Extension of Time Granted, bat All Are Wane ay Collector of Penalttea Law Provides. Although approximately 2000 drug Cists and physicians of Oregon com plied with the new Federal anti-narcotic law and registered with Milton A. Miller, collector of internal revenue, ot the Custom-House prior to March 1, as required by law, there are at least 00 tardy ones in this state who have not yet complied with the terms of the act. and as a special favor the oftice Is accepting registrations for the re mainder of this month, permission hav ing been obtained from Washington.

A fine cf $2000 or imprisonment for five years are the maximum punish ments stated in the law for violators. The act was passed last December by Congress, and is designed to check the distribution of opium, cocoa leaves and their derivatives.

Mr. Wickersham was engaged in 1907 by the Portland business men who took over the United Railways and in the capacity of chief engineer constructed their lines In the city and between Port land and Wllkesboro.

DYES LACKING FOR CLOTHS Textile Factories In Cast Report Shortage Due to War. PENDLETON. Or.. March 15. (Spe ciaDThe shortage of dyestuffs caused by the war is belnff felt seriously by the textile industry of the Nation, ac cording to Manager C. M. Bishop, of the Pendleton Woolen Mills. According- to advices received from tha Kast, many Kastern mills cno not succeed in laying:. in a bfgr supply at the off set of the war. Practically all the dyes used in tex tile mills are made in Germany, says Mr. Bishop. While the dyes have not been listed as contraband, the German government evidently has taken a stand against allowing export to Amer ica. The matter is now in the hands of the State Department. Ftormer Bank President to Be Tried. Judge Frank H. Rudkin in Federal Court overruled the demurrer in the case of Thomas Sheridan, ex-president of the First National Bank, of Rose burs, yesterday and he will have to stand trial on the chargre of having misappropriated bank funds.

TEA PRICES SOAR Prohibition of Sale of Vodka in Russia Affects Market. INFLUENCE IS WORLD-WIDE Changing National Beverage in Czar's Domain Results In Higher Prices for Ceylon, Indian and Other Black Teas. It probably never entered the minds of the American public that the prohibition of vodka would have any influence on the prices of merchandise in this or other countries. There has been a rude awakening. Ceylon and Indian teas hare Jumped from 4c to 8c per pound on account of the greatly Increased consumption of these teas, owing to the prohibition of the national Russian drink. There has been a jump also In black China teas of half this amount, with the very strong probability that these will also ad vance more in the future. If this prohibition continues after the war, there can be no doubt as to the continuation of this advance on teas and probably even further advances, as it will press the production of all the countries producing black (fermented) teas to keep pace with tbe enormously increased consumption that is sure to come about in Russia. All Ceylon and Indian teas are today up from 4c to 8c per pound and Chinese black teas from 2c to 4c per pound, as above stated, and there is a strong likelihood of further advances. These conditions are likely to hold also on account of the great difficulty of getting teas into market because of the heavy short age of shipping facilities and today there are practically no teas to be shipped by rea son of the close of the season and const quent lack of stocks.

Cattle Are Stead There was a strong market at tha stock yards yesterday, particularly for hog aao mutton material The run was only of moderate size for the opening of the week, and good quality was much in evidence.

There were further lnfallable indications of a pauBe in Western business, such as a decline in the tonnage movement and a fall ing off in purchase of general merchandise". Banks in the West are unusually strong In their reserve holdings, and no change from present easy rates is expected before the ending of the first quarter of th. yesr. London's markets were active and strong, the reported succesj of the British troops in France contributing largely toward the improvement. Americans also manifested a firmer tendency abroad.

Rumors of Threatened Hostilities Be. : twees Italy and Austria Re sponsible for Buls;e. CHICAGO, March 16. Foreign buying, as sociated with threatened hostilities between Italy and Austrls, brought about s de cided advance today in wheat. The mark.t closed nervous, 2c to 3c abov. Satur day night. Other gains wer.: Corn, lc to l61c; ats, 6c to c. and pro visions 2c to 17 c. European orders to purchase wheat in cluded not only cash and May deliveries, but also July and September, especially July. Announcement that telegraph and monery order service across the Austro Itaiian frontier had' been suspended tended further to lift the market. Throughout the day the bulls were counting on a decrease of about 3.000.000 bushels in the domcstlo visible supply total, as against an increase a year ago. Crop complaints from th. Southwest had also to some extent a dis couraging effect on the bear side. Corn showed independent strength. Cash houses were buying futures, and so also were country dealers. Speculative call was remarkably active for July oats. Holders of May, though, took profits on a heavy scale, and there was a let-up of Inquiry from the seaboard. Doubling of lard and bacon exports gave firmness to provisions. Strength of guir. helped also to overcome the lnfluenc. of rather free selling that for a while was In dulged in by allies of stockyard concerns. Leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open.
