Apple Trade Shows
Effect of Weather
In Eastern Centers
Weather conditions are somewhat against the
aale of Northwest apple at leading eastern
consuming centers and for that reason not only
ha recent trade been on a more moderate scale
generally, but the price list ia fractionally re
duced for moat offering.
Locally the trend of tha trade continues
favorable, with prices held intact. Business ia
showing a slight improvement in the better
lurtca.8 and varieties, but the bulk ol the trade
remains in the moderate priced stock.

Early Demand Is
Curtailed; Stocks
Are Less Active
New York. Nov. 19. (I. N. 8.1 The stock
market pursued its usual course of showing a
strong tone at the opening today when many
of the traders took the buying side in the
exDectation of some developments causing fur
ther advances during the day. Aftet the first
few minutes thia demand slackened and prices
of a number of issues yielded slightly but
fluctustions were extremely narrow nd the
trading was generally without importance.
There was continued accumulation of Sinclair
Oil which haa been in persistent demand for
some time in connection with the improvement
in the refining and distributing plants. This
stock was in supply thia morning and made a
gain.
Industrial Alcohol was one of the most rtlve
features and moved up. Steel common made a
gain. Baldwin waa another strong feature and
advanced. Marina preferred yielded.
The majority of active issue at the end of tha
first 16 minutes showed gain ranging from Vfc
to over 1 point.
The market maintained a strong tone during
the greater part of the forenoon. Many issues
showed gains of from 1 to 2 points. Tobacco
Products moved up. while Mexican Petroleum,
after selling down, rallied again.
Steel common moved up over 1 point, and
upturn of about the utne amount were made
in the other steel issues. Southern Pacific was
the moat active of the railroad issues.
The copper stocks were steady, Krgyiecott
showing the largest dvnce.

That there b no likelihood at thia time of
any boosting tof the price of millstuffs is indi
cated ,.by the following report sent to the mill
by Max II. Houser, zonal agent of the cereal
division of the Food Administration Grain cor
poration: "There has come to our attention a current
rumor to the effect that mill feed price is to
be advanced. This is not founded on fact.
"Prices as designated in fair price schedule
are to be continued on present basis, with the
exception of local corrections where thia may
be found necesrary.
"It has also been decided that rule M. S. 6,
requiring the making of only one grade of
flour, will also be continued for the present.
By M. H. HOUSER."
Regarding contract for substitutes and mixed
flour. Mr. Houser advises:
"It haa been reported that some buyers
have taken the position that the withdrawal of
the substitution program gave them the. right
to cancel contracts, or to refuse to accept de
liveries of shipments already made. The food
administration has not in any way authorized
cancellation of contract or refusals to accept de
liveries. "In order to bring about the smallest possible
economy loss, however, it is auggeated that nulla
get in touch, preferably by wire. wiUi their
customers, and where the bnyer does not desire
to take deliveriea of contracts, the mill should
secure written uthority from the buyer to tell
the commodities covered by hi contract for
account of the buyer. The grain corporation
will then accept carload shipment of commod
ities covered by such contract in export sacks
at the prices to be named by the Food Admin
istration Grain corporation, or at the contract
price if such pries is lower than the stipulated
lrice. The mill, in securing authority to sell
for account of buyer, should fecure an agree
ment on the part of the buyer to pay to the
mill any loss of the difference between the con
tract price and the price at which the mill may
sell to the Food Administration Grain corpora
tion. "In accounting deliveries of commodities cov
ered by any such contracts, it will, of course,
be necessary to furnish a sworn copy of such
contracts, and such other proofs of contract
as may be required."
lon Cohen of Pendleton reports that the
winter -wheat acreage of Umatilla county is very
heavy and that" the present crop prospects are
the best that banner section has known for at
least 10 year.

througrh newepapeirs which were amuf
frlod in by an A 1 satin guard who waa
an allied sympathiser," eald Drew.
s Discipline Felt to Relax
'"The German doctors, nursea and
guards were all right, but they were
strict. We felt a change in the rlftd
rtbs of the discipline Saturday. On
Monday, the eleventh, the Bavarian.
on guard at the hospital threw down
their arms. They were replaced by old
men, many of whom carried red flapa.
These self-etyled 'soldlera. of the repub
lic" did not salute the officers. They
fraternized with the prisoners and lib
erated peveral of them.
"The Germans who had discarded thtfir
weapons put on Red Cross bands and
talked fearfully of the red flag dem
onstrations In the streets. The doctors
put on civilian clothes. They and the
r.urses stayed until sortie French doc
tors arrived.
"In the meantime none of the guards
prevented us from walking about Mttx.
There was a strange atmosphere.
Crowds gathered and told of their
French sympathies, boldly wearing the
tricolor.
Tear Dowa German SIgas
"As the German regiments marched
cut of the city the soldiers mingled with
the crowds, assuring the civilians they
had no ill-feeling toward them and sa
luting many of the municipal officials.
"The shopkeepers immediately cot
busy and tore down German signs, re
placing them with French. Their sup
plies were meager, but good, particu
larly the clothes.
"A thousand Alsatians who deserted
from the German army donned civilian
clothes and sought jobs running trams
and clerking In stores.
"After Monday the streets were
brightly lighted every night. There
v ere many French and a few American
fiags - dftpaayed. The streets were
crowded with happy men, women and
children, but there were no wild dem
onstrations. Dine With the Mayor
"We received numerous invitations to
dinners and teas. We accepted one
rrom the mayor, who heartily enter
tained Wakefield, two French officers
and myself in honor of the city's lib
eration. His wif had made French,
Eritish and American flags with her
own hands. These were placed over the
door. Tha mayor then appointed the
four as a sort of reception committee
and we stood under the flags shaking
hands with a great number of citizens
who called to pay their respects. The
meal and the cigars were splendid.
"The mayor already is organising a
delegation of the most prominent cit
izens of the city to go to America and
thank the United States for its help
in rescuing Alsace-Lorraine.
"We returned to the hospital in the
mayor s car. It was the only one in !
Metz which had not been commnn- ,
deered by the Boches to carry off th
families of the officers toward the
Rhine.
German Exhibit 'o Hate
"The next day we decided to re-
tur. despite my wounded arm. We 1
had no difficulty making our way out i
of the city and did not see a single
German on our 'way to Nancy. Every I
village we passed through, on both
sides of tha line, was decorated with
French and American flags. The na
tives were all happy and were show
ing their gratitude by feeding refu
gees and liberated war prisoners."
Drew said that German officers and
soldiers readily admit their defeat, but
ahow no particular hate and declare
they are hopeful of a permanent peace. ;

American lines they said that the food

only of black bread, occasional potatoes,

The r.vlators were billeted In a small

dirty. There was no heat and no bedding.
The Germans the aviators talked to
were all Indignant because none of the
kaiser's six sons wore wound stripes.
All the German soldiers with whom they
talked were tired of the war arid wished
to go to the United States, the dispatch
says.
As the aviators were released the
Germans were hastily retreating. Guns

Germans. Civilian property, including
