NINE AND A QUARTER CENTS.
That was the Price of Chittim Bark
Tuesday Noon.

The price of chittim bark is
booming. The past few days has
been strenuous time for both buy
ers and sellers and the end is not
yet. There is much maneuvering
and sparring for advantage among
all parties interested. and it is diff
cult to state the exact situation.
Bark was selling at 4 and AZ cents
week ago and the price gradual
ly came up to S and 6 cents. The
latter was regarded as high price
for the product and much of it was
disposed of at that figure. But the
price continued to go up under the
influence of competition until and
81 cents was offered. At the lat
ter figure large quantity of bark
was sold in Corvallis. Then 81a
was said to be the price in Corval-
lis, but it wat rumored that a bet
ter figure was offered by buyers in
Alsea and Toledo, and only half a
dozen sacks, so far as known to the
TIMES, was bought at that price
Soon after noon yesterday it was
announced that w. w. Taylor had
sold load for e4 cents per pound
Still some sellers think the price
may go higher, but on the other
hand. what if it tumbles?
A s. s'eek-looking stranger stole
over into the Alsea country the last
of the week and bought up a large
quantity of chittim at 6 cents. Just
how much of it will finally be de-
1ivered to him remains to be SEEN.
The advance is strong induce
ment to crawdsh.
About half the crop has been
disposed of.
WHEAT IS SEVENTY FIVE CENTS

WHEAT IS SEVENTY FIVE CENTS
Farmers on the Coast Profting
Heavy Oriental Shipping.

The price of wheat in Corvallis
has reached rather an encouraging
point. During the past two days
farmers have, been able to realize
Is cents per bushel and many grow
ers are allowing their crops to go at
that price. Freight conditions on
this coast last year and more par
ticular1y this season ale favoring the
wheat grower more than for many
years past, due mainly to heavy
importations from the Orient and
the consequent necessity of out
ward cargoes. The price of wheat
varies somewhat in different parts
of the valley. but the farmer here
is now realizing as much for his
grain as the grower who markets
his wheat in New York or Chicago.
The market of Portland, San Fran
cisco and New York are so nearly
together that they may be said to be
practically the same. there being
more or less variation in the price
for spot wheat and that for future
delivery.
Yesterday valley wheat in Port.
land was quoted at SO cents per
bushel. As it costs 10 to II cents
per bushel to transport the wheat
to that point the market price here
should be 6S to 10 cents. Owing,
however. to competition among
buyers the price here would seem
to be S to 7 cents above the market
value.

MARRIED FIFTY YEARS.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. jacobs Celebrated
Their Golden Wedding.

On the 23rd ofsAugust 1888, Mr..
and Mrs. M. Jacobs were united in
the holy bonds of wedlock in New
York city. A half century has
passed since then and their6ftieth an
niversay was appropriately celebra-
ted at their home in this city last
Sunday. There was no public
demonstration; but the immediate
family and near relatives gathered
around the old familiar home to
commemorate the passing of the
dftieth mile stone of their happy
welded life. 1t was a. pleasant
event and an occasion for much re-
joicing and the hymeni4l knot was
retied with golden strings. MIR. and
Mrs. Jacobs have lived in Corvallis
for over forty years and their friends
are measured by the large circle of
ther acquaintance, who join the
Timesin extending hearty congrat-
ulations and wishing them many
more years of health and happiness.
Congratulatory kilograms were re-
ceived from all quarters and the
floral offerings in cut flowers and
potted plants were profuse and
beautiful. There were also many
appropriate gifts in gold, and many
other valuable presents from rela-
tives and friends in token of their
good wishes and hearty congratu-
lations.
This another important event in
their lives has passed. The VOWS
that bound them on the shores OF
the A t1antic have been kept sacred
tor fifty years, and while life's sun
is still high in the beavens, yet it
seems suggestive that in their de.
clining days, they celebrate this
important event on the very brink
of the Pacific,

MAINSAIL H1lSTED.

As soon as the crew returned from a
hearty breakfast, they all tailed on TO
the halkyards OF the mainsail and by $50
the great sail was mastheaded for the
firts time. But Capt Barr did not like
the set OF II exactly, so 1t was Lowered
and the foot hauled out bit on the
boom.
The mailsail was again hauled up, the
crew working like beavers TO get II

set fairly we'll but the leach tapped bad

In the meantime Commodore Bourne
came into the harbor- -from-New York on

anchor a few hundred yards ahead OF the
Reliance. The Commodore PAID short
visit 10 Mr. Iselin on board the Sunbeam
but returned 10 the Flagship about 9:l5.
At this time the sky was completely
overcast, while over in the west a little
rain squall was in evidence.

three miles an hour so that most OF the

COMPROMISE REJECTED.

Philadelphia, April 2a-Local unions aff-
Hated with the Brotherhood OF Carpen-

eI the compromise offered by the master
carpenters relative to the new wage scale

strike will be ordered, affecting nearly
1900 men.
The action OF the brotherhood has been
supported by the Amalgamated Assocla-
tion OF Carpenters which is affiliated
with the council OF allied building trades
and the support OF the latter Is assured.
The Brotherhoods demand Is for 20
cents an hour after May 1. The master

OUT OF THE HANBOR.

The Reliance was an hour getting out
OF the harbor and while she was drifting
along the crew changed the working top
sail for a very small clubtopsail. The
slackening OF the mainsail along the
leach was due To a considerable extent- to
the absence OF battens, others Of the big
yachts carrying three or four. SUI the
Reilance's sail was badly puckered along

would have TO be altered to some extent.

WITH SPEED AND EASE.

II was a little beat down to Prudence
Island, so a half dozen short bitches
were made. In the light air the Reliance
tackled inside OF 20 seconds with ease and
gathered headway very quickly. AS she
slipped along there appeared scarcely a
ripple astern so clean did she leave the
water. She had all OF the Herreshoff
characteristics OF moving fast In very
Light breezes
Before the Reliance reached Prudence
Island the wind had worked into the
southwest and freshened up 10 about
four miles an hour giving a still further
beat down the bay. The No. ] jib top
sail which was ho.sted at first was
changed TO baby J4b. Although the
wind was light and shifting II looked
from shore as II the Reliance sailed
within four points of it.
The fiat floor forward appeared TO kick
back quite nttle water so that there
was considerable fuss under her bows
But at this time the boat was not heeied
much, In fact her stiffness tn light airs
seemed one OF her characteristics.- BY

as the southerly end OF Prudence Island,
tacking fast and making great progress
In the light air.
