LOSS FEARED
One Steamship Destroyed and Another
in Danger-Fire Started by
Cigarette.

Portland, Ore, March l3.The Column
bia dock here was discovered to be on
fire early yesterday. and in spite OF all
the fireboats could do the flames spread
to two steamships lying in the river, one
of which is a total loss.
The fire started in dock No. 2 and
quickly spread to dock No. both being
destroyed. The Royal Mail steamship
Glenroy and the British steamship
Cricket were at the dock and both caught
fire. Despite the efforts of the firebosts
the Cricket burned to the waters edge
and there was but little hope OF saving
the Glenroy
The Glenroy carries $4,000 tons OF
wheat and barley and this will be total
loss.
1t is estimated that the damage to all
property affected will exceed 81 100000.
A cigarette thrown down by a tramp
caused the fire.

A Few Doses Give Relief, Helps
Lifeless Organs Regain Health,
Strength and Activity.

1t is useless, dangerous, and unneces-
sary to be tortured with the digging
twisting pains of backache and rheuma-
tism, or suffer with disagreeable kidney
and bladder disorders any longer.
The new discovery, Corxone, provides
a remedy which every sufferer can now
depend upon to promptly and surely re-
lieye all such misery and bring about a
speedy cure.
Croxone cures these troubles because
it quickly overcomes the very cause of
the disease. 1t soaks right into the
stopped-up, inactive kidneys, through the
membranes and linings; cleans out the
little filtering glands; neutralizes and
-dissolves the poisonous uric acid and
makes the kidneys filter and sift from

FOX BOND ISSUE PROBE
Senator Smith Replies to Bankers
Telegram in Regard to
Nicaragua Case.

A telegram from Brown Brothers &
Co. and ]. w. Seligman s. Co.. New York
bankers. read in the Senate today upon
presentation by Senator O'Gorman deny
ing they had profited enormously by Mic
araguan bond issues, brought forth de-
mand on the floor of the Senate by Sen
ator William Alden Smith that the bond
issues be investigated.
The telegram declared Senator Smiths
resolution charging the bankers with
large profits was incorrect and base
less accusation.
After stating to the Senate he had
thoroughly investigated the Nicaraguan
bond issues before he introduced his reso-
luton Senator Smith said:
'On my responsibility to the country as
all American senator. I allege that the in
debtedness now sought to be validated
and imposed upon the republic Of Mic
aragua, in the main fraudulent. ought
not to receive the approval Of the Senate. "
He said the issues reflected no credit
upon this government, Nicaragua or the
bankers who figured in them.

ROCK ISLAND SECURITIES
ARE CENTER OF ACTIVITY
Large Dealings in Some Low-Price
Specialties-Sharp Break in
Sterling-Closing Firm.

NEW YORK. June 19.-Rock Island Sc
curities were the chief subject of specu-
lative activity in the early stock market
today
The debenture bonds developed excep-
tional strength. They bounded up Az to
ia. gain of more than points in two
days.
The refunding bonds jumped IL. The
collateral and the common and preferred
stock, on the other hand, were lower.
These movements were interpreted in
the light of the report that an assessment
of about s3o0OO,0OO would be levied on
the stock.
General Movement Narrow.
The general market movement was
narrow and irregular. with fairly firm
undertone and a majority of small ad-
vances
Engagement was announced of 81. 5O0,-
OO0 more gold for export.
Prices hardened slowly during the
morning The demand was limited prin-
cipally to the. seasoned dividend-paying
shares. but there were larger dealings
in few low priced specialties.
Another sharp break occurred in de-
mand sterling. making a drop of about
100 points in three days.
Bonds Are Irregular.
Bonds were irregular.
. Sales of bonds in the first hour were
almost 100000 par value, and more
than half of the total for yesterday
full session.
Two-thirds of this trading was in the
Rock Island issues. which was believed
to foreshadow an announcement, possibly
later today, of the reorganization plan.
Rock Island collaterals continued to
fall. They touched 80. a drop of more
than points and the lowest figure at
which they ever sold.
Speculative interest was at a low ebb
after midday.
Popular stocks were dealt in to the ex-
tent of only few hundred shares in an
hour. and prices scarcely moved.
Erratic fluctuations of the Rock Island
bonds continued. The debentures reacted
points. while the collaterals made up
half of their early loss.
