MAKE fiO CHANGE
Fruit Commissioner Reid Will
Retain Lownsdale.
AS YAMHILL INSPECTOR
Official Is Doing Ills Duly and Will
Remain in Office Despite Pro
tests of Owners of Dis
. eased Orchards.
restrict Fruit Commissioner James IT.
Reid will not heed the protests of some
Tamhill County men who are seeking
to have M. O. Lownsdale removed from
the, office of Fruit Inspector for that
county. Mr. Lownsdale will retain his
position, and on that point the Commis
sioner is emphatic.
-Mr. Lownsdale will continue to act
ns Fruit Inspector." said Commissioner
Reid yesterday, "and I certainly shall
not pay any attentln to the petition
that has been circulated. I have kept
posted on the movement that Is on in
Tamhill to have him removed, and
know that the stfrners of the petition
are not representative fruitgrowers. On
the contrary, they are people who have
old orchards and who don't want to
omply with the law. Most of them
have a few old trees which supply them
with cooking apples and hog; feed, and
they are totally indifferent to the
rights of their neighbors. Many of the
signers are town people, who have
nothing In common with the interests
of up-to-date, commercial fruitgrowers.
Mr. Lownsdale is only doing his duty
in Tamhill County by cutting down the
diseased trees, and I am determined
that he shall continue to act as Fruit
Inspector there. I only wish there were
more like him in Oregon."
The fruit trade Interests of this city
fully indorse the action of Commission
er Reid and Mr. Lownsdale. The en
forcement of the fruit law has done
wonders in elevating the fruit business
of Oregon, and putting it on a sub
stantial basis. The effects are plainly
evident in the sound quality of the
fruit that is being marketed here and
the better average prices realized by
the producers.
WHEAT MOVIXO AT rXCHAXCED PRICE
Bat Neither Buyer Nor Fellers Are Dis
posed to Operate Heavily.
A little buying is going on in the
wheat market all the time at the quo
tations that have ruled this week. Buy
ers, however, are not very keen after
wheat, and farmers are still disposed
to hold off.
The local flour market has a firm
undertone, with a very fair business
passing. Of the flour price-cutting on
the Sound, the Seattle Trade Register
sa vs:
"The big flouring mills of this sec
tion appear to be scrapping among
themselves, with the result that a very
few of them have made another reduc
tion of 20 cents per barrel on their re
spective brands of flour. A number of
the mills, however, refused to Join the
movement for this reduction, claiming,
very Justly, that at the present high
price of wheat, flour was already sell
ing at too low a figure, and instead of
a further drop in prices, an advance
would be more in order."
Mere Interest was shown in December
wheat at the Board of Trade yesterday,
90 H cents being bid. but sellers asked
81 4 cents. For September 89 cents was
bid against 88 cents Friday. There was
a weaker feeling in oats and barley
was steady.
The following offers to buy were
posted, prices f. o. b. dock, quantities
200 tons each: No. 1 brewing barley at
$25; No. 1 feed barley at J23.50; Ni. 1
club wheat at SSHc; Xo. 1 bluestem,
92c; red Russian, S6c; red fife, 87c; No.
1 white oats, 126.50.
Receipts for the day were 35 cars and
2298 sacks wheat, 4 cars and 1500 sacks
barley. 1510 sacks flour, 667 sacks
bran, 8 cars and 352 bales hay.
The range of futures was as follows

SOME POULTRY 13 CARRIED OVER.
High Price Cause Buyers to Hold Off.
Ejrss, cheese and Butter Firm.
Influenced by the advanced prices ship
pers have sent in larger supplies of
poultry and at the same tlrm the demand
has slackened somewhat. The result was
that Front street did not entirely clean
up yesterday and there was a weaker
undertone in the market, though the
previous day's quotations were fairly
well maintained.
The tone of the egg market was firm.
Extras were quoted at 26g27 cents and
occasional sales were made at 27 cents.
Select stock was not plentiful and the
bulk of the firsts were moved at 25
cents. There is but little demand for
seconds.
Cheese continues very firm on heavy
Northern buying and stocks both here
and at Tillamook have become reason
ably light. I'nles there should be an
advance in the East, however, prices
are not expected to go higher here at
this time.
The butter market was active, firm and
unchanged.

'Flagrant Manipulation in Wall
Street.
DISCREDITABLE TACTICS
Conservative Members Express
Their Condemnation of Day's
Work Much Harm Will .
Result From It.
XEW YORK, Aug. 22. Today's brief
session of the the Stock Exchange was
marked by the most flagrant manipula
tion and extraordinary excitement.
Trading in the two hours aggregated
over 1,000,000 shares, much more than
for any full day of the week. A very
large proportion of this business was
of such a hollow and superficial char
acter as to deceive no one but the
merest tyro. In fact, expressions of
condemnation were quite general
among the more conservative members
after the market's close and the opin
ion that the day's work had caused
Incalculable harm was almost , unani
mous. Two theories were advanced in ex
planation of, the day's extraordinary
proceedings. One was that a certain
group of speculators, prominently
Identified with the Rock Island system,
was being "squeezed" by other large
Interests the object being that of gain
ing control of the Rock Island sys
tem.' The other theory was that cer
tain well known shorts had been given
to understand that they would be per
mitted to cover at the market. Yet
another story, and one that found not
a few believers, was that today's dis
creditable business was Inspired by the
Xew England manipuator whose activ
ities earlier in the week caused no
little alarm.
The market opened with general ad
vances and gave little hint of what
followed. Before the expiration of the
first hour, however, trading assumed
a different aspect, large blocks of the
active issues coming out with , wild
fluctuation. The great bulk of the
business was in American Smelting,
Rubber, Union Pacific, the Steel stocks
and Northrn Pacific. The movement,
when it did not suggest the matching
of orders, had all the ear marks of
a general covering. The day closed
with losses in a number of issuee,
including the Harrimans.
Following the market's close it was
rumored that a bis; delivery of stocks,
estimated at 400,000 shares, would be
made before the beginning of Monday's
business.
The bank statement -was in line with
general expectations, reserve showing
an increase of over $6,000,000. The
percentage of reserve now held by the
associated banks is 29.80 per cent.
London observed a holiday today and
took no part In our operations.
Total sales of bonds, $1,536,000.

Wheat Scare at Minneapolis.
MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 22. Buyers- of cash
wheat got- the upper hand today at the
Chamber of Commerce and forced one of the
biggest declines for a long time. . No.- 1
Northern, that sold yesterday for $1.24, fell
to $1.20 and $1.18, sold freely at $1.16 and
then at $1.12. .
The railroads brought 201 cans of wheat
into Minneapolis, of which 95 care were new
wheat, and nearly all was good milling qual
ity. This indication of a good crop started
selling and forced prices down. The bulls
pointed to the fact that the e:evstor Mocks
of wheat In Minneapolis decreased 197.000
bushels last week and that there 1 a total
wheat supply here of only 617,000 bushels,
while a year ago there was a stock of over
1,000,000 bushels. They look upon today's
sensational decline as largely a scare.

MOT ON SECRET MISSION
Lloyd George's Visit to Berlin With
out Special Significance.
BERLIN, Aug. 22. David Lloyd George,
Chancellor of the British Exchequer, con
tinued his inquiries today regarding so
cial exchange. He visited a number of
insurance companies in Berlin and re
ceived specialists from the government in
the Department of Pensions and Admin
istration. He is to leave here for Ham
burg tonight. It now seems that the
question of naval armament has not
been mentioned between Mr. Lloyd
George and the statesmen of Germany.
The whole Idea that Mr. Lloyd George
came to Germany on a special private
mission to discuss the possibility of an
agreement regarding the reduction of
naval armaments as a sequence to the
meeting of King Edward and Emperor
William appears now to be without foun
dation. The German press has reported
at length the English comment and spec
ulation on Mr. Lloyd George's visit but
there has not been a single speech in
any government or semigovernment jour
nal indicating the willingness of Ger
many to Join with Great Britain In a
naval agreement. The constant reitera
tion has been that the German navy is
not being built with hostile designs
against anybody, but only for the general
protection of German commerce abroad
should occasion arise.
NEW YORK GROWS RICHER
Real Property Shows Enormous In
crease in Assessed Value.
NEW YORK, Aug. 22. The tax depart
ment has1 sent its annual report to the
Mayor. The total assessment of real and
personal property in this city is $7,15S,
190,400. The assessed value of ordinary
real estate, exclusive of special fran
chises and real estate of corporations, is
$6,141,600,119, and the increase in the as
sessed value of ordinary real estate is
437,490,467.
The increase in the assessed value of
ordinary real estate exceeded the aggre
gate assessed value of real estate of the
five states of Florida, Mississippi, Okla
homa, Oregon and Wyoming, which have
an area more than eight times as great
as the whole state of New York.
The assessed value of real estate In the
city of New. York, it is asserted, not
only increases rapidly in the aggregate,
but at the same time Increases per capita,
and on the average the Increase in the
value of New York land amounts to
$1000 and in taxable real estate to $1500
for every baby born in the city. '

Larger Movement of New Crop
Weakens Market.
BREAK AT MINNEAPOLIS
Pressure to Sell Most of Day at Chi
cagoExport Demand Is
Lacking Corn and
Oats Quiet.
CHICAGO, Aug. 22. The situation In
the Northwest, as , related to the early
movement of the new crop, was the dom
inant factor in the wheat market today.
Arrivals of new wheat today at Minne
apolis were 85 cars, against 55 yesterday
and 27 on the previous day. It was ex
pected also that Monday's arrivals would
be much larger. The materializing last
night of predicted frosts in many locali
ties of the Spring wheat country had ap
parently almosf no effect and only caused
mild firmness at the start which offset
the weakness of foreign markets. Soon
after the opening, prices slumped nearly
on9 cent in all deliveries, following a
break at Minneapolis, September declin
ing from 930 to 92i.'and December from
94T4c to 94c. On the decline the market
received fair support from a leading ele
vator interest, which steadied prices, but
the lack of any export demand and the
slowness of trading In cash wheat pre
cluded any material rally. Additional sell
ing pressure developed late in the day,
owing to a break of 12 cents in the price
of No. 1 Northern wheat at Minneapolis,
but offerings were not liberal For Sep
tember t..e low point of the day was
reached at 92c and for December at 93c.
The market closed easy with September
at 93c, December 94c
The weakness of wheat induced consid
erable selling of corn, but the market
held fairly steady, diving to the low tem
peratures which prevailed last night over
the corn belt. The close was steady, with
prices bc to c higher to VtC lower. Sep
tember closed at 77c and December at
65M!66c.
There was very little trade In the oats
market and prices held comparatively
steady. At the close prices were a shade
lower to c higher, September at 49&C,
December at 49c and May at 48c.
Provisions were weak all day because of
profit-taking sales in the September and
October deliveries. Pork showed the
greatest losses, the decline being from
27Vsc to 47&c from the high point of the
day. The close was weak at almost tha
bottom. September pork closed at $14.10;
lard at $9.12, and ribs at $8.55.
