Failure of Lumlcr-I,n1on Craft to Reach Destination Recalls Mystery of the Disappearance of the British Bark Drumburton. No word of the nrrival of the British Bteamef Aeon at Sydney or any other port has yet lx-en received nnd as each day passes fears for tho overdue craft Increase. Leaving Portland July 1 and San Francisco five days later, the steamer should have reported at her destination by this time. What gives tj greatest cause for uneasiness Is thV, report that she has failed to stop at Apia. Samoa, as In structed. Mhc had not arrived there August 10 days after tho day Khe was expected. This Is looked upon as a matter of great slgnlloance, although J. Ernest LaJdlaw. Portland representa tive of the Frank Waterhouse line In which the steamer Is plying, considers Jt possible that the steamer did call at Apia but was not reported properly. He Bays she had only a few bags of mall for Apia ,and that possibly these were turned over without attracting atten tion. The Aeon left here with a nearly full cargo of lumber, having taken on redwood lumber at Eureka, Cal., on her way up trig coast. At San Francisco she took some general cargo and mall, the Waterhotise steamers being the mall boats plying between California and the antipodes. She had a few bags of mail for Samoa with orders to deliver them at A;iin. May Have Gone to Bottom. Like the Norwegian steamer Tabor which sailed hence about three weeks ago. the Aeon carried a pretty good elzed deckload of lumber, it being fig ured that she would encounter fine weather all along the line at this time of the year. But, Judging from reports of vessels arriving here from ports across the seas, rough weather has bean encountered In parts where It should be pleasant at this time. This leads to the belief that the Aeon got Announcement of American-tin Mafia u Line Iteceived. The announcement ycsteiile that the1 American-Hawaiian line will place Port- , land on its regular route met with much rejoicing In shipping circles he cause It will afford a much better means of making shipments bet wren" Portland and Atlantic coast ports than are now (listing. The Nebraskan will be here on Sep tember 21 to be followed by the Nevadan on October 12. That much freight will be brought here on the first strainer Is expected and It Is sal. I In be a fore gone conclusion tlmt the volume of traffic will steadily Increase. I Cjt ran C C3 Sale One Solid Week of Cleaning Up Odds and Ends The big Money-Raising Sale was closed Saturday night and we find throughout each and every department we have more or less odds and ends of every variety which we will close out this week at any-price. Some odds and ends are slightly soiled from handling and others in perfect shape, but only one or two of a kind. They all must go this week, as we are daily receiving our large fall stock and must have room for new goods. All Goods Piled on Tables and Counters and Plainly Marked for Your Inspection ORIENTAL LIN Kit ARRIVES. Alesia ,Jolns the Arabia in Harbor, Bringing Light Freight. The oriental liner Alesla. Captain F.rnst. arrived at Alaska dock late last night from Hongkong via Japanese ports and Honolulu and San Francisco. Because o.' calling at San Kraiirlsro the steamer brought very little freight ex cepting; for Portland consignees. She will -o out full, however as will also the liner Arabia which is now loading at Alblna dock. - The Arabia Is scheduled tq sail next Tuesday morning. ALONG THE WATERFRONT. The British steamer M. S Iiollar which has been loading lumber at the mills at l.lnnton for about two weeks shifts to Prescott today or tomorrow to take on 200, onn feet of large timbers. The M. S. Dollar goes to Shanghai. The steam schooner J. Marhoffer is loading random lumber at Rainier for Olson & Mahoneys yard at San Fran cisco. The lumber is mostly short lengths. The British bark Andorlnha which ar rived at Astoria Friday nlRht In ballast from Iqultjue Is under charter to Kerr, (iifford t Co. It was reported that she came under engagement to Balfour, Guthrie & Co. The steamer Alliance. Captain Olson, sailed last night for Coos Bay carrying about 300 tons of freight and a largo list of passengers. The steamer Break water. Captain ilacgenn. Is due to ar rive hero today from Cons Bay.

Some years ago the British . hark Drumburton left Portland for Australia '"with a cargo of lumber and was never heard from again. She is believed to have turned turtle and foundered a few hundred miles off the Columbia river, where it Is known she encountered ter rific squalls. But the mystery has never been solved. - Captain Tu Warned. The theory that she went dawn not far from the Columbia is based on Francisco. She will load lumber at prescott for return cargo. The British ship Fallklrk was char tered yesterday to carry wheat from Puget sound to Kurope. MARINE NOTES. Astoria. Aug. 15. Arrived at !:2r a. m. and left up at 2 40 p. m..
