Washington, D. C. Attorney Gen eral Wickersham, in instructions to all United States attorneys, is urging prompt and vigorous prosecutions of any persons found violating sections 238, 239 and 240 of the new criminal code, which provide conditions under which intoxicating liquors may be shipped from one state to another, or from a foreign country into the Uni ted States. These statutes, however, do not apply to shipments entirely within state, that being a matter over which the Federal government has no jurisdiction. The laws in ques tion do not undertake to prevent the shipment of liquor into "dry" states or "dry" towns, it having been held by the courts that the government cannot interfere with legitimate in terstate commerce. The three sections named, however, are designed to be an aid to the au thorities of a "dry" state or town, in that they enable the state and local authorities to learn whenever liquor enters their jurisdiction. After its delivery to the consignee, it comes un der state or local authority, and Fed eral jurisdiction ceases. The most sweeping provision or the criminal code, to which the attorney general calls attention, requires that every package containing intoxicatirg liquor of any sort, when shipped from one state into another state, shall be so labeled on the outside cover as to plainly show the name of the con siirnee. the nature ol its contents ana the quantity contained therein, and any person who ships liquor from one state to another in violation of this section that is, ships it in packages not marked as required bhsll, upon conviction, be subject to a fine of not more than $5000. and liqior so shipped shall be forfeited to the Un ited States. Section 238 prohibits officers, agents or employes of railroad com panies, express companies or other common carriers from delivering any package containing intoxicating liquor to any person other than the person to whom it has been consigned, except up on the written order in each instance of the bona fide consignee, and also prohibits the delivery of such pack ages to any fictitious perron or to any person under a fictitious name. Vio lation of this section subjects the guilty party to a fine not exceeding $5000 or imprisonment for not more than two years, or both. This section also applies only to liquor shipped from one state into another. The third section, No. 239, provides that any railroad company, express company, or other common carrier, or any other person, who, in connection with the transportation of any intoxi cating liquor from one state to an other, shall collect the purchase price or any part thereof, before, on or af ter delivery, or shall in any manner act as the agent of the buyer or seller of any such liquor, for the purpose of buying or selling or completing the sale thereof, save only in the actual transportation and delivery of the same, shall be fined not more than $5000. GROWING FEET C03TLY. Weavers of Women's Stockings Mutt Put In New Machinery. Washington, D. C. Young women of Washington and New York have bigger feet than those of any other cities in the world. Department stores in Washington and New York are being greatly inconvenienced by the change that is taking place in the young women. It is said that these stores have asked stocking spinners in New England to add three larger sizes to their measurements, not only in the feet, but also in the calves. Stocking salesmen who have come to Washing ton lately contend that the young wo men here have abnormally large mus cles in the lower parts of their limbs. due to athletic endeavors. It will cost manufacturers about $300,000 for new forms for the spinners and knit ters. Alaska Packer Do Well. Seward, Alaska The salmon pack ing season is practically at a close now, and the canneries or the loom Inlet and Kenai peninsula have, with scarcely an exception, taken their guaranteed pack for the season. In this immediate vicinity the Alaska Packing company at Kasiloff has the largest pack, amounting to 70,000 cases for the season. Alaska reds and pinks were plentiful, but at the close of the season there was an unusually large run of humpbacks, which were packed largely for the foreign trade. Thirteen Kilted. 50 bjjred. Liverpool Thirteen persons were killed and 50 injured by the derailing of the express from Chester to Liver pool at Ditten Junction, eight miles from Liverpool. The engine jumped the rails and crashed into the buttress of a bridge spanning the line. The coupling of the car next to the engine parted and the train of nine ears sped on to the station. The leading cars crashed into the platform and were wrecked. One car was overturned and caught fire and was soon con sumed. Several bodies were cremated. Cashier Newly Accused. Abilene, Kan. Eleven new charges have been filed against John A. Flack, former cashier of the Abilene State bank, recently arrested in New York charged in connection with shortage in the bank s funds, amounting to about $70,000. The .new charges are sworn to by the state bank examiner, and are similar. Each recites that Flack changed figures in the bank's books and in .notes and certificates of deposit. Mayor Oaynor 8ud for Libel. New York Mayor Gaynnr was served with summons "in a $100,000 libel suit brought against him by Al derman Curran, chairman of the si dermanic committee investigating graft in the police department. Cur ran alleges that the mayor made re marks derogatory to his character in connection with the investigation. INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS OF OUR HOME STATE PRUNE TREE STOCK SHORT. Nurseries Unable to upp'y Demands Of Prospective Planter. Aurora Charles J. Roth, the Canby nurseryman, was in Aurora this week on business, and says there is a re markable shortage in the supply of prune trees in the Pacific Coast nur series this full. Practically every nursery in Oregon has exhausted its supply already, for the fall planting, which means that there will be no more trees on the market for a year. This indicates a remarkably heavy planting and a great revival of inter est in the prune industry. Mr. Roth has just received an order for fiOOO trees, but could supply only 500. The larger part of the orders seem to come from California, where the planting is the heaviest and the interest greatest. In this particular section, the great est activity in horticulture is in logan berries, there being hundreds of seres planted between here and Salem. Many apples, pears and peaches will also be put out this fall in the Fargo neighborhood. INDIANS TO THRESH GR.IN. Third Sawmill Will Be Built on Klam ath Reservation. Klamath Falls Edson Watson, In dian aent, has purchased a steam threshing outfit for the Klnmath res ervation. There are several antiquat ed threshing outfits on the reservation now, but the progress of the Indians in agriculture calls for more modern methods and Mr. Watson is helping them in that direction. He hopes to have the outfit here in time to do mu"h of this season's work. A third sawmill will soon be in operation on the reservation, as the two now in use are proving insuffi cient to meet the demand. The new mill will he located on fcprague river between Yainax and the agency, and will be manned by Indians. An advertisement for the sale of 1.500.000 feet, board measure, stand ing timber, on the reservation, an nounces that bids will be opened Oc tober IS. The minimum figure for p ne and sugar pine, which constitute three-fourths of the timber to be sold is $3.25 a thousand feet. On the re mainder of the timber the minimum is $1.60 a thousand. The agent has a number of offers for timber, one of which is for 400.000,000 feet. APPLE YIELD REDUCED. Early Estimates at Hood River Cut Fifty Per Cent. Hood River Representatives of four of the apple selling agencies of Hood River valley, the Applcgrowers union, Davidson 'Fruit company. Na tional Aprle company and Hood River Apple & Storage company, met ht-re to go over the returns from orchard ings rs to the crop prospect, and have given out the following figures: Reports from 228 orchards repre senting over 60 per cent of the bear ing acreage, give a careful and ac curate estimate of the r-pitxenberg crop at 125,000 boxes, or a little more than one-fourth of the total crop. Of this quantity, 75,000 will be of the extra fancy grade four tier size. The balance of 60,000 including the four and one-half tier size will be packed as fancy and choice grades. The recent additions to the storage capacity here giving a total capacity of 600,000 boxes, will accommodate within a few thousand boxes of every apple raised in the valley this year, and the selling agencies have agreed among themselves not to Sell any of the Spitzenberg crop until the market is good. Early estimates placed the Spitzen berg crop at 230,000 boxes, but drop pings have reduced these figures, much to the disappointment of the orchardists. Clover Growers Profit. McMinnville Clover growers in this section of the valley have received from one firm in McMinnville $27,000 in one week for part of this season's clover seed. The same firm shipped five cars of clover seed, of which four were of the Alsike variety. It is estimated that 50 carloads of clover seed w:ll be the output of the country stretching from Forest Grove to Independence. A record yield of Alsike clover seed is that of Charles Mitchell, near Perry dale, who harvested 11 bushels of fine quality clover seed to the acre. Sheepmen Buy Bucks. Independence Srrythe Brothers, of Pendleton, were in Independence, Mc Coy and Corvallis for a few days buy ing up all the registered bucks they could get. They succeeded in gather ing up nearly 700 head. Hawley & Son gathered 200 head in the McCoy section. AH these bucks are spring stock, having come in April, and all bat 20 head are registered. They sold for about $20 per head. These bucks are to be distributed among the big s.heepraixers at Arlington, Heppner and Pendleton Grading; Is Nearly Done, Edgcne Grading for the Eugene- Monroe section of the Portland, Eu gene & Eastern's Eugenr-I'ortland , line probably will be finished within two weeks. Out of the 24 miles of read ay, eight have been completely! graded and with the placing of con crete culverts and a few small ( bridges, will be ready for the steel. With grading camps covering the re maining work completely there prom-1 ises to be no difficulty in finishing up the work as required. There was hut short stretch that required blasting. New Market Found for Rye. Aurora A new industry that is likely to bring a large income to Macksburg farmers is the growing of rye, both for the grain and straw. Through the efforts of Fram Krax berger, offers have been received from the Portland manufacturers of horse collars for large quantities of rye straw, the prepared straw being used for the filling of the collars. Prac tically all the horse collar! now in use are made in this manner. 7865 AUTOS IN OREGON. Average One tor Every 89 Perion Nuinber Increasing. Salem In Oregon, population lilO census) 672,765, on August I. there were t6SS registered motor vehicles, of which 7Stia were automobiles. delivery wagons, 69 electric vehicles, 6 hearses, 1127 motorcycles, 66 taxi cabs, and 3S5 trucks. There were 15S5 licensed chauffeurs. Automo bile license fees to the amount f $40.40S.60 had been collected by the secretary of state. The total number of automobiles is divided as follows among the various counties; Baker, 111; Benton. 102; Clackamas, 172; Clatsop.

These figures are according to a re port compiled by Secretary of State Ben Olcott for the use cf the next leg Mature. They include ttju registra tion of machines from the firA ol Jan uary to the first of Aupttall' It is known, according to automo bile statistics, that the first six months of this year witnessed a phe nomenal increase of automobiles in the United States, which registered during that time nearly a million ma chines. The exact number of regis trations for the first six months of this year was 859.85S machines, of which 135,335 were new registrations over last year. Registration fees in this country for this period amounted to the comfortable fortune of $l,769v 873.29. Of this great number of mo tor cars in use in this country, only 31,547 are registered for commercial use. As one would suppose, New York stands at the head of the list with :-'.-407 cars, which is an increase of 8,438 since January 1. California offers a surprise by showing the next largest number, due to a tremendous increase in registration since the first of the year. Its registration on J fly 1 stood at 79,601 cars, an increase this year of 19,401. Ohio is third with 66,000 ears. Pennsylvania fourth with 52, 257 cars, and Illinois fifth with 47,101 cars. In the United States the average population to each motor car is 1 10 persons. During the year ending July 1, 1912. the car output in this country was 252,569. HOP HARVEST WELL ALONG Half of Crop Paved 'bcut McMinn ville, Detpita Rains McMinnville Hop picking in this section of the county is progressing rapidy. A number of the smaller yards are through picking. W. J. O'Dell has pickei all of tho E. Talbot yard, but has two other yards, and will not be through with them within a week. N. J. Peterson has completed the gathering of his hops, having fully third more than last year. Other yards wilt gain in proportion. On account of the continued rains, some mold has heen reported, hut nothing of a damaging nature. About a third of the grain in this county has not been threshed, and all wheat not threshed Is sprouting, and will be spoiled as to its marketable quality. T. T. Kirkwood, of Hope well, states that be is feeding his wheat in bundles to bis stock, having given up all hope of getting it thresh ed. Spring oats in some localities may be saved, and ran be used for feeding purposes. This year's weath er condition is the most damaging ever witnessed here, and is much more noticeable on account of the splendid yield and promising condition of the grain crop. HOG INDUSTRY GROWING. Oregon Rap'dly Decreasing Imports of Nebraska Swine. Portland As evidence that the hog industry is growing in Oregon, an ex portation of live hogs was made re cently from the Browndale farm, near Aurora, Or., to be used in Honolulu for breeding purposes. Another ship ment will be made from the same ranch in November. The state of Oregon has long been known as a large importer of hogs, but the last monthly report of the Port land Union Stock company shows that the ratio of importation is falling off. In August, 1911, 4468 hogs were im ported from the hog state, Nebraska, while during August, 1912, only 2332 were shipped in. Officials say that just as many hogs are used, but that gradually more and more of the supply is coming fn.m within the state and from other Northwest points. Columb'a County Crop Hurt Scapponse The steady downpour of rain has caused heavy losses to the farmers in hay, grain and fruits. A number of da;rymcn who own low land have not been able to cut any of their hay this year, as the high water kept the hay back until late and it was just resdy to cut when the rain began. Oats have been hurt as to quality, for mould has taken a big start in some fields. Prunes are reported in bad shape, having split from the excessive rain, and a large per cent of those that fell during the rain have rotted. Weather Aids Hop-pickart. Independence The fine weather is being taken advantage of by the hop pickers. Besides the large number who are encamped in the yards, wagon and auto-truck loads may be seen in the early morning hours leaving the city for the yards. A large per cent of the pickers are women and chil dren, and many of them are earning large wages. In most easel the hops will be successfully hsrvested, though some yards have been abandoned on account of mould. The grain that stood oat In the shock ii damaged. i STATESMEN FIGHT POLICE. Hungarian Parliament l Scene of UoprecedanUd Uproar. Budapest The Hungarian parlia moot, which began its owning aesslon Wednesday, was the scene of free fight between the police and the dep uties. The violence was unprecedent ed and the din of trumpets, motor horns and cowbell continued all day long. Count Stephen Tissa, president of the lower house, who was jeered from the moment be entered the chamber, surrendered the chair at S o'clock to Vice President Hoethy, but the uproar did not abate. At 4 o'clock strong fore of police entered the building. Count' Tissa, who was in the lobby, said he would summon them into the chamber itself if necessary. This eventually was done. The commandant of police called upon individual opposition deputies to leave the house. About 100 gathered in the center of the chamber, while their leaders, Count Apponyl and Count Ziehy, stood in the gangwaya and were joined there by Count An drassy and Count Semsey. who are not affiliated with any particular party All attempts to induce them to leave peaceably failed. When the police advanced to expel them a fierce strug gle ensued. In some cases it required six police men to remove one legislator. One of the arm of a deputy was nearly pulled from its socket. Count Karo lyi, who has had several experiences of the kind, struck out like a madman and succeeded in freeing himself from the police at the do.ir. He rushed back and fill fainting on a bench. After a prolonged struggle only Count Apponyl and 14 deputies were left. Tho count told the commandant that thev would leave voluntarily if the Dolice went first. This was done, TRUST MADE 1 1 M LE PROFIT. International H irvester Company Nev r Paid Dividends. Chicago Although it sold $100. 000,000 worth of farm implements the International Harvester company of America last year made only 1160, 000 In profits, or fifteen hundredths of 1 rer cent, said R. C. Haskins, th president, who testified before a ape rial examiner in the government's suit to dissolve the corporation. Questions were asked by the goverr tnent attorney to show that the Inter national Harvester company of Amer ica was merely the selling agent of the International Harvester company of New Jer't-y, and that the latter company was to make all the money "Is it not your object to buy from the New Jersey corporation at such i price as will enable you to sell so tha you will have neither hiss nor profit?" asked Edwin I. Crosvenor, special as sistant attorney general. "Our object is to buy as cheaply as wo ran and to make as much as posni hie. We trv to buy from the New Jersey company at prices we would pet from any other company," replied II askins. "Hut you never have paid a divi dend?" "No, we never have." AIR SCOUTS EFFECTIVE. Aviators Prove Value in Great Mili t.ry Mamuvars in France. Paris The French army maneuvers, which began on September II in Teur- aine and I'oitou, ami in which 120,000 soldiers purtic pated, were concluded with a grand battle in which the en tire front of the defending army. headed by Oenernl Marion, successful ly held the superior forces of the enemy in check until tho arrival of re inforcements. President ralliorea witnessed the battle traveling from point to point in an automohiie. The great feature of the mimic war was the flying scouts, who in a few hours were able to accomplish work that the cavalry would take days in doing. The military aviators were able to unmask every position and to Keep the respective commanders full v informed regarding the movements of the opposing forces. liicycle scouts also proved useful. Bluefielris Keeps Order. Plueflelds, Nicaragua Order has been restored in Illuefields, following Sunday night's threatened clnsh be tween American marines and Nicara- guans. An official investigation by the American authorities here served to clear up in a manner "eminently satisfactory" to them the attack upon sailors from the Tacoma, reported to have been the work of Nicaraguans of anti-American feelings. There re mains, however, an under-current of antipathy toward Americans. The marines are still at Camp Durell. Boston "L" Indicted.

Police Guard Cnamlter of Deputies During Wild Hesilon Madera Hissed -Vivst for Diss. Mexico City Harrel from the Chamber of Deputies by order of Pres ident Madoro, because of the noisy demonstration in which h and his ad hereuts were hissed, hundreds of real dents marched through the streets shouting disapproval of the new el ecutive and "vivas" for their exiled ruler. Mounted police were ready to dis perse the mob and the entrances to the chamber where the duputiea were in executive session were heavily iruarded. The situation is almost identical with that immediately preceding the fall of Dlat, with the exception that shifts have been made in the cast of characters. Tha disorders had as a basis the same discussion the seat inir of doubtful members of the cham tt,r when the gallery hissed Madero and shouted the praises of Diss. 1 hey were precipitated by the rejection of Francisco I'asqual Carria, leader of ih Catholic wing, whose election was under question. A deputy denounced him, saying no reason for his rejection was required other than that he was a Catholic. The fervid oratory and scenes of dis order on the floor were emulated by the galleries. One deputy, fancying himself insulted, drew a pistol to fire, when he was seised by neighbor and overpowered. Another deputy, Pedro de los San tos, declared justice and law were for gotten or confounded with personal issues and that more blood would have to be shed if necessary to secure jus lice. An organised little group matched nut of the chamber without the form atity of adjournment and left the chamber without a quorum. When the house was reconvened late in the afternoon the doors were closed to all but members. MUTSUHITO AT REST, Body of Lsts Emperor Plscsd In Mausoleum on Imperial Estate.

Mulau hito had hern exceedingly fond of the surrounding scenery and had expressed the desire that this should be his last resting place. (rrat crowds gathered sling the rusd ti Monoyama. The roadway to the imperial tomb was hung with crepe draped n white panels. A double line of soldiers and sailors Hanked the route which, cutting through the famous tea fields, had been built up to a height of 60 feet in some places and terminated in a court of honor about two miles square in front of the shrine. On the sides of the road had been placed arc lamps and brasiers, the lighta of which were visible for many miles. On the ar rival at Monoyama the casket was re moved from the train and placed on a funeral palanquin. This was boine by 100 farmers, of Yase village. In gray hemp costumes. Approaching the burial hall, the paneled door were thrown open, revealing a stand on which the casket was placed.
