th. mnt valuable portion. It alone
amounting to about $200,000. The lum
ber cargo of the Oermanlcus is valued
at about $40,000.
Tha Oermanlcus belongs .to Christian
Anderson of Hamburg, one Of .the larg
est individual steamboat owners in tha
world. Prior to tha war between Russia
and Japan his fleet numbered fifteen
vessels, of tha Oermanlcus type. Two
of them. -the Severus and Romolus, were
captured by tha Japanese, four were
sold to tha Russians for transports ana
two were purchased by tha Japanese
for the same purpose.
- Captain Berndt was master of the Se
verus when she was overtaken by a
Japanese cruiser after having completed
a run of 11,000 miles and when within
$00 miles of Vladivostok, her destina
tion. Tha Severus was caught In the
Ice or she would have eluded her cap-
tors. Tha pursuing cruise too stack
fast, four miles in tha ) wake of - tha
tramp, but tha ice broke at ( daylight
and It was impossible to steal away af
ter having attracted the attention i of
tha vigilant Japanese. Captain. Berndt
asserts ha would hava managed to. get
away had the Ice broken during the
cover of darkness because the Severus
showed no lights on the entire voyage.
After having lost the Severus, Cap
tain Berndt was given command f the
Oermanlcus which at that time was at
Kobe. Japan, and the very next day she
caugnt Ore and had to be sunk in the

CARRY LUMBER
TO SAH DIEGO
Dollar Steamers Engaged by
' Benson Logging
, Company.
PRESC0TT MILL TO
FURNISH CARGOES
Craft Will Ply Continually Between
Columbia RiTcr and California
Port Daring Greater Part of Sum-
mer -First Cargo Next Month.
The Benson Logging company has
chartered tha steamers Melville Dollar
and Harold Dollar to carry lumber from
Prescott on tha lower Columbia to San
Diego this summer, each steamer to
make several trips. The first one to
arrive will reach Prescott next month.
Several weeks ago the Benson Log-
ring company awarded the Beaver Lum
er company at Prescott a contract to
cut from 6,000,000 to 10.000,000 feet of
lumber from logs supplied from the
logging concern's camp at Clatskanfe
and the steamers were engaged this
week to carry the lumber to San Diego,
where the company has a large lumber
yard In addition to a sawmilL
Tha steamers are capable of carrying
about 1,000,000 feet each trii, which
means : that they will be occupied for
several months. Coming north they
will bring the chains used In the con
struction of the log rafts that the com
pany sent to San Diego last summer.
About 100 -tons of chains are used In
each raft, 1 and there are now several
hundred tons at San Diego.
Tha - Benson Logging company has
secured large waterfront facilities at
San - Diego and is building a wharf
where lumber can be-transferred from
the ships to tha railroad cars with very
Httta expense. Most of the lumber will
find Its way into the Interior of Cali
fornia and Mexico.
The Harold Dollar and Melville Dol.
lar are owned by tha Dollar Steamship
company, which also owns tha British
steamer Bessie Dollar now in this port
under the British flag, but the smaller
craft are under tne American xiu.
Th Tin mill Dollar Is a wooden vessel
of the steam schooner type and wan
built at Faimaven, caiirornia, in iv.
The Melville Dollar is an Iron vessel
built at St. Clair, Michigan. In 1803,
and launched under the name of John C
Hnnnl.
In addition to these lumber cargoes
the company wUI send four or five log
rafts from Clatskante to be cut into
lumber at the Ban Diego mm. un oi
tha rafts is now in course of construc
tion. It will be sent south In June
when there is practically no danger of
Interference from storms.

from here about II months ago to carry
supplies and building material lor uie
railroad being built into tha interior by
the Guggenhelmer Interests.
Tha Willamette Iron A Steel Works
constructed the machinery for the Chot
na and the boat has so pleased the own
ers that he ooncern has been asked to
figure on a duplicate. The boat Is to
be ready next spring, and it la therefore
considered likely that the contract will
be let at an early data The hull for
the Chetna was built by Joseph Supple,
and it was shipped up in knockdown
form. A crew of shipbuilders was sent
north to put It together, and It was
successfully launched in the Copper
river after a few weeks of hard work
in the snow. .
The Willamette Iron & Steel Works

gaged tne Portland tuiipDuiiding com-
tA KilIM hull It K. ..I

BATTLES TELL SECRET.
Captain Berndt of Steamer Germani-
cus Discovers Deception.
Captain W. B. Berndt of the German
steamer Gennanlcus says he wouldn't
mind having water turned Into wine,
but ha fails to ODnreclate the 1oVa of
having beer turned into water, especially
wnen no nas 10 pay tor tne Deer.
Captain Berndt has been considerably
annoyed of late when calling upon his
siewara tor a Doiue or beer, now and
then ha has found the properly labeled
bottles containing water Instead of the
amber colored brew of hops and malt
Prior to coming here last Sunday the
Germanlcus SDent a ceunle weeks at
Aberdeen loading a part cargo of lum
per, ana during mat urn tne steward
then employed was having more than
his share of cheer. For days In a
stretch ha appeared with' a bad list
and Captain Berndt finally refused to
give him more money. This method of
warrare produced no result however,
and so the skipper, who has visited ev
ery spot on the globe excepting Ireland
and the Black Sea during his 60 years
of sailing, concluded there, must be
something wrong somewhere.
The Intoxicated steward was told one
evening to be on band early the fol
lowing morning to "take stock, suspi
cion pointing to there being a shortage
in ths stores. That was the straw that
broke the camel's back, for between
dusk and dawn the steward made him
self scarce aboard ship and he . was
seen no more. -
Before leaving for Portland Captain
Berndt engaged a new steward and
ordered a hasty inspection of the stores.
He complimented himself upon having
gotten rid of the thirsty one without
loss of tha beer supply and Incidentally
began to reproach himself for perhaps
having wrongfully suspected an Inno
cent man, But the secret could not
keep and this is the tale the bottles
have told In their own mute way:
Tha resourceful steward In enjoying
the baer refilled tha bottles with water
so carefully as to make detection lm-
f osslble, even to the extent of leaving a
Ittle foam near the cork, and then
placed them In their respective lockers.
The-deception was not discovered until
the steamer arrived here.

CURRENT gTOPS WORK.I
Direr Engaged to Search River Bot
tom for Lost Machinery.
Owing to tha swift current in tha
river it has been impossible for tha
diver to recover all tha pieces of ma
chinery 'lost from tha deck of the
steamer Annie Comings when she col
lided with tha French bark Europe off
Linnton about three weeks sgo. and the
work of searching for them-has been
temporarily abandoned. . . - M
- Several pieces have been located and
It Is believed that most of the shipment
will eventually be tound. The machin
ery was valued at several thousand dol
lars and was 'to be Installed in the paper
mills at La Camas.
Tha investigation of tha collision was
concluded before Inspectors Edwards
and Fuller a few days ago, but the
decision has not yet been banded down
as to who is to blame. The French
bark has been Ubeled by tha owners, of
tha Annie Comings for 141.000 and a
bond eoverlng that amount was filed
yesterday so that the bark might pro
cd to sea. . .
