Beainnln September 1 the freight chargea (or the tranaportatlon of wheat and flour from Paelflo eoaat porta to Yokohama, Kobe, . NagaaaJtl. - Mojl and Honckone; will M II I ton, while tne rate to Shanghai haa been fixed at IB. 10 a ton. Thla decision waa arrWed at yesterday afternoon, and . waa voted upon by the management of the various lines Interested by mean or wire mes sages. The proposition carried unanimously. The old rate, which will oe in effect until the first of next month. Is f 4 a ton. It Is announced at the local office of the Portland A Aslatlo company that the advance waa decided upon aolely on account at tha. acuta war situation. Tha lines entering Into the agreement are the Canadian Pacific tha . Nlppun Tnsen Klsha. - the Boston Towboat A Steamship company, the China Mutual, the Portland A Aslatlo, the Pacific Mall and the Occidental A Oriental Steam ship company. ' , It la declared at the office or tne local company that alnce tha danger of the capture of veaaels haa become so great there la no longer any profit to be realised in carrying wheat and flour. which are the principal ehlproente. at the present rate. Tha explanation Is made that tha extra freight charges will - not be more than enouam the additional Insurance which .bar to be taken out on account of the war, Exporters are pt the opinion tnai the higher tariff la going to be the mean of curtailing the shipment to the orient materially. After October 1 a duty of 10 cent a barrel will be Im posed by the government on ail nour going Into Japan. When the freight rstes are Increased and tha Japanese tariff goes Into effect It Is said that the two extra, chargea will be the means of making It Impossible to export any more flour to the land of the mikado. Hence. It Is argued that Russia will soon have no further excuse for captur ing steamers bound from the Pacific coast, on the ground that-they are carrying contraband of war; One year ago the ratea for transport ing flour- from the Paelflo ooast to the to II a ton. But the altuatlon then was entirely different from that of the nrexmnt on. All the leading companies combined their strength ana introaucea the low tariff aohedule for the purpose of forcing oft the run the steamers operated by the China Commercial com pany. After the rate war naa ragea several months and . resulted In great losses for all concerned a truce of peace was declared.- By the terms or the egreement the China commercial freighters were to continue carrying coolies from China to Mexico, but they were to bring no freight on the return trip. This plan la ttill being adhered to by the line against wnicn ma ngni waa made. It I expected that tha Union Oil coril pany'a tank at Portsmouth will bo ready for tha reception of fuel oil by Tuesday.

Big wheat shipment are still being made from this port to California. The Aurella Is taking on a cargo or too tons of wheat at the Irvlngton dock for San Francisco. The steamer Chlco Is en route up the coast to Portland, and on the return trip will take out a full cargo of wheat. The steamship Leelanaw, which will arrive next week from tha Bay City, will oad for tha return trip Wptn a Dig smpmeni or in. cereal, one will carry in the neighborhood of 1.000 tons In addition to -other freight. Shipper say that nearly all the wheat going to California la to be used for milling purpoees, and very little. If any of It, will be exported. As compared with former years the -cereal crop In southern Oregon . I rather light, and many are of the opinion that about aa much wheat will be sent down there this year from Portland as will be shipped to foreign markets. At the present market quotation It la claimed It will be Impossible to export much grain to Europe this year from the Pacific coast The price of tha cereal Is considerably higher locally than at Liverpool and freight ratea are also higher than they were laat year, consequently the outlook la anythlatf but encouraging for the exporters.
