CROPS ARE SECURED
Only the Prunes Remain to
Be Harvested.' "
LAST WEATHER BUREAU REPORT
Seeding: of Fall Grain in Colombia
River Valley Stock Generally
in Fine Condition Variable
Yield ot Potatoes. "v
As tho staplo crops of the state have
either been secured or else are practically
Bafe from future adverse "weather condi
tions, the weekly crop bulletin o tho
"Weather Bureau here will, after this week,
be discontinued until next Spring. Tho last
Issue, printed yesterday, said:
Light rains fell in the Willamette Valley
and along the coast during tho early part
of the week, hut otherwise the weather
throughout the state was dry and pleasant.
Tho days were warm, but tho nights, as a
rule, were cool, and frost occurred in East
ern Oregon and in, scattered localities of
Southern Oregon on one or two mornings;
they did no damage of consequence.
The weather was very favorable for
threshing, and this work was actively
pushed to completion. Prune picking and
drying also made satisfactory progress. It
will require about a week or ten days more
to complete the prune harvest; the crop
this year is an excellent one, both in quality
and quantity. But little plowing or seeding
has been done yet west of the Cascade
Mountains, owing to the dry condition of the
soil. In the Columbia River Valley and in
$ome sections of the Grand Hondo Valley
the seeding of fall grain has progressed rap
Idly. More rain is needed in Western Oro
gon before fall plowing will become general.
The corn crop continues to do nicely, and
some fields are now ready for the silo. Po
tato digging has begun, with variable yields.
In some sections the crop is turning out
well, whjle in others, especially along the
coast the average yield will be very light,
owing to blight and rot.
Stock Is doing well and is generally in
fine condition. A good rain would benoflt
pastures, but as. a rule feed Is plentiful, es
pecially on the ranges. Some green feeding
is being done in the dairy districts to keep
up the supply of milk.
Beans are being harvested; with good re
sults. The third crop of alfalfa turned out
well, and was secured in good condition.
Pears and plums continue to yield satis
factorily and art Wing marketed as rapidly
as possible. Apples are only fair, and In
some counties they are dropping badly.
General Crop Report.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 20. The Weather
Bureau's weekly crop bulletin says:
The principal corn states have experienced
weather conditions exceptionally favorable
for maturing late corn, and while frosts
have been quite general over the central and
eastern portions of the corn belt, no mate
rial damage Is Indicated. Probably less than
20 per cent of the corn orop is unmatured,
and while the proportion yet exposed to In
Jury in Dakota. Minnesota and Wisconsin Is
greater, the Immature will make good feed;
farther south only a very small part of tho
crop Is still toft.
While conditions have been favorable
for threshing in the Spring wheat region,
reports of dampness of grain In shock as a
result of previous rains continue. Harvest
is now completed on the Northern Pacific
Coast and threshing has advanced.
With generally seasonable temperatures
over ncariy the entire cotton belt, a large
part of the cotton crop has already been
gathered. Cool nights and tho very gen
eral prevalence ot drouth la the central and
western districts have been detrimental and
rust and shedding continue to be extensive
ly reported.

BANKS SUPPORT MARKET!
FINANCIAL INTERESTS TURN TO
"THE BUYING SIDE.
Stock List Closes Strong WItb Many
Gains Running. From Tvro. to
Three Points.
NEW YORK, Sept. 29. People who came
down to Wall street today expecting a de
moralizing break in prices met with a sur
prise, as vigorous support was forthcoming
from the most powerful financial Interests
In the country, and was steadily offered
throughout the day. The market closed ac
tive and strong and at the best prices of
the day. Net gains of 2 to 3 points were the
general rule throughout the list and the
leaders exceeded this, Pennsylvania and
Amalgamated Copper rising 3 and Union
Pacific, Atchison, Louisville, Rock Island,
Metropolitan Street Railway, Brooklyn
Transit and Peoples Gas from 3 to 3.
The expectation of the further slump to
day was founded on the demoralised tone
of Pennsylvania and the resulting uasettle
ment of the whole list last night. This in
fluence was supplemented by the further de
cline in British consols today to a new low
level. As the course of this premier British
security haskept pace with our own market"
on the down grade, reflecting the same con
dition of overextension of capital In certain
lines, causing the necessity for drastic liqui
dation elsewhere, the opening tone here was
decidedly unsettled. The United States
Steel stocks made a further break, the com
mon and preferred breaking through yester
day's new record.
The majority of opening changes wcre-on
the side of declines, and there was some
special pressure against New York Central,
yesterday's break in Pennsylvania having
brought that 6 per cent stock down to a
parity with the 5 per cent New York Cen
tral The usual bear pressure, under these
circumstances, developed against the latter.
But Pennsylvania's opening rise of a point
was the proclamation that other Influences
were at work. Tho buying of this stock was
traceable to the banking house of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., which 'manages the company's
financial operations. The very heavy buying
orders -in United States Steel preferred were
credited in a slmlhir way to J. P. Morgan
& Co., and It was confidently affirmed that
the open buying of Amalgamated Copper by
brokers usually employed by tho Standard
Oil party might -be accepted in good faith
as indicating the activity on the buying slde
of that party.
There has been an almost superstitious
feeling among the whole speculative contin
gent that the melting away of prices, which
had reached the point of a slow panic,
would not be checked until these financial
leaders began to buy stocks largely and In
concert. Conviction that this would happen
had an electrical effect upon speculative
sentiment, and drove tho bears to cover
with a scramble Some of the large bear
speculators put out fresh short lines at dif
ferent idages of the advance, in the con
fidence that the large buying orders were
designed simply to support the market, to
be resold' upon any considerable advance.
But there was no evidence of this reselling
and the belief gained ground that tho great
banking interests had definitely changed
. their recent policy of abandoning the mar
ket to Its own resources and biding the time
when the fever of selling, which has taken
hold of these securities-holding public,
should exhaust itself. It was evident at the
Fame time that the urgent liquidation
lacked the force which carried down prices
in recent markets.
As a result there was a marked revival of
confidence and dissipation of many of the
shadowy fears which have Infected the
speculative mind of late with even greater
effect than actual developments. The news
of the day, of which there was little bear
ing on values, was not a factor at all in the
movement of prices.
The bond market became firm, in syny
pathy with the recovery in stocks. Total
sales, par value. $4,985,000. United States
2s declined per cent on the last call.

Counsel in Alaskan Case Discusses
Allegiance of the Xatlves.
' LONDON, Sept. 29. When the Alaskan
Boundary Commission resumed its ses
sion this morning-, Christopher Robinson,
K. C, who suffered from severe indis
position yesterday, but who had bene
fited by the night's rest, resumed his
speech In behalf of the Canadian claims,
though, at the suggestion of Chief Justice
Alverstone, counsel remained seated. Mr.
Robinson dealt vigorously with the falli
bility of the maps of the district under
contention, holding that the American
deductions therefrom were therefore weak.
ilr. Robinson continued his speefh after
the luncheon adjournment. Ridiculing the
United States contention that It had se
cured the allegiance of tho Alaskan native.-?,
he said: "
"With a bottle of whisky and a blan
ket, you can obtain the allegiance of any
Indian."
Replying to Lord Alverstone's query of
yesterday afternoon as. to whether coun
sel would prove that the coast mentioned
In article 7 referred exclusively to the
strip which Russia was to obtain by
treaty, Mr. Robinson maintained that ar
ticle 7 meant reciprocal privileges in tho
lislere (strip previously referred to)r Im
plying Great Britain's jurisdiction over
certain inland waters, and not south of
latitude 51:10. as the United States con
tends. ' Counsel argued that Russia had not tho
right to grant privileges south of lati
tude 54:40.
Hannis Taylor, ex-United States Min
ister to Spain, of counsel for the
United States, .followed Mr. Robinson.
Dealing with the international law phase
of the dispute and discussing the Hud
son Bay Company's relations witl tho
British Empire, he maintained the
company's officials were empowered to
re'present Great Britain from an interna
tional point of view, and, therefore,
transactions with tho Hudson's Bay Com
pany must be regarded as having the
weight of that relation.
Mr. Taylor will continue his argument
tomorrow.
America Is Asked for Protection.
NSW YORK, Sept. 29. The State De
partment of the United. States Govern
ment having Instructed the Minister qt
Bogota to arrange, If possible, an amica
ble adjustment of the affairs of the Cen
tral and South American Telegraph Com
pany with the Colombian Government, the
company has instructed Us engineers to
delay cutting out Buena Ventura until
further orders, says a Herald dispatch
from Panama.
Because' of the statements that the Co
lombian Government has ordered the. tele
graph company's Panama office to "be
closed In the event of the company los
ing the Buena Ventura office, the Central
and South American Telegraph Company
has asked that the United States give pro
tection, under the treaty of 1SS8, from any
Interference on the part of Colombian of
ficials relating to its office In Panama.
Snit Is Formally Dismissed.
CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 23. The case of
Talbot J. Taylor and others, to restrain
