of 25 to 50 cents on large lots.
The coast market is gradually fol
lowing the eastern price downward.
Large imports of Hawaiian raw
sugar have helped along the decline,
and so, also have the offerings of
new crop western beet sugar, which
is now coming on "the market.
How much lower sugar will go e
something the dealers do not care to
predict. In some quarters of the
trade the opinion is expressed that
I Am Coming Back Here to Live
Some Day and I Hope to
Die Here," He Saya.
Brigadier-General TT. G. McAlexan-
arr. Known as the "rock of the
Marne. was in Fortland yesterday
before leaving to Join the Sth divi
sion at Atlanta, Ga., but he has not
said "good-bye-' to the west, which,
he says, he loves more than any
other place on earth.
"If I were not a soldier, I would
ay that I didn't want to go east,"
he said last night before his de
parture. "I have been on this coast
since 1S93, and I am very fond of it.
I am coming back here to live some
day, and I hope to die here."
General McAiexander does not like
to talk of those days which won
for him not only his title of the
"rock of the Marne." but dtetin-
guished service medals from all the
allies as we'll. He is so proud Of
his men, however, and so enthusias
tic about his regiment that through
them he came to speak of that time
in July when the German offensive
u at its height.
German Play Smeared.
CrottTumbered more than four to
one, the Z8th regiment, under the
command of General McAiexander,
who was then a colonel, stood their
ground on the three days, beginning
with July 15. until the allied counter
offensive was started at Soissons on
July IS. Those three days marked
the beginning of the downfall of the
German empire, explained the general
yesterday. His men, he said, "smeared
the play of the Germans." as he would
say In speaking of a play in football.
"The Germans could not have
driven us out," he said. "We were In
there to stay, and as long as we were
not entirely cut off we Intended to
maintain our position. Every officer
and every man in the regiment be
lieved that we could whip any num
ber of Germans that could be brought
against us."
The Germans came at the regiment
with absolute assurance of victory,
he stated, but when the American
fire smashed into them they were
filled with amazement, which turned
into dismay when their losses be
came so great. The dismay soon
changed into absolute fright and
panic. The Germane had been told
that all they had to do was to follcv
behind their barrage, but the fight
proved to be an infantry combat. The
loss of the Germans from dead,
wounded and captured in the three
days was more than 6000, inflicted
by the one regiment of the 3th.
In contrast, the 38th itself suffered
only one-eighth of this number in
louses.
Penning; Cltea Rtrlmfirt..
General Pershing in his report to
the secretary of war about the Marne:
defensive said: "A single regiment
of the 3d wrote one of the most bril
liant pages in our military annals on
this occasion. It prevented the cross
ing on its front, but the Germans
who had crossed on either side pressed
forward. Our men were firing in
three directions, but by means of
counter-attacks, delivered at critical
periods, were successful in throwing
two German divisions into complete
confusion and capturing 600 pris
oners." General McAiexander went over
seas with the first division and In
about six months joined the third di
vision on the Marne. He then joined
the 90th division, composed of Texas
and Oklahoma men, and commanded
the ISOth brigade in the St. Mihiel and
the Meuse-Argonne campaigns. On
November 1 and 2 he was in the at
tack when the last German lines west
of the Meuse were broken and the
Germans were thrown back across the
Meuse, Stenay was captured and the
allies were prepared for an attack on
Mont Medy on the morning of the
signing of the armistice.
Sent to Germany.
Prom November until the following
May General McAiexander was with
his division in Germany. When he re
turned to the United Stat'es, he was
sent to fhe general staff college in
"Washington for a year, where officers
are trained for general staff, duty or
for high command.
He was awarded the distinguished
service cross, the distinguished serv
ice medal, the French legion of honor,
the French war cross with two palms
on two occasions.' and the Italian war
cross.
The general was born In Minnesota,
was graduated from West Point,
served in the campaigns against the
Sioux Indians In the winters of 1890
and 1891 and In the Spanish-American
war, including the campaign in Cuba.
He was stationed at the Oregon
Agricultural college as commandant
from 1907 to 1911 and in 1915 and
1916. He came to Portland yesterday,
after a visit of two days in Corvallis
with former friends.
Mrs. McAiexander will stay in Cor
vallis for a short visit and will remain
on the coast for some time before
joining her husband in Georgia,

Amendments Being Considered Will
Come Up Again Before Full
Body on October 18,.
The committee of fifteen, appointed
to draft proposals for amendments to
the industrial compensation act of
Oregon, met yesterday afternoon in
the Chamber of Commerce. Whether
or not an in.lurea employe should have
voice in accepting physicians and sur
geons prescribed by hospital associa
tions or the services of contract phy
sicians, constituted the main subject
to come before the committee.
A sub-committee of three, which
has been working on the hospital as
sociation and contract-doctor phase of
accidents in industrial life, sought the
consensus of opinion of the main
committee. It was Instructed that
the committee favored the right of the
employe to say what physicians he
would have and will now proceed to
devise a method in which such right
can be given the worker. It will also
recommend what method of payment
for such services shall be pursued;
whether from a specific fund, from
the employer or from the employe
himself.
Representing the Oregon Industrial
Accident commission, W. A Marshall
offered suggestions that employers
p.ccept no youti in industry who does
not offer a certificate from the child
kibor commission entitling him to
work. He also suggested that the
committee recommend that a penalty
be proided for employers who fail to
make monthly statements of the num
ber of men employed by them coming
under the industrial accident commis
sion regulations.
The committee adjourned until Oc
tober IS at 10 A. M.
LOGGING UNDER HANDICAP
Fish Backs Said to Obstruct Opera
tions in Xaselle River.
ASTORIA, Or., Sept. 13. (Special.)
The presence of the state fisheries
department racks in'.Naselle river.
Washington, is handicaping opera
tions of the Niagara Logging com
pany, which conducts a camp on the
upper reaches of that stream, accord
ing to George I. Swizer, who has re
turned from a week's visit to that
camj.
The company's ponds are filled
with logs, but it cannot open the
splash dams to release the logs until
after the fish racks are removed,
which will be about October 20. Ac
cordingly, active logging operations
probably will not start before Novem
ber 1. In the meantime the com
pany has a force of men at work
building roads and making other im
provements at the camp.
