New Oriental Steamship VIII 30 I'm
medistely Available.
Word has been received by the Port
land -Asiatic Steamship Company that
the new Hamburg American freight
ers which have been chartered to take
the place of the Indra liners are avail
able for immediate use. There win be
no break in the present service. Until
the new schedule is arranged the new
, steamers viii pick up the time OF the
old liners on the east-hound trip.
The Nieomedia will probably be the
first to arrive at Portland. Coming
this way frem the orient she will take
the Indravelli's run. and 1t is pre-
sumed that she will reach here about
the middle OF May.
The position of each of the new ves-
sells Is not known. The Anagonia ar
rived at Hamburg on February 10, and
is now en- route to the far east. The
NicomediaN NSailed from Hamburg for
China on January IS, and passed Pc
rim. on the Red sea, February 20. gon
February IA the Numentia sailed from
Hamburg for the west coast Of South
America and has probably reached her
destination. 1t will thus be seen that
three of the big freighters are either
now in the orient or will be in a short
time. One of them viii be on hand
to take the place of an Indra steamer
Immediately upon the expiration Of the
latter's charter.
with an oriental liner sailing from
Portland every ten days some of the
local exporters are of the opinion that
full cargoes will be difficult to secure
at all times. Others hold opposite
views, stating that the increased SER
vice will build up additional business.
1t is pointed out that when it is known
that plenty of freight space can be Sc
cured New York and other eastern
firms will frequently ship by way Of
Portland. A shipment of $50 tons Of
steel is now in transit from New York
to be sent from here to Yokohama on
the Indrapura, which is due to arrive
in port next Friday. 1t is believed that
m any shipments OF this kind will now
be made. The Indrapura's cargo con-
sists If silk, tea and mating. She
also has 81 steerage passengers. On
the outward trip, which will be her
last, she will take 5000 tons of barley
and 1000 tons of -four

NEW STEAMER ON THE RUN.

Vancouver Transportation Company to
Enter the iIwaco Business.
The following is taken from ths II
waco Journal:
att Is unofflcially announced that the
Vancouver Transportation Company
will place boat on the Ilwaco-Astoria
run, to connect with the Portland line,
and to compete with the o. R. & N.
and its adjunct, the /. R. & N, for the
freight and passenger traffic of the pc
ninsula. The action of the company In
entering the local field was at the So
licitation of number of business men,
who assert that exorbitant tariffs are
being maintained by the ]. r. & N,
and who have promised their freight
traffic to the new line when 1t enters
the field.
"Along with the question Of the Sc
curing of the new line the proposition
of building an independent city dock
is being agitated, and it is probable
that the matter will be brought to the
attention OF the city council at the
next meeting. 1t Is also possible that
q public dock may be built by dona-
ton. As the l. R. & N. owns the only
dock in the city, a dock will have to
be provided before another boat can be
placed on the run.
Pending the erection of dock. and
the placing of a regular boat on the.
run, the Vancouver Transportation
Company proposes to make regular
trips to nwaco, with scow, to handle
the freight traffic, which it has already
contracted for. The scow will be
beached at high tide"
