THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 4, RATES TO ORIENT 'TO ADVANCE SOON at Representatives of Trans pacific Lines Reach Agreement. BECOMES EFFECTIVE FIRST NEXT MONTH liUIUJ UIJWBgi WILHELMINA A FAST BOAT Effort to Drive Tramp Steamey Com petition Out' of Field Oeaaa for Time Belna With Large More- ments of Breadstnffa In Sight. Freight rate on wheat and flour from Paolflo northwest port to the orient will advance materially on Sep tember 1. This announcement wm made this morning y representatives of the trana-Paclflo steamship line. It la held that the prevailing; rate do not even pay exppnsea. They were put In to drive Irregular tramp steamers out of competition. The new rate shows an Increase of from 60 cents to Jl per ton. the greater advance being; placed against shipments to Japanese ports and Hongkong, whlth er most of the breadstuff finds way. The new rate to Japanese ports will be 3 per ton to HongKong, 3.&o to Bhang hal and Manila. Si and St. 6.0 to Amoy The present rate Is 12 to Japan and Hongkong, $3 to Manila and S3. 60 to hanghal. While It Is stated that the old rates left no margin of profit. It Is also be lieved that large shipments of bread stuffs will be made this season to ports across the Pacific. Neither Japan nor China bought verv much wheat fast year because prices were high and times were poor in tne orient. Put financial conditions are gradually Improving over mere, and nonce more liberal purchases are ajuicipaiea even at tne nigti prices. The new rates become effective from Portland and the several Puget sound nd Brltljsh Columbian ports at the same time. Meetings for the purpose of adjusting the rates were neld In Seattle several weeks ago, and it was announced then that the advance would in all probability be made. The new rate is, however, more In the nature of restoration of the rate prevailing be fore the cut decided upon for the pur pose of fighting the tramp steamers, BO that there Is no reason to believe that It will moot with a wave of com plaint from shippers.

And the vreather- waa cool, but neverthelaRB the voyage was pleasant. The City of Panama, from Coos Bav, ran Into a cold wave of atmosphere so cold that the passengers had to wrap up to keep from freezing. The officers says It was regular winter weather.

FOREIGN VISITORS HERE. we never did before And we never heard of anybody else doing it. When a tailor vol tarily reduces the prices of everything he has in stock one fourth, it means a sac rifice of all his profit and a positive loss to him. Yet, as we have said before, we have the goods on hand and they are of no value to us in the bolt ; we have a big ship ment of new goods on the way, with no room to put them and some thing had to be done. We are even willing to include newly ar riving Fall goods in this 25 per cent dis count offer. You never heard of anything quite like this before. You seldom will again Weather Man From Australia and Appraiser From Hawaii Call. Henry A. Hunt, for nearly a quarter f a century connected with the weath er bureau of Australia, Is In Portlana today on his way around the world to tudy methods employed in forecasting the weather and Incidentally to glean information as to which instruments are considered the most reliable. Mr. Hunt called upon District pore- caster Edward A. Beals of this city this mnrntnir and was shown througn tne large and complete establishment In the Custom House building. He took note of number of valuable ideas carried out here with the Intention of incorpor- tlng them with the service in nis own land. From here Mr. Hunt win go across thn continent to New York, thence to England and continental Europe, where o will visit tne large weatner oureau tatlons and thereafter return home by ay of the Suez canal, thus describing a complete circle aruuna the globe. "I came out bv way of Victoria, B C." said Mr. Hunt, "stopped off a few hours at Senttle and came on to Port land. Your climate here seems beauti ful, We hear a great deal of Portland and Oregon over In Australia, but I must confess I never heard the cities of PuKct sound mentioned by their respec tlve names. It Is all Puget sound. "Times are prosperous In Australia. Wool has commanded a high price and crops have been very good. Irrigation nroiects are being taken up by the gov ernment, and the certainty of crops will be greatly enhanced. Other visitors at the Custom House today were C. W.
