Says Judge Rossman.
Jal! sentences will be imposed on
men found guilty of selling Intoxi

announcement made yesterday by Mu
nicipal Judge Rossman.
The judge at the same time fined
two men. found guilty of violating
the prohibition law ?100 each, and
rave each a jail sentence of 10 days.
"In the days when we had the open
aloon it was considered a violation
of law to Bell liquor to intoxicated
persons and it seems to me that it
should be no less a violation now,"
declared the judge.
A. Menoske, proprietor of a soft
Grlnk establishment at Sixth and Gli
lan streets, was arrested by Patrol
men Meacham and Ragan after the
police report&d that samples of "soft"
drinks sold by him tested 8 per cent
alcohol. The test of the liquor was
made after Delia Fletcher, police
court character, had been arrested on
a charge of drunkenness and admit
ted to the judge that she procured
her drinks at Menoske's place.
Aei-uaed Men to Appeal.
The. same policemen arrested B.
Cledoeheff, proprietor of a place at
41 North Third street, after three
drunken men. it is said, were found
ln his establishment. Some of the
drinks which he was selling, the po
lice said, tested 6 and 7 per cent
alcohol.
... Both Menoske and Gledocheff gave
notice of appeal and their bail was
fixed at $250 each.
Mrs. Ruth Freeman. 221 ',4 Morrison
street, pleaded guilty to violating
the prohibition law and was fined
$50 by Judge Rossman. Patrolmen
Fair and Russell testified that she
sold a bottle of home made beer for
a dollar. They reported having
found about 20 bottles of the home
brew in her place.
Iva Freed, police court character,
arrested Thursday night on a charge
of drunkenness when she went to the
police station in an intoxicated con
dition, was given until 10 o'clocK
today to arrange her affairs and be
gin serving out a $10 fine in jail.
Deputy District Attroney Deich,
who chanced to be at the station
"when the woman entered, filed the
complaint against her and testified
against her in court.
Sleep Mmle Impomlblr.
"Judge, he's a cheerful liar; that's
all I've got to say," she declared at
the conclusion of the prosecutor's
testimony.
Deputy District Attorney Deich tes
tified that after she was arrested and
taken to the women's quarters in the
jail she made the night ring with her
cries and screams, so that other oc
cupants of the jail and the firemen in
the building adjoining could not
Sleep.
Patrolman Drapeau, who arrested
Iva Freed, was bragging to his com
panions in the lobby that he was the
only policeman who could arrest her
without having her scream and raise
a small riot in the jail, when she
tarted crying and yelling.
Judge Rossman finally fined her
tlO and told her to serve it out in
jail. She said- she was willing to com
ply with this if she could go home
lirst and deliver some laundry.

PRUNE " 'DAMAGE SERIOUS
Results of Ha in About Eugene Are
Noted by Kruit Man.
EUGENE, Or., Oct. 1. (Special.)
Pamage to the prune crop of the val
ley by the recent rains is beginning
to become serious, rs the statement
of J. O. Holt, manager of the Eugene
Fruit Growers1' association, who has
Just returned from a tour of the
valley.
Mr. Holt said his estimate of a 15
per cent loss in Lane county still
holds good, but in counties north of
here he thinks the damage my be SO
per cent.
It is calculated that if the United
States were as densely populated as
Belgium it would hold all the people
in the world.
LOWER PRICES RULE
If. MARKET FOR HOPS
Five-Cent Decline in Values of
New Crop.
TOP IS NOW FORTY CENTS
More Business Made Possible by
Reduction Buying Is to Fill
Contract Shortages.
The hop market has gone off another 5
cents this week and now stands at the 40
cent level for the flew crop.
As a result of the decline, more business
has developed. Whereas It was a one
man market at the opening of the sea
son, there are several buyers now in the
field, and while the market is by no means
active, it Is showing much more life than
heretofore.
In the past two days. 80O or 400 bales
were bought from growers at 40 cents and
It la reported that two or three lota were
also obtained at 39 cents. There was
buying ' in the Gaston and Sherwood sec
tions, far as could be learned, most of
the purchasing was to fill shortages on
contracts.
Farmers are offering their crops rather
freely In view of the declining tendency
of the market. It remains to be seen
whether enough support will be forthcom
ing from the buying element to check the
(Recline.

The apple crop In Ireland Is a failure
this year owing to Che night frosts during
April and May and also to wind storms
during the first week In May. The late
winter varieties also show a poor yield due
to a great extent to the mischief done by
the apple sucker and the codling moth. In
view of these facts there ought to be a
good market In Ireland for American
apples.
BEST GRADES OK BCTTER STEADY
Market May Be Affected Adversely by
Canned Milk Situation.
The butter market was steady yester
day on the better grades of cubes, but
there was slow sale for undergrades. The
canned milk situation is likely to become
a decided factor in the market, as should
the condenseries close it will mean a
substantial enlargement of the supply of
butter fat. Any advance in butter prices
in the near future is, therefore, out of
question. Whether butter prices will re
cede remains to be seen.
Eggs are feeling the effect of the unset
tlement in all food lines. Most dealers
have reduced their buying prices to 61
cents.,
Poultry was in fair supply and the mar
ket was easy. Dressed meats continued as
weak as heretofore.
Oregon Concord Grmpes In.
Concord grapes have made their appear
ance In the market and are selling at 8
9 cents a pound in lugra and 35 cents In

grapes arrived and offered at 14Mlo
cents a pound.

a box.
Canned Milk Prices Are Cut.
Announcement was made yesterday of a
50-cent decline in a leading brand of
canned milk. The new case prices are $
on tall and $5.60 on small size.
Butter prices" recently declined in the
coast markets because of larger produc
tion and mill feed prices were also re'
duced, yet a rise in milk quotations in
this city was authorized.
Prune Surplus In Jugoslavia.
An exportable surplus of 12,000 wagons,
or 120,000 tons, of dried prunes from Jugo
slavia is estimated for the current year,
according to the American consul at Bel-
I grade. Conditions in this Industry are atj-
normal, because nearly 6000 drying ovens
are out of service, but the ministry of ag
riculture has decided to furnish material
gratuitously for the construction and re
pair of drying ovens.

Owing to the demoralized condition of
the eastern hide markets, some of the

sure of Heavy Marketing.
The readjustment of commodity prices
on a lower plane ' continues. That there
has been no perceptible check to the de
cline is indicated by the fact that Dun's
list of wholesale quotations for the 19th
consecutive week discloses more reces
sions than advances, the former number
ing 51 and the latter 21.
Generally favorable weather, reports of
satisfactory harvesting conditions in most
sections and a disappointing foreign de
mand had a depressing effect on grain
markets, and more or less yielding ap
peared in wheat, corn, oats, rye and bar
ley. A shortage of supplies caused a sharp
upturn in the finer grades of table butter,
and a similar influence resulted in a sub
stantial rise in eggs, while cheese was
firmly held.
In live meats, beef and hogs declined
under pressure of more liberal offerings,
and though receipts of sheep were hardly
in excess of requirements, prices showed
some reduction. Provisions developed an
easier tone, reflecting the situation in raw
material.
Quotations of iron and steel held steady,
and no change of moment occurred in the
minor metals.
The tread of the cotton goods markets
continued reactionary, while the yielding
in hides and leather has not yet ended,
and rubber prices lack firmness. A better
feeling, however, seems to be developing
in silk. :

attention has been directed towards the

Sugars and Other Industrial Stocks
Record Declines Gains Made
by Liberty Bonds.
. NBW "YORK. Oct. 1. The only appre
ciable change in the stock market today
from that of recent sessions was the more
divergent character of the trading. Rails
continued to improve, while numerous
popular industrials and specialties were
at lowest prices in many months.
Entrance into the final quarter of the
year brought little comfort to the con
structive side of the market. The month
ly survey of the federal reserve board.
which stressed the caution prevalent In J
general business circles, seemed to confirm
a feeling long existent in high.' financial I
quarters. I
On the other hand, the rails. It was 1
asserted, are enjoying a boom partly be
cause of belated recognition of their In
trinsic worth, but more particularly be-J
cause of the benefits they are expected to
derive from transportation of bumper
crops.
Among the stocks most affected today
were the several sugar issues, which
broke 2 to B Mi points, Porto Rico sugar
distinguishing itself by a sheer descent
of 15 points on a few transactions.
The rise in rails was the most impres
sive of the current movement, most of the
Junior western and southwestern shares
gaining 1 to 3 points, with a gain of e
for Wisconsin Central. Investment indus
trials, transcontinental and coalers rose
1 to S. The entire list strengthened later
on reports of probable avoidance of the
British coal strike. Sales were 925,000
shares.
Foreign exchange rallied from Its early
depression, although the Argentine rate
made a new low record.
An 8 per cent quotation represented the
high call money quotation of the day.
Bonds, especially standard rails and In
dustrials, made variable gains with lib
erty issue Total sales, par value, ag
gregated $16,750,000. Old United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

Selling pressure on wheat appeared to
be largely influenced by continued talk of
(.'anauian competition ami vy . ..... -
tlmates of the world supply. The estl-
. i.a !...,..... that OiPrA
niaiea u r miu hj -
could be no world wheat scarcity before
May or June. At the extreme of the sub
sequent break in values. December deliv
ery was 9c under yesterday's finish and
March at the lowest yet this season. The
market had frequent rallies later, but
there was wheat for sale on all of the
hard spots.
Big receipts forced corn to a new low
level for the season, but shorts covering
lifted prices again later.
Crop damage reports from Argentina
helped strengthen oats.
Commission house selling of ribs weak
ened the provision market, notwithstand
ing higher quotations on hogs.
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by Overbeck & Cooke company of
Portland said:
"Wheat Prices receded sharply and tne
market ruled heavy until shortly before
the close, when the appearance of short
covering Induced on possibility of a good
export business being done on the decline,
hrotiprht about a recovery of 5 cents from
bottom prices. The close, however, was
not strong. Receipts were small and there
was a slight improvement in the milling
demand which found reflection in slightly
higher premiums for red wheat, although
the premium for hard was easier. No
doubt a good export business was done to
day, but the bulk of it probably was of
Canadian variety ana tne inriuence on
prices In the market unimportant. As
some of our economic students view the
situation, everything In the country from
most vital necessities to the high-priced
luxuries are quoted 'asked' and nothing
bid.' From a speculative viewpoint the
fact must not be overlooked, that hedging
sales make the market susceptible to sharp
recoveries coincident with export buying,
bu! as long as the feeling persists that
deflation is under way, the logical course
should be to make sales on bulges.
"Corn New low prices on the crop were
mad before noon and although a sharp
covering rally occurred later in the ses
sion, there was nothing in the general news
to revive confidence in valors. With Sep
tember out of the way the cash market
qu:ckly readjusted itself by declining 25
cents a bushel from yesterday's prices.
"Oats A better class of buying devel
oped on the decline, but apparently not
because of any change in the situation, but
because the price appears attractive. This
theory that prices are relatively too low
may be correct but we would prefer to
await the appearance of something con
structive to stimulate buying power.
"Rye This commodity was the strongest
on the board, with the trade features active
buying of December by elevator Interests
and houses with seaboard connections. The
readjustment In cash rye was similar to
that in corn and prices were quoted from
2,1 cents to 35 cents lower.
"Provisions Large deliveries on October
contracts let to the belief that there would
be a sharp decline in prices, but when
offerings failed to materialize and some
support was in evidence, shorts became un
easy and buying by that element caused
an upturn."
