garding the result of pending developments
in the war situation.
With the exception of oils. In which
fluctuations were most bewildering, shares
favored In the preceding session, notably
rails, shippings, tobaccos and high-price
specialties, were under constant pressure.

was among the erratic leaders, reacting 2
points from Its best and closing at a loss
of Ihi points.
Marine preferred was under the influence
of realising sales, rescting 2 points after
sn early show of activity and strength,
while standard rails, especially Pacifies,
forfeited 1 to Stt points.
Coppers snd leathers were consistently
firm to strong, the demand for metals cen
tering about American Smelting. Anaconda
and Utah. Hide 4b Leather preferred made
an additional gain of 3 points, but fell away
aw"ar stocks reflected the changed attitude
of traders, some of the more distinctive
issues of thst division rising 1 to 4 points
with Industral Alcohol and the food ahares.

feature rallying almost 11 points from Its
minimum of the first hour, finishing at an
advance of 5W points. Studebaker gained
6 points Sales amounted to 740.000 shares.

Fire, Was Erected in 18 72.
fiSTACADA, Or., Oct. 15. (Special.)
The recent destruction by fire of Mr.

crossed the continent to Oregon, set
tled in this county and took up the
land on which he later built the house

Here ho resided until his death and
on this farm the Nortons ran a store
for a eood many years, the property

HIGHER MAIiRET RESULTS
FROM PRESIDENT'S NOTE.
Traders Draw Bullish Conclusions
as to Effect of America's Stand.
Government Buying Is Factor.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15. Sharp new advances
in the corn market today resulted largely
from President Wilson's note to Germany.
Latest quotations, although unsettled, were
2c to 44c net higher with November
$1.24 V 1.24 S and December 11.31
1.21 . Oats gained" c to Ho and pro
visions 15c to $1.
Corn traders appeared to be nearly unan
imous in drawing bullish conclusions as to
the effect of the President's stand. In ad
dition, the definite understanding that the
Federal Government might quickly come Into
the market as a liberal buyer tended further
to discourage speculative selling.
Oats went up-grade with corn. Domestic
shipping demand was good.
Word of probable big export requirements
gave decided strength to provisions and so,
likewise, did upturns In tho value of corn
and hogs.

MAYOR BELIEVES CITY CAN SE
CURE HOSPITAL.
Tax Levy of Half a Mill for Construc
tion Purposes to Be Submitted to
Voters Next Month.
A Government reconstruction hospital
for 1000 patients and 750 attendants
and teachers is in prospect for Port
land, if proper efforts are put forth in
the next week or two. Mayor Baker be
lieves. It has been definitely decided by the
commission inspecting sites and con
ditions to visit Portland, the Mayor
announced yesterday, and it is now
strictly up to the city to get the hos
pital with all that it means to the
ciy. It is believed that with a definite
proposition in the way of eites and
buildings to present to the commission
Portland will stand a good chance to
secure the hospital.
A tax levy of half a mill, providing
about $140,000 to be used in building the
hospital, is to be put up to the voters
for approval at the November election.
Another point that will be urged In
Portland's favor is the free sites of
fered by Mrs. Wilcox and S. Benson.
Either would be satisfactory, it is be
lieved. "If the Government would accept, I
believe we could raise half a million
in Portland to put through the propo
sition," said the Mayor, "but I think
all that is wanted is a satisfactory cite
with all the advantages in health and
climate Portland is able to offer them.
"It is a' big proposition, but I think
we can put it over with proper sup
port from the city."
The commission Is expected soon at
Spokane, from whence it will go to
Seattle and Portland.

Let's Keep Oregon's Quota of
Liberty Bonds in Oregon
We want you to help us keep Oregon's quota of Lib
erty Bonds in Oregon. They are too good an in
vestment for us to let our share of them get out of
the State.
For Oregon to oversubscribe her quota of liberty
Bonds in the big drive and then turn around and let
them get away from her is mighty poor patriotism,
and besides it's bad. business judgment.
The greatest Baby Bonds on earth are Uncle Sam's
Liberty Bonds. Let's keep every single one of Ore
gon's share within the state boundaries.
Here's How You Can Help
First Don't sell the bonds you now have and don't
exchange them for other securities offering- a higher
rate of interest, but which may be worthless.
Unforlunately, however, some people are compelled
from force of circumstances to sell their bonds, and
we buy them at the market.
But there are just as many people who can afford to
buy more bonds and thus keep these bonds in the
State.
In order to enable you to get more of these highly
desirable securities and at the same time help to
keep Oregon's quota of Liberty Bonds in Oregon,
we will sell you United States Government Baby
Bonds of every issue on the following plan:
50.00 Bonds $1 down and $1 a week
$100.00 Bonds $2 down and $2 a week
Come in or write and get our booklet telling about
Liberty Bonds.
