WRECK QF THE CONGRESS BEING TOWED TO MARSHFIELD FOR REPAIRS
'Washington, 6ept. 21. The recent
'Purchase of three large snipe by the
Pacific Mail Steamship company
'marked the turning point In the for
tunes of American shipping on the
Pacific, states a report on Trans
pacific shipping Just made puouc Dy
the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce of the department of com
merce. This purchase adds 17,100
-gross tons to the 6000 tons ma r-
'malned of American shipping on the
Pacific. Prior to the war the total
American tonnage engaged In this
. trade was 80.000 gross tons.
The war has cut down the total ship
ping of all nations engaged' In Trans
pacific trade from 580,000 gross tons
' to 280,000.
Japanese Tonnage Grows.
f Before the war American shipping
"comprised 21 per cent of the total.
British shipping 39 per cent, and Japa
nese. 33 per cent. Up to the time the
recent purchases were made American
- shipping had fallen off to 2 per cent,
British, tonnage had fallen off to 30
'per cent. Japanese tonnage had In
creased to 65 per cent of the total, and
Dutch shipping had Jumped from prac-
v Ileal ly nothing at all to 13 per cent.
. tr.nrltuh tonnmra fell from 150.000
i cross tons to 84,000 tons, Japanese ton
nage increased from 125,000 to 156,000
tons, and the Dutch increased from a
negligible quantity to 86,000 tons.
Oriental Shipyards Active.
A very interesting section of the re
port is devoted to shipbuilding activi
ties In Japan and China. Japanese
shipyards are taxed to the limit of
, their capacities. Orders for ships from
abroad have been refused, as the yards
have booked orders for Japanese ships
that will keep them busy for the mext
two years. The builders, however, are
handicapped by a lack of material, and
It la an interesting fact that one large
new shipbuilding eorrfpany is buying
all of Its material from this country
-: Boilers, engines, and other fittings
, unnot hit had at Very reasonable
. t rices, for they cannot be manufac
tured at home as cheaply as they can
r be turned out in the Tlnited States and
Ens-land. But in spite of all handl-
caps, Japan Is losing no xjme in laums
Advantage of the present unparalleled
opportunities. Puri-hases of foreign
' ships have been made at very high
prices.
Growth of Japanese Tonnage.
The report calls attention to the
fact that although the keel of the first
teel vessel via laid In Japan as late
as 1890, the total shipping tonnage of
the country at the present time, In
cluding the veBsele registered In the
colonies, la no less than .los.uuu gross
' . tens.
t The Chinese are also busy at their
-Tarda In Shanghai and Hongkong, al
though badly handicapped by scarcity
. of materials. One Hongkong company
la at work on elghx ocean freighters
for Norwegian owners. Two more of
' a similar type will be started as soon
as facilities will permit, and there are
" additional contracts for five others.
This company recently voted to in-
crease Us capital stock to $1,500,000.

STRIKE TALK ON THE SOUND
Longshoremen Ask Labor Council
to Order Walkout.
Seattle, Wash.. Sept. 21. (TJ. P.)
Negotiations for settlement of the
longshoremen's strike having met with
failure here, a request made by the
Riggers' and Stevedores' union last
night for a sympathetic strike of all
transportation workers In Seattle was
In the hands today of the strike and
grievance committee of the Central La
bor Council.
Following the refusal of the council
to act immediately on the request.
Martin Meyer, president of the local
longshoremen's union, resigned as a
delegate to the council.
The committee in whose hands the
request was placed was instructed by
the council to make a thorough inves
tigation of the situation on the water
front. Federal Conciliation Commissioner
William Blackman, who was sent here
from Washington, in the interests of
arbitration, admits that efforts to end
the strike have proved futile.

by Am an Moore asks damages In the
sum of 11,500,004.
The) arguments of the complainants
will be finished this afternoon and the
argument of the defense may be con
cluded also today.
Letters that told the secrets of the
Oregon Portland Cement company were
Introduced yesterday afternoon.
These letters were Introduced by
counsel for Aman Moore and were In
dignantly referred to by counsel for
the officers and directors of the Ore
gon Portland Cement company, whom
Moore seeks to have restrained from
acting for the company until his $1.
600.000 damage suit Is decided, as hav
ing been "rifled"' from the files.
Xietters Are Copied.
One day last week, Attorneys Bur
nett, Smith and Logan for Moore ad
mitted, three stenographers were sent
to the offices of the cement company
in the Wilcox building and, under
Moore's authority as vice-president and
treasurer, took letters from confiden
tial files and made copies of them.
These letters were read for the pur
pose of showing, first, that Aman
Moore endeavored to build up a mar
ket and good will for the product of
the cement plant at Oswego: second.
that an agreement as to prices was
sought to be entered Into between
other cemeqt companies and the Ore
gon company; third, that as soon as
he reached out into territory other
than western and central Oregon
protest was raised by Butchart, presi
dent of the company, and, fourth, that
as soon as Moore's action was filed
there was a great flurry among those
whom he accused of being parties to a
"cement trust."
Directors! In Deadlock.
In this last named connection a
telegram dated August 28, 1916, was
read from George MacDonald to H.
A. Bobs, care of the Vancouver Port
land Cement company, Victoria, B. C,
as follows: "Nothing done. Directors
deadlocked and referred whole matter
to shareholders' meeting, September
20.
Aman s vice president on behalf
and In the name of the company to
day filed papers for damages against
Mr. Butchart, Boettcher, Clark Moore,
Newlamds, myself. This action proves
my contention our danger lay in his
vice presidency only. Now necessary
we call directors Mr. Butchart's ar
rival, remove Aman and order with
drawal suit, otherwise company miy
be deeply involved financially.
"What Defense?" Is Asked.
'Aman wil have suit proceed at
once so as to make all posible amends.
What defense yo-u propose Mr. But
chart T
The Intimation of this telegram
that effort would be made to have
Aman Moore's law action dismissed,
was fortified by Moore's counsel with
a showing of the program for the
stockholders' meeting scheduled for
yesterday afternoon but postponed, on
direction from Judge Wolverton, until
the injunction case should be disposed
of In which one proposed order .f
business was to prevent the vice presi
dent acting for the company except by
permission of the directors.
Kemorala Ar. Discussed.
Another order of business was lo
remove Aman Moore and Paul C. Bates
as vice president, and still another to
remove Aman Moore as treasurer.
This was presented in refutation of
what W. W. Cotton had said in behalf
of the defense that no proceedings
looking to the dismissal of Moore's law
action had been contemplated.
The afternoon hearing closed with
the reading of affidavits, already made
public, by Wirt Minor, counsel for the
defense.

IN CEMENT CASE IS
ATTACKED BY DEFENSE
(Conthrned From Page One.)
Burtchart, one of those accused of
conspiring in restraint of trade in the
cement trust battle, held, together
with his two brothers and C. Boettch
er, 4095 shares of the Oregon Port
land Cement company's total issue of
14,771 preferred and common, and it
was alleged by Burnett that the group
controls 3000 additional shares, as
contrasted with Aman Moore's hold
ings of 1067 shares of common and
preferred stock.
Men rail to Make Appearance.
Burnett declared that Burtchart was
In town last week and slipped out
without a statement or affidavit in
his defense and that he has made no
appearance or affidavit since, that
Boettcher and Clark M. Moore, the
salesmanager, were with Burtchart,
aavised by telegraph of the
action and that they have made no ap
pearance or affidavit In their own de
fense, although the law action started
bouse on top of the Oregonlan bully
ing last night. The structure was
used for storage purposes and the !oee
was nominal. Th. building proper
was not damaged. Battalion Chief
Holden, who was standing on the
parapet of the building nine stories
from the street, was knocked down by
s hose and barely escaped falling to

BENETOL is the most powerful, harmless
germicide known in all the medical world
Not only is Benetol a marvelous prepara
tion because of its germicidal powers but it de
serves equal fame as a healing agent. Because
of these two properties, Benetol is sold in vari
ous convenient forms. Among these is to be
particularly recommended Benetol Ointment
and Benetol Powder.
Both of these preparations are, of course, in
tended for skin troubles and to preserve the
hands, face and body in the most perfect possi
ble condition of skin health.
With women, this question of skin health is
one of the most important of toilette problems.
So many cold creams and Motions are found
Irritating to sensitive skins, that Benetol Oint
ment is proving a most welcome substitute.
In fact, Benetol Ointment, because of its pe
culiar instant healing properties is being used
by a small army of women in preference to cold
creams.
As a curative agent for plmles, eczema,
roughness, chap, sunburn and other skin trou
bles, Benetol Ointment is so far ahead of any
other cream or ointment that there Is really no
comparison to be made.
And Benetol Powder is In fact the only
healing, curative, antiseptic powder that IS
offered (so far as we know).
Both the Ointment and the powder contain
the active principles of BENETOL. This is the
secret of their wonderful propertiesjmd eiplains
why they are not to be compared with any other
ointments or powders on the market because
none other contains BENETOL.
If you have any skin troubles try,4!nese
preparations and if after one week yon have not
found them many times better than "anything
else you ever used, take the remaining part of
the packages back to your druggist and get your
money back in full.
This is a plea for you to try Benetol prepara
tions at our expense, and you assume no risk
whatever.
If you are a man and shave yourself, use
Benetol Ointment and Benetol Powder aftei
shaving. Try them for only one morning and
you will never be without them again. If a
barber shaves you, take him a package of each
and ask him to use them on your face. Then
you will be positively insured against barber's
itch or any contagious skin trouble.
