There hss been a fair bualness In wool In the eastern markets during the past week1, although It has been by no means equally distributed, some houses, as has been truo for some weeks now, getting a fairly good business, whllo others have had a very email trade. Thus, the market keepe fairly firm, sofar prices are concerned, although were It not tor the large supplies of wool which are available for the manufacturer to draw from, It la quite likely that value might strengthen somewhat. While the manufacturer knows that the atocka of wool in the markets of tho coun try are amplo for hla needs he will naturally enough continue to buy only aa he actually need the raw material. Meantime, the dealers, on the other hand, are not disposed to lower prices very. much. On a few des criptions, with hitherto have been held relatively high, prices havo eaa ed a little, but except for these par ticular descriptions, tbo market haa been firm. New Tariff of Interest Of chief Interest to the wool trade naturally, has been the reporting of the proposed permanent tariff to tho house of representatives by the ways and means committee. Tho wool achedule, called "schedule 11" thla time, instead of "schedulo K," is a radical departure from any other tariff ever proposed or enacted. At flrat glance, the schedulo is very contusing and evon after analysis, it Is no means simple. Of course, as soon as the tariff was announced, the manufacturers and dealers com menced to flguro what It would mean to the trade. It Is, noedlesa to say too early yet to declaro with any fin ality Just how it 'will affect the American manufacturer, upon whose welfare deepnds, In tbo. laat analysis, that of tho wool grower and wool dealer, as well. Unless the manufac turer can work to advantage under the terms of the tariff, the wool grower will find the market more difficult in proportion and likewise tho dealer. Raoed on Scoured Content One dt the radical departures of tho wool tariff Is that It Is based on the scoured content of tho wool. It had been supposed that tho original proposition of 26. centa per pound scoured content would be the bill reported finally' by the committee on woola suitable for .clothing pur ENGLISH STIIND I0LIHT ONKINOHE Bowman Gets $2,160 To Drop Road Suit Settlement waa effected between tho county court and C.

Bowman aaked approximately $11,000 for compensation for the right, of , way through, tita, ranch, with .damages for .trespass, tnjary, etc. 'SettlemeBtf waa' made ' for 2460. ' i Several weeka, ago the claims of Mm. Henley, Cheyne, and others wero aubmltted 'to an arbitration moard, which awa'rded plaintiff a total of approximately $12,000. The county court refused to abide by the arbitration hoard's finding, al though agreeing to do ao la formal articles of submission. In the Bow man matter the court dealt directly with the plalaUff. GREAT BHIT1 LONDON, July 11.

Lloyd George told the house of com mons, adding that Greet Britain wonld do Jts utmost to make the conference a success.

There was a feeling that a discussion would bring about an understand ing Including virtually the whole field of international relations. Lumbermen Here From Eatt to Vimt H. D. Davis, pioneer lumberman, with manufacturing and distributing interest la Wisconsin and Oregon, Is here from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, to visit hla aoae, Robert and Henry. Mr. Davis refused to commit him self to great extent upon the lumber situation. Ha eeys the rapidity of readjustment depends upon wage scales In the bullatng trades and freight rates adjustment. 'Ho Indi cated that he felt the lumber trsde might be slightly brisker this fall and decidedly better next spring. When normalcy la restored he pre dicted, from the experience of an op erator who haa weathered four pen lods of depression, that ten years of unexampled prosperity would be the portion of the Umber men. PIONEER PRBACBER DEAD PORTLAND. July 11. Dr.' C. E. Cllne, pioneer Methodist minister and Civil war veteran, died here to day aged 77. poses and so thero waa considerable surprise when the bill finally waa f released for publication to find that thla duty had been limited by the proviso that tho maximum duty should bo 35 per cent ad valorem on all clothing wools. On the raw ma terial, the duty may be adequate but It Is not certain that the duty on manufactured goods Is as high aa it waa under the Underwood-Sim mons bill. Certainly, the rates on the tariff aa a whole and on the wool schedule, also, are lower tban they were In' the Payne-Aldrlch tar iff. It is difficult to believe that the tariff on wool in lta' present form will be the eventual tariff, or that the tariff bill aa a whole will not be modified very greatly before fi nal enactment. The bill bears inter nal evidence of haying been draft ed with the thought of reconciling conflicting influences. With the sys tem of American valuations adopted Instead of the foreign market valua tions aa hitherto, it Is difficult to form' any comparative ideas of what the tariff, msama contrasted with the Payne-AMrich law. ; UN HUT ' KJUI05 BROWER SHMSIO Say BUU WmHelti Up Because They Were Incurred Without Au thority; Rap 'Brew er' Conduct. i - The county court denies allegation of District Attorney Brower that the conduct of hla office la hampered by the court's dilatory actios apes claim's for atuoaMle hire sad tel egraph foils, aearrsd by the district attorney's office In the sppreheMlea of crimJnsls, in a lesgthy statement Issued Saturday.
