situation is very fat taken as a whole,
and holders of domestic wool are anxious
to sell where they can get any fair bids.
Reports from the new clip are coming
in freely, but buyers at this end can give
the grower little encouragement. East
ern buyers who are generally doing a
large business in the country at this
season of the year, are now at COM
plete standstill. They are not inclined
to pay within several cents per pound of
what their wool cost last year, and as a
result, are not doing much, as they fear
to name price, they will give in most
cases, but prefer to wait.
The outlook at present is not encourag-
ing in any direction. Latest reports
from Washington say that the president
has announced his determination. to call
special session of congress Sept. 1st or
earlier, and at that session the tariff will
be revised. This announcement will
settle the rumor that no tariff revision
would be attempted until the regular
session of congress, and will make de-
cided difference in the plans of wool
buyers. The mills are busy at present
on old orders, but they have covered a
good share of their business through
purchases of wool already made. Their
principal wants hereafter will beto pur-
chase wool against new orders taken,
and it is safe to predict that under pres
ent conditions no one will care to buy a
pound more wool than is absolutely
needed to be used at once. A revision
of the tariff means lower prices for wool,
and in addition to this very dull trade
until the market becomes settled to the
new order of events.
Lower duties on goods or not, will not
allow clothiers to hold entirely out of
the market until the revision on the tar
iff goes into effect, however, as they
have got to have some goods on hand all
of the time. They realize this and have
placed very free orders for all goods, but
the tendency will be- to purchase nc
more than they are absolutely obliged
to have. Whatever the after effect on
the market will be when the trade gets
settled down to the new order of things
there is no Disgusting the fact that while
the change is being brought about, ,busi.
ness will be seriously impaired, anC
this is what wool dealers are obliged tt
bear strongly in mind, when they are
making their fall purchases in the coun
try. With clothiers not ordering goods
and manufacturers only making VI
what are already ordered while prepar
| ing for the change, the outlook is for /;
small consumption of the raw material
and under these conditions it is NOR
than probable that values will have t.
rule very low to tempt operations
When the tariff has been revised SO tha
the trade know what to base operation
on, the market will settle itself to it
place in the worlds business, but in tn,
meantime the prospects are far from
encouraging.
General stocks of wool here are small
but at the same time prices are softer al
around and dealers are more anxious TO
business, eyen at lower quotations.

The CLANS GATHERING
Meeting Of the Republican National
League.
PRESIDENT cLARKsoN's ADDRESS
He Welcomes the Delegates in the
Name of Lincoln, Grant and
Blaine.
CLARKsON'S ADDRESS

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 10.-Al morn
ing delegations of republicans from dis
tant states have been coming in. The
galleries of McCaulley's theater were
crowded long before the National League
assembled, the audience including many
of Louisville's famous beauties. The
theater was tastefully decorated with
flags and banners, and the front of the
stage banked with flowers and tropical
plants. When all the delegates were
seated, the convention was called to
order by President J. S. Clarkson.
Mrs. Ellen J. Foster was present and
was greeted with storm of applause.
Mr.. Clarkson arose and delivered the
annual address. He said: ''We meet
here today in the name of the republi-
canism of Lincoln, Grant and Blaine.
This is republicanIsm, whose eternal
word is human liberty. 1t is fighting
republicanism, and all the world loves
man or party that believes enough
in its own cause to fight for it,
The speaker then dwelt at some length
on the transition which had been going
ON for 10 years toward younger men and
different methods in party management
resulting in league organization and
more diffused work. He hoped that
with the coming of younger men there
would be party of greater courage il
cardinal and larger tolerance in minor
things. A majority of the voters of the
United States, he said, were republican
on real republican issues. Too many
voters had been alienated by the
intolerance of morality. He asked tha
the platform be made so broad that any
man, native or foreign born, of an,
church, might find welcome in thu
| ranks.

MARKET REPORT.

THURSDAY, May IL, 1S93.-The activ-
ity in the markets is marked with an
improvement worthy of notice. The
volume oftrade has been more satisfac-
tory of late. Large orders have been re-
ceived from the interior and were filed
promptly and shipped. Prices remain
steady and all lines are in good supply.
An exception is made in sugar which
has advanced another u of cent dur
ing the past few days. The opinion
prevails that best grades will advance to
cents per pound in The very near
future. Coffee is reported to be firm on
the outlook, with an opinion of an ad-
vance soon.
The provision market is well supplied,
and prices for eggs are unchanged, with
good supply on hand. Butter is in
better supply and prices are lower.
Potatoes are still scarce and have very
firm tendancy.
| Poultry are offered more freely, but
quotations have not changed.
| Oats are very scarce and may be
quoted at $1.60 to $1.75 per GENITAL. Bar
| ley is more scarce, and good clean barley
is quoted at $1.10 per pound.
The wheat market is quiet, although
there is some movement. Prices have
varied from 531a to So cents during the
week. The Eastern and foreign mar
kets are not active enough to give any
interest or stimulating influence in the
markets. Portland quotes valley al
$1.17 to $1.221s, and Walla Walla al
| $1.1O to $1.1211s, with light movement
The wool market has not opened here
yet, though some buyers speak of 10 tC
| 1917 as the probable price for an open
ing.
We give the following clipping from
the Boston Advertiser of the % ult
which is a lcear statement of the WOO

SOME BIG WORDS.
EthnoIogy, anthropology and Ar
ehaology.
TRANSLATED, s'THE WORKS OF
MAN."

One of the Most interesting Exhibits to Be
Seen at the Worlds Columbian EXPOSE
tson-A Comparison of Heads-Mummies
from the Tembs eff the Incas.
WORLDS FAIR, May 10. = Especial. i
Ii goes without saying that the most inter-
esting study at the Columbian exposition
is nan himself. Here we have object
lessons not only in the man of the present
and his industrial and artistic achieve
ments, but graphic representatives of the
man of the past. Ethnology, anthropology
and archaeology are big words. To the
popular mind they suggest only dull and
dry scientific inquiry. But in fact they
signify studies which are not only interest
ing but fascinating. When it was decided
to have in the Worlds fair department
devoted to this purpose the professor nat
urally wanted it called by its proper scien-
tific title. The exposition managers, how
ever, said the words 'ethnology, ""anthro-
pology'' and Archaeology would repel in
stead of attracting the people. Was there
not some popular title that would do just
as wellp Possibly The professor would
see. A little later, with sigh for pro-
fessional pride cast down, he reported that
a popular Interpretation of the trio of big
words would be tsMan and His Works"
So, "Man and His Works. 1t is. This
may not be strictly accurate title, but it
sufices; besides, it doesn't drive people
away from the door.
This department has a building all of it's
own, a large structure on the shore of
Lake Michigan but little way from the
Convent of Rabida. There are sections Of
this building which o superstitious man
will do well to stay away from, and which
timid people should avoid. II is rather
startling, indeed, to look up suddenly and
find ones self surrounded by several thou
sand grinning skeletons and skulls. It is
no relief to pass along and at the next
step to find yourself in the midst Of a hum
dred mummies. The skulls are in two
principal collections. One is composed of
all the types Of those peoples known to
the anthropologist as s1ong-headed,"
while the other is devoted to an exposition
Of the characteristics and peculiarities of
the sshort-headed" people. Between the
two are a large number of queer heads, de-
formed heads, extraordinary heads that
can be assigned neither to one class nor
to the other. Here also are seen in great
numbers types Of the arti1cially formed
heads, most conspicuous among them be-
ing the skulls of the Flathead Indians of
the northwestern part Of eur own country,
who grew from infancy with boards

strapped tightly across their craniums.
But it is noticeable that this and similar
customs have existed among savage peo-
pies in many parts of the world.
For months doctors and medical stu
dents have been going through the public
schools of the large American cities meas
uring the heads and bodies of boys and
girls, Probably many who read this letter
have had their heads measured, and as yet
do not clearly understand the why and
wherefore All these measurements-and
many thousands of them were taken-ap-
pear here in a most interesting form.
There are diagrams and charts showing
the shapes of heads of American boys and
girls who have had the advantages of good
homes and educational development, and
these are compared with charts Of the
heads of children of less favored peoples.
Very interesting are the diagrams of the
heads in Japan, and the charts which
show the influence mental training has
had upon the brains of the boys and girls
in American Indian schools.
The munnnlies carry US back good
ways along the vista of time. There are
two or three hundred of them in all, and
they come from the tombs of the Incas of
Peru, from the caves of the cliff-dwellers
in Utah and New Mexico, from the burial
places of the ancient Egyptians and from
the graves Of the prehistoric people who
inhabited the region now known as Brit
ish Columbia. Except in two or three of
the great government museums of Eu-
rope no such collection of mummies as this
exists anywhere. The specimens from
South America, which are more numerous
than the other types, were collected by
Professor Dorsey of Harvard university,
who was employed for sixteen months in
the work. He and his assistants opened
1917 graves and tombs and obtained 1855
mummies. Some of the specimens were
obtained by excavation of great heaps Of
sand, and these are the finest in the lot be-
cause they were intact, with all their carv-
ings and paraphernalia. Nearly all the
ancient tombs in Peru have been ravaged
by the moderns who eagerly sought the
valuable trinkets of gold, silver and pre-
cious stones which were buried with the
bodies of the rich.
They are not pretty things, these num-
mics. They are ugly, almost, as death
itself. They show the remnants of their
teeth, the black strings of matted or
braided hair, the shriveled limbs often
without feet or hands, their eyeless eye
sockets IN q manuei cslcuidteo TO make
the blood run cold. The best specimen Of
the collection, already spoken of, was OBJ
viously man of considerable Importance
when he walked the earth something like
thousand or twelve hundred years ago.
Professor Dorsey told me how He" as
the mummy is generally called by the
men who work about the building, was
found:
"sHe' had evidently seen better days."
said the professor, "for he was not pitched
headlong into hole and covered over with
sand. as most Of his companions IN the
