Postmaster General to Make Recom mendations In Report. Philadelphia. Pa.. Oct. 29. Post master General von L. Meyer, at a din ner at the Union League club last niuht. made an address in which he called attention to recommendations which he purposes making in his an nual report for the consideration of the nest congress. On the question ot par eels post he said: "I shall recommend the same rate 12 cents a nound. and the same limit of weight for parcels, whether intended for points in this country or abroad which means a reduction of four cents a pound and increase in the maximum weight to eleven pounds.' Taking up the rural parcels post ques tion he said: "I shall recommend a parcels post evstem on the rural delivery routes, special rate to be charged on packages for delivery from the distributing omces of the rural route, or if mailed by patron of any rural route for delivery to a patron on the same route cr at the distributing office of said route. The rate would be five cents for the first pound and two cents for each additiona nound. ud to eleven pounds. This would be a great boon for the farmers Regarding postal savings banks, the postmaster general said: "As an evidence that it is not the de sire of the government to compete with the private savings banks in obtaining deposits of the people, I shall advocate a rate of interest of 2 per cent per an num, or 1 per cent semi-annually and a limit of $500, not more tnan $250 to be deposited in any one year. My own belief is that far from its being a detri ment to the established banks, it would be in the end an advantage. Now, in order to get this money back into the channels of trade, I purpose to ask con gress for authority to.place the savings in the National banks." DEVELOPS A NEW GRAPE.

California Scientist Believes He Has Variety Surpossing the Tokay. Stockton, Cal., Oct. 29. An entirely new kind of grape is being developed at the government experimental station near Lodi, and Professor H. C. Hus- mann is of the opinion that it will re suit in a crape that will excel the famous Flame Tokay, which has given Lodi so much fame. The new variety is somewhat similar to the Tokay in texture and color, but is impervious to the rain, is mudh firmer and can be shipped longer distances without dam age. It apears to be a cross between a Tokay and Farerra and is of an im proved flavor. If properly developed it is expected to become a most profitable variety. Professor Husmann is due to arrive in Lodi this week and he intends to set out about 30 varieties of grapes, five different kinds of each variety, for ex perimental purposes. Already 130 va rieties of grapes are being grown at the station, and it is believed that the vineyard will receive great benefits from the experiments being made at the station. Additional apparatus is to be installed at the plant in the way of thermometers and records of tempera tures will be made so as to make com parisons with grape growing points in France, Spain, Italy and South Africa NEWS ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST FROM THE STATE OF OREGON HIS MEMORY REFRESHED. MONEY IN CRANBERRY MARSH. Coos Crop Bay Farmers Add New That Brings Profit. Marshfield The growing of cranber ries is proving to be one of the most profitable farm crops for Coos county. Several ranch owners for a number of years past have raised the crop with proht, but it was not generally taken up until the past year. Now quite a number have cranberry mar Bhes. Land which is known as peat or veg etable bog is required for the raising of the crop, and nearbj there mutt be an unlimited supply of fresh water, which can be placed under control. There are, however, many such tracts of land in the county, and cranberry growing promises to be one of the most important of the farming industries of the community. W. D. McFarlan, who ia the pioneer cranberry man of the Pacific coast, has followed the business in Coos county for many years. He has a six-acrx marsh which has never failed to yield a large crop. He has never made less than $200 an acre clear profit, some seasons the net amount has been great er. Excepting at harvest time, when help is needed in picking, one man can O. R. & N. REPORTS.

A Gallagher Confirms Confession and Says Ruef Expected Immunity. San Francisco, Oct. 25. When the Ford bribery trial was resumed yester day the cross examination of ex-Super visor James L. Gallagher was contin ued by Earl Rogers, for the jjefense, who laid stress on the meeting of the witness with Rudolph Spreckels at the Presidio when the promises of immun ity were alleged to have been made. Gallagher said he understood that Ruef also could have immunity if he would testify. Mr. Ileney protested at at tempts of Mr.. Rogers to confuse the witnesB by .testing his memory, but Judge Law lor allowed the examination to proceed. At the afternoon session, Mr. Ileney, while re-3irectly examining Gallagher, called to the counsel tabe Miss Ella Coldot, the grand jury's stenographer, and from ber procured the shorthand notes of Gallagher's confession to Messrs. Spreckels, Ileney and Langdon, made in the latter's apartments, and in consideration of which the witness gained his immunity contract. Galla gher identified his signature to these notes. The prosecution called ex-Supervisor John J. Furey, now a saloon keeper The offer of hia testimony marked the commencement of introduction of "evi dence of similar offenses," the coin overruling the objection by the defense to this class of testimony. Furey told the story of his acceptance dl a bribe of $4,000 from Abe Ruef through Galla gher for his vote in favor of the United Railroads trolley franchises.

A distinct and important step in the movement to secure a deep waterway from Lake Michigan to the uuir oi Mexico was taken yesterday with the opening to navigation of the Illinois and Missis eippi canal, which has been completed after 30 years of work. The importance of the event was evidenced by the at tendance of Governor Deneen and many ether notables at the opening ceremo nies.

"This is the time for the man with a little money to invest it in good securities. The opportunity is fleeting and I doubt if it will ever knock at his door again." So said Edward II.

Five Hundred Perish in Italian Trem- blor at Calabria. ' Rome, Oct. 25. Horrible loss of life resulted from the earthquake shocks that occurred throughout Calabria yes terday. At first it was thought few persons had perishefd, but later reports add to the mortality list, i At 6 o c'ock this evening about 200 bodies had been taken from the earth quake ruins. It is now estimated that the deaths will surpass 500, but it is impossible to get accurate information on the subject, as many villages are sti 11 cut off by the flccds and the de struction of roads and telegraph lines, and no word from them can be had. Tbe earthquake shocks continue, but they are slight. The people are still in a condition of apprehension, which is increased by each tremor. In spite of the torrential rain that is falling, they absolutely refuse to remain under cover. San Francisco, Oct. 26. It is 18 months ago that San Franc'sco was swept by tire and earthquake. Since then she has been afflicted with indus trial strife, civic corruption and bu bonic plague. It is no opportune mo ment to take stock. It does not require an optimist to write the rosy story of the revival. The facts aud the figurea tell their own story and they are here for everyone to see. Great buildings with their rigid frames lacing across the sky, commercial avenues crowded with pedestrians and a vast industrial army tell a tale that even the casual observer must note. The San Franciscan may be in truth pardoned if he shows a disposition to. place his thumbs in his vest and boast of what he has done. But he hasn't much time for boasting. The terrible pace begun when the first frame struc ture waa started has not abated. The' point has been reached where results are beginning to show, and with this has come a new zest for the vast work. Since the fire buildings have been begun to cost $100,000,000 five times as much as in any similar period of time before the fire. They range all the way from the small structure to skyscrapers 14 or 15 stories high. It is as though a building were begun everyday to cost $180,000. There is no sign of a decrease, although it is expected that there will be a natural falling off over the winter months. The remarkable feature of the matter, however, is the stability of the savings accounts. Predictions were freely made that San Francisco could be built only upon the savings of its citizens. Al though $100,000,000 in buildings are under way or completed, the savings accounts in the local banks have shown but a small decrease and still stand at the comfortable figure of $157,000,000. It has been pointed out that it re quired two years for Baltimore to erect buildings to cost $50,000,000 after its. fire, but San Francisco has done four times as well in six months less time. Baltimore's achievement was comment ed upon at the time as marvelous. Burlington is Afier Coal. Helena, Mont., Oct. 26 A special to the Record ' from Bridger says that Chief Engineer Ensign, the superin tendent of right of way of the Burling ton, and George Crosby have arrived there and make the positive announce ment that the Burlington has accepted the survey of a proposed route from Frannie, Wyo., to Fromberg, Mont., nd that construction work will begin at once. This will give the Burling ton access to the rich coal fields of Southern Montana, as well as tapping splendid agricultural and horticul- ural section. The road will follow thes Clark's Fork river. Talk on Trust Problem Chicago, Oct. 25. The second day of the convention of the National Civic federation was devoted to the consider ation of "The Corporation, Its Con struction and Regulation." Prominent speakers who addressed the convention set forth the benefits to be derived from combination when properly regulated. The opinion of several who spoke fa vored national control as opposed to state regulation. National regulation was heartily supported by Isaac N. Se ligman,. of New York. Seth Low, of New York, also favored that plan. Plan to Remove Governor. Seattle, Oct. 25. Nearly the entire delegation from Nome to the number of 50 arrived yesterday and will go to the Repubr'can convention at Juneau next month indorsing home rule for Alaska and for the immediate removal of Gov ernor Hoggatt. With the Fairbanks lelegation headed by 'Judge Wicker- sham and delegations from Juneau, Skagway, Seward and Valdts opposed to the present governor it looks bad for Hoggait. Five Drowned in Alaska.
