17 V EXPECT LOW MARKET Thanksgiving Turkey Trade Viewed by Dealers. as! FIRST SHIPMENTS ARE IN All Indications Tolnt to a Toll Sup ply ami Prk-f Materially Intler Tho-r of lift Year noy rrs Hold Off. The first large shipment of dressed turkeys ser received yesterday. To day's receipts should be heavy and by tomorrow nlsrht there will probably be enough on hand to Indicate clearly which way the market la going There Is still some uncertainty a to the outcome, but the opinion la gaining ground that the market will be a rather easy one. Several Idaho deals were said to be still under considera tion yesterday, but it was not learned If they were dosed. If this additional stock Is brought here. It may break the market. No one was able to .speak definitely f the Valley situation, but the grow er and shippers there are not as firm n their Ideas as a few weeks ago. and It Is not likely they will hold back many turkeys that are ready to ship. A good part of the Southern Oregon crop a as contracted for early by Cali fornia buyers, and consequently will rot be a factor on the local market, Whatever effwt this would have, how ever. Is likely to he offset by the ab sence of Ptiiret Sound buyers here. This Is t.'ie first Thank.-rlvlng In many year fiat Seattle and Taroma dealers have not operated more or 1 exten sively at Portland. Kfforts have been made In the past few days to Interest them, hut without slcees. It Is. of course, impossible at this time to state positively what the Job hnf market will be. All kinds of gutvses are marn b"V the dealers. A fair average of their predictions seems to he about 22H cents. Tr-ere as very little se:llng on the strict yeit-rday. A few good lots were taken "at -i cent, and culls sold as low a cents. I-KOMTH ! A YEAR" MARKETING (, rrim Krrelterf by Mill"" FreltaT"--er I ataa for lie ISII Output.

ATTACK BY BEARS Interstate Commerce Ruling Used Against Markets'" STOCKS ARE DEPRESSED XorUi western Roads Suffer by the PrUe) Canadian Group Uie Strong Feature of the List. Bonds Are Steady. . NKW TORK. Nov. IS. Northwestern railway stocks wera heavy today, and those In tha Canadian group were strong;. A few less prominent Indus trials advanced. The main body of speculative Issues was Inert. The Interstate Commerce Commission order for lower rates on freight clas sifications In the Northwest was the only direct new Influence on the mar ket. It was used with effect by the bears In attacking the stocks of the rallronds concerned, and Northern Pa cific, Great Northern preferred. ft. Paul, and Northwestern were depressed a rolnt or more. In the Canadian group. Canadian Pacific rose Jli. Wisconsin Central 2. and Minneapolis & St. Paul and Srault 8te Marie a point. American Tohacco securities led the advance early In the day. The pre ferred stock rose 114 and on the "curb" the common shot up IS points. Atchison reported earnings which were regarded as dlrappolntlng. Gross returns were virtually unchanged, but operating expenses rose more than 1100.000. This added expense, combined with a rise of about the same amount In taxes, reduced the operating Income by I2S2.U0O. The bunk statement In some ways was a surprise. A loss In rash In the actual statement of 16,300.000 was In line with expectation. In view of the week's export movement of gold. Pre dictions that the comparatively Blender surplus reserve would be reduced to almost the vanishing point, however, wero not borne out. ' Honds were steady. Total sales, par value. 11.130,000.

The Financier will say: The excess of reserve of the New Tork clearing-house banks and trust companies was reduced only $1.4.1(1.350, although the Saturday statement, bssed on actual condi tions, snowed a loss In specie and leral ten der during- th nrevious six days of $0,344. 000. This decrease In cash was occasioned mostly by shipments of specie to Canada and by telexraphlc transfer to San Fran cisco on Japanese and Chinese account. Had It not been that loans were contracted by S13.61O.J0O, which, with a consequent les sening of $16,003,000 In net deposits, re duced the required reserve by $4.2".0,(hio. the surplus at the end of the week would have shown a much heavier contraction. The cleartng-house statement, based on the dally average svstem. Indicated a contraction of $5 Srt:t 000 in loans and a loss of about $S. poo 000 In cash, together with a decrease of $16,725,000 in net deposits. The excess re prve. figured on averages, stands at $19. 543.933. , , The statement of trust companies, made Independently of the clearing-house exhibit, showed a gain of $.370.800 In loans and In vestments, and a corresponding Increase In deposit. ... . The esler monetary conditions abroad have some bearing on the situation here, for It is plain that with the present fall in re serves rates for money ouirht to show a hardening tendency. The heavy American credits In Europe, however, seem to preclude any possibility of a sustained advance In money on this side. RANCHERS MAKE PROTEST Proposed Vmatilla Project Exten sion Is Opposed. PENDLETON. Or.. Nov. 25. (Spe claL) Believing their present and fu ture interests to be In Jeopardy, ranch ers slong- Birch and McKay creeks met at Pilot Rock today to protest against the proposed extension of the Umatilla project. Resolutions were adopted calling upon 'President Taft and Sec retary Fisher to reject tha proposed extension, and at a second meeting to be held Tuesday it may be decided to send a representative to Washington. The proposed extension contemplates the building of a dam across the Uma tilla River at the mouth of Butter Creek and Just below the towns of Echo and Stanneld. This would make a reservoir site out of the famous Uma tilla Meadows wherein the noodwaters of the river would be stored for the reclamation of 40,000 acres of arid lands. The ranchers along Birch and Mc Kay creeks, tributary streams flowing into the Umatilla, the proposed dam site fear the Government will use all of the water which flows In the river and tributary streams both Winter and Bummer, except the 2H-acre feet which the attorneys for the reclamation serv ice are striving to have fixed as the maximum amount which can be taken from those streams for the reclama tion of land actually under Irrigation at the present time. As a substitute to the present plans for the west extension the ranchers would have the Government bring water from the John Day River for the proposed project. TheyvlnsUt this plan Is cheaper and more feasible. CENTENNIAL FOLK SUING Alleged Failure to Keep Agreement of Subscription Is Cause. ASTORIA. Or, Nov. IB. (Special.)

MAY GAINS THREE-EIGHTHS Corn Closes Lower but Steady and Oats Are a Shade Higher Pro- vision Weakness Checked by Short Buying of Lard. CHICAGO. Nov. 25. The uncertain crop o'utlonk In Argentina turned wheat prices today in an upward direction. The strength of other markets was tak en as a sign of substantially altered conditions In' South America. Closing figures showed Vic to c advance over last night. Corn finished lie to down; oats up l-16e, and hog products unchanged to 2c below. The May wheat option, after ranging from $1.00 to Sl.OlVs. closed eteady at J1.00T4, a gain of ic net. May corn fluctuated between 64 Vic and 645c, closing ViSjMic off but steady at 64 Vi 0640. Cash grades were weak; No. 2 yellow was quoted at 7S7SVic for car lots. Top and bottom figures touched by May oats were 49Hc and 49H9c with last sales at 49V449c, a net gain of a shade. Considerable buying of lard on the part of shorts checked weakness in the provision list. Previously there had been fair selling for Western packers and a few strong local speculators.

In a statement addressed to the Republicans of Oregon concerning his candidacy for the United States Senate Judge Stephen A. Lowell today outlined his personal platform, severely criticised the political record of Jonathan Bourna and Invited the latter to meet him on the platform in joint debate. Judge Lowell, among other things, declares for fortification of the Pana ma Canal, Government Bteamshlp lines, if private interests throttle the canal's purposes; dissolution of the trusts, res toration of the competition, modified conservation and tariff revision on the basis of cost of production at home and abroad. He advocates banking reform. Immigration restrictions, legislation favorable to labor and a larger Navy on the Pacific. Judge Lowell questions Senator Bourne's residence In Oregon, asserts that his Interests are with Eastern capitalists, refers to his erratic sup port of policies and candidates and charges that he was one of the chief leaders In the "disgraceful legislative hold-up." Judge Lowell's five reasons why Senator Bourne should not be returned to the Senate follow: First I do not regard him as a bona fide resident of Oregon. In the last campaign reputable speakers asserted that he maintained no home within tha state, and the assertion was never de nied. He visits the state upon rare occasions, coming as a traveler, and stopping at the hotels of Portland. If he has a home in Oregon, where is it, and when was it acquired? If he Is a taxpayer in Oregon, where are the taxes paid, and what is the amount thereof? The irentleman Is classed as oue ui Uie multi-miUlanaJxea of te. country. Whether that be true or not. he assuredly is possessed ot vast, wcaim subject to taxation. Second He is apparently more close ly identified with Massachusetts than with Oregon. He is the head of one of the great cotton manufacturing; con cerns of New England, heavily pro tected by "the .tariff laws, and said to yield Immense revenues. Born an heir of Jonathan Bourne. Sr. In his day one of the leading capitalists of New Bed ford the son has retained his inter ests there, and under such circum stances his economic views can hardly square with those of the people of thfc West. Third I know his record at Salem as a leader In the disgraceful legislative hold-up. The men who engineered that outrage should be barred from public office, because their proceedings then Indicated such a disregard for the law ful conduct of affairs, that no man responsible therefor can safely be re lied upon in official life. If selfish purposes were superior to the Inter ests of the state then, what assurances have the people that selfish interests may not again be paramount, if occas ion arises? Fourth Because his kaleidlscopic po litical changes make it difficult to de termine his real opinions upon public, questions. His erratic career as a pol itician is known, while upon emenus the Senate he allied himself with the Aldrich wing of the party, and voted with that group as late even as the enactment of the present tariff law. x-m i, oiaitn tr ha n nroeressive. but where shall we find his Impress upon the pages of progress, except in his personal literature upon the Oregon system? His history In this state is the opposite, while insurgency in Con gress found small comfort at his hands until others had made the movement popular. He Is an advertiser of re markable cunning:. The editorial ear of the country was caught by his spec taqjilar declaration that he would spend no money upon his campaign for re election, yet what voter in Oregon Is unfamiliar with the postal frank of the Senator? Apparently he espoused the Roosevelt third term Idea as a personal advertisement, tried to pose as the golf crony of Taft for like reason, and Is now exploiting his new plaything, the Progressive League, for the same pur pose. Who. if not Mr. Bourne, is financing that organization? Fifth Because he has not risen to a Just appreciation of Oregon's needs, and has failed to grasp opportunities to secure legitimate National aid in her development notably manifest in the matter of distribution of Irrigation funds. And because he seems not to appreciate the graver questions of state, but is riding a hobby as blind ly as he rode free silver in 1896. I assume that at this late date no other Republican candidate is likely to enter the field, and therefore I extend to Senator Bourne an Invitation to dis cuss with me upon the public platforms of Oregon during any two weeks of the primary campaign, his own public rec ord and the political issues of the hour. He surely can be spared from Wash ington for that period. Respectfully. STAGE HELD UP TWO PASSENGERS AND DIUVEU ROBBED OP CASH AXD WATCH.

Battered by storms and accompanied by calms all the way from the equator, the four masted schooner Edward R. West, this morning arrived at Port Townsend from Newcastle, Australia, with her jigger topmast carried away. A 60 mila gale snapped the mast off like a piece of matchwood. The whole round-trip voyage of the West from this coast to and from the antipodes was streaked with ill luck, for the ves sel rajrrowly escaped destruction In a three-days' storm shortly after leav ing Grays Harbor outward bound.

Sheep Are the Firmest Feature of the Trade Saturday's Re ceipts Small. The week's trading at the stockyards came to an end Friday. Only a small bunch of cattle arrived yesterday and no sales were reported. Business throughout the week was moderately active. Cattle receipts fell oft as compared with the preceding week, and this enabled prices to be fairly well maintained, but no advance was possible. The downward tendency of the hog market was checked by lighter arrivals. Mutton buyers took over all the sheep and lambs offered, and the activity made a firm market. Receipts yesterday were 17 cattle and one horse, shipped in by W. E. Lowell, of Heppner. Trices quoted at the Portland Union Stockyards for th various classes of stock were: Cattle Choice steers $5.40&$5..-0 , 6.00 ft' 5.35 Good to choice steers Choice cows Fair to good cows Extra choice spayed heifers Choice heifers Choice bulls Good to choice bulls Choice calvea Good to choice calves 4.55 'rj! 4 65 4 j'l 5.00 4.60 4.50 4.25 4.75(3 4.50 4.25 4.00 7.75 7.000 7.25 Hots Choice light hogs Good to choice hogs ..........
