tonnage bound for a Pacific Northwest
port and available for train goading at

A feature of which the Oregon metrop

that the tonnage headed this way 1
more than three times the amount bound
for all of the Puget Sound ports com

that of the corresponding date last year

Thu It will be seen that durln the
past five;. years there has been headed
' a fleet of approximately TO vessels more
, or enough to move one whole average
, season's shipments from the entire Ps
; ciflc Northwest to Europe snd the Ori
ent for this port than for the several
Puget Sound porta combined,
r Indications now are unmistakably
pointing to Portland shipping more
wheat this aeason than ever before In
! Its history and . one feature of It will
! be the large number of steamers en
gaged In the traffic The only problem
. now confronting the shippers is the car
shortage for without cars to bring the
wheat to tide water It will be Impossible
to dispatch the vessels as they come for
! tbelr cargoes.
From now on until late next spring
Portland's water front will present
scenes of the greatest activity and the
: army of longshoremen snd grainhandler
will have to be strengthened materially
although there are now more than 2,009
' men engaged in various capacities along
the warehouses on the front.

Bristol Bay, are suffering from want of

have already been picked up by one of
the many government vessels in that
vicinity and that they will soon be
brought to one of the coast ports.
"The shores of all of the Alaska pen
insula abound with all sorts of game
and near Nelson lagoon there Is an In
dian fishing village," said Captain Wer
llch in discussing advisability of send
ing a special vessel to the rescue of
the survivors of whom there are about
250. "There is no good reason why
one of the government vessels about to
return rrom the north Bhould not call
and pick up the survivors since undoubt
edly the news of them being there has
spread an along the coast. Certainly
something should be done for the un
fortunate ones who found themselves
cast upon the beach, but I feel quite
confident that they are on board some
vessel by this time. There are many
smaller craft plying among the islands
of Bristol bay and they could easily go
to the assistance of the shipwrecked.

Saturday. September 28
G. W. ( Bevcr, before leaving Goldfield, completed the main
shaft to 145 feet, with cross-cut of 140 feet, finding large bodies
of ore running up to $140 per ton with small stringers running as
high as $5,000. Before departing he let a contract for an addition
al 100 feet of shaft where he expects to encounter a bettergrade of
ore. The company has given a lease on 16 acres of the Butte Boys'
ground to a Goldfield mining company. They will begin sinking
at once. The company will push work with all possible speed. As
soon as waterisncountered the Butte Boys company will install
a mill to handle their ore, which is 'free milling. Tne prospect for
a great mine is equal, in the .opinion of some of the best mining
men in Goldfield, tp. anything that has ever shoVn up in that dis
trict. G. WV Beyer, manager, will return to Goldfield shortly,
to resume charge of the mines; as well as the Central Mining and
