To accommodate this exhibit it will be necessary to

When installed the exhibit will be much more ex

tonsidertd the best mining exhibit ever gotten to

Commercial Agent of Department of Commerce Submits
Report on Lumber Trade in China and Suggests Es
tablishment of Standard Grades and Price Lists,
Washington. Dec. 4. Criticism of the i
tnethoda of Oregon lumber deaiers in
Connection with the China trade is
made In a report from the commercial
agent of the department of commerce.
Franklin li. Smith. He declares there
has been too much manipulation or
grades, causing a feeling of distrust In
, the Chinese buyer that is difficult to
overcome.
As a remedy for this, Mr. Smith
suggests a standard China trade, from
r which no departures should be permit
ted by the manufacturers. Grades
;- Have been made to fit the price here-1
tofore, he eays, but this has been at
- the cost of unsettled confidence, and
- Chinese are now skeptical of the ability
. of shippers to furnish cargoes of the
; same general quality.
A standard price list for Chinese cus
tomers is another recommendation of
the report. Fluctuating prices have
- damaged business to the orient, and
while air. Smith complimented the trad
ing ability of the Chinese, he Is of
opinion that they will be better pleased
-With a fixed price for lumber.
Th report says that no serious effort
- lias been made to explain the qualities,
sand- uses of woods from the United
States, and reliable data has not been
placed, in the hands of Chinese engi
neers. "Municipal governments have r.ot
ben shown the value cf wood block
: paving." It is pointed out. "Architects
i know positively nothing of the superi
.: ority of American factory made doors,
sash, blinds, columns and finish.
"The opportunity for educational
work is good. A ttart should be made
-With a pamphlet or a series of pam

;- Preferably, the publication should be
Issued by the government, or should
at least bear the government's stamp

, "The one conclusion to be drawn

lumber manufacturers of the Pacific

CHAMBER GOES ON RECORD.
The following reaolution waa authorized by the dlree
tors of the Chamber of Commerce with reference to th
proposed basement sprinkler ordinance:
Whereas. There is now pending before the Couneil
of the City of Portland an ordinance requiring the
installation of sprinkler systems in the basements of
buildings within the fire limits of Portland, and
Whereas, wThe said proposed ordinance provides
for the installation of such sprinkler systems in all surh
buildings within three (3) years from the date of the
passage of the ordinance: and
Whereas, The cost of installing such basement
sprinkler systems In many of the older buildings within
the fire limits would be greatly disproportionate to the
present value of many such buddings.
Now, thcrViore. be it resolved. That the Portland
Chamber of Commerce recommends to the Council of

-:- Monday to Saturday
w-ays in which these subscriptions are
handled. In some cities there are
some national banks which make their
subscriptions officially and over their
own names. The absence In other
cities of the names of general banks
altogether, and on the other hand the
prevalence of private bankers as sub
scribers, suggests an indirect way of
achieving the same results. And in
one case there are no banks whatever,
but a strong list of Individual invest
ors." Coast States Not
Benefited by War
Holland, in tne Wall Street Journal,
says: "Some of these states have not
as yet been especially benefited by war
orders. For Instance, the Pacific coast
states. California, Oregon and Wash

able Irade impulses on account of the
war. Yet California, Oregon and Wash

writing not through the direct asso
ciation of any banks with it, but, in
stead, that of private bankers."

The Portland Flouring Mills has so
cured in addition to the Ollvebanu an
nounced In yesterday's Daily Journal,
the Norwegian steamer Hermes and
the British bark Celtlcburn; Strauss &
Co., had the charters to all thrVe ves
sels. .
Rates paid for the vessels exceed
filly figures reported in a re-charter
this season. The only rate comparine
with them Is the one paid by Kerr,
Gilford & Co. for the new steamer Pa
cific which they are loading on Puget
sound. LAck of vessels and Europe's
need of flour Is said to account for
the high prices.
The Hermes was 'disposed of 135
shillings. She was taken at 95 shill
ing's some months ago and represents
a profit to Strauss & Co. of about
180,000.
