TV., nnli. 1 1 rv. I f . . . ... o .....,, f i ,a n o In r. - .
lines this morning was lack of 'Stuff.
Commission men had numerous calls for
dressed veal and hogs, but nothing in
the market, and all. that CQifld be done
was to hope for something on the next
train or boat. It is expected that be
fore evening the situation will be im
proved, - , .
GOOD TRICES OFFERED
Front street Is offering good prices
for dressed-vial -ami peffcy fancy- veal
bringing 13 ntsand pork 104 very
readily, if farmers hnve anything in
these lines ta, ship, now seems the
time, for it Is expected that the market
will be weaker ntxt week, the heavy
demand at this tinie being due 'to the
great number of - people "Jn the city at
tending tne JilkH' convention.
POULTRY SELLS READILY
There was a big call for poultry this
morning and rather few chickens in
6ight. The market cleaned up fiiu- Sat
urday evening, leaving very little on
band for this morning. Hens are quoted
at 12 and young birds i 1" arid 18
cents. There were no ducks on the
etreet this morning mil the gees that
cam in during the bitter part of last
week have been disposed or.
BUTTER ADVANCES
As announced in yesterd.ny'a Journal,
butter advanced a cent this worniiiK,
the advance being in line with th c.i
eral Improvement in the demand for all
farm products, l(nw Ions the Inrn-.'iHwl
quiiations will pro vail is a mutter of
conjecture. While rluesp Is firm no
change in quotations -was noted this
morning.
EGGS ADVANCE
Effort was made this morning to hold
egKS at 21 and 25 cents, it is said that
there are plenty of rs'ini epics sn tli
Held and that these will he disposed of
If the Oregon product is quoted hnh
enough. There is reason to btliv that
the market will be lower next week.
BERRIES IX DEMAND
There is a pood demand for nil kinds
of berries ri'ul valu. s arc holding up
vU, rspbrries, lloknrrlA, currant
and loganberries selling- at $1.75 and
$2. A few strawberries came In tnla
morning. Lilnckbt-nii . are v?n pb-ntiful
than other vaiii-iks, but it is expi. ctr-d
that receipts will bo heavur In a f.w
cia ya.
CAXTALOrPKS HlfiTII-.U
The hot weather in the middle states
has created a bijj demand for canta-
loupes and Imperial Vallev urowei
are b-ingins values to a point como'-ll-
lug Portland Iioukch to ask f::75 lor
jumbos. S2.&0 for standards and $2.25 '
for ponies. This nx-ant an advance of
25 cents sine Saturday. A carload of
watermelons Is en route but has been
delned Mn;ewhcre along tho line. It is
raesing no particular ImnKhip, how
ever, since there is no great call for
watTmelons duriti'i: the prevailing cool
ueatl'.tr. . "

Efforts to Bear Market Hare Been

The hop market for 1911 hops has

upwards of 600 bales or more having
been disposed of, which included the
following lots to different buyers: Slo
per Brothers, -73 bales, to Wlgans Klch

Sales ot other small lots brines down
the unsold stock to around 400 bales,
and with several firms trying hard to
buy theso unsold lots it is almost cer
tain there will be a complete cleanup
of 1911'Oregons within the next 10 days.
The above sales will hardly bear out
the bearish reports that are still wide
ly circulated to the effect that spot
goods must' find Its level as based on
contract hops. - Such arguments ara ab
solutely ridiculous and for the reason
that lr a brewer needs hops now, it
stands to reason he is not forced to buy
contracts, but - h certainly would bo

working, and then again It's safe to say
hs is not buying apota unless he .is
forced to do so and in such cases he Is
compelled to pay the price asked. The
report that large blocks of 1911 hops
wore offered at 25c la absolutely false
In every rei-pect. but if the case was

Famous Warship Admired by
Throngs; Vandalism Re
ported on Ship.
While an enormous crowd of people
visited tho battleship Oregon, lying at
anchor in the harbor yesterday after
noon, tli o attendance was comparative
ly small this morning, probably owing
to the fact that but few people knew
that the historic old fighter was to be
open to the public In the morning dur
ing her stay here.
Customs Inspectors figures for the
numoer oi people who wvni nuuniu
nat"ef!nlP lM morning were juu in
round numbers. Tha hours fixed for
5 ! morning visits to the war vessel are
Sslfrom 9:30 to 11:30, but no one will
29 j v,n nnnu.-od to land on the float or so
aboard after 11 o clock, in order Tor
the officers of the Oregon to have time
to clear the decks by 11:30. For the
same reason visitors will be allowed to
go " aboard In "' fK'"irfeYn6on'''"oRTyr"'bi'
twee 11 the hours of 1:30 and 4:30, that
the decks may be cleared of the crowd
by 5 o'clock.
It Is estimated that over 5000 persons
yesterday toolt advantage of tho oppor
tunity to visit the fighting machine
which bears the nama of this state, and
which maJe. the run, now famous In his
tory, around the Horn to participate in
the" battle of Santiago in 1S93.
nld and young, they crowded the
decks of the battleship and It Ib safo
to lay that not a nook or cranny of
the big ship was overlooked by the
eager throngs who plied officers and
cmw with innumerable questions. The
crowds of people were handled over two
gangways, ona being for those arriving
and another for those who were leaving
the ship. The float placed alongside the
port gangway of tho Oregon was filled
from the time the first launch was al
lowed to land at 1:30 and continued so
until all were required to leave at 5
o'clock. Tire launches and other small
craft reaped a harvest and there was a
continuous stream of them from ship to
shore all afternoon.
Unfortunately some of the people who
visited the battleship went with the de
sire to leave with a souvenir of some
kind and as a result many small parts
of guns, machinery and other thlng3
order
disappeared so that It was necessary
for the officers of the Oregon to give
orders that a strict watch be kept to
prevent the vandalism.
Courtesies shown by officer and crew
to vlaitor were conspicuous and every
effort was made to explain part of the
ship both on the topside and below the
decks. Tha great 13-lnch guna proved
of unusual interest to the landsmen.

SEATTLE IS OUT TO
1
Potlatch Men Not Fighting
San Francisco Just for Ad
vertisement; 1913 Conven
tion Is Good for Several.
The only thing the only possible
thing that could have don It drowned
the buzz of political conversationalists
of Hello Bills at the Elks' grand lodge
headquarters at tha Multnomah hotel
today. There were several hundred of
them talking most ' ait ilay, and last
night, boosting some candidate for of
fice, rapping rivals, shouting tor some
prospective convention city, or euloglz
lag their own town.
Tho only possible thing was the ad
ministration band, made up of about 25
leather-lunged musicians who marched
into the hotel lobby, lour abreast and
playing loudly, to the front of various
incoming lodge delegations, which
trailed along in the rear. 4
But the oand was on the job only a
few times and as a result the poll
ticlans had by far the bettef of It.
Seattl Out to Win.
Seattle today definitely set at rest
all speculation as to why tha Potlatch
men announced their intention of cap
turing the 1S15 convention. They de
care they are not opposing San Fran
Cisco lor tho convention, merely for
the advertising auch a btep might yield.
Judge Hickman Moore, formerly mayor
of Seattle stated flatly that Seattle
really was In the race and that 400 more
Elks would soon reinforce the Seattle
contingent to Impress on the grand
lodge this fact.
The Seattle delegation has opened
headquarters in the Multnomah In fur
therance of their campaign.
"Seattle la certainly out for the 1815
convention. We served notice some
time ago that we would be in the field.
despite San Francisco," said Judge
Moore. "I do not believe tha grand
lodge In 1914 will do the unprecedented
thing and choose an exposition city for
the 1915 convention. We are going to
win."
"Fudge," broke In a Californlan stand
ing nearby. "Just you wait until the
San Franciscans get here and Seattle
can look for a real enjoyable time."
General Gordon, head of tho Atlanta
delegation called a meeting of the At-
lantans this afternoon to consider
whether Atlanta would go into the field
against Rochester for the 1913 conven
t'on or keep up Its campaign for the
1914 reunion the fiftieth anniversary
of the birth of the order. It was gen
erally believed that Atlanta would keep
up its present fight.
Three delegates from Louisville. Ky.,
arrived today and Immediately informed
Robert Frown, chief Justice of tho grand
forum, past grand exalted ruler and a
resident of Louisville as well, that
Louisville could be counted on making a
fight for the 1914 reunion against At
lanta, Baltimore and Cincinnati. The
Louisville lodge has $50,000 pledged al
ready toward a fund to entertain the
grand lodge, and declare that the con
ventlon Is thwirs, the moment the lnvl
tation is extended.

Otherwlsa there la no change in the
political situation, since Saturday. The
Superior, Wis., delegation wears a com.
blned grouch and smile. The delegation
came to Portland filled with fight, de
termined to elect Thomas Mills, their
fellow townsman, grand exalted ruler.
LThey engaged headquarters In the Mult
nomah, printed booklets, ribbons and
brought along thousands of buttons aud
hot air' only to find that Mills had no
opposition. They are glad he will be
chosen unanimously and sorry they
spent so much on useless campaigning.
BRIDGE OF GODS TO
BE PRESENTED TONIGHT
The first of the last two perform
ances of "The Bridge of the Gods,"
which la being reproduced specially for
the Elks' convention, will be given to
night on Multnomah Field, the sec
ond performance being set for Wednes
day.
A stage setting that has cost $25,000,
set off by hundreds of performers, con
tributes to making "The Bridge of the
Gods" one of the great successes of the
convention.
Amone the -most notable of the
scenes will be the eruption of Mt. Hood
as a volcano, and the consequent de
struction of the great stone arch whlci-
inuians aeciare once eireicnea across
the Columbia "the bridge of the gods."
The death of Chief Multnomah, fol
lowed by the impressive ceremony that
is reminiscent of the Norse the placing
of his body in the flaming death canoo
which passes over the waters, is one
of the most picturesque features of the
performance.
