PftTROGRAD, via Ixmdon, April 19. Russia's allies need have no fear that she will desert the alliance or weaken her resistance to the enemy. Professor raul Milukoff, the Foreign Minister, said today in an address to the repre sentatives of British and French work ins men, who are now in Petrograd. "We understood that at the moment of the revolution you might be afraid we would lose our strength for resist ance," said the Foreign Minister. "I begr you to announce to your country inent that Free Russia has become doubly strong through democratization and that she will overcome all suffer ings which war entails; that despite the revolution we stand firmly for the principal object which was Imposed on us. Russia will continue the cru sade for annihilation of German mili tarism with the greatest intensity, for our ideal is to prevent all possibility )f war in the future. Our present prob lem consists of organizing our forces for defense, shaken by the revolution. We shall encounter the enemy with re doubled strength, confident of victory." Peace Talk Denounced. The Russian press considers the semi-official German and Austro-Hun-earlan notes concerning the possibility of conciliating the war aims of the central powers with those of Russia as a "base, treacherous and hypocrit ical" maneuver. The Rech, in reiterat ing that the Russian provisional gov ernment is pursuing no aims of con quest, declares it is fully and entirely in agreement with the views expressed by the representatives of the other en tente powers. "The enemy precipitately deduces a Russian desire for a separate peace in these notes scarcely more clever than the proclamations thrown into the Rus sian trenches Inviting the peasants to return to their villages and share the estates of the landowners," says the nawspaper. "These notes will have no better success than the proclamation In the naive attempt to embroil Russia with her allies." Austrian Declaration Criticised. Emphasizing the monstrous sophism of the Austrian declaration that the aim of the dual monarchy is to give the peoples the right to regulate their own destinies the war aim announced by the Russian provisional government the Rech continues: "Our enemies are trying- to avoid any 41 h igh-grade COATS reduce d to $22.50!

Just as they abstained from replying to the definite appeal by President wuson. The Russian people know why they are continuing the mortal struggle. They respect the obligations arising from their alliances and will not give up their rights." Petrograd papers severely criticise a speech made by one of the returned Socialist exiles, Lenlne, in which he ad vised the provisional government to solicit peace with Germany. The Rus skoye Volla says that there is no dif ference between Lenine and Stunner, both of whom sought to impose on Russia a shameful and disadvantageous peaoe. The Novoe Vremya says that the Russian people never understand the psychology of Lenine and his friends, "which Is that of William and Hinden-burg."

President Menocal, in a long message to Con gress, asks for authorization of a $30,- 000,000 bond Issue. He proposes to use the money for the payment of indem nities for losses caused by the revolu tion, for expenses of the war with Ger many and co-operation with the United States. The President gives a long list of articles on which he proposes to place revenue stamp tax for the payment of interest on the bond issue. He sug gests that such bonds could be used as part collateral on a loan from the United States Government if needod later. The list Includes stock ex change operations, commercial paper, bills of retailers and ship clearanoe papers. The message declares that Cnba "is not a lukewarm ally which rejects sacrifices and begrudges efforts In aid of the common cause."

In a crisis like this, it is unfair for the person with large or even moderate means to buy in hupre quantities, leav ing the poor to buy from a depleted store at advanced prices." A rise In the price of bread Is looked on by bakers as inevitable in view of the advance in flour. The suggestion said to meet with most favor among bakers is to do away with the 6-cent loaf, the recent successor to the old time 5-cent loaf, and to reduce the size of the 10-cent loaf.

May rose 7 cents to $2.40 and July 8'A cents to I2.05U. There was a complete recovery of prces from yesterday's slump, occa sioned by the removal of duty on Cana dian wheat. At Minneapolis the flour mills were reported swamped by shipping orders and embarrassed by inability to g-et enough cars. Last week the flour out put decreased 28,055 barrels as com pared with the same week a year ago. Sales, however, were made at prices hitherto unknown. Demand from the larger dealers fell off. but that from the family trade Increased. Purchase of canned goods for Sum mer delivery has pushed up the price of the new crop, not yet planted, In some instances 100' per cent. The re mainder of last year's canning has risen proportionately. Housewives have taken fright and are laying in hutre stocks at hue prices. The enormous purchases of canned goods and other staples has forced many retailers to set limits on marketing. Grocers in residential dls tricts declare that the demand for sup plies has been so great that they cannot meet It, Restrictions have been placed on the sale of canned (roods, flour, sugar and soap. It Is hoped that by holding off consumers who are panio- stricken the market .may be stabilized.

GOLD INJURES STOCK Cattle in Poor Condition, When Market Is High. 40 DAYS OF SEASON LOST Eastern Oregon Stockmen Find Pasture Limited Sheepmen Suf fer Losses In Stunted Lambs and Deaths of Animals. BAKER. Or., April 19. (Special. Eastern Oregon stockmen are sayin unpleasant things about the long Win ter. With beef bringing J10.50 a hun dred on the Portland market, the high est price known for years, thoy are be moaning the fact that feeding condl tions have made it impossible for them to cash in on the war-time prices. " e have lost fully 40 days of our grazing season." said Fred Phillips, one of Baker County's leading stockmen, and but half the grazing land la open. When these two conditions are figured, it Is easy to see why the present high prices will bring little excess profits to the cattle raisers. "For the past two months the feed situation has been extremely acute in most sections in Eastern Oregon. This has naturaly left the stock in poor con dition. It was hoped that all of the grazing land would clear at the same time permitting the stock to scatter. As it Is, however, they have to be bunched and what little grass there is available is being rapidly used up. "Most of the etockmen cannot hope to take advantage of the present gen erous prices unless they fatten their cattle in the stall. This, of course. eliminates a good deal of the profits. "Sheepmen have suffered, too, only their losses have been due to stunted lambs and deaths during the lambing season because of the intense cold. "The average market price for beef for the past 10 years has approxim ated $6.50 a hundred. With war clouds looming so ominously, the cattle and sheepmen were confident of reaping a rich harvest. Now they will be lucky if they have a normally prosperous year." Haltien Ministers Named. WASHINGTON. April 19.
