MONEY NOT READILY OBTAINED Promoters Are Still Hopefnl That They Can Effect a Consolidation When Financial Conditions Are JJore Favorable. The options on Coast flour mills, re newed on January 1. nave been allowed to lapse and will not be renewed again. The promoters ot the plan to consolidate the more Important Coast flouring mills, forming one of the largest of the Coast Industrial corporations, hare abandoned the project for the present. It anything further is done with the deal It will not be undertaken for at least ten months and the scheme may be laid aside for good. The condition of the money market, es pecially in New Tork, is given as the reason for abandoning the flour mill deal. The moneyed men of New Tork are not able at present to take up a new and out side scheme, and have only turned down Jhe project for that reason. Had It been presented to them rix months earlier It Is believed the scheme would have been successful. Though the options on the Coast mills were to lapse on April 1. It was not un til last week that notification was given the owners of the plants that the consoli dation project could not be carried out. At the name time the promoters declared they would desire the privilege of renew ing the options at some later date, pos sibly about the first of next year. But there la no agreement whereby this privi lege Is to be extended and the deal. If undertaken at some future time, will have to be taken up as an entirely new scheme. Investigations, which were conducted when the flouring mill deal was proposed, have demonstrated the fact that a pur chase of the larger Coast mills Is an entirely feasible scheme and that their operation under one management could be done profitably. This showing will probably be used later If another attempt is made to form a company to control the mills. The first proposition for a combination of the Coast milling plants was made nearly a year ago. and the first option, to extend six months, lapsed on January 1. A renewal until April 1 was sought and it was Intimated strongly that the pro moters were reasonably certain of the success of their plan. But the money market. Instead of easing, became more stringent and financiers were unwilling to back the venture. An uneasiness among some of the mill owners was partially responsible for the fact that the project was dropped entirely this month. They objected to tying up their plants any longer, and held to the belief that the scheme could not be worked out successfully. While the pro moters were willing to have carried the options and continued the effort to float the company, the refusal of some of the mlllmen to continue their options made it necessary to drop all of them. The flour market Is weak, at present, and none of the Coast mills are doing a big business. Oriental stocks are too large, and reports coming from Asia show that Insects are getting Into the ware houses where flour 'has been piling up for several years, causing a heavy loss to the owners of the flour. The overcrowded condition of the Oriental market has had a bad effect upon the Coast millers' busi ness for It shuts off what was expected to be a most profitable source of busi ness. Atlantic Coast millers are handling a larger share of the South Africa and Aus tralian trade than the Pacific Coast man ufacturers. Competing steamships have been slashing rates and this has given the Atlantic millers a very favorable basts upon which to work for the trade. It Is Insisted the condition of the for eign trade did not affect the standing of the deal for a combination of Coast mills for a more economical handling of wheat would have been possible and the mills tinder one management would have paid dividends. SHE "TAGGED" ROOSEVELT Some of the Fanny Thtnics on the President's Western Trip. Here are a few unconsidered trifles sent to the New Tork Sun by Its correspondent aboard the Presidential train: One of the most hospitable citizens of Eloux Falls was Judge Fuller, of the Su preme Court. He was Introduced to the President's attention with the following Incident of his career: The Judges made a strong campaign to get the Legislature to raise their salaries. The bill met with great opposition. Judge Fuller, who had no small political Influ ence, went up to Pierre to see about it. He was met by one of the leaders of the party. "How about tbisjthlng?" said the Judge. "Judge." said the other politician grave ly, "you better drop this salary business. I tell you as a friend. Tou don't want It to go through. It Is not In your Interest." "The h I It ain't!" exclaimed the Judge, who felt deeply on the subject. "Why ain't It?" "Don't you see. Judge." explained the politician, "that If we put the salaries of the Judges up to the figure you want, the people will turn around and elect real lawyers to the bench?" The point of the story Is that the Judge dropped the' amendment at once. When the President goes through a crowd a peculiar mania for touching his clothing is sometimes developed among the women. The hands reach out from all sides, and unless the Federal guards were alert and the President rather quick to dodge on his own account, he would be fondled over like a prlie pony at every meeting place. At Sioux Falls a hatchet-faced old lady not a member of the divorce colony no hatchet faces there made a dash for him. She was shouldered off. but returned to the charge again and again. At last. Just as the President stepped into his carriage, she put a skinny claw over Senator Klttredge's shoulder and slapped the President vigorously on the forearm. Tho President never glanced around. There had been no risible evidence that he had noticed his pursuer. But he turned to Senator Klttredge and whispered In' his grimmest way: "I'm It, Senator." "Congressman." said a constituent of the Hon. Jim Tawney. who had been per mitted to get aboard the train for the run from La Crosse to Winona, past the low wooded islands of the Upper Mississippi, "there's one question I am moved to ask you." "Which Is?" said the Congressman. "Does Congress appropriate the money that pays for all this?" He waved his hand at the glittering luxury ot the dining-car and the good things which were spread out before the travelers who were at their luncheons. "That's what I want to know, Jim." "Well. I tell you." said the Congress man. "I think we do: but I'm swigged if I know Just how." One of the press association correspond ents was proudly displaying to a politely grave gathering of Dakotans the other day tee eomewnat ciasorate outfit which he had purchased in the East for use during the two weeks' loaf at Cinnabar. They never said a word until he brought out a lovely pair of russet leather riding boots, laced with red silk strings. Then Seth Bullock couldn't stand It any longer. "Those are fine." said he. with mild en thusiasm. "Where're you going to use 'emT' "Cinnabar," announced the correspond ent. "That's too bad." said Seth. with real concern in his voice. "How so?" "Tou know there's snow out there T' inquired the plainsman. "What of It?" "Why," said Seth, still aa solemn as an overfed steer: "they'll get wet." And he passed back toward the Presi dent's car. Chicago did not attain great popularity with the great mass of the membership of the Presidential party. They said that the) didn't understand the Chicago code of etiquette. For instance, one of them was entering the Auditorium on Thursday night when a large, red-faced, prominent citizen who was at the door reached out and grabbed him and shook him violently. "Who are your' demanded the red-faced man. "What are you doing in here?" "I am a member of the Presidential WHERESUNDAYCROWDSGO TESTERDAVS FIXE WEATHER BROUGHT MAST OCT. Baseball, Gypsies, City Parle and the Fair Grounds Attracted Most of the Sightseers. Portland's Sunday crowds do many things. The ball games, the City Park and many other attractions serve to draw up big crowds of people who are desirous to get a breath ot fresh air once in every seven days. Yesterday was no exception to the rule, and the spring gowns and suits were much In evidence all over the city. Sunday is a resting day In Port land for people who are compelled to sit in offices during the week or who never get out Into the suburbs at alL Sundays they stroll into the woods and out in the sunshine, glad to be alive, and glad to get a chance to enjoy t. beautiful spring day. The greatest Sunday crowd yesterday the spring clothes or at the decorated apartment stores. They walk around the blocks In a very aimless way, meeting and Jostling hundreds ot other people Just like themselves, and finally they go home to a 5 o'clock dinner, fully satisfied. Many are from the suburbs, where they live and work, and Sunday Is the only time they have to come into town to see the "sights." They grow sick and tired ot their vacant lots and trees and birds where they live and they get as much change when they walk the downtown streets aa the business man does when he goes to the woods and hills for his little outing. On Sunday afternoons there Is always a goodly crowd gathered at the corner of Second and Alder streets to listen to the Chinese religious services. Out In the street sits a small portable organ with a Chinese player, and nearby stands the Chinese minister, tall and dressed in somber black, with a Bible under his arm. On the curb stands the choir with their hymn books properly opened at the right pages, ready to sing when the organ starts. The minister reads In Chinese. In a humming tone, a chapter or two, and then delivers a short sermon. He waves his hand and the choir sings, and after the hymn the Bible Is reverted to again. He always attracts a crowd, both of Orientals and of whites, and there they I 5 ' - SO!! lssssSRTU.?"" rTSv.

The Physics building of the Washington University plant will be the Board of Lady Managers' building at "the World's Fair. It Is now being erected, and Is to be completed next June. It Is a granite structure, 178x69 feet, and two stories high. Two projecting bays, located at equal distances from the ends ot the building, and surmounted by an ornamental gable, break up the facade. The ornamentation Is maraed at the entrances, which are placed at the extreme eastern and western ends of the structure. A beautiful Gothic arch In cut stone is over each of these entrances, and above the arch Is a highly ornate oriel window, surmounted by battlements. Down-spouts of hammered copper enriched with university monograms and clusters of Elizabethan chimneys form effective points on the by Heine. The Interior arrangement of the structure has been left to the Board of Lady Managers. The building is capable of supplying four rooms, each 105 feet long by 18 feet wide. These rooms can be divided as the Board of Lady Managers choose. Apartments 3x2) feet in each of the bays mentioned may be used effectively for a variety of purposes. The building will be one ot the coolest on the grounds. Inasmuch as Its long exposure Is to the south, and free cir culation of air from south to north Is possible at all times. It is, but a short distance from the Administration building. , LITTLE LUMPY JAW Dr. McLean Sees No Cause For Alarm.

All day long the big Oregon City cars are packed with city folks who wish to spend their money on travel. With a halt-hour service and with trailers on every car. there never seems to be any diminution of the crowd.' The boat is another means of transportation, and this, too. Is always filled with human freight who wish to get a glimpse of the city by the falls, and mayhap ot the falls themselves. The scenery to be had by either route -Is pleasing, to the eye. and the SO-mlle trip up the Willamette is one of the most favored of all leading from the metropolis. Portland Heights, Mount Tabor. St. Johns and Fulton come In for good big shares of the Sunday crowds. In the afternoon the car lines to these suburbs are always "packed, generally with peo ple coming In with large bundles of greens and other woodland things for the In terior decoration of their homes. The vacant grounds afford a very attractive place to get wild flowers. Oregon grape, wild currant and many other varieties of foliage. IRON SHARES DEPRESSED rest them on suspicion.

The proprietors of the Salem fruit cannery are very highly pleased over the outlook for a good fruit crop this season and a long canning season is anticipated. Straw berries promise to be remarkably good and the cherry trees are In excellent con dition. These are the fruits canned earli est ln the season. Contracts have been made for a sntmlv ot all kinds ot small fruits and for peas. sume Its regular, place as a recreation place. For many weeks th principal attrac tion for the residents of North Port land has been the 19C6 Fair Ground. The enclosing fence has been put ln place most of the way around the tract, and hundreds of persons flock to see the first work on the great Exposition. Thur man street has been put In most attrac tive condition from end to end. and af fords a pleasant place for a Sunday af ternoon walk. After the Fair Grounds. Macleay Park is but a little way further out. and generally an expedition to the first-named place ends up in the latter.

Trading opened on Tuesday under the influence of the Northern Securities decision and rumors that American buyers were at tempting to cancel a large order for Ger man pig Iron. The latter assertion caused some selling of Iron shares, which de pressed quotations several points. This rumor, however, was denied with author ity, and Iron as well as coal shares recov ered later, under the Influence of excellent trade reports. The Northern Securities decision and the weakness ln Wall street failed to have a marked effect. Insomuch as London reported higher quotations than New Tork. The newspapers devote much space to day to a discussion of the American situa tion. The National Zeltung compared prices on the New Tork stock market to day with those of a year ago to prove that Wall street has not Indulged ln specu lative excesses, as has been often asserted ln the German financial reviews. The success of the German loan has sur prised the most sanguine. It caused heavy buying of the old loan yesterday, which rose M pfennigs as a result. General In dustrials were firm and quiet last week. One of the most marked features of the week's transactions was the advance ln the shares of ocean navigation companies upon Improving freight business. North German Lloyd rose (.65 during the week. The money market Is growing easier and tending lower. Xerrouaneas In London. LONDON. April 19. Upon resuming aft er the Easter vacation, the Stock Ex change was nervous concerning the effect Of the Northern Securities decision, and this, added to the mid-monthly settle ment, the rumors concerning Macedonia and the budget of uncertainty, depressed prices. In the early part of the week Americans were sold at a lively rate, but It was said that the effect of the Northern Securities decision had been exaggerated, and a hardening of prices followed. There was, however, very little doing In any section, with the exception of American and Argentine rails; the latter were strong. Consols were sold down, owing. It Is thought, to the near approach ot the Transvaal loan, which Is believed to be a better Investment security. Pending the Issuance of the budget on April 23. activity In any direction Is not expected, although week's closing prices throughout the list showed an Im proved tone. Saya Cases Where Persons Are Al leged to Have Contracted the Disease Date Fonr Years Back, and. Are Jfot Authentic From such Investigation as he has made recently. State Vettrlnarlan William Mc Lean concludes tha( there Is no epi demic ot lumpy Jaw ln Eastern Oregon, and that alarming reports of the preva lence of the disease among human be ings have little foundation ln fact. "About Baker City." said the veteri narian yesterday, "I found Utile to war rant alarm regarding a general spread of the disease among cattle or people. Those cases of persons alleged to have contract ed the disease cover a period of four years back, and concern Individuals liv ing from four to 50 miles from Baker City. It Is very unlikely that the dis ease attacked those victims as a result of eating meat bought of butchers In Baker City, for farmers living that distance from town, are not apt to get their meat there. "There are four alleged cases of acti nomycosis. I say 'alleged' as there Is pome dispute up there among the doctors. However, If, as stated, a microscopic ex amination was made by physicians and ray bacIII found, that would seem to settle It. It is easy to diagnose the disease by such examination. The ray fungi are so called because they form about a center like the spokes of a wheel, the enlarged end of each bacillus directed Inward. Disease May Be Transmitted. "It Is a fact that the disease has been transmitted by Inoculation from man to calves, and of course it Is logical to as sume that actinomycosis might be trans mitted from animals to man. but the best authorities say there Is no definite proof of such transmission. "It is a veiy old and well known dis ease, and is never epidemic It seems to be pretty well understood by Ihe best writers on the subject that It can only be transmitted by Inoculation: that Is. by direct contact of the germs with an abrasion of tire mucous membrane. I consider It very doubtful if the disease can be contracted by germs passing through the alimentary canal unless there Is some lesion of the mucous mem brane. "It should not be dogmatically stated by any physician ln the absence X di rect proof that the cases In Eastern Oregon were, contracted from eating dis eased meat. The ray fungoid develops primarily on vegetation, such as corn or oats, probably In low, marshy places. I do not mean to say there Is not grave danger ln eating rarely-cooked meat or drinking the unscalded milk of diseased animals, but It Is well known that ln Canada and ln Europe meat-dealers have regularly sold the meat of such, animals. Of course that Is when the animal shows only the enlargement of the Jaw In the earlier stage of the disease. The dealers simply cut off the head and use the rest. Indeed. I have known people ln their own families to kill and eat Infected animals not badly used up. "This Is no argument, however, against the destruction ot all badly Infected ani mals. They are a menace and we have destroyed them wherever,, found ln the state. "But Baker County- contains no great er percentage than any other division of Oregon. We took ln both sides ot the valley on my late visit there, and Inquired at every house along the road. Every body Informed us that there was one case of lumpy Jaw ln the valley, namely. a heifer belonging to Farmer Perkins at WIngvllIe. seven miles northwest ot Baker. These people made no effort at concealment and when we had killed the heifer. Mrs. Perkins said she was very glad It had been done and begged me to examine all the rest of their herd, which we did, without the discovery of any runner trace of the disease. Batchers Anxlons to Help. "The Oregonlan correspondent at .Baker City Insinuates that I wasn't thorough enough In my examination. Now, there Is no way ot Investigating the sale of meat tor the past four years. I found the Baker City butchers very Intelligent men, evidently desirous ot aiding us ln every way possible. They asked me to help secure for them a meat Inspector, as at Troutdale. "One of. them said to me, We would no more think ot killing a lumpy-Jawed ani mal than we would ot burning our shops. Why any of our men could tell on us at any time and It would simply mean the destruction of our business.' "I do not know of a county In the state where there Is not a case of lumpy Jaw In animals. But it can be cured If taken "ln time. The method Is to use Iodide of potassium Internally. Then we pack oakum and chloride of "zinc In the aperture which has been cut open, and finish by Injections of Iodine and alcohol In the ratio of 1 to 2 parts respectively. "When I was down on Sauvles Island, two years ago. I saw a herd of ii cat tle that were all afflicted with the disease, but In different stages. We killed five of the worst and treated the others. I went there again a month ago and found the rest had fully recovered. "The treatment I have spoken of for animals Is one that Is recommended by the State Veterinarian of Nebraska who states In his report that he has cured 95 per cent of the cases brought un der his observation. This germ Is of a vegetable origin, and consequently we may acquire the disease from the eat ing of vegetables. Where It is possible to establish a quarantine, and treat cat tle with lumpy Jaw, It would, of course, be the only proper course, but If such is impossible, they should be killed as ln the Sauvles Island case. Malignant In Unman Bclnga. "Actinomycosis Is more malignant in human beings than In animals. It attacks the glands of the throat, but principally the lungs, and Is then a very serious matter. Once started, the disease hangs on obstinately and unless vigorous meas- ABC urea are taken at the very beginning. It Is regarded aa incurable. , .
