President Sproule says frank ly that the Southern Pacific can not get the money, and it can not get the money, be says, because investors in railroad stocks have been made timid by hostility. Mr. Sproule's statement was made in a letter to the new Portland Cham ber of Commerce which appealed to the Southern Pacific a few weeks ago to build the cutoff. The appeal was prompted by an urgent request from Klaamth Falls business men, who represented that they desired to deal with Portland but could not do so with existing railway service. He concludes his letter with: "With respect to the whole subject, I am very sorry, and it Is a source of regret to the directors and officers of this company that we have been unable to complete the project the Klamath people have at heart, but we do not control the conditions; they control us. We have money already Invested in the line in question and naturally would desire to complete the project if we could, so as to ac complish the purposes of the Invest ment already made." DEPOT DOIXGS. Saturday was pay day and the freight office w,as the busiest place In the city about 4:30. C. T. Weedon is laying off on ac count of illness and Is spending a few days at the home of his parents in Ashland. Weedon is a fireman on the Weed branch. Many applications for layoffs have been received during the past few days at the local offices. Many of the railroaders are ardent huntsmen and nearly all "know where they can get one the first morning out." Ow ing to heavy traffic, but few layoffs were granted. Ralph Peters, president of the Long Island railroad, and daughter, accompanied by A. K. Van Derventer, theasurer of the Southern Pacific Company, and Mrs. Van Derventer, passed through Saturday morning on thev former's private car attached to train 53. Engineer E. A. Hunter of this terminal has received ten merits in the Southern Pacific service, for hav ing discovered and removed lagging hanging from roof of tunnel 14 in the vicinity of Siskiyou. Hi Frazer, water service foreman, has also been complimented for voluntary service rendered in an emergency. Small shops for repairs to the loco motives and cars of the Willamette Pacific trains between Eugene and Marshfield will be erected at the lat ter place upon the completion of the new line, according to announcement of T. W. Younger, superintendent of motive power of the Southern Pacific Company, who accompanied D. W. Campbell, assistant general manager of the company, to Coos Bay a few days ago. The new Coast railroad, the "line that Grants Pass built," has hauled Its first carload of ore. When the train came in from Wllderville re cently it brought a Southern Pacific car that had been set in on the new line for loading, carrying a fraction over 31 tons of ore from the Waldo mine, shipped by the Waldo Xtopper Company. It was the initial ship. ment over the new road, but it will be followed closely by many more cars of ore from the same and other mines In the Illinois valley. Dunsmulr News: In a decision of the Sacramento land office rendered by Register Henry P. Andrews and Receiver Samuel Butler, Jack Camp bell of this city, and one of the oldest engineers on tlje Shasta division, is Greatest Wheat Crop In History According to the crop reports pub lished by the United States bureau of crop estimates In co-operation with the weather bureau and depart ment of agriculture, 3,000,000,000 bushels of corn, 1,500,000,000 bush els of oats and 1,000,000,000 bushels of wheat are In prospect for this year's Amerlcrn harvest. Record crops of rye, white and sweet potatoes, tobacco, rice and hay also are predicted for the prosperous farmers, who have planted 310,546, 000 acres or 10,000,000 acres more than last year, to their principal products. The wheat crop, the greatest ever grown in any country, will be worth more than $1,000,000,000, while the corn crop's value may reach $2,500, 000,000. Estimates of the principal crops, announced by the department of ag riculture, basod on conditions of Aug ust 1, show that all crops will be greater than last year. Interest centered on wheat and corn. Both showed improvement over July conditions, though excess ive rains and cold weather In the central states interfered with thresh ing. Oats also suffered in these states, but In other sections the Im provement more than offsets this. White potatoes promise to exceed their former record production by 103,000,000 bushels and sweet pota toes by 4,006,000 buchelB. Other Increases over record crops Indicated include tobacco, 28,000,- 000 pounds; flax, 4,200,000 bushels; hay, 2,400,000 tons; rye, 1,300,000 bushels. The estimates give for Oregon an increased production of 316,000 bushels of wheat and 540,000 bush els of barley over that of 1914, the condition of tho barley crop 'being reported as somewhat above the ten years average. Washington esti mates for winter wheat show an In crease of 5,800,000 bushels over 1914 production and an Increase of 2,400,000 In spring wheat. Wash ington's barley crop is reported in excellent condition, but the yield will be somewhat slighter than in 1914. Idaho's winter wheat yield Is estimated at 1,078,000 bushels more than In 1914, while the barley crop estimate is for a yield of 870,000 more busheto than last year. Interurban Autocar Co.

A few days ago a local firm shipped a solid carload of loganberry Juice to New York city. One year ago the loganberry juice was prac tically unknown in the east. Now, thanks to the advertising given It by William Jennings Bryan and the pub licity through loganberry day at the Oregon building, the larger dally pa pers In the east are freely discussing it. The New York Tribune gives con siderable space to Bryan's taste for the juice, and the New York Evening Telegram singe Its praises. And all this has happened within one year. This sudden change in the fortunes of the loganberry should be taken Into consideration by the growers who have become discouraged. Numbers of Ashland ranchers who made a successful project of the rais ing of the berries but who were un able to find a market which would net returns even approaching a mar gin of profit, became discouraged and dug up their vines. Many vines will be planted during the coming year, tho soil and climate beins Ideal for the loganberry In the valley. DR. JOHN F.

The date of effectiveness of the new rate on canned goods and canned salmon recently inaugurated by the railroads with the permission of the interstate commerce commission is August 16. This new rate is 62 cents on canned goods with a 60,000- nound minimum, and 60 cents on canned Balmon with a 70,000-pound minimum. The old rate was 85 cents on both commodities with a 40,000 minimum. These new rates will be particularly beneficial to big canner ies which ship to points east of Chi cago big consignments of canned fruit, vegetables and salmon. Chicago, August. The board of arbitration which last spring decided the wage demands of the firemen and engineers of western railroads has been asked to reconvene to decide disputed points In Its award. Some time ago the heads of the Brother hood of Enginemen issued a pam phlet giving their Interpretation of the application of the award to the wage schedules of individual rail roads. , One hundred and forty-six points were Interpreted from the viewpoint of the Brotherhoods. These Interpretations were reviewed by the committee of general manag ers, who are said to have disagreed with the Brotherhoods on nearly every point. Portland, August 13. The South ern Pacific Company is claiming the water frontage on the coast line in Lincoln county, Oregon, from Otter rock to the southern boundary of the county, a distance in a bee line of thirty miles. Within the district claimed is popular Newport Beach. The frontage is claimed under a grant made by the state legislature In 1874. Knowledge of the claim made by the railroad came to light when a rail road presented to the assessor of Lincoln county plats of Newport Beach for assessment purposes. The matter is now in the hands of Attor ney General Brown for decision. The court will probably be caled to adjudi cate the question.
