Wool PritTS May Startle With ex
ports of American wool to foreign
countries continuing on a large scale
the domestic wool situation grows
more acute. The news has been con
firmed this week of large sales of
wool and wool byproducts for ship
ment to Germany, ana other foreign
countries are also active in the mar
ket. Coming at a time when South
America is the only free market for
clothing wools outside of this coun
try, this news has served to Increase
the anxiety of the manufacturers who
are now making ready to open their
Fall, 1915. lines.
It has been seml-offlclally an
nounced that when the fall prices are (
made, In the first week of January,
1915. the advances will be of a startl-j
lng character. The price of wool has
not only gone up, but tne dyestuffs
difficulty has affected the cost of
dyeing to a very large extent. Sever
al selling agents handling wool goods
cannot name future prices, as their
mills are not covered on raw wool
and are Indisposed to buy at current
high prices, at least until they see
how the trade is to order for another
season. . I
Last week some large purchases of
carpet wool were made from China
factories, one series of transactions
running up to 2,000,000 pounds. The
advancing values have forced carpet
manufacturers to advance their quo
tations to take effect after the first
of the year. The demand for wool
underwear, wool hosiery, sweaters and
blankets continues very steady for for
eign use. Portland Oregonlan.

CITY ENGINEER IS LA10
OFF FOR WINTER MONTHS
CITY COUNCIL TAKES ACTION
LAST NIGHT AS MATTER
OF ECONOMY.
As a matter of economy, City En
gineer Geary Kimbrell has been laid
off during the winter montha. The
council took this action last evening
pursuant to a recommendation made
several weeks ago by Mayor Dyer.
Councilman Cole made the motion
last evenrng. declaring that, while he
was opposed generally to laying off
a regular city employe, he believed
the condition of the city finances at
this time demands retrenchment
some place.
The funds now on hand will not any
more than pay the fixed charges and
salaries up to the time the city re
ceives ita first revenue from the
spring taxes, it was explained, and a
number of the council predicted that
it would be necessary to issue script
before March 1. The city attorney
gets 1125 a month.
The ordinance requiring Oie plac
ing of lights at each end of a street
obstruction or excavation waa passed
last evening. The lights must be
kept from sundown to sunrise and
must be visible 100 yards away. Vi
olation of the ordinance calls for a
fine not exceeding 325 or a Jail sen
tence not exceeding II days.
The ordinance deeding a part of
VIncewt -street to B. L. Burroughs &
Co. and the Farmers' Union Grain
Agency for 3400 was passed.
A drug store liquor license was
granted to Koeppen Bros. Announce
ment waa made that the brick for re
pairing the railroad crossing on East
Court street had arrived and the con
tract had been let but that the O-W.
R. & N. company wanted a little more
time on account of weather conditions.
NEHALEM FISHEIUlEX
WANT OPEN SEA SOX
NEHALEM, Ore., Dec. JO. A meet
ing of the fishermen of Nehalem. Bay
waa held here to formulate a plan
to have the closed season on salmon
removed. At present the 20 days
from November 20 to December 10
are closed for fishing in tha river and
bay. No other part of the county la
similarly affected. Tillamook Bay
has no closed season and the fisher
men there have thts 20 extra days of
fishing more than the local men.
Emil Larson, president of the asso
ciation, was appointed to take tha
matter up with Representative T. B.
Handley with the idea of having a
bill placed before the legislature to
relieve the situation.
Not only are the fishermen Injured
by the closed season, but the best
part of the fishing comes Just when,
the men cannot place their nets in
the river. Business men of the val
ley are working with the fishermen
and giving their their hearty sup
port. A strong resolution will be sent
to the legislature asking that the re
lief be granted.
The fishermen on the river ar
forced to go to considerable expense
for their gear; in fact, much mora
than those on Tillamook Bay, and
they have been unable to clear them
selves with the canneries or pay for
their nets during the last six seasons.
With 20 days taken out of the sea
son, the fishermen here are greatly
handicapped. They say they cannot
see why they should be stopped dur
ing a closed season when the fisher
men on other waters of the county
do not have to.
