IDENTIFYING THE DEAD.
Precautions taken by British SOL

Precautions Taken by British SOL
diers Before coin3 Into rat;Ic.
The names CT the British killed aad
wounded after battle are ascertaineI
by means Of the Identification cards
which all our soldiers carry ed UP
in the left hand corner OF their khaki
tunics.
On the card are written the soldiers
name, rank, regmcntal number, to-
gether with the name and address Of
his next of kin. The latter are added So
that the authorities may know where
to forward the effects of any soldier
who gets killed.
After an engagement the roll is called
as soon as the regiments get back to
their camp. Every man who does not
answer is "ticked off, as missing. and
search Is made for him on the field.
AS the search parties come across the
dead and wounded men they rip open
the tunic at the left hand corner and
take out the Identification card.
The cards thus collected are carried
back to camp and handed over to the
clerks Of the general in command, who
therefrom compile the casualty lists.
After all the cards have been collected
the roll is checked again and note
made of those men of whom no trace
has been discovered. These are usual
ly presumed to have been taken prison
ers. but 1t does not always follow that
the assumption is correct.
In the corner of this tunic opposite
the identification card every soldier
carries small pad of banda ges, etc.
for dressing wound. This ''field
dressing" as it is called, is added to
"Tommy's" equipment in order that he
may be his own surgeon until medical
assistance arrives or may have the
wherewithal on him to bind up the
wounds of chum.
You will probably be surprised to
learn that one of the last things Tom
my" does when ordered to the front Is
to make his will, although every reSi-
ment contains percentage of happy
go lucky fellows who do not worry
themselves about what will become Of
their property when they no longer re-
quire it.-Londou Mail.

THE HOP SITUATION
A Portland Paper Says the Combine
Is On Its Last Legs.
Meanwhile the Associations salem
Agent Reports Two Sales at Six and
p Six and a Half Cents Pound ke-
speetively.

Portland Telegram. Feb. "a.
Local hop dealers outside Of the com
bine claim that the Oregon Hop Grow
ers' Association is on It's last legs, anc
that pooled hops are "being sold from
under it,"
Association officers laugh at these al
Legations, and say that the shoe pinchei
the other foot. The two sides are still
/ cking horns over the matter Of prices,
and as a result very few hops are NOV
ing.
The board Of directors Of the associa-
ton will hold a meeting at Woodburn
n .xt Saturday to perfect arrangements
fr the purchase Of burlap, sulphur,
tsine, etc.. for the members Of the pool.
Portland dealers evince keen interest
IN the com ing meeting at Woodburn
and claim something will probably hap
D N, though what, it is they are not
prepared to state.
As an evidence Of the ociation's
legged coming dissolution, it is claim
e by outside dealers that the market
Is more demoralized than ever. The
market was ~ cents of during the
past week, they claim. In the HANDS
OF dealers in New York state they as
sert, are 10000 bales Of new and extract
hops. The latter are hops made into
extracts and mixed with new hops for
brewing purposes. It is further alleged
that 1000 bales Of "old olds" were
I'D in New York market last week at
s. a bale, or about 3 cents pound.
To controyert these statements associ-
alton dealers point to the sales just
made in Salem. The price, they say, is
considerably more than dealers quote,
or would allow growers. The officers
r ilerate the statement that the outside
dealers, driven almost TO frenzy by the
I ct that the association has pooled all
the choice hops, and is in u position 10
h I'D them for better prices, are en-
d avoring to wreck the combine and get
growers TO Withdraw their hops. II is
claimed by the association that thereare
2 1000 bales remaining unsold, in the
state and that 10000 Of these are pooled
by the association.
The dealers claim there are from 40,-
D 10 to 5000 bales, and deny that the
A ISOLATION has all Of the choice hops
within It's control.
Each side says very uncomplimentary
Aings about the other, but all alike
light shy Of making direct charges over
heir own signature. One dealer said he
lid not care TO be quoted because he
expected 10 handle pooled hops when
lie association "busted" and he could
lot afford to antagonize those who
night have the say Of their dieposal

NEW YORK MARKET.

About the same influences that nave
controlled the market for some weeks
pist are still present, and there does not
seem 10 he material change either Ia the
volume OF business or the range OF
values The brewing trade keeps up
fairly we'll, considerable lots being de-
livered on old contracts, and some new
sales making every day. There is un-
doubedly less interest on the part Of ex'
porters, which is probably due to the
difficulty in obtaining desirable qualti'
ties IL the hops we're better shippers
would certainly take more OF them.
Practically nothing doing between deal
ers not much stock is Offering and those
who need additional supplies 20 into the
interior 10 secure them. Choice hops
are already quite scare; there are few
or no high grade State left and scarcely
in the way Of Pacific Coast
hops are worth over l3c, except sono'
mas, a few Of which are still bringing
l3K@l4c. The bulk Of the remaining
lots from all sections are valued at S@ &c
while some poor lots can be had for less
A moderate quantity Of stock has been
purchased in the interior during the
week at from 5@l0c, latter extreme.
London cables firmer market, and we
are advised that the recent sharp adj
vance on the continent has influenced
some Of the English hop factors to send
back a quantity Of the German stock
that was imnorIed early in The season.
