Cheap Butter Quits KenUful.
The cheaper grades of butter con-
ttnua too Plentiful for the "demand and
the result Is that most sales of first

Increasing and even city creameries re

supplies of cold storage butter were
never so great In the east nor on the

a Sharp loss.
New York. Jan. 7. The public state
ment of Claus A. Ppreckels, son of the
former Pacific Coast sugar refiner.
that the American Sugar Refining com
pany was rotten to the core, had a de
pressing effect upon values in that se
curity today. Several points, were lost
by .the Issue during the early trading
on the stock exchange today. The meet
ing of the Refinery oomnahy at Jersey
City scheduled for tomorrow morning
is attracting considerable attention on
account oz tne remarKS or air. sprecx
els that the Company included in its
resources a lot of worthless junk, such
as dismantled refineries.
The slump in sugar caused irregular
prices to rule today in the rest of the
ist out tne closing today was general
ly a fraction under the price of yester
day. The opening of the market was

"Portland Union Stockyards, Jan.. 7.
The improvement in the tone or tne
livestock market has carried the prices
higher in two lines and the remaining
line is firmer though at prssent un
changed in value; There Is a greater
demand for noirs man arrivals, pui mui
far .packers have been unwilling to pay
mork than 85.25 for the best stuff, out
that Is the low point also. . ' "
There were no receipts in the sheep
market and prices in "that line were
marked . up - about 85o all the way
through.- This put the value of mixed
lots at 34.25W4.60; wsthers and lambs,
84.76 05.00, and straight ewes at the
ssme flgurs as mixed lots . ' .
Cattle receipts for the 24 hours had
a total of but 100 head and this wss
Insufficient . to , fill the wants of the
traria. Prices are therefore about 16c
higher, with the market very firm.
- r"fhe market would stand better ar
rivals than are being, shown at this
time," says Assistant manager uouiu.
All lines ars snowinga gaoa ions
the prices quoted by The journal to
day. A year ago today ths strength was
continued in i hogs and cattle and in
both lines the price was moved up 16o
from the low point. "Sheep were dull,
with no arrivals for that Aday. Un
changed values ruled In that line.

Negro Who ;XIUed Bnlil
Laughs at Puerile Efforts
of Police Latter Gave
r Him Seven Days in Which
to Get Away s
The murderer of L. C Ruhl Is stlQ
at large and up to noon today the po
lice had no clue as to his whereabouts.
Ths case Is one that illustrates ths
methods now- In vogue In the depart
ment Ruhl, who was the white pro
prietor of a negro lodging-house at 122
North Seventh street, was beaten over
the head by one of his lodgers oa the
evening of December 30 and left for
deadi In a room where the murderous
assault occurred.
Some of the people In the building
found the unoonsclous man, sent him to
the hospital and Informed the police of
what had occurred. Patrolman L.
Hirsch was sent to ths house to make
an investigation and made the follow
ing report:
"About 8:80 p. m. a colored man by
ths name of overman came to Mr.
Ruhl's room, 123 North Seventh street,
and beat him over the head with a gun.
He rooms there In room No. 6. He Is
a small man with a mustache."
With this report the police Investiga
tion of the caae came to an end, and
was only resumed when tha authorities
at Good Samaritan ' hospital reported
yesterday morning that Ruhl had died
as ths result of his Injuries.
The negro who committed the ss
sault that cost Ruh! his life is Claude
Everman. He was known in the negro
colony as a tough character who was
given a wide berth by those who were
anxious to keep out of trouble. He waa
Known to many in and about toe lodging-house
kept bv Ruhl. and had a
vigorous search been made for htm on
the night he attacked Ruhl It is almost
certain he could have been found and
arrested.
It Is now evident that he has left ths
city, as he hss not returned to hit
room for his clothes snd has not been
seen about his usual haunts since the
night of the assault. As he has had a
start of seven days, the time has been
ample for him to put a considerable
distance between himself and the place
wnora no in noir wajueu to answer to S
murder charge. . ,
