John Lambert Talks Of Crop Situation
Results From Foreign Shortage
May Options Boom.

New York Commercial: John LAM
bert according to a special dispatch
from Chicago to the New York News
bureau. Is quoted as follows on the
crop situation:
THE situation on corn IL In every
way entirely satisfactory. and from
present Indications we will have the
largest crop we have had IN years.
There will be a fair crop OF oats and
more than an average of barley and
rye, and while II may be true that
wheat win fall off iOO.OO0OO0 bushels
from the large crop OF last year, II VIII
still be above an average crop.
"The lowest estimate Is 5s0.O00,OOO,
but a great many people with excel
lent sources Of information believe the
crop will be nearer 6SO,OOO,OOO bushels
than 5SO,OOO,OOO bushels
TN any event, we are sure to see
dollar wheat. The crop damage abroad
is admittedly rs per cent and TO make
up the shortage they will require at
least 25O.OOO,OOO to SO0.OOO.OOO bushels
OF wheat TO come from somewhere,
Last year our exports were In the
neighborhood Of s15O,OOO.oOO bushels
They are certain to be more than that
this year, II we have the wheat 10
spare. but 1t does not look as II we
would.
"That being the case, II Is the opin-
ion OF the best judges that May wheat
will sell at great deal above 81 per
bushel and the nearby options are
likely to pass the 81 mark before the
September option has expired.
This condition should not hurt the
railroad stocks. but on the contrary
should be the biggest kind Of bull
argument for all of our securities"

he said. "This Is the least the gcvern-

and as II is for services rendered, II

Senator Galllnger asked Mr. Pratt II

Il do not, They were bought to meet
an emergency and that has passed
They ought to be sold and the gov
ernment should patronixe private lines

tions, and the destruction Of her peace
able system of civil government, for
which has been substituted state Of
lawlessness and despotism.
I'VE are aware that the Finnish peo-
pie, in spite of all means of compul-
sion, still regard, in accordance with
the declaration of their representative
body, the Russian military ordinance.
ed through forceful methods, as
illegal and unlawful. And even though
some sort of a representative body
might be convened by compulsory
ways and means, as is the intention at
for the purpose Of approving
all these violations of law, we still
know that the Finnish people, as long
as the present conditions prevail in
their country, can neither be nor are
they even in such a position as to be-
come responsible in any manner for
the actions Of this prospective con-
gress."

Medical College Graduates Not Com

Atlantic City. N. j.. Aug. 9.-The

maneuyer on the part OF Kuropatkin
In probably rendered necessary by the
realization that the Japanese have de-
signs on his main column with the pur-
pose Of cutting Il In two and perhaps
accomplishing another Sedan.
The news by way OF st. Petersburg
is meager. but Il indicates that much
more has occurred than Kuropatkln
admits, or, rather, than is given out
by the authorities aa coming from the
front. II is plain that the Russians
are still retreatlng and that the psyche
logical moment OF collision has not arr
rived. II is important that Kuropatkin,
shall avoid anything like a flank at
tack and as this Is a favorite maneu-
yer OF the Japanese, Il is probable that
the Russians are forced TO retreat in
order to save their columns from sep
aratlon.
The dearth OF news from Port ARE
thur indicates that the situation there
Is not developing sensationally. Most
Of the military experts believe It will
take considerable time for the Jap
anese TO accomplish anything, but no.
one now appears to entertain any
doubt that Port Arthur is doomed or
that important Russian bases to the

TACOMA WANTS SUBSIDY
FOR AMERICAN SHIPPING
Merchant Marine Commission Holds
Hearing In Another Puget
Sound City.

New York Commercial; Testimony
given before the congressional mer-
chant marine commission by business
men shippers and others interested IN
shipping from this part of the PUGET
sound country. during the hearing held
last week. brought out the fact first,
that remedial legislation is absolutely
necessary if American bottoms are to
be utilized for American cargoes, and.
second. that representative citizens OF
Tacoma who have studied the COM
plex problem are unanimously of the
opinion that national aid for the mer-
chant marine of America should take
the form OF subsidy rather than diff
ferential duties. the plan that found
such warm and influential support
among the shipping interests OF the
Atlantic seaboard.
The building up of direct routes by
sea with the markets OF the world and
the countries that offer market for
American goods had Its advocates at
the hearing. just as the same sugges-
tion has been discussed at other hear
ings held by the commission. The ex-
tension of American shipping by the
establishment of new mail, military
and other routes. or the establishment
of system OF differentials to make Il
to the interest of the shippers to i'm
port their cargoes In American bot
toms in indirect shipments, said to be
an old and popular plan. was also
advocated by some as possible bet
terment for the solution of the prob
lem.

BAD FOR SMALL LoceERs.
Failure OF Combination May Force
Them to the Wall.

Portland Telegram: Failure OF the
loggers Of the lower Columbia 20 agree
on restricting the output Is likely "a
result In the smaller firms going 10
the wall" said a well known timber
land owner today. 'The present out
put OF logs Is about 100000 feet
daily. while the sawmills OF this re-
gion use only about 100000. This
shows daily surplus OF 100000 feet,
and this surplus must pile up until the
logs are sold at sacrifice.
The final result iwll be logging
pool, composed OF the largest logging
firms. This pool will handle and dis
pose OF all logs cut and the outsiders
can find no market for their logs at
any price.
"The same dilemma faced the log
gers of Wisconsin few years ago,
Logs were dumped into the river too
rapidly for the mills TO take care OF
and they had TO be sold for less than
the cost of production. Finally pool
was formed, In which number Of
sawmill men were stockholders. and
this pool paid whatever II liked for all
logs dumped into the Chippewa river.
The small loggers had been frozen out
or nearly so. and all attempts on the
part OF independent loggers to break
the pool failed. Some mills down the
river agreed to pay more than the
pool allowed, but how Is the logger
with million feet or so going TO get
his logs through 20.00O.000-foot
gathering OF logs belonging to the pool?
He would come out al the lower end
Of the larger raft with only a few
thousand feet OF his original stock
at best.
"of course. the lumber industry may
pick up and the demand from the out
side become such as to allow the Co
lumbia river loggers fair margin Of
profit. but until such change takes
place the business OF logging will be
precarious one"
Loggers OF the lower Columbia have
been complaining for some time over
the price received for their logs, and
over the manner In which the mill men
have scaled the RATS, and so an or
ganization was attempted TO reduce the
output and improve on the manner Of
scaling. only about 35 per cent Of
the logging output responded to the
call, and OF these large proportion
was against signing any agreement
II was conceded that the Weyerhauser
Logging Company had large areas Of
burned timber in the Washougal dis
trict that must be logged off In or
der to save 1t from decay. This COM
pany could not afford to stop logging
and should all other logging firms quit
It would be simply handing over the
logging business Of the river to a cor
poration that could double or treble
its logging capacity and furnish logs
for every mill in Portland and vlcin-
lIty. The loggers therefore despair OF
any organization and each is simply
'hoeing his own row and dumping logs
into the river at So to $3.50 per thou
sand when he thinks 50 should be about
the figure. All ideas Of organizing a
doned.
