It ts the xylos todoris luteolus and the visitor has journeyed all the way from Cuba to sample the quality of the tender ehoots of the ro"al palms here.

The defenders are attempting to repel the invader with a spray composed of one part of nicotine sulphate and li'OO parts of water, i ne insect is yellow and an adult specimen is about one-half inch In length. "This is the first record of a xylos lodoris luteolus in this country," said .Mr. Moznette. "The insect was re cently described in Cuba by Barber, with the host plant given as oreodoxa.

Discovery that Thomas Ryan, three times mayor of Syracuse and wealthy president of tne 1 nomas Kyan Consumers' Brew ing company, left a third will is the latest development in a long legal fight being waged by Mrs. Jennie an. tne widow, against Mrs. Flor ence -May Kyan Myron, the ward of xtyan. . Ryan, for years a power in upstate democratic politics, left an estate of approximately oOU,U"U. The third will, to be offered short ly for probate, is in possession of Attorney John Walrath, ex-district attorney. It fs said to have been made Feb ruary 18 of this year. Although its provisions have not been announced, they are said to be practically the same as those of a will drafted in October, 1920, making Mrs. Myron chief beneficiary. The Ryan will of 1914 is the one that Ryan's relatives are asking to have probated. The petition charges duress and un due influence in the making of the 1920 will. , While Mrs. Ryan is cut off with a tlO.000 annuity in all wills produced to date, nephews and grandnephews of the Ryens also suffer in the 1D20 will. i ;.,., rt,,t that anv other weapon nu it Would be simple to devise high ex plosive shells which would liberate large quantities of carbon monoxide, against which all known protective measures are uselees.

A surprise was sprung by Kerr, Gifford & Co., grain exporters, yes terday, with the announcement of th cnarter ot another Japanese steamer, the Meiwu Maru of Mitsui & Co.. to carry a cargo of wheat from Port land to Europe this month. iAs the close of the cereal year was only te.n days off, maritime interests had looked upon the previously an nounced list of tonnage en route as final for this season and had struck tentative totals for the business of the cereal year. , The Meiwu Maru, however, is al ready well on her way here from the orient: in fact, is expected here by tomorrow. AID' TO CHINESE FAVORED Japanese Students Advocate Use of Boxer Fund for Scholars. TOKIO. The students of the Kyoto Imperial university have passed a resolution declaring that the Japanese1 snare of the Boxer indemnity should be expended in the interest of Chinese Students in Japan, and have appointed a committee to enlist the support of tne ioKio Imperial university stu dents. The Kyoto students declare 'that Chinese students in Japan should re ceive a heartj.' welcome, sympathy and comradeship from the Japanese students, and expressed regret that the 10.000 Chinese young men in Japan of a few years ago have de creased to a small fraction of that number, in addition to which the Chino-Japan agreement -respecting Chinese students in Japan will be al lowed to lapse on its expiration this month. This will mean the practical disappearance of the Chinese students. the principal cause of which is the Indifference displayed toward then? by the Japanese. Ttto JapnneKe Loading. Two Japanese steamers the Port Said Maru and the Boston Maru are now loading wheat here for Europe, and a third the steamer RyVifuku Maru is on her way here from the orient. The Meiwu is the fourth . to be fixed for the European grain trade out of Portland, and it is reported hat charters have been signed for a fifth and possibly a sixth. The business of carrying wheat be between the American Pacific coast and Europe is a new one for the Jap anese, but they have entered it with sest, cutting rates considerably be low those .offered by British tramp teamers and Scandinavian motor- hips, operating at less expense than ny steamship of their size afloat. The rates of both the Britishers and Scandinavians were already below those of the shipping board. Grain Shipment to f'ontlnne. ' Grain shipments from Portland to Europe will continue without a break through the end of this cereal year nd the beginning of the next, ac cording to the principal exporters. Tonnage now in sight will take care of as much grain as can be han- led comfortably over the docks in the present stage of hinh water, and several bookings have been made for July shipment. Though the season ends officially June 30. old crop wheat will continue to be shipped in July until the new crop wheat begins to be delivered. ; Pacific Coast Shipping Xotes. -OR.tYS HARBOR, Wash..

Sympathy for Eng land has always been very- strong in Hungary, but tbe last two years it has been approaching Anglophobia. Attempts have been made lately to transplant to Hungary the conven tionalities of British society. A "league for the propagation of British etiquette has been formed, which is trying to reform some modes of Hungarian intercourse. The league first concentrated its efforts to - aDonsn tne customary shaking of hands and long conversa-J tions inevitably following the casual meeting of two persons and to re place it by a simple "How do you do?" With this object the members of the league are strolling the whole day along the streets, yearning for op portunities to instruct the public in the new way of greeting and parting. When any unsuspecting friend. with the smiling anticipation of a conversation on his face, 'nears the Anglo-maniac, stretching out both his hands warmly, the member of the league stiffly bows his head, cries "how do you do?" and hurries away before the thunderstruck individual has time to recovers "We have done our best 'for the introduction of this good old Eng lish manner of greeting, but with lit tle result," stated Baron John Bornemizza, president of the league. "Somehow short greetings do not agree with our society. I just met a friend and, when passing him, I said the new 'how do you do?'

SEAMEX'S STRIKE NEARS END Walkout. Expected to Be Declared ' Off at Seattle Confcren c. A settlement for the Pacific coast of the marine 'strike that has been on since May 1 will be reached In a meeting which will start tomorrow morning in Seattle, it was stated con fidently last night by Barney Dionne, business gaent for the Portland branch of the Marine Engineers Beneficial association. The meeting will be attende dby delegates from all the local branches of the en gineers' association, and these dele gates will have authority to act. The strike will be over officially with the return of the licensed en gineers to work. Men for all other positions aboard the vessels havj been available in sufficient numbers ever since the strike started, and only the firmness of the engineers in refusing to accept posi'ions at the reduced scale of wages has caused ship owners and operators any em barrassment. . Mr. Dionne was unwilling to give. an opinion as to what terms will be reached in the conference, but said that the narine strike, which exists only on the Pacific coastat present, would be ended at this meeting. A settlement between the national representatives of the Marine Kn gineers' Beneficial association and the shipping board was reached in Washington more than a week ago. The terms of this agreement were satisfactory to" the union engineers of the Atlantic coast and ithey re turned to work. A referendum of the matter to the marine engineers' unions on this coast, however, showed majority in iavor oi reiusing to ratify the agreement. Mr. Dionne expected to leave for Seattle last night and to return to this city tomorrow night or Thursday. Pacific Exchange Selects Promi nent Berry Expect to Handle This Year Production.
