BIG REDUCTION IN
WOOL RATES ORDERED
WASHINGTON, April 12. In a
sweeping decision handed down to
day the interstate commerce commis
sion ordered big reductions in rates on
wool, hides and pelts from every point
west of the Mississippi river to every
point east. This ruling entirely up
sets the present wool rate system,
which has been maintained since 1896.
The commission ruled that he pres
ent rates were unreasonable. The de
cision orders that the present "blank
et system" of freight charges on wool
be supplanted by graded freight rates
and prescribes lower rates for baled
wo.ol. The ruling also allows west
ern growers to bale their own pro
ducts and in addition to establishifig
cheaper carload rates, it gives inter
mediate cities the privilege of clean
ing and treatng wool in transit.
Under certain restrictions the deci
sion gives the railroads permission to
charge a lower rate on wool from the
Pacific coast to the east than from
the intermountain district. The com
plaint of the Oregon railroad commis
sion and. that of the National Grow
ers' assocation precipitated the case.
The time to read the Morning En
terprise is at the breakfast table or
a little before. -

WASHINGTON,. April 12. Miss
Clara Barton, founder of the National
Red Cross movement, died today at
her home in Glen Echo, Md. She lad
been ill for months.
Miss Clara Barton, whose interna
tional reputation as a war time nurse,
philanthropist and charity worker
placed her name among those of the
greatest women of modern times, was
born in Oxford, Mass., in 1821. Her
first occupation after graduating from
the Clinton (N. Y.) Liberal institute,
was that of a' school teacher.
- She followed this Vocation for 10
years previous to the Civil war, giv
ing up her position to go to the front
with the Union forces as a nurse. Her
capacity for work and her executive
ability soon won her recognition
among those in charge of the battle
field relief work and before the end
of the struggle she reached a high
place in the ranks of the Rea Cross.
After the war, Miss Barton, organ
ized a bureau for locating, missing
soldiers. She started this research
department with money out of her
own pocket in order to aid grief-stick-en
mothers whose boys were missing
after the great struggle.
Out of the 80,000 inquiries made,
Miss Barton was able to trace over
20,000 to a satisfactory conclusion and
thus gave the grieving parents details
of their children's death and location
of their burial places. Congress, in
recognition of Miss Barton's work vot
ed her the sum of $15,000. .
Miss Barton's labors along these
lines proved too great a tax on a
constitution tried by the rigors of field
service in the Civil war and she was
obliged to go abroad. While she was
in Europe the Franco-Pru3Sian war
broke out in 1870 and she organized
the relief corps that succored the dy
ing and wounded in the- battle fields
of Strassburg, Belfort, Montpelier,
Paris.
The brilliancy and bravey with
which she ministered to the distress
ed won her a European reputation
that rivaled the love and veneration
inspired in the United States. She
was received in the court of Queen
Auguste and was decorated with sev
eral honoray orders in recognition of
her exploits.

Wool sale dates in Oregon are very
much mixed these days and it will
take a few days to straighten out af
fairs so that buyers will know when
the stock is to be really sold.
The date at Shaniko" was recently
changed by some parties to June 6
for the first sale and June 21 for the
second sale. This date is not agreed
to by the Antelope WTool Growers' as
sociation. According to a statement
of H. C. Rooper secretary of the Ante
lope association, there will be about
1,500,000 pounds offered at Shaniko,
The wool is said to be the best ever
offered there. It is stated that about
two thirds of the wool will be mark
eted on the later date.
While the Oregon Wool Grawers'
association has named July 8 as the
second sales date at Baker, the busi
ness men of that city have asked that
the sale be made two days earlier ow
ing to the desire of a majority of the
trade there to attend the Elks' conven
tion of Portland. The special train
leaves there July 7, therefore the wool
date is unsatisfactory.
The wool market remains very quit
with no change in the general situa
tion here or in the east. Holders are
still confident of an eventful advance,
in the price.
Mohair dealers are buying in small
quantities, which indicates that there
will be a, sharp decline.

OREGON CITY BOY
Jack Lewis, the champion light
weight of Oregon City, will box six
rounds with George Engle in Oakland
next Tuesday night. Lewis has made
remarkable progress since he went to
San Francisco the first part of March,
and only a few nights ago easily de
feated Young O'Conner. He knocked
his adversary sprawling in Sigth rould
but the gong saved the lad from a
knockout. Lewis writes that the bout
was a hard one, and that O'Conner i3
one of the cleverest men he ever met.
The Oregon City man ha3 never lost a
battle and his friends think that he
eventually will work, his way to the
championship. He is scientific and
has a hard punch. His foot work also
is far above the average.
