It will bring Into the state, based upon the probable price, no less than li.50e.0tm. Thla sum will be all the more welcome as It will come from the East and arroad. The Callfornlars will not profit so much by the rise In the market, for of their growing crop of 7S.000 bales, they have already sold to deslere over J5.00 ba lea. Washington will rave about li.000 bales of bops this year and. Ilka Ore gon, will put most of ttem on the ad vanced market. The statistic that have been pre pared of the world's crop this year show an output In sight at the present time of 1.110.000 hundredweight.

RAZED ASH HEAT MARKS slTK OF WASHINGTON" STATEHOl'SE. Heated Conflicts for Inlted State Senatorshlpa 8 1 aged In Once) Famous Building. OLTMPIA. July JT. tSpeclal.) Just a heap of ashes, and an old water pipe wrapped In an ancient carpet mark the spot where stood the first legislative hall of the State of Washington. The timber has been hauled away and the historic boards are now being used to build rhlckena coop, patch up barns and sheds and perhaps to serve as fences for pig pen on ranches south of the city. When the last legislature appropri ated iliO.OM for the erection of a new Temple of Justice and determined that the rapltol of Washington la to remain In Otympla for all time to come, the Capitol Commission ordered the grounds clesred. Th Board of Control at first tried to sell the old building and one man bid I12S. but ha misun derstood and said ha wanted that amount for removing It. Hie bid waa rejecte'3. but some contractora south of the city said they would tear the building down for th old lumber that was In It. and when they offered to post a bond to Insure good work th Board accepted th opportunity to get rid of the building. There waa little of historic value In th old structure and few memories cling around It. save those connected with a few hot fights for Cnlted States Senatorshlps and the building and wrecking of not a few political ma chines. Th old terrltorlsl legisla tive hsll was torn down som years ago and part of tha lumber waa saved to maks model buildings out of It. on of these being the present statehouse and the. other decorating the state his torical society home In Taeoma. The passing of th old state capltol was hsrdly noticed although It waa landmark for year a. standing as It did on a knoll on th new sit resembling an old frame store building that by the addition of a flag staff had attained great prominence.

Tha party will leave Monday morning on tba Shasta Lim ited. No ceremony marked tha final action on th part of th Governor In Issuing the state warrant that returns to Ore gon for trial a personal friend and an appointee of th Johnson administra tion. Attorney-General Webb today dented that there had been received "thou sands of letters from Oregon" demand ing th return of Wild upon threat that if he were not returned for trial the support of Oregon to the Panama Exposition would be withheld. MEXICANS NEED EDUCATION rrona Hard to Tcrsuad- Property Should Not lie Divided. WASHINGTON. July . The verbal reports that the Ambassador to Mexico. Henry Lane Wilson, has made to the President and to Secretary Knox re garding conditions In Mexico ar on the whole said to be encouraging. It has been somewhat difficult for the provisional government to recon cile the peons to th fact that ther cannot be a wholesale sequestration of private lands and a division among the populace. The crying need of the Mexicans Is a larger measure of public education. Mr. Wilson believe. It I understood to be th policy of F. L Madero.

SPEAKER IS OPTIMISTIC Other Leader Inclined to Believe Trt Will Veto Any Measure Re sulting Front Democratic Insurgent Combine. WASHINGTON. July 19. Democratic leaders of the House adopted anything but a conciliatory tone on the wool tar iff situation today. Chairman Underwood and Represen tatlva Harrison, of tha ways and means committee, and other prominent Demo crats, expressed themselves tonight in unfriendly terms toward a compromise with the Senate that would mean an in crease in the rates of the original Underwood bill. Meantime President Taft Is ac credited by those who talked with him today as being determined to veto the bill wfcen It resches him. Solution Reels With House. The situation in th House Is the key to th entire tariff tangle In Con gress. Upon th action of the-House esrly next week rests the possibility of further tsrlff legislation at this ses sion Speaker Clark expressed confi dence today that a wool bill would be agreed on In conference and that It would be signed by the President. Other House lesders. however, adopted a more pessimistic view of th Presi dent's attitude and expect the President to veto any wool bill framed by the present Democratic-Insurgent Republl csn coalition In the Senate. Another faction, of which Represen tative Harrison, of New Tork. Is tha leader, demands that the raw wool duty (hall not be above SO per cent. The general expectation Is that the La Follett compromise ss It passed the Senate will emerge from conference as a measure based on a JO per cent ad valorem on wool. There was no change In the situa tion In the Senate, the coalition main taining Its strength and the parties to that combination expressing confidence in their ability to put through revision legislation. Two-Third Vote Lacking. In the event the President should veto the final conference wool bill, the Democratic leaders will begin calcula tlona as to whether the bill can be passed by the House over the Presi dent's veto. The Underwood bill passed the House on June SO by a vote of i28 to 100. But to pass over a veto two thirds of tha House membership of 191 must vote for the hill. This would be Il. or 41 mora thn went on record for th original bill In th House. There la nothing so far to warrant counting on th muster of any self - added strength. House Democrats expressed th view tods 7 that If the President Is to veto the wool bill, they would prefer to hsv him veto a Democratic bill, rather than an Insurgent Republican-Democratic compromise measure. It Is clear today that the House will not be In a hurry to ask for a confer ence. The Senate wool bill, when It Is taken up In the House next week, will be promptly rejected and sent back to the Senate. It will remain for that body to ask for a conference committee.

Long-and-Short-Haul Scheme to Apply to All Eastern Points Ad vocated by Spokane Man. SPOKANE. Wash.. July 29. (Special.) Organization of all Western Interior shippers to secure from the next ses sion of Congress sn absolute long-and-short-haul clause, to apply to all East ern interior points, is advocated by At torney H. M. Stephens. Such a clause would give Spokane terminal rates, not only from St. Paul and Missouri River points, but from Chicago, the Mississippi River and points as far East as Cincinnati and Detroit. From the last named two cities Spokane shippers must pay terminal rates, plus 15 per cent, even under the latest decision. It is possible, Mr. Stephens believes, to organize the Interior West from the Canadian to the Mexican line and send a powerful delegation to Wash ington. D. C. to see that Congress enacts a long-and-short-haul clause without exceptions. "While a great victory has been won.' stated Mr. Stephens, "additional ad vantages may. In my Judgment, be se cured by organizing the intermountain country from Canada to Mexico with other interior points for the purpose of having a lobby at the next session of Congress to secure an amendment to the fourth section the long-and-short-haul clause so as to make that section absolute and without proviso or quali fication from Eastern interior points, such as Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati and Detroit. Commissioner Lane's holding in the Nevsda and -Arizona cases Is to the ef fect that there Is no water competition In the Chlcago-St. Louis territory, not withstanding Commissioner Prouty states that they are unable to state that water competition does not have any effect upon rates from Chicago and St. Louis. "I have always insisted that there is no evidence of water competition far ther West than the Buffalo-Pittsburg line, and the Commission has practical ly found that there Is no such competi tion from Chicago and St. Louis, hence I am of the opinion that an absolute long-and-short-haul clause provision from territory where there is no water competition or no water shipments of material consequence would be legal un less the carrier can show that the re duction would result In confiscation of the railroad property.
