" - . y You are naturally familiar with tha statistics on marina commerce, not only here, but at every other port In the United States, and It la our pleasure to -present "only such faots as are' corrob orated by government reporta. Portland occupies a unique. Interesting and commanding position in tha develop ment of tha foreign and flomestlo trade of tha United States, as she is tha prin cipal port, metropolis chief market and commercial center of tha great area drained by tha Willamette and Colum bia rivers, tha two chief stream a com mercially between tha Mississippi river and the Paclflo ocean territory am ply able to give aupport to five millions of people when fully developed and for these and many other reaaona there Is no subject touching the Improvemnt of our rivers and harbors, tba extension of tha American merchant marine jot any other similar subject having to do with tha In creased trade of tha United States, In which Portland la not and will not In tha future bo an Important factor. . Three Oreat Staple. - Lumber, wheat and flour are tha three great ataplea whloh furnish tha bulk of the aeagolng traffic from this and other ports of tha Paclflo northwest, and In these three commodities roruana occu pies a commanding position.

Ten of tha 'big wheat carriers dis patched from Portland showed an aver age of mora than 110,000 bushels of wheat each, as follows: The Lime Pranch, 160.TI1 bushels; the Langbank, 121.911: the Olenturret, Jlg.iss; the wu- helmlna, 114.17; the Teonkal, I0S.028; the Pak Ling. 101.192; tha Puritan, fOI, X9; the Hyaon, lS.ai; the Elba, ISO,- 400; tha Palatine, 187.S40; total.

Ten ves sels have been dispatched from this port carrying an average of 1,210,000 feet of lumber each to make this mora convincing, wa append the exact statis tics: The Oceano, 1.944.

The largeat cargo of flour aver dis patched went, from . this port on the steamship Algoa, and amounted to 86,- 276 barrels, breaking tha world's record by mora than 15.000 barrels. Sixteen steamers have left thla port with oar goea In excess of . 10.000 . barrels, tha average being In. excess of (5,000 bar rels. Tha steamers and tha amount of flour carried are as follows: ' Algoa, 85, 178 barrels; Indrasamha, 81,821; I nd ra vel II, 61.187;, Indravelll, 17.877; Indra velll, 14,184: Indrasamha, (2,172; Jdra pura. 12,178; Eva. 52.000;.

Portland, ad stated above. Is Interested in the report of the merohant marina commission, as Its report and the ac tion that congress wlU take upon It will be of great Interest to every port In the United Btatea. This otty, as a combined manufacturing and wholesale distribu ting point, la doing aa annual business today exceeding 8200,000,000. To refer briefly again to tha water ahlpmenta on th Columbia river, tber were laat year shipped 174,808,66 feet of lumber, and over 86,000.000 feet of thla went to foreign porta. Gratifying aa is this record. It will ba eclipsed during the preaent year, aa the flguree for the first alx months of 1804, on water ahlpmenta alone, ahowed a gain of over 10,000.000 feet aa com pared rlth th corresponding period of 108. A member of thla committee, to UlustrM "" foma ot statistics, ba figured out that Portland - shipped enough lumber last year to build a plank walk three feat wide clear-around tba aarth. - Thanking you, gentleman, for kindly listening to th) report, wa are, vary KDGAR W.WRIGHT. . TOM RICHARDSON, Special -Committee. ' Congresaman Humphrey What per centage of Portland'a shipping Is dona under tha American flag? Mr. Rlohardson-rPracucaiiy none. , Coastwise Trade, W. A. Meara, repreaentlng tha trans portation committee of,, the chamber of commerce, gave facta concerning tha coastwise trade. He said th railroads by combination have held up tb freight rates between thla coaat and New Tork, and that tha steamship lines operating In connection with the Panama railway have made rates correspondingly. Tha 20 per cent lower water rata la really no cheaper than th raU rata, as tha 10 per cent Is absorbed by marine Insur ance and transfer charges at Panama, Ue said: , . - "We have Information that th Paclflo Mall oompany la, alnca the sate of th canal and railway property t th gov ernment, tiring to secure a continuance rof their preaent concession and are us ing all possible tnnuenc wiu ui cans, commission to this end. We are here to ask your commission to us your in fluence to prevent a continuance of this concession, for it Is due to th qo-ope ra tion between the Paclflo Mall and tha railway companies that tha people of th Pactflo coast are unable to secure lower freight rates or competition." Senator Mitchell, who was present, asked -Mr. -Meara to stat th soure of hla Information as to eftorta that are being made to aecure continuance of th Paclflo Mall company's concession. Mr. Mears gav hla authority as that of the head of a San Francisco freight bu reau who ia prominent and reliable au thority on that aubject Ernest Laldlaw took lasne with Mrr Burns and Mr. Richardson on tha etate mont that ther are no American ships In Portland' foreign trade. H ald tha amount of lumber sent abroad from Portland In American veesele Is very large In th course of a year. Ha ad mitted it wns In sailing vessels. Mr. Burns replied that while he is at pres ent shipping a cargo of lumber to China In an American veasel ther I but a very small percentage ahlpped from Portland In such vessel. An exchange of facta and view followed between Mr. lJaidlaw and Chairman Gallinger on the aubject of fre hlp. Mr. Jam law con tended that Americana ahould be al lowed particularly : to -buy and build sailing vessels and tramp stearoara anywhere and bring them under th American flag. He said that American Iron ship builder would hardly notice a differono In their . business a they would be so busy building naval vessels to protect th ocean commerce that wa could , build up under a free ship policy. He cited tha French merchant marina as a auccessful ax ample of a fre ship policy. Chairman Gallinger replied, giving figures t show that under the fre ship policy th French merohant marina tonnage ha decreased during th last few years, and he stated that Germany la now paying mall aubsldle and discriminat ing in other way In favor of .German ahlpe. - ' Alfred Tucker pok as an Importer and favored tha placing of a duty on foreign built ships when brought under the American flag, and no other obstacle to their becoming American ahlpe. He M there was no reason why such an article as a ship should not be natural ised aa ara all other article or import He said so far as tha American sailor I concerned, hi wage ar about th same as those paid on British, French and German ships. With the opening of the Panama canal vast quantltiea of lumber will b carried by that rout to th east, and restriction should be such that thla lumber will be carried Jn American bottoms. Ha said: "American capital should b permitted to buy hlp wherever they can be got cheapest, end duty levied upon their tonnage when admitted to enter the trade under th American flag. Not a prohibitive tariff, but one to equalise th difference to some extent In cost of pro duction. I favor only a limited tariff." Congressman Splght Do you mean that a tariff against the ship that would be high enough to make Ita cost, after entry Into American trade, equal to the eoet of th same hlp If built In thla eountryT . 1 .' . Aid XaU Una. inr. Tucker Certainly not Such a tariff as that I would regard as prohibi tive. My Idea. Is that something could be done by the government to help estab lish line of mall, and passenger steam ers between home arid foreign ports, and continued until sucV lHie aeour trad upon which to base a regular business.
