23 MORNING OREGONIAN, JULY 1912. THRONG FLOCKS TO VISIT OLD CRUISER Marblehead Is Magnet Not withstanding Elks Parade -Draws Crowds. FAMOUS OREGON SETS SAIL Officers of California XaTal Militia Entertain Visitors on Man-'o-War Which Took Part in Spanish War in '98. It apparently made little difference to hundreds of strangers in the city that the battleship Oregon departed about 8 o'clock yesterday morning for Astoria and to proceed to Seattle to morrow, for In her stead was'the Cali fornia Naval Militia cruiser Marble head, a vessel that also took part in the campaign along the Cuban coast in 1898 and was at the opening of the Kiel Canal on behalf of the United States. Captain Bauer and brother officers of the California organization permitted a free inspection of the ship, and in cnlt r the fact the Elks' Darade was f in motion until 3 o'clock and afterward visitors largely headed for cafes and restaurants, there was a crowd at the foot of Stark street and other launch landings that kept the mosquito-fleet busy. Lieutenant Barthalow, V. S. N., as signed aboard as inspector, and who Is particularly keen on ordnance and gun nery, had a crew busy all of yesterday constructing a floating target that will be towed by the Marblehead to Port Angeles. Every shell aboard the ship has been tried in the guns to fore stall any mishap in the way of jam ming and there have been blank shells fired at sea on the way from San Fran cisco to break in new men and get rid of "gun shyness." so if there are not some records made for Naval Militia practice the officers will be disappoint ed. As guests of the Oregon Naval Militia officers of the California body were entertained at dinner last evening at the Commercial Club and spent the re mainder of the evening taking in sights among the Elks. The ship sails at day light this morning. With Pilot Archie Pease on the bridge, the battleship Oregon made a good run down the river yesterday. The steamer Ocklahoma, of the Port of Portland fleet, assisted in turning the Oregon about so her nose was headed down stream. She accompanied the big vessel down the Willamette, so she could be on hand in the event the Ore gon : displayed more of her cranky curves and headed for the beach. The tug i Oneonta, which was ordered to Astoria to resume service, also steamed in company with the battleship. The Oregon will be at Astoria today and sail tomorrow for the North, as she is due at Seattle Sunday. BEAR HELPED IXTO STREAM Channel Closed and Presence - of ' Warship Was Cause. ; It is seldom that a towboat is sum moned to aid in getting any of the "Big Three" fleet away from Ainsworth dock sailing day, but such was the case yesterday when the steamer Bear was assisted by ihe steamer Diamond O. as Captain Nopander did not wish to swing, into the stream with the cruiser Mar blehead lying so close to the Broadway bridge piers and the west channel through the piers being closed with pil ing, as the steel work is to be hurried there. The Bear lost 15 minutes in sailing. The steamer Rose City did not ar rive until late last night, having been detained in the south through going to the assistance of the steamer City of Panama. She. will not be numbered with the vessels used for Elk excur sions today, but will no doubt carry many of the delegates to California on her return next week. . BOSTON GETS MODER-V GCXS Naval Militiamen Will Compete tor State Rifle Trophy. To assist men of the Oregon Naval Militia in small "arm proficiency, the Navy Department hasIorwarded 50 of the new model Springfield rifles and 20.000 rounds of ammunition. Begin ning Sunday the men of the Boston will Inaugurate target practice on the Clackamas range, which is used by the National Guard forces. The naval militiamen will enter four teams in the state shoots and. they feel that they will get a place in competi tion for the state trophy. Men have been enlisted -who formerly served in the National Guard, and besides being familiar with the Springfield arm have qualified as marksmen, while there are ex-service men in the organization who are being counted on to make a show ing.' The Oregon men expect to take up sub-caliber practice In the Fall, and by the time the 1913 cruise Is at hand no doubt arrangements will be made for "them to practice at sea, as the California militia will do this year. Marine Notes.. Frank Waterhouse. of the Water house line, which will cease operating to Portland from Oriental ports after September I. unless an arrangement is made with the Harriman interests, has reached the city from Seattle for an other conference with the O.-W. R. & N. officials at which he hopes to settle the matter. . Oliver J. Olson, of the widely-known steamship firm of Olson & Mahony, is due in Portland Monday, en Toute East on business.- .... Inspector Beck, of the 17th Light house District, has been informed that black buoy No. 3, established at Dea demona Sands, went adrift Tuesday. Repairs to the gasoline schooner Til lamook having been terminated at Sup pie's yards she shifted yesterday to Albers' dock to begin loading for Ban don and way ports. The Tillamook was seriously damaged last month through having been struck by the tug Samson, while on the way down the Columbia. Because yesterday was generally ob served as a holiday the July gathering of the Port of Portland Commission was not convened, a postponement hav ing been agreed on until tomorrow aft- rnflOlL J . Advices received yesterday were that the steamer Alliance wouia nui m until tomorrow, one day behind sched- h.r nntu-iril earflrd will SCO aboard without delay so she can sail Sunday. . r, ir..imav and I..

TTDon returning from Chicago Daniel Rovd. of Enterprise, one of Ore gon's delegates to the Chicago convention, denied tnat ne naa in spired any of the telegrams of censure that were forwarded by residents of Baker to members of the delegation because or their action in failing to vote for Governor McGovern for tem porary chairman and otherwise refus ing tn snnnnrt the nlan of the ROOSe- velt forces for organizing the conven tion. Tn a iAoont nurilished statement. of the messages' Involved In the con troversy, made the charge mat tney were solicited by Mr. Boyd. - T An int i4airA tn flisCUSS the SUb-- iect," said Mr. Boyd, "further than to say that when Mr. aicCusKer alleges that I solicited the sending of tele grams to the delegates from Oregon people, he is very unfair. I solicited no one to send telegrams. Although I received numerous telegrams from over the state relative to the action of the .Tniimia ifaiixratDff from Oregon. I re ceived none, forged or otherwise, from Baker. I presume tnat Mr. Mctjusaer has in mind a telegram from Baker i . nn . ..fflrrip ir t n him as a 'coward.' which was addressed to Mr. Swift, an other member of th delegation, and not to me. I did show this telegram to Mr. McCusker and the original Is in the possession of Mr. Swift. 'T li n -in cnrnmAntjl to make at this time relative to the convention or the. organization -of the .delegation, as I v. . . i.t mtilrn fftim the PTast and know nothing of what has been re ported in the Oregon press concerning the same." NEW THRILLS PROMISED Malheur Fair and Vaquero Contest to Be Better Than Ever. ONTARIO. Or, July 11. (Special.) The committees in charge of the sev eral departments of the Malheur Coun ty Fair and Vaquero Festival are work ing hard on the preliminary arrange ments and have progressed sufficiently to declare that the 1912 exhibit will be far larger and better than any pre vious effort. The season has beeif an ideal one for the products of the farm, garden and orchard, and the live stock ex hibits will be more numerous and of better grade than last season. The attractive feature last year was the vaquero sports and they will oc cupy more time this year and "e of a more varied character. The committee having this In charge has purchased a car load of cattle from Old Mexico and they will arrive here in a few days, having already been . shipped. These animals are the wildest cow brutes to be found anywhere and may be counted on to test the skill of the ropers and riders. v The West is being searched for wild horses to be used In the horse race, where a number of horses are turned over to an equal number of vaqueros, and thy are to put on a hackamore and saddle and ride tbem around the half mile track. Also horses for the bucking contests. As an additional thriller, arrange ments have been made for coursing matches between wild coyotes and greyhounds. Many other novelties will be announced later. All the contests will be open to the world. CREW SHIFTS TO JUNCTION Grading. for Oregon Electric Xearlng Completion. JUNCTION C1TT. Or.. July 11. (Spe cial.) The. last stretches of grading on the Oregon . Electric extension are practically all completed, this work being rushed to make ready fof the track laying crew. -The large grading crew has completed the grading through the streets of Harrisburg and across the' Hyde estate. This last mile of right of way had been tied up by litigation. This, crew is now being moved to Junction City to grade the street for the track through this town, this being the last of the grading to be done. The track laying crew is making rapid progress out of Albany, having laid 20 miles of track at the rate of two miles a day. At this rate the track should be laid to Harrisburg in one week's time. The track crew will not stop here as the temporary pile and timber bridge has been completed across the Willamette River. There Is nothing to stop the laying of rails to Eugene as fast as ' the steel can t be put down. Cottage Grove Potatoes Flourish. COTTAGE GROVE. Or., July 11. (Special.) A Doolittle claims to have about the finest looking potatoes ever raised here. His vines are fully three feet high and have stalks as thick as a man's finger. The tubers under neath the vines are growing In pro portion and are already as big at LIT! .1 . a .

TONE IS UNCERTAIN Large Speculators Withdraw From Securities Market. SENTIMENT IS BEARISH Stock Prices Fluctuate Throughout the Day and at the Close Are Barely Steady Foreign News Generally Is Encouraging. NEW TOP.K. July 11. Trading in stocks today was characterized by declines and rallies, with hesitation at the end. Busi ness was light except in the first hour, when prospects of money stringency call loans later went to 3Vs per cent Induced some liquidation. Sentiment largely was bearish, based In part on monetary uncertainty and the ap parent lack of buying power. There also is a general belief that the so-called big specu lative Interests have abandoned the market until political conditions become defined. Asid from weakness in coppers, foreign news was encouraging, although anxiety is felt at the heavy liquidation in Pars. There are intimations that the selling Is related to tension in the Kuropean political situa tion, which is intensified by the efforts of Italy and Turkey to make new war loans in France. The-weekly statement of the Bank of England was noteworthy, chiefly for the large Increase In the proportion of its liabil ity reserves, which rose from 41.39 per cent to 00.28 per cent. The Bank of France re duced its discounts by more than 163,000.000 and increased its gold by 12.700,000. The uenin course was weax ana auu. Bonds were lower, with total sales, par value. S2.6oti.000.

CROP NOT YET IN DANGER Early Advance of Cent and Half Is lost in "Weakness Tbat Later Prevails and September Closes Lower. - CHICAGO, July 11. Hints that rust had appeared in the Northwest today unsettled wheat, but reports were too vague for a gen uine scare. A dip occurred at the outset because of cool and favorable weather for the develop ment of the Spring crop. . Dry conditions Southwest, favoring the movement of the Winter yield, also counted against the bulls. Suddenly, however, quotations started on a rapid upward swing. Rumors were current that rust had been observed in Minneosta and prices ran up 1 cents a bushel. Min neapolis experts, nevertheless, did not ap pear exercised. Weakness prevailed in the last hour among wheat traders because of talk that rust waa present every year In the North west and that detriment occurred only if the plant was prevented from filling. Betterment of demand from the East helped to sustain corn after the wheat bulge had overcome bearish sentiment, due to cool weather. The oats market was a smaller edition of what happened to other grain, with fre quent and irregular price change and a fairly active trade. Provisions sagged owing to a larger run of hogs. The leading futures ranged as follows. WHEAT. s . cpen. nigii. uvvv. . . July $1.04 $1.04 $1.03 $1.04 Sept, 1.00 1.01 .99 00 uec. x.v -i.vss '.vi CORN. 1 s?pi ::::: lire ...... u.
