The Henson House.

The Benson house met Friday morn
ing and Crawford's resolution to de-
clare vacant the seats of the twenty
seven unqualified members was called
up. Somers argued the question from
its legal standpoint AMI claimed that
this act would not be to expel the mem
bers, but simply to open the way to fill
their seats.
Huntington took issue with Somers.
He did not think tho house had a right
10 declare the seats vacant. 1t had a
right to notify the governor simply that
these men had failed to take ne oath
of Office and let him act accordingly.
There was some further discussion by
Nosler, Lake and Crawford, and it was
decided by vote of 10 ayes, 2 noes to
defer the matter.

Downing. Hopkins . company's Review
Of Trade.
The wheat market in Chicago last
week had strong tone early, rallyina
lc, and then breaking 10, the close be-
ing at loss Of ai4c from the close at
the end of the previous week. The
range on May was 7S a to n 7-sc, with
the close at 7SA to 70 Use. The for
eign situation afforded but little sub
stantial encouragement and the spot
trade in America was not broad enough
to force the upturn that the decrease in
visible supplies warranted. The condi-
tion of the trade in England Is shown
by the failure Of q grain house in Bris-
tol, who were long floating California
cargoes, the recent decline there OF l5c
from the high point being too much for
them. Foreigners, both on the conti-
nent and in England, are long, and are
placing great confidence in the strong
statistical position. All the foreign
papers are filled with bullish statistics,
and have been for the past ninety days.
Those sent uot lately have been a re-
hash of what the trade has been stuffed
with ever since the advance started.
There have been at least ten official
Russian crop reports, each differing
slightly from the other. There also
has been fresh estimate on the worlds 3
wheat crop, the Corn Trade News
latest making it 98,000, 900 bushels
short of last year. A few months ago
Beerbohm was out with an estimate OF
1876, 900, 900 bushels short. 1t is gem
orally conceded that the Argentine crop
is short. as at this time of the year
that country commences to ship heav-
lily, but last week it only sent about
1000 bushels, against 800, 900 bushels
last year. Bradstreets estimates that
the worlds available supply will be
$4,000, 900 bushels, against lo5, 900, 900
bushels last year, and 131, 900, 900
bushels in 1895.
Cash wheat is being held back all
over the world for higher prices, and

A SECRET CONFERENCE.
rhirty-one Were Present, but Accom-.
pllshed Nothing.

plished Nothing.
Thirty-one members OF the Mitchell
joint assembly met at the capitol in
Salem Monday and discussed the sena-
torial situation at length and in all its
phases. 1t was a secret conference, but
it is known that no formal action look
ing either to continued support Of
Mitchell or his withdrawal was taken.
Driver, Sommers, Patterson of Marion,
Taylor, Reed, Gowan, Nosler. David,
veness and others spoke, Some of
these advocated supporting Mitchell to
the end.
Taylor made several earnest talks. 1t
was to the effect that the interests Of
the Republican party were higher than
those of any one man; but he added
that the members of this conference
ought to have the right to name the
candidate, if it is seen that Mitchell
cannot be elected.
Reed wanted to fight it out on this
line if it took all summer. He did not
believe in allowing the minority to die
tate to the majority.
Senator Patterson, of Marion, thought
the thirty one could afford to hold out
in their present attitude, and he invit-
ed the opposition to clay on, Macduff. :"
There was some talk Monday that it
was the purpose of the opposition to
come in and organize the house during
the afternoon. But it was without
foundation.
While the number of absentees from
the Mitchell joint assembly was six,
there was just one voluntary with
drawal. That was Representative
Mitchell, of Marion.
Mr.. Mitchell is no orator and did not
think it necessary to set off any fire.
works in joint assembly, announcing
his purpose. He simply stayed out,
which is quite as effective as any way
of getting at it.
The Mitchell cause has suffered se-
verely through sickness. Representa-
tive Hudson, of Washington, who had
been in bed since last Wednesday, was
sent to the Salem hospital. His ply
sician says he has typhoid fever in n
mild form, and that he will probably
not be able to leave his room for several
weeks. Representative Wagner is i'll
at his home in Portland, and it is said
that it will not be safe for him to ven-
ture out for several days, if, indeed, he
can be here during the week. Repre-
sentative Vaughan is still quite sick,
but he may be able to answer roll-call
tomorrow, though this cannot be stated
with certainty.
The Davis house met at 11:45 Mon
day night. Sixteen members were
present. Adjournment was taken till
five minutes after IL. When that time
arrived, the house was again called to
order, and adjourned till $3.50 A. M.

The feature of Thursday mornings
session of the senate was the adoption
of substitute for the bill introduced by
Senator Michel relating to the con-
struction and operation of portage
railway from The Dalles to Cello. The
substitute was reported by Senator Har-
mon, chairman of the committee on
commerce and navigation, which COM
mittee had made visit to the scene
and personally examined the ground
over which the proposed road is to be
built. The substitute bill differs from
that proposed by Senator Michel in
that provision is made for the procure
ment of trackage facilities from the
Oregon Railroad g. Navigation Com
pany and the sale Of material now owned
, by the state in the event such trackage
arrangement with the O. R. & N. Co.
is made. 1t also reduces the amount
of the appropriation from $195. 900 to
$3.50, 600. Accompanying the bill was
the report of Civil Engineer S. L. Low
ell. He recommends that construction
OF the road commence at Big Eddy,
which is the head of navigation Mr..
Loyell's estimates on the cost Of the
road are as follows:
Roadbed, S74, ,025. 80; ties, $4,000;

Beware

sufferer from scrofulous affection Of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
Of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to re-
inoval OF the gland. Atthis critical mo.
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use, Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began TO disappear,
and now it is entirely goae, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years Of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience is like that of all WHO
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts TO the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces 1t out perma.
