Austrian Ambassador Threatens to Go Homs and Tension is Serious. Rapid Rise o f Oklahoma River Causes Groat Damage. London, Dec. 1.— A dispatch to the Times from Constantinople says that the tension between Austria and Tur key is becoming more serious. The departure o f the Austrian ambassador, Marquis Pallavicini, w ill mean the complete rupture o f negotiations. I t is difficult to see how this can be avoid ed by Turkey while Austria maintains her demand for suppression o f the boy cott by active interference o f the porte. Under the new regime this is impossible, as even i f the government issued orders to that effect they would not be obeyed. The heads o f the guilds concerned have told the grand vizier that the boy cott w ill be persisted in so long as Aus tria perseveres in her present attitude. A dispatch to the Tim ea from Vien na says the emperor’s determination to maintain peace is a hopeful sign. There are rumors that Marquis Palla vicini is not likely to leave Constanti nople and there is much speculation concerning the long audience which the emperor granted today to Count Julius Andrassy, the Hungarian minister c f the interior, in view o f the fact that Count Andrassy was the only Hunga rian minister with the courage to op pose the policy o f the annexation o f Bosnia and Herzegovina and predict its probable consequences. Guthrie, Okla., Nov. 30.— A s a re sult o f a 48-hour downpour in the val ley o f the Cottonwood river and its tributaries, the Cottonwood overflowed here yesterday afternoon. Several hundred homes are partially under water in W est Guthrie, and 3,000 per sons are homeless. The river at 6 o’ clock last night was one foot higher than ever before in its history and rising 12 inches an hour. Hundreds o f people who refused to g et out o f the flood district, believing that the river would not rise as rapidly as it did, fired shots o f distress during the night, and hundreds o f boats with rescuers brought the tardy ones to places o f safety. I t is believed that a few persons are still in their homes. So rapid was the rise in the Cotton wood that 20 head o f cattle in the affected district were drowned before they could be got out o f the waters. Streetcar service is completely at a standstill. The c ity ’s water plant is under water. F ive thousand dollars’ worth o f cot ton belonging to the Farmers’ Oil mill was washed away, and 2,000 bales are still in the water.

Yield A P P L E C R O P S M A LLE R . T A L K S ON A PPLE CULTURE. 26 Per Cent Less Than dieted, but Quality Good. Government Expert Delivers Lecture ‘ ,to Grants Pass Growers. Portland -O regon’s apple crop will fa ll behind the expectations o f last spring, by about 25 per cent this year although it w ill still be ahead o f last year in the size o f the yield. This conclusion has been arrived at by Sec retary Williamson, o f the Btate board o f horticulture, who has been receiving reports from all quarters. The unusually early frosts o f Sep- ber, coupled with the high wind that prevailed about that time, are to blame for the fa llin g off in the yield, as well as for the smaller size o f the apples, Mr. Williamson says. The amount of fruit for export has therefore been di minished, but that finding its way into the local markets has been very much increased. This accounts for the mar kets o f Portland being rather over stocked this month, as fru it fo r export must be first quality as regards size and appearance. But freedom from pests in the apples offered for sale is more pronounced than for a number o f years, and con sumers are better protected from wormy apples than at any time since the condling moth, woolly aphis and San Jose scale became prevalent in the orchards o f the state a number of years ago. The solidity and excellent condition o f the apples exposed fo r sale this year are due to the coal oil bottles o f the various county inspectors, Mr. W il liamson says, and this is particularly noticeable in Portland, where Fruit In spector Baum has been unusually busy in inspecting stocks in grocery stores, deddler wagons and fru it stands. Grants Pass— Professor P. J. O ’Gara, a specialist o f plant disease, in the service o f the government, who has been looking over Rogue river valley with a view o f visitin g the principal orchards, lectured in the opera house one day last week to a large gathering o f fru it growers. He took for his top ic “ The Fruit and Its Pests,” and pre sented his subject in a practicable manner. The meeting closed with questions from various persons upon different diseases o f fru it all o f which were readily answered. On the stage, back o f the speaker, in crescent shape, ar tistically arranged, were 100 boxes o f choice apples, representing 40 varieties grown in this vicinity. Struck Gas at Ontario. Ontario— The oil w ell being drilled by the Ontario Oil company is now down about 800 fe et and prospects look very favorable for finding oil in com mercial quantities here. A strong flow o f gas has been encountered, which churned the water in the well and caused it to flow in a rush over the mouth o f the well. I t is believed the gas flow was sufficient to light the town o f Ontario, i f it were utilizd, but as the company is bent on finding oil in quantities, thiB gas was cased off for the present and drilling operations continued. TREATY WITH JAPAN United States Enters Agreement on Chinese Question. RESPECT EACH OTHER’SERIGHTS Tw o Countries A gree to Encourage Free and Peaceful Develop ment o f Com m erce. Washington, Nov. 28.— Despite offi cial reticence, information from relia ble sources has been obtained o f an agreement o f far-reaching importance between the United States and Japan, covering the policies o f the two coun tries on the Pacific. The agreement is based on the idea o f encouraging and defending free and peaceful commer cial development on that ocean. I t contains not only a mutual guar antee to respect one another’ s terri torial possessions there, but defines the attitude o f the two countries tow ard China, binding each to defend by every peaceable means China’s inde pendence and integrity and to g iv e equal commercial opportunity in the Chinese empire to ail nations. More important still, the agreement, in the event o f complications threaten ing the status quo, binds the United States and Japan to consult one an other with a view to acting ‘ together. This agreement has been drawn up in the form o f a declaration and con sists o f five articles, o f which the fol lowing is a faithful description: Tne first article gives expression to the wish o f the two governments to encourage the free and peaceful devel opment o f their commerce on the Pa cific. _____ _________ ______________ ' . ‘ The second is a mutual disclaimer o f an aggressive design, and contains also a definition o f the policy ot each gov ernment, both as directed to the main tenance o f the existing status quo in the Pacific and the defense o f the peo ple o f equal opportunity fo r commerce and industry in China. The third article contains a state ment o f the consequent firm reciprocal resolution o f each government to re spect the territorial possessions in the Pacific o f the other. In the fourth article the United States and Japan express their deter mination “ In the common interest o f all the powers” to support " b y all peaceful means at their disposal” the independence and integrity o f China and the principle o f equal commercial and industrial opportunity fo r all na tions in the empire. The fifth article mutually pledges the two governments, in the case o f the occurrence o f any event threaten ing the status quo as above described, or the principle o f equal opportunity as above designed, to communicate with each other for the purpose o f arrivin g at an understanding with regard to the measures they may consider it useful to take. _______________ _ 1,000 Acres fo r 820,000.
