JANUARY 10, 1904. i V i' X t fc I f STORM TIES UP SHIPPING Severe Gate Howls Along North Coast and Prevents De partures, ABERDEEN IN THE OFFING Couldn't Get In Because of Tho Bt Lumbar Shipment For tho Week Roach Almott Four Million Foot : A (rent atorm u raging alone tho North IVclflc coast last night, and tho in-Ilcattons are that It will continue for some time to come. So severe was the jraie yesterday that shipping was parulyvied and not a single movement was reported In' or out of the harbor. At (.30 last night It was reported that a gale was howling along at a veloc ity of ? miles an hour, and that the wind hns been Increasing In velocity tor several hours. tYlrtny afternoon a steam schooner was reported off tho Heads, and as yet ( she hns failed to make port. Tho vea 1 was reported by the North Ileal lookout. She came up to the mouth of of the river and was In sight until darkness settled down. Yesterday the vessel evidently did not again put In an appearance, for she was not re norted from the Heads. The steam- la believed to have been the Abe'r-I deen. which was due Friday night from San Francisco. She comes to take the run of the Alliance, which is laid up at San Francisco for repairs on her arrival there from this port. The Aberdeen has doubtless been blown to the north by the gale, but tbe'e is no concern tor her. as she Is wen able to weather the blow. It Is expected she will show up again off the river as soon as tho gale moderates. The storm has tied up shipping and several vessels are in port waiting for tho gale to subside. The steamer Al liance, grain laden, went down to the lower harbor Friday night and took an chorage, and the Despatch remained at her wharf until yesterday afternoon and then nroceeded to the lower har bor. Several lumber schooners are al so weather bound . " TWO NEW GRAIN CHARTERS. Msodslone and VereinBtri Com Hero From Bay City. Twenty shillings far wheat from Portland to the United Kingdom was the rate secured by two ships Friday j Both vessels are now at San Francisco but will be here, one the latter part of this month, the otfier In February They are the German' bark Magdalene and the French ship Verclngetorlx. ' The Magdellne Is one of the best known traders In this part of the world. She has already carried out four cargoes from this port, three un der her present name and one as the old Trade Wlnda The Portland Grain Company has taken her on the pres ent business. " Under her old' name tbe vessel was here In the summer of 1898, and was dispatched 'to the Unit ed Kingdom by Epplnger & Company with 180,310 bushels of wheat for which she received a rate of 36s Sd. Returning to Portland she sailed In January 1900, for England with 138, 135 bushels of wheat and 14,457 bush els of barley, loaded by Dalfour, Guth.j rle company, ner rate being 24s 9d Her third voyage out. In May, 1901 was tho most profitable she made from here, as she hnd a charter at 38s 9d. Balfour , Guthrie A Company dis patched her then with 161,158 bushels of wheat, the bark going to Hamburg direct. The last cargo she took fig ured 161,405 bushels, and wus sent by Kerr, Gilford & Company, the rate be ing 28s 9d. The Magdalene reached San Fran 'rlsca November 21, after a passage of 146 days from Newcastle-onTyne, with a general cargo. She Is a big bark of 2732 tons net register, and Is In the command of Captain Brunings who was in her on her last visit tc the Columbia. The French ship Verclngetorlx was vharted by Balfour, Guthrie & Co. United Kingdom. She Is of 1730 tons and her master is Captain Davlgnon. 8he reached San Francisco on the last ilny of the year, with 2910 tons of coal from Newcastle N. S. W. It Is reported that the French bark La Bruyere, now at Port Los Angeles Is offering for 20 shillings at Portland but the deal has not been closed. The two disengaged ships now In this port the Cresslngton and the Red Rock, may be taken for lumber. SOUND CAPTURES TRADE. San Francisco and Portland Falling Back In Commercial Trade :The San Francisco Call of January ? has an Interesting article showing tho exports of the several coast orts to Alaska and tho Philippines. Tho statistics gathered by the Call are tak en from tho government renorta. In speaking of tho matter the Call says: 'The first fact for observation Is that the Puget sound cities are gaining strongly In the race for the business of Alaska and the Philippine. The customs returns just at hand show that the Pacific coast shipments to Al aska have Increased since ls8 from SISS.OOO to J13.457.0O in 1S0I. - During the fiscal year ending June 1. 1J0S. the value of shipments from tho Pa Cine const to Alaska amounted to 19. I6S.804. Of this amount Puget sound set out 8.1J8,0S. San Francisco t, 655,541 and Portland and Astoria SITS, lie. ' "The value of shipments of all goods from the United States to the Philip pine Islands during the nine months ending September S0.1903, was IS.S09. 4!7, as compared with IMIS.TIJ tor the corresponding period In 1WS. Tho, fol lowing table Is provided to show how the export cosines to the Philippines from this coast Is llstrlbuted. the fig ures representing tho values moved ach namd durin the rlne months ending on September SO In 190J and IMS: Kron. 1901. 13 HumLoldt, Cal ...I J0.HT I 1S.J15 San Francisco .... 827.5 J7 479.140 rngct Sound .... 30.87e l.US.M Portlund and As toria 188.S0S S7.I7T "The Igares from official sources have Just been received by Eugene Ooodwln. director of the Pacific Corn- mewlal museum, and be la making a compilation for a bulletin to be Issued for the benefit of the business com munity. Concerning the falling off In exports from San Francisco and Port land to the Philippines In 190S Mr. Goodwin says that It may bo account ed for In part by the establishment ot direct steamship service between Se attle and Manilla and the large ship ments of lumber and forage from Se attle. The values of auch shipments during the nine months ending last September were as follows: Oats, $187. 815: hay. $166. 892. lumber. $440,683. The significant fact Is that the Puget sound ports are increasing their ex ports not only to Alaska but also to tho orient at tho expense ot San Francisco, prlent at the expense of San Francisco." Goodwin from- official sources showing Ike values of the principal commodities shipped to Alaska from Pacific coast points during July, August and Sep tember last and also affording a com parison with the shipments during the summer of 1901. These shipments dur ing tho months of July, August and September In 1902 amounted to $2,249. 429. and In 1903 to $2,501,273. The shipments from Pufcet sound were $1.- 7D,9fO in 1902 and $2,070, 901 In 1903. In the same period San Francisco Is' credited with shlpnents valued In 1901 at $160,437. and In 1903 at $438,372. U will he observed that shipments from Puget Sound Increased during the per of three' months in 1903 as compared with the same months In 1902 to the extent of $282,000, while those from San Francisco decdeased $30,000." Loss of the Clellsm. News of the loso of the steamship Clellam was received In Astoria yes- tet day morning, and details of the dis aster were anxiously awaited by the people of the city. It was considered. remarkable that so few 6f the passeng ers had been saved with two tugs stand log l,y, anJ the belief was general that first reports of the wreck had been. exaggerated. However, the death list Is an appalling one. Because of ihe ter rible gale that raged at the time of the wreck, the tugs were unable to rescue many of the passengers. Purser rank Freer, of Clallam, was among the saved. He was formerly purser of the oriental liner Monmouthshire and was quits well known In Astoria. Paris Probably Lost. All hopes for the overdue French bark Paris has been abandoned and It Is feared that she has foundered In a hur rlcane in the South Pacific. The vessel Is 246 days out from Hamburg for Hon olulu with a general cargo, and has not been heard from since the day of her departure from the German port. 'flifie have been two recent additions to the overdue list, reinsurance on both twlng quoted at 10 per cent. The new ove.'dues are the French berk Jeanne Coroonnler, 160 days out from Swansea for sJan Francisco, and the British ship Martaban, which Is 116 days out from Java for the Baradoea.

The weather of the past week was too stormy to permit of dredging op eration at the mouth of the river, and the Chinook made only a few trips out to sea. It Is not expected that the dredge will be able to accomplish much until spring. Marino Notes. The steamer Hissalo went aground at Bwan Island Thursday night during tho prevalence of a heavy fog. Tbe Oklahoma pulled the steamer back In to deep water. The fog waa so thick the vessel could not follow the channel. BU SINES WANTS BE KNOWN.
