Loa(1ers of the Demo cratic organisation, however, are not -.ner-enthusiastio for Lane, but at the .me time the possibility that he will eventually go Into the tight is keeping !?h r M . ln, t,,s contest for their party's Indorsement.

Jiavlug es poused the same general policy advo caied by Iine, undoubtedly would cut Into Lane's vote and divide the anti Simon strength, giving the ex-Senator a I'l-actical cinch on the election. On the ther hand, the opposition to Simon is contending that the attitude of Kellaher fhould he refrain from participating in the movement to bring out some sub (.taiitix! Republican in opposition to Sl uon In the primaries, would detract from Vis strength as an Independent candidate l.ecause of the Issues at stake-, and would rot seriously Impair the candidacy of Lane. The opposition to Simon, however has Vet abandoned its fight.

There ls considerable speculation In City Hall circles as to whether Mayor Lane is "boosting" Councilman Rush light for the Mayoralty. The Mayor himself evades the query, neither de nying: nor affirming: the rumor which has been afloat for some time.

In the interests of the wliole city. I want to make certain that there ls to be no monopoly in this regard." "I want to ask Mr. Puller." said Councilman Wills, "if the Portland Railway, IJght & Power Company has any exclusive contract with the Pacific Bridge Company, and if the streetcar company would refuse the use of its tracks to any other company."

Pacific Bridge Company that is ex clusive," replied Mr. Fuller, who is vice president of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company. "In fact, or contract may be terminated at any time. In respect to the other question asked by Mr. Wills. I will sav that the company would give the use of its tracks to any company for certain sec tions, as ls the case with the Pacific Bridge Company, but even the one company may not be able to use the tracks long, as when the traffic gets so heavy that the gravel trains will be in the way of passenger cars, we will nave to discontinue the gravel trains." The next step in the unwinding- r the municipal red tape with regard to the franchise is that it goes to Mayor Iane for his approval or disapproval. That he will veto it, seems certain- in fact, every one believes he will. It will reoulre 19 vai-ab i . . . , ....... . ij o i ii n ii ancnise over the veto, and, as 11 affirmative ..,..- were cast yesteraay, it seems en tirely reasonable to believe that the veto will not stand in the wav of final passage of the franchise, as Councilman Cellars, and perhaps Councilman Ba ker, will be present at the next regular session, and both will vote favorably.

FLOUR JUMPS AGAIN Millers Announce Increase of 40 Cents a Barrel. HIGHEST PRICE IN YEARS Patents Go Tp to $6.05 Wholesale, While Exports Are Quoted at S4.70, With Strong De mand From East. The sharpest advance recorded in flour wieS ?,,a long tlme was announced by local millers yesterday, to take effect hJ? The dvu:e i 40 cents a barrel which will bring the wholesale price of patents up to 16.05 a barrel. This will be the highest flour market known nere in a great many years. Puget Sound millers will lift their quo tations the same amount todav. While Irfe ?.1 ST08 thus climbing up in price, the lower grades are also advanc PO""8 wl be quoted today at 4..0. a rise of 20 cents a barrel The advance in flour prices follows as a natural consequence the upward move ment of wheat values. Supplies of wheat are running short all over the country. ?L , wort1-wlde scarcity Is Indicated by the high prices in the cash markets of every country. Here in the Pacific North west, stocks of wheat in farmers', deal ers and millers' hands have run very low. and while there may be no absolute famine, it is certain there will be nothing left to carry over into the new crop. The i3 millers figure that their supplies Will just about see them through. Consumption of flour has been some- ,fUta!,ed alread3r by the high prices, and it is likely the further advance will serve as an additional check on buving. Were it not for the smaller quantitv of flour being used, the supply of wheat In the Northwest would most assuredly give out before new wheat is available. " tbl,rtPCeS, tn the Ea8t are higher than at Portland, and the trade there V this Bec"on for a supply. Inquiries for prices and samples havo been received from flour brokers and millers of Chicago, Kansas City and Bos ton It Is the lower grades of flour thev want, such as are used by bakers and cracker manufacturers. As there Is no Oriental trade now in the Coast markets, i.WLU .none' since pr,ces nave sone so high it ls probable a large quantity of the cheaper flour, such as the Asiatics buy will be sent by rail to the Eastern markets. The advance announced yesterdav Is the fourth to occur in the local market since the beginning of the year. Prices today will be J1.05 a barrel higher than they were on January 1.
