LAST DAY RUSH BIG
Tax . Department, However,
Ably Handles Crowd.
MAIL CARRIES LARGE LIST
KBL-t That Most or Property-Owners
.Made Half Payments on State
ments Slakes Harder Work
' for Collector's Aides.
At 9 o'clock last night three tired
cashiers closed their windows ia the
tax department, and the 1913 tax col
lecting season vas over. Taxpayers
fairly poured into the Courthouse yes
terday, but extra facilities for the rush
bad been provided by Tax Collector
Huckabay. and the crowds were handled
quickly and without friction.
In spite of the fact that the crowds
were large, most of yesterday's busi
ness was done by mail. The receipts
for the last day will not be compiled
for some time, but it was estimated
that they would approach the million
viii rk.
The fact that most of the property
wners made half payments on their
tax statements made harder work for
the cashiers, but by the addition of two
desks In front of the cashier's win
dows, congestion was prevented.
Bepinnina- today, a penalty of 1 per
cent will be attached to all unpaid tax
statements. The penalty will increase
for each month the taxes remaining un.
paid, until September 1, when they will
be placed on the delinquent list. State
ments on which half payments were
made will not bo penalized, but .the
remaining half must be paid between
Hay 23 and September 3.
. Total receipts on the 1915 roll up to
and including March 30 were $3,106.
672.83. During the same period last
vear, when fewer half payments were
made, and when the tax levy was
somewhat higher, collections amuumcu
to M. 845.133.80.
Although the total receipts yester.
day were not available, it is expected
they will equal the receipts on the cor
responding day last year. The amount
collected on the last day oi me season
last rear was 1721.411.93.
At the close of business Tuesday
nii-hf 40.810 tax receipts had been is
sued, as against 43.398 on the corre
sponding date last year.
COMMITTKE HAS LIST RKADY FOB
GEOGRAPHIC BOARD.
HIGHWAY POINTS NAMED
Oregon Historical Society and Maxamaa
Co-operate in Slaking Needed
Changes.
Renaming of the points of interest
along the Columbia Highway has been
completed by a joint committee from
the Oregon Historical Society, Oregon
Geographic Board and Mazamas, at the
request of the United Highway Com
mission, and the complete new list of
names will be submitted to the United
States Geographic Board for final ap
proval. Many points heretofore unnamed, have
been named and in certain cases the
old names have been changed where it
seemed appropriate. The most of the
Investigation for the renaming was
conducted by F. X. Riddell, E. C. Sara
mons and George H. Himes.
Beginning with Deadman Creek, just
east of the Multnomah County line, the
committee has changed the name to
Ruckel Creek. In honor of J. S. Ruckel,
one of the original owners of the port
age road around the Cascades of the
Columbia.
The lower falls on Eagle Creek have
been named Metlako Falls. Metlako
was an Indian legendary goddess of the
salmon.
The mountain between Eagle and
Tanner creeks about a mile east of
Bonneville has been named Mount
Wauna, from the legend of the Bridge
of the Gods. This point is about 2500
feet in elevation. The falls in Tanner
Creek have been named Wahclella
Falls, for the Indian tribe that dwelt
along the river near Bonneville and
the Cascades.
The mountain about 2000 feet -high
between Tanner and Moffett creeks Just
west of Bonneville has been named
Mount Munra, in honor of "Grandma"
Jlunra, who for years kept the railroad
eating-house- at Bonneville and who
Is one of Oregon's widely-known pio
neer women. The name Mount Munra
already is used locally around Bonne
ville. The falls on Moffett Creek have
been named Wahe Falls, an Indian
name of the locality..
The mountain just west of Moffett
Creek has been named Mount Wauneka.
an Indian name of the locality. The
stream east of TYarrendale is named
McCord Creek, in honor of W. R. Mc
Cord. a pioneer who built the first fish
wheels near the mouth of the stream.
The falls in McCord Creek have' been
named Elowah Falls.
Devil's Slide Creek west of Warren
dale, Is Instead named Tumalt Creek,
In honor of old Tumalt. who camped at
the mouth of the creek In 185S and
aided the Hamilton family to escape
from the Cascades massacre.
The committee recommends that the
high mountain between Tumalt Creek
and St. Peter's Dome becalled Teon
Mountain, for the very obvious reason
that Mr. Yeon has given so much time
and money In the construction of the
highway and should have his name at
tached to some prominent feature. The
spire directly across Levens Creek
from St. Teter's Dome has been named
Katanl Rock, from an Indian word
meaning 'Tlaee of rocks."
The cliffs in the southeast corner
of section 3. township 1 north,
ranee 6 east. Rest of St. Peter's
Pome, will be known as Mount Kiesano.
Kiesano was the last chief of the Mult
nomah tribe. The high pinnacles be
tween Oneonta Gorge and Multnomah
Falls liave been called Winema Pin
nacles. Near the head of Tanner Creek is a
point known s Shellrock Mountain and
this the committee recommends be
changed to Mount Talapus. a legendary
deity of the Indians represented by the
coyote. There is another Shellrock
Mountain along the Columbia River
near Wyeth. widely known to all trav
elers, and the committee found that
confusion existed.
The committee has christened the
highest point Immediately adjacent to
the Columbia River between Portland
and The Dalles. Mount Nesmith. in
honor of Oregon's pioneer Indian
fighter and Senator. Colonel James W.
Nesmith. a pioneer of 1843. The point
In question is south of Warrendale.
clearly seen from the river, and Is 3878
feet in elevation.
Cub Peak, to the south of Mount
Nesmith, will be changed to Palmer
Peak. In honor of General Joel Palmer,
an Oregon pioneer of 1845.
For Gordon Falls the committee se
lected the name Wahkeena Falls. This
was done for the reason that there is
another Gordon Creek about hree miles
away flowing into Sandy River, and a
Gorton Creek at Wyeth.
The name of the highway Itself U
not yet a settled,' matter. The State
Highway Commission refers to it as
the Columbia Highway, ana me county
officials as the Columbia River iiign
way. The committee was of the
opinion that Columbia Highway would
be better because it was a shorter
name and because the public generally
refers to it bv that name. It is ex
pected that the various officials will
Anally agree on a standard.
Loss of Memory Followed by
- Strange Denouement.
John Rnstema Says He Forgot
W here He Bought Wine and Cafe
Man's Attorney Then Pays His
Fine.
f OHX KUSTEMS was drunk when he
aj was arrested Sunday night. This,
in itself, was not startlingly unusual,
but the fact that the spree had oc
curred on a Sunday led to an Investi
gation. When Rustems was In court
Monday, he declared that he had been
servel with wine Sunday at a grill
at Sixth and Burnside streets. A John
Doe warrant was issued for the ar
rest of the proprietor of the grill.
James Demos, the owner of the res
taurant, was in court yesterday morn
ing to answer to the charge of selling
liquor without a license. He denied
selling Rustems the wine. Rustems,
who had been held as a witness, was
called to the stand.
"I don't remember." said Rustems.
"I was drunk from the Saturday be
fore. I ara not sure that I bought
any wine at that grill at all. Maybe
I only thought I did. I can't remember
whether any was served me there or
not."
"H'm," remarked Municipal Judge
Stevenson. "Strange lapse of memory."
Demos was dismissed and Rustems was
fined $20 for beng drunk.
Not having the money, Rustems was
led back to JaiL Incarceration was not
to be his fate. Attorney W. W. Banks,
representing the grill-owner, returned
and handed Deputy City Clerk Crounse
two $10 bills for Rustems' fine.

WOOL SALES SILL
Only

Yakima County.
in
MILL AGENT IS PURCHASER
About Half Million. Pounds Bought
by American Woolen Company
at 16 to 26 Cents Oregon
Shearing Starts Today.
The Yakima country continues the only
place in the Northwest where the wool mar
ket Is at all active. So far, only one trajer
has been operating- there, the agent of the
American Woolen Company, who has pur
chased about 600,000 pounds. The prices
paid ranged from 16 to 1 cents for fine
wool and 23 to 26 cents for crossbreas.
Isldor Koshland, ot this city, who has
just returned from North Yakima, says that
shearing Is general at all points in tnat sec
tion, and the wool Is coming on in veu
good condition, being much better than In
some years. Further business In Yakima
wool is exnected in the near future.
The first shearing in Oregon will start
at Arlington today. No effort is being made
yet by buyers to operate In the Eastern
part of this state. From the lack ot eariy
contracting in Oregon. It is believed that
nearlv all the clip will be held for tne reg
ular sales days. The first public sale In
Oregon will be held at Pilot Rock about
May 2S.
Elsewhere in the West, business continues
quiet. In Idaho, buyers and sellers are
apart and In other states much the same
condition prevails. Although the marKets
in the Hast have quieted down materially.
there is still much excitement In the grow
ln sections. In reviewing the market sit
uation at Boston, the Commercial ouiieun
says:
"The week has been in large measure
a repetition of those which have Imme
diately preceded it, except for the excep
tionally large arrivals of foreign wool,
amounting to almost 17,000.000 pounds. Or
this wool, which has come into port this
week. It Is said that 80 to 00 per cent of
It has been sold to arrive, although some of
it doubtless was purchased by dealers spec
ulatively and is still available to go into
consumption. However, a very large pro
portion of it, doubtless 75 per cent, has been
purchased by the mills and is being rapidly
approved as a general thing, on the docKs.
"Of the sales which have been made here
this week, a very large proportion has been
foreign wool to arrive but a little domestic
wool has also changed hands and some spot
foreign wools. Domestic scoured sorts are
Irregular in price and not any more active
than they were a week ago.
"Values are, generally speaking, on
firm level. The dullness has necessarily
had its effect on the prices of certain do
mestic wools, but fundamentally the mar
ket Is strong and there seems little likeli
hood of much change in the near future.
Buyers all along the line show a disposition
to wait, although there seems to be a bit
more acceleration towards the consuming
end of the trade."
BUYERS REDTJCEi BIDS FOB WHEAT
Offerings Are Hot Large and Sellers Will
Not Make Concessions.
Wheat bids were cut sharply at the Mer
chants' Exchange yesterday, but sellers
were not so ready to give way. Only two
sales were made, as follows:
5000 bushels May club $1.27 tj
5000 bushels April fife 1.23 M
The club was bought at a half cent de
cline, while the buyer of the fife paid 3tt
cents more than Tuesdays bid, but the mar
ket otherwise was off, bids for prompt de
livery being down 2 to 7 cents and May
wheat bids 3 to 5 cents lower. Barley and
oats bids were also reduced. .
There is a difference of opinion as to the
amount of April wheat to be delivered on
contract. Some grain men believe the quan
tity is very large, but It may prove less than
the volume of March deliveries, when settle
ments were made a month ago. However,
the market had gone off only about 10 cents,
but now things are different. Deals In April
wheat were put through early In February as
hlh as $1.63 for bluestem. Yesterday tne
best bid for prompt bluestem was $1.22, and
sellers asked $1.23. The decline In other
kinds of wheat has been almost as severe.
The speculation, therefore, has been costly
for some members of the trade.
The slowing down of wheat business has
been due chiefly to the scarcity of tonnage
and as no relief In this respect Is In signt.
dealers look for a dragging market from now
on. March transactions at the exchange were
the lightest of any month this year. Tne
total business of the first quarter, however,
makes a good showing. The sales in the past
three months were as follows:

car of Winnlngstadt cabbage arrived and
offered at 2 to 3 cents a pound.
Receipts of Eggs Are larger.
A few speculators are still receiving eggs
on contract at 19 and 19 cents, but the
market on the street is weak with 18 to 1SH
cents quoted by sellers. Arrivals are large
and a further decline In prices Is looked for.
Receipts of poultry were liberal yester
day, but there was a good demand and
prices were unchanged. Dressed meats were
also plentiful and fairly steady.
There was no change In the dairy produce
market.
Csscara Bark at London
Mail advices from London say of the cas-
cara bark market: "Although stocks here
In public warehouse amount to about 130
tons and in private warehouse about the
same, our remarks of last week have now
been confirmed by other houses, and certain
operators have startled the market. Old
bark is 45s and new 43s. We had an offer

WHEAT TURNS HEAVIER
EXPORT DEJIAJVD IS SLACK AND
PRICES GIVK WAY.
Cable Inquiries at Seaboard lor New
Crop Fall to Check Downward
Trend of Market.
CHICAGO, I1U March 3L Wheat turned
heavy today In the absence of any Important
new export business. Ttve market closed
weak, 144 c to 154o under last night. Other
leading staples, too, suffered a net decline
corn to l144c, oats 44 tor 14c, and pro
visions 7 44 to 30c.
Notwithstanding that wtieat at first made
some show of strength, it was not long until
the bears grabbed control. Higher quotations
at Liverpool had much to d with the early
gains here, but seemed to oe eased in the
main on bullish Argentine crop estimates.
The upturn was quickly taken advantuge of
both by longs and shorts, especially as do
mestic field conditions were generallv auspi
cious, the only fresh complaints being of dry
weather in Illinois. What made the down
ward tendency conclusive, however, was dis
appointment at the apparent lack of any
urgent trans-Atlantic call. Word that the
seaboard had cable inquiries for new-crop
wheat failed to evoke any enthusiasm here.
Corn was under selling pressure all day.
Oats showed the effect of the bettor out
i,oir for RBprilnir. Arrivals at primary points
were large, with no word of any export clear-
Continued heavy receipts of hogs In the
West compared with last year, seemed to
call for lower values on provisions. Rather
aggressive selling, though, was required to
make the market give way.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
