HOODOO HITS
French Dark General Neumayer
Forced Into Buenos Ayres , '
.for Repairs.'-
THOUGHT TO HAVE STRUCK
- BAD GALE OFF THE. HORN
cft . Hamburg for Portland Last
- August anS Was Due Before Christ
' mas Not Expected Now Until Lat
ter Part of Winter.
Meyer, Wilson Co. received cable
Bra m last night which Indicates that
hoodoo la still hovering over the cargo
ships bound from Furope to ' Portland.
The message cam from Captain Drill, t
of the t rench bark General Neumayer
and stated that his veeiiel was forced to
put Into Buf nos Ayres In a leaking con
dition. -
-Thorough repairs will - be. neces
sary," concludes the skipper, "and It la
probable that the cargo Is partly dam
aged." . -
No additional particulars have been
received concerning the mishap, or the
point at which the vessel got disabled.
But it Is supposed that she ran Into a
gale Off the Morn and after being In an
almost seaworthy condition beat back
up the coast,, where it would be possi
ble for her to get assistance and re
ceive needed repairs. Just how long she
will be forced to remain there Is not
known. ,
The General Neumayer left Hamburg
for Portland en August , with a full
cargo of cement conaigned' "to Meyer,
Wilson Co. of . Portland. When I
days out she was spoken In 14 degrees
north latitude and SI west longitude.
At .that time she reported all well.' but
It Is evident that she was making a slot
passage, aa she should have been down
a far as the equator at least. ,
- This Is only one more ship added "to
the long lhtt which neve got Into
trouble this season while rounding Cape
Horn. Shippers say It Is the worst year
for accidents to square-riggers bound
for Portland In the history of the Pa
rine coast. It Is explained that almost
one out of- every three vessels which
luive called from Europe for the. Colum
bia! river this year have been more or-l
less disabled before the voyages were
more than half complete. - While most
.of the accidents occurred In the treach
erous waters off the , southernmost
point of South. America,, a number of
vessels fell victims toi the elements in
other localities one going wrong near
the Falkland Islands and another having
to put Into Cape Town, South Africa,
. Had she not met with an accident the
General Neumayer probably would have
reached here before" Christmas. but
under the; circumstances It is now be
lieved that- shw will not put In. an ap
pearance before the latter part of the
winter. . ' .- " ' '.

He rushed down the ladder which was
hanging over the side of the ship. : The
vessel was oat tn the stream a short
distance and evidently he .Intended to
swim to the shore. - i-it . v
, But he was detected and sailors were
'on him before he could .carry out his
plan. When he wss grabbed by .his
pursuers, the little brown man fought
like a tiger, clawing and biting every
one who touched him. Finally he was
overpowered and carried back on board
the steamer. After being tied securely
the local authorities were communicated
with and the prisoner wss tsken to the
county Jall.wher he will be kept until
the steamer Is . ready to start on the
return trip to Japan.- '
., This Is the second effort the stow
away has mads to escape. While the
steamer was ensuring the harbor the
Jap suddenly disappeared. It was
thought that he had Jumped overboard
and swam ashore. Two days later h
emerged from his hiding place In the

' Judge" C. E. Wolverton will 4sk his
seat on the federal bench early next
week, without waiting for the senate to
confirm his appointment. - This decision
was resohed this morning sfter confer
ence with Circuit Judge W. B. Gilbert,
the accumulation of business in the dis
trict court making It highly Important
that the new appointee should snter on
his duties as soon as possible.
"With the exception of some eastern
Oregon litigation all 'cases pending be
fore the state supreme court which
have been argued and submitted wui
be disposed of before I lesvo that
court." said Judge Wolverton. "Decis
ions will be hsnded down next Monday
and early tn the week I shall begin my
duties as district Judgs."
When asked when he would appoint
the clerk of the district court Judge
Wolverton replied:
. I shall make no appointment until X'
myself have been confirmed by the sen
ate." snd b added aftsr a moment's
pause, "and probably the appointment
will not be made Immediately even
thn."-
While Judge Wolverton did not name
the day when he will Uk hi place on
th federal bench. It is thought that, as
Monday Is the day for handing down the
supreme court's decisions, he probably
will be Installed as United States dis
trict ludg on Tuesday. A great ac
cumulation of business . awaits bin.
About 10 bankruptcy cases have been
filed In the district court since Judge
Bellinger's death six months ago ana in
some of thess th litigants have suf
fered much Inconvenience because there
wss no Judgs to give tbera a hearing.
Resides these new cases there Is much
old business demanding attention, both
In bankruptcy and In admiralty.
