Alaska merchants have' been -convinced that the Portland- Steamship coinninv hasi rnmo tn tuv tiirner LONG DOUBT T Joe Pratt, of Che steamer Thoman L. Wan.d, which arrived up late Saturday night, found on this trip a feeling among the merchants that Portland Mad finally entered that territory in the right "way, and he was assured in every direction, that the business would come here. "'in alx months they -won't be here,' waa the word that the Seattle owned lines passed around when we started," said Pratt thla morning:. "We have completed seven months of ac tual running, and our steamers are chartered for longer periods still, and we show no signa of faltering. "Security that we would continue waa all that the merchants of the north asked of us They did not wish to end their accounts with firms Which they knew would be able to . discriminate against them in case we failed them, and this feeling alone held us away from many thousand tons of freight. "From now on, we have nothing to fear from thia bugaboo. We are es tablished, and can safely go after the buainesa on even footing with the Other lines. "The . eecuring of larger and better steamers will mean much to us. I am eertaln that I have turned away $6000 in passenger business on this ateamer because the- Wand was not equipped to carry passengers, and no doubt the other steamers have passed up as much business. They have heard in Alaska that we Intend en larging our fleet, and I was asked by everyone when we could change and what steamers we were going to have. It was certainly encouraging to see such interest displayed." EXPORTS SHOW AX INCREASE San Francisco Report Large Fig ures for September. t San Francisco, Cal., 6ct. 26. The Value of exports from San Francisco in September amounted to $14,467,000 as against $8,662,000 for the corre sponding month last year, an increase of nearly 60 per cent.

For the first time since the Euro pean war broke out, the Royal Mail Steam Packet line this week issued a PORTLAND WOMAN CASE OF RHEUMATISM WITH AKOZ Mrs. M. Beard, 320 -Second Street, Obtains Quick Re sults From Remedy. "If anyone wants to know how I suffered from , rheumatism and what Akos did to stop it, they may ask any . one living in the same apartment house I do," says Mrs. M. Beard, re siding at 320 Second street, Portland, and prominent in Catholic church cir cles of this city. She says about her rase and the relief Akoz, the wonder ful California medicinal mineral, gave her: "As the result of over six years' suffering from muscular and nervous rheumatism my hands and feet became numb and swollen. The pains I endurefd were awful and were not confined to my hands and feet but all over my body. Many" remedies were tried but they did not give me much rest from my misery. I finally took to Akoz. In a few days the pains were all gone. In a couple of weeks the affected limbs began to take life as the circu lation began to be reestablished. At the end of the month I was practi cally cured as far as any suffering . or signs of rhaematism were con cerned. I will follow advice and keep taking tha Internal treatment for a month more. I used the compound for the pain and drank the mineral water to treat the cause. My entire system eemed benefited. Any of my friends report on the whereabouts of their steamers. It la taken from this that the British now believe the Pacific ocean fb be perfectly safe from Ger- nmn depredations. Bound for ; this nort the British steamer Merionethshire is ' now at Vancouver, B. C, and will sail for Portland Wednesday. . The British steamer Den of Airlie la due to enter Victoria .harbor today, and will be headed this way within a week. Both have heavy cargoes of freight, it being rumored that the Den of Airlie in par ticular has a heavy cargo. It is said that the oriental agents for the line bought up an entire cargo of hemp. which they shipped on the steamer. The positions of the Royal Mail steamers are as follows: Merionethshire, arrived at Seattle from Kobe October 23; Radnoksbire, arrived from London September 5; Den of Ruthven, arrived from London, September 18; Den of Airlie, left Kutchlotzu for Seattle.

C, where he expects to straighten out the tangfe resulting from the seizure of the Brit ish steamers Lowther Range and Bank lal by the British government, J. B. Blair, representing J. J. Moore & Co., passed through the city yesterday. Both Bteamers are charged with irreg ularities) in . their clearance papers on cargoes of coal consigned to Guaymas, Mexico, by the American company.

The steamer waa taken by Balfour, Guthrie & Co., and as the steamer is at Valpa raiso now it is supposed she will come here at once. That the buyers exacted - immediate delivery is the Inference drawn from the high charter rate secured by the steamer's owners. She will be avail able for loading early next month. The transfer of the charter of the French bark Vendee from Comynn, Mackall & Co.; to M. H. Houser Is also announced. The Vendee was formerly taken at a rate of 30s, but through the transfer her owners secured a rate of 32s 6d. BIG HALIBUT CARGO IS IN Steamer Elihu Thompson Brings 00,000 Pounds. Vancouver, B. C.
