Scarcity ' of " American Bottoma
Promptt Enactment of Special Law
Counteracting Certain Proviaiona of
Lair Governing Shipping. ' ; ,
- Collector of Customs Patterson was
Informed this morning- by circular
Utter from the department of commerce
and labor that for three more yeara
foreign bottoma will bo permitted to
carry freight and - passengers between
f orte In the United Btatee and the Pbtl
pplne lalanda. . Thla permission : has
been granted by a apoolal law almilar
to that which expired on the Brat -of
July laat, and which counteracted the
regular eoaatwlao . law - under which
ahtpplng between the etatee and the
laland possessions waa placed when the
lalanda becama a part, under tha atara
and, stripes, . -
The special law baa already gone Into
affect and will continue in force until
July 11, 10, It will mean great deal
to Portland ahlppera, lumber and (ram
exportare especially,- bacauao' with only
American bottoma permitted to handle,
the trade :es provided by tha coaetwiae
law, they are practically barred from
competing . for. laland - buaineaa , owing
to tha tack' of available American bot
toma. ' Several contracta for auppllea
of feed and lumber hare bean loot by
Portland Arms recently1' because - tha
government inalatcd ' upon the mate
rial being carried 01: American bottoma.
Thla threw the buaineaa to the Puget
aound blddara becauaa one of toe lines
plying oiif of Seattle touchea at the
laland porta. ... "
The expiration of the old special law
would have been a aerloua blow to
Portland exporters of lumber, because
they would have been compelled to en
gage American earriera only and these
ere exceptionally, ecarce at tha preaent
time, owing to the heavy demand In
the coast wlee trade. The fact of the
matter. la that without the reenactment
of the special law lumber ahlpmenta to
the lalanda would have been kept-down
to a email percentage. -
The new law - provldee that oa and
after July 11, l0, no merchandise ex
cept euppllae for the army- and navy
hall be transported by sea, tinder pen
alty of forfeiture thereof, between porta
of the United Stattea and porta or placea
In the Philippine archipelago,, directly or
via foreign porte, or for any part of the
voyage, in any other vessel than a ves
sel of the United Btatee. - Tha carrying
of passengers la also prohibited by for

STEERED FOR A WHALE.'.
Orteatal Uaee sTnxeantU rlngg Strange
, "weis rroaa the Seat ., "
When in.mldoeean between the coast
of Japan and the 'mouth of -the Colum
bia river tha lookout on tha Oriental
liner Numantla elghted what he thought
waa a vessel floating bottom up. Hun-
. dreds ef sea bird a were swarming about
the air over the object., and thla 'led
. to the belief that possibly aome awful
disaster had : occurred, and - the big
e liner's ..course waar banged,, so as to
bring bar close to the aoene. ,. When
.'within, half a mile It waa discovered
through the powerful glaasee that what
' appeared to be the hull. of .a vessel was
only tha ' carcass of a whale that had
- turned over on his back and breathed
bis last. The sea birds were having a
feast, and their piercing ecreaina of
delight could be plainly heard, on the
. Numantla. . v
The Numantla arrived In the harbor
. at 10 o'clock laat night. She com
menced discharging freight . at Mont
gomery dock No. S this morning, and
. will continue for several days, - because
, eome 1.000 tone of freight are stowed
away beneath the hatches. The liner
will probably shift to Alaska dock thla
afternoon, after having discharged tha
' email quantity of freight booked for the
, east Among the cargo for Portland la
11,000 barrels oement, 1,000 bales of
gunnies, 160 tons paper filling, 100 tone
sulphur. 4,000 chests of tea, a large
Quantity of matting and general mer
chandise and Oriental curios.
The run - from Tokohama waa une
ventful, except for the alghtlng of the i
dead whale end two steamers, v the
- Identity -of - which could - not be- made
out. Occasional toga ware encountered
upon approaching thla aide' of the big
tea, but they did not delay, the steamer,
" tor she completed the run in the usual
time of IT days. Arfog bung over the
entrance to the Columbia river when
ehe arrived at the lightship Tuesday
afternoon, so the pilot decided to re
main outside over night, .
Colonel," the big . St. Bernard dog,
sent over a' few months ago by James
Froesner to Japan, returned on the Nu
mantla. ' He looked tired and atck after
hla experience In the orient, and Cap
tain Feldtmann saya the big fellow waa
unable to' stand the climate over there.
. It Was too hot for him, and he appeared
to auffer greatly" from homesickness.
He grew , thla and refused to eat for
.several days. No one seemed, to under
stand what waa the matter With him
until someone finally . suggested that
: -"Colonel", waa dying from a broken
heart, and It waa decided to send him
home at once upon the arrival, of the
Numantla.
Speaking of conditions In the orient.
', the officers aay that while tha Japanese
: are making strenuous offorte to eap
' ture a good ' deal of the Increasing
coastwise traffic, the Europeans are
, etlll holding the lead, and will continue
to do so. All of the more Important
Japanese vessele are manned by Euro
pean officers,.-they say, and It will
be many yeara - before the Japanese
: and Chinese will be given entire com
mend of large liners. .
