Handling Freight to At

Ko more steamers east bound for
Kew York will sail from Portland or
other Pacific coast ports till after the
Panama canal - Is opened to traffic.
That event is looked for about March 1.
. According to C. D. Kennedy, Port
land agent for the American-Hawaian
Steamship company, who returned from
en extended visit to the east this morn
ing, that' line has dispatched its last
vessel for the Atlantic coast until such
time as the canal is opeAed.
West-bound traffic will ba main
tained as often as possible, but the en
tire fleet of the line will be reeded to
handle the products of the Honolulu
sugar refineries. The 25 8000 to 12.000
ton steamers of the line will all be in
this, service.
Previous to this announcement Wv

ship company and the Panama-Pacific
Steamship company had withdrawn,

wet coast lanes of trade.
Bofmx Pills Steamer.
The time necessary for the run
around the continent of South America
la too great say steamship' men to
allow a profit to the operators. D'e-
manas or me sugar reiiuenca, uo
nitrate producers and wheat exporters
have been too lucrative for the oper-
, ators of the great lines to pass up.
According to Mr. Kennedy, the new
steamers Arborean and Artisan, spe-
-cially built to handle lumber from
north Pacific ports to the Atlantio will
be sent to Europe with bulky cargoes
from the Atlantic seaboard as soon as
they are ready for service. The Ar
borean la expected from the Maryland
Shipbuilding yards shortly after Jan
uary 1, and the Artisan within 4 days
aftr. The Floridlan. a duplicate of
the steamer Washlngtonlan, sunk off
the Baltimore breakwater over a year
ago, is to be ready for delivery short

"One can gain some idea of shipping
conditions from a glance aiong uie
New York waterfront." declared Ken
aedy this morning. "There are between
40.000 and 60,000 loaded freight cars
awaiting ships in New York yards.
In the stream are from 20 to 60 Bteam
ers daily waiting for opportunities
to warp into berths where their freight
awaits them. The wharves themselves
are piled high with freight.
"The feeling in the east is remark
able. Every one has money, a job and
the prospect of a fine winter. As a re
sult the stores are having great busl-
. ness returns and everything Is hum
ming.
"This activity has extended as far
as Chicago and I am told that our own
coast is the only part of the country
not to feel it so far. I don't see how
we can miss some of it, however, and
think better times are surely due here.'

Tea Store isited by Robbers.
Thieves Dried a bar from the rear
window of the Jewel Tea company, at
21 Grand avenue, some time yesterday
and stole a large basket filled with
teas, coffees and spices. The police
believe that the robbery was the work
of boys.
The picture of two roosters and a
girl's head on a glass-handled knife
may prove to be the clue to catch
the thief who stole property from
the room of John Hook at he South

time yesterday. A blue serge suit and
the knife were missing when Hook
returned from a barber shop, accord
