OATS MARKET GAINS
Bids at Local Exchange Are
Advanced Another Quarter.
NO SELLING IN COUNTRY
TVar Prospects in Mexico and Firm
ness of California Barley Are Fac
tors in Strengthening of Mar
ket AVheat la Steady.
Ther was another advanca of & quarter
In t-tie local oats market yestordar. The
proapecta for war with Mexico ia on of
tha main factora tn the .strength of the
market, and another is the firmness of
barley in California. There were rumora
In the trade yesterday that small amounts
me otti had already bean taken by the
Government. 6 ell era In the country have
practically withdrawn from the market.
"Wheat bids at the Merchants Exchange
fwre unchanged from Saturday. Crop pros
pects have been greatly Improved by the
plendld rains that have fallen In all parts
of the Inland Empire. Now that they are
Assured of a new crop, farmers are more
disposed to sell some of their old wheat.
The demand Is limited to a few odds and
nda requirements. Nothing can -be done
with California by water, either In wheat
or flour, owing to the dock strike. Rail
freights to the southern half of California
are prohibitive. Emergency shipments can
be made to Northern California by rail,
but these are being cut down to the min
imum, owing to the additional cost, the rail
rate being- against the normal water
rate of $2.50.
There was a better feeling in the Eastern
market, the stimulation coming from crop
damage reports and Mexican war news. The
Improvement in the European markets was
offset by the strengthening of Atlantic
freights.
The United States visible wheat supply
ts 42.647,000 bushels, a decrease of 600,000
bushels; corn, 7.76S.00O bushels, decrease
It. 859.000 bushels; oats, 14.06,000 bushels,
decrease 47U.00O bushels.
North American exports last week in
cluded 440.000 bushels of corn and 3.700,000
tiushels of oats.
John Inglis estimates the crop
of the
"Winter wheat states In the
Middle West
ca follows:
Oklahoma, 25,000,000 bushels; Kansas, 105,
4V0,OGO bushels; Ohio, 24,000,000 bushels;
Indiana, 27.000,000 bushels; Illinois, 23.000,
(i0 bushels; Missouri, 20,000,000 bushels;
Michigan, 13.000,000 bushels total of 305,
C' 00,000. compared with last year's produc
tion of 401.000,000 bushels..
Foreign crop conditions, according to
Uroomhall, are as follows:
United Kingdom The general appearance
of crops Is promising, and Spring seeding
fair. Fodder crops excellent. The weather
continues unseasonably cool and warmth is
most desirable.
France Winter crops promise well and
the outlook for Spring crops improving
moderately, but weather is against best
developments, as warmth is needed and
acreage will be fully 3,500,000 acres under
normal. Officials have revised their re
jioit of May l, but changes are not im
portant, but less favorable,
Germany All reports available confirm
unfavorable weather, being cool and wet.
liye is thought to be in a poor condition.
Russia Generally all advices are favora
ble as to growing conditions, but acreage
will be much under normal. Stocks large
but little moving.
India ryness continues and harvesting
Is progressing rapidly. Estimates of yield
and quality are being lowered. Wheat
offers held above the market.
Argentina Weather favors planting and
acreage will be fully 10 per cent over last
year. Stocks large, but wheat offers held
above the market.
Australia Weather continues wet over an
important area, tnd the general agricultural
outlook Is promising, but acreage will be
10 to 15 per cent under last year and
perhaps more.
Balkan States Crop promise generally
fair, but weather unfavorable. Greece re

According to a roport which comes to the
Commerce Department from Barcelona, un
der a law passed last year the Spanish gov
ernment is f-rnpowered, when circumstances
warrant, to reduce temporarily customs
duties on foodstuffs, to acquire and sell
such merchandise, and to adopt any meas
tires that may be deemed expedient In rele
tlon to vessels flying the Spanish flag.
Recently, as a result of the lowering- of
the stock of wheat In a province of South
m Spain, the government requisitioned i
cargo of 6000 tons of wheat en route from
Argentina to Spain. Under the direction of
the governmental authorities, the ship
ordered to proceed at once to the port where
the bread shortage was threatened. Under
the plan adopted with reference to the
shipment of wheat, the cargo was placed
at the disposal of a millers association at
2.94 per 100 lbs., with the obligation that
the millers sell the flour at S3. 92 per lOO
pounds.
By reducing the freight cost the expecta
tion Is that the net cost of the wheat will
not exceed the amount fixed as the gov
ernment's selling- price therefor. In addition
to this, the consignees to whom the wheat
-was originally shipped will be Indemnified
by the government.

LIST CARRIED DOWN
Stocks Lower Under Much
Pressure to Sell.
MEXICAN CRISIS IS CAUSE
Investment Shares as Well as Specu
lative Issues Suffer Heavily in
Bay's VnloadingCorn Prod
ucts Order Also Factor.
NEW YORK, June 2. Las week's liqui
dation was resumed on a broader basis to
day, the movement being one of almost
steady declines, with some slight recovery
at the close.
The Mexican situation was again the par
amount factor, although other developments,
such as the Federal Court order directing
the dissolution of the Corn Products Refin
in g Company and less optimism regarding
crop prospects helped to bring; about the
general shrinkage of values.
Corn Products common, on an extraordi
nary large overturn, made an extreme de
cline of 5 to 13 H, with 11 for the pre
ferred at 85. Mexicans averaged losses of
2 to 4 points, with 6 for Petroleum. Motor
and the war group were 2 to 8 points down,
with 9H for Bethlehem Steel before it re
bounded. United States Steel menifescted actual
heaviness for the firs time In weeks, de
clining hi to 82 with but little recovery.
coppers and tne zinc snares were nen.
weak, and shipping Issues were again
adversely influenced by rumors of further
reauctions In ocean-going rates. cm tea
States Industrial Alcohol added SH to Its
lfii-polnt depreciation of the preceding week.
The weakness of standard rails, particu
larly Reading, which was also the most ac
tive feature, was perhaps the most discon
certing feature of the session. Offerings of
these stocks were most insistent, Reading
at its worst stowing a loss of 5H points.
Other coalers, Canadian Pacific, boo.
Union Pacific, New Haven and Southern
Railway preferred receded 1 to 2 points.
Total sales of stocks amounted to 670.UOO
shares.
The Atchison system reported a net in
crease of $1,534,000 for May, giving especial
point to tne continued nign pressure oi
Western freight movement, whicn snowed
general gains of 10 to 15 per cent over last
week.
In the exchange markets, the only notice
able change was the greater firmness of
rates on Paris, foreshadowing the comple
tion of the new French loan by our bankers.
Bonds were heavy with general selling
of the more speculative issues. Total pales,
par value, $2,720,000. United States bonds
were unchanged on call.

ROADS ARE SLIPPERY
Automobiles Near Pendleton Collide
and Occupant Hurt.
PEXDIfflTON', Or.. June 26. (Spe
ciai.j iwo automoDiies were over
turned, one. car was thrown in a ditch
and Edward Williams sustained
broken shoulder bone as & result
automobiles skidding on the slippery
roads yesterday. None of the cars
was damaged to any extent. Whil
coming down the grade from BIngrham
Springs the Dos Swearing-en car skidde
over the bank, pinnlns beneath it tb
five occupants. Mr. Williams was the
only one injured.
It required two horses considerable
time to extract the John Mumm ma
chine from a ditch into which it had
skidded. Many who started toward the
mountains were stuck in the deep mud.
The condition of the road after the
heavy rainfall made driving very dan
gerous and many serious accidents
were narrowly averted.
SURVEYING WORK PUSHED
Straliorn Road From Silver Iaake to
Klamath Falls Likely.
KL.UfATH FALLS, Or., June 26.
(Special.) The surveying party en
gaged In running the lines for Robert
E. Strahorn's proposed railway system,
the Oregon, California & Eastern Rail
way, on the stretch between Silver
Lake and this city, is now reported
working south of Yainax, or more than
half way to this city. As a result,
there is much speculation in that sec
tion, for the people now believe that
the route is being seriously considered.
It will be only a comparatively short
time before the surveying party reaches
Klamath Falls.
The most difficult portion of the
stretch to work on account of the
topography of the country has been
passed. The remainder of the survey
is practically over level country and
will be made. It Is expected, in a very
short time.

CONVICTED MAN SCORED
Arsonist gets verbal lashing
AXD IS PAROLED TO MINISTER.
Charles McDanirla la Told Bla Conduct
Is More Perfidious Than Asso
ciates Now In Prison.
Though Circuit Judge McGinn toM
Charles McDaniels that his conduct
was more to be condemned than tnat
of Hugh Priest or Thomas Patterson,
now In the Penitentiary for arson, he
extended a parole to McDaniels yaster
day. owing to the strong appeal mad
for the convicted man by Rev. W. O.
MacLaren. of the Prisoners' Aid 6o.
cietv. A sentence of from one and
half to five years was inflicted and th
man paroled to Rev. Mr. MacLaren.
McDaniels was round guilty of an
attempt to commit arson, in connection
with th lire in tne university eningi
mill of the L. B. Menefee Lumber Com
pany. February 16. 1915.
"This ts the laast chance you will ever
eTet," Judge McGinn told the convicted
man. "There isn't a laboring man in
the city who believes in labor and Its
advancement who would Justify your
conduct. Ion and your associates came
over here with an unlawful purpose
toward the Menefee mills. You had it
In your mind to do a wrong: to a com
pany which never did you any wrong.
The only harm it ever did was to try
to provide you and your associate
with work.
"Your conduct has been nerfldlous
throughout." Jndge McGinn continued.
That of Patterson and Priest shines
by comparison with yours. You were
perfidious with your employers. You
were perfidious with Patterso and
Priest. You were perfidious with the
District Attorney, who permitted you
to go providing you would return when
he wanted you."
Judge McGinn further declared that
me penitentiary crusnes out or a man
all the good that can possibly be in
him. and that, combined with the a
peal of Rev. Mr. MacLaren, who "made
himself almost a hostage for McDan-
lels if l would release him to him
made an "Irresistible plea for a parole.
