The Word "Scat."
It seems in l:e genemiy understood
that there Is no word of Irs letters
that can he mild quicker than "scat."
Hut Just how lu it taketi to pro
nounce It is a question for modern ex
perimental psychology.
If you were a student In the psycho
logical laboratory nt a university
I you could determine thnt The chrono
. scope, an Instrument which measures
time lu thousandths of a second, tells
the time exactly. Still, a quick tongued
' man could probably rend a book
' through while a stuttering mnn said
"scat." Furthermore, to kuow how
long It takes to say "scut" Is not so
very Important anyhow. 'Kansas City

jt:urp drank champagne on tho bot
tom of tho ocean yesterday and then
u r.n ii in with death. A cm Mo
caught in a hawse pipe, had Impros-
o;ied them ror an noiir ana a nan
tit a depth of 200 feet, farther under
Dm uuvu than a diving hhcI ever
had gone before. There was no hope
of freeing the rouiea cattle, me on
lv hop,) luy In using the air In the sub
marine to force out the 20 tons of
water In the tanki to give the diver
sufficient Imoyancy to tear It looe.
If the jammed cable held, the men
would sullocate. The compressed air
was shot into the water tank. The
big steel tube rocked and groaned for
u i Irmintit nnd then wug atlll attain.
The prsoncrs looked at the pressure
Himge and saw that the vessel was
Mill fast. Lieutenant 8. B. Smith, In
.nmm.'in ordered the men to run hncV

foot craft in the nope or starting vi
bratlons that would release the boat.
Hiuirionlv tho men were thrown on
their backs and the pressure guage
fell.
Th crew of the barge overhead saw
a long fiah none shoot 100 feet into
tbo air then the submarine righted
Itself on the surface. The men were
bruised but not seriously hurt.
The mihrnarlna was drawn under the
water by a cable attached to a 10-ton
weight at the bottom of the bay, In
a special Government test to deter
mine the pressure resisting power of
the divers at great depth. The Carp
windlass was used in drawing the
cm ft down, another cable having been
left oa the weight when it was lower
ed from the barge.
The ni'ti bad orders to remain at
the bottom ten minutes. Champagne
and sandwiches had been provided
and the men drank a last glass, be
fore reversing the windlass to go to
th mirfncA. The windlass would
not work, but this contingency had
been provided for by a device to cut
the cable. The cable was cut, but

GAMBLING ON BALL
GAMES TO BE BARRED
PORTLAND. Anrll 22. fSneclal.)
All gambling on baseball games Is
prohibited by an ordinance araitea
this morning by City Attorney Grant
rt the request or a number ot aruent
nuppor'.ei b of the National game, and
recommended for passage- to the
Council. Not only does the measure
clump tbe lid on betting on games
played In this city, but on betting
here on all baseball games wherever
played. The principals in the betting
are not only held responsible but the
ordinance specifies also that any
stake-holder or bookmaker for bet
tins on ball games is liable to arrest
and prosecution.
Recently several baseball fans i
ti'rvlewed the cltv attorney and In
formed him that it waa a notorious
fact that there was much betting in
thlo rltv nn hflsoball. They said they
took a deep Interest In the game and
feared that unless some check was
placed on the gambling over the re
mits nf rnntPRta ttint It would mane
the game unpopular and In the end
deprive the eport of support of the
true lovers of the game. He prom
ised that he would prepare an ordl
nnnrp and nresent It to the Coun
cil, and It will go before that body on
Wednesday.
In his communication to the Coun
cil the City Attorney said he was
certain that the ordinance would meet
with vigorous opposition from gamb
lers and other who bet on ball games,
but that on the other hand It would
receive the hearty support of -all true
lovers ot the game and meet with the
approval of the players.
There Is a state anti-gambling law,
hut It U eeneral and in several in
stances where efforts have been made
to punish those- who bet on baseball
games, the accused were successful
In escaping punishment The ordi
nance drafted is specific in Its re
ference to baseball games and it is
said, will stand the test In the courts.
Violation of the ordinance is made
nun tunable hv a fine of not less than
$10 or more than $200, or by Impris
onment In the city jail or noi less
than five or more than 100 days.

IS
LOWER IN SOOTH
Potato market prices are again low
er In the south. A few small pur
chases were reported In tho country
by local Interests during the past 24
hours on the basis of $1.25 it $1.35
per cental for extra choice, which
would not mean above 9 1.40 for best
offerings. Under this condition It
might be possible to squeeze $l.f0 for
some extra select seed, but dealers
aa a rule were not Inclined to look
with favor upon such a high figure.
New potatoes are selling In Cali
fornia as low as 2c a pound, therefore
the outlook tar old stock Is more dis
couraging there than for some time.
While San Francisco continues to
quote nominally from $1.75 to $2.75
for Hurbanks, It Is known positively
that this price is not being received
as actual returns show. A similar
condition exists at Los Angeles, where
It Is stated that Zuckerman, known
as the representative ot George Shl
rna, the so-called Japanese potato
king has been selling Hurbanks down
to $2 per cental.
New potatoes are quoted nominal
ly at $3.00 & $4.00 per cental.
CATTLE HARKET IS
STRONG ID ACTIVE
The Portland Union Stock Tards
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the week were 1713
cattle; 71 calves: 1982 hogs: 2313
sheep and 12 horses.
Tbe cattle market was strong to
higher all along the line. There was
an active demand for everything that
was offered and as high prices would
have prevailed had the receipts been
larger. Calves sold as high as 8.75
which is a high price on any market
Tbe hog market was steady to
strong around $8.40. One sale was
made at $8.50 but the general price
was around $8.40. The market was
lightly supplied and more than dou
ble the number of hogs that were
offered could have been sold at the
prices mentioned.
Tbe sheep market was strong to
higher. Lambs at $7.35 and wethers
at $6.35 Indicate the strength of the
market

GROWERS HOLD
With f orel en markets for wool the
highest ever known and with- less'
stock in America than for many years.
the situation in tne woolen trade is
mixed. The apparent lack of interest
that tha big buyers are showing In
the trade is evidently an actea part
for the sole purpose of influencing
quotations downward.
That some weeks ago less than 20,
000,000 pounds ot old wool were avail
able in the United States has been
the assertion of an official of the'
National Wool Growers' association,
who seemingly, was in a postltlon, as
good as any, to know where the stock
was held.
Oa every hand the various Interests
are apart in their views. There la de
termination on the part of leading
hnvnro in tha. pant to pheck any DOS-
sible advance even at the cost of be
ing forced to pay more for their sup
niipa hv waltine. On the other hand
growers are showing grim determina
tion not to let go until they secure
better values. Each side claims to
be well fortified, but growers are
seemingly in a postlon where they can
force any reasonable price.
Thpro la not enoueh WOOl for man
ufacturers to hold back their purchas
es for any great length of time as
early orders must be nuea.
