IN INCREASE
Customs for Decade and for Last
Fiscal Year Illuminating.
Statistics covering transactions at
the Astoria customs house for 10
years, credit the 1921-22 period with
a total value on imports of $338,752,
as against $79,795 for 1912-13, and
$4,160,575 as the value of exports
handled for the year ended June 30,
as compared with an export value
of $859,381 for the fiscal year 1912
13. Receipts for the year ended last
month were $59,712.95 and in 1912-13
they were $20,846.81.
While detailed official figures
have not been given out relative to
the Oregon customs district for the
last year, the showing at Astoria
was tabulated for the Information
of Collector of Customs Piper. The
statement sets forts that during
1912-13 there were 110 vessels to
enter at Astoria from foreign ports
and last year that had grown to 224
ships.
The lower Columbia river dis
trict has made gains In other ways
as with lumber shipments, and the
direct service to the Hawaiian is
lands from there as well as Increase
in other trades, especially in inter-
coastal channels is counted on to
show to greater advantage for the
new year.
PORT PICNIC IS TODAY
Several Hundred Employes Are
Expected to Take Part.
Several hundred employes of the
Port of Portland commission and
their families will participate in the
. p.nnual picnic today at Swan Island.

tables and benches provided, as well
as tents for bathers to dress in and
even an emergency hospital tent is
up, in charge of which is to be a
nurse. A swimming pool has been
measured off with lifelines, and a
dozen ring buoys are Placed con
veniently should any mishap befall
a swimmer or any of the particl
pants in boat races. Baseball is
promised as a feature, teams from
the dredges being the contenders,

SWEDISH SHIPPING NOT IDLE
Less Than Eight Per Cent of All
Vessels 'Without Cargoes.
STOCKHOLM, July 15. Less than
S per cent of Swedish, shipping is
now idle, according to the latest re
port of the Swedish Shipowners' as
sociation. This report shows
sharp contrast to conditions a year
ago, when in June Swedish shipping
depression reached bottom mark
with over 44 per cent of the coun
try's total tonnage idle -and nearly
4S per cent of the men employed
laid off. The report of the shipown
ers' association covers only its mem
bership, but virtually all of the
country's shipping is owned by
members of the association.
The recovery of Sweden in ship
ping is based largely on the coun
try's approach to normal in many of
Its most important industries and
the rapid increase in exports.

LESS THAX CARLOAD SHIP
MENTS NOW INCLUDED.
Announcement of Change Is Re
ceived by Columbia Pacific
Shipping Company. '
Absorption of transfer charges on
less than carload shipments received
by the American-Hawaiian Steam
ship ; company at Bush terminals,
New York, for delivery at Pacific
coast ports, Is the latest move to
the advantage of shippers, as an
nounced yesterday by the Columbia
Pacific Shipping company, Portland
agents for the fleet, which was ad
vised of the step by telegraph.
-It has been customary to to-ke care
of transfer charges on carload ship
ments, cars being switched to the
terminals, while the unloading is
not taxed against the freight. But
on less than carload movements
there has been a charge of 8 cents
on each 100 pounds. The new ab
sorption Is said to be applicable to
water shipments reaching New York
for westbound , movements, as well
as those originating at rail points.
New York advices are that the
Luckenbach line has withdrawn
from the gulf conference on the
plea that rates between the gulf
and Pacific ports may . be affected
as a consequence of rate cutting by
the North Atlantio coast lines. The
present situation was precipitated

OFFER TO SALVAGE STEAMER
HELD TOO. HIGH.
Negotiations for Disposition of
British Vessel Now Menace to
Navigation Under Way.
i On the heels of the action of the
federal government in taking pos
session of the- wrecked British
steamer "Welsh Prince,-which was
announced Friday, . information has
been received that in tentative ne
gotiations for the salvage of the
wreck" and cargo as a contract job
$200,000 had been asked by wreck
ers which was reiused. On the
other hand a bid of about $37,500
was received for the purchase of
the wreck and cargo, of:' which
amount it Is saia the figure for the
hull alone was about 13100. .
In proceedings In the matter the
war department has held the wreck
to be an obstruction and a menace
to navigation, and , so , instructed
Major Richard Park, corps of en
gineers. United States army, to take
charge and advertise for proposals
covering its removal. " 'A draft of
specifications was finished yester
day and early in the week copies
are .to be available for bidders. On
the blanks being given out a date
for opening bids is to be made
known. The plan is to have such
details closed in 30 days, so that as
soon as possible afterward the suc
cessful bidder can begin operations.
It has been indicated in late tele
grams from the east that the own
ers of the Welsh prince have aban
doned the vessel to the underwrit
ers, but in view of the low figures
offered for the hull alone, it Is re
garded as doubtful if the under
writers will make any further move.
simply permitting the government
to go ahead with its programme for
the sale and removal of the sunk
en vessel and cargo.'
The means to be employed In the
work promises to Interest the ma
rine and salvage fraternity. Some
favor blowing away the decks so
that the cargo of timbers, which
was destined for ' the orient, can
float free. Then 3600 tons of, steel
plate might be reached more easily.

ACQUIRES FORTU
Penniless Greek Saves;
$500,000 in America. .
HELP IS GIVEN FRIENDS
Career Begun as Dishwasher and
After 10 Years Eating
House Is Purchased.
NEW YORK, July 9. (Special.)
This is the story of James Constan-
tine, who landed in America from
Greece 21 years ago in poor health
nd penniless and who is returning:
home for a visit with a. half million
dollars he has accumulated here.
Constantine's story of accumula
tion is also one of generosity and
good living. He has worked hard in
his time, but once the money came
he began living.
Lonstantine, whom every one
knows as "Jim," was seen In his
New Minden house at Jamaica. He
is a tall, handsome, fleshy man, who
regards his corpulency with humor.
His appetite, he says, is one of the
most expensive In the country. He
was born in Paphos. the Island of
Cyprus. It is an English possession.
but the language and customs on
that island, however, are Greek. He
went to school until 14 and then was
apprenticed to a tailor. He dldnt
like the trade very well, but a- living
had to be earned somehow. From.
Paphos he went to Smyrna, Turkey,
where he practiced his trade, but
had no great success at it; it Just
about keot him from starving.
After five years In Smyrna, he
found he had a balance of about
$100. He was 21 at the threshold
of life. He had heard of the won
ders of America. Maybe that land
held something lor him. Anything
was better than tailoring. He took
passage and came across steerage.
On the same ship were other Greeks,
but they all knew some one in,
America; Constantino was alone. He
tried to describe to a visitor his
feeling when he landed, in Castle
Garden and looked around. All his
countrymen were rushing to meet
mends and relatives. No one came
for him. He didn't know where to
go, or what to do. Luckily one of
his shipmates, an. Italian, saw (him.
Both went to a cheap lodging' house
the Italian" knew about.
Here was Constantine's first en
counter with the psychology of food.
Let him tell it:
When I walked into the dining
room run with the lodging house I
didn't know what to order. I didn't
know a word of English. My Italian
friend spoke to me with signs. I sat
down to the table, and there oppo
site me was a man eating ham, and
eggs. When the waiter came I
pointed to the ham and eggs. He
told me their name. I nodded. For
a week after that I lived on .ham and
eggs. I ate that food three times a :
day. I was heartily sick of it, but
didn't know how to order anything
else. Also my money was running
low. Pretty soon I wouldn't be able .
to afford ham and eggs."
Eating: House Purchased.
Then came a relief. A man walked !
into the house one day and said he
wanted a dishwasher. Several men
rose for the job. but the pay was
only ?15 a month and nobody wanted
to work for that. Constantine, how
ever, took the Job. That Is how he
went to work for Mike Minden, the
only boss he ever had. Mike Minden
at that time had a restaurant on
Ocean boulevard.
Constantine moved slowly upward.
He was promoted to fireman, then
second cook and finally chef. He
worked for Minden ten years, in
every one of his restaurants. About
1910 he purchased the Minden House,
which he still runs in Jamaica. At .
that time the racing season was at
its height. Constantine's place was
popular as a rendezvous.
Friends Are Helped.
There was one thing about this
rendezvous which every one learned
to respect. No crooked work was
tolerated. Constantine saw many a
bet placed, but he never bet him
self. That is one of the reasons
why, he says, he still has his money.
He saw rich men go broke over
night. He heard wild stories of
riches. But he wasn't taking the
get-rich-quick method. But many a
racing man did he help. Often the
freest spenders landed Up broke.
Then Constantine would take them
in and feed them.
All the benevolent organizations
in Jamaica tell about contributions
from Constantine. His entertaining
was lavish. When he married, and
at the birth of each of his children,
Constantine's house was thrown
open. And his generosity paid.
People liked to gather in his place.
Constantine was voted a "good
fellow."
Constantine is going to the island
of Cyprus, where he will visit his
old mother. Also he will tour
Europe with his wife and two ohil- -dren.
And it Is said that when he
leaves his escort to the ship will
amount to a parade. That's what
Jamaica thinks of "Jim" Constan
