merriiy and there are
,~UW1, hopes hat all her cargo
,NMN'llIn, will be out this evening
As usual sne had the
same large freight that comes on the
regular boat and with but three days
in port II takes good deal OF hustling
to discharge and load her in time for
departure This time she will get
a0out eleven thousand bags Of sugar.
The Mariposa from the Colonies
will in all probability arrive here Mon
day as she is on her last trip in the
Colonial service and as soon as she
arrives in San Francisco she will re-
ceive a little overhauling in time to
leave there on the second of February
for this port again as local boat
Then until the new vessels are al
running smoothly the Zealandia and
Mariposa will do the work between
here and San Francisco until the Ala
meaa can be fixed up and put in the
Zealandia's place as a local boat.
On the Zealandia leaving on Satur-
day the following passengers are al
ready booked for San Francisco:

San Francisco from this port Captain
Going expected To make a very fast
trip, but on account of the weather he
was disappointed. as it took the vessel
over six days where the skipper fig-

steamer Zeaiandia which left here

Three Cinnamon Skipped.

There is a skipper in port which is
OF the opinion that a Chinaman is @
very valuable piece of humanity. In
fact so valuable that il will take a
lot of salvage money lately earned to
pay for three Celestial sailors that
the skipper lost. Yesterday morning
Captain Long of the transport Kintuck
informed Joshua X. Brown at his Of
fee that three of the Chinese crew
OF the big steamer were missing and
that after careful and diligent
search no trace of the men could be
found. The captain <Inted to know
what to do in the matter and the law
was read to him. The law says that
where a skipper OF a vessel is liable
TO lose any or crew who are Chinese
he must take great precautions to
keep them on the vessel. For fail
ure TO do this and in case of any of
the men getting away the skipper of
the vessel is made penalty liable IN
the sum of $1,000 for each and every
Chinaman who escapes. Besides the
fine the skipper may oe put in prison
for year. Now Captain Long did not
have ANYTHING to do with the escape
of the Celestials and what is more.
he hired two guards and had them
placed at the gangways of the steamer
80 see that none of the crew came
ashore. The men went. however. and
how they got OF the ship rs mystery.
They had in the neighborhood of two
hundred dollars coming 10 them from
the steamer and this makes the skip
per think that they are only of seeing
the sights of the city and viii return
The United States officials are not
OF the same opinion. however. and
they are on the lookout for the three
men. Two of the quartermasters of

harbor. as he cannot clear until he
has Strengthened out the matter NJ
the three missing men to the liking
OF the collector. OF course no other
action other than the levying of the
hne will be had against the captain
as no one thinks that he was a partv

Warship Expenses.

Secretary Long has submitted to
Congress information concerning the
cost of running armed vessels. tenders
and warships sent to the Philippines
or from there since May l. 1899.

co to Key West cost $47.9S7. not in

which cost s50.266. When she went
from New York to Manila, October
L. 1898, the trip cost $115.110. with
out the expense of COAL which cost
s25,623 in addition.
Thirteen trips have been made
around the horn by various vessels
in the time in question. including the
Oregon twice. Marietta, Justin. Ster-
ling twice. Iowa, Celtic Scandal Bad

elusive of coal cost these trips cost
the government s605.370. Seventeen
trips have been made by this class of
vessels by the SueZ canal route. aud
the canal tolls amounted to s59.443
The ships that went by this route
were the Helene Buffalo twice. Ra-
leigh. Princeton. Castine, Solace, Yo-
semitic. Olympia. Glacier. Nashville.
Brooklyn. Marietta, New Orleans, the
Dixie and the Alexander twice. The
cost of these trips. exclusive of the

ernment s61S S,S99. This is only slight
ly more than the cost of thirteen trips

around the latter route would be much
greater than by the Suez canal. The
cost of bringing Admiral Dewey's flag
ship Olympia from Manila was $685.

GRAIN AND FRUIT CROPS

Outlook Is Favorable For Large Pro-

bore very heavily last year. The blooms
did not come out a. thick a. usual and
not large number Of blossoms have set
10 fruit.
Cherries promise 10 10 very prolific
and the crop has never seemed heavier
at this season. II will he early and the
trees are very thrifty.
Grapes were late in coming out hut
have made a fine growth. The budsa are
ready 10 bloom and there will be good
crop Of all varieties.
The crop Of Italian prunes we're never
30 heavy but cool damp weather has
pade them very tender. and aud where
land was poorly cultivated they are
falling false. But the outlook is favor.
able to very heavy crop.
Petite prunes are very thin in places
and the crop will not be iArge but of
good quality. About Shaw the reports
show not half crop.
Strawberries are showing some rust on
the leaves and riPening fast. Another
week will see the midst Of the harvest IL
the warmer weather holds on.
Pesrs are going 10 be big crop and
the present outlook indicates banner
fruit year IN the Willamette valley.
Grain and grass are reported to be
heavy crops in all directions. Some
fields OF grain are spotted and TIE
general tendency is to over estimate the
prospect as viewed from the roadside.
Getting into the fields one finds many
thin places. No insect pests are appear.

FIVE BURGLARIES
ON STATE STREET
Small. Sums Of Money and Some Goods
Secured at Nearly Every Place.
The Robbers Made UHiyersal Efforts
to Secure Valuable Papers and Col
laterals.

Burglars broke the record Friday
night and early Saturday morning at sa'
lem BY going through Eve grocery stores
on State street, breaking open safes and
rifing tills, carrying away small amounts
Of valuablss from each place.
VI. I. Rineman's store on State street
was entered through the back Office
windOz. The Office was rummaged
over, a desk drawer broken open and
the contents scattered. The proprietor
says nothing Of value vas secured. The
burglars did not have much tine % voik
as Mr.. Rinsman did not leave his place
Of business until about II o'clock.
The grocery Of Steiner & Co, 10 tbs
same block was entered In two places
through the warehouse window and th,
back store window, where entrance vai
gained to the Office. The safe was open.
81 and the inside drawers removed by
breaking the locks and then the robberI
broke them all 10 pieces with hammer
Papers we're scattered all over the floor,
but no money or valuable papers waS
secured. A lot Of tobacco, cigars and
snef goods are missing. Mr. Steiner
estimates his loss at less than 500.
The State street store Of Allen & Bow
ersnx was entered and robbed II some
contents. The thieves got through the
front door by picking the lock. Once
inside they proceeded to rsnssck The
place, taking about s. in change and
stamps, a silver watch and pelr-han-
died pocket knife. Not drswe or b1x
in the store was left isu.b,1, The
contents being emptied on the flor. A
large screw driver Was used to open the
till, which was carried of.
A. ;. Eppley's store vas entered by
smashing the doors open, the same per.
formance being carried on as in the
other stores
Mr.. Eppley said that the burglars
rihed his drygood's department, and
carrisd of hate and overalls. About IS
money was taken aud several bottles Of
toilet articles.
J. Magulres' store across the street
from Eppley's was entered at the side
door by picking the lock. A large hottie
OF root beer was taken and about 81 in
change. A $50 certificate deposit in Gil
bert Bros Bank belonging 10 Louis Zei-
mer, in Mr.. Maguire's care, evidently
was not considered valuable a. it was
crumbled up and dropped on the floor.
The stores were all entered late Friday
night or early this morning but it seems
the burglars had no desire for common
groceries. Mr.. Allen said he left his
wheel in the store, and after the theatre
he vent aud got ii about IL o'clock, and
at that time everything was quiet.
Chester Fraser, boy about ~ years Of
age, says that he came by Aliens store
bout IL 80 and he saw two men inside
but did not inform any one.
The burglars left no clue 10 identify
them, but twosuspicious looking" "hobos"
rode out on a freight early this morning.
This is the second time IN about a year
that these stores have been entered in
the same way.
