The pressure which Is reported at the East, Middle- West and South for currency for moving the crops Is not even slight)' felt in this part of the "West. In Oregon and "Washington, and, in fact, on the entire Pacific Coast, the medium of ex chango is gold, and paper cuts little figure in transactions. Silver is used, and 3io objection is raised to it so long as the country is on the gold basis. If a buyer should undertake to pay an Ore gon farmer -with notes he -would probably be told to corao around another day with the gold, not that one dollar is not as good as another under the present mone tary system, but that the farmer Is used to gold, and prefers it. An offer of gold to an Eastern farmer -would be met "with the emphatic suggestion that paper Is preferable, "because it is less bulky and more convenient to carry. The annual scurry for "notes for crop movement is entirely local to the country east of the Mississippi River. There Is no shortage of gold on the Pacific Coast for crop movement or any other purpose. How ever, the demand for gold is greater than ever before, simply because there is more business than at any other time in the history of the Coast, and conse quently greater need for money. So long as the East adheres to its prejudice against gold and silver because ot their bullclness. It -will have the annual scare about currency shortage. Ana so long as the Pacific Coast takes gold and sil ver as they come, and. paper it necessary, it need not t orry -whether the note, sup ply be large or small. Arranged for Republican Rali.t. A meeting of the ilcKlnley and Roosevelt Republican Club, of the East Side, -was held last evening at the office of Justice Vreeland to perfect its organization and arrange for the Republican rally Satur day night. The attendance was not as large as expected, but the organization of the club -was effected by the election Of J. W. Stapleton as president, and J. I Wells, secretary. Then followed a dis cussion of the rally. It was decided that every effort should be made to get out a crowd on that occasion. The address will 156 delivered by C. W. Fulton, of Astoria, who is regarded as one of the most forci ble speakers in the state. On motion, a committee of arrangements was appoint ed, consisting of J. B. Easter, General Owen Summers, Justice T. W. "Vreeland and I. H. Wells. Already a good quar tet has been engaged to furnish music for the rally. A number of schemes were discussed as to the best method of call ing out a. large audienco to hear Mr. Pulton, but the committee was left to its own resources. The hall secured for the rally isJn the Hawthorne building, on the southwest corner of East Morri son street and Union avenue. Bird Slater Punished. Gus Dan golse, the Frenchman arrested for shoot ing robins, was arraigned in Justice Kraemer's court yesterday and entered, a plea -of guilty. Tlie Judge gave him a talking to, and explained the contempti ble nature of his offense in shooting bene ficial birds, which there was an associa tion here to protect, and ended by sen tencing him to pay a -fine of ?100 and to "be confined in the county Jail for seven and one-half days. This will probably liave a good effect on a number of Dan golse's countrymen, who have been in the habit of shooting larks and song birds "for years robbing people's trout ponds and catching trout out of season for years. Gus Emerick was also tried before Judge -n.i-u.emer lor snooting pheasants out of season. The evidence of his guilt was quite conclusive, but there was some hard swearing done in his favor by three of 3ils associates, and the Judge took the case under advisement. MtJLTNOMAHs Elect Captain. Martin Pratt, one of the ablest players of last year's Multnomah football team, was last evening elected to captain the Multnomah eleven during the coming season. At the meeting of the football men, the presi dent of the club, W. M CaKe, presided, and the following candidates were pres ent; Rasch, Pratt, Dr. Millard Holbrbok, Sam Holbrook, Dr. Meyers, Kerrigan, Dr. Nottage, .Wood, Stiles, Harmer, McKIn non, McMillan and Holman. Downs, Rusk and Dunbar, other promtnent can didates, were unable to be present. Plans for the season were discussed, the men measured for suits, and the captain unan imously elected. Pratt played tackle on last year's team, and has the enthusiasm and knowledge of the game to make an abJB captain.

A jolly, happy-go-lucky German called at the City Hall yesterday to pay the license on his dog. He said he had talked the matter over with the dog, which was an intelligent animal, and the dog .had said that the license amounted to less than a cent a day, and his services were worth more than that. He had therefore concluded to put up the $3 and give the dog a chance. End of the TJennis Tournament. The finals of the mixed doubles held over from the handicap tennis cournament Tvere won by W A.

Oregon MinlngStock Exchange io:80A M. Strike Has No Local Bff'ect. The local coal market has pot tieen affected by the strike in the Pennsylvania coal fields. "I have been frequently asked," said a local coal dealer yesterday, "what the effect of the Pennsylvania strlko would be on the local coal market. In the East prices are already Jumping up, and there is every prospect of scarcity in the anthracite coal rreld. Coal men and Ice men are supposed to be especially watchful for a chance to put up their prices, but on- the Coast prices will not, be affected. In the first placo, Portland is not a great coal-using community. "Very little coal is used for fuel in Port land, comparatively speaking. In the second place, very little anthracite coal comes Into our market. Most of the coal used here Is the lignite coal from Wash ington, and the bituminous coal from British Columbia and Australia, and a little English cannel coal. Prices still range from $S to $15 a ton for the va rious grades, and there, they are likely to remain all Winter." Liquor Dealers Arrested. W. E. Peachem and W. F. Matthews, residents of the East Side, were arrested yesterday on a warrant issued out of, the United States Court to answer to a charge of having sold liquor without having paid the special United States tax. The par ties were engaged in the drug business In Albany some time ago, but sold out, and are now residents of Portland. They had paid license for their store, but started a branch store, and sold liquor at both places on the one license. They were brought before United States 'Commis sioner E. N. Deady yesterday and gave ball for their appearance to answer to the charge. Small Eires. Two fire alarms were turned In yesterday from box 142, and the department turned out in each in stance to put out small fires. that, could easily have been extinguished by" some one with presence of mind. The first happened at 4 o'clock in the afternoon at the Oregon Hotel, First and Davis streets, caused by the overflow from a tar kettle in a kitchen. There was no damage. Last evening at 9 a lace curtain in a building at Second and Couch streets caught fire from a lamp and blazed up to the celling, doing $10 worth of damage before It was extinguished. Galveston Fund Contributors. Among recent contributors to the fund for the relief of the Galveston sufferers are A. B. Stelnbach, who gave $25, and North Pacific Lodge, No. 314. Independent Order B'nai B'rith, which gave $20. IfOW COMES THE HOBO. He Hopes to Spend the Winter in tlie City. With the return of Fall weather the hoboes are again drifting city-ward. "Every freight train that comes Into Portland carries one or two of the gentle men of leisure now," said a railroad man yesterday, "and the brakles are having a rough time dealing with them. When they travel in bunches this way they are not so likely to be noticed or molested by the trainmen, who are given to treat ing the lone travelers with scant court esy. "You should see how sleek and healthy they look. Many have been hibernating in haystacks up the valley. Most of them are clad In misfit overalls and cast-off farm clothes. " 'White-whiskered Charlie' and 'Sawed-off Pete,' 'Hungarian Oscar and all the old crowd are flocking back I asked one of them how he hud en joyed" the Summer, and he answered: "Now does yez really, tink I had a slow time?

" Chief of Police McLnughlan. when asked yesterday about the annual influx of hoboes and the prospects of the appear ance of the festive footpad in his old haunts again, said: "We will pursue our usual tactics of rounding the hoboes up as soon aa they strike town. 'Work or leave in 24 hours, will be our orders, again this Fall. .The flow into the city has just started again, and as the nights grow cold and the Fall rainy season sets In the rush will be greater. The hoboes expect to Ho In the city occasionally, striking a snap or an easy job, and sallying out for an occa sional hold-up, but there Is a whole lot In getting the jump on them, and taking care of them as they come In." MOURNED IN PORTLAND. Friends of Morris Sternfels Spealc Kindly of Him. News of Morris Sternfels death in New York was received with many regrets yesterday In Portland. During his busi ness career here he made numerous warm friends. His kind disposition, warm-hearted generosity and sterling qualities was spoken of by every ac quaintance. His former associates In the firm of Ldpman, -Wolfe & Co. remember Mr. Sternfels as one of the best of men. "He was almost too kind-hearted for a business man, too charitable, too sym pathetic," said Adolph Wolfe, vice-president and manager of the firm, list even ing. '.'Mr. Sternfels possessed admirable qualities. None has a word against him, for he was everybody's friend. He would arise in the middle of the night to do a person a favor. It is very rare In deed that one so tender and needful of others Is found." SAPHO" TONIGHT. The Crawford Stock Company will pre sent Daudet's Immortal plaj-, "Sapho," tonight at the Metropolitan.

NEW BLANKET ORDINANCE MAY BE PASSED BY THE COUNCIL TODAY. '" Tf ' - It Provided for Taxing Firms Ac cording; to the Amount of Busi ness Done. An adjourned meeting of the Common Council will be held for the transaction of ahy "business that may come before it. The principal business- will probably be considering and acting upon the new 'blanket license ordinance, which, if all goes well, may be passed The blanket ordinance passed some time ago was ob jected to by many because it Imposed a flat license on various kinds of business, without regard to whether the amount of business done was large or small. It was intimated that an ordinance taxing busi nesses on the sllding-scale plan, so that each dealer should pay a license propor tionate to the amount of business done, would not be objected to, or, more prop erly speaking, would not be so objection able. The committee on licenses has therefore prepared a new ordinance, under which business men will only be required to pay license according to the amount of business they do, and it is hoped that this will prove entirely satisfactory to all con cerned. It will, however, probably be found that as soon as the old ordinance Is repealed the new one will be objected to on general principles. The new ordinance Is practically com pleted and ready to be acted upon, and, it Is generally supposed, will be passed today. There Is, however, a possibility that it may not be taken up at all. There is a rumor in the air to the effect that the County Assessor is waiting to see what revenue the blanket license ordi nance is likely to produce before he levies the assessment on personal property, and that It Is his intention to assess per sonal property accordingly, and make tho valuation low enough to offset the amount raised by the license ordinance. The As sessor has never told the license commit tee that he intends to do this, but some of the Council accept the rumor as cor rect, and In order to checkmate the As sessor, would be willing to defer pass ing any blanket license ordinance until December, so that it would go into effect at the beginning of the year. The Asses sor would be obliged to have his valua tion made before that time, and could not tell how low to make It in order to offset the license ordinance. It is to be supposed that the Assessor will make an honest assessment, accord ing to law, and It seems incredible that he should take any license the Council may levy Into consideration In making his valuation. The Council Is aware that he has no right to do so, and he probably will not attempt such a thing, but some of the Councilmon have an Idea that he may. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Hoyt'i "A Blnclc Sheen" Will Come to Marqnain Thursday and Friday. "A Black Sheep" is one of those jolly entertainments that everybody wants to see, and shou'd see. Director Wright has a knack of securing the best comedy people In America, and really seems to have surpassed himself in' the company he has engaged this season to portray the many quaint characters. That "A Black Sheep" will again b& presented here, Thursday and Friday evenings, under the personal direction of Fred E. Wright, who has been for so many years Mr. Hoyt's right-hand man, Is sufficient guarantee that the piece will be presented stronger and better than ever before. For good looks, and fine figures, it -would be hard to get another bevy of youns women to excel In these qualifications the young damsels .who gambol with Hoyt's "A Black Sheep." Boston Lyrics at Cordray's. "I think that I have at last secured the kind of operas which the public want," says Colonel Thompson, of the Boston Lyric opera company, which comes to Cordray's next week, "and I am safe in saying that my efforts to please tne public win be fully appreciated. I do not, really, believe that there is another opera company that .can present such a list of attractions as I shall offer with the Boston Lyrics. They are all record breakers, and while the presentation of them has cost a large amount of money, indeed, somewhere In the neighborhood of $20,000 for scenery, costumes, electrical effects and other necessary surroundings to great productions, I feel satisfied that I shall be fully repaid in the long run. The public now demands special scenery for each production. They will not stand for the ordinary opera-house stock scen ery any longer. Everything must be up to date, and the manager who under stands that fact will win the public pat ronage. My productions for this season arc: Frank Daniels' wonderfully unc tuous comic opera, 'The Idol's Eye,' which will be the opening opera; Marie Tempest's famous comedv production, 'The Fencing Master'; De Wolf Hop per's excruciatingly numorous 'Wang.' Many of the old favorites, such as Jose phine Stanton, Maude Leekley, Daisy Howard, Katherlne Goodrich, John Hen derson, Henry Hallam, George Kunkel, Frank. Maslin, Alex Joel, Charles Van Dyne, and 'mostly all of the favorite choruses, remain with me. The newcom ers will be Bertha Davis, one of the sweetest-voiced sopranos on the operatic stage, late of the Alice Nellson opera company; Sara Carr, the famous contralto and character artist, late of the De Wolf Hopper" company." "The Oninm Kins:." The phenomenally successful sensation al Chinese play, "King of the Opium Ring," which has been presented to a succession of crowded houses at the Academy of Music, New York, for 150 nights, comes to the Metropolitan Theater one week, commencing Sunday, Septem ber 30. Few plays have been seen on the stage that reflect Chinese character as it is. True, the Chinaman was introduced on the stage many years ago, as a comedj part, but seldom, If ever, has he been shown as a type of a nation, reflecting national customs, Institutions and man ners. In "King of the Opium Ring" this Is effected for the first time. The plot is laid in the heart of San Francisco's Chinatown time about jrSOO. The first act shows Dead Man's Dock, with the Golden uate in tne custance. The second act represents the Chinese quarters under ground; the home of the highbinder, and the headquarters of the smugglers in which the opium fiends are seen practic ing the terrible vice that of smoking the dread drug. The third act shows the en trance to the Fong Quay Club, the scene changing to Sacramento street on the occasion Of the celebration of the Chinese-New Year. The street Is dntoH and lighted with lanterns and shows the grandeur of the Orient on a festival night. Act fourth shows tho assembly rooms of the Fong Quay Club, in which an Ameri can Chinese wedding takes place. Spe cialties are introduced as part of the fes tivities. The company is One of more than ordinary excellence and Is made most complete by a number of native Chi nese. Divorce Suits. Louisa A. "Versteeg was divorced from J. A.

J. J. Guentherodt. a mining expert from Colorado, was in Portland yesterday on his way to Denver, via San Francisco. Mr, Guentheiodt has been sojourning In the Biker City country for the past m.nth investigating the mineral resources of some of the mining districts In Eastern Oregon, which country has Impressed him most favorably as a great gold-bearing region. He Is the advance agent 'for a syndicate of wealthy mining men of Col orado, and In all probability will suggest one of the districts In the Inland Empire as a suitable theater for operations for the winning of .sold from its native soil. Mr. Guentherodt stated that he could not say which district he would recom mend, but that there are plenty to choose from. He also say3 that Colorado has been universally prospeyus this year so far, and that the outputs from the great camps of Cripple Creek and Leodvillo will very likely for 1GC0 exceed In both value and tonnage output that of 1S09. Great wealth Is being harvested In gold mining. Colorado has recovered from the dubious effects of the silver slump, and with surplus capital the successful Colorado mining men are seeking new fields to conquer, and are casting longing eyes to the inviting mineral resions of the Northwest. Money is abundant in Colo r?do, the First National Bank, of Den ver, having deposits to the amount ot S20OGO.00O. Cripple Creek Is turning out millionaires by the' dozens," and Stratton, the world-rcr.owned mining operator, is reaching out for more ground. The Camp Bird mine, in the Sin Juan country, has made a quadruple millionaire of Thomas F. Walsh, and the Wolftono combination, at Leadville, has put a mil lion to the credit of Sam D. Nicholson. All these men were of but comparative ly moderate means a few years ago. Colo rado ability, as well as Colorado capital, is reaching out this way, and some able talent Is coming to the Coast. Mr. Guentherodt has In view closing out his interests in Colorado and locating in some of the camps of Eastern Oregon. Petition in Bankruptcy. John Ar Wesco, of Portland, teacher by profession, filed a petition In bankruptcy in the United States Court yesterday. His liabilities amount to $11,279 75; assets, SG2S.
