+ PORTLAND, Oregon, June 17.-Be-
ginning early in 1910, the steamships
Arabia, Alesia, Nicomedia and Numan-
tia Of the Hamburg American line,
| which have been succeeded on the
Oriental route out of Portland by Nor
wegian freighters, recently chartered by
/ the Hartman interests, will again be
| operating between this city and Hong
! kong and way ports, according to semi
official reports enlanating from Port
land railroad officials today. It is said
that arrangements have practically
been completed for them to. run in con-
nection with the North Bank road, and
official announcement to this effect will
soon be made.
All along the general supposition has
| been that one Of the chief objects the
Hill people had in view when they built
a road down the north bank of the Co
lumhia river was to get an outlet here
for the shipment of interior freight to
the Far East, as well as to San Fran
cisco. It is said that negotiations be-
! tween the North Bank people and the
| Hambnrg-Ameriean line have been
| pending since the Norwegian steamers
We're chartered by the Portland and
| Asiatic Steamship Company to operate
out of this port.
With the Hartman interests the term
of service of the Alesia and Nicomedia
has already expired, and the Arabia is
here on her last trip for them. The
Numantia will make two more trips out
! of here before her contract expires.
Wind TANNERS Are Loading.
Scheduled to leave here June 10 for
Hilo, the Matson bark w. H. Marston
has almost finished loading very large
cargo, and she is far down in the water
alongside Howard No 3 wharf, says the
I Chronicle of June 49, She viii go out
in command of Captain Hersey, who
viii not, as was formerly reported, en-
gage in a race with the bark r. P.
Rithet, as the bark will not leave this

Rains Delay Loading.
/ Chronicle, June 19.-Heavy rains
retarded the loading of the American
Hawaiian Steamship Company IS freight
er Missourian at Salina Cruz, the Pacific
terminus of the Tehauntepec route, and
the vessel reached here yesterday over
a week behind her schedule During
/, stormy weather on the lower coast it is
| impossible for the freighter to make
| the breakwater and often necessary for
them to stand out to sea. The Missourian
had quick run up the coast. making
! the voyage in six days and twenty-one
| hours. She brought cargo Of about
| 5000 tons, consisting of general freight
| loaded at New York by the company s
Atlantic line steamers and shipped
