She was nervous, but told me they intended to be married in Vancouver and go to Idaho. "Mrs. Marsh's nervous condition seemed even worse today than during the tr'al.

Dodson, to Seek Federal -Aid for Trade Increase, Business missionaries, more effective than any other that may be sent abroad by American manufacturing and export ing interests, was the class in which Trade Commissioner W, D. B. Dodson, of the Chamber of Commerce, yester day placed engineers. He spoke to the Oregon Society of Engineers at their first luncheon of the- season in the Benson crystal dining-room. "Our Government is busy sending special agents, commercial attaches, consuls and other students of commer cial problems," said the speaker. "Our business men are sending commercial representatives. "The commercial traveler' may find in the Orient that the loan agreement whereby a work is undertaken provides for the engineers and materials to be secured from the nation making the loan. It is certain that the foreign engineer will specify materials from his nation where he can. Only where we have men in the confidential positions occupied by engineers and have a hand in shaping the great loan agreements will we get full opportunity in this trade. We get no benefit whatever from the tourist's travel, for he preaches nothing American, buys noth ing American while away from home, and leaves no impression save that of spending American money prodigally." The. speaker urged the Oregon Society to have the National ' Society of Engineers inaugurate a campaign with the Federal Government and the large manufacturing and exporting in terests to place in -each great .commer cial center a leading American engi neer, whose duty it should Be to seek opportunity for placing young Amer ican engineers seeking positions. Such a work he pointed out, if pros ecuted vigorously in the Orient and South America, would soon result in considerable numbers of American en gineers finding employment there. Within a very few years this work would bear fruit in rapidly-increased orders for American exports. The as sociation of these engineers with for eign work would also serve to attract more American capital, because of the Intimate knowledge of contructlon and investment conditions that would fol low. SHIP BILL MAY REST HOUSE LEADERS TELL, WILSON PASSAGE NOW UNLIKELY. Members' Want to Get Home for t'am palgn.,but President Is Hopeful. ' WASHINGTON, Sept. 28. There was little doubt in Congressional circles to night that the bill for the Government purchase of merchant ships would go over to the Winter session without action. President Wilson, in confer ence with House leaders, today de clared he still thought it advisable to pass the measure immediately and would urge that It be taken up. He was told, however, by both advo cates and opponents of the project that there was a powerful sentiment against beginning consideration of the bill at this time. Democratic Leader Underwood and Representative Alexander, of Missouri, chairman of the merchant marine com mittee, both of whom favor the measure, advised the President that a large number of the House members, restive over the prolonged session and anxious to get into their home dis tricts, were strongly in favor of post poning action until the next session. The question was still open when the conferences ended, but everywhere, ex cept at the White House, postponement was accepted as certain. Mr. Underwood told the President that there was much opposition to the shipping bill, much of it being based on a desire of members to get home for the campaign. Others oppose it be cause they believe the emergency de manding it had passed. Representa tives Page, of North Carolina, and Sherley, of Kentucky, who are leading the opposition, also conferred with the President, endeavoring to convince him that it would be inadvisable to press the measure. Some of the opponents of the measure insist that at least 70 Democrats are opposed to the bill and that it would fail if put upon its passage. Adjournment, or a plan to let the House recess with consent of the Sen ate, is being discussed, but all depends on the Senate. v DEATH CHEATS DIVORCE Mrs. Ethel Hodlin Freed From Vows on Eve of Trial at Vancouver.

A proposal to grant women equal rights with men in church affairs was today approved by a committee to which it was re ferred by the Methodist General Con ference, in session here. The confer ence may reach the matter tomorrow. ESTIMATE IS LARGE English Hop Crop Figures Are Growing. NOW SAID TO BE 600,000 Break in London Market Carries Down Prices on Pacific Coast. Sales Made in Oregon at 13 1-2 Cents. The English hop crop is turning out to be larger than was estimated. Every cable received In the past few days makes the quantity greater. Friday's cables estimated a yield or 600,000 cwt., a cable received Saturday put It at S50.000 cwL, and a cable that came In yesterday, sent by one of the largest London rirrns, said the crop would be 600.00 cwt. Eitner the English merchants were badly tooled by the size of tbe crop before It was picked.' for they estimated It then at 350.000 to 40 J, 00 cwt., or they are trying by means of these big figures to get prices down. The market - in London has gone oft badly, yesterday's cable quota tions being 50 to 90 shillings per cwt., equal to 10.71 to 19.29 cents per pound. This break In London prices is not only a severe blow to the English hop growers, but It is also carrying down hop prices on the Pacific Coast. The best price reported in the local market yesterday was 13 Mi cents. The market stood at that figure just before the war. After hostilities began prices started climbing until they touched 18-19 cents and a fraction sver. ' Now they are back again where they started.' - These low prices, if they are maintained, will give tbe snorts an opportunity to cover their sales at a profit. Thousands of bales of Oregon hops were sold short for October delivery at 14 to cents. Two Individual sales of 1000 bales each are known to have been made within this range of prices. An. active cover ing movement in the near future can there fore be looked for. In the meantime the New York market continues steady at prices altogether out of line with those prevailing on the Pacific Coast. New York state hops were quoted In .-iew rork City yesterday at 4 2 00 cents. New crop Oregons were quoted In the same market at 19fci!l cents. Among the sales reported in this state yesterday were the Simon lot of 235 bales at Salem to Bishop at 13'4 cents; the Kunz crop or 4u Dales at Woodburn to Seavey at 13A cents; the Ireland lot of 48 bales at Corvallis to Seavey at 11 cents, and a 60 bale Salem lot to Catlln & Linn at 12 cents. The latter firm is reported to have bought 500 bales all told at 13 to 13 H cents. VISIBLE SCPFEY INCREASE 13 LARGE Eight and Half Million Bushels Gala In the Fast Week.

Butter prices are holding their own, al though there is not much snap to the mar ket. Cheese was also unchanged. COUNTRY WHEAT BUYING NOT HEAVY Farmers Are Asking Extreme Prices Local Stocks Large. Wheat trading In the country was limited, not only because of the extreme prices asked by farmers, but also owing to the congested condition-, of tbe docks here and at the Sound ports. Local buyers on the Exchange bid lower for club and red wheat, offering 94 cents tor the former and 888 cents for the latter, but for forty-fold, bids were advanced half a cent to 98 cents. Bluestem was un changed at $1.0214 bid. Weakness was in evidence in the oats and barley mirttew. For spot oats, buyers offered $25.50 and for November oats. S26.D0. For barley, $20 was bid. Mill feed was un changed. BroorahaH'r foreign crop cable says of conditions in Argentina: "In the southern regions the outlook for wheat Is favorable, but otherwise there are many complaints. The acreage planted Is much under last year, and the seed was of poor quality, from last year's crop, and at the seed time the weather was very bad for a long period.- The Argentine government crop report of July 28 estimates the area sown with wheat for the 1914-15 crop as about 15.800,000 acres, a falling off of nearly 1,000,000 acres as compared with last year.'- Crop conditions In other countries are re ported by Broomhall as follows: United Kingdom V eather la wet and cold. Native offers are firm and sparingly of fered. Millers are absorbing freely of all native offers and also foreign arrivals, and pressure of wheat on the quays la not now pronounced. India Further good rains have fallen, but there is a very permanent damage resulting from dryness. Crop prospects are fair. Australia Partial rains have fallen, but general heavy rain Is needed. Crop prom ises very moderate yield. Italy A fair Increase In acreage is ex pected. Europe Much rain and cold weather has -greatly Interfered with seeding and soil preparation, and very little effort has been made along this line. Local receipts.

WHEAT RISE SHARP Market Affected by Talk of Russian Ultimatum. ITALY MAY BE INVOLVED Prospect or Falling Off In Primary Movement Also Influences Prices at Chicago Farmers Hold ing for Higher Quotations. CHICAGO, Sept. 28. Rumors of an ulti matum from Russia to Turkey had consld erable to do today with causing an advance in the price of wheat. Closing quotations were steady at to ISc above Saturday night. Corn suffered a net decllns of SlCP'ic to Sc, but oats finished with a gain of He In provisions the outcome varied from unchanged figures to a rise of 45c. According to unconfirmed reports, Rus sia's demand was that Turkey must either disarm or fight. As the entrance of Turkey into the European war might involve Italy and all the Balkan states, many wheat speculators made haste to cover, fearing an excited and higher market in case Turkey proved defiant. Some export buytr.g. to gether with prospects of a sharp falling off in primary receipts, gave additional help to the bulls. Advices from both the South west and Northwest indicated that a ma jority of farmers were holding out for higher prices. Fine weather for maturing corn made the market for that cereal relatively weak. ' Oats hardened owing to gossip of big ex port sales. On the other hand, there were signs of freer- offerings from the country, especially Iowa. Packers buying helped to lift provisions. An advance In the hog market was also a distinct aid.

The Dalles is ready to cry "turn "em loose", tomorrow morning- and open what promises to be the most thrilling Wild West exhibition ever held here. At the same time the 24th annual Was co County Fair will be opened. The city has assumed a festive appearance. The professional cowboys and cowgirls are here, all of the elaborate street decorations are in place, the many car nival attractions are in full blast and a large crowd of visitors has arrived. In. fact, there are more strangers al ready in The TJalles than are usually present on the first day of the Rodeo Fair, and this city expects to entertain the biggest bunch of visitors in its his tory. The weather has been ideal during the last two days and the rodeo track is in fine condition. Friday will be the biggest day of the week. It will be Portland and Sherman Cou-.jty day. Mayor Morrow, of Wasco, and Mayor Freeman, of Moro, have declared Fri day a holiday in their respective mu nicipalities. An extra large number of Portland citizens are expected here Friday also. The Rodeo wljl be opened with a street parade, a daily feature, at -10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Headed by Pounds' concert band, the pageant will consist of the Yakima and Warm Springs Indians in full warpaint and fighting clothes, the Wild West pro fessionals, the local Rodeo buckaroo who will be mounted, at least at the start, and some original comic features. The Indians will give war dances en route. Free dances in the street will be held the last two nights. - Mall-Order House Founder Dead. CHICAGO, Sept. 28. R. W. Sears, founder of Sears.

MONEY- MARKET IS EASIER Trarfio Returns Indicate Business In Western States Is Holding Steady Expansion of Trad ing In London. NEW YORK, Kept. 28. By reason of Its important bearing; on the International money market, todey's -violent rise In for eign exchange on London overshadowed all other financial 'developments. Cables rose to 15.02 and demand sold at (5.01, each rep resenting- a grain of 3 cents per pound ster ling over Saturday and restoring rates to the highest quotations for these remittances since tbe latter Dart of Auriut. ' The advance was occasioned largely by an increased demand tor London bills by per sons having large obligations to discharge aorosa early in uctoDer, when many 90-day dims will expire. It was the general expectation that thes maturities would be met by new grain and cotton bills, but the supply of the latter nus oeen especially small, because of the emDargo on exports or that staple. Moreover, the $100,000,000 gold pool was counted on to relieve the exchange situa tion, but delay in the consummation of that project has added to the general strength of the market. Apart from the flurry In foreign ex change, which reacted slightly later, most of tho day's news was of a constructive character. Business In the Western states holds steady, as Indicated by traffic returns. A significant development In the Middle West is the easier -tone of the money market. It Is noteworthy that money eased here, some four month or over-year loans being placed at 7 per cent. . . An expansion of trading was reported from London, while Paris and Rome, ad vices indicated a prolongation of the mora torium at those centers. Hops, Etc. at New York. NEW YORK. Sept. 28. Hops steady.
