in Lane Jail
Five Oregon Agricultural College stu
dents, three of them said to be seniors,
mrn In the Lane county jail toduy and
will likely face charges of theft.
It is alleged that the youths, who were
here for Junior week-end, stole five lap
lobes from two different garages, a lea
ther back rest, a street sign and broke
n catsup bottle on the streets. They were
nrrested Sunday morning about o'clock
by Will Judkins, police enptain. They
spent some time in the city juil before
being removed to the county bustile.
Twv of the robes nre from the Sweet
Drain garage, and three from the I-ane
Auto company. Clyde l'lsk, one of the
proprietors of the I.ane Auto company,
has said he intends to presa charges
against them. The youths, traveling by
automobile, are said to have entered both
garages for "reiMiirs" to their machine,
and while they browsed around among
other cars and took what caught their
eye. They allayed suspicion of garage
men, tUHording to the story told Sheriff
Stu-kels, by asking to be permitted to
use the washrooms and instead of enter
ing them put in their time uround the
cars in the buildings.
Names- of the five, as given to the
police, are: B.irl Russell. Edgar Xf. and
H. O'Houckc, Hoy Anderson and Herman

LUMBER MARKET Oil '
DECLINE, WOODl;
The lumber market is on the decline,
at least in the San Francisco bay coun
try, according to Walter A, Woodurd,
sawmill operator of the Cottage drove
district who has hist returned from a
business trip to 'Frisco. Drops of $!t to
$.r a thousand board feet have tuken
place in the lost month, he soya.
"Down around the bay. carpenters'
wages were m-ently increased from $8
to l per oay, woottara says, "wun tne
resttlt that building operations have
gradually fallen off, until the lumber
yards report that there is from 25 to .'10
per cent less building going on now than
there was 00 days ago. '
"Prices on lumber are from $.1 to' $!
per thousand lower than they were a
month or so ago, and the general feeling
among buyers is tliot lumber prices will
continue to drop.

By a wore of 4 to 1, Junction City
handed Eugene's team in the 1'pper Wil

Simultaneously, another motion was

for arguments. There seems little chance
that the court will hear arguments be

This step will be taken, as part of nn
effort to determine, once and for all,
whether the government, with all ita
laws and powers, is helpless before a
conspiracy to run up prices of the uecea
saries of life.
Every law that seems applicable will
be tried. If the gougera cannot be
brought to justice unuer auy ot them,
congress will bo naked to make new
laws.
The government's motion, filed today
in the supreme court, to expedite tho

structed the department of justicu to
bring about.

a law covering this situation is Certain
to be made to the next congress, dj juiu
