Makes First Visit Under New Flag. 1 ' J Two windjammers arrived In the har , bor yesterday afternoon In tow of the steamer Harvest Queen. They were the French bark Hoche and the Norwegian hip Calunna, The former Is In from Honolulu, and the latter from Callao, Peru. Neither of them had exciting- voy-i ages. In fact, the skippers tell much the same of a yarn, "nothing startling, a little storm, .then a calm, and again fair sailing." Both made fair passages as for time, the Hoche - crossing from the Islands to the Columbia in 20 days, and the Calunna making the run from Callao to the river In 47 days. Captain Lemaltre of the Hoche Is Well known hete. He looks like an Englishman and talks like one, hut Is French nevertheless, and It puzzles the Germans when told that the vessel does not fly the colors of their great empire. The Hoche came In ballast and has about J. 000 tons of stone that Caotala Lemaltre believes would come In nicely for building purposes. Jt was taken on board at Honolulu and Is or fantastic colors. It will be sold to the highest bidder. ! Captain Blrkland of the Norwegian Ship Calunna says the voyage up the coast was uneventful In the main. The ship fell In with the trades and bowled along nicely until near the Columbia river. He was outside about three hours before Dlcklnr up the bar tug, Altogether he is very well pleased with the trip. The Portland Flouring Mills company will send the vessel to Europe With a cargo of wheat. She will prob ably be brought to the harbor proper Monday to begin discharging her bal last. The Calunna formerly sailed Under the British, flag. The Hoche is under charter to Kerr, Glfford & Co. to carry wheat to Europe. 8he, too. will probably also begin dis charging ballast early this week. , .

The American ship Henry Villard Is being given a thorough overhauling so that slm will be In first class condi tion when started for the Bristol Hay salmon canneries this spring. The work Is being done near St. Johns, Where the nquarerlgger is tied up. Captain Davidson, who arrived here 'a. few days ago from San Francisco to itake, command of the Villard, says she will be brought to Portland in a couple 'tit weeks to begin receiving some of the cargo to go north. The portion taken from here will consist mostly of coal snd lumber for use in repairing the buildings at the fishing grounds At Astoria the fish boats and equip ment will be taken or. ooard. After this has been done several Hundred Chi nese and Japanese cannery workmen and white fishermen will embark. The white men will sail the vessel to her destination. Behind the monster wave Is shown the British ship Arctlo Stream riding out a storm. The photograph was taken by Captain Charles C. Dixon, mas ter of the vessel, who has contributed muph valuable data and Information to the hydropraphic departments of this country as well as to geographical and scientific societies of the old world. Captain Dixon, In securing the above photograph, had to risk his life In ono of the ship's small boats. It was tossed about like a cork, out tne mariner photographer didn't mind the risk. He wanted the picture and got it Coming here from Europe, Captain DlxOn secured, among other valuable photographs, some of a total eclipse of tho sun. This eclipse was visible only on the oeeiin In the vicinity wher the ' Arctic Stream wuh at that time laboring with the elements, and thi pictures are for that reason considered of more than ordinary importance. slbly arrive before Thursday. Advices from the orient are to the effect that sne is bringlna a valuable cargo. Returning to the orient the Numantla win carry a run cargo or flour con signed to Vladivostok importers. It will be the first time In tares sailings that a liner will go out with a capacity riour cargo, tne demand tn 4no orient having fallen off considerably about the first of tho year. An improvement has oeen noted. . nowever. dur nsr the ran rfew weeks, end It is expected that henceforth the liners will go out full again. Manager n. P. Schwertn. of the Har rlman system, will remain In Portland and superintend the discharging an loading of the Numantla. He auperln tended the loading of the San Fran Cisco liner Rose City last week, hoping theroby to discover some way whereby the expense of handling the freight migni do reduced. PORTLAND LEADS AGAIN. Ships More Wheat In February Than Sound Ports Combined. 'Portland again easily outdistanced the combined Puget sound cities in re gards to wheat shipments last month Figures complied ov the Merchants Kx change last night show that during Feb ruary Portland shinned 1.4 2.720 bush els of wheat, whereas Tacoma, Seattle and Helltngham with the assistance o a number or smaller places along th shores of the sound, shipped 2,145,(1 bushels, or about 300.000 bushels less The combined output of flour of the various sound ports exceeds the amount shlireed from Portland durlna the month only by about 15,000 barrels, a small margin Indeed since Portland alon compoted against the combined efforts on the sound.

But few steamers are now In fort cr on the way, and it Is understood hat those new loading here or en route to San Francisco will be tied up as soon as they reach that port. All this is having the effect of bring ing out the windjammers that have been tied up here and several have recently received charters and have begun to load. The A. U.

Elmore will operate regularly on a weekly schedule between Portland and Tillamook, carrying freight and passengers. W. A. Baker will bo Port land agent for the line, and headquar ters will be established at Oak street dock. Mr. Baker was In Astoria yesterday and closed negotiations for handling the business at this end ot the line. He is also agent for the steamer Break water, plying between this port and Coos Bay on a weekly schedule. The Breakwater sails every Wednesday evening and the Intention is to have me sue iiamore deDart Tuesday even ings. Tillamook merchants have been look lng for direct steamboat connection with Portland for many years, and H Is believed that the placing; of the El more on the route is more in the wav of an experiment with the intention f adding another boat to the service next summer if the scheme proves satisfac tory. The Sue Elmore has been plying be tween Astoria and Tillamook for sev eral years, but somehow or other tho service has not .been entirely satisfac tory. To meet every requirement it was decided to extend the route to Portland with the view of addlnor an other boat as soon as it is demonstrated that the line will pay. TlliamooK is one of the ranldlv da veloplng sections of the state that is far behind in the way of transnortation facilities., A good steamboat line is said to be a necessity at this time, un- ess me iraue snail be diverted to Sun Francisco where, merchants are already beginning to take care of the business that has been Ignored for a long time y tne merchants or the Oregon metrop 11s, owing to the lack of suitable transportation facilities.

A real warm and earnest rate war Is predicted for the upper Columbia this summer. Whether It will materialize or not remains to be seen. Opposition railroads and independent steamboat companies are expected to enter Into the mlxrup. "I sea blood on 1 the moon," said a steamboat man last night In looking in to the future, transportation field of the upper Columbia. "You might say that the entire geography of the upper Co lumbia basin will undergo a transforma tion with the completion of the north bank road, and I would not be at all surprised If It will be possible this sum mer to go to The Dalles by boat from PorllancT for 26 cents, and enjoy meals and music to boot "The Spencer and Open River boat will operate Independently In opposition to the steamers of The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation company, which are In conjunction with the O. R. & N. Co., and the Portland & Seattle railroad or the north bank ucad will possibly arrange with some line for traffic con nections. This will mean that some body is going to look for business." The open rivor steamer J. N. Teal has been prautically rebuilt and will be ready to go into commission in a few weeks between Portland and Celllo and the Charles R. Spencer will also be out soon to go on the run between Portland and The Dalles. The D. P. '& A. N. company Is operat ing the Ealley Uatzert and Dalles City, tho I wo boats alternating on a dally schedule. Last season the Bailey Uat zert proved popular as a Sunday excur sion boat and It is supposed that the Sunday run will again be featured the forthcoming summer. The Spencer, too. will in all nrobablllty make special Sun day excursions to the locks at cascades. rnose mining rate war say inai inn independent boats, the J. N. Teal and Charles R. Spencer, will have a great nrivantaen over the boats operated In conjunction with the railroads since thev will not be amenable to the Inter ptate commerce laws. Not hampered by these rules the independent boats can alter their tariffs on a moment a nouce. whereas the railroad boats will have tofl have their new tariffs published fifteen days before becoming effeqive, whether the change means an advance or reouc tlon. sW t ' fi'I' ' if. iV.
