WORLD'S MARKETS TODAY SWIFT-ARfilOUR TAKE POULTRY Biff Easterners' Slowly but Surely Corralling Trade of Pacific Coast.

Watermelons !rlllnr lower. . Fine grade apples arriving. Com Ulna" Poultry Business. An efort is being made by Swift & Co. as well s Armour & Co. to control the entire dressed poultry trade of this section as well as other districts of the Pacific coast. Local nonces are already onmplalntnK of the competition the big eastern houses are putting them to. and every day adds to the hold the big people are obtaining on the market. Portland is the last of the big cities of the Pacific coast to succumb to the big interests. This city has always ' acted different from other sections in ' this respect. Portland and the Portland 'territory were always loyal to the homo -niiK-t inn and outsiders have been hav ing the time of their life in getting al foothold here. While the California cities and Seattle and Tftooma have al ways been quite favorable to the sale of eastern pressed poultry in their markets Portland consumers have scarcelv taken a liking to the outside stuff and to date sales have had to be forced. Eastern Egg Handlers' Schema. It takes something more than reguUr competition to put eastern eggs upon the local market, for were the supplies known as such the trade would have jiothlng to do with them. While every other large city on the coast takes cara of verv heavy supplies of pastern, eggs annually this market takes the smallest lots of all and then under protest tr In disguise. It Is always a schema ! the eastern egg handlers to get their stock into this market. A short time ago they forced the price of local eggs to a much higher point just so they could' create" a dentand for- the atl stuff at higher values. Now the loctl market is full or eastern eggs ana m-ve Is a k-sser demand all around. Local eeg arrivals are. quite heavy and some of the largest handlers are talking- of cutting their prices a fraction In order to unload. Slower Ton In Poultry. "There is a slower tone In the local poultry market at this time owing to the press of eastern supplies which are being offered at lower figures. This may have an effect upon local values In the near future. ' Tone in cheese market Is firmer even at the advanced price of yesterdny. Creamery butter market Is steady, but values are showing no change, local Corn Is Arriving. First' shlDments of local corn are r norted in the Front street markets and on account of the good quality sales are today being made as high as 3JC & dozen. However, a much lower rantfo is exnected within the next week. Local tomatoes, principally from the upper Columbia, are in larger supply PORTLAND LIVESTOCK RUN. Hogs, t attle.

The rapid decrease In the supplies of late is causing much appre hension among buyers who are wonder ing Just what has happened to pull down the run so.

Notwith standing this good showing of arrivals the market Is steady at yesterday's lower prices. C'attle'are also steady at the decline quoted the first day of the week; the run being Just fair during the 24 hours. During the day 26 head of horses ar rived from Eastern Oregon.

Greenville, Tex.. July 18. Ted Smith. a negro boy, was burned to death in the center of the publlo square her today by a mob amid scenes of the wildest ui- cltement- The police) were unable to cope with the excited trien, who did not desist until little was left of the boy's oony except cnarrea Donea ana aanes. The negro last night assaulted Miss vioia ueiancey at trie point or a gun, Hn enme upon the girl as she was goln to her home and threatened to kill her li she made an outcry. He frightened her so Ddinv mat sne was powerless to call for help. When the girl mane hr Wtv home late In the evening and told the story of the attack a mob waa formed Imme diately and a posse set out on the trail. Officers succeeded In finding him first and placed him In jail. This morning tne officers took the wogro from the jail and were on. their way to the Dolancey home to have the girl Identify him, when the mob. sur rounding the police, forced them to sur render the prisoner.' They then marched htm to the center of the public square. The building of a fire and the binding of the (lend In the flames was the work of but a few minutes. Miss Dolancey is In a serious condi tion at her home. : The excitement among tie negro pop I uiation is intense. rney assert that there was no positive proof against Smith and authorities fear a race war of serious proportions may break .out tonight. Many white men openly advocate driving all the, negroes out of the city. The genral Impression among the whites Is that there wan not the slightest doubt that Smith was the right negro and they say that any show of vio lence by a negro will result In tne most severe measures to keep them "In their places." The leaders of the mob are known to practically every man. woman and child in Greenville, but it la expected there will be great difficulty In bringing any action against them If the governor orders an Investigation.

With harvest well under way, the crop situation Is not nearly as disheartening as at first. Grain is yielding almost an average crop the valley through and fall wheat Is even above the normal. In Franklin county and on Eureka Flat the greatest shortage is reported, but even here wheat sown In the fall is doing well. The hot early summer, however, has damaged the spring grain and the to tal yield of the valley will be material ly shortened from last year's output on this account. In the foothill district rraln was never better. Field after leld la turning 50 bushels to the acre and the grain unthreshed Is as good. On the ranch- of the Knott Brothers, three miles above Walla Walla on Mill creek, 100 acres have yielded 6,000 bushels of No. 1 wheat. Further to wards the mountains the grain Is even better and the acreage larger than that of last year. Yields of from 25 to 35 bushels, are reported as average In the valley proper, fiEVADAllS ARE UP AGAIN Oee!

Or., July 28 Harvest Is In full blast In Glllfam county and the prospects are much more promising than they were some time ago. The spring grain as a whole Is poor except in certain sections where farmers have farmed with seal. The fall gtaln. how ever, will make good averages. Head ers are being run so far and as the combines have not as yet been put to work the yield per acre cannot as yet) be obtained. Barley Is showing up at i 30 bushels per acre in the Rock Creek I neighborhood and equally good reports come from different sections. Some of the farmers in the Eight-Mile district are getting twice as much to the acre as they did a year ago. J. C.
