HAMILTON BROUGHER IS ME VESTOCK Portland wholesale markets: Hop contractors won t purchase. Cabbage supplies very scarce. ' ' ' Cheese market firmer. Slight scarcity In peaches.

While ostensibly quite willing tn rntr r.rnduoern 10c a pound ror con r.i. nn the comlnc crop, practically no deals ut that figure have of late been made. There are quite a number of orders In around 80 a pound but as - Jong; as the producer nas an men. umi " , lOo la beln paid he will not tie up his crou for a lower figure. That would not be business. t Hop Contractors IgTiore Sealers. Thi th rnntraptor are JIOW over anxioua to purchase their supposed or der for a thousand balea or so, Is the general belief of the hop trade. "I of ?r4 nna nt these 10c men the selec tion of both my Brooks and Indepond- ' ence yards, Conrad Kreba told The .journal. out ne wouia nuv ouh vu., ider the proposition. The product of these vards la anione the best in the rnuntrv anil if this 10c man whs so anxioua to purchase his order he would have done business with me. The fact that he did not take thorn shows the situation to be less strong than had ... been.advertlsed." Shortag- of Peaches Today. There was a shortage of best peaches along; Front street today and for Craw fords the price Is showing an advance :. of 10c a box. Cucumbers are in an oversupply and i by the box they are selling from a range or 60 to 76c along the street. TJie Wobb estate showed a new - wrinkle In cherry packing today by Bending to market a shipment of one- pound paper eartona which were faced (our cherries to the row each way. Cantaloupes are slightly easier again ' with sales being made around $2.60. . Oregon stock is coming in more freely and in selling from $2.60 to $3 a crate. Mors Doing In Canned MUX. Still another brand of canned milk has been added to the market from the Pacific northwest and a lower price is : . being quoted. This is being done, too, despite the fact that canned milk people are now paying on advance of 3c a 1 pound for butter fat. Creamery butter market Is holding well .il the advance of 2 He quoted yes terdav by c'.ty makers. Today the price was Advanced a similar amount by oat aide people. Scarcity of Dressed Veal. While the demand is by no means ex- rlteri. there Is a firmer tone in dressed veal and once ' in a while a slightly higher price Is obtained by receivers At this time of the year the market will rot stand very heavy shipments and 1 that is generally the reason why shlp : ' pers hold aloof. They have learned by experience that fair-sized shipments at this time invarianiy nring a Slump m . values. Pressed mutton Is soiling too low to force veal much higher. Xiooks Like Drop la Chiokens. While springs are the only ones to ; show even fractionally lower values to day, the general tone of the chicken market Is duller and stocks are showing an accumulation along the street. Here tofore there has been a very liberal (Ionian 1 for both fryers and broilers around 2ic a pound but today some sales are being m;ule at 18c for these lines. Continuation of present rate of arrivals will result in lower prices all ulon e. Essr market Is .lust holding Ita own locally because of the generally lib eral arrivals. Quality Is still quite poor because of the long-holding by country shippers as well as producers. Eastern eggs are now being freely of fered to the trade at 22 4 fa 23c a dozen and as they are of similar quality to tho local product it is hard to maintain val ues at a higher figure for home stock "Front street sells at the following prices.

Bidding of a very excitable character was shown on tho Portland board of trade today. An advance of 2c was bid for December and 2c for Septerqber delivery of club wheat. No supplies were offend for September, but Decem ber was offered at X!4c, but no sales resulted. The upward trend of the mar ket Is said to be duo to the efforts of one interest to force a short seller for European account to pay more money. Cash wheat is booming at an ad vance of 2c n bushel for confirmed sales, although there are reports that as high as SSc for club (Portland de livery) hns been paid In the country. Outs futures were firm today, but unchanged In price. Barley advanced 6c a cental for Sep tember, but was unchanged for Decem ber. Board of trade prices: CLUB WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.

Drs. Josephl, Williamson and House have examined Hamilton at different times. Their visit have resulted In an unanimous eoncluslon that the man is not responsible for his acts and should not be trlod for his crime. He unfolded to the doctors extravagant plans for gaining wealth that gave evidence of an unbalanced Intellect, and from ob- 11 1 servatlons of his conduct the examiners eliminated all doubts as to his mental condition. Pupers in the case probably will be made out this afternoon and the formal action necessary by Judge Webster of the county court will be taken, so that Hamilton may be sent to Salem with little further delay.

Peery, who constitute the fire commission of the city of Portland, held a meeting yes terday and adjourned at the time the big fire started in the north end. Hoping to get some practical knowledge that would aid them In their administration of the fire department they rushed to the Are and crowded through the dead line. "Get back there," shouted a burly policeman as he grabbed his honor by the shoulder and shoved him back into the crowd. "Hold on there," shouted Flelschner, showing his badge of authority, "that is Mayor Lane." The policeman released his honor, looked him In the face and then saluted. The mayor re turned the salute and the police man sought fresh victims In an other territory. UNKNOWN MAN'S I'nless Mayor Lane, the city council and the executive board, custodians of the city's morals and administrators of her laws, get busy during th month of August and clean house a little bit, there will be something started about the first of September, when Dr. J. Whltcomb Brougher, pastor of the Whit Temple, returns from his summer vacation. Dr. Brougher believes that three things should be done by the adminis trators or me city and he believes that the time has come to do them. He be lieves that the under world should be aeait with in some sane and adequate manner; mat mere snouid De an ordi nance passed which will bar women from the suloons of the city; that there snouia do anotner ordinance which will nbnllsh the sale of liquors In restaur ants under the conditions now axlstlng at least. These three things especially h will Insist on and in his insistence Dr. Brougher says he Is not proceeding on his own Initiative and desire alone but in harmony with and with the assist ance of a number of the prominent business and professional men of the city. Enforce All 'tow. "I have no hostile feeling toward any member of the city administration," said Dr. Brougher this morning. "But I feel that It la time for some effort to be made toward cleaning up the conditions I now existent In the city. I realize that It Is a big problem, yot I believe that some start should be made in some di rection. "My position Is this," continued Dr. Brougher. "As a law abiding citlzan of Portland I believe that all of the laws should be enforced as they stand. I do not see how the mayor or the council or any official, bound by oath to uphold tho law, can make any ex ceptions to any person or class of per sons and allow them to violate the law nnd be nbovo It or outside its pale. Therefore I believe that the right course would bo for the mayor to en force tho law against the social evil as it stands on the books. Then if this enforcement does not meet the condi tions, or does not measure up with the sentiment of the people, let the council or the people change the law. "On this ground 1 would suggest that It might be wise for the mayor to en force the law, and If it did not meet with popular approval then let him call a council of tho prominent men of the city and work out some solution to the problem which would pe equitable, Just and adequate. "I do not want to go Into this matter In detail at this time," continued Dr Trial Juror Taken Sick. James McKlnnon of Portland, a salesman, one of the Jurors in the Booth-Singleton case, was taken sick this morning and a physician was called to attend him. Court took a recess for 16 minutes and Mr. McKlnnon was able to resume his -place In the Jurors' box". Dr. J. C. Zan, who examined Mr. McKlnnon, said that he was subject to malaria contracted In the Philippines and that there was nothing whatever alarming In Mr. McKInnon's sickness. " "Mr. McKlnnon has an excel lent heart action and he will be able to continue the trial," said Dr. Zan. "Mr, McKInnon's con stitution la a strong one but once In a whllo he has slight fainting attacks which for a time make him weak. Mr. Mc Klnnon has been feeling ill for several days. I think he will have entirely recovered within two days and that In the mean while he will be able to continue to hear the evidence." 14U140 124 32 11S;117 "si XV "8 1 7 1 I; 1 1 J 72 82 21 74 17 34 27 is" 40 93 119 19 60 25 19 I 19 48 48 25 j 25 23 49 50 49 49i . .ll53:lf.4il52M53 83 83 82 82 28 2SI 28 I 28 - -I I 96 ' 4 .1 i 4 4 i 41 HroughtT.

A to the Kerr-Glfford company yesterday yet oc- Femlninlty, and Incidentally the ac companying human interest, the first to be Introduced In the Booth-Singleton conspiracy case In the United States circuit court, was in evidence this morn ing when pretty 16-year-old Edna Bchloeman, daughter of a former store keeper and postmaster at Ouk Creek, and two other women, were called to the stand as government witnesses to prove and cerlfy certain contentions of the officials of the prosecution. Miss Schloeman, although only a few years old when tho accounts in ques tion began between I. Thomas Agee, tho government's priucipal witness, and her father, is a daughter of August bchloe man, who was on the stand several days ago, and by which tho government brought out facts to Indicate that Ageo had lived at Oak Creek and voted there during a part of the time he afterward alleged he had been living on his home stead. The governments charge is that ' Agee entered into ah agreement with the Booth-Kelly officials to get this land as soon as he could, and then trans fer the deed to thorn. It is claimed by the United States attorneys that Agco did not reside on the land the. 10111 lied length of time. The accounts Mr. Cchloeman hud with Agee covered a period of vears from 1894 until 1898. In refreshing his memory Mr. Schloeman was allowed to examine several of his ledgers. Tho accounts in the ledger bad been copied from day books. His daughter had posted the day books from the original charges. This had been done, of course, during the last few years since Miss Schloeman had been attending school. Mistake In the Account. Dan Malarkey, counsel for tho de fense, showed that he knew sonethlnir about bookkeeping and illustrated to Miss Schloeman where she had uiadt a little Innocent mistake. From accounts her father had refreshed he: memory. Tho idea of tho defense v;.s to show .that Mr. Schloeman. s state ments mlght not have been exactly cor rect as to dates, owing to the mtstako In dates made by his daughter Mrs. Agee, wife of I. Thomas Agee, was also on the stand. She identified several letters signed with In r hus band's name as having been written by herself. Mrs. Agee said that she bad carried on all the communication be tween J. H. Shupe. a Roseburg attor ney, and Mr. Agee and that very often her husband didn't know Just what alio had written. These letters were with reference to arrangements for exchang ing the homestead claim for lied land and other legal affairs of Agee. Identifies Father Letters. Just before noon the government fin ished with Miss Minnie Shupe of Rose burg, who Identified several letters written by her fatoer, now dead. Mis.) Shupe is a stenographer and formerly helped her father In his office. Mr. Shupe had had charge of completing certain transactions for Mr. Agee. Shown tho deed to the Booth-Kellv Lumber company for the land Misi Shupe was positive tliBt It had no: been made out on the typewriter used by her father. Harry Dunbar, a bookkeeper In tho employ or the Booth-Kelly Lumber enmnanv and who made out the checks and drafts payable to Agee for tho deed to the land, is on tne siana ims huo noon and Identified the slips of paper In Question. Several other government witnesses will be 'examined thla after noon and In all probability the prosecu tion will rest Its case before the closing of court for the day. Witnesses examined yesterday after noon were Captain S. B. Ormshy, n for mer forest superintendent; E. L. Rousen of Hawthorne, and Robert AVatson. a Douglas county rancher.

The percentage of smutty wheat Is larger than usual, and reports show that most parts of eastern Oregon and Washington are somewhat affected, and It makes a difference in the sole of the grain, the smutty wheat going at least five cents a bushel less As harvest progresses In Umatilla county it Is shown that in most places there will be about ten bushela leaa to the acre than last year. It la now figured that there will be a total of 8.760,000 bushels of wheat harvested Last vear there was a total of 6.000,000 bushels in Umatilla county. notn Copper Marker. ri.rr'..ed by inerbeek I- Cooke CO y r Hid prlrea I" ld Iom. . 7 4 .
