NEW WHEAT SITUATION.
Portland Market No Longer on an Ex-
port Basis.

Portland. Aug. 1.-THE Oregonian
win say tomorrow: The extraordinary
advances in the speculative grain mar
kets yesterday have given a new as
pect to the wheat situation in the
northwest. The market here, instead
of being on an export basis, is practi-
cally on a Chicago basis. The prices
offered for wheat for shipment east
preclude any possibility of buying on
European account. Based on Liver
pool quotations and prevailing freight
rates. club wheat would be worth
about rs cents here. Buyers. however.
have paid as high as IS cents, and
probably more, for this grade for ship
ment to the east. OF the 100000
bushels of wheat that have changed
hands since the season opened. it is
estimated that from 100000 to 500, 900
bushels are for the east.

Are Also Soaring.

Chicago. Aug. 17.-There was
burst of speculative wheat buying at
the opening Of the market far in ex-
cess of any previous day, which gath
cred strength with each succeeding
hour until all previous records for the
present crop were shattered. Early re-
ports from spring wheat territory were
not encouraging and northwestern
markets were stronger. Cables showed
foreign markets to have followed adj
vances on this side and there were indi-
cations Of foreigners purchasing in this
market. Buying orders far in excess
of offerings were in the market from
the start. September opened 1hq1hc
to 1%@1Ac higher. at s1.06h a 1.Q6%.
December was up at the start IN G2c,
at s1.OsA @1.07. Crop reports were
bad to start with, and became lament
able in their details of destruction by
rust OF whole fields. In many local
tiles farmers were reported engaged in
burning standing grain to clear land.
From the Dakotas Minnesota and
Ontario the same reports came. and
traders appeared to scent famine. Buy
ing furore set in in earnest. Only once,
soon after opening, when few long
lines were released, did the price go be-
low the opening range. The rest of the
trading appeared to be one frantic
scramble to buy. Not until the high
points, s1.Os for September and s1.10
for December. were reached was there
any marked halt in the advance.
At the top prices in the last hour
of trading scalpers threw quantities of
wheat on the market and in absorp-
ton of this prices lost some of their
advance.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 20
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon. who
takes a lively interest in Hawaiian
matters, has arrived here for the ses-
sion of Congress. He is very emphatic
on one point, that is the necessity of
a River and Harbor appropriation for
Honolulu
"I intend said Senator Mitchell to-
day at the Raleigh hotel ito do every
thing in my power to secure an ap-
preparation for Honolulu harbor Ho--
noluIu needs the improvement and
Congress ought to appropriate the
money. You can not express my senti-
ments too strongly on that subject.
We are going to have river and har-
Dor legislation this year and Honolu-
lu deserves good appropriation in
the BILL
rs that all the river and harbor
appropriation you intend to ask for
the Territory?" was inquired.
NO. replied Senator Mitchell.
Something ought to be done towards
the Improvement of the harbor at Hilo.
The need there. too, is great. I hope
w can set authority for a survey of
Hilo Harbor'
In tnau connection Senator Mitchell
said a letter had just been forwarded
to him from Mr. Peck, of Hilo, who
was at San Francisco and wanted to
know where he could meet him. Mr..
Peck stated his intention of coming
on to Washington where Senator Nit
cheH will be glad to see him.
When he was asked what other mat
ters for the Hawaiian Territory he had
in mind for the coming session of Con-
gress. the Senator replied:
Il have just arrived in town and
look into things much. The most I
know about is that appropriation for
Honolulu harbor. This is the session
you know said he with a smile,
when it behooves us to get busy for
appropriations. Therefore We must
make our great strike for Honolulu
Senator Mitchell inquired whether
there were any Hawaiian people yet
in town and asked also for other news
about the islands. He has been on the
Pacific Coast for the last four months
and feels very jubilant over the cleo
tions. While recognizing that there is
some sentiment for tariff revision on
the Pacific coast, Senator Mitchell fav-
ors doing whatever revising there is
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1904-12-08

to be done at the long session of Con
gress next winter.
HAWAIIANS NOT ON HAND.
Although several arrivals from Ho-
nolulu are looked for here daily no one
is vet on the scene. Secretary AtlSin-
son has not yet reported to the Inte-
rior Department, but a letter from
Governor Garter. serving as credentials
for the Secretary has already pre-
ceded him there. The department. is
awaiting the Secretary's coming before
taking any steps with reference to the
new issue of bonds.
Delegate Kuhio and Private Secre-
tary Mcclellan have pot yet come to
town, although the mail from the
steamer that brought them to the
coast has reached Washington. AS the
consideration by the River and Harbor
Committee of the House of the river
and harbor appropriation bill has been
postponed till next week. the Delegate
will be in time to speak word in
behalf of Honolulu If he so desires.
Mr.. William Haywood however, as
told in my last letter, has prepared
data and other information and has
already been assured a hearing by
Chairman Burton. 1t may not be
public hearing but should be by no
means less effective on that account
in securing the appropriation.
A PUBLIC BUILDING.
Senator Mitchell today spoke of the
necessity of a public building at Ho-
nolulu and said he should help along
an appropriation for that as much as
he could, if there was to be public
building legislation at the approach
ing session.
Thus far it is impossible to forecast
the prospect of public building legis-
lation. A report has gone abroad that
there will be no new buildings author
lied especially in view of the large
sums that are to be appropriated for
rivers and harbors and also because
the Office of the supervising architect
of the treasury Is already overworked
in putting up the buildings now au-
thorized- Speaker Cannon is the man
who will have the final word on that
subject and he has not yet come to
town. There will be pressure upon
him from many directions to allow
public building bills to be considered
The final proof of Governor Carters
annual report is now at the Interior
Department but the report has not yet
been made public.
Little of the important legislation for
Hawaii this winter will come before
the Territories Committee of the House
or the Pacific Islands Committee of the
Senate. being largely confined to the
committees in charge of general legis-
lation in which the rest of the country
is also interested

TESTING FLOUR AT MILLS.
Sample Is Taken and Made Up Into
Bread as Soon as Grain
Is Ground.

1T is surprising to note the diff
ference that exists between the
various brands of flour" said o. D..
Hutchinson, the representative Of
one of the big mills in MinneapO-
lis, Mimi, reports the Milwaukee
Sentinel. 1T all depends on how
the -four is milled and on the kind
of wheat from which it is made.
Flour made from hard spring
wheat will give from 20 to 40mOre
lOaves of bread per barrel than
that made from the softer winter
wheat. 1t contains a larger per-
centage of gluten and absorbs
more water. The mills are ex.
ceedingly careful about the kind
OF flour they send out, and the
testing department is one of the
most important branches.
after the -four is ground comes
the crucial test. A sample is tax
en- and made up into bread. We
have four bakings a day, and from
20 to 30 lOaves are baked each
time, each M representing a
sample of -four. After the test
has been made the bread is turned
over to the associated charities.
you may have noticed that the
color of -four is no longer a marble
white, but a creamy white. This
comes from the fact that the rich
portion of the grain, right under
the woody coating, is ground into
the flour. What is left can hardl,
be called bran, for it is only the
coarsest part of the outer fiber

DUCK in DEADLY FORM.
French Dish That Is Not Recon-
mendabls as Hot Weather
Diet.

A short time ago the death was
announced of COmte Leon de Lau-
beskin from the effects Of eating a
dish of duck a la Rouennsise.
states the Paris Messenger. Duck
a la Rouennaise Is considered very
deadly during the hot season for
the following reasons: In order
to prepare the dish according to
the recognized rules. the duck
must be killed by suffOcation. 1t
happens, therefore, that the blood
coagulates in the body of the bird
In such a manner that no amount

we have had lately, this cOagulat.
ed blood would decOmpose and
contain sufficient poison to kill
anyone eating of the dish. The
moral of the story would appear
to be: Don't have your ducks
cooked a la Rouennaise.

GREEN DIAMONDS FOUND.
Klerksdorp in the Rand, South Africa,
the Point of Recent
Discovery.

Considerable interest has lately
been aroused in Johannesburg by
the discovery on a mining prop
erty at Klerksdorp of a green dia-
mond of about three-quarters
karat. The gem had slipped into "a
crevice in the iron plates of the
crushing mill, and was found dur,
ing the dismounting of the mill to
make room for a new stamp bat
terry.
In 1893 over 20 similarly colOred
diamonds yer found upon the
same property. They had all
slipped between the dies and es-
capped destruction. 1t is conjec.
tured that many other green
stones got crushed out of exist
ence.
For the first time since the date
the Klerksdorp c. and ID. company
intends to resume operations on
this particular ground, and the
prospects of unearthing more of
these green gems are being eager
ly watched from the Rand.
