TUBER
E
IS REAL AND CRY IS
Potato Men, Both Growers and
Handlers, Now Ask That Quar
antine Be Placed Against Cali
fornia for the Good of Industry.
By Hyman II. Cohen.
There la an lnalatent call from Tsrlon In
terests of the Pacific northwest fjr tbe taking
of immediate steps to abut off entirely im
portation of California potatoes.
The finding of so much tuber moth stock
here of late In tbe ahlpmenta of potatoes from
various California diatrlct. has caused al
most the entire trade to demand restrictive
meaenree.
Both Oregon and Washington atate authori
ties are being called upon to protect the pot
to Industries of tbe Pacific northwest. Idaho
haa already taken a btwid in the matter and
no further ahlpmenta from California will be
allowed to enter that state. Various Intereits
cow expresa tbe opinion that decisive action
should be taken at once by Oregon and Wash
ington because unless all act together, the
protection afforded the lnauatrr would not be
complete.
That tuber moth haa not already ruined the
potato Industries of Oregon, Idaho, and Wasb
li.gton it mere matter of luck and not due
to any apeclal precautlona taken by the au
thorities. The latter have done their duty
as far aa lies in their power, but It Is Im
possible for tbem to examine every potato
aUpped In from tbe south, or even every sack.
I nlrss the former Is done some of tbe tuber
moth stock Is likely to slip through the lines
and the Industry placed In great danger.

Speculators Think !
Crisis Is Passed
New Tort, June 21. (I. H. 8 Standard 1
securities clear across tha board were strong
st tfe opening of the stock exchange today.
Trading aa a whole waa leu active than
yesterday la the first hour, bat price were
decidedly firm. Many of the most prominent
specula tore took the atand that tbe Mexican
chock la over. On tbla assumption there waa
good slxed buying, especially la some of the
leading raila.
The assertion of labor leader that strike
talk will be - dropped In case of war with
Mexico will tend to offset to a great extent
whatever m effect inch a crlsia would have
on the raila. In the opening hour New Tork
Central went to 105 H, Reading 103, and
Rock Island to 22. Tbe latter slock waa un
usually active.
Both Crucible and Steel common were brtal
and higher, the latter going t 83 on first
aalea.
. Butte A Superior opened 1 point np and,
with Inspiration, led an active metal market.
Continental Can bad an unusually heavy
movement and went to 102 at first, from an
opening at 100, which waa 4 points up. Mexi
can Petroleum opened at 984 and advanced
aligbtly.
