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

tria perseveres in her present attitude.

There are rumors that Marquis Palla

Count Andrassy was the only Hunga

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

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

manner.
The meeting closed with questions

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.
