November shipments of grain, for
eign, opened yenterday -with the clear
ance of the British ehip Wynnstay,
Captain Williams, for the United King
dom with 90.377 bushels of wheat, val
ued at JS5.860. The vessel is outbound
for orders and Is the first one on the
list for November exports of wheat.
The regular Pacific liner Nieomedla got
away the second day of the month with
upwards of 62.000 barrels of flour.
There has been a considerable falling
off in the grain shipments since Octo
ber. This is largely due to the fact
that prices are lower in Liverpool and
Iindon than in Chicago and also to
the extraordinary amount set afloat
during October. During that month
ships were loaded and cleared as fast
as they were ready.
Offshore lumber business opened
with the clearance of the schooner
Crescent, which is loaded with 1.701.698
feet, bound for Guyamaa, Mexico. There
has been a great falling oft in this busi
ness of late but the coastwise business
has been picking up and there is a
bright outlook for good lumber trade
to California during the vnext six
months.
C Jollve, of the French ship-broking
firm of C. Farvacque & Company, has
returned to Portland from San Fran
cisco. Mr. Jollve reports shipping con
ditions at the Bay City as practically
the same as at Portland. There is still
for shipment in California about 120,
000 tons of barley and charters have
been made for only about five or six
cargoes. He looks for a revival in
charters to California ports shortly. In
that case there will be a brightening of
the local market.

ago In the Circuit Court, alleging
cruelty. If the woman did not get a
divorce In some way before marrying
the Danish nobleman, then she is liable
to prosecution.
i..e divorce was granted on the
grounds that the woman was of a most
jealous nature, that she treated Collins
in a cruel manner and that ehe did not
take proper care of their 4-year-old
child. The ''royal" pair escaped prose
cution at St. Louis only because the
drummer wouldn't wait to prosecute
the case, as stated In Friday's dis

FEES MAY BE FORFEITED
Justices. Vnder Law, Cannot Keep
Receipts From Marriages.
Attention has been called of the
County Commissioners and County
Auditor to the fact that under the
statutes all justices of the peace must
turn in money received In marriage
fees. In the event it is decided to force
payment of such fees received in the
past and not turned in, a sum aggre
gating several hundred dollars would
be secured, Mr. Brandes believes.
Money could be collected for a period
extending back as far as the statute
of limitations would permit, some six
years. Justices of the Peace Bell and
Olson would have to produce substan
tial sums, as would ex-Justices Reid
and Seton and District Attorney Cam
eron, for the period he was Municipal
Judge. The sum it is possible to collect
In fees for each marriage is $5 and in
many instances the magistrates have
done tne work for much less.

CAREER MAY BE BLIGHTED
C. M. Idlenian Declares That Iad
Who Killed George DeMars Had
Bright Prospects! and
Good Reputation.
Application for the arrest of Judg
ment and motion for a newr trial have
been filed with the State Circuit Court
in behalf of Jackson Reid. the 12-year-old
boy who was convicted by a jury,
Thursday, of being delinquent because
of shooting George De Mars at the Ex
position grounds last August.
Every effort is to be made to save the
lad from confinement in the State Re
form School, the penalty that applies to
his case if the jury's verdict is allowed
to stand. . It is being contended that
such action will blight what promises
to be a bright future for the boy, as
arrangements had been made to send
him to his grandmother, Mrs. C. A.
Reed, at Chattanooga, Tenn.. where his
education was to be provided for. It
had been planned to send him to college
when he had finished high school at
Chattanooga.
Says Verdict Was Unjust.
The motion for a new trial and for
arrest of Judgment will be heard be
fore Circuit Judge Gantenbein on Wed
nesday. C. M. Idleman. attorney Tor the
boy, says that the verdict cannot stand,
as W was clearly outside the evidence.
And in addition, the boy was never; in
dicted by grand jury, whereas the new
amendment to the state constitution
provides that indictment by grand jury
is necessary.
"The Jurors, In returning their ver
dict, did so in order that the boy might
be held under the jurisdiction of the
Juvenile Court." said Mr. Idleman, in
discussing the case yesterday. "I have
talked with two of them and they told
me that they did not think the boy a
bad boy. but felt he was surrounded by
bad influences on Government Island at
the Exposition grounds, where he lives
with his mother and stepfather. The
verdict these jurors handed . down says
'guilty as charged." and that practically
brands the boy as a murderer. He is
charged in the Iiistrlct Attorney's in
formation with being a delinquent be
cause of having shot and killed George
De Mars, the crime being designated as
murder in the first degree."
DeMars ltunning Toward Boy.
The testimony In the case clearly
showed that Ie Mars was running to
ward the boy when the fatal shot was
fired. And while the boy should not
have been allowed to handle a gun, so
It is admitted by all parties concerned,
yet he was trying to defend himself and
did not have vicious intentions.
A number of letters have been re
ceived by Mr. Idleman showing the
good reputation which the Reid boy
had at Chattanooga. Letters from
United States senators H. Clay Evans
and J. B. Frazler. County Judge Seth
M. Walker. Rev. J. W. Bachman. Major
C. R. Evans and other prominent Chat
tanooga people speak of the boy in the
highest terms. The Relds came here
from that place three years ago. As in
Portland. Jackson Reid attended Sun
day school there and was studious and
well-behaved at school. His father
died five days after arriving in Port
land and the mother remarried. The
boy's grandmother, on his mother's side,
Mrs. C. A. Reed. Is spoken of in the
communications referred to as a lead
ing woman of Chattanooga. She has
written here stating her' willingness to
take charge of the boy.
Acquitted of Assault Charge.
J. A. Hogan, a man of 55 residing at
Sellwood, was acquitted of a charge of
assaulting 5-year-old Irene Richardson,
when the case was heard before- a Cir
cuit Court jury, yesterday afternoon.
The child identified him as her assailant
but Hogan set up an alibi, proving by
three men that he was carousing in a
saloon at the time the assault occurred.

THE PORTLAND PUBLIC MARKET
The breaking of ground for this building marks the beginning of a new era
for the people of Portland in the matter of the purchase of household supplies.
It likewise means greater opportunities for dealers in the various lines.
The experience of other cities shows conclusively that such institutions
have become almost public necessities, and that where properly conducted are
uniformly successful enterprises. ....
. In the neighboring city of Seattle a Public Market was opened less than
one year ago, and one has only to see how it. is now continually crowded
. with patrons, and to learn that stall space is already at a premium, to be
convinced that such an institution is not only needed in Portland, but that
it will be an unqualified success.
The Seattle Market occupies a remodeled and incommodious building,
which, moreover, is located in a place not easily accessible from all points,
while the new Portland Market will be in a modern, commodious, fireproof
building erected, for the special purpose and after the most approved plans,
and will be located where it can be easily reached from everywhere. It
will cover the block bounded by Fifth, Sixth, Glisan and Hoyt streets.
The basement will contain 800,000 cubic feet of space and will be devoted to
cold storage.
The first floor will comprise 208 stalls, all to be occupied by dealers in pro
visions. The second story Arcade, which will be reached by moving stairways, will
be arranged for the handling of all kinds of household supplies, other than eat
ables proper, and this feature will further appeal to all housewives and to deal
ers in all additional lines as well.
Detailed information may be had at the offices of the company and reserva
tions of space may now be made. Although a large number of stalls have been,
taken, many good" locations may yet be had if applied for at once.
