" Hold Much drain While Docks
in rilldl With Idle Freight.
drain exporters are faced by a new
crisis, the lack of facl!1tie ror hand
ling their grain through the Atlantic
coast ports.
The terminal problem has been ser
ious on the Atlantic and Gulf sea
-boards for several months but haa
gotten worse Instead of better. It La
reported.
Portland exporters are authority for
the statement that between thret and
five million bushels of grain are now
In 'cars between Chicago and New York
nd not enough In New York to fill
the ships waiting there.
Demurrage on ships is. as a result,
amounting to many thousand lnllars
each day. One Portland Exporter Is
reported to be paying over $1000 a
day demurrage.
ry Says Cat to Limit.
Lay days on the Atlantic, due to the
high price of vessels, have been cut
to the limit. Exporters have had no
ay In the matter, the owners of ves
sels having the whip hand and en
forcing their demands.
Meanwhile freights are raising al
most daily. The rate from the Atlantic
eaboyd to English ports Is 17 pence
a bushel, whereas three weeks ago
pertce was the quotation.
"The railroads are putting us to a
loss every day," declared M. II.
Houser. leading Portland exporter,
this morning. "Tha roads on the
Pacific coast owe us favors because
we give them a great deal of busi
ness every year.
Discrimination Is Alleged.
-"The roads east of Chicago have
never received any of our Dusiness
. before and as a result favor their
steady shippers to our detriment. The
local firms have been hounding the
roads nlRht and day trying to gt
their grain to tidewater, without suc
cess. "Some of the discrimination has
been almost criminal. Goods have
been taken Into New York for which
the water facilities couldn't be avail
able for weks .and the tracks are.
. as a result, cluttered with freight
that cannot he moved out of the
way for the grain for which steam
ers and sailing ships are lying at
anchor in the stream."
It has been estimated that In the
neighborhood of 20.000.000 bushels Of
the 1915 grain crop will be moved to
Europe through the Atlantic and
Gulf ports.
BAY CITY TO HAVE LINE
Pacific Co&nt to Put Senator on
Run to Alaska From South.
San Francisco. Cal.. Jan. 21. (P. N.
8.) San Francisco is again to be a
port of leave for steamers sailing for
Alaskan points.
Beginning May 30, the Pacific Coast
Steamship company will put its Nome
liner Senator on a direct run from this
city to far northern points.
San Francisco will benefit material
ly by the decision of the Pacific Coast
Steamship company, which was influ
enced to establish a San Francisco
Alaska run by the new prohibition law
in Washington.
The law provides that liquor ship
ments to the north must originate out
side of the state of Washington, but
may be transferred from one vessel to
another at Seattle. Rather than trans
fer cargoes, the steamship company
has decided to carry liquor shipments,
together with such other additional
cargo as may be obtained here, direct
ly from San Francisco to Alaska.
DAMAGE TO CRAFT IS LARGE
Ice and Collision Cause Much
Trouble to Steamers.
Damage from the ice in the Colum
bia river continue to increase.
The Port of Portland towboat Ock
lahama will probably be out for two
months. New cylinder- timbers must
be seasoned for her use, and her ether
' repairs will take some tima.
Officers of the steamer Temple E.
Dorr, which ran down the Ocklahama,
were before Federad Inspectors Deerin
and Craft this morning, and other
crews will be up later In the day.
The steamer Johan Poulsen will be
lifted in the drydock for repairs this
afternoon, soma of the planking hav
ing been worn through by the con
stant scraping of the lea.

BETTER SERVICE WANTED
Chamber of Commerce After More
Steamers For Coos Bay Run.
The Chamber of Commerce is mak
ing every effort to have steamship
service between Portland and Coos
Bay increased.
George E. Hardy and W. D. B. Dod
son of that body are in San Francisco
trying to have Charles P. Doe. owner
of the North Pacific Steamship com
pany,, put another vessel on the run to
alternate with the F. A. Kllburn, now
the only vessel on the run.
Doe had intended placing the steam
er Breakwater on the run. but recently
chartered the steamer George W. Elder
for a high sum for west coast trade
and has announced that the Break
water will perhaps replace the Kider,
leaving the Kllburn alone to handls
the trade.
With only the one steamer on the
run and freight rates recently raised
Portland shippers assert that they are
having difficulty holding the lucrative
trade they have built up.
In case the Voe interests refuse to
grant ths request an attempt will be
made to interest other parties in the
venture.
Eurana Earning $30O.0O0.
San Francisco, Jan. 21. (P. N. S.)
Earning half its construction cost on
its first trip, the new steamer Eurana,
built by the Union Iron Works on spec
ulation and sold before completion to
F. D. Strachan, cleared for England
today by way of Vancouver. The Eu
rana loaded 1000 tons of flour here
and will load 7000 tons more at Ta
coma. The freight rate on this flour
is J39.50 a ton. bringing the fchip's
earnings on its first trip to well over
$300,000. The cost of construction is
estimated at $650,000.
Japanese Seek Trade.
San Francisco, Cal., Jan. 21. If. P
San Francisco shipping men were
perturbed today over the possibility of
the Toyo KisVri Kalsha securing a
monopoly of the Transpacific fr-ls:ht
trade. William H. Avery, local asont
for the company, is in the east seeking
to effect an agreement with the South
ern Pacific to handle all Its Transpa
cific freight shipped to this coast.

WATCH SORE THROATS
because swollen glands or inflamed
membranes often affect other tissues
and lung trouble easily follows.
To correct throat troubles the pure
cod liver oil in Scott's Emulsion is
speedily converted into germ-resisting
tissue; its glycerine is curative
and healing, while this wholesome
emulsion promptly upbuilds the
forces to resist tubercular germs and
avert the weakening influence which
usually follows.
If any member of your family has
a tender throat, get Scott's Emul
sion to-day. Physicians prescribe
it to avert throat troubles, overcome
bronchial disorders and strengthen
the lungs. No alcohol or harmful
drugs. Always insist on Scott's.
