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 Union Stockyards, July 27

(United Proee Leased Wire.)
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.

Walla "Walla, July 28. 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,

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

be obtained. Barley Is showing up at i
30 bushels per acre in the Rock Creek I

are getting twice as much to the acre
as they did a year ago.
