Unavoidable Delays in Securing Possession of New Eilers Piano . House Premises Has Piled Up ; Fine New Pianos That Must Be Sold Cut Prices and Pay- 'merits as Best Suits Buyers, to Move . Them at One 353 Washington Street the 'New " Number. -.- Buildlnc ooeratlons In the late Fall cannot be carried on as speedily and ad vantageously as tney can earner in tne season. In Suite ol tne most intelligent contractors tne new Eilers Plana House has not yet been gotten ready. But the pianos are here and we -have got to sell. them. , ' As announced in yesterday's papers, while the first floor la in a very much unfinished condition, we. have managed to arrange it an that business can be to arranga it an that business can i - cafrle, - on eomfortiiblyTSo w-are-g ins to sell D tan os aaaln out of the new Kllers Piano House, .6S-35S Washing ton street.. We realise that only by means of the most extraordinary Inducements can we sell our pianos under such unfavorable conditions, lt'a an easy matter for us to sell our pianos when they sre die- flayed in coxy and fitting surroundings, t's an altogether different thing to ask you to come into a great big uncomplet ed, barn-Ilk .place,- with no other at traction probably than the great big new olate Klaaa show windows. We know there is only one way for us to aeit. lots or pianos now... we nave a termined upon that way; : : We present tomorrow morning, the verv finest of hlah-errade instruments. Beautiful Webers and Haseltons, of New York. ' The now famous Kimball, Chicago's greatest piano, and then the finest and most glorious of them all. the Chlckerlng of Boston, and there are also beautiful Hobart M. - Cables and Crown-Orchestral pianos and 'Marshall eb Wendells and dosens of others, each make the very finest in 'its respective cutss. And all of these pianos were specially select ed for display during the opening -week of "the bigger and the be,.er and the busier .fellers Piano 'House. ..; s: . ... ,. - - - We Cut the Price.- -, But that Is not all. We not only present- the very choicest of instruments, but we are offering them at a price far below the usual retail selling price and at a figure that will barely cover the factory cost and freight. It is not a question of profit-making with us now. We must get rid of ths goods. Then, again, ws shall be glad to have you arrange the matter of payments to suit yourself. - Everything will be marked at the actual cash cost. But any piano ' will be obtainable at the cash figure plus simple interest on terms of payment to suit any reason able buyer. If you cannot pay all cash, pay ev -little 'now and a few dollars eeery month. 1-f you ere) wot prepared-: to pay any money , now, come in any way. We will send you a piano and you can pay when ready. .. , Perhaps YouH Rent One. If .you are not in a position to buy a piancP ail, come in ana rent one. we nhallMnarae no cartaae to any one rent ing a piano sis month or longer. If you wtli rent a piano three months we will ask you to pay but one-half of the cartage charges. We must get rid of a lot of pianos quickly, and it is not going to be our fault If we don't. In SDlte of tha wonderfully, heavy-gajejuirihelhjgll jrtndajwr-aesSThe. CoJumbtaUja, our big wholesale corner Thirteenth and Northrup streets. is full to overflowing. The pianos in tended for our October reoDenlna are In, the November shlrlmenta are in, and December shipments are soon due to ar rive. Of genuine Chlckerlng pianos alone there are four monster carloads, aver 4S,000 worth, to. come within the week, and there are Just as many Webers, and still more Weber Pianola Pianos, and carloads upon carloads of every other kind of high-class instru ments on the way. You see the fix we are in. - Bo, even though It will very much upset piano conditions temporarily;, we are going' to simply - slaughter our pianos until our store is definitely in snaps ana reopenea. We hone it will be but a short time. We surely will terminate the sale the moment matters are arranced- - Tib upstairs. Is to be. arranged firaUi while we are selling pianos in the un completed downstairs. Then the down stairs will . be finished and weir- sell upstairs. And the work will be rushed forward now with sll possible haste. Here Are Some Prices. If you are thinking of getting a piano coma In today or Tuesday. Ws had occasion once to sacrifice a lot of regu lar 1275 pianos for flM. We said we thought they never could sgaln be ob tained at such a low figure. But la our present predicament we are going to sell forty-seven of these now for 1177 each, nay, 117 or less down, and f, yes, even 1 5, a month. All of our standard $428 and ' S4G4 pianoa are going to go for 28 and 124 and some of tne plainer casee can be had for 12(2. Sams terms aa the above If you like We will fake actual factory cost and freight for some very fancy and most costly highest grade uprights that were ordered especially lor , tne Portland trade. -There' are some choice pianos in mission design oases among them. Ws don't want to take chances carrying any oi these over the Holidays into Uie next year. Terms of lit a month, yes 111 a .month, or say 140 or 150 svsry three months, buys them. Bear In mind that everything sold by Xllsrs ,iano. House Is posUlvelywarr ranted, no matter wnat ine price paio. The store will be 'kept open Tuesdsy night to accommodate those wishing to select a Piano for Thanksgiving. Re member the new number, 8i3-Ju& Wash ington street, corner. Park. ...

BRITISH COLUMBIA MILLS TOO, ARE BENEFITED Steamer Duneric Will Carry Lumber From Victoria to San Francisco at About Half the Rate Charged From Washington and Oregon Ports. .Lumber freights between Oregon and Washington ports and San-Franolsco and other points along the California coast "havs-Jumped from 17. SO to $1.60 and tl a thousand feet and the result la that brokers find It profitable to en gage forelgh craft and ship lumber from ths British Columbia mills and pay the duty of II per thousand. Foreign bottoms are willing to carry lumber from British Columbia to San Francisco for ff a thousand, so that sven addjapa tbe dttt y, the lumber csn be laid do" In Ban Francisco for II less than that shipped from the American ports. This, It is believed, will throw sn enormous amount of - business to the British Columbia mills and also Induoe a big fleet of foreign craft to engage In the trade of hauling umbcr on the coast. As stated in The Journal a few dayiago, the British steamer Duneric, now in this port dlschsrglng-a cargo ef ooal from Nanslmo, has been chartered by - Frank Waterhouso a Co. to carry lumber on the coast. She will leave Portland in a few days for Victoria, B. C, to load for Baa Franolsco, ' and - the probability Is that she will be retained In the service for a long time. The Duneric will carry about 1,000,000 feet of lumber so that even at IS a thousand feet ehe will prove a big money maker, for her owners. Shipowners as well as dealers la lum- ber are of the opinion- that the high frelghta will continue for a long time and this Is tempting capital Into bot toms. Dosens - of .steam schooners would sow. be tn . the course of con struction to every one being built but for the fact that ship carpenters sre not available and the yards prepared for such work unable to handle more than what they have on hand. Old packeta that for years havs lain Ides begging business havs been turned into big money earners by placing them In the lumber trade, and old tuba, long ago relegated to the bone yards, are being refitted for the remarkably profit able business. COLUMBIA ARRIVES starrlman Bast rraaolaoo Unsr X sports Uneventful Voyage. .
