NEW YORK. Dec. SO. The last day
of the year on the Stock Exchange
brought a brisk business at rising
price. Speculative opinion eemed to
be more cheerful.
Croat Northern ore certificates and
Interborough - Metropolitan preferred
were anions the most prominent. The
ore certificates rose 4H points and the
traction share Virginia Iron
jumped 8 point to 85. a rise of IS
points In the lost two days. Buying;
of thi stock was accompanied by the
report that the company had aold coal
lands to one of the Southern road for
an amount euf fit-lent to cancel the out
standing bonda
In tne list of railroad stocks. Can
adian Pacific. Northwestern. Delaware
at Hudson, Baltimore at Ohio and Denver
at Klo Grande preferred rose a point or
more, tleveland. C. C. & St. Louis lost
three point.
The report of the Impending receiver
ship -for Allts-Chalmer had no effect
on the market, aside from the securi
ties of the company Itself, as Its finan
cial condition waa well known. The
stocks and bond have been selling; at
receivership price for some time. The
& per cent bond dropped 2U and the
preferred stock a point.
Despite reports of a brisk holiday
trade and better conditions In many
lint of business, the fortnightly re
port on Idle freight cars showed that
the surplus had virtually doubled In
number within the last period. The In
crease extend over every section of
the country.
Another of the large Western road
reported a decrease In earnings for No
vember. Northern Pacific gross re
turn fell off SUS.OOO. but a reduction
In expense virtually balanced this de
cline, leaving the net earning little
changed. Heading and Erie made
gams.
The bond market wa firm and act
ive. Total ales. par value, $2,450,000.

MAY WHEAT CLOSES HIGHER
Showery AVtratlitTT in Argentina Gives
tho Market a Lift at the Open
ing Traders Squealed in
the Corn Pit.
CHICAGO. Dec 30. Big changes In
price today, out of all proportion to
the small amount of business involved,
marked the end of tho December de
livery of wheat and corn. The wind-up
of trade in that option resulted tn
sending; the flrst-named cereal down
for what remained of that month and
hoistine the other grain, the extreme
difference from last night being respec
tively a decline of 2c and a rise of
3a. Otherwise fluctuations were of
a modest sort. For the list taken a a
whole, the finish left wheat lie up. to
H4o oft. corn up a shade to Sc. oats.
He lower to He higher; hog products
slanting from unaltered figures to a
gain of Sc.
Showery weather in the Argentine
helped give the wheat market today
something of a lift- The severe cold
In districts northwest of Chicago, un
favorable for a free movement of the
crop In that region, tended also to
enhance values. Opening prices here
were Uc oft to Ho up. When Decem
ber shorts on wheat had evened up,
that option suddenly dropped 2o under
last night.
May wheat ranged from SSC to
9Sc, closing steady lHo net higher
at !'9c even.
Corn ruled stronger on account or
wet weather and of covering by be
lated December short. The final
squeeze for traders, who were forced
to settle deals in the current delivery,
forced the price up to the highest mark
of the season, 68Hc, as against 64Ho
last night. May fluctuated from 63o
to 3-c. closing steady, a shade net
higher, at 6.1c and 47ttc, with last
sales 47Vic, exactly the same as
last night.
Scantiness of offerings had a greater
effect on provisions than did the
liberal hog receipts. In the end pork
was unchanged to 60 up with other
products also firm but showing a
trifle less advance.

MAUS QUOTEDON CANTEEN
vVrlter Gets Opposing Data From
Army Snrgeon.
ABERDEEN. Wash., Dec. 28. (To the
Editor.) The writer has always en
Joyed reading The Oregonlan, especial
ly the editorial page, and has looked
upon it and the Boston Transcript as
two of the greatest and best daily pa
pers In our country. The editorials
enow knowledge, conservatism and a
breadth of view that give pleasure to
note in these days of commercialism,
when manv editorials are not the hon

but a paio-ior proauciioii ana wruwu
at behest of some special interest.
ha editorial opinions In The Ore
gonlan have not always coincided with
tiiosa of the writer, but I believe they
I have seldom claimed that opposite
opinions were not intelligent, it was
with regret, therefore, that I found in
the editorial. "Restore the Canteen," In
the lesue of December 19, such asser
tion, because the writer believes there
is intelligent opposition to the re-establishment
of the Army canteen.
Careful reading of an article about
tire canteen by otjionei L. M. Mans,
chief surgeon and chief medical In
spector of the Central Division of Uni
ted States Army, published in the Con
tinent of December 17, 1911, a journal
that is both conservative and accurate,
la worth while..
To quote from your editorial:
The Immediate consequence of closing the
canteen haa been a terrible increase of
drunkenness, and would that this were Its
n-oret effect, but It Is not. Ths dens to

driven are ' of course haunted by women
whose character cannot be described. As
sociation with them has raised the propor
tion of loatl.some diseases among the troops
from a little more than 8 per cent to about
20 per cent. This frightful Increase has
taken pleace since the canteen wan closed
and In direct consequence of that foolish
and wicked act.
In contrast -with the foregoing,
Colonel Maui states:
Without any knowledge of the real facts
the advocates of the restoration of beer to
canteen tell us that since Its abolishment the
health of the Army has been appalling.
It will be noticed that the sickness
from alcoholism decreased from 1901 to
1910 (the pertod during which the sale
of Intoxicants ha been abolished). The
venerial rate shows an Increase, but as
Colonel Mans explains prior to this
date, or before 1900, only voluntary
cases were reported, whereas since
that date a rigid examination of all
the men is made weekly or twice
monthly. Knowing how men are reti
cent in reporting this disease and
knowing the various stages up to the
point where their condition compels
them to admit it and report, the Colonel
well says the voluntary cases as re
ported prior to 1900 would be less since
that date than before.
True there has been en increase in
ratio of sick admissions from 40 per
1000 in 1885-1898 to 48 per 1000 In 1901.
1910 (1S9S to 1901 omitted on account
of abnormal war condition). It should
be considered, however, in noting this
Increase that from 1885 to 1898 the
Army was stationed at home in excel
lent quarters, whereas from 1901 to
1910 they were in Porto Rico, the Phil
ippines, etc., and exposed to all manner
of tropical diseases.

RESERVATION NOT OPEN
Tribal Delegates Deny Klamath
Lands Are for Sale.
BONANZA. Or., Dec. 19. (To the Edi
tor.) An article has appeared in a
number of newspapers quoting Super
intendent Watson as saying that the
Klamath Indian Reservation is now
virtually open; that there are thous
ands of acres of fine agricultural land
that can be sold at public auction upon
application:
Now the facts are that this Reserva
tion is not now open, and it will not be
opened until matters that are before
the Department are settled. TheBooth
Kelly Company has through some
scheme obtained a large va;uable piece
of land, and the Government has also
through their agents deprived us of
large sums of money. This must be ad.
justed before we can proceed to any
final settlement of these and other
matters.
The allotment of cattle as per
agreement about two years ago, has
never been fulfilled nor satisfactorily
consummated. The cash allotments have
not been made as per agreement and we
cannot understand why they are not so
made. The tribal money due us from
deceased Indians is also a mystery, can.
not be located and while we are sure
the same Is safe we would at least
like to know just who is getting the
interest on it.
Our understanding is that Agent
Watson is only a hired man on a stated
salary, and not the Indian Department
Itself.
When these matters are all settled
legally and through the courts, as that
Is the only manner in which we desire
to adjust these matters, then, and not
until then, will the tribe be ready to
have the reservation opened up.
There are also about 29 of the Modoc
Indians that have been allotted lands
In the Indian Territory, and become
citizens of the United States, that the
Government has allowed (against our
wishes) to come here and share our
allotments and money. The white man
has Just as good right to these privi
leges as these Modocs, and we want an
understanding as to what right the
Government ha after taking away the
tribal authority of them to "reim
merse" them again and give them our
money and land.
The conditions of the treaty with the
Government and the Klamath Indians
have been violated and we feel that we
have not been dealt with according to
the laws and the provisions of said
