The Markets.

The wheat market has made quite
sharp advances since the month opened,
the local price running up from 81 cents
TO SO, and as high as "a cents, for few
Choice lots. The quotations in London
are cent and half higher than week
ago. By most dealers it is thought the
advanced rate will not be maintained.
In Portland the change is not noticeable.
and the Valley has failed to get the bene-
fit of an advance. It seems that the ad-
vance has served to wipe out the differ
ence in price between Valley and Walla'
Walla, wheat selling here at the same it
is bringing in Salem.
The question of feeding wheat to stock
has become national one, and valuable
experiments are being or have been
made. AS the success of this movement
will affect the wheat market seriously
and find means of disposing of
troublesome surplus, we give the result
of the examinations made by the Kansas
board of agriculture:
E'The general conclusion reached by the
Kansas board of agriculture are that
wheat is superior to corn, pound for
pound, as grain to produce healthful,
well-balanced growth in young ANIMALS
mixed with corn, oats or bran it is su-
perior to either alone for horses; is very
much superior to corn as a milk pro-
ducer when fed to cows; is profitable
food for swine of all ages, both as to
framework and flesh; and has a high
value as part of the grain rations for
cattle especially when judiciously mixed
with bran, oil cake, or other albuminous
foods, tending to balance the too car
bonaceous nature of the clean wheat. It
is superior food for fowls and cannot
be surpassed as a promoter of the maxi
mum of egg production. 1t is more
profitable in all cases to break the grain
by coarse grinding, rolling or crushing,
as perfect digestion is thus better assured.
When this cannot be done soaking for "a
or 36 hours is advised, but in this case it
should be fed slowly to insure thorough
mastication. On the important question
whether it will pay to sell the wheat or
feed it to farm animals, the board says:
with corn and wheat approximately the
same price per bushel, it is not unproft-
able to feed the wheat, yet, if it can be
ground, crushed, or in some way broken,
at total cost of not to exceed to Z
cents per bushel, to feed it whole is un-
wise.'"

The literary society will meet tonight
at s o'clock in the lecture room of the
Methodist church.
About $50 men are employed in re-
building Grant, Murray and Rufus. The
distillery is about completed and will
probably start up in couple of weeks.
Everybody can make their own cray

Rev. B. Wistar Morris, bishop of the
diocese of Oregon, will hold services in
st. Paul's Episcopal church, this city,
Sunday next at IL o'clock a. m. and at
1880 p. M.
The concert Tuesday night promises
to be the event of the season. 1t has
been well advertised and the fact that
Signor Ferrari one of the great vocalists
of the times is to appear, will undoubt-
edly cause a very large attendance.
Our neighboring iown of Grant is be-
ing strung along the railroad track from
the old site to Rufus. It has the same

in the anatomical construction of the

The city recorder had one individual
up for examination this morning. He
obtained permission to 'ssee man. to
get money enough to pay his fine, but
up to this writing has evidently not
found him. The presumption is fair
that the man he is looking for is DEM

back until some time next year.
A. ]. Carter, the man who took dose
of morphine yesterday morning for the
purpose of shuffling off the mortal coil,
got left in the shuttle, and this morning
is out of danger. His back is said to be
just one big bruise where he was pound

him awake, but as soon as these heal,
he will be '.as good as ever"

growers are to be ruined by transporta
ton blockades like the present one the
value of fruit and farming land must
inevitably decline as an investment
proposition. AS commercial member of
the community l can see no benefit result
ing from the lie-up except that it gives an
immense impetus TO Government owner
ship of all TRANSPORTATION and telegraph
companies, such as railway and electric
lines and express companies. Embar-
easements like the present one tend to lead
society to place commercial conditions
beyond the reach of further embarrass
ments. Such is the tendency of this
strike"
o. E. Mack, with Nolan & Cot seems
to me that the situation in regard to the
strike is about like this. The interests of
the public are very much like the crops
that lie in the path of two contendlng
armies. The owners of the crops may or
may not be interested in the outcome of
the conflict, but. whichever way it goes,
they have lost the results of their years
labor. The position of the railways seems to
be much like that of drayman who has
arranged to do the hauling of some COM
mercial house, and the driver of the truck
upon which he has been accustomed TO do
the hauling has struck and he has diff
Guilty in finding another. The house en-
ploying him urges him to use his lighter
wagons; but he says he purchased the
truck to do that kind of hauling with; i: is
every way more convenient and suitable
for that kind of work, and If he cannot
haul freight on the truck he will haul
nothing

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 3-The strike situ-
alton in the territory tributary to ST.
Louis is decidedly worse to-day. All the
A. r. U. men on the Western division of
the Wabash struck to-day, and the engi-
neers refused to work with "greenhorns." !"
On the Cotton Belt the a. R. U. men went
out during the night. leaving that system
in bad shape. The First regiment,
NJ. n. G., has been ordered in readiness for
service.
At East st. Louis all the warehouse la
borers have struck. closing every freight
house. Not single road on that side of
the river has complete switching crew.
The only road on this side which has been
handling its own business with its own
crews Is the st. Louis, Keokuk and North
western Division OF the Burlington. This
morning the switchmen and yardmen in
the St. Louis and Southern ST. Louis yards
of the Iron Mountain road returned to
work.
A dispatch from Moberly, No., says all
the A. K. U. men on the Wabash road
struck last evening. The trains in the
yards are tied up. Two trains delayed at
Decatur, Ill.,. arrived here last night Two
hundred and fifty engineers, fremen
switchmen and all the night road force
in the Wabash yards here went out last
night.
Attorneys of every railroad running into
st. Louis are holding conference for the
purpose of taking steps toward bringing
the strike to an end. Either petition to
the United States District Court will be
drawn asking for an Injunction against the
strikers or warrants for the arrest of the
leaders of the strike will be issued. Judge
Thayer has promised TO wait for them in

Not Appealed Forth

CHICAGO, July 3.-Prendergast, the as
Sassin of Mayor Carter Harrison. was de-
elared mot insane" by a jury in Judge
Payne's court this afternoon, and under
sentence of the court must be hanged
on Friday. July 13. The jury was out Just
two hours and five minutes. There was
much confusion in the courtroom among
the waiting lawyers and spectators just
before the jury came in, when movement
was noticed among the bailiffS. In few
moments Prendergast was brought in.
With him were six bailiffS. who stood
along the passageway back of where the
prisoner sat TO the door leading to the
bridge connecting with the Jail. Then a
hush fell upon the courtroom. Every one
seemed impressed with the solemnity Of
the occasion. Judge Payne took his plare
on the bench and the jurors filed into their
seats in the box.
Gentlemen of the Jury" said Judge
Payne, "Haye you agreed upon your ver-
dict?'
"Yes, your Honor" said Foreman
Charles B. Schneck.
Read the verdict" said the court.
The clerk unfolded the paper and read
in a distinct voice the doom of Prender-
CAST IN these words: I'VE. the jury, find
Patrick Eugene Prendergast not insane
nor lunatic."
The paper was signed by Foreman
Schneck and all the jurors. Attorney
Gregory asked that the jury be polled, and
as the name Of each juror was called they
affirmed that this was their verdict.
Then, addressing the jury, Judge Payne
said: Gentlemen. | want very much 10
thank you for the atten tion you have given
this difficult case and for the faithful man
ner In which you have performed your
duty. l want you to know that l appre-
ciate the deprivations you have undergone
during your confinement Gentlemen. you
are discharged"
Prenderaast sat unm owed during the
whole proceeding. He made no outcry,
and was at once removed TO his cell in the
jail. His counsel will move for a new
trial, and If this is not granted they have
EXPRESSED their intention of carrying the
matter to the Supreme Court. Messrs.
Darrow. Bartin. Gregory and Huron. who

sentative Of the Associated Press his
opinion OF the effect the injunction process
In the Federal court would have upon tho
boycott II have not been served with any
injunction" said Debs. "aud 1 want to say
distinctly that none OF our officers are run
ming away from any court process. The

seeks TO restrain the men from doing ex-
actly what we have always forbidden
them to do. The railway employees have
the unQuestioned right tol Withdraw In
dividually or in body from the servica
of the company, but they have no right
to interfere with others employed to
take their places. Supported as we are
financially and otherwise by all the labor
organizations Of the country, without ex-
ceptlon, we have no misgivings."
The attitude of the American Railway
Union in the present struggle has been as
sumed under circumstances of an irritat-
ing character, and the speech of President
Debs just before the strike puts the causes
for it before the public in an unmistaka-
BILE and plain manner. 1t is worth repeat
ing now. So far the confidence of Debs
in his followers has not been misplaced.
Whether his boasts will ever amount 10
anything more than words remains to be
seen.
II have perfect confidence in the Amer
lean people," said Mr.. Debs, "and believe
that they will uphold us in this fight.
Their shibb0leth is fair play. There is
not breath of free air in Pullman. nor is
there a man, woman or child who touches
his soil who can be called free. These
people are starving not because they will
not work. but because they may as well
starve idle as at work. There are no
towards in the American Railway UpioD.
Hereto tofore we have been on the defensive.
Now they have invited us into battle
and we accept the challenge. The Amer
lean Railway Union has had just eleven
struggles and it has won them all. The
Pullman strike will make an even dozen.
If. however. by any frightful fate the
American Railway Union should be de-
feated in this strike, let me tell you that il
will not be the end. There is OF man
in the American Railway Union that can
be bought. sold or bribed. appeal to the
people in this country to stand by US. fol
our fight is just"

unions, but I do not believe the strikers
have acted right in tying up the Western
roads. Let them settle the difference
where it originated, and believe they had
grievance there. Boycotting of workmeD,
too. is wrong and un-American.
Maison Richie. Justin Ladagnous-The
strikers are all wrong l am not op-
posed to unionism, but l don't believe
in Californians being made to suffer for
Pullman's sins. It's time to call halt and
submit to arbitration.
Stern Bros, piclCre-dealers-The trains
ought to have been moved without the Pull
mans pending a settlement of disputed
points. In order to sustGin the amour
propre of the Southern Pacific our farmers
are being ruined.
Marchand's Restaurant-Have not made
up my mind and know little or nothing
about the matter.
F. L. Helm, boot and shoe dealer-The
workmen are right A man is his
brothers keeper. and If men don't stand
shoulder to shoulder then monopoly will
gain the day. There is no reason what
ever why the trains should not have run
on regular time except the one fact that
in the present fight the defeat of the rail
roads means death to the corporations.
The werkmeu. if they don't win the fight
to-day, will tomorrow, and If not then
next day.
William John, cigar-dealer-I have no
doubt the strikers are fighting in just
cause, and they have, i believe, the SYM
psthy of the public.
Hampam Baths. W. s. Nichols-I SYM
pathize with the efforts of workingmen to
better themselves. but l don't believe in
tue unions assuming the power they do.
The power Of Que man to stop the rail-
roads Of the country from operating is too
dangerous power to be entrusted to any
man. At the same time l fully believe
the Southern Pacific to be acting in direct
contradiction to what is just and right for
the pesple of this State. Arbitration is
the only way to settle the matter.
j. Asch. cigar manufacturer-I have
every good wish for the strikers but do
net believe in the boycott. The fight is
between giants-cspital and labor. More
trouble will eusue if some method of
arbitration is not devised.
