1ft THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, JANUARY 15, 1921 SEATTLE PUTS RATE FIGHT UP TO STATE Railroads May Be Ordered to Lower Basin Tariffs. PORTLAND FACES PARITY Movement Started in Washington Is Designed to Sleet Competition and Hold Wheat Shipments. SEATTLE. Wash.. Jan. 14. (Spe cial. ) Effects of the Portland rate case decision against Seattle are ex pected to be eliminated, if a move ment taken up by the port commis sion, yesterday afternoon, received the sanction and support of the state public service commission. In accordance with the suggestion of C. W. Hole of Seattle, a trans portation man of 25 years' experience, the port commission decided that Washington should assert its state rights in the rate fight against the decision of the interstate commerce commission. Rail Rale Cut Proposed. Tt is planned to ask the state public service commission to order the rail roads operating in the state to reduce grain rates 10 per cent from the wheat belt, in southeastern Washing ton, to Seattle, and thus meet the rate authorized by the interstate com merce commission from the same dis trict to Portland. "The question raised by Mr. Hole, and the suggestion of its solution, is of vast Importance to the port of Se attle and I am in favor of making a searching investigation." said Dr. W. T. Christensen, president of the port commission. Immediate Action I red. "We should take immediate action and assert the rights of the state of Washington as a commonwealth." The suggestion that the fight against the decision of the interstate commerce commission might be won by an appeal to the state public serv ice commission was contained in a letter from Mr. Hole to the port com mission ;ind read at an open session of that body. . awaiting trial on a charge of misap propriation of money, William E. Gallevan walked forth from the Ben ton county jail last night a free man. At a conference with counsel repre senting Gallevan and his partners Prosecutor Hamilton decided upon a dismissal of the charge on the ground that no offenee had been committed in Benton county. Gallevan, who is secretary-treasurer of the Ranchers Storage company, was arrested in Portland upon a war rant sworn out by his partners charg- ing that he had failed to account for i about 12000, which, it was anegea. was the proceeds of two cars of ap ples which he disposed of in Butte on behalf of the company and its clients. Relative came to his as sistance and a satisfactory account ing was made. Gallevan was socially prominent, a college man and popular. The prosecuting witnesses declined to press the charge.

Fulton, attorney for the port of Astoria stated today that he will file a petition with the interstate commerce commission for a rehear ing of the Portland-Astoria rate case. The petition will be based, in one respect, at least, upon the allegation that even if Portland is entitled to a differential against Astoria, as a re. ult of the extra cost of haul, she is not entitled to a differential of 10 per cent, as that far exceeds the actual tost of haul, according to the Newel! figures on which the commis sion is supposed to have based its ruling. 1 cow. . 1 cow. . 1 cow . . 2 cows. 1 low . . 1 cow . . 1 cow . . 1 cow. . 1 COS. 1 cow. . 1 cow. . 1 cow. . 1 eow . , 1 cow . .. 1 cow. ., 1 cow . .. 1 cow. . 1 cow. .. 1 cow. ., 1 cow . . , 1 cow. .. 1 cow. .. 1 cow . .. 1 cow. ., 1 cow . .. 1 cow . .. 1 COW . ., 1 COW. . 1 cow. .. 1 cow . .. 1 cow. .. 1 cow. .. 1 cow. .. 1 steer. 6 steers. 2 steers 2 steers. 3 hogs. . 1 hog. .. 1 hog. . . 1 hog... 10 hogs. . 740 700 720 780 660 560 830 950 700 6S0 720 750 700 810 870 780 8S0 800 950 960 930 IKMi 1076 840 950 03O 880 620 650 720 600 520 877 935 763 90 490 200 410 1S6 70 170 933 10O0 710 710 1070 1305 1230 1330 1250 173 167 173 160 183 11.50 11.00 7 00 7.00 7.00 11.50 11 30 11.50 9.00 8 00 8.00 6 30 3.25 5 00 I 00 3.00 5.30 5.50 5 00 5.00 12 00 11.50 12.00 11.73 12.00 12 00 12.00 11.50 11.50 11.50 11.00 12.00 the RAIL EXTENSION FAILS Ida ho Fa rmers U na ble to M eel Financial Requirements. BOISE, Idaho. Janv14.w (Special.) Construction of an extension to the Oregon Short Line railroad system from Homedale to the newly con structed Pickle Butte bridge has been abandoned. A letter received by the public utilities commission of this state was to the effect that the land owners and the railroad committee could not meet the stipulations of the railroad. The distance of the proposed extension Is seven miles. The railroad asked for the right of way and that the farmers do the grading. The farmers, however, have been unable to dispose of their crops and therefore cannot furnish the cap ital with which to do the grading, It is said. 4 00' 1 cow . . 4.00! 1 cow . . 4.00 1 cow . . 4.00) t bull. . 5.00 1 bull.. 5 OO 1 bull . .. 4 7.V 1 hull. .. 4.751 8 hos. . 5 00 S hoes. . 4..V) 10 !--. . 6 OO 10 hogs. . .i0j 3 hosa. . a. 25! 3 noes. . sn ,i Ml 6 hogs. . 232 11 00. 79hos.. 0 8 00t 8 hog. . 124 11.73' 5 hogs. . 132 8.00' 2 hogs. . 135 11 S3 38 hog. . 170 The following ; rice are current at local yards: Cattle Prices.

The proposed pooling of western Ore gon wool, the preliminary steps for which have been taken up by the state farm bureau federation, has the hearty Indors ment of the wool dealers here. The plan, which calls for the consolidation and grading of the numerous small clips In the valley, will facilitate the selling of the wool and should work to the decided ad vantage of the growers. The market contineus quiet. A little wool Is moving all the time with local mills doing the buying. Prices are about unchanged. The general situation has not altered In the past week. Eastern advices report a little more inquiry for manufactured goods at low prices. The trade hopes for the stabilization of the market in the next 30 days by more active mill buy ing. It la rumored that some of the larger mills In the east will try to get under way In the next few weeks. Tariff legislation is also anticipated. The moral effect of the tariff talk has been to create a little firmer feeling in the trade, but it has not yet brought manu facturers into the market. The official statement of wool condi tions In England made in the early part of the month showed an unsold accumu lation In government hands of approxi mately 2.300.000 bales, says World's Mar kets. The government has assured spin ners and dealers that this stock will not be forced on the present depressed mar kets. A very similar congestion is found in the Argentine, In Australia. South Af rica. Asia, and in the United States. Gov ernment assistance in financing the cur rent year's clip is being sought from con gress, following the federal reserve board's refusal to direct assistance. Several recent efforts made in the United States to sell the compartlvely small bal ances of wool offered by the government as the residue of war time purchase Cor war needs resulted in more than 50 per cent of the limited offerings being with drawn, although the prices were constantly rev ied to lower levels. In raw wool the conditio I- exists of many irises being ac tually lower than those quot. d for similar wools before the war. and offerings at these very low prices being declined. It is reliably stated that less than 20 per cent of the current clip passed Into mill bands In the United States last fall. These conditions seem formidable, and can really not be remedied substantially until there is a recurrence of demand for wool Goods in England and. the United States. W. E.

There was a good shipping demand for eggs and this kept the, market firm and absorbed the surplus. Most of the. re selling on the street was at 49 cents. There was no Improvement In the dressed pork market and 14 cents was the top price obtainable. There were also signs of weakness in veal. Poultry was In small supply and steady.

Dun's tomorrow will say: "While progress toward recovery Is more cleat ly discernible, reviving demand in some quarters of late has only developed after further price yielding and waiting Is still the rule in lines where an exten sion ot the price deflation is seemingly foreshadowed. 'indications multiply, however, that cer tain trades are beginning to emerge from their long-continued lethargy, the im provement in dry goods conditions being especially conspicuous and the increased attendance of buyers in some of the lead ins markets Is evidence of their renewed interest and a growing need for merchan dise. while nurchasing is still cautious and restricted, it is larger in some Instance than had been expected and 1. the more who.eeom and reassuring bcause it is based on actual requirements and not on speculative anticipations."

Mill Purchases Lighter. CHTCAOO, Jan. 14 Wheat averaged lower in price today, largely as a result of slackening of export demand. The close was heavy at to 2c net decline with March $1.77 to and May $1.70 to . Corn lost to c; oat 0c to c and provisions 12 ot 20c. Although bulls in the wheat market made some headway for a while, owing to news that rain was an urgent need for the crops of India, the strength which de veloped failed to prove lasting. Famine reports from some provinces of India were also without much permanent Influence on the market, one reason being that de spite the famine, India was credited with having shipped last week 500,000 busheis of wheat, mostly to Great Britain. On tne other hand the amount of export business noted in the United States today appeared to be far less than has been the rule of late and .it was said France and Germany had been buying in Argentina to the extent of 1,000,900 bushels. Gossip was current, too, that enlarged domestic flour trade waa being taken care of chiefly from wheat already on hand at the mills. Seaboard demand for corn helped to keep corn and oats relatively steady notwith standing that rural offerings of corn were liberal. Weakness of the hog market had a de pressing effect on provisions.

The Chicago market letter recelyed yes terday by Overbeck & Cooke company at Portland said: Wheat It was an active mixed trade, with the ntarket encountering; good sup port on the early dips, but later meeting heavy selling by longs and by houses ag-ainst purchases of cash grain in the country. A disappointing feature of the news was the absence of export buying, and, although bids were said to be in the market, they were from 6 to 8 cents out of line. A New York messags telling of some good-sized purchases being made In Argentina gave rise again to the fear that foreign buying In this ountry might be at an end. The domesti: milling demand continues good, but without foreign com petition sentiment woulr turn to the bear side, and It Is patent, therefore, that de velopments in export circles will have much to do with shaping the course of prices In the Immediate future. It is the opinion of leading interests that foreigners will be in the market on any decline. Corn again received the support of lead ing interests on small declines, but on the contrary the bulges brought out contracts in good voLume, particularly from cash houses. In the nature of hedging country purchases. The cash demand was good and prices held firm to a shade higher. Oats Selling by cash Interests was the feature and the volume was large enough to satisfy the buying power. The .cash demand was not eood and the soot trad ing basis was a shade easier. Country pain.

The only feature of the trading was free of ferings of January and May ribs by a prominent packer. The offerings were taken by scattered Investment buyers. Only a moderate cash business is doing.
