V Possibly the biggest real estate deal
ever , consummated at one time in the
history of the state, in point of acre
age and consideration, according .Ho
current rumors, is about to be carried
out when Krebs Bros., well known as
tbe most extensive hop growers in this
state, if not on the Pacific coast,' dis
pose of their entire holdings in land
in this and Polk counties. Although
confirmation is lacking it is understood
that this well known firm of hop grow
ers and dealers is about : to sell all
of its lanu, including tbe - extensive
hop yards, and go out of the hop busi
ness entirely. It is reported that the
two farms, 653 acres in Polk county
and 400 acres in the vicinity of Brooks,
this county, .have been offered for! sale
and that negotiations are now pending
for their disposal.
This rumor has been in circulation
for the past few days, but no confirma

with a direct question of whether or

BEER A LIQUID
Prof. Weber of Ohio State University Draws Line Sharply
Between Spiritudus and Fermented Lfquors-Bccr
Is
I Professor Hqijry A. Weber of the Ohio State University, in a report recently
published, drew the line sharply between SPIRITUOUS and FERMENTED liquors,
basing the distinction mainly on jhe relative proportions of alcohol and extractive
matter they contain. The extractive matter he characterized as the FOOD VALUE,
and he referred to BEER as the ONLY LIQUOR -WITHIN HIS KNOWLEDGE
IN WHICH THE EXTRACTS OF FOOD SUBSTANCES WERE, IN QUAL
ITY, IN EXCESS OF THE ALCOHOL. . : i
According to his investigations, the average beer contained in the neighborjiood
of 4 per cent, of alcohol, and such a beer could consistently be classed a "PERFECT
FOOD- although the substances called for in a "perfect food" were not present . in
their proper proportions. Even, the alcohol in these beers, in his opinion, through its
oxidation and its effect on heat-producing energy, must be regarded as ENHANCING
THEIR FOOD VALUE, an opinion which has. also been expressed, after exhaustive
scientific experiments, by JPRdR ATWATERS, of Wesleyan; University, as de
scribed in the previous report and other eminent authorities.
. . Prof. Weber states that he would advise the sale of beer in the ordinary dry towns

POBTLAND, Julys 19. The general
sessions conference of charities and
corrections today were devoted to
''criminals' -, and "neighboring im
provement. ' The report ' of the com
mittee on criminals by James A- Leon
ard, chairman, was submitted to the
conference. Leonard was unable to be
present in person. The report' said in
part: -" : : .
' ' The head of one large reformatory

age of, say 16, found guilty of penal
acts, but who, in the judgment of tbe
court, are not of criminal bent, should
not be confined, but entered upon the
reformatory rolls under suspended sen
tence on, at least a year 's probation
"Any of these found repeating crim
inal conduct should be promptly com

serving their probation in good faith
should be discharged -from the legal
custody of the ' reformatory without
prejudice. ' To introduce this feature in
the ideal reformatory it will be neces

but experience and observation,
strengthened" by the opinion of those
long engaged in the work, leads tq the
belief that this "probationary feature
should be added to the reformatory
system without delay. If in addition
to a wise administration of such pro
bationary law all officers charged with
the prosecution and custody of crimi
nals were placed on fixed salary in
stead of the. mischievous fee system
now in vogue in many states, the cen

Win S Two-Story Structure With a
Baseman and Attic s&d Strictly Mod-
- ern . In ' Ererr ' Bespect Will 'Begin
Work of Construction by August 1.
(From Wednesday's Daily).'
. Willamette , university is to have a
medical college. That question was de
cided beyond all possibility of a doubt
at a meeting of the finance committee
last evening, which was held in the of
fice of -Dra. Byrd and Smith.' It was
also ' decided to have the specifications
for the proposed building drawn up
from the plans, .which . have already
been prepared by Architects , Pugh St
Legg, in order that bids for the con
struction of the college may be invited
by the first of next week. It is pro
posed to have the building in course of
cost ruction by August 1, that It may be
finished or enclosed before the rough
weather of winter sets in, and tue
building complete, outside of furnish
ings, etc., will cost about $15,000.
: During" the meeting of the committee
last .evening the whole matter, was gone
over completely and in detail, when it
was. decided that there was a sufficient
amount of money in sight,- already sub
scribed, to warrant going ahead with
the work and a building committee.
composed of Dr. J. N. Smith, C. P.
Bishop and E. P. McCornaek, was. ap
pointed to manage the affair from the
present stage until completion. ; The
plans as submitted by the architects
were also approved as a whole and all
is in, readiness for work as soon as bids
are received and the contract awarded.
The building, as described . in The
Statesman of last Saturday, will be a
two-story structure with basement and
attic. The structure proper will be of
brick, and the design is drawn after
the latest approved models, for this
character of building. The structure.
when completed, will ? not only be
credit and improvement to the uiver
sity and surroundings but to the city
as well, and wni stand for ages as
monument to the enterprise ? and - un
swerving efforts of the finance commit
tee, as well as to the generosity of-, the
subscribers to the fund, and an ever
lasting benefit and improvement to the
community.
According to the present plans the
basement of the buildine will be used
for a "chemical laboratory, the first floor
proper' will be divided into class rooms,
the second floor, space will be devoted
to lecture rooms, while theattic, which
will be -quite spacious, will be used for
a dissecting and clinic room.. The
building will be located in the north
west corner of the university campus
and situated about a hundred feet back
from State-and Winter streets, respec
tively.
The erection of this building will
prove quite an innovation for Willam
ette University, which is one of the old
est and most noted of educational insti
tutions on -the Pacific coast. The med
ical college is rated' as the best -on the
coast and is equalled by none outside
of the city of San Francisco. The new
building for the college, which has been
needed for -many years past, will not
only add dignity to the entire institu
tion but an everlasting credit to tne
state, church 'and city, and too much
credit for its realization cannot be giv
en to the members of the finance commit
tee who are directly responsible for its
accomplishment.

CUEINO OF HOPS.
Unless .Oregon Growers Take to Using
None but ,Befined'r Grade of Sul
phur There is Danger of Losing Eng
lish' Brewers as Customers. !
(From Wednesday's Daily).
No little comment has been occasion
ed by the discovery, through- scientific
analysis of the properties, of arsenic in
beer in sufficient quantities to produce
poisoning to- the consumers and the re
sult is bound to be a reform in the
manner of, curing the hop- It has been
determined that the arsenic complained
of exists principally in the sulphur that
is used by the growers in curing their
bops and the upshot or the whole thing
is, according to the opinion ox an au
thority. upOa the subject, that unless
the Oregon growers resort to the use of
nothing but the 'refined , brands or ssi
phur and desist' from the. use of -the
more inferior brands, known as crude
Sulphur, tbey -will soon find their -pro
duct without a market on the other
side ' of the Atlantic and the brewers
of, England have proven themselves to
bo. the best customers of . the Oregon
growers.-f -'-'. , ; -,
As a result of the death: of several
people; in j the north of England as a
result of arsenic poisoning from beer,
tbe nglish board" of,'trade Reminded
that all dried hop should be put to a
thorough -chemical test to ' determine
theis arsenic 'qualities', before . ; they

weuld be allowed to be used in the
manufacture of beer on that ' side of
the continent. "John Carmichael, a
prominent hop dealer of this city, was
called upon to, and did submit a series
of twelve samples of hops from Oregon
growers! These, samples were analysed
by the government chemist of England
with the result that all but two of tbe
samples " contained proportionately
more arsenic to the pound of sulphur
used than was permissable and would
not be allowed to be used la the manu
facture of beer in ngland under the
late dispensation. The limit of arsenie
fixed by the English government as al
lowable in hops is I'lOO grain to the
pound of sulphur used in earing, and
the two Oregon samples which were ex
cepted from the list submitted as being
admissable showed from 1-100 grain to
1-140 grain of arsenie to the pound of
sulphur Used, while -one of those listed
as unsatisfactory ran as high as 1H
grains of arsenie to the pound of sul
phur. : : - ; - - - -v ' '
This, Mr, Carmichael says, ought to
be sufficient warning to the Oregon
growers in choosing the quality and
amount of sulphur they use in the cur
ing of their hope, and, if they benefit
by the; information as they should- it
ought to be the means of Oregon hops
becoming famous for their purity and
freedom, from arsenie poisoning. The
first two samples, characterized as being
admissable to the English market on
account of the low percentage of arsen
ie -poisoning, were cured by what is
known as the rolled-canary bright yel
low refined sulphur, and bright canary
yellow pea sulphur (refined), all other
ten samples were cured with crude sul
phur. Another thing Mr. Carmichael
says, is that the Oregon growers, that
is the majority of them, hare the idea
that it 'requires one pound of sulphur
;to the box of hops, or fourteen pounds
dried, whereas, if a superior quality of
sulphur is used, that is the refined arti
cle, it should require only due-half
pound of 'sulphur to the box of hops.
Through the kindness of Mr. Car
michael The Statesman takes pleasure
in reproducing for the benefit of the
Oregon growers, the letter received by
him from his " firm in England, com
menting upon the result "of the chem
ist's analysis of the samples submitted,
together with, the chemist's report in
detail. They follow:
"Mr. John Carmichael. ' , ;
"Dear Sir: Owing to the agitation
rn England on the subject of arsenie in
dried hops we hsve been requested by
tbe board of trade to investigate this
matter and we have made a most care
ful analysis of the samples of sulphur,
fertilizers and spraying-emulsion you
submitted to us some time ago.- We
enclose you our chemist's report, which,
speakes for itself, and to our mind
auite disposes of the necessity of inves
tigating further the. source of trouble
as regards the presence or arsenie in
Oregon bops.
"Will you be good -enough to take
up this matter at once with ail grow
ers and warn. them of the 'danger' they
are running in not using the purest sul
phur obtainable. After the advice we
are now able to give. there is no excuse
for growers not producing a hop practi
cally free from arsenic. It is most im
portant in the interest of growers gen
erally that this subject should be' tbor-
i n a l - -
ougoiy veumiiie'i.
"Some few years ago several people
died in the north of England from ar
senical poisoning, caused through drink
ing certain beers. In -this particular
instance the arsenic was traced to the
sugar used in making the beer and sev
eral brewers and sugar refiners were
ruined, one of the iormer pouring as
much as 50.000 barrels of beer down
tbe sewers. It was. discovered that
arsenic was to be found in hops, with
the result that tbo English, board of
trade determined that the minimum
amount of arsenic to be allowed in any
bops used was to be 1-100 of a errata to
tbe pound of" hops. The merchants used
all their influence to have this amount
increased to 1-50 of a -grain to the
pound ot hops but without success.. The
lx) n don merchants now have each their
own expert to whom all samples, re
reived are submitted and they will be
unable to put base any bops, whether
domestic or foreirn, which contain
more than 1-100 part of a grain of ar
ecnie to tbe pound of hops.
"Many English growers' samples
show k very much larger percentage of
srsetiic than any samples received from
the Pacific coast which may be account
ed for by tbe fact that tbev drv' lartra
ly with coke and smokeless eoal in an
open fireplace, and .that they burn their
suipnur in tne ore itself.
"Once, a train if the Oregon growers
win use only the purest refined sulphur
there is no reason whatever why all
their hops should not pass the test.
'-, yours truly
'London. England, June 28, 1903."
Chemist's Beport.
"Dear Sir:. I now beg to report the
eight samples of sulphur received from
you on June 14. The only: two satis
factory are Jo. 7 ; and .No. 10.
o. 7 shows 1-140 gram of arsenie

"All the other samples are Unsatis

as I explained in a previous report, is

" The selenium . rather interferes
with the arsenie test tending to make
the arsenie come out too low. I am.
therefore, reporting the unsatisfactory
results as at least such and such an
amount. By this I mean that earh
sample at least contains the amount of
arsenie stated and may contain more.
'As the arsenie shown in mv analy

As' usual' the maximum official tem
peratures were everywhere exceeded by
those prevailing in the crowded dis
tricts, where the actual tcmneraturo
frequently exceeded 100 degrees.
The -cumulative effect of the contin
ued torridity of these districts was
painfully evident in the enormous in
crease of the number of deaths in New
York. The death roll yesterday was"
twenty-six, but that of today reached
the appalling total of seventy-five, be
ing nearly half of thoso prostrated.
This was almost entirely due to tbe
collapse of women and children and
aged persons, whoso exhausted vitality
was unequal to tbe strain of further
suffering.

the public parks, oh piers ajong the

that promised a breath of air," tbe con
ditions that confronted the people of
New York this morning were terrify

and hour after hour the heat grew
more and. more' intense. Every ambul
ance was kept busy and by noon the
hospitals were crowded with tbe suf
