SEVENTEEN OF THE
CREW ARE MISSING
British Steamer Tropic Arrives il
Port After Stormy Voyage
From Valparaiso.

Charleston. S. c., Sept. 6-The British
steamship Tropic. 2,34O tons. Captain Bar
Der. arrived in this port today, after a
voyage lasting nearly three months. The
second mate, purser and fifteen seamen
are missing. Sailing from Valparaiso
Chile, June y, the TrOpic met with bad
weather at once, and on June Is, while
off Cape Putu and about fifteen miles
from Constitution, the ship went hard
aground not over 300 yards from the
beach. High seas were running
The second mate, Durser and fifteen
seamen put out in the first life boat for
Constitution, but aid never returned. All
night the seas dashed over the Tropic,
and the twenty men on board mOmentar-
lily expected the end. Morning brought
hope in the sight of men on shore, but
there seemed no way TO get 10 the ship
The captain with a KITE sent a cord to
shore and next a line, and then a haW-
ser reached the land. over this e men
went ashore. When the storm abated
somewhat the vessel was found to be
unchanged.
A naval court a Talcahuano exonerated
The captain and crew. The grounding is
accredited to a deviation of the ships
compasses and the prevalence of a strong
inset current off Putu. in latitude 500
south and longitude 1920 west. The
Tropic was twenty-eight days overdue
and cable from Valparaiso to the mari
time register dated June %, said that
she would be total wreck.

WORK PROVES EFFECTIVE.
Mosquitoes Do Not Breed Rapidly
After Rainfall.

New Orleans. Sept. 6.-Dr, White s
warning to the people of New Orleans 10
be on their guard against frequent ana
excessive rainfalls during September
which would tend largely to multiply the
breeding places of stegOmyia. bids 1alF
to be borne out so far as precipitation Is
concerned though the reduction in me
number of new cases of fever during the
past ten days does not indicate that the
mosquitoes are taking advantage OF their
opportunities After forenoon of clear
and pleasant weather, the heavy rain
again set in today, flushing cutters
throughout the city and creating fresh
ponds and pools in every Vacan. lot For
ten DAYS past there have been showers
nearly every day Injection, however Is
spreading more and more slowly and the
conclusion drawn is that screening OF
cisterns, oiling and sailing OF cutters and
fumigating of premises have accom-
plished the destruction of millions OF
mosquitoes which otherwise would now
be depOsiting their larvae in the new
breeding places.
TOday's record was again a favorable
one. DR.. White and DR.. Warner both
testify to the invaluable assistance that
has been rendered in the campaign by
the wOmen's organizations. Many rep
resentative society women have fOregOne
vacations to render assistance in the
campaign.

MORAN CORNERS
CEMENT MARKET
One Reason Why He Underbid All
His Competitors.
LOCAL FIRM TO INCREASE
TREMENDOUS DEMAND FOR CON-
CRETE IN ALL SECTIONS.

The divergence of over 100000 in the
bids for the Big Cottonwood conduit that
was estimated TO cost $3O0,OOO has given
rise to much discussion. 1t develops that
much of the divergence is due to the ce-
ment situation. p. ]. Moran has a con-
tract wieh the Portland Cement company
of Utah for from 5000 to 5000 barrels
OF cement for the American smelter at the
point of the mountain. This made it i'm
possible for this plant to agree TO fur
ntsh cement for the conduit for some
months IL the future. The contractors
In wiring to other factories in other parts
or the country, found the same condition
prevailing. For this reason they did not
dare TO figure closely on the contract, not
knowing whether prices of cement would
go soaring before they could get their
supply. This is one of the big advantages
Moran had over his competitors. and he
worked il for its full worth.
At the same time LedyaTd NJ Bailey.
general manager Of the local company.
argues that the price of the concrete
should make but little difference in the
bids. The contract, he says will call for
1000 barrels of'Cement. The local price
Is S229 a barrel Cement can be shipped
in from Germany for S325. so that the
added cost at the most could not be more
than 81 a barrel or $4,000 on the con-
tract.

Demand for Cement Immense.

The incident calls attention TO the tre-
mendous demand that is growing up for
Portland cement The local factory has
q capacity of 500 barrels a day, or 1900
barrels a month. Even with this output
Il is far from able TO meet the demands
and viii increase its capacity at once to
$50 barrels a day.
The construction of the new smeter
calls for 5000 to $1,000 barrels of cement
not later than the middle of December
The city Is consuming l,OO9 barrels a day
i'm the construction of sidewalks. and
Manager Bailey estimates that 1O,000 bar
rels will be used in this way before work
/ is closed down for the winter. The gov
eminent work at MinidOka calls for l0OJ0
/ barrels more from this factory. These
! figures do not take into account the sup
ply required for small contracts
City Engineer George w. Ritter fears
/ that this shortage of cement may inter
1 fere to some extent with the public work
of the city Cement is now being shipped
i'm from all sides. but the demand is as
great in other places as in Salt Lake.
4 There was never a time when Portland
cement WAS so extensively used. The
consumption has increased eight-fOld IN
the last ten years This year the con-
sumption in the country will be upward
of 2j,0OJ,G0O barrels.
