NO CARS; ES HAY HAVE TO CLOSE Shortage Causes Great Loss to Farmers,' Commission Men - and Lumber Dealers. Ths car shortage in . Oregon, has reached a point where .so out - of Port land's Industries sre threatened with the necesaity of shutting down because they cannot get cars la which to ahlp their producla to points outside ths state. The Portland Lumber company haa taken off Its nlsht ahlft. putting about 160 men out of employment, the management of ths Oreron ft Washington Lumber com pany Is considering the advisability of shutting down and commission men are complaining that their business and the farming industry . are suffering heavy loss . because it is impossible to ship Oregon products to points In the middle west snd southeast .at this time when the demand Is strong. Local traffic officials of ths Harrl man lines are unablo to give any relief, as the supply of cars of the entire sys tem is far Insufficient to meet the de mands of increased business on the Pa ciflo coast. . It is said the llarriman lines own but 1,06 refrigerator cars, and-at this season of the year it la un safe to attempt shipment of farm or orchard products over the mountains to the east T ordlnarr cars -becsussor danger from freeslng. The private car companies have to be drawn upon for cars and high rates of toll are exacted.

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKERS END SUCCESSFUL MEETING The Multnomah county SunQay School convention closed last night after two days of sessions at Grace Methodist church.

He also conducted them down narrow flights of stairs Into un derground tenements where white men, seldom enter. - ... At 24S Taylor street the Inspection started. The ' policeman guided the party Into a tenement where nearly 10 Chinamen live. They occupy quarters which would not be large enough for an ordinary family. At 19S Second street ths conditions were even worse. One opium den sfter another was discovered with doseas of trlf glials puffing awaf at tl ml r plpta or sleeping from the effects of the drug. The doors of several rooms were srranged for barricading and equipped With signal bells. Sleeping apartments Were crowded and -had no means for lighting or ventilation. - . In every place visited ths rooms were redecked In order to economise for space. In No. 13 there were 60 China men living in one club amidst the most unsanitary conditions Imaginable. It was even worse at lfl Second street. Ths plumbing was" defective and ths stench In the rear of ths buildings was unbearable to one unused to It. A white woman wa found eating with seven Chinamen in a small room at 110 Second street, snd at 1S7 the patrolman conducted the health officer to an underground tenement, where the rooms were cold and damp and un ven tilated and without any light, but where doxens of Chinamen were found In every room. t ' - .
