creased aov.uoo bushels, total world
visible increased 2,686.000 bushels.
Corn Increased 441.000 bushels.

After the opening of the market here
which sent December c lower to 103
and May down an equal sum at 107
there was a slight steadying of forces
and with some short covering a portion
of the early decline was regained. At
the close December was c down. May
unchanged and July c higher than

TKOLliEY TRAVELEKS
Traffic Falls Off to the Extent That
Trailers Are No Longer
Needed.
(Special Dispatch to Tbt Journal.)
Vancouver, Wa.h., Nov. 24. A. the
result of the opening of the North Bank
line Into Portland, travel on the Van
couver-Portland line of the Portland
Railway, Light A Power company ha.
fallen off, and indications are that in
the -near future all trailer, will be ills-
continued.
Since the construction of the NorthJ
Bank began three year, ago, travel
over the electric line ha. increased to
such an extent that the service had to
be doubled, and even then dosens were
compelled to stand on the morning and
evening trips. This Increase wa. partly
due to the large number of persons lom-
Jiloyed In construction work, but of "late
arge numbers of passengers arrlving
and departing from Vancouver traveled
over the electric line to and from Port
land. All of this now goes over the
bridges.
For the rtast six months the trolley
trains from Vancouver between 4 and 6
o'clock In the evening carried from 100
to 150. Laat evening the largest num
ber carried on any single trip was 41,
and on the 6:30 trip but 22 persons took
passage on
the
ferry bound for Port-
land.
If the statement of F. I. Fuller, gen
eral manager of the street railway com
pany. Is correct, the company win now
lose money every day it operates the
Vancouver line, adoui is montiis ago.
when aDnearinK before the county com
mlssloners of this county at the time
that body was endeavoring to secure a
lower passenger rate between Vancouv
er and Portland, Mr. Fuller made the
statement that the company could not
possibly lower the fare, as the line was
nareiv maaina- eKoenses. At tnat time
and for a year previous the line was
handling nearly twice as many people
as it ever had before or is at present.
