7 RUSSIA ARRESTS ENEMIES IN PERSIA TURKISH WAR MINISTER WHO IS SAID TO HAVE LED HIS COUN TRY INTO WAR. Turkish and Austrian Agents Made Prisoners and Amer ican Protests. THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLiAXD, NOVEMBER 8, 1914. RELIGIOUS WAR INCITED Xorthern Fart of Country Flooded With Placards Galling on Breth ren of Faith to Join In . Fight Against Russia. LONDON, Nov. .7. The Amsterdam Correspondent of Reuter's Telegram Company reports that a message re ceived there from Vienna says the Austro-Hungarian Consul-General and the Turkish diplomatic representative at Tabriz, Persia, have been taken prisoners by the Russians and trans ported to Tiflls. American Minister Protests. The Persian Government and the American Minister at Teheran, John I Caldwell, have protested to Russia, ac cording- to the correspondent, against this alleged infraction of International law. WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. If the report from Vienna that the American Minis ter at Teheran has protested, to Russia against the alleged arrest of repre sentatives of Austria-Hungary and Turkey at Tabriz, Persia, is correct. Ur. Caldwell undoubtedly acted In his capacity as the temporary custodian of the affairs of those countries in Persia, Jt Is highly Improbable that he made any move in the name of the Amer ican Government. Situation Easily Understood. It is not clear that the American minister has been entrusted with any responsibility by the belligerents in' Persia, but it Is conceivable that a situation has arisen to make this pos sible. PETROGRAD, Nov. 7. The entire northern part of Persia Is being flooded with placards, printed on Turkish presses, urging the Persians to unite with the Turks in the present warfare againBt Russia, according to dispatches reaching Petrograd from Teheran, the capital of Persia. These placards refer to the Persians as "brethren in the faith," and make use of the term "the holy war on Russia." The Persian government, however, is strongly opposed to any action at the present time on the part of Persia, whose object Is to safeguard Persian territory against permanent occupa tion by Turkish or Russian troops. This view is shared In parliamentary circles. N & ? f w - k W V t? 0 - - 1T5L yr-W tficfrMr.r Photo copyright Underwood & Underwood. E.VVOn PACHA.

Paul Wmlnger Eays Plants Good for Nothing Else but Declares Law i Will Be Adhered to. So far as Portland brewing plants aro concerned, there is no present in tentlon of dismantling them and mov ing them to California after January 1, 1916, as Seattle brewers propose to do when the newly-enacted prohibition jaw goes into effect. One local brewer points out that Call fornia already is well supplied with breweries and the business there will not be sufficient, even after all the peo ple in Oregon and Washington who can not get along without their liquor flock to that state, to permit the added com petition of all the plants that are driven cut of business here. Inasmuch as the new law does not sro Into effect for 14 months in either state there is no immediate cause for action of any kind, the brewers point cut They will continue their business until the prohibition law forces then to quit. But the plan suggested in some quar ters that the breweries be turned Into Ice-making plants or into packing plants is only scoffed at by the brew crs. "A brewery is built for only one pur pose." said Paul Wesslnger, manager of the Henry Weinhard brewery, yester day, "and that purpose is to make beer, Jt is easy for people who never saw the inside of a brewery to suggest what can be done, but we know that the plants are good for nothing else than the purpose for which they were in tended not unless we want to go to considerable expense In rearranging them. "But there is one tiling of which am certain. The brewers intend strict ly to comply with the law. We expect to continue in business until the lat ter part of next year. Then we'll close clown and quit as the people have de . Inanded. "The people have declared that they don't want liquor to be sold or manu factured In the state and for my part 1 am willing to give them what they want. There is no Intention on the part of any brewer that I know of to violate or to evade the law." Local brewers also ridicule the Idea suggested in Arizona that the brew cries be used In manufacturing "near beer" as a substitute for real beer. This so-called "hear beer" is made from the extract of hops and malt the same as the familiar beer sold in the saloons, but lacks the percentage of alcohol to place it in the class of liquors pro hibited tinder provisions of the new law. In some other "dry" states the "near beer" manufacturers have done a flour ishing business, but almost invariably their product was hard to detect from the real thing. It is pointed out that wherever near beer has been sold there was a clear attempt to evade the law with no attending effort on the part of the authorities to enforce it. Estimate Is That 25 Per Cent of Wheat Is Held by Producers and Sellinc Price Is $1.23. SPOKANE, ,Wash, Nov. 7. (Special.) Every farmer in the Spokane country is receiving on an average of $1600 for this year's cereal crop alone. The grain yield has been fully up to the average and the extraordinary prices realized for wheat has brought in at least $6,000,000 more than could be expected in normal years. This added profit alone Is nearly $300 for every farm in the territory. with i wheat now current over practically, all of the Spokane territory, many farmers who have paid up their obligations are holding for 1.25, In the Judgment of such capable grain men as R- J. Lord, of the Cen tennial Mills; Richard J. Stephens, of Stephens, Smith & Co.; Sherman C Draper, representing M. H. Houser, and William N. Pattulo. agent for Balfour, Guthrie & Co., 75 per cent of the wheat mains in the hands of the farmers. After allowing for the grain handled in July and' August on early contracts they agree that this year's crop will bring on an average 20 cents a bushel more than the crop of 1913. R. D. Jarboe, State Grain Inspector, reports on the grain received in public warehouses at every shipping point in the grain belt for the year ended June 30, 1914. The figures show a total of 33,620,512 bushels of wheat received in warehouses, 4,149,571 bushels of oats and 4,475,440 bushels of barley. Without speculating on further prof its that may be made on wheat remain ing unsold and figuring that, the farm ers average 90 cents a bushel for sur plus of 35,000,000 bushels to be mar keted this year their cash income from that source will be (31,500,000.

Singularly calm in the face of his sentence to be hanged December 20 Lloyd Wilkins, convicted murderer of Lou Winters, remained wholly unmoved at the County J all throughout the count of ballots on the amendment abolishing capital punishment as the penalty for murder in the first de gree. yesterday he expressed uncon cern at the ultimate result of the bal lotlng last Tuesday. "I expect to go to Salem," he said, "but how it Is coming out I don't anow and don t care. It is a matter of i difference to me." Wilkins was to have been taken last Thursday to state prison,- where he is under sentence to be hanged next month, but he was kept in the County Jail, the law prescribing that he may be taken to the penitentiary at any time within 20 days following his sn tence. He can still remain in the local jail 10 days before being taken to the capital and there is considerable doubt in the minds of the authorities that he will ever be taken. Judge Morrow, who sentenced Wil kins, said at the time that if the amendment passed, Wilkins, with John A. Pender, and all other convicted mur derers in this state, will go scot free because the amendment is said to be loosely drawn and does not provide any penalty whatever for a man convicted in this state of murder in the first de gree. District Attorney Evans declines to discuss the perplexing situation until the subject is brought to his attention officially, but it is understood he holds the same opinion, with many attorneys of the city. "If I am set free eventually, it's South America for mine," said Wilkins, who is a locomotive engineer, and who thinks there Is an opportunity for American mechanics to make good south. "I want to get so far away that my past will not be thrown up to me, he said. "Everybody knows what hap pens to men Who have been In prison when they get out and try to make new start." Wilkins has become of a religious turn of mind since his incarceration and has derived great consolation from his constant study of the Scriptures. This is supposed to account for his attitude of utter indifference. John A. Pender was taken to Salem last week to await execution of the death sentence November 27. cial form of keen enjoyment, Especially appreciated by the ultra-elect.

An aged man, whose name was given to investi gating officials as John R. Gray, and who was described as a retired capital ist of Vancouver, B. C, died on a South ern Pacific train entering Oakland to night. Heart trouble was assigned as the cause. Two daughters of the stricken man. Misses M. R. and I- W. Gray, were trav eling with him. They said their desti nation was Los Angeles, whither they were going for their father's health. Superficial examination of the body showed that hardening of the arteries had been a contributing cause of death. One of the Misses Gray told the po lice that her father's business partner had committed suicide several months ago and that her father's resulting de spondency had caused a serious break down of his health.

Every day brings news of fresh fires. Massachusetts has suffered severely. The Governor recently closed the liunt- woods, since careless campers are a prolific source of fire. The latest outbreaks have been in New Jersey, where hundreds of thou sands of dollars' worth of property has been destroyed. There is a marked difference between the fire situation in the East and in the West, which the present fires illus trate in the West the worst fire sea son is in Summer and ends with Fall rains. In the East there are two bad seasons, in Spring and Fall. Unprecedented conditions of dry weather have made fires numerous this year in the West.
