greater bulk waa drawn directly from
the country Immediately adjacent to
this city.
The lumber ahlpmenta were particu
larly heavy both for foreign nd, coast

31,134,411 feet. Of this quantity 11.
934,427 went to porta along the Cali

of equalling the entire output of Last

The grain shipments for the month
make a good showing, cloae to 600,000
bushels having been dispatched from
Portland docks since the first of Sep
tember. Large quantities were also
sent to San Francisco on the Hartiman
liners, ao that all told at least 600,000

largest shipment for the month having
been made gn tthe Portland-Asiatic
liner Arable, which leaves down this
afternoon, the flour stowed away be
neath her hatches being valued at $21.
06$. There are several large tramp steam

The oriental liner Arabia Is sched

and commenced discharging cargo at
Montgomery dock No. 2 thla morning.
Her officers report having had a stormy
trip from Hongkong to Japan, the
China aea having been badly agitated
by typhoons which are frequent there
at tbla time of the year. At one time
the Aragonla waa forced to aeek shel
ter In a cove a ahort distance north of
Hongkong. The barometer went very
low and Captain Ernst took a tip on
what was approaching. A few hours
later the sea was laahed Into foam by
one of the aevereat blowa ever experi
enced In that part of the world. Thla
occurred a few daya before Hongkong
was partly wrecked by a typhoon and
the officers of the Aragonla believe it
was the same blow that caused them to
run for safety. The big liner rode her
anchor for 10 hours before venturing
out to ..aea, but even then she was
tosaed about fearfully until hlmoat In
eight of Japan. '
The Aragonla brought a rather light
cargo, consisting of the usual lines of
goods brought here from the orient.
She will take out one of the biggest
cargoes of flour ever shipped from here

of officers is the same as before ex

"There are about 7,000,080 feet of

wouldn't be surprised if the mlllmen
