Nsw York, Feb. 17. Whatever de
pression was shown In the stock market
during today's trading was caused by
Union Pnclflo and other Hirrlmin
shares. The market was led down tne
hill by arriman laaues and It failed
to make the slightest fight toward a
price recovery aurlna- the dav's ses
sion. Government charges against the
big financier and counter charges had
a depreaalng effect upon the stock mar
ket even during the early trading. The
market opened with general weakness
and failed to hold Its own at anv tlma
during the trading.
The volume of tradlnar was emails tha
total sales falling under 600,000 shares.
The public was not in the market to
ny extent and this probably ketit the
market from showina- further losses.
Call loans remain at low figures, with
plenty of money being offered.

Chamber of CJommerce Con
sidering: Feasibility of
Starting Plant
A proposal for tha establishment of a
glass manufacturing plant will be taken
up by the manufactures committee of
the Portland ohamber pf commerce, and
there is a strong probability that the
desired result -wlir tie promptly accom
plished. 'lne glass sand has been lo
cated near Coburg, and a practical glass
manufacturer from Norwav la now in
Portland to take charge or tne mecnani
cal work of tha nrooosed Dlant. '
Guatav Matbleaon. who has been a
laaamsker In Norwav and Germany
since he was a boy of 7 years, is en-
thuslaktlc and conlldent or tne ultimate
success of the glass-malting industry In
Oreiron. Ma cama to thla oftv two years
ago from the old country, and began the
search lor glass sand, in a snort time
he located a larce deposit near Coburg,
and built a small furnace for experi
mental purposes. He baa now demon
atrated beyond question the value of the
sand and the adaptability or tne water
and other necessary elements that go
with suocesatul glaas manufacture.
Oregon the Place.
"Oresron Is the place for this indus
try, not only on account of the Quality
of sand found, but for the reason that
the water here Is perfectly suitable for
glass-making.'' he said. "I have had In
ducements to go to Oklahoma to start
a glaas factory. But the water there
Is not satisfactory. I would rather atay
In Oreron. There Is here every neces
sary thing that goes Into the making of
glaaa.
"A small plant could be built at a
coat of $12,000 or $15,000 for the manu
facture of fruit Jars, to start the busi
ness. Later a complete olnnt for win
dow glaas could be built, ooatlng $100,
000 or more. 1 can make glass here and
sell It for the freight charges alone

Portlanders Gullible Vic

Outlawed Notes.
Thousands of dollars of good money
are being extracted from gullible busi
ness men throughout PorUand and the
state by the use of old bills of the
Planters, and -Meroaants Bank of
Georgia, a state institution which went
out of commission in 1860. 'Ihe bills
resemble the currency of the United
States and by being split and paated
togetner can oe maae to nave tne gen

theaa the men malre small purchases
and receive good money In change.
L. J. Baylor has been arrested by the
fiollce. ostensibly on a charge of hav
ng opium in his possession, but In re
ality for having passed some of tha
bills. His pal, Frank Cavlneaa, la also
being sought on the same charge, but
has not yet been found by the police.
Cannot Be rn&ished.
A peculiar phase of the case is that
under the Oregon law it does not seem
Dosslble to punish the men for having
passed tl.4 bills, while they cannot bo
held liable for counterfeiting owing to
the fact mat the bills are simply out
lawed paper ef a defunct bank. The
authorities ore searching for a means
of brlna-lna- the men to book.
Baylor was arraigned ana triea in tne
municipal court thla morning for hav
ing opium in his possession. His case
was taaen unaer maviaemem until
Wednesday or Judge Cameron, and in
the meantlmu the district attorney's

find some way to reach him for passing
the old bills.

If he would not prosecute the men and
were Informed that it was not counter

Altogether tne men seam to have a

Baptist Ministers Engage in
Lively Discussion on
Birthright.
The Baptist ministers engaged In a
warm discussion thla morning follow
ing a paper by Rev. S. C Lapham on
"The Fatherhood of God." The chief
point at lsaue was concerning the
child's birthright of sin. and gave rise
to the question whether men were
naturally the children of God who went
aatray and by regeneration returned to
their natural state, or whether they
were naturally the children of the devil
who had to lie regenerated before they
could be saved.
Mr. Lapham championed the former
view and spoke of the entire race of
Adam aa the "prodigal race" which had
gone astray like the prodigal son, but
could return at any time to the having
grace of God by repentance and re-
Jenuration. Rev. I. M. Monroe and Rev.
. Leonard were the chief champions
of the other side. The entire hour was
given over to the paper and its discus

(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
Pendleton, Or., Feb. 17. The ilrst
shipment of apples from the Pilot Rock
and Birch Creek district to be sent out
over the Pilot Rock branch of the O.
R. & N. will be ready When two carloads
of winter varieties will be sent out to
a Kansas City firm. A number of pio
neer orchardlsts of this section con
tributed to the shipment, among them
being J. 8. Cherry. Richard Wiuih.
Douglas Belts and Charles and Fred
Wilson. Heretofore these orchardlsts
have sold but a small portion of thelt
crop, owing to lack of transportation.
Now that the railroad has been com-
Eleted the fruitgrowing industry has
een greatly stimulated and new
orchards will be planted this year.
Cannery for Union.
(Special Olspstcb to Tbt Journal.)
Union. Or.. Feb. 17. A movement haa
been started by orchardlsts here to es
tablish a Truit cannery. Heretofore
much of the ripe fruit has been lost be
cause of a lack of proper transportation
facilities at the "right time. By the
establishment of a cannery here all of
the crop would be saved. The cannery
will perhaps be capitalised at $60,000
and will be financed largely by local
people.

shown for hand-shearing, owing to the
fact that the machines injure the roots
of the wool by cutting too close to the
skin of the sheep. The skin of the machine-shorn
sheep, being clipped ex
tremely close, sunburns badly and this
retards the growth of the wool for an
other year.
Wool and sheep buyers are already on
