Oregon Wool Men Lose Nearly
$100,000.
Pendleton Or.. Aug. .".That Oregon
woolgrowers were literally "robbed'' out
of approximately i;SO,iHl0 tills year, was
the statement made to an hast Ore
gonian reporter this morning, and the
report of the wool sales held at Miles
Cltv. Mont.. July 27. was cited as evi
dence. This report shows the following
sales: 869 sacks, or nearly 500.000
pounds, at 187c; 261 sacks at 17c;
404 sacks nt 17He; 4'.t"i sacks at from
lf'.o to 17c and 98 sacks at from 15c. to
16c
YVhen it Is remembered that the aver
age price paid for Hie iregnn clip was
but 12c, a glance at the above figures
will lend credence to the statement
mude by an informed Portland man
this morning, who says Oregon sheep
men were entitled to approximately 4
cents more per pound. Tnis man has
followed the situation carefully, not
onlv this year but for a number of
vt-ars. and Is probably as well posted
iiH to the facts as any man In the
northwest. I
The price for the Oregon clip was 12c.
while that for the Montana clip Is prob-
ably 16c, ' certainly not below that fig-
lire", -showing a difference f 4c, which i
on this year's 1 7.000,000 pounds clip I
means a loss to the state of $ 6 si'i.oim.
This loss Is distributed principally1
among a few eastern Oregon count i
It now seems apparent that the, be
ers efime. Into the field this year with
a determination to take advantage of
the uncertain market and slump the
prices as much as possible. Tim Ore
gon fleeces, being 111" first clipped, were,
put on the market first and were there
fore made to suffer.
That the local growers made a big
mistake in alb. w!ni.- the sales tn be
held here when tl.ey did Is universally
admitted and teat they will make a
worse one next year If they allow their
sabs to be held hef..re the question of
tariff revision Is definitely settled, Is
also generally- believed.
While all eastern .ingon flock nnn
ors were heavy b.s.is this year. t'i"s,.
of Umatilla county suffered more than
auv of the others, b. -cause the very first
sales were held here and 12c yvas eh-se
to the top price here Instead of the
average.

Liverpool Grain Market
Liverpool. Aug. 8. Wheat closed
For stealing chairs, carpets, ruga.
and In fact everything ho could carry
off, Frederick Strong, the garden hose
thief who barely escaped from Pa
trolmnn Wade yesterday morning, la
now being sought by the police.
Ills home on Noitlirup between
Eighteenth and Nineteenth was rallied
by Detectives Jones and Tlcbenor at
noon today. A wagonload of stolen
goods was found and brought to thu
police station.
Strong was absent from home when
the officer called, but Mrs. Strong
and his two children were there. She
would, of course, give no Information
regarding the movements of her hus
band. Apparently Strong, whose name wna
written on tho Inside -of the Panama
hat which fell off when Strong Jumped
a back fence and escaped from the
policeman, used his spnody. cushion
bicycle to ride out North Portland and
levy upon careless householders. But
he did not follow the usual methods
of sneaJc thieves' In selling tho stolen
articles to pawnshops, but Instead used
them to furnish his own comfortable
i home.
The detectives have been trying vain
ly for weeks to find tho man who was
so persistently helping himself to fur
niture and hose left outside houses
along North Eighteenth and Nineteenth
streets, but the fact that Strong made
no move toward disposing of the goods
made the task very difficult.
Patrolman Waile was stationed along
Nineteenth street yesterday morning to
find tho early morning burglar. Strong
oame along at 6 o'clock on a bicycle
and took a section of garden hose..
When questioned by the officer, "he led
the way to 128 North Eighteenth, and
then, on a pretext, got into the back
yard, and, Jumping- the fenoe, made good
his escape. His Panama hat, with his
name written Inside, gave the clue the
detectives needed. Mrs. Strong, when
questioned today, said the bicycle, also
left behind yesterday, an. expensive ma
chine, was brought frgjn Chicago.
Among the articles found In the house
were several sections of garden hose.
