to this plan the difficulty Of securing
convictions of persons of standing and

to risk themselves before IL Jury of

judicial officer, having the lscrctiom-
airy power of Il money or Il criminal

drawing the money penalty in ngSri-

it is satisfactory. the Legislature will

Weak Wool Market.

f. Y. Judd, of the Pendleton W DOL
Securing & Packing Company, writes
from the East that the recent organiza-
tion of the worsted mill trust has de.
moralized the wool market and is
largely responsible for the decline in
the price of wool. as buyers are at sea
as to the future action Of the trust and
are unable to determine what their
own action is to be. Mr.. Judd says
that this trust alone will consume
100. 900, 900 pounds of wool annually,
which is one-third Of the total annual
product Of the country. The wool
trust has not yet entered the market,
and have given no hint of their inten-
ton. As soon as the uncertainty OF
their action is removed the market may
have firmer tone and it may not. The
outlook for wool this year is not the
best, as everybody is timid on de.
clining market.
