NO GRAIN TO SEND ABROAD Hops for Increase Depends Solely on Spring Crop France Only Country Without Shortage. Other Grains Also Injured. CHICAGO. May 12. (Special.) Feverish clamor for wheat in all pita, in the face of Improved climatic conditions, is ex plained by special dispatches from trust worthy experts In all wheat districts. The condition Is almost unparalleled, and the cry of "dollar wheat" Is well founded. Those who are supposed to have the best Information say It will go far above $1. Government reports that the Winter wheat harvest, due to begin In about aix weeks, will be 100,000.000 bushels short, are borne out by special investigation. The situation is most remarkable. With the possible exception of France, every wheat country is reporting a shortage. At the same time, the population of the country demands 60.000,000 bushels more wheat than it did five years ago, when there was a shortage. Indications are that this country will have no wheat to sell abroad. Reserves are fairly well exhausted and the public faces a condition a stern condition not a theory. Due to Frosts and the Green Bug.' First, more than 3.500.000 acres sown to wheat last Fall have been abandoned. The crop In all sections has been subject to severe drought and there has been kill ing freezes, owing to a lack of snow to protect the grain. Still worse Is the de vastating march of the "green bug," the worst enemy wheat has encountered In years, and which still Is working deadly havoc over enormous areas In the West ern belt. The Government Is optimistic regarding the ravages of the green bug. Private advices from men who have traversed the fields say that the damage has been underestimated. What hope there is now centers in the Spring wheat crop. The backward Spring, continued cold and unfavorable weather has delayed seeding to an extent where this hope Is now trembling In the bal ance. Providing nothing Interferes further with the seeding, there will be a decrease In the area sown to wheat and the crop will mature so lata that there Is the ex treme possibility of severe damage by frost. Shortage In All Graln"crops. Facing these facts squarely, it will be seen that this country will not be in po sition to supply the enormous export de mand. Foreigners realise this, and have been snapping up the reserves greedily. This wheat Is now being moved to the seaboard. When these shipments are completed the new crop will find the gran aries empty. British Columbia and Argen tina are In the same condition. Both these- countries, like the United States, harvested unusually heavy crops last year. The conditions which have affected wheat so adversely will. In some ratio, put their blight upon corn and oats, and the minor grains. From present appear ances there will be a general shortage In all crops. NEW NAVIGATION AIDS SET Covernment Steamer Quadra Ends Cruise at Victoria. VICTORIA, B. C, May 12. After a cruise extending ever 10 weeks the Gov ernment steamer Quadra returned to port today from North British .. Columbia waters. Many new aids to navigation were established. Including a series of range lights to mark the channel at Prince Rupert, the proposed Grand Trunk Pacific terminal. The steamer Monara arrived tonight at William Head quarantine station with 291 Japanese who reached San Francisco from Yokohama by the steamer China. The Japanese passengers of the steamer Onafa, quarantined on arrival from the Orient 18 days ago because of smallpox on board, will be released tomorrow. .SELFISH POLICY IN C0REA Marquis Ito TJrges That Japan Fur ther Interests of Other Nations. VICTORIA. B. C. May 12. The steamer Tangtse which arrived from Yokohama, brings the news that Marquis Ito, resident-general In Korea, In a recent speech at Seoul, rebuked the selfish policy of Japan In the Hermit Kingdom. He eald no policy that was entirely selfish was ever successful, and urged Japan to further the Interests of other countries in Korea as well as her own. News was also received that China Is about to send a number of military ca dets from North China to the French military school at St. Cyr for training. On return, the cadets will be drafted to different divisions of the Chinese army. FORAKER RENEWS FIGHT (Continued From First Pa-.) months has excited so much interest as that of the Joint meeting of the Republi can State Cantral and state executive committees to be held at Columbus on Wednesday of this week, for the pur pose of reconciling clashing political in terests. The friends at -Eaeretary of War Taft. Jed by AjU VorySi pX Columbus, and Congressman Burton, of Cleveland, ac cording to authorized statements of those in the confidence of the Taft organization, will Insist on an unqualified Indorsement by the committee of Secretary Taft as the people's choice for President, and will stubbornly oppose the linking of that ar rangement with the prospective contests for either United States Senator or Gov ernor. Congressman Burton, who left here to night for St. Louis, where he is to deliver an- address tomorrow, positively declined to make a definite statement as to his position In connection with the Senator ship. Close political friepds of Mr. Bur ton say It will be probably several weeks before a formal 'announcement whether he will become a candidate againBt Sena tor Foraker will be made.

E PULLMAN SLEEPER ON EXCCR- SION TRAIN IS DERAILED. Portland Business Men Returning Home Meet With Accident on Shaniko Branch O. R. & N. One of the three Pullman sleepers of the Portland business men's excursion spread the rails and ran off the track near Biggs on the Shaniko branch of the O. R. & N. early Sunday morning, as the excursion train was nearing the main line of the railroad on the homeward run. The train was running slowly and a brakeman quickly threw on the air brakes, bringing the train to a stop within 100 feet with out damage or much Jar to the. car. The two dozen passengers were trans ferred to a day coach of the train and the party continued the run to Portland. The Inmates of the two other sleeping cars did not know of the derailment until near this city. Had the train been running fast there might have been a bad accident - from probable plunging of the derailed car off the embankment. With It would have plunged also the dining-car, which was behind the derailed sleeper and which contained a number of colored waiters and cooks. The derailed sleeper and the diner were detached from the train and the four remaining cars arrived In Port land at 8 A. M. On the derailed sleeper were the following men, who had no further sleep during the Journey: William McMurry, Dr. J. W, Morrow, R. M. Dooley. Jr.. S. M. Luders. R. E. Sewell. Dr. C. W. Cornelius, C.

Mr. Houser entered the room and found his wife on the bed with a re volver In her hand. She was uncon scious, but breathing: faintly. Physi cians were quickly summoned, but medical attention was without avail. She died after lingering unconscious for several hours. Mrs. Houser had been In a very nervous state for the past three or four months. Members of the family are at a loss to assign a reason for her act.

TONS OF FLOWERS USED Sources of Aromatic Oils Varied and Numerous Orange Plant Most Profitable to American Distill ers Used by the Ancients. BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN. WASHINGTON, . May 7. (Special Correspondence.) About ten years ago some enterprising American did some figuring and discovered that the coun try was Importing over J2,00D,000 worth of perfumery every year. It was then decided to see what the United States could do toward making her own per fumes, not only to save the $2,000,000, but to make possible other millions besides. A careful Investigation was made, climatic and geographical con ditions were studied, and a census was taken of all the Indigenous plants and of those that could be Introduced, to see what could be expected of them. The report on the possibilities of this new industry In America was ex ceedingly cheerful and encouraging, but little has' been done to verify the Investigators' faith in such a project. The only Important essence made In the United States Is oil of peppermint, manufactured at the rate of about 150,000 pounds a year, an amount that equals just half Japan's output. Other oils made in small quantities are wormwood, wintergreen, spruce and witch-hazel, the value being about $50.1,000 a year, which is only one twelfth the value of the manufacture, of the same articles In the little town of-Gracse, the perfume center of South east France. where ID.000.000,000 pounds of tflowers are converted Into extracts and essences every Summer. Perfume From Cabbage Rose. The climate of this country com pares most favorably with that of the flower centers of the old world. The roses that grow on the southern slopes of the Balkans and. between the Marl time Alps and the Mediterranean are easily rivaled by those of the Southern States in this country. The roses most used for making the celebrated attar of roses are the red damask of Bul garia and the hundred-leaf, or cab bage rose of Provence, In Southern France. An expert on rose culture In Augusta, Ga., declares that the Glolre de France rose has the true odor of attar of roses, is a perfect bloomer, hardy and productive, and could be made the source of a remunerative manufacturing Industry. Oil of gera niums is made from the three varieties most common In all American gardens the rose geranium, the skeleton leaved and the nutmeg. All we usa comes from the distilleries of Algiers, Reunion Islands, Spain, Corsica and Italy. It Is claimed that Florida's fa cilities for geranium culture are vastly superior to those of Algiers. The orange Is the most profitable plant to distillers and manufacturers of perfumes.. The leaf, the flower and the rind of the fruit are all used In some branch of the art, and this tree flourishes on many thousands of American acres. At Santa Barbara. Cal., the manufacture of neroli. or orange slower oil, was attempted some years ago, and an effort to get a good extract of violet, rose and tube-rose was alS3 made, but these failed. Sci entists say It was because Xhe experi ment stations were too near the Coast, where the flowers were affected by the Alaska current. Further inland the conditions are better adapted to such work. Los Angeles experiment ers have reported pleasing success in making oil from lemon, lime, orange and eucalyptus. Orange Blossoms Best for Perfumers On the San Mateo farm, near Jack sonville, Fla.. E. Moulle started a per fume farm in 1880 and proved the vast possibilities In that line' for America. The products of the orange and lemon were successf ully distilled, oil was made from lemon verbena, and the process of enfleurage tried with many of the more delicate plants. The orange flowers of the Louisiana Coast are declared to be the best In America for perfumers' use, and among the best in the world. Lavender is grown generally In the Uni ted States, but not for commerce. Califor nia and the dry lands of the West could be made to yield a most profitable crop of It. Thyme, used so extensively In the manufacture of soaps, has become fairly well naturalized In America. France dis tills 90,000 pounds a year from her wild growth, and the United States imports about 46.000 pounds. Eau de cologne can not be made without rosemary, the stim ulating effect In the water being Impart ed by this plant. It Is only a rare guest In our gardens, yet can be gijpwn in abundance wherever there are calcareous soils. For five consecutive years the Uni ted States imported orris root at the rate of 238,000 pounds a year, the value run ning up to $30,000, yet the Iris of which It is a part is so adaptable to our cli matic conditions tftat In Virginia, as the "blue flag," it escapes from the gardens, and wanders wild over the fields and marshes. , The annual importation of oil of al monds, an essential in the manufacture of fine soaps. Is about 6000 pounds, the price from $1.50 to $3 a pound. This is made from the bitter almond, which grows hardy here from California and Florida to Michigan, yet has never been cultivated for this purpose, its Califor nia use being as a stock for the sweet almond and as a pollenizer for sweet al mond flowers. Fennel grows wild on the Potomac, yet the annual cost of import ed caraway and fennel oils exceeds $75, 000. Anise and coriander are easily nat uralized In America, but are not raised for profit. Cassie, the "opoponax" of the South, and the indigenous "hulsaehe" of Texas, is named by agricultural experts as a profitable plant. Aromatic Oil From Golden Rod. Oils from sassafras and wintergreen have already proved a profitable Industry In parts of the United States, and the oil distilled from the red or pencil cedar has proved superior to that from the famous cedars of Lebanon. Tuberoses, violets and yellow Jasmine have all had their .test in American manufacturers' hands and have proved that their essences are just as good as those of foreign make. Wild gin ger, known as the Canadian snakeroot, yields an aromatic oil that can be used In strengthening perfumes, the sweet-leaved-goldenrod distills into an oil that smells like anise, and the sweet bay and swamp laurel all offer great possibilities in the manufacturing line.

The artificial va nillin, of which we export 25,000 pounds a year, is found in benzoin, assafoetlda, beet sugar, asparagus, pine resin, Peru balsam and potato peels, the majority of which can be found In America. Scientists interest ed in the development of the perfumery industry In this country have recom mended Its manufacture as a most In teresting and lucrative occupation for farmers' wives and chlldren- The rais ing of many flowers and plants would afford healthful out-door occupations, and the distilling of the liquids would only be a revival of the delicate tasks that the women of England. In Eliza beth's time, and of America In colonial days, all followed to a certain extent, each housewife making her own es sences and perfumes. How the Oils Are Obtained. The processes of obtaining the oils and extracts are most Interesting. The oil from orange and lemon peels Is ob tained by running the peel through a press, or by rubbing -it In a cup stud ded with sharp needles, or by squeez ing the peel between the fingera and collecting the oil In a sponge. The odors from flowers are obtained by distillation, by maceration or enfleur age. The distilling follows the same process that has obtained for ages with little change. In maceration, the flow ers are bruised and immersed in heated grease, and after the greaBe has ab sorbed a full amount of the odor It is mixed In a great churn with alcohol,, which promptly robs the grease of Its sweet burden, and the result is an "ex tract." The more delicate flowers, such aB vio lets and jasmines, give off a most un pleasant odor when bruised, so must be more carefully handled and the odor taken out by the enfleurage process. Sweet lard that has been purified until it is .odarless is spread cold on a glass tray and thickly overlaid ' with violets, rose petals or other delicate flowers, and set away until the odor, has been ab sorbed. This process is repeated until thousands of blossoms have been used, then the-lcohol Is sent to receive this breath of Araby's perfume- for miladi's boudoir. Synthetic chemistry has dis covered many perfumes that do not come from the flower for which they are named. Lilac Is made from terpinole, a form of turpentine, violet from lonlne, an oil of lemon or lemon grass, helitrope from "extract of pepper and oil of sassa fras, hyacinth from benzyl alcohol. Its Tse Among the Ancients. Perfume has been used since the cre ation, either for personal gratification o as incense in worship. Cleopatra Bad the sails of her vessel dipped in perfume, and incense was burned along the banks of the Nile as she passed.

Solon and Socrates forbade the sale of perfume in Greece, but Helen of Troy set the" style there, and later when the fashion spread to Rome each matron had a special slave to perfume her, though Ceasar and Cras sus discountenanced the practice. The most costly perfumes were in Elizabeth's time, but the use of it for men has stead ily declined since Beau Brummell's days, when he wrote against It. Charlemange had his palace walls dally washed in per fume, and the Empress Josephine's bath was of milk poured hot over a basin of violets. The use has spread more to the masses now, and is In reach of all. The famous balm of Gilead, however, Is so rare that only the Sultan may use It, and. the famous gossiping centers , of the Greeks, the perfumers' shops, have given place to more prosaic cafes and gardens.

NEW YORK, May 12. The flooding tide of immigration to American shores runs ceaselessly on, and new high-water marks for the Influx of Europe's migratory hordes are being recorded every month in the port of New York. , Already May bids fair to Outstrip the April record, when 133.462 Immigrants poured through the gateway of New York Into the country. Five transatlantic liners brought in over 5000 yesterday, and officials at Ellis Island say that there are no signs of cessation of this European Invasion. The well-spring of this human stream lies principally in Southern and Middle Europe, while another but lesser current has Its source In the Scandinavian and German states. Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Lower Russians now supply more than one-half of all the Immigrants seek ing homes in this country. Every fourth alien examined at Ellis Island is Italian, while every fifth newcomer is from the Austrias. A score of years ago the headwater of foreign immigration were in Ireland and Germany. But now the source has entirely changed. Th industrial fields of the United States still absorb the greater part of the foreign outpour, and several states Massachusetts, Connecti cut, New Jersey.
