POWER SUIT ANSWERED least four other suits, in which he TRADE DANGER IS SEEN asks damages aggregating many mil lions of dollars on the probable future value of the Deschutes project. At one time, Mr. Charles was ma jority stockholder In the Oregon Gold Prospecting & Promoting Com pany. Mr. Cake alleges that he sold nearly all his interest in petty por tions to meet current expenses. Mr. Cake refers to the "imaginary, wild, unbusinesslike and impossible schemes and plans" of the plaintiff, "all of which had been exploded and abandoned long before the defendant had ever known or heard of the plain tiff." He also denied that the power project in question is worth $6,000. 000, which Mr. Charles had alleged. Mr. Cake further asks that the de fendants be given relief "against the impositions of the plaintiff." Two Baptized in Columbia. captured product without either profit or Interest on the capital Involved during the period of detention. They were willing that hereafter their ex ports to neutral countries adjoining Germany should not exceed the average quantities exported to those countries during the three years ended August 1. 1914, plus an agreed allowance for an increase of population and other con tingencies. Their proposals were rejected and a counter proposal was made, which the packers declined. The packers were willing to recognize the principle of continuous voyage and were willing that Britain should have full blockade rights under International law. It is said here that the cotton and copper Interests were ready to agree to simi lar conditions, but all efforts to- reach an agreement have failed. For months past the patience and the friendly disposition of the American claimants have been worn threadbare.

New Store Talks Number 13 In the construction of our great new building, all the marble used, and there is much of it throughout the structure, comes irom Ala.ska, taken from the famous quarries at Toke?n, and finished at the factories of the company operating the quarry which are located in Tacorna. The use of American marble is of very recent date, the first American quarry having been opened in 1850. The demand for the Tokeen, Alaska, marble is becoming so insistent that the capacity of the quarries is strained to the utmost. Espe cially is it being sought for use on the Tacific Coast and in the Middle West, and many carloads have been shipped to St. Paul to be used in the new buildinsr be ing erected by James J. Hill for the Great Northern. The marble from Alaska is noted for its beauty, durability and adaptability, and for those reasons was selected for our new building where appearance and service were the requisites.
