Cheese Market X Advancing'
Willie wholesale grocers generally
advanced tlielr imotutlons In tho cheese
market to 14 Ho for flats, triplets and
daisies the latter part of Just week
Front street handlers did not move up
their quotations and values ruled rather
mixed. Today some of the Krpnt street
hou.'-es tuit tin their Quotations to HUc
for anything except In rare lots and tho
market Is firm ut that figure. For
large lots they have udvaiioed their
quotations from 13'4Sil3o to 14c
pound: showing practically the same
rise ns for small lots. Reports from
the Tillamook makers tell the same
story of heavy purchases whenever sup
plies are offered.
Tgg Market Holding1 Well.
Whllo some receivers are rcportlnij
large supplier of egss, the trade in
feneral Is short and for that reason
hero Is a slight bulge In quotations
with today's Values ruling between 24 it
25c a dozen. However, a large per cent
of the nales continue to be reported at
24c. Quality Is much the same as last
week and Is lust about like former
years for this season.
Qreamery Butter Weaker.
A constant grind Is shown In cream
fry butter sales and makers report fx
perlenolng much difficulty In moving
all supplies. On this account they an
forced to put away large surplus stocks
In the storage house. There Is no
outsldo market for butter at this time;
till attempts to force goods on the
trade only resulting In a lower rango
of price offerings.
Chicken Market Is Firm.
While the receipts of poultry during
the pint 24 hours were quite heavy the
market remains In a very fjrm posi
tion with the trado taking all that
mines nt prices quoted by Tho Journal.
As long as receivers keep values with
in bounds there Is not likely to be
much of a concession In values; unless
.Jtiere la a radical increase In arrivals
or a Klmllnr decrease In consumption.
Heavy Supplies of Peaches.
Very heavy supplies of local peaches
are shown in the Front strcft markets.
JIoNt of the mocks are coming from
The Dalles and other Columbia river
points. Some of the very small fruit
anld as low as 60c a box during the
dav's trading but the better sizes an I
quality brought yeeterday'a quotations
Tw'o cars of cantaloupes came In this
morning from California in good con
dition. Market firm at $2.50 for regu
lar crates.
A car of Walla Wall.T red onlona was
among tho morning's rail arrivals.
Brief Notes of the TTaUe.
Best quality of dressed veal Is still
In good demand tilling the street but
poor meits of nil kinds are not wanted.
Supplies of local and California to
matoes are heavily Increased. A feature
of the present tomato movement Is the
.'really Increased supplies being offered
Ly nearby sections. This Is expected
to Interfere somewhat with the sales
of sin ii large lots of eastern Oregon
stuff.
New potatoes arc down another notch
with somewhat larger supplies from
local points.
Watermelon trade Is good nt the de
cllne in price values yesterday.
Hop dealers report an absence of bus
iness of any kind, either spot or con
trail, at the moment.
While th.-re Is a firmer tone In hides
and wool no change is today shown In
l.wil values.
Siring bo ins are rather scarce along
t ., -Meet and the market Is firmer.

Its way up to 76 4 o when It took a
moment's rest and reacted a few frac
tions. At times during the day the

Buyers are today freely offering 83c
for new club and 86o for bluestem
which amounts In reality to an advance
of lc a bushel over yesterday. Tho
cash wheat situation In this market
today is the firmest for opening opera
Hons for many years. Many purchases
of small lots of now crop wheat have
been reported during the past 24 hours
at thesa figures Portland basis, and
now that the deadlock between buyers
and sellers has been broken there
promise of heavy operations for the
near future.
The present price of new wheat Is
but 3c a bushel under the quotation
ottered and paid for old crop and gradu
ally the premium In favor of the old
crop Is being wiped away.
Millers are firm In their views on
new crop flour and there Is no dispo
sition to sell under tho price listed
for old crop make $3.50vi 3.60 a barrel.
On the Portland board of trade Sep
tember wheat waa advanced lc In the
bid to 82o whllo sellers were asking
87c. (luring the session there was a
special bid of SNo for bluestem but no
sellers appeured under &3o. The pres
ent market for old bluestem Is hut 8sc
so the new crop la even stronger than
me .old.

Twelve men are being taught how
the t'nlted States runs Its land distrib
uting business over In the federal court
before Judge Wolverton. The twelve
men are the members of the Jury
which has been selected to decide upon
the guilt or Innocence of R. A. Booth,
James Henry Booth and T. A. Singleton.
The Instructors are United States At
torney McCourt and Dan J. Malarkcy,
lasslstod by Thomas n. Neuhausen and
James Bridges, former receiver of the
Hosehurg land office. The last two are
Incidentally wluicsses for the govern
ment In the case, against tho three de
fondants. It might also be argued that anyone
troubled with Insomnia could find
aboundant relief by attending the Booth
trial. One or two of the Jurors and sev
eral of the spectators are not troubled:
with Insomnia.
Thomas B. Neuhausen was the first '
witness on tue stand tins morning, lie
70 4 I having made a start yesterday ofter
38 4 I noon. Neuhausen Identified a number
104 of official papers dealing with the trans
33 actions of Thomas A-gee, about whose
61tl 524 application for a homestead In Iane
130 1130 4 'county the prosecution of the three de-
HV I M 4 I fendants Is bullded.
100 Hoc, v4 I Forgot to Plod Letters.
H District Attorney McCourt. who Is
taking the lead In tho Booth case, gave
Neuhausen over to the defense for
cross examination a few minutes after
court was convened tins morning. Ml.
Malarliev who Is .iolng the cross-questioning
for the defense, pried Into Neu
liausen s connection with the Booth case
and tried to find out hy ho "had nut
dug up all the papers relating to tho
Agoe claim whrn he began his Inves
tigations as a special agent whirh led
: up to tho Booth Indictment.
' It Is claimed by tho defense that the
i whole Agee transaction can be ex
plained by correspondence which passed
between Ringer lltimann, commlsslon
i er of Ihe general land office, and A.
I M. Crawford, then attorney for Agee.
' Neuhausen In his Investigations had
not found the Crawford-Herrmann l-t-:
ters, and, according to Ills testimony,
i had made no effort to do so until a
i short time before the commencement
of - the present trial, when he tele
! trrnr.tie.l fo Washlnulon for them.

TEAK DOWN BUILDINGS
AT FIFTH AND STARK
Wreckers were put to work this morn
ing destroying the old frame building 1
on the Brady quarter block at the
coiner of Fifth and Stark streets, prop
erty which is now controlled by Gay
Lombard under a long-term lease.
There has been a permistent street
rumor for some weeks that Mr. Lombard
intended putting up a large offloij
building on this corner, hut when ap
proached on the subject ho declined ta
state what character of Improvement
he intends building there. Mr. Lombard
left for California last Saturday, and
announced before leaving that he would
probably be prepared to say what kind
of building Is to go up on the Brady
corner upon his return to Portland.
In tho general synod of the Lutheran
church 124 congregations have In
creased tho salaries of their pastors
this year.

Hermann to Stay
J T Brldccs was the
called after Neuhausen had been ex
cused. Bridges also identified a long
list of official documents, and on cross
examination went Into an extended ex
planation of how men took up home
steads, how the local land offices did
their hnslness. how the records were 1
kept, how mineral land was distin
guished from agricultural land by the
officials of the land office, and various
other Items of detail. When the noon j
recess came Mr. Bridges was still ex- ,
plaining, and was given a rest until 2 ,
o'clock, when the court resumed Its con- j
shleratlon of the case. i
It was rumored yesterday afternoon :
that ltlnger Hermann, former commls- ;
sloner of the land office and congress- 1
man from the First district, mlglit be j
dragged out of his retirement at Rose-,
burg and brought to Portland as. a wit-'
ness for the: defense. This Is not likely
to be, however, according to memherB j
of the defense, as all the Information j
that Mr. Hermann could give Is already 1
provided for. Should there be any slip, j
however, making necessary the testl- j
nmnv of Mr. Hermann. It Is understood
that he has signified his willingness to
come to Portland as a witness.

The entire afternoon yesterday, with
the exception of the short time occu
pied hv Mr. Neuhausen, was taken up
with the discussion of the defense's
side of the controversy by Dan J. Ma
larkcy in bis opening statement to the
dirv. Mr. Malarkev made no oratorical
flights In his address, but talked to
the jury ns one man would converse
with another. He spent a good deal
of time discussing the purpose and
intent of the homestead law. and con7
tende-i that a continuous residence was
not contemplated by the law. He com
mented on the fact that the Indictment
had been returned more than three
years ago Rnd that the defense was
now compelled to attempt to explain
transactions which occurred nearly 17
years ago.
Bad Man Figures In Case.
He explained that Agee had been In
timidated bv Bill Bradlel. one of Doug
las county's bad men. and had desired
to change his claim In that county for
one In Ijno countv. He began a corre
spondence with Blnger Hermann, then
commissioner of the genrol lnnd of
fice, who promised to as!t him in
p. curing lieu land, and that as a result
ef all the negotiations he at lat did go
to Roseburg before Jam's JTenrv Booth
and made an exchange of his claims.
Mr Malarkev assured the lirv that

TO THE PUBLIC.
I wish to state that I am not now nor have I been
since the date of absorption of the Oregon Trust
& Savings Bank, connected in any capacity with the
German-American Bank of this city, either as of
ficer, director or stockholder, and I would ask that
all communications relative to the business of the
bank be addressed to its officers or to the bank
direct instead of to me; also that all communica
tions relative to the business of the Oregon Trust &
Savings Bank in liquidation, be addressed to the
receiver instead of to me.
