Charged with Murder
San Francisco, Aug. 10. The date for

the five persons charged with murder
in connection with the San Francisco
bomb outrage will be set on Satur
day, August 19; Edward Nolan's trial
will be set next Wednesday and the
three other bomb suspects will be set

When the five prisoners appeared be
fore Superior Judgo Cabaniss this morn
ing for arraignment, tho court con
tinued all of the cases on request of
the prisoners or their attorneys.
All five prisoners were brought into
court under a heavy guard of detec
tives. Warren K. Billings, principal
suspect, loBt none of his nonchalance
during tho hearing, smiled at several
friends in the court room and laughed
in Judge Cabaniss' face when the court
read the indictments to him. He was
represented by Attorneys Edward Lem
asny and John Lawler.
When Mooney and his wife appeared,
it was the first time they had seen
each other since their arrest a few
days aftor the dynamiting. They em
braced affectionntely and spoke a few
words o'f encouragement to each other.
Neither was represented by counsel and
Mooney said to the court: "This is a
big thing and I have not yet been able
to arrange for counsel. I would like
to have the court continue my case for
two weeks to give- me an opportunity
to get an attorney."
Judge Cabaniss declined to continue
the hearing that long and set it for
Tuesday alonr with Billings and Ed
ward Nolan. He advised Mooney to get
an attorney at once. Attorneys William
H. Cook and Albert Wallstcin represent
ed Nolan in court.'
All the prisoners were charged with
murder on three counts of the indict
ments against them, first separately and
then jointly. The specific charges were
thnt thoy had been responsible for the
murders of Mrs. Hetty Knapp, Arthur
Nelson and Captain Reuben Vaughn.
Neither Emma Goldman nor any of
her anarchistic followers was in court.

LOJU COMPANIES MUST
EMACHINERY
Wire for Duplicate Batting
OutfitHeavy Shipments
Made
On account of the business assuming
such large proportions and the heavy
demand for Loju coming in from all
points in the west, the Northwest Fruit
Products company yesterday wired to
the manufacturers of bottling machin
ery to ship by express, duplicate filling
and washing machines. . When these
arrive within a few days,, the bottling
capacity of the Loju plaiit will ; be
doubled.
On account of the berries ripening
late this year, bottling has been delay
ed several weeks, and while plans were
made to ship by the first of July, de
lays were sucii that many points will
not receive their car shipments of Loju
until the latter part of this month.
This week car load shipments were
made to Pueblo, Col., Salt Lake City,
Milwaukee, Denver, .Minneapolis, Jian
sas City, three cars to Joplin, Mo., car
loads to St. Paul, Wichita, Oklahoma
City, five cars to Los Angeles and two
cars to San Francisco, Betorc the iirst
of September car loads will be shipped
to Sacramento. San Diego, Tucson, Ari
zona; Spokane, Wallace, Idaho, three
cars to Portland, '' to Jacoma anu
two cars to Oakland. Calif. In all 34
cars will be shipped before September
1.
In each car is about 1000 cases of
Loiu. The Northwest Products com
pany, for tiie manufacture of Loju a-
lone, has paid out tnis season smyjuu
for loganberries. Before the end of
the season, they expect to ship out at
least 200,000 cases.
Some idea of the growing business
of the manufacture of Loju may be
had from the fact that all this busi
ness has been . developed within the
last year, and that the Northwest
Fruit Products company is not ship
ping or accepting business east of the
Mississippi river. They are only work
ing west of the Mississippi and the
re-orders for Loju have been such that
it may be a year or two before agencies
are established in the eastern slates.

. More Big Successes,
By Ed L. Seen.
(United Press staff correspondent.)
London, Aug. 10. New and striking
successes for the allies in their great
triple offensive were reported in offic

Dividends Held
Meet Any
New York, August 10 A very
striking, disposition exists on part of
big corporation managers against dis
tributing in the form of dividends cur
rent extraordinary profits. While
those engaged in turning out munitions
usually secured the largest rewards,
big profits have not been restricted to
such concerns, but extended to many
of the regular industrials; and even
the railroads have shared in the gen
eral prosperity. Circumstances con
sidered, dividends as a rule have been
distributed very conservatively, and,
wnile there have been many increases,
the additional distribution as a whole
has been only a fraction of the actual
gain in profits. Several reasons con
tributed to the adoption of such a
policy. Munition makers naturally led
in this conservative movement, and
sought to protect themselves against
the future by reserving sufficient
funds to wipe off cost of plant or de
preciation, to offset the rise in com
modities and wages, to reduce indebt
edness and to leave a good surplus for
meeting reaction or any other unfor
seen conditions that may develop after
I'the war. O.ner industrials, especially
stool and ch.cmiea(l concern, recog
nised that the extraordinary gains of
1915 and 1916 were ephemeral, that
sound business managefent required
taking advantage of such a situation
by reducing fixed obligations, allow
ing for depreciation and enlarging of
fclant to meet new demands, and in
general placing their business in a
strong position against the future.
Certain Securities Affected.
There are, however, certain classes of
securities less directly affected by the
war; among these being the railroad
and such industrial concerns as pro
duced strictly for the home trade or
legitimate export orders. These, too,
enjoyed great activity; quite sufficient
to materially enlarge their profits, but
not enough to warrant more than mod
erate increases in dividends if any.
Many corporations have made unusual
gains in gross earnings, but the rise in
wages, commodities and other costs
prevented profits from becoming ab
normal and kept dividends from in
creasing. The stock market still refuses to
he stimulus of these
"phenomenal profits. In spite of danger
Spots, the OUtlOOK IS encouragm.
ordinary times such conditions as now
exist would be accompanied by wide
spread and active speculation, if not a
boom surpassing all records. But stocks
stubbornly refuse to move either up or
down, except within relatively narrow
limits; every pronounced rise being fol
lowed by significant selling, while
every fall of consequence is soon
cheeked by a withdrawal of offerings.
Such an anomalous situation has never
been seen. The war, of course, is the
only explanation. It fills the situation
with so many hidden uncertainties that
II ordinary standards of judgment are
apt to miscarry. Who knows when the
war will end, and how the country will
take the readjustment to a peace basis!
All Is Uncertainty.
Who ean tell how many more securities
Europe will unload on this market; and
who ean fairly estimate the coming
pressure of foreign loans t Though all
of these problems are being faced in a
confident spirit, it is impossible to feel
sure of what will happen. Home af
fairs are not without their perplexities.
The crop outlook is not encouraging.

both wheat and cotton having suffered
rather serious deterioration, though
there will be sufficient of both to se
cure good prices and prevent famine.
The labor situation is particularly
threatening; prosperity seeming to
have turned the heads of a certain
type of leaders and making them think
that the rights of the public and own
ers are entirely subservient to the de
mands of labor, whether reasonable or
unreasonable. The national political
campaign fairly opened with Mr.
Hughes' address and will soon become
more of a factor in estimating the fu
ture. The Mexican problem is far
from a settlement and may remain so
for mouths to come. The money outlook
is satisfactory and time money easy ow
ing to linjited demand and abundant
supply. Money in circulation in the
United States now amounts to over
$4,000,000,000, or more than $400,000,
000 in excess of a year ago. The situa
tion in fact has changed so completely
that New York banks are transferring
their balances to London to secure the
better rates there. Capital applications
in the United States since January 1
aggregated about $2,000,000,000, or
nearly double the amount of a year
ago. Of this vast sura nearly $450,000,
000 represented foreign loans of var
ious descriptions, about $900,000,000 in
dustrial issues while railroad issues ac
counted for another $500,000,000. In
July new charters of $1,000,000 or
over in the principnl Eastern States
aggregated $217,000,000, compared with
$71,000,000 a year ago, and $08,000,000
in 1914. So much for the very extra
ordinary demands upon our capital
market which cannot be prolonged
without affecting the financial situa
tion on this side. Evidently we are
threatened by congestion in the securi
ty market which may partly explain
tiie unwillingness of the ' market to
respond to stimulating surface condi
tions. Trade is somewhat less active as
usual at this season. Bank clearings
last week were only 33 per cent ahead
of last year, compared with recent
gains of 40 per cent and over. Rail
road earnings are satisfactory, running
25 per cent more than a year ago; the
latest report of the New York Central
showing an increase of $21,000,000 of
gtoss earnings for the six months end
ing June, and $10,000,000 in operating
expenses being highly significant. In
side selling at home and war selling
abroad, plus the constant pressure of
both new and old issues, ereate a per
plexing situation. Were the market
governed by ordinary rules, there
would be greater tjctivity and wider,
if not sensational, fluctuations. As it
is the situation is stabilized by the
conservative spirit of New York bank
ers . who are discouraging unsound
operations and looking out for Amer
ican interests. The British government
is also exerting a steadying influence,
having potent reasons for aiding the
preservation of sound conditions here
in order to facilitate its own opera
tions. Great Britain not only wants to
keep exchange at a convenient level,
but also to avoid the threatened con
gestion of our security markets and
pave the way for a new bond issue
later on. The situation therefore is
encouraging in spite of perplexities.
Steel shares are strengthened by the
fact that further big munition orders
are coming or have come this way, in
dicating vigorous prosecution of the
3
Salem, Oregon
war by the Allies. When the war ends
it is practically certain that big foreign
orders will be received from abroad for
railroad equipment industrial plants
and other reconstruction requirements
which Europe cannot meet. It has been
estimated by high authority that $T,
000,000,000 will be required to replace
the necessary plants and property thus
far destroyed iu Belgium and France,
and that a goodly portion of such
orders must coine to the United States.
If this supposition proves true our exr
port trade, especially of steel products,
will continue active after the war,
with a consequent stimulus upon many
other industries.

WOMEN IN FAVOR OF
Gathering at Colorado Springs
Rely On Promise of a
Politician
Colorado Springs, Colo,, Aug. .10.
Sentiment was strongly in favor of en
dorsing Charles E. Hughes and adopt
ing a ringing declaration against Presi
dent Wilson as tho delegates from the
12 suffrage states gathered here today
for the nationals party conference.
The republican candidate's personal
pledge, for a federal suffrage amend
ment, was contrasted by the conference
leaders with President Wilson's opposi
tion to national action.
The policy of the woman's party
will be fixed at' ail executive session
tomorrow afternoon when a $500,000
enmpaign will be launched to elect
friends of a federal suffrage amend
ment. The "society" spirit evident among
the fashionably gowned delegates will
be" vented at the open reception in
their honor this evening given by Mrs.
Leonard Eager Curtis, leader of the
"400 ' ' in the Pikes Peak region.
With soap box orators wherever they
can gather a crowd, the women are
proving more of an attraction here
than the Pikes Peak motorcycle races.
The Antlers hotel, headquarters for the
conference is bedecked with suffrage
flags. Suffrage literature is presented
to every one. A party of the leaders
motored up Pikes Peak to plant their
symbol a purple, gold and white flag.
