The New York Evening Sun financial review today said: There was not a great deal of inter est manifested in tho stock market to day. Trading was quiet and of profes sional origin. Such animation as there was in evidence was displayed by the railroad list, which developed a firm undertone with good demand for the leading issues in that department on Washington reports that the interstate commerce commission would De ready to pass on the freight rate application next week. Industrial stocks were neg lected and inclined to Waver within narrow limits for the most part, fol lowing the buying movement iu the early session. After the initial advance, industrial stocks were narrow onboth sides of the previous closing level and slug gish to a degree. There was distinct weakness in the motor group. The steel and copper shares were generally firm. Occasionally a strong spot developed like Mexican Petroleum on a brighter outlook with Tespect to the threatened oil embargo. Trailing jn the rails con tinued more or less animated under the lead of Union Pacific and Reading, tho latter gaining some three points. Prices wore easier in the late trading.

The Apple Pie that "showed me" (Report No. 4) By a Missourian I was raised in St. Louis, Missouri on apple pie and other things. When I arranged tq have K make apple pie with Cotto lene, I wanted pie with a wholesome flaky crust. I got it. I'll ex plain here how. After K. had dried her hands, I had to argue to get her to follow the directions, to use one-third less" of Cottolene than she would of other short ening. But soon K -said, "Cottolene certainly chops in easy." When the dough was mixed she frot it in the ice-box or a while. That suit ed me because K said it helped to make the crust flaky. Then she rolled the dough. By this time the oven was hot. I waited half an hour, hoping for flaky-crusted apple pie. 1 was not disappointed. That was as good an apple pie as I tvtr tasted. The crust certainly- was flaky, and the flavor was delicious. I was shown. If you want to be shown, too, why don't you make a pie with Cottolene? This is the recipe K used for her pie crust: One and one-half cups flour Half teaspoon baking powder Half teaspoon salt Ice water Quarter cup Cottolene From R.J. C, Jr. FREE!

It is expressly prohibited for any vessel to enter the limit of ft defensive sea area otherwise than at a designated entrance and after authorization by the harbor entrance patrol." PORTLAND MAKING EECOED Leaders Against Peace. Some of the Russian radicals in Amor-' ica seem to be quite out of touch with the present spirit in Russia and they would seem to be playing inadvertent ly into the hands of another pro-German intrigue, the aim of which is to make us anxious about the real situation in Russia. One of the best known exiled radical leaders is Leon Trotzky. He set out for Russia last mouth but has been detain ed by the English at Halifax. It is possible that Trotzky interpreted the new change of the people in Russia as making for peace and that he talked of leaving for America a possible ex planation for detention by the British. One recalls the many proclamations that have been issued the 30 months from the acknowledged socialist leaders. One sees above all the statements of radical socmialist leaders in the new government- In both sets of pronounce ments, it has been definitely stated that the workingmen's cause in Russia will be endangered by a Cterman victory and that any workingmen movement will now be treason to the comrades fight ing at the front. One can accept then the attitude of responsible leaders and ignore the rumors coming from German sources and the speeches of mere null viduals. CONGRESS AT WORK ' (Continued from page one.) Tortland, Or., April 13. Portland may hold today the naval recruiting record for the "entire country. During the week ending Thursday, 324 men enlisted in the navy here.

Officers of the British and French royal flying corps were detailed to the war department to assist in the rapid upbuilding of America's aerial serviee. Means of seizing, requisitioning or purchasing enemy ships in American harbors were being devised by Secre tary McAdoo and Secretary Redfield. These ships will be used in trans-Atlantic service and their total tonnage amounts to approximately two-thirds of the allied and neutral tonnage sunk by tierman U-boats since February I. The war department sent orders to all recruiting stations in the country to fill up the ranks of the regular army and national guard volunteers "for the per iod of the -war." Afraid of Bankers. The house debate on the bond issue bill developed expressions of tear lest Wall street gets its hand into the issue and derives fome "spoils." Representative Mason, of Illinois, urged popular subscriptions to the bonds. "We both voted against the war reso lution," he told Kitchin, "but now we've got to stay together. If we want to make this a popular war we must inspire the people's confidence, respect and admiration for the admin istration." Kitchin was "heckled" by many members who wanted tho bill to sav that the 3,000,000,000 to be loaned to foreign governments should be loaned only to countries at war with Germany and only during the war. A suggestion by Representative Pa bath of Chicago, that money loaned to allies should be spent only in the Unit ed States, was squelched. Representative Mann and others wanted to be assured that the street could not "thimble rig" the issue "and collect full value, for instauce, for Russian rubles that are worth only 50 cents on the dollar." To Avoid Commissions. Representative Ragsdale mentioned certain contracts he understood existed between them by which the allies agreed to pay commissions to bankers in this country on all bonds. "The bankers may hold the allies to this agreement," Ragsdalo said, "but if congress makes this impossible the allies will be able without violating their agreement to keep faith with the American people. We can make it im possible for Wall street to collect and hold up and bleed us at this time." There was go gag on debate. Hence the talk dragged. But it seemed likefy that by tomorrow night the measure was to pass the house and be sent to the senate. Representative Gardner,' Massachus etts, republican, pleaded today that congress ston "boggling" and asked that it give Wilson his army draft bill, bespoke permission tor Colonel Hoosc vclt or auyone else able to do so, to 1 lead a division in Europe, and urged that congress "rubber stamp" Wilson 's aemanas. , Would Let Teddy Go. "Don't try to tight a duel with swords at 30 paces," he said- "If Roosevelt or any other pied piper can whistle 25,00 fanatics after him, for heaven 's sake give him a chance. He '11 not make a botch of it. I "If the prtsident sits tight he'll get his army draft bill through by a big majority in spite of all the forces which are trying to fly speck it. " ) There is no material let down in -the , opposition to tho administration's se lective draft plan, however. There is a tendency to favor a compromise pro ' posal for testing out the volunteer srs i tern to an even further extent than the bill provides, and if this tails then re sort to the selective draft. President Wilson and Secretary Bak er, however, will stand by their guns and Chairman Chamberlain was hopeful today that this firmness would result in victory for the administration. .

A visit paid to Foreign Minister Mull cr by tho Dutch minister caused a re port that tho envoy had shown the government a cable from his govern ment that all inhabitants had been or dered to evacuate northern Holland, presumably because of a threat of Ger man invasion.
