The time of the criminal department.
. yesterday. was talfenUp with tle -ase
tof the State against A. M. Humphrey.
the defendant .belnsr on trial' chargred
with larceny rf bailee of ZOi buntu-ls
t of wheat, and after a lengthy delibet-
at ion the Jury last night re turned Jnto
J court, and brought In .a verdict of
gullty;' and recommended "the de-
fenddnt to the mercy of the court."
The trial of the case was cmtnencod
on Monday afternoon, wnen the testi
mony' for the state was Introduced, to
the effect that K. T.' Hall, the prose
cuting witness, had stored 204 bushels
of wheat In the warehouse of aJ M.
Humphrey ic Co., in 1900, receiving
therefor the scale checks only, no stor
age receipts being issued. That; In
March he demanded the grain, but re
ceived neither, the j wheat nor the,
money. Other witnesses were Intro
duced corroborating the statements of
Mr.lHall. This was denied by the de
fendant and his wife, who both swore
that the defendant had purchased the
wheat from Mr. Hall, at 65 cents a
bushel, and that but for, his lcknes
would have been able to raise j the
rhortey and pay for It. His books were
Introduced In evidence, showing! an
entry corroborating this statement,' but
the
tire
the
defense declined to place the en
book Iri evidence, permitting only
page carrying the entry In que
to go to the Jury. Among: the
tioni
state's witnesses were several who tes
tified that the wheat was shipped out,
before It was demanded at the de
fendant's hands, and that there was
no wheat in . the warehouse at" that
time. ' , - I
By noon all "the testimony jwas In,
and the arguments to the Jury began
at the opening of the afternoon session.
At 2: 30-o'clock the. jury retired for de
liberatlonl and all the afternoon they
discussed I the case, returning. Into
court at p. in., for Instructions. They
asked the court that If It was found
that the defendant had converted the
wheat to his own use, whether, that
carried with It the presumption of
criminal Intent. The'coTirt In janswer
stated, that was for the Jury to deter
mine, and the twelve mejn returned to
the Jury roona for further deliberation
At 8:30 they; again returned into court.
with a. verdict of "guilty as charged.
and added that they recommend "the
defendant to the mercy of the court.'
The defendant was allowed to go on
his bond, by the cyirt.

Ttie memberaof the Universal Gold

It was decided i to Incorporate and a

one of the directors, went to Portland
on Monday morning for the purpose of
purchasing the necessary machinery
with which to equip the prospective
Plant and returned on the evening train
of the same day. They fqund what
they were looking for, but later It baa
developed that an engine and air com
pressor, such as will meet, the com
pany's requirements for some time to
come, is offered for sale In this city and
It is quite probable that this machinery
will be secured.
Mr. fxng says that there' will be no
trouble: Whatever to dispose1 of all the
stock, as parties In Portland have sig
nified their desire to take 2,000.000
ha res, and many other requests by
mall to reserve, stock are received.
many of which cannot be supplied.'

central part of the city had deen se
leeted, but not ' yet secured, which
would suit their purposes admirably
and the committee had been Instructed
to take steps toward securing it.
lie has Just completed another test.
This ore, he stated. Of which there was
only a pound, he had received through
the mails, accompanied, by a request
to test It and get what he could from
it, with no signature, address or ex
planatlon whatever, as to where the
ore was procured. - He did not care to
know, however, and proceeded with the
test, putting the ore through, the free
milling process first, by which he ob
tained about one-half cent's, worth Of
gold therefrom, and then put it through
his chemical process .and procured
about seven cents' Worth of gold more,
all from the pound of ore, or at the
rate of 1150 per ton. He claims that
this ore was "doctored.' as It- only
takes about 8 hours for his process to
work the ore ordinarily, while In this
case It required about three tiroes that
length of time. He is pleased with the
result, however, and stated that,wbile
he. did not take tim- o ascertain hor
did he care as to what the nature of
the composition was With which- the
ore was "doctored.' the result had only
tended -to strengthen his faith in the
process. '
Mr. Long says that It will only be a
matter of a few weeks until the jdant
is established when he will then be in
a position to operate! on a larger scale
and demonstrate his, claims to the
public. ,

tFroin Wednesday's St
Stesman )
Morris Terry, of 1 W'atiervllte, New
.York, one of the leading
nd best in-
formed hop. growers of-
the country.
points out the danger of continued low
prices as a result the Inev itable result
of the txrilcy adopted iyso ' many
growers, of contracting tlie.lr .crops at
low- prices before the 'work in the ynrds
begins, and he urges co-ojeratjon and
a combinaUon of all the growers In the
country to, put an end to jt his suicidal
iwllcy. In his i letter, Mr. Terry, who
Is onsidered an authority on hops,
says: . r . " ..
"To the Hop Growers of the United
- States: '
ls .there any show for bops to do
any (better for the next-1 -n years un
less growers. Center ih'to a Combination?
Tiat Is the use of. workljng hard and
not onjy not getting ahead! but running
behind every, year? Isn'o it better to
quit now? Most every kcre of .land
that the grower has set to
hops would
produce' two (tons Of hay.
ways a market- for hay
There Is al
and at gtMtd
prices. Suppose there was not more
than two-thirds hops enough grown
this year they would haver been low In
price Just the same. Unless the1 com
bine between the -dealers Is broken up
the growers might Just aa welt quit at
once. t The dealers send their . men
around and contract a fire bop at 10,
11 and 12c. That, keeps the brewer
along and the dealer tells) the brewers
that he will furnish him hops by and
by for less money. The gjrower begins
to. Want money, so they le go. for what
they can get.; They are. not able to pay
any debts and only 'get a little more
than enough to pay fori harvesting.
The dealers say to the growers, it does
not make any difference there are hops.
enough to supply the . World, grown-j
west. . j- .
"There are a good many growers get
ting mad and will never jtow another
hop. f But -that, as I have said dtefore,
wiy make no difference If the rest keep
up this contracting beforr harvesting.
It must be stopped or else stop raising.
"Now what can be done ' Something
should be lone at once. In the first
place do not contract one ' pound of
hops before harvesting, lin the second
place, let the grower mt raise' any
more hops than he oan n et money to
pay for harvesting, r Then let the hops
stand'' in the hop house as long as he
thlpks best. 'The buyers: have got to
come to Wm.; The grov er then has
something to say about ths price. You
see at once that ten bales of hops pays
better at 20c than, twenty bales'at 10c.
Ixt every grower decrease his acreage
instead of increasing. Growing in this
way can fit this hop business so it will
pay o raisft them.
. "The dealers tell you the brewers do
not use many hops say .one-half
pound per barrel. Now ihen you see
plainly thsit hops ought to have brought

had not" made fools of themselves.
How long would It take o pay tor a
farm at the prices lhat hrive been rvid
up to 19007 It-would take more than
one life to do It. Isn't it better for the
grower to quit 'than to st
rugrgle' along
In this way?

If they -can buy for one-half a cent a
ound less. They will say
they are not
So yoii see
picked right or are slack
there Is no show for the
grower.
