THE great rush of people to take advantage ol our extraordinary offers in uncalled for suits and overcoat has been marvelous from the very beginning.
The popularity of these suits has become so great that we have been compelled to open correspondence with over one hundred of the largest Tail
oring concerns throughout the country in order to get these suits fat enough to supply the enormous demand. These are not misfits, but suits
made to order on which deposits have been paid and which for unkown reasons remained uncalled for. Such things happen to every Tailoring establish
establishment. It is by advertising and making a feature of selling these suits that they find it more advantageous to consign them to us than to attempt
to dispose of them from their own establishments.
Uncalled for Garments at Half Price.
$20.00 Suits and Overcoats, $10.00
$25.00 Suits and Overcoats, $12.50
$30.00 Suits and Overcoats, $15.00
$36.00 Suits and Overcoats, $17 50
$40.00 Suits and Overcoats, $20.00
These garments are so !ar superior in
style, fit and finish to ready-made cloth
ing that comparisons are odious. Call
and examine them and see ii we can
fit you. '

We make suits to order from 5.00to$15 cheaper

in Portland. . . .
We are Tailors, Bear That in Mind
Not cheap garment makers, the only thing cheap about our suits is the price.
Our suits have that style fit and finish about them that well-dressed gentle
men appreciate. Astorians are cordially invited to call and inspect our goods

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-The northwest
gale Which has been raging for over 4S
hours, and brought the first snow of the
season to this locality, still continues.
Life-savers at various lake points have
been kept busy watching for and aid
ing vessels In distress.
The following vessels are reported as
being In trouble at various points.
Schooner William H. Dunham, ashore
near St. Joseph, Mich.
Steamer, name unknown, ashore near
'Bolg Blanc Island.
Schooner Kate Lyons, stranded near
Cathead.
Schooner Elgin, puts in at Milwaukee
leuklng badly.
Tha fleet of sheltered vessels In Chi
cago harbor last night were reported
as greatly Increased. Over HO tKiata
have been reported In shelter during the
last two days, which makes an unusu
ally large list.
Tl.e schooner rigged yacht Chlqulta,
with a dead man supposed to be D. S.
Way.the owner and captain, lashed to
the rigging, went ashore In the gale
three miles east of Miller's Station, Ind.
It Is believed that the crew and pas
sengers have perished. Garments found
In the cabin Indicated that at least one
woman was among the unfortunate
party on the yacht. Where the vessel
belonged was not ascertained last night,
but It was thought It was from some
Michigan port.
The dead man lashed to the rigging
was apparently BO years of age. On his
left temple wts a deep cut, caused
probably by, a falling spir. It was be
lieved that his name was D. S. Way,
that signature being found on a number
of papers and effects In the cabin. The
name "D. S. Way" was found also on
the silver ware. In the cabin was found
a complete woman's wardrobe, and the
opinion was the the owner was washed
away.
In the cabin there was a fully equip
ped photographer's outfit and among
other things a large number of pictures.
The supplies had all been bought In
Charlevoix, Mich.
The Chlqulta was first seen by Albert
Sablnske, a fisherman who lives on the
shore a mile from Miller's, as he was
looking for driftwood In the morning.
At that time he saw three of the crew
on deck.

A BIG TRUST
Arc you aware there is a movement now on foot
which proposes to combine all business interests,
and to issue and use combined credits instead of
money, and to make those credits absolutely safe.
If this succeeds, interest on money will be a thing
of the past as far as the commercial world is con
cerned. If you wish to understand the plan,
