The bark was taken by Strauss & Co., and will be loaded here by the Northern Grain & Warehouse' company, north west representatives. The charter price is said to be 32.S. The vessel Is ex pected to take both wheat and barley to the United Kingdom ror orders. With terminals again very badly congested, the market for wneat is somewhat firmer in the interior ihan at tidewater. Some of the local1 ex porters are actually selling wheat here and repurchasing in the country at higher prices for later delivery. Yes terday there were 2J0 cars of wheat re ceived here and a big movement to tidewater is expected during the next few. days. Country holders are firmer in their views regarding the price of wheat and although present values are above an export basis, there seems to be plenty of dealers in the field for sup plies in anticipation of higher prices later. The sale of a ship yesterday on the London market-at the highest price of the season Indicated this.

PREMIUM RECEIVED FOR BRIDGE BONDS GODD BUSINESS SIGN (Continued from Page OneJ that the sale of $250,000 interstate bridge bonds yesterday at $253,376 Is a forecast of an even more eager mar ket when we offer another block of the bonds in about six months," said Rufus C. Holman, Chairman of the county commission. . "We ought to get work started very soon and keep It going so that work will be provided for a large number of people. I predict that in Portland, as well as throughout the country, will be speedily felt a stimulus to business that will benefit every line of busi ness." Prediction Xs Made. Such a prediction seems in an ex. eel lent way of speedy realization. Bankers and business men are encour aged because of the fact that since cotton has been declared non-contraband cotton shipments alone will total 4,000,000. Ambassador Girard has stated that the German government and Austria will take 75,000 bales. In the beginning the war stopped cot ton exportation s. The shipment of foodstuffs from American ports last September were three times the total shipments as In September of 1913, according to re port of the federal treasury depart ment. The gain was $28,000,000. Ex ports are running $5,000,000 a day and for November will be about $170, 000,000. The. last four weeks for which records are complete show ship ments of $12,000,000 more exports out of New York than the corresponding four weeks of the previous year. VICTORIA CROSS FOR ARTILLERYMEN WHO STOOD OFF BATTERY (Continued from Page One.) nlng of the allies' offensive, the weary warriors were told to snatch a few hours' rest under the protection' of a French cavalry force. They were to have been on the move again by 4 m., but owing to the cutting of telegraph wires, no orders reached them, and without their knowledge, the French cavalry retired under cover of the fog. When this fog cleared the battery was suddenly subjected to a terrific fire from a ridge the British had sup posed was still occupied by the French. Tight With Oun Apieoe. TJnder Captain Bradbury's orders, the British gunners unllmbered, but could bring only three of their six guns into action. The men who were not . killed or wounded In the first few minutes managed them. One by one they put out of action nine of the 10 field guns the Germans were using against them. By this time one or the three Brit ish guns had also been put out of action, and only three men remained to man them. They accordingly de voted themselves entirely to a single gun, and with a gun apiece, tne Ger mans and British continued to fight until a rescuing cavalry detachment found them still crouching behind their gun shield and relieved them.
