Blaisdcll, auditor for the O -W. R. & N.
The street car company was not repre
sented, and, according to President Far.
roll, will have to make arrangements
with the, city for use of the upper span.
"We have said to the city, 'Go ahead
and use the upper span, beginning Au
gust 10, and we shall charge you rental
on the basis of the valuation'" of the
span, something which we will settle
later,' " said President Farrell this aft
ernoon, tn explaining the outeome of
the conference. "And that Is about all
there Is to it. The company values the
upper span at something under $8i)0,Q0Q,
arid It has already beeji aietd tbut the
city shall pay tin annual rental of 6 per
cent on the valuation of the span.
And for that sum we shall undertake
to pay the taxes, the cost of operation
and tlie expenses of keeping the struc
ture In condition. Which means that
we really will get about 8 per cent on
the money invested In the upper spun.
"The people are getting a mighty goifd
bargain. TheyVare asked to pay only
5 per tit on l(s than $ iOO.OOu and In
return ur given the use of a bridge
that Is costing ds between $1,700,000 a:ul
$1,800,000 to buiW. In other words, they
are getting a bridge for about one half
the cost of operating- tb'i new Broadway
bridge and.iU'e relieved of all the respon
sibilities in connection with Its operation
and upkeep.
"At the conference today Mayqr Rush
light agreed to write a letter to us em
bodying all the points we agreed upon
today, it will be our guarantee Unit
the city will, pay rent from the date the
bridge is opened on the valuation that
our engineers and thelr's shall arrive at
later."

The failure of the rice crop in Slam,
which has already boosted the price of
that product to a considerable extent in
Japan, is likely to have a bull effect
hereafter on the price of wheat at Pa
cific northwest points
Wiille the trade here Is still Inclined
to the bear side, because everyone wants
to buy, Indications point to a reversal of
opinion when one big interest breaks
away from the crowd that is short.
The Orient is asking for more flour
and moW wheat is likely too there as
a result of the extreme prire for rice.
The wheat and flour trade there Is al
ways gauged bv the price of rice. If the
latter product Is low there Is less de
mand for wheat and flour, and then at
a low price, while high prices and 0
heavy demand comes u a result of tho
advanced cost of rice.
Notwithstanding this ronditlon of af

tha action of tlie provisional national '

the indorsement of this ruling by . the .

As the situation lines up todsyi
Florida is without representation In the

from a southern state has been seated. (
The rules committee la prepared, to re

at the last previous election the basts
for representation in future conventions.
It provides that hereafter one delegate
be opportioned for each 10,000 Progres
siva vote polled. Thus, in strong pro
gressive states, the n,w party will he
able to dictate the state's policies.
When the convention assembled, ftt
noon today, all the committees except
that on resolutions wer ready to rer

meetings of the committee ars open
gnd everyone with a grievance is being
given a hearing.
It was the hope of the leader! that
the progressive platform would be brief,
but it seems certain today that It Will

undoubtedly will urge scientific revision
of the tariff, Roosevelt's plan for regu

also will advocate a strong army and
navy, judicial, reforms and laws every
where for making the rule of the peo
ple easier. The committee la expected :
to confer with Colonel Roosevelt to
night, by which time the document will
be completed.
