The ravine Is between the farms of Howard Bell and William Tiudderow on the banks of the Big- Timber creek and Js a favorite spot for picnic parties. Daniel Yarrow, in company with two young women, found the trunk. The curiosity of the women as to the con tents led Yarrow to out the ropes which held together the badly rotted sides of the trunk. With the ropes off the trunk collapsed, exposing the body. Constable William Kauffman was no tified. The body was badly decomposed ns the result of having been in the trunk for months. Papers packed about it bore dates vearly in November of last year. Coroner- Fithian, who made an exam ination of the 'body, said the man had been shot throush the breast with a re volver of large caliber and then had been strangled with a yellow shirt which had been twisted around his throat. The police say it would have been Impossible for one person to kill the man, pack him In the trunk and suc- ceeq in getting it to tne out-or-tne-way pot where it was found. Mrs. Rosenbloom was so excited and nervous that she could not complete the confession, but It Is practically certain she will be able to explain how the trunk was transported to Belle Mawr and put Into the stream. The daughter, Eva, who witnessed the death of her father, could give the police little in Xort!iu,tiim. When Mrs. Rosenbloom was presped for an explanation of how the body was tied and placed In the trunk, she cried: "I don't know! I don't know! I didn't know what Alexander did with it! Oh, I shall go crazy! It's horrible, horrible. I ean't stand it!" No formal charge has been placed against the mother and daughter. A warrant has been Issued for the arrest of Alexander Rosenbloom, and he is be ing sought by the police. made to Have it siinni I tted to a vote of the people at the next general election. It is believed, that the present court house block could be sold for a sum large enough to pav for the High School hlock and leave a balance which would go a long ways towards putting up a courthouse that would meet tint requirements of Multnomah county for all time to come. The carrvlng out of this program would not only give the county a much needed new courthouse, but it would When seen this morning Judge Web ster of the county court expressed him self as being o..os. d to the proposi tion of building a new courthouse on the old liiph S.'-hnol hlock. "It Is too far from the business center," said Judge Webster, "and I don't believe that such a move would meet with the approval of the people. Personally. I am in favor of the county's buying the block lust south of the courthouse and erecting on it a building to be used by a part of the county officials. "It would ho a mistake to remove the court so far from the center of the cltv, ami so far from the city hall ns the High School block at Fourteenth and Morrison streets." BOY TELLS WEIRD TALE OF BEING TIED BY ROPE AND LEFT IN STREET to duty and the license of Becond offl cer I.eo Miller was suspended for 30 days for negligence. The accident was a narrow escape from a serious disaster because the steam schooner went on the beach dur ing a hea-wy fog when the sea was un usually rough. 'Only a good stroke "f luck. It Is.-.said, saved ttie vessel from remaining on the sands or going to the bottom after getting afloat again. The keel was badly torn, however. First Officer Batchelder was on tho bridge at the time and hence responsi ble for the steamer's position. Besides a large cargo the Washington carried a large number of passengers whoso lives were imperiled. Few of them knew of the danger they had been in until several hours later, as they were asleep in their bunks at tho time, tie grounding having occurred at 2:30 o'clock in the morning.

" of noii I v 672.000. 000 against about 634,- uo"..hio last year. The opinion of the foVemost private authorities Is that the government's in dicated yiei.i is ut least to, 000,000 bush els too high for spring wheat and about 40.0O00.o0o too high for winter wheat. Since August 1 tho spring wheat crop suffered extreme drought and fungtis damage In the northwest; and the bu reau estimate of winter wheat produc Hon does not take Into account acreage nhandoned or otherwise lost from the harvest. Tho Illinois yield as officially reported by state authorities reaches hardly 20.0on.0O0 against a government Indication of 30.212,000. Good opinion In the trade Is that the bureau ignore loss by floods In Indiana. Texas, Kan- san, .Missouri and Oklahoma. It Is as serted b.v traveling observers that thou sands of acres In those regions were not cut at all ami that large areas will pro duce from 3 to 10 bushels per acre at the thresher. The belief of sn accepted crop niilhority is that the winter wheat crop will run 4i),n00,ii00 under the gov ernment's Indicated crop because of the bureau's failure to eliminate 2.000.000 in res lost by flood and drought ' and tyy the use of an nrre-nvcfngo yield higher ihan the threshing results warrant. lie ports from "our own sources throughout the belt nre exceedingly uneven, but when tabulated without weighting, show a total crop of 27.u0O,0OO bushels tinder the August Indication of the gov ernment. Summing up, we fel Justi fied in concluding that the 1908 cron of merchantable wheat, will scarcely equal that erathered last y-ir. Consid ering the low world's stocks and the depleted reserves in retail hands every where, with an Inevitably strong export demand, It seems reasonable to expect a high level of prices for breadstur'fs throughout the crop year. "T.lttl9 Increase In Corn. On the basis of the crop reporting bu reau's August 1 estimate the yield of maize Indicated Is 2,tj'16,2?4,00O bushels against 2,592.320,000 In the final esti mate lor 1907. Our own correspondents in the belt, basing their estimates on extensive inquiries indicate a yield smaller than 1907 hv 1.7 per cent. This suggests a crop of 2.(123. 000,000 bushels. The Important matter to consider in estimating the eorp crop Is that there was far more than the usual amount of replanting this spring, and that large areas were drowned out and put Into other crops. These losses cannot have been deducted from the 101,000,000 acre age used as the basis of government estimates. The measured crop of 1907 was of very Inferior quality. It has been estimated by careful handlers that the crop reduced to marketable grain of standard weight amounted to Z50, 000,000 bushels less than the final yield estimate of the government. The seed corn from that crop was low In vitality, unless specially selected and fire dried at harvest. Reports from Important areas show much conflict of opinion, hut the best Informed men In the merchant grain trade are coming to believe that the 1908 total will be little if any larger than the crop of 1907 under the best possible maturing conditions. Fortu nately the danger Incident to pollination has been avoided. The danger now feared Is that premature low tempera tures may prevent normal maturing o'f the crop In the north-central part of the belt. At tills time the plant is mak ing fine progress. Visible stocks of corn are extremely low and the amount of old grain In farmer's hands at the end of the crop year cannot but be much lower than usual. The price has ruled high in spite or great business de pression ami leduced consumption dur ing the first half of 190R; and It seems Inevitable that prices will be fully sus tained, if not advanced, with gradual re vival of business activity. Oats. The government's June Indication was for an oats crop of 1, 065,000. 000 bush els. Tho July percentage figures re duced this estimate to 970.000.ooo. The August report showed further sensa tional Impairment, Indicating 873,400, 000 bushels. V The reports of our correspondents drawn from Information at hirst hands suggest that even this forecast is much above the actual truth as It will he revealed at the thresher.
