ENGINEER'S REPORT MADE No Recommendation 18 Made as to tillage Tax, but Advisability of Slaking larger Appropriation Put Up to Assembly. SALEM. Or.. Jan. 15. (Special.) Recommending that the State Highway Commission be given entire Jurisdiction over all state roads, and the enactmen of a provision fjiving that department supervision of the design ana construe tion of all bridges and culverts cost im $500 or more. State Highway Engi. near Bowlby has Issued his first annual report with a resume of the work which . has been accomplished during the first 18 months of the existence or the nign wav department. Mr. Bowlby further recommends that a provision should be added to the pres ent law makintr it possible for the stati to acquire by condemnation or by gift or purchase the right of way required for the system or state roads. "This." he says, "should provide short, simple method by which the At torney-General is authorized to onn condemnation proceedings In all cases where the right of way agent fails to procure the deed by gift or for a rea sonable compensation. The hierhwav engineer makes recommendations in regard to an In crease of the levy for highway con Etruction. He says: The present law provides for a levy of one-fourth of 1 mill for the state road fund. This provides approximately $240. 000 annually. I make no recom mendatlons for a greater levy. Th wisdom of making provision for larger amount of money for construct ing the state roads, it is hoped, will . be apparent to the Legislature after tbev have read this report. In reviewing the work which ' has been accomplished by the Highway Commission, the report says: "A system of state or trunk roads has been adopted and a start. In a small way, made toward the t construction o this system. The rate at which tnes trunk roads will be built and become of use to the public is now only a question of how fast the money is made avail able for this purpose. The financial statement of the Com mission shows that there was availabl in the highway fund November 1, 1914, $r.9, $;. 88. Disbursements are shown t have been 1188,974.72 and receipts 1248, 670.60. Mr. Bowlby reports that a movemen has been started to construct a road from Portland to Mount Hood. CEMENT PRICES JUMP WII.I, INVESTIGATE LOI H CONDITIO. Only Two Companies Submit Traders aa. The Are Similar, Thonica lO Concerns Are In Field. - A sudden discontinuance of compe tition in the cement business, accom panied by a rise in price, is to be the subject of au investigation by City Commissioner Blgelow and Municipal Purchasing Agent Wood. Pending the - investigation bids opened by the city yesterday for 5000 barrels of cement for - use in various public improvement projects are to bo held up. Although It Is said there are repre sentatives of 10 different cement com' panies In active business in Portland only two bids were submitted for the &000 barrels of cement wanted by the city. These were identical, each quot ing a price of $2.30 a barrel, with a re ductfon of 10 cents for each empty sack returned. Up to the present it is said compe tition seemed active in the cement bust nesH. Cement dealers have complained ' .bitterly in the past that the city bought all its cement from one concern, the lilverside Portland Cement Company, end for that reason it was expected competition for the 5000 barrels the city now seeks to buy would be keen. The Riverside Company failed to sub in it any bid, as did some of the concerns that had complained before. The only companies to bid were the Washington 3'ortland Cement Company and the anta Cruz Portland Cement Company, end the bids were 20 cents a barrel lifgher than the city has paid for ce ment at any time tn years.

WOLFMAN MAY QUIT CASE Arson Indictments to lie Dropped if Perjury Sentence Is Served. A. TVolfman. convicted of perjury and with two arson Indictments still against him. will serve his term of three to 10 years In tne rennenusrj and will not appeal his case to the Supreme Court, It was said yesterday. The charge of perjury rose out of Wolfman's repudiation of a confession to the arson charge made to District Attorney Evans. Deputy District Attorney Collier, who nmsecnted the case, agreed that if Wolfman would serve his sentence he would recommend his pardon at the end of three years and would dismiss the other two arson indictments. He refused, however, to promise Immunity from what might result from Investi gations now being conducted Into a fire at Second and Couch streets, where a Japanese was burned to death more than a year ago.

Special) Albany will vote next Monday on proposal to extend its city limits and south and west of the city. Separate elections will be held inside of the city limits and within the territory which It Is proposed to annex. Sentiment in the city is in favor of the annexation, but is feared by some that the proposal may be rejected in the territory sought to be annexed. Despite its rapid growth in the past decade, Albany has its present circumscribed limits for a auarter of a century and much well- settled territory is outside the, legal limits. Local Market Responds to Higher Prices In East. A 10-cent advance In local sugar prices will go into effect this morning. This , is the consequence of a 10-cent advance lh all grades of 'refined sugar In the Eastern mar kets yesterday. Commenting on the sugar outlook for this year Willett ft Gray say In their annual re view; "Looking ahead, the world's cane crop es timates appear abundant for the require ments from such crop to meet all demands, and still a certain uncertainty exists that some way or another, after the usual drop In values from late January to March is over, there will come sufficient competition from abroad and at home to cause an ad vancing trend to Cuban sugar up to the end of the current campaign. The bad harvest ing weather In Cuba, if continued, will re strict the early decline to smaller limits than cases, 78c bnvou. 1.35c COFFEE Roasted, in drums, is (B'-tfJ a SUGAR Fruit and berry, $5.85; beet $5.65; extra C, $5.35; powdered, in barrels, SALT - Granulated. $15.50 per ton; half ground, 100s. $10.75 per ton; 60s, $11.50 per ton; dairy, 914 per ton.

New York advices say that following large orders for foodstuffs recently placed by Great Britain and France in the United States, it was learned that negotiations are about completed for the purchase of 24,000, 000 cans of evaporated milk to be used in feeding the armies of the Allies. As there are four dozen cans to a case this means that the shipment, which Is expected begin in the next two or three weeks,, will call for 500,000 cases, and figuring an aver age of $3.15 a case t. o. b. New York, the otal expenditure outside of commissions will amount to $1,575,000. ' It is understood, says the New York Com mercial, that this consignment will be made up of four or five well-known brands made In the United States. While the representa tives of several condensed milk companies In New York expressed Ignorance of the pending negotiations for export. It was learned that the Pacific Coast Condensed Milk Company, which has large canneries throughout the West, Is considering a bid for 100,000 cans of its brand, which has In the past been shipped extensively to China.
