"Green Bug" and Frosts Have
. Worked Great Havoc.
NO GRAIN TO SEND ABROAD
Hops for Increase Depends Solely
on Spring Crop France Only
Country Without Shortage.
Other Grains Also Injured.
CHICAGO. May 12. (Special.) Feverish
clamor for wheat in all pita, in the face
of Improved climatic conditions, is ex
plained by special dispatches from trust
worthy experts In all wheat districts. The
condition Is almost unparalleled, and the
cry of "dollar wheat" Is well founded.
Those who are supposed to have the best
Information say It will go far above $1.
Government reports that the Winter
wheat harvest, due to begin In about aix
weeks, will be 100,000.000 bushels short, are
borne out by special investigation. The
situation is most remarkable. With the
possible exception of France, every wheat
country is reporting a shortage. At the
same time, the population of the country
demands 60.000,000 bushels more wheat
than it did five years ago, when there was
a shortage.
Indications are that this country will
have no wheat to sell abroad. Reserves
are fairly well exhausted and the public
faces a condition a stern condition not
a theory.
Due to Frosts and the Green Bug.'
First, more than 3.500.000 acres sown to
wheat last Fall have been abandoned.
The crop In all sections has been subject
to severe drought and there has been kill
ing freezes, owing to a lack of snow to
protect the grain. Still worse Is the de
vastating march of the "green bug," the
worst enemy wheat has encountered In
years, and which still Is working deadly
havoc over enormous areas In the West
ern belt. The Government Is optimistic
regarding the ravages of the green bug.
Private advices from men who have
traversed the fields say that the damage
has been underestimated.
What hope there is now centers in the
Spring wheat crop. The backward Spring,
continued cold and unfavorable weather
has delayed seeding to an extent where
this hope Is now trembling In the bal
ance. Providing nothing Interferes further
with the seeding, there will be a decrease
In the area sown to wheat and the crop
will mature so lata that there Is the ex
treme possibility of severe damage by
frost.
Shortage In All Graln"crops.
Facing these facts squarely, it will be
seen that this country will not be in po
sition to supply the enormous export de
mand. Foreigners realise this, and have
been snapping up the reserves greedily.
This wheat Is now being moved to the
seaboard. When these shipments are
completed the new crop will find the gran
aries empty. British Columbia and Argen
tina are In the same condition. Both
these- countries, like the United States,
harvested unusually heavy crops last year.
The conditions which have affected
wheat so adversely will. In some ratio,
put their blight upon corn and oats, and
the minor grains. From present appear
ances there will be a general shortage In
all crops.

Congressman Burton, of Cleveland, ac
cording to authorized statements of those
in the confidence of the Taft organization,
will Insist on an unqualified Indorsement

PULLMAN SLEEPER ON EXCCR-
SION TRAIN IS DERAILED.
Portland Business Men Returning
Home Meet With Accident on
Shaniko Branch O. R. & N.
One of the three Pullman sleepers of the
Portland business men's excursion spread
the rails and ran off the track near Biggs
on the Shaniko branch of the O. R. & N.
early Sunday morning, as the excursion
train was nearing the main line of the
railroad on the homeward run. The train
was running slowly and a brakeman
quickly threw on the air brakes, bringing
the train to a stop within 100 feet with
out damage or much Jar to the. car.
The two dozen passengers were trans
ferred to a day coach of the train and the
party continued the run to Portland. The
Inmates of the two other sleeping cars
did not know of the derailment until near
this city.
Had the train been running fast there
might have been a bad accident - from
probable plunging of the derailed car off
the embankment. With It would have
plunged also the dining-car, which was
behind the derailed sleeper and which
contained a number of colored waiters and
cooks. The derailed sleeper and the
diner were detached from the train and
the four remaining cars arrived In Port
land at 8 A. M. On the derailed sleeper
were the following men, who had no
further sleep during the Journey:
William McMurry, Dr. J. W, Morrow,
R. M. Dooley. Jr.. S. M. Luders. R. E.

DIES BY HER OWN HAND
Wife of Prominent Pnblisher Shoots
- - - Herself.
ST. LOUI8. May 12. Mrs. Agnes Barr
low Houser, wife of Daniel M. Houser,
president of the Globe Printing Com
pany, publishing the Globe-Democrat,
died tonight from the effect of a self
inflicted bullet woiAid In the right
temple. Mrs. Houser was found this
evening by her husband on his return
from an auto ride with his two sonB.
He was informed by servants that his
wife was in her room breathing heav
ily and evidently 111.
Mr. Houser entered the room and
found his wife on the bed with a re
volver In her hand. She was uncon
scious, but breathing: faintly. Physi
cians were quickly summoned, but
medical attention was without avail.
She died after lingering unconscious
for several hours.
Mrs. Houser had been In a very
nervous state for the past three or
four months. Members of the family
are at a loss to assign a reason for
her act. Worry and mental strain in
participating in the Charity Carnival,
given Friday, are the only possible
causes they can assign. There was
nothing to Indicate whether death was
accidental or premeditated. It Is not
known where she secured the revolver.
BIG LEGAL FIGHT IS ON

DEJNVER, Col., May 12. Last week the
attorneys for the defendants In the case
of officers of the Lost Bullion Spanish
Mine Company, charged by the Postoffice
Department with using the malls to de

R. E. Lewis. Arguments were made by
the attorneys of both sides and Judge
Lewis is expected to give his decision
early this week on the demurrer.
This Is the first gun in what promises to
be a hard-fought legal battle to show
whether or not the defendants old the
truth In the glowing prospectus which
they sent broadcast through the malls.

Greater Bulk of Product Used
in the United States Is
' Imported.
TONS OF FLOWERS USED
Sources of Aromatic Oils Varied and
Numerous Orange Plant Most
Profitable to American Distill
ers Used by the Ancients.
BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN.
WASHINGTON, . May 7. (Special
Correspondence.) About ten years ago
some enterprising American did some
figuring and discovered that the coun
try was Importing over J2,00D,000 worth
of perfumery every year. It was then
decided to see what the United States
could do toward making her own per
fumes, not only to save the $2,000,000,
but to make possible other millions
besides. A careful Investigation was
made, climatic and geographical con
ditions were studied, and a census was
taken of all the Indigenous plants and
of those that could be Introduced, to
see what could be expected of them.
The report on the possibilities of
this new industry In America was ex
ceedingly cheerful and encouraging,
but little has' been done to verify the
Investigators' faith in such a project.
The only Important essence made In
the United States Is oil of peppermint,
manufactured at the rate of about
150,000 pounds a year, an amount that
equals just half Japan's output. Other
oils made in small quantities are
wormwood, wintergreen, spruce and
witch-hazel, the value being about
$50.1,000 a year, which is only one
twelfth the value of the manufacture,
of the same articles In the little town
of-Gracse, the perfume center of South
east France. where ID.000.000,000
pounds of tflowers are converted Into
extracts and essences every Summer.
Perfume From Cabbage Rose.
The climate of this country com
pares most favorably with that of the
flower centers of the old world. The
roses that grow on the southern slopes
of the Balkans and. between the Marl
time Alps and the Mediterranean are
easily rivaled by those of the Southern
States in this country. The roses most
used for making the celebrated attar
of roses are the red damask of Bul
garia and the hundred-leaf, or cab
bage rose of Provence, In Southern
France. An expert on rose culture In
Augusta, Ga., declares that the Glolre
de France rose has the true odor of
attar of roses, is a perfect bloomer,
hardy and productive, and could be
made the source of a remunerative
manufacturing Industry. Oil of gera
niums is made from the three varieties
most common In all American gardens
the rose geranium, the skeleton
leaved and the nutmeg. All we usa
comes from the distilleries of Algiers,
Reunion Islands, Spain, Corsica and
Italy. It Is claimed that Florida's fa
cilities for geranium culture are vastly
superior to those of Algiers.
The orange Is the most profitable
plant to distillers and manufacturers
of perfumes.. The leaf, the flower and
the rind of the fruit are all used In
some branch of the art, and this tree
flourishes on many thousands of
American acres. At Santa Barbara.
Cal., the manufacture of neroli. or
orange slower oil, was attempted some
years ago, and an effort to get a good
extract of violet, rose and tube-rose
was alS3 made, but these failed. Sci
entists say It was because Xhe experi
ment stations were too near the Coast,
where the flowers were affected by
the Alaska current. Further inland
the conditions are better adapted to
such work. Los Angeles experiment
ers have reported pleasing success in
making oil from lemon, lime, orange
and eucalyptus.
Orange Blossoms Best for Perfumers
On the San Mateo farm, near Jack
sonville, Fla.. E. Moulle started a per
fume farm in 1880 and proved the vast
possibilities In that line' for America.
The products of the orange and lemon
were successf ully distilled, oil was
made from lemon verbena, and the
process of enfleurage tried with many
of the more delicate plants. The
orange flowers of the Louisiana Coast
are declared to be the best In America
for perfumers' use, and among the best
in the world.
Lavender is grown generally In the Uni
ted States, but not for commerce. Califor
nia and the dry lands of the West could
be made to yield a most profitable crop
of It. Thyme, used so extensively In the
manufacture of soaps, has become fairly
well naturalized In America. France dis
tills 90,000 pounds a year from her wild
growth, and the United States imports
about 46.000 pounds. Eau de cologne can
not be made without rosemary, the stim
ulating effect In the water being Impart
ed by this plant. It Is only a rare guest
In our gardens, yet can be gijpwn in
abundance wherever there are calcareous
soils. For five consecutive years the Uni
ted States imported orris root at the rate
of 238,000 pounds a year, the value run
ning up to $30,000, yet the Iris of which
It is a part is so adaptable to our cli
matic conditions tftat In Virginia, as the
"blue flag," it escapes from the gardens,
and wanders wild over the fields and
marshes. ,
The annual importation of oil of al
monds, an essential in the manufacture
of fine soaps. Is about 6000 pounds, the
price from $1.50 to $3 a pound. This is
made from the bitter almond, which
grows hardy here from California and
Florida to Michigan, yet has never been
cultivated for this purpose, its Califor
nia use being as a stock for the sweet
almond and as a pollenizer for sweet al
mond flowers. Fennel grows wild on the
Potomac, yet the annual cost of import
ed caraway and fennel oils exceeds $75,
000. Anise and coriander are easily nat
uralized In America, but are not raised
for profit. Cassie, the "opoponax" of the
South, and the indigenous "hulsaehe" of
Texas, is named by agricultural experts
as a profitable plant.
Aromatic Oil From Golden Rod.
Oils from sassafras and wintergreen
have already proved a profitable Industry
In parts of the United States, and the oil
distilled from the red or pencil cedar has
proved superior to that from the famous
cedars of Lebanon. Tuberoses, violets and
yellow Jasmine have all had their .test in
American manufacturers' hands and have
proved that their essences are just as
good as those of foreign make. Wild gin
ger, known as the Canadian snakeroot,
yields an aromatic oil that can be used
In strengthening perfumes, the sweet-leaved-goldenrod
distills into an oil that
smells like anise, and the sweet bay and
swamp laurel all offer great possibilities
in the manufacturing line. As yet they
have appealed little to the practical side

The "deer tongue" of Virginia, Caro
lina and Florida is the basis at the
perfume known as new-mown hay, but
has not yet been developed to Its full
est as an Industry. The artificial va
nillin, of which we export 25,000
pounds a year, is found in benzoin,
assafoetlda, beet sugar, asparagus,
pine resin, Peru balsam and potato
peels, the majority of which can be
found In America. Scientists interest
ed in the development of the perfumery
industry In this country have recom
mended Its manufacture as a most In
teresting and lucrative occupation for
farmers' wives and chlldren- The rais
ing of many flowers and plants would
afford healthful out-door occupations,
and the distilling of the liquids would
only be a revival of the delicate tasks
that the women of England. In Eliza
beth's time, and of America In colonial
days, all followed to a certain extent,
each housewife making her own es
sences and perfumes.
How the Oils Are Obtained.
The processes of obtaining the oils
and extracts are most Interesting. The
oil from orange and lemon peels Is ob
tained by running the peel through a
press, or by rubbing -it In a cup stud
ded with sharp needles, or by squeez
ing the peel between the fingera and
collecting the oil In a sponge. The
odors from flowers are obtained by
distillation, by maceration or enfleur
age. The distilling follows the same
process that has obtained for ages with
little change. In maceration, the flow
ers are bruised and immersed in heated
grease, and after the greaBe has ab
sorbed a full amount of the odor It is
mixed In a great churn with alcohol,,
which promptly robs the grease of Its
sweet burden, and the result is an "ex
tract." The more delicate flowers, such aB vio
lets and jasmines, give off a most un
pleasant odor when bruised, so must be
more carefully handled and the odor
taken out by the enfleurage process.
Sweet lard that has been purified until
it is .odarless is spread cold on a glass
tray and thickly overlaid ' with violets,
rose petals or other delicate flowers, and
set away until the odor, has been ab
sorbed. This process is repeated until
thousands of blossoms have been used,
then the-lcohol Is sent to receive this
breath of Araby's perfume- for miladi's
boudoir. Synthetic chemistry has dis
covered many perfumes that do not come
from the flower for which they are
named. Lilac Is made from terpinole, a
form of turpentine, violet from lonlne,
an oil of lemon or lemon grass, helitrope
from "extract of pepper and oil of sassa
fras, hyacinth from benzyl alcohol.
Its Tse Among the Ancients.
Perfume has been used since the cre
ation, either for personal gratification o
as incense in worship. Cleopatra Bad the
sails of her vessel dipped in perfume,
and incense was burned along the banks
of the Nile as she passed. Alexander the
Great captured Darius' perfume casket,
dumped out the rare scents and used the

Socrates forbade the sale of perfume in
Greece, but Helen of Troy set the" style
there, and later when the fashion spread
to Rome each matron had a special slave
to perfume her, though Ceasar and Cras
sus discountenanced the practice. The
most costly perfumes were in Elizabeth's
time, but the use of it for men has stead
ily declined since Beau Brummell's days,
when he wrote against It. Charlemange
had his palace walls dally washed in per
fume, and the Empress Josephine's bath
was of milk poured hot over a basin of
violets. The use has spread more to the
masses now, and is In reach of all. The
famous balm of Gilead, however, Is so
rare that only the Sultan may use It, and.
the famous gossiping centers , of the
Greeks, the perfumers' shops, have given
place to more prosaic cafes and gardens.

May Bids Fair to Break April Record
of 133, 45! Southern Europe
Supplies the Horde.
NEW YORK, May 12. The flooding tide
of immigration to American shores runs
ceaselessly on, and new high-water marks
for the Influx of Europe's migratory
hordes are being recorded every month
in the port of New York. ,
Already May bids fair to Outstrip the
April record, when 133.462 Immigrants
poured through the gateway of New York
Into the country. Five transatlantic
liners brought in over 5000 yesterday, and
officials at Ellis Island say that there
are no signs of cessation of this European
Invasion.
The well-spring of this human stream
lies principally in Southern and Middle
Europe, while another but lesser current
has Its source In the Scandinavian and
German states. Italy, Austria-Hungary
and the Lower Russians now supply more
than one-half of all the Immigrants seek
ing homes in this country. Every fourth
alien examined at Ellis Island is Italian,
while every fifth newcomer is from the
Austrias.
A score of years ago the headwater
of foreign immigration were in Ireland
and Germany. But now the source has
entirely changed. Th industrial fields
of the United States still absorb the
greater part of the foreign outpour, and
several states Massachusetts, Connecti
cut, New Jersey. New York, Pennsyl
vania, Illinois and Ohio find homes for
TO per cent of the total number.
