.Fine Steel Passenger Vessel
, Built at Willamette Iron
Works for, Service, on
Puget Sound Leaves the
Ways Without Mishap.
Amid tha cheers of thousand, the flut
; tering of flags and' handkerchiefs, the
"tooting of whistle of the waterfront
'and tn the presence of officials of the
Willamette Iron &"Steel works and rep
resentative cltlsens of Puget sound
''cities, the steamer H. B. Kennedy was
-launched yesterday afternoon at the
shipyards In North Portland without A
hitch of any kind to mar the reunion.
,. Thousands of persons witnessed the
christening from vessels In the stream
"and from wharves and docks surround
ing the shipyards. The Kennedy, which
lis to be used on Puget sound, ,ls the
largest , steel . passenger . steamer ever
built In Portland, when complete she
will have cost her owners something
like $200,000 and she Will be one of the
finest vessels of her kind in Pacific
waters.
'Miss Minna Benhennlck 4f Bremer
ton, Wash., selected by popular vote,
was the sponsor of the Kennedy and
christened her by breaking a bottle of
champagne on the ship's bow Just as
the blocks were released and the ves
sel started down the ways.
Accomoanled by W. H. Corbett, presi
dent 1 and manager of the Willamette
Iron & Steel works, the builders. Miss
Benbennlck stood on a temporary pint
form awaiting the word of the other
"All ready!" shouted one of the men.
" Then there whs the prosaic sound of
the workman's hammer. The big steel
' hulk barely moved.
Miss .Banbsnnlck Is OooL
"I christen thee H. Eff Kennedy," Miss
Henbennlck said calmly snd distinctly,
but whose words were only heard by a
few of the thousand! who were crowded
about trying to get a glimpse of th
ceremonies and to see the great vessel
slide rlverward.
Miss Benbennlck was most self-possessed.
She was escorted to the plat
form by Mr. Corbett and listened to his
directions as. serenely as if It were an
every day matter to figure as god
mother for' a big steel steamer. She
was becomingly gowned In taupe broad'
cloth, cut empire with a dlreotolre coat
to match. With this she wore a picture
hat of taupe velvet elaborately trimmed
with white plumes which added a fetch
ing touch to the modish costume.
v Among those who attended the chris
tening were H. B. Kennedy of Seattle,
president Of the Port Orchard route, the
company which contracted with the
Portland firm for the building of the
vt'ssel. Others from Puget sound cities
who attended were: Mrs. H. B. Ken
nedy. Seattle; Captain and Mrs. W. E.
Mitchell Scuttle: R. Hayward. Bremer
ton; Mrs.- J. L Irvine. Bremerton;
Churls Kilehett. Bremerton; Mr. and
lrs. A. J. Comment. Bremerton; L. B.
Mallet I, Bremerton; Mr. and Mrs. A.. F.
Benbennfek, Bremerton: Mr. and Mrs.
I,. A. Palmer. Churleston: Miss M.
Cloudy, Charleston; Frank Walker, Se
attle: R. C. Hill, Seattle: K. B. Duff,
arleiston; Newton H. Peer. Seattle,
and Joshua Green, president of the In
land Navigation company, Seattle.
Builders Art Represented.
In addition to Mr. Corbett there were
niany officers of the Iron and steel
works present together with their wives,
families and friends. Among these were
William C. Alvord, vice president of the
compuny; Bert C. Ball, treasurer and
chief engineer, and Morton H. Insley,
necretary.
' TmmeAlntel v " After thA lAlinrriincr nn
Informal luncheon was served in the
offices of the eompany In Front street,
between Seventeenth and Nineteenth
streets In North Portland. Last night
the officers of the ship building com
pany entertained the Puget sound visi
tors with a banquet at the Oregon grill.
The new vessel will run between Se
attle and Bremerton. When completed
the steamer H. B, Kennedy will be one
of the finest and fastest passenger craft
for its sisse in the world. Although but
180 feet In length nnd with a beam of
but 88 feet, she will carry comfortably
1000 passengers. Tho plans show her
depth of hold to be 11 feet and the
linen are such that the builder guaran
tees a sp-sed of 20 miles- an hour.
The engines are to develop 2000 Indi
cated horsepower and it Is said that
they are of the finest type and con
struction. The boilers and engines will
be Installed soon, the contract calling
for delivery of the boat, ready for busi
ness, by the first -of the year. The spa
cious 'cabins are elaborately finished in
mahogany.
Wire Designed Here.
'The hull and boilers were designed
bv K. A. Rallln of this city, and the
engines were designed by the Willam
ette Iron & Steel works. Mr. Kennedy
is anid to be so well pleased with the"
progress of the work that a contract
for a sister craft will probably be
swarded before long, tho intention of
the company being to have at least two
swift passenger carriers on the route
which will cover the most picturesque
waters on Puget sound.
The vessel will bs completed some
time In March.

To the Horss Owner, Dear Sir: Knowing you are an owner and
a lover of "man's best friend, the horse," you are no doubt interested
in their care and appreciate the satisfaction and relief to the mind in
feeling that the horse which has served you so well and carried yon
t safely through ;tlie hunting field and over the road will be intelli
gently and kindly cared for by men who understand his every want
when he reaches the stable; where the animal will be housed in large
light stalls, resting day and night in an abundance of clean fresh
straw and being regularly and properly fed cm the. best supplies the
market affords. ? V
, - fy past experience in New York City lias qualified me to under
stand and anticipate the wants of those who ride and drive or
pleasure as well as to rightly care for their horse. For the past few
years I have been at the American Horse Exchange in New Yorjc'fof .
which Win. K. Vanderbilt is president), dealing in fine horses afoq
giving lessons in riding and driving; previous to that I was manager ,
of Mr. E. II. Harriman's private stables. During the recent Hunt
Club Horse Show I acted as assistant to President T. S. McGrath'"
and found many pleasant ' and mutually profitable acquaintances .
among" the" horse lovers of Portland. avV . ic.
Believing there is an opportunity to establisn .Tn Portland a higb
class stable, I have leased for a term of years the Portland rRidingi
Club and have spared neither effort or expense in refitting and mak
ing this the elite of Portland stabling faciltie, and further believing
ithat from my extensive experience I am capable of .giving you the ,
best of loyal service I hope to receive' youf -Ratronage. I might add '
, that the dressing rooms, for patrons are complete in all technical '
detail, equipped with hot and cold-needle shower and tnb baths and
immaculately Wept lockers.- I invite your, inspection of, the stables
and their, facilities. Most aincerely yours, . -

came on board eight days ago, but he
deemed It advisable to remain in the

miles away from shore until the storm
had abated.
With tho exception of the loss of the
one boat, the vessel raeched port in as
good condition as when she left Ant

tin's dock in North Portland and the
Loop will discharge her cargo at tho
Oak street dock.
The weather along the coast has mod
erated but Instead of having to con
tend with high winds and mountain high
seaa the coasters now have to deal
with dense fogs. Especially is this
the case on the river, -where yesterday
morning the fog waa so thick that nav
igation was almost impossible for deep
sea going craft much before 10 o'clock
In the morning. Similar conditions ex

difficulty that vessels get in and out

ERROR III MYERS
APPRAISEMENT
. - j
Estate Reduced by Nine
Thousand Sister May
Yet Share Equally. ' ' V
."V .
Finding that an error ot $9000 was
made in appraising the estate of the
late George T. Myers, one time state
senator and salmon packer, papers were
filed In the county court yesterday to
correct the figures. It was found that
a (9000 item had been duplicated in the
report oi tne appraisers and that the
true value of the estate was 248,038 In
stead of $257,000. . ,
Mrs. Georgia Frances Stevens, daugh
ter of Myers, recently won a contest in
the county court to set aside her fath
er's will, under which she was cut off
with $20,000, while the balanoe of the
property was to have gone to her
brother, George T. Myers Jr. If the
decision of Judge Webster Is sustained
on appeal, she will share equally with
her brother in the estate. The contest
brought out sensational testimony .as
to accusations that Myers made against
his daughter In connection with the
death of his wife, these charges admit
tedly being unfounded.
