REPAIR BIDS ARE AWARDED
St.
T
Johns Shipbuilding Company
Get Pronto Job.
At a special meeting of the Port of
Portland commission held this morn-
ins; the bids received for the repairs to
the river steamer Pronto were opened
and the contract awarded the St. Johns
Shipbuilding; company. Work is to be
started on the steamer this afternoon.
The Bt. Johns firm agreed' to do the
work for $1296. 'Joseph Supple for
$1670 and the Portland Ship yards for
S16Z5.
ALONG THE WATERFRONT
A rats war, promising to be' the
most bitter thm has ever been fought
out on.' the, Columbia end Willamette
rivers, was 'finned to fever heat this
morning with the cutting of the rate
to Astoria to 60 cents by tne vsncou
ycr Transportation Company, operat
ing the steamers I.urllne and Undine
on the run.
The "War really commenced with the
placing of the steamer Oeorglana on
the Astoria run by the llarklns Trans
portation company. At that time
reduction' of -SO cents was mads on the
on -way; fare, bringing the one way
raUs to SI. whereas for years the
xlritmera of the O.-W. It. & N. com
jiany and the Vancouver Transporta
tlon company have held to a fare of;
$1.60. The Ocorglana. new pro
peller boat recently completed, was
placed on the run to handle the pas
acngf r business alor.c - and with her
advent trouble commenced.
The movs made by the Kamm inter
ests this morning in slicing the rate3
In half leaves further developments to
be expected. All eyes on the water
front era now focused on Captain Iios
ford of the llarkins Transportation
company, to see what his move will
be.
That the battle lias not been one
of rates alone, but also of speed on
the river, Is shown in the reports ot
tiin harbor . police. On one evening
last week the Undine was reported by
the officer on watch as making the
run from the Portland "Flouring mills
to the Broadway bridge In It min
utes, and the (Jeorglana In 116, the
limit allowed for the vessels being
12'j minutes. Hotli masters were
warned not to repeat. No further
speeding has been reported.
.Saturday morning, the L.urline, by
a . clever bit of Jockeying on the part
of Iter master, gavo her companion
n earner a good start on the run. With
tho usual number of 7 o'clock Ballings,
(ho Undine got off to a slight lead. As
the Georgians got away from the dock,
tho l.urline came up the west side of
the river close in to the wharves. So
close to the stern of the steamer Ta
ho ma, moored at Oak street, did she
ome that the Georgiana, just depart
ing, was forced to coma to a dead
stop and wait for. the competing
steamer to pass. The Undine, by that
time, was well down the river. Other
brushes have been had In the lower
harbor, honors of which are said to
have been about even.
Under charter to M. H. Hounsr, the
German bark Dalbek arrived this morn
ing from Santa Rosalia. She made the
run in 61 days. A Port of Portland
tugboat will bring her up the river
tomorrow.
Carrying 1,100,000 feet of lumber,
the steamer Daisy Putnam left the
harbor this morning bound for San
Francisco.
The American schooner Eric was
taken from Westport to Astoria, bound
out this "morning, while the American
schooner Beulah arrived up at tho
plant of the West Oregon Lumber com
pany to commence loading.
An expected arrival in the river this
evening is the steamer Thomas L..
Wand, Captain B, B. 8haw, from Alas
ka. She has several thousand cases
of salmon aboard.
Clyde Macrum, a Portland boy, took
the post as wireless operator wi the
steamer Colonel E: K Drake, which
sailed yesterday for Port Ban Luis.
MARINE NOTES
-day. The superintendent, Mr, PrlChard, j
and the -engineer, - Mr. Kenton, have
been relieved from further duty. The
work of completing the Pacific high- j
way from Kalama to Martin's Bluff
will be done with .tree labor by the
state. The work already done by the
"honor men" is first class, and demon,
stratee clearly what can be done with
prison labor on the highways. Had
the camp remained 30 days longer the
work would have been completed from
Kalama south as far as Hoffman's
place, a distance of two mijes.
Railroads File Arguments.

were filed yesterday afternoon with
the railroad commission on the peti
tion of the Goode-Mays company, of

regulations.
The railroad commission will short
ly set a date for the hearing in the
case. . ...

WhatThinFolksShould
Do to Gain Weight
Physician's Advice for Thin,
Undeveloped Men and Women. I
Thousands ot people suffer from ex.
cessive thinness, weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who, having tried ad
vertised flesn-makers, food-fads, physi
cal culture stunts and rub-on creams,
resign themselves to life-long skinnl
ness and think nothing will make them
fat. Yet their case is not hopeless. A
recently discovered regenerative force
makes ' fat grow after years . of thin
ness, and is also unequalled for repair
ing the waste of sickness or faulty di
gestion and for strengthening the
nerves. This remarkable discovery is
called SargoL Six strength-giving, fat
produclnx elements of acknowledged
merit have been combined in this peer
less preparation, which is endorsed by
eminent physicians and used by prom
inent people everywnere. it is ab
solutely harmless, inexpensive and ef
ficient. A month's systematic use of Bargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
trip Diooa. increases nourisnment is
obtained from tho food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. Woodard. Clarke tt Co
end other leading druggists supply
Bargol and say there is a large demand
tor it.
While this new preparation nas given
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and
vitaliser. it should not be used by ner
vous people unless they wish to gain
at least ten pounds of flesh. (Adv.)
