THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL'. PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING. OCTOBER It. 108. n 1 Thi The Market Basket 10 OS IS 1TH 12 I Thare's something doing In the BMt situation. Th. butcher bar declared . war against emrh other and the remit a expected to be of much practical ' benefit to the porketbooka of consumers. Price, will be slaughtered each they have never bean slaughtered before. Juat how lone; hoetllttles will continue depend altogether upon the eta of the . butohera poketbook. for the new price will mean practlcallr that all profit will be eliminated. For Inetaace hare" a few articles with old nd new price: Old Price New Price Per Pound. Per Pound. Pot roast ...$0.UH Hun I Bacon Tenderloin steak. . . ft The figure listed above do not quite fairly represent to Juat what extent the butchers' nrorlta w auner ror in stance hams will be old at retail a frac tion under the price which the dealer will pay the packere. Bacon that will coat the dealer It cants a pound In the lull In market will be riven to Own auaier at 17 cents, a net loss to the ellers of 1H cents for every pound of bacon aold. Of course this condition cannot exist for all time but tbe butch em say they sre going to make thing interesting while they lat. The cause of th trouble between the meat men la of long standing and this war la ex pected to wipe out all differences. There I alao some agitation among the butchers to out out sll deliveries of meat that Is free delivery. A small charge will be made If the new proposi tion I generally accepted by the trade. That won't be put into practice at least until the war Is over. Egg ore getting very high. Those who want guaranteed Oregon ranch stack cannot obtain them under II or 40 cents a dozen, the latter price being the mora general. Eastern eggs are In very good condition at this time and are selling In the retail markets at (0 cents a dosea. Owing to the low prloae at which chick ens are selling In the wholesale market .the retail trade ha cut the price 1 cents a pound. Supplies are now very heavy and your dealers will have about everything you aak for. Turkeys are now beginning to come to market but sre not meeting with very heavy de mand aa yet. While but one city creamery has ad vanced Its quotation on heat grade to 75 rents In the retail msrketa. it Is ex pected at this time that the others will be forced to follow after a time be cause they must pay the top price for In the country or els the other fellow will get the supplies. Unless they advance tha price of their finished product they cannot do thls Sweet potatoes sre now of very good quality gad the price Is getting lower. In the ratall markets today they are selling about 1 1-J cents a pound. Potatoes are still rather high on ac count of the inability of the growers to secure sufficient help to dig the stocks. Today the best ones are Quoted In tbe retail markets at IJ.25 a sack. Onions are about the same price. Pumpkin pie "re now In order for Sunday dinner. Some very choice ones are now being shown In the markets around Its cents a pound. Sprouts are still rather high on ac count of the small supplies In tbe mar kef. AH stocks are brought up from California. YOU CAN'T SWEAR IN "TRINITI" New Universal Language Invent ed by Berkeley Professor Has No Words of Anger.

INSPECTOR FLEMING WANTS HIS MONEY A. Fleming, who was the city Inspec tor on the pavement on Russell street, which recently brought out sensational evidence In tne circuit court, has filed with the council a petition for KC.lt, SAYS PRICE OF C0DRW00D WILL BE ADVANCED But There Will Be No Fuel Trust, Declares George A Steel in Interview. Oeorg A. Steel, treasurer and dlree tor of the Portland Fuel company, de nies that there is-any combination to raise the price of cord wood. He says that an advance te certain, hut that it will be due to the exactions of the wood cutters. "Wood is new sold so close to cost aa to leave less than: five per cant profit to the dealers." said Mr. Steel this morning. "In a short time we shall raise tha price of four-foot wood ti cents per cord. W sre forced to do this by the attitude of the wood-cutters down the Columbia river, who have no tified us that hereafter. It per cord will be charged for wood on their docks. We are now paying $2.80 per eord Re member that the price of wood here Is regulated by lower river wood cutters, who furnish tt per cant of the fir wood sold In this city. "It has bean charged that rhe Port land Fuel company. In which I am In terested, hss bought out all but two of the independent wood yards. This is a mistake. There are seven Independent concerns selling cordwood on the other side of the river. I can't see why the public thinks wood Is unreasonably high. Good fir wood nearly always goes to to a cord "iere in winter, and it will do so again this winter." which he alleges la due him as salary during that part of December, 1904. when he was Illegally laid off by W. C Elliott, then city engineer. In the trial Fleming testified that hs had been given to understand that he was taken off the Job because he was too hard on the contractora (Journal Special Service.) Berkeley, CaL, Oct. 11. Profanity Is to be a thing of the past when "Trlnltl," the new universal language which Dr. a A. Frasler of Berkeley has Invented, comes Into Use. Dr. Frasler has de vised a language which contains no words significant of angsr. 1U wlU or other unpleasant emotions. No pro vision Is made by the doctor for the man who desires to express his feel ings In swear words, snd tbe new lan guage accordingly, when adopted, it ex pected to bring the golden day of uni versal peace much nearer. A number of years have bean devoted by Dr. Frasler to perfecting hit saw language. His office at Madison and Oxford streets contalna a great mass of literature and papers bearing on the subject. When the manual of directions for the use of "Trlnltt" Is Issued students are expected to find no difficulty In master ing its curves. Dr. Frasler call hi language Trlnltl" because it Is a com bination of Latin. Greek and the Anglo Saxon letters snd characters. There are to be 14 letters, In "Trlnltl." of which 1 will be English and eight Greek. The combination of sounds to be msde by these letters sre sll melli fluous snd no hsrsh. ill-sounding words sre to be found in "Trlnltl" aa Dr. Frasler haa framed the language. "I believe Trlnltl.' said Dr. Frasler today, "will especially help children, be cause It wlU be much easier to learn than English. It will take the burden from children that la onerous snd my own little ones illustrate how the bur den Is to be removed. I teach them Trlnltl' and tha aaaa with which they grasp its rudiments Is some proof of Its worth." MOUNT PELEE IS IN STATE OF ERUPTION (Journal Special servlee.) Guadeloupe. Oct 11.
