A huge log floating In tba river be

a voice calling for help shortly after

to disclose any traces of afiy drown

targe Vessel Will Call at Oriental
Vorts on Way to Pactfio Coast;
- Other Itinera to Yellow.
. Service from Europe to the United
States by the East Asiatic company Is
to be resumed, the Danish steamer
Kina going onto the berth at Copen
hagen at once for this coast. The
Kina. will, on account of the war, make
a most unusual journey for that line,
coming to Portland through the Sues
canal and by way of oriental porta, as
do the steamers of ,the Royal Mall
Steam Packet line and the Hamburg
American. The Kina is to load cargo at Copen
hagen, ChrlStlanla, Gothenburg, Genoa
and Btclly. Borne freights not avail
able in ports at the north of Europe
will -it is believed, be tent to the south
of Europe for loading at Genoa and
Bicuy.
That the company plans On picking
tip the cargoes which otherwise would
go to the Hamburg-American and
Royal Mail lines is the Belief of ship
ping men here. Both these companies
have been embarrassed by the war, the
German steamers tlelng up in neutral
ports wherever possible, while the
English steamers have also kept close
to port since the outbreak of the war.
Thousands of tons of cargo are there
fore available at oriental and Pacific
coast ports for shipment.
The business of the Royal Mall and
Hamburg - American has amounted to
close to 16.000 tons a month out of
this port, while inbound cargoes have
run close to 5000 tons. It is believed
that the East Asiatic company, with
Its huge fleet of motorshlps and steam
era, plans to gain a stronger foothold
on this business while their competl
tors are embarrassed by war.
Service from Europe by this com
pany tnrougn tne ranam canal as
they had planned was discontinued
two weeks ago on account of the min
ing of the North sea by the Germans
Since that time, however, it has been
announced that the North sea was
again . navigable and it would not be
surprising to Portland shipping men to
see the Danish company resume Its
Panama canal service as well.

New York, Aug. 19. The liner Fin
land, carrying 1082 passengers, arrived
here today.
Among the passengers were James A.
Patten, the Chicago grain speculator.
and Mrs. Patten. They were in- Carls
bad when war was declared between
Germany and Russia. When they ar
rived at Nuremburg they were taken
into eustody by Gorman officiala and
questioned. They were finally re
leased, however, and took a train for
Cologne, and then for Herestal.
The only thing we could gat to eat
at Herestal waa a slice of bread each,"
Fatten said. "The next day, with three
other Americans, we hired a horse and
cart and had a thrilling drive to Liege,
We reached there while a battle wag
in progress and remained two hours.
Then ws went to Brussels.
"It has been said that war In Eu
rope will benefit America, said Mr.
Fatten. "For the life of tne. 1 cannot
see that, when the whole world is hard
up. Our export trade is aeriously di
minished. If the war lasts for any
length of time we may see a period of
distress throughout the world equal or
worse than that which existed during
the Napoleon war. If the crops in
Europe cannot be planted or harvested
next year prosperity all through the
world will receive' a serious blow.
Money everybody will hoard every
where." E. R. Weeks Jr. of Spokane and his
sister reached Brussels August 5. The
next day troops chased a spy onto a
roof and shot him dead. Another spy
was captured and shot the following
day. Once a mob approached Weeks,
crying "spy." Weeks saved his life, he
said; by waving an American flag.

sons for opposing the bill, in other
words, to list the bad projects and
give the reasons each should be re

generalities. A letter was received
from him yesterday containing this ex

letter and telegram that you are de
sirous of .defeating the passage of this
bill unless they take out these bad
projects there is no sacrifice of time
or effort I will not make to comply
with your request."
