erally quoted where deliver lea are made In tbe
dir. f 1
Situation i Improved generally since tbe
"new grading rules of the Portland organisa
tion were put into effect. "All along there has
been, a call for better eggs, but owing to the
(act that this city was being used as a dump
ing ground for inferior stock while the best
quality was sent elsewhere, tbe trade was
unable to secure Its requirements except at
touch heavier expense.

bers of tbe egg assorts tlou, therefore tbe form
er will likely be forced to fall in with the
others In buying on the basis of candled qual

eral call, there are cleanupa. reported on No.

of dirty color and Dot quite as fancy as No.

ORANGE PRICES JUMTING

; SHOW A BETTER
TONE LOCALLY
Imnroeement la showing In the course nf
the bide and leather market. - Prices are ' be
ing held firmer here and altboogh Tallica are
showing practically no change, the demand
la far keener than for some time past.
With tbe price of bides at tbe bigheot
mark on record in the east there was op to
this time some disposition among leather
buyers to withhold their business In anticipa
tion of an easier feeling. When it became
apparent that the market would not go lower,
tbe orders for leather began to come forward.
A Boston mail advice say a regarding the
improved sentiment: '
-Packer bides are today bringing 2t4c
a ponnd more than at this time last year.
With tbe best stock up around 25c, rhe strength
of the market. In view of tbe comparative
qnlet in leather and shoes, ban only one ex
planation and tbat is a scarcity. The coun
try for i long time has failed to produce
more than half the hides necessary, for the
nation's needs, and with tbe European supply,
largely cut off while the war lasts. It con
not be said that the signs point to any lp
medlate recession in prices. In the final
analysis It is the cost of bides that determines
the price of leather, and it Is hard to see
how the one can advance without eventually
carrying up tbe other.
"There is a steady If very fcradaal increase
in business in shoes and leather and yitlment
continues to grow more cheerful as to the
future. : Shoe distributors, having been pretty
conservative In their Initial orders for tliu
present season, now find it necessary to call
on tbe manufacturers for additional supplies.
The question of styles, wbtctr recently was so
perplexing to tbe entire trade, appears to be
definitely settled and. as a result, there are
few manufacturers who sre not better off In
the matter of fall and winter orders than they
were a short time ago. Hides are hOTerluc
about tbe highest levels in history and con
sequently there seems to be little likelihood of
lower prices for either leather tr shoes in the
near future. This might also be advanced as a
cause for the Increase In orders for shoes for
fall and winter.
"The shoe and leather Industry is by no
means out of the woods yet, because curtail
ment In the outpnt of shoes did not come
as quickly aa did tbe decline in the demand
and current supnlies are rather large, while
cases still come to light of manufacturers who
overbought during tbe scare last Auguftt,
brought on by tbe war, ana wno. oecauxe 01
the dullness in tbe domestic demand for shoes,
have not yet used up all tbe stock they
bought. Stocks of shoes, however, are large
only In a relative sense, nor are many manu
facturers ao wen stocked wun icauier mui
they would not have to buy in the event of
fresh orders for shoes. It would not take
n.nch" sctivitv to make present stock of shoes
and leather look insignificant and, business lu
these lines csnnot long remain quiet with
other Industries Improving."
son and prices are being forced lower. While
some extra select Mississippi stock has been
sold as high as $1.50 a crate, average stock is
selling at Sluxou-ao. aiercta oiieriugs at
75c fl for peach boxes.

WOOL GROWERS ARE
SAID TO; BE FORCED
TO SELL FLEECES
Complaints Prom Interior of the
State Indicate That . Rankers
Want to Close - Up Accounts
Quality Price Varies.
While extrene prices are feeing paid In snme
instances for wool, complaints are coming from
various sections of tbe interior that bankers
arc really forcing growers to let go of their
aupplies at tbe price offered by buyers, be
cause tbe?' went to close up accounts for the
season as quickly a possible, i
It Is stated that while uiie or two influen
tial growers - are able to secure what their
fleece is really worth, others are really com
pelled by their financial backers to accept
tu rn 2 to 4c a pound le fur similar quality.
Gruwers sre showling far less dispoeltino to
sell than a few dys e- With tbe more
free offerings, buyers have 'been inclined to
pay exceptional values in isolated lustsnces
only, making up for this by purchasing the
bulk of the stock UoloW tbU basis.
Wool markets continue to show the etrong
est toue of the season at eastern points. Coast
sales of fine wools aire hard to ck because
of the fact that there are: few mills here to
accept such offerings. Dealera are therefore
compelled to operate more extensively among
extern mills.
Porpign wool markets are showing but lit
tle change for recent days. At mowt points
ubroud wools ure actually selling higher than
offerings from tbe same points are selling at
in this country. This is taken to indicate
tbat tbe market is artificial at home and that
bearish interests are going the limit in their
efforts to break the backbone of northwest
producers.
Race Is on For
Fruit Tonnage' in
Washington State
Wenatchee. Wash., June 21. The race for
frnit tonnage in the Wcnatchee-North dis

Valley Fruit Growers' association. Brewster.
Bridgeport and half of Pateros have entrusted
their fruit with the Northwestern Fruit Ex
change. The other half of Pateros tonnage, all
of which is in the Methow valley, went to the
association. Brewsder will have 200 carloads,
Methow 00 and Faiteros-Brid (report (the por
tion signed with the Exchange) 00. The Dis
tributors are quite sure of Chelan. The Wen
atchee Produce company was awarded the 40
carloads of Wlnesap. Entiat has not signed
up, but the major jwrtion of the growers are
reported to have signed up with the asso
ciation. The tonnage is estimated at 400 cars.
The association is hallding a warehouse at
Entiat.
Nearlv all of Peshastin and a third of Cash
mere are tied up with the Exchange. Monitor
anu Wenatchee growers are still ou me ieu.
They are inclined to wait as long, as possible
for cash buvcrs. Malaga voted' Us 60,000

well known commission firm, but It nas con
tracted with tbe Malaga unit to handle the

While some of tbe grain exporters with
high priced ships on their hands have en
deavored to force tbe price of . wheat down' to
iturmal new crop basis, millers are not fol
lowing their declines- by placing the price of
flonr on the same basis.
This would Indicate at the moment that mill
er are generally taking little stock In the
desires of ths speculative exporters to bring
the wheat price to the low level. ; Then there
is another real good reason why millers are
not inclined to be hasty about putting flour
down. Practically all their product now on
hand cost them on the basis of better than
$1 a bushel for wheat.
Strenuous efforts are being made on tbe
pert of bag interests to force artificial strength
into the situation. With practically all the
required bags en route to tbe coast," Import
ers are trying to scare growers itito paying
more money by alleging that shipments will be
too. late for early harvest. This la considered
Improbable at the moment.

Lack of Interest
By Foreigners Has
Depressing Effect
Chicago, J dne 21. (I. N. S.) Wheat closed
34c loer.
Prices In tbe pit at tbe opening today re
ceived a set-back, dne to a general ' selling
movement.
Wheat values opened e to lc lower,
while corn started with a decline of to e.
pats were down at the outset, as were pro
Visions. Tbe early decline was checked midway in the
trading on liberal buying of July and Sep
tember wheat. At noon tbe advance was lost.
The trading was largely domestic. The im
porting countries are showing no great amount
of interest in the new American wheat op
tions. This has been the controlling influence
in American wheat markets.
Indications are for more settled weather
over the corn belt. The decline this morn
ing was due to this factor and the pressing of
the 'Argentine offerings. Oats were dull. Pro
visions were weak.

Mexican cattle are coming to Portland be
cause of the fact that this market is the. best
on the coast, quality considered. Tbe Hearst
estate had 10 loads in from Latbrop, Cal.,
where they were fed en route from Mexico.
While the local market for cattle has been
somewhat depressed of late, the trend of the
trade here has been even better than at com
petitive centers, especially for ordinary qual
ity offerings.
Total run of cattle in the North Portland
yards over Sunday was somewhat less than
last week, the aggregate being 789 head com
pared -with 1207 last Monday and 1176 bead
for this same day a year ago.'
It was only the smaller supply than ex
pected that kept the market from showing
losses for the day.
Cattle market conditions in the eastern
trade are beginning to show returning strength
and at some points advances were forced in
values.

Select steers $7.15(7.33

Market for bogs was under pressure " from
the opening of the week's trade at North
Portland this morning. First of all there wn
a rather liberal supply, aTThough the run was
not quite as beavy as last Monday. Totals
over Sunday were 2611 head compared with
2630 last Monday and 1932 head this same day
a year ago.
Killers were inclined to ait tight on the
price lid at the opening of the trade and
were offering around $7.75 for good stuff.
Strength was shown for bogs at eastern
points today and price advances were gen
eral. - i

THACHER DECLARES
HE HAS CLUE TO MAN i
WHO KILLED FAMILY
Man Once ; Suspected of. Hill
)Murder( Is Being Sought
Again, ;.
GENERAL BUSINESS NEWS
.- Acting upon suggestions advanced
by George A. Thacher,'. criminologist,
tha police are today searching for -a
rnan who has long been suspected of
implication ip the vVilllam Hilt family
murder of June 8, 1911. as the possible
perpetrator of that crime. ' !
- -The Hill family, father, mother, son
and daughter, was murdered aa the
members slept in thejr beds, their
heads being crushed in with an ax.
The slayer was never, apprehended,
although many suspects have been ar
rested .. , - j
Thacher says he has secured infor
mation leading him to cbnnect the man
with the Hill crime. . t
Thacher, accompanied bya Mr. Me
Kenny, Detectives Price and Mallett
and Patrolmen Miller and WeUbropk,
spent the day yesterday in searching
for him. j
The suspect was arrested just four
years ago today by Archie Leonard,
then deputy , sheriff under Sheriff
Stevens, as one of the, numerous 'sus
pects in the Hill murder case. He
was rowing on a raft in tbe lake just
east of the Oaks when 'arrested. Sub
sequently he was committed to the
state Insane asylum, but was released
a year later.
Thacher attracted some attention! in
March, when he declared that he had
secured a confession from Alexander
G. Siercks, an inmate of the state
asylum, that he, instead of John Ar
thur Pender, had committed the- Wehr
mann murders at Scappoose. Siercks'
confession was never substantiated,
and in many ways it was proved false
by the state officials.

Western Roads Have
Few Defective Oars
TJnion Pacific Has Beoord of 1.1 Pet
Cent. O-W. Xt. ft S. Has Only 1.8,
Southern Pacifio 2.4.
Among the nine railroads of the
United States having the smallest per
centage of defective cars for the year
ending June, 1914, the Union Pacific
showed the best record, according to a
report of the Interstate Commerce
commission covering car inspections.
It8 percentage of defects was but 1.1.
The O-W. R. & N. is among the nine,
with a percentage of 1.8. The pre
ponderance of the 'western roads in
this record is noticeable.
The Southern -Pacific, also among
the nine, had a percentage of 2.4 and
the Denver & Rio Grande's percentage
The' lines west of the Mississippi
river made the best showing of all the
roads,, not one of those reported upon
being in excess of 7 per cent. The
southern lines appeared to be in poor
est condition, one road having had 13.4
per cent of defective cars

It Pays to JL&wrtla. : :-fyr :1;
One reason why more bituilthic pave
ment was selected for .the. Multnomah
highways tast week t was simply be
cause! the public was better acquainted
with its good points through constant
advertising; than the others, in the
opinion - of j advertising men. Where
other); types , of pavement, claimed to
be equal to any, have been 'spasmodic
ally advertised, the bituilthic people
have maintained a three-inch dispUiy
advertisemerft in the newspapers, run
ning j every other day, for six years.
The ads were written by the Frederick
Hyskell &f Son Advertising Agency.
These . advertisements, . Hyskell de
clares, awakened a general demand by
the public :for bituilthic.
"Advertising. . properly done In the
right! publicity channels, properly co
ordinated, with selling plans, kept up
and I backed up, never failed," said
Hyskell. , ,'
San Francisco Business Good.
T. J. Mullin, advertising manager of
The. Journal, was interviewed by a
member of the local staff on his three
weeks' visit in San Francisco. Here Is
what he said: i
"The attendance at the exposition
has average 40000 dally. Hotels and
business houses are anticipating' a big
attendance from now on. With th
opening of the Italian building the ex
position is at last complete. It offers
a comprehensive fund of varlod instruc
tion to fit the needs of anyone.
"The majority of San Francisco mer
chants feel thr.t the retail business is
ahead of last year's although they do
not know how much of the increase
should be attributed to the fair.
"Business in California, as compared
to Oregon, is somewhat better, but
basically Oregon is in better condition,
due to the fact that in Oregon our peo
'ple conserve money moro thon do Cll
fornians." Walk-Orer Shoes Win.

est possible award, the grand prize, at
