HOUR HIT IS PUT ON DEBUTE Senators falking on Treaty Must Confine Their Time To 60 Minutes BEER 'BILL TO FRONT Conference Report to Be Disposed of Before Ad journment of Session WASHINGTON, .Sept 30. An agreement was reached by the senate late today to impose a de bate time limit of one hour on cach.sentor in consideration of the j peace treaties with Germany, Aus tria and Hungary oeginnmg Oc tober 14 in order to expidita a vote on ratification. Under the agreement it ts expected Out the. vote will be reached October 14 or 15. The original plan for an agree ment to vote October 14 was abandoned for Senator Lodge, the Republican leader, and Senator Underwood, the Democratic lead er, and found that unanimous con sent would not be given for a spe. cific day on which to take Ilnal action. ' Side Talk Cut Short Leaders tonight ; expressed the opinion that the debate would not be protracted after the h our rule goes into effect. The agreement also provides that the senators shall be limited to 10 minutes for consideration of reservations. The voting agreement was held up temporarily and almost reject ed today by managers of the anti beer bill who, fearing this meas ure might be sidetracked, forced Senator Lodge to delay presenting tho agreement, i 1 Speaking later for the prohibi tion group,, however, Senator Ster ling, republican,! South Dakota, said his fears, for the anti-beer measure had proved unfounded. Dry Bill Pushed "In fact, in conference with Re publican leaders," he said, "1 have secured an even moro dis tinct and explicit understanding that the anti-beer bill will be tak en up and that there will be no adjournment -of this sesaion ol congress until the conference re port on the prohibition measure js disposed of." Senator Reed, Democrat, Miss ouri, interjected that he, and other opponents of the anti-beer bill, were not to be bound by Mr. Sterling's understanding with the Republican leaders. i. Enlarged Receipt Reports Cause Wheat to Decline CHICAGO, Sept. , 3 .-Predictions of enlarged receipts in 4he northwest nxt week had a good dsal to do with making wheat prices decline today. The market closed heavy, 1 3-4 to 2 3-4 net lower, with December 11.20 1-2 to 1.20 3-4 and May i.25 1-2- to 1.2 3-4. Corn. lost 3-8 to 1 1-2. and oats. 1-4 to 3-4. In prov.s ion8. the outcome varied jfrom 15 cents decline to 10 cents advance. - It was 6ad that consjignmsnt notices of wheat due to "arive at northwestern terminals were of greater volume than for any pre vioustime this season. From this cirmustance, bears drew . the . in ference that spring wheat farm ers were showing a disposition to market their. surplus without de lay, notwithstanding government finance available to carry the grain If so desired. The market scored - a rally after midday on account, bf covering by shorts, but when demand from this source had been satisfied, values weaken ed again, and closed near the bot tom level of the session. ' Corn and oats, like wheat were without any aggressive , EUpport, September delivery of corn fell to the lowest price in 18 years. ( Higher quotations on hogs gave some firmness to proyisions. Los Angeles Prosecutor Yet Under Investigation Si los ANGELES, Sept. 30. The Los Ajigeles county ferand jury filed in the court of Superior Judge Sydney N. Reeve late to day a partial report following three months of investigation in to conduct of affairs in the of fice of District Attorney Thomas Lee Wool wino. The report urges that "ivecessary steps be taken by the ' attorney general to employ special counsel to assist the grand jury to continue its inves tigations" No facts concerning the inves tigation and no information con cerning any charges was disclos ed. The action was the outcome of several months invest igatint; work by a special committee of the grand Jury. Unauthorized re norts concerning which were re cently published here. September Also is Good ; Month for Wedding Bells The young man's fancy is turn ing to love not only in June, but hso In September, according to statistics in the county clerk's of fice, where marriage licenses are Issued. While SI licenses were is sued last June, the month of Sep tember run it a close second with a recor,d of 58 licenses issued. Hut it was not always so for September, showing that things are changing as far as the secur Ing of marriage licenses la con cerned. Just , after this country went intp, war, with prospects of young then going away, there were only 22 licenses issued dur ing September of il 91 7. The fol lowing year, when the young men of tho country wero really in tho serricev there were. onlxJt7.mac. riage licenses issued during tbe month. By September of 19l9, a few of the boys had returned, and that year business at the marriage IT. cense bureau picked up as a total of 39 were issued. By September of 1920 the bo were all home, almost every one Was settled in the regular routine of life, and that month 5S licen ses were issued. And now with the September 1921 record rn the past, the tota of 58 marriage licenses Issued dr.nng the month is conclusive proof that September is a close rival with June as a month for mating.

STOCK MARKET i FORFEITS GH Leaders' React One to Three PointsProminent is sues Involved NEW, YORK, Sept. 30. The stock market today forfeited, a considerable part of its recent gain, leaders reacting 1 to? 3 points to profit taking, renewal of short comitments and tighter mo ney rates. Diminished dealings again cen tered In the I more prominent is sues comprising the oil, steed and equipment and metail groups. Motors and subsidiaries and. food specialties trailed along at' more moderate fluctuations. Ralls were the only issues, to maintain a semblance of firmness, being sustained largely by the fur ther publication of favorable, earn ings. Lehigh Valley was most ac tioe at a net gain of . almost 3 points in connection with the. pros pective segregation of the com pany's coal j properties. The plan of the New York tran sit company for the merger of all local tractions had little effect on these issues until the final hour, when Brooklyn Rapid Transit is sues were under marked pressure. In the general list reactions were most severe in Mexican petroleum, Baldwin Locomotive, Studebaker and American sugar, sales, 450, 000 shares. Call loans rose from the open ing rate of five percent to 5 at midday .and advanced to six percent mainly on belated borrow ing in the final hour. Time rates were unchanged, but some loans extending to the close of the year were made at slight concessions, when backed by high grade col lateral, s. British, French and Belgian exchanges strengthened in res ponse' to higher quotations from London, the German rate also making further recovery from its recent collapse. Italian bills con tinued their , downward course, however, the lire declining to a fraction under four cents. Trading in liberty and victory issues again featured the bond market, but no new records were made. Foreign issues were lower, especially French and Belgian government flotations. Total sales, par value, aggregated $16, 650,000. William A. Morand of Boring Elected President and National Dele ate At a meeting of postmasters held in Salem yesterdajy, William A.
