WEDNESDAY EVENING, pECE!!Ci; ild aim m m'i mm UIU IBM IP UJ-U VIII- IE FOB Ol'lll Scarcity of Vessels and Big Demand for Carriers Result in Harvest for Men; Freight Rates Attractive. As result of th scarcity of vessels In comparison to the demand for car riers, owner of Old windjammers ars reaping rich harvests. A few year ago lth freights at Jedroolc these same old nailers were 4ruf on the market, , A vivid Illustration of how some of these old-carriers have been converted Into veritable gold mines was furnished here last week when the old Russian bark Clan MacFarlane )eft down the Co ' lumWa river bound for Durban, Strath Africa, with a cargo of lumber, under charter ito tba Ii P. JUo lumber com pan v. " ' . -. " The Clan MacFarlane cost originally, when built fcy a British company, about 175,000, but sailing vessels going out of popularity because of the introduction of steam tramps, was sold and resold until some time go she passed into ownership of a Russian company for the small sum of 1,000. At that time freights were at low ebb and the price was regarded . ta.lt'. Soon thereafter freights began to climb until a few months ago the vessel commanded SO , shillings per thousand feet of" lumber from Columbia river to South Africa, Having on board approximately 1,400, 00 feet, the charterer pays about 28, 000 for the run, or nearly twice as much as the owners' initial investment In the vessel. .,, v Shipping men estimate f 000 win cov er all Ujo vessel's expenses from the time she arrived here and began loading till the cargo will have been delivered, unless something unforeseen happens, thus leaving a clear profit of about $18, 000 In less than six months, a liberal atowance of time for loading, sailing and discharging. ',.., , . . ' The Clan Macfarlane came hers la ballast from the West Coast, but had a rood freight from Europe to the West Coast, and possibly "made inoney as fast on that trip as she is doing now bead ing for the dark continent : .
