Standard Oil Company (CALIFORNIA) La (Inimlt' Portland, June 25. (Special) Sev eral Inquiries have come from the in terior recently regarding the prob able effect of the Panama canal upon this year's wheat prices and freight charges to Europe. . ' ' The fact that it will be practically impossible for sailing vessels to use the canal to advantage and that only 9 very small amount of steamer space has as yet been chartered, local grain exporters were today of the opinion that no benefits whatever would be derived by the producer. Most of the ships that will be used this season in transporting the Pa cific Northwest grain orep to Europo have already been chartered and there, hts been hO provision whatever made regarding any lowering of rates pro dding the canal is in operation. , Those that have chartered steam-era- are making an attempt to secure :i reduction providing the big ditch U L'sed and are now negotiating with the owners regarding this. The fact that few steamers have 'been fixed there. i ire eliminates any chance of the grain securing any benefits, as sailing ves sels always carry cargoes for less' money than the steamers. . There is practically nothing doing in the spot wheat market at this time, as there is really nothing being of fered. A. small amount of contracting. h reported in the interior for early delivery new crop with reports as high as 71c bushel at Pendleton. No late business has been confirmed. But for a few minor markings the market prices remain about the same today. Some of the fruits as cher ries and peaches show a few cents cheaper. . Cherries are beginning to arrive in market in quantities and are being sold by the pound rather than by the box as the earlier varieties were. 1 20c; wholesale 16. retail 20c; flank boll 12 l-2c; kidneys Set kidney stew, 12c; sirloin steak 25c; tenderloin steaks 25c; T-Bone steaks 25c; rump roasts 18c; round steak 20c; hind quar- ' tar atnara 16e; hind auaj-tar rows 15c: front quarter steers 14c front quarter cows 13c; hog, half dressed 13e; pork loin chops 20c; pork loin whole 16c; comb pork 14c; shoulder pork, whole 13c; link and bulk sausage 15c; ham burger 8c; steer loins 18c; cow loin 17c;. mutton legs 18c; mutton rib chop 20c; mutton loin chop 20c: muttoa steak 8; mutton stew 12 I-2c; whole mutton 14c; half mutton 14c; veal round steak 25c; veal loin cuts 25c; veal rib choos 20c: veal sho. steak 20c; veal stew 15c; half veal 16c; araoked ham, whole 23c; brk. bacon light 25c; brk bacon sliced 30c; salt pork 18c; sliced ham 25 to 30c; boiled hams 35c; boiled ham sliced 45c; smoked should der 18c; lard i&c; liver 6 to 8c; tongue 15c; hearts 8c; salmon 20c; halibut 15c; smelt 10c.

" rha "Foreign Devil" Used a College Yall as a Battle Cry. Ca board a launch on which I war sailing up the Yangtze river were ibout thirty Chinese soldiers of such a raganiumn appearauce as to excite my suspicions, but fortunately without their rifles. As eveuiug of the first day came on they crowded around the small deck bouse and demanded of the native agent to know what toe "for elgn devil" was doing here. Now, 1 bad been cleaning aad oiling the vari ous parts of my stimple machine gun during the day. Before nightfall I drew the blinds of the deckhouse and, quickly assembling the gun, slipped In a loaded be'.t, 1 uow told the agent, who was white with four, to tell these fellows that this "foreign devil" "belong crazy" and also "hun lull!" (very Herce) nnd as a sort Of warning to "keep off the grass" I open ed the door and let off a strlne vS about fifty shots into the air. at th same time giving the Yolo college yell, which was the handiest warcry I couid think of nt the moment. Whether it was the Information Im parted by the ugent, Chen, the shots or the Yale cheer 1 cannot say, but all hands crowded to the other end of the launch nnd remained at a respectful distance until Nnnchnng was reached, to the great amusement of the Chinese captain and engineer, who. however, hud (Wem ed It good policy to allow the iiahsengers to settle their own disputes without Interference. This Incident Is pleasant to remember, but at the time I was badly scared. From "Drumming Revolutionary China." by Bnrtlott G. Yung, in World's Work. Marrying the Whole Family. "I am marrying Tom, but I am not marrying his whole family," sold a bride the other day. Yes, but you are. When you get married you do coma into relationship with bis whole fami ly, and you can't help yourself. 1 have known a number of cases in which some "sniffy" bride or bride groom tried to ignore certain mem bers of the "married into" family and later bad to be closely connected with them. There was civility on both sides, but the early break could never be quite covered up, though the one who made it would have given any thing to have it forgotten. When you get married, unless there ore actual criminals there whom duty would for bid you to recognize, accept cordially all of tho family into which you are going.
