Portland's grain doons are apt to be
swamped In mid-winter and early
spring, fear Portland exporters and
dock men.
Lust year the vessels of the grain
fleet were handled tauter than ever
before. Destruction 6y fire of Mont
gomery dock No. 1, 'Columbia No. 2
and Oceanic docks made a big crimp
lti the available apace. But vessels
Came ilong in good sequence and lit
tle time was lout.
This season's prospect Is bad, how
ever. There has been a nice start
with a number of big cargoes being
dispatched thin month. However, the
reluctance with which tbe farmers are
parting with their gf'a.ln will, It Is
feared, result in a general exodus of
grain in midwinter and spring, which
will make fast handling; Impossible,
and pile up demurrage charges on
wheat kept stored in cars.
Vessels, say shipping men, are ad
mirably spaced for fast handling this
fall. Fifteen vessels have loaded grain
cargoes ho far this season. Forty-two
vessels are under ehRrter now for grain
loading: here. ' The Milling vessels are
nearly all coming from Europe, 10 of
the .17 n route now are from there,
three from Australia and four from
flout h Africa. Many of these 17 should
drift In about November 1 and make
a busy time In the harbor Just at the
time when the early supply of steam
ers Is out of the way. Later In the
year will come the heavy swing back
of steamers and late sailing ships.
It Is the months of January, Febru
ary and March when, It Is feared that
the docks will be the most congested.
Tlie British bark KlUarncy com
menced loading this morning and will
be- finished by tomorrow noon. She
in being given rapid dispatch with her
barley cargo that Irving dock may not
be blocked past tomnrrow.
