Commerce building, Portland, oregon.l
The wheat traders success last week
depended upon the direction in which
he happened to be faced. If he looked
toward the west he made no money out
of the market. The influence of the
largest primary receipts on record kept
him of the buying side. He was lucky
il he resisted the temptation to put out
a short line. The operator who kept
his eye on the seaboard was the lucky
one. He saw there the largest export
engagements ever known, about mill
lion wheat day. II he did not have
some money to the good at the close
Saturday night it was because he has
no aptitude for the opportunities.
Chicago was inciend to be skeptical
Of the export figures. 1t was not doing
much itself, but the man who was
closest to the shipping position knew
that Duluth was. quality and freights
considered, cheaper than this market.
and that the seaboard also had grain of
its own bought on cheap freights that
could be sold ahead of Chicago offer
ings. The best export authorities
agreed as to enormous sales abroad.
Consequently there is no room for de-
NAL or for pretense that it is largely q
matter of exaggeration. Lohrke, whose
word is to be accepted in this matter,
in an interview yesterday. said the
business accomplished during the past
fortnight was on scale probably never
exceeded. This authority, when asked
as to the probable permanenoy of the
foreign demand, in an interesting ex-
PLANTATION showed how the foreigners
themselves were SO uncertain OF the sit
uation they were not venturing to specu-
late any on the bull side.
The wheat price this year is to be
matter of mood-the mood OF the farm
er TIE world over. If it were - be de-
cided by the facts as to supplies, the
bull, to have any success, would need
to make his purchases on the very
weak days. Every authority is agreed
that the worlds harvest last season was
the fullest ever known, and with that
alone in mind the speculator might
make comparisons with the low prices
OF the other years of great crops.

ROUGH ON Mr.. M. TOWLE
PROMINENT CITIZEN OF LAKE COUN-
TY ATTACKED IN COURT.
Breach and Divorce Suits

Hearing.

William K. Sullivan. of Chicago, receiver
of the American Building, Loan and In
vestment Society, yesterday instituted suit
In the Federal Court here to foreclose a
mortgage executed by Marcus NJ and Irena
,. Towle while the former was president of
the society and before the receiver was
appointed. Various other parties of Lake
county, Indiana, are made defendants The
receiver alleges that prior to his appoint
ment Towle, then president of the society,
executed mortgage on certain Lake coun-
W property to the association. Suisse
quently he mortgaged the same property to
Charles +. Bryans. who assigned the mort
gage to Edward +. Cragip. Cragin fore
closed in the Lake CfrcuffsEourt. Receiver
Sullivan discovered that the mortgage exc
cuted by Towle to the association had never
been recorded and that it had disappeared
from the society's papers when he came
into possession of the assets. He alleges
that Towle, as president of the society," had
access to the safe in which the mortgage
was kept with other papers. The receiver
asserts that if the mortgage had been prop
erly recorded it would have been a prior
and superior lien to that of the Bryans
mortgage, and he asks that the latter fore
closure be set aside. Towle is one of the
most prominent citizens of Lake county
and has been accounted a man of large
wealth.

Dennis O'Brien and John Egnew yesterday
visited the County Commissioners and

to discuss the situation. They represented
that while 701 United States licenses have
been issued, but 4S1 state and city licenses
have been taken out, leaving 220 that do not
pay anything except the federal fee. This
means they said, that 200 men fail to pay
the 800 state and $3.50 city license fees, thus
cutting off about $1,000 annual revenue
from the state and city. The commissioners
informed the saloon men that they had al
ready appointed license inspector to look
after the delinquent barrel house. keepers
and expected to take proper steps to rem
edy the evil. The saloon men called on the
mayor but he was not in They will see
him later and urge him to take steps to re-
