Reduction is Appreciated,

Eugene-The recent action of the
Southern Pacific in lowering the ship
ping rates on fruit in and out OF Eu-
gene is generally appreciated here. The
change not only benefits the canning
and packing company, but indirectly
the man engaged in raising any kind of
fruit. Heretofore the cannery has linn
tied its output to certain varieties of
fruit that would also be in demand on
the market. Since the change of rates
the cannery wants all kinds of fruit.

NEW ELECTRIC POWER.
Italian Inventor Promises to RevoIu-
tionize the World.


New York, Sept. 3.-Confdent that
he is the discoverer of an electrical de-
wise that is to revolutionize the world
industrially and economically, Rattle
Bova, an electrical engineer, has come
from Carincia, Italy, for the purpose of
demonstrating before Americas best
experts what his invention will do.
1t consists of a small battery and
Transforming apparatus, which, he
says, will run the largest dynamos
without the use OF steam or other en-
ergy. He says it may be applied to
locomotives, steamships, lighting and
heating plants or anything where elec-
trical energy is employed. He calls
his invention the "auto vibro electrica
sorgente." In statement he says:
SIN building a fire one first must
have match. have discovered the
match of electricity, and with it start
the fire that continues to burn. In
other words, with a substance that may
be obtained anywhere for few cents l
originate the force that sets the dynamo
in motion and continues it in action
I am not relying upon theory, but have
made many tests in Italy through |
which l increased the ordinary force
manifold without the aid of steam or
any other power except what l obtained
from my small battery. I am using
the electricity which exists in all of
elements and which has hith-
erto been wasted.''

pronounced Coos county an ideal place
for the dairying business and expressed
the belief of possibilities of great in

COPPER DOWN IN ALL GRADES.
Selling Agencies Expect the Price to Go Up
as Finances Become Easier

There was another reduction of one-quarter cent
in all grades Of copper the Metal Exchange
yesterday making lake 1884 cents to IA cents; cleo
trolytic 1872 to 1874 cents, and casting lS'4
cents to 1872 There has been no reduction in
price by the big selling agencies. and represent
aves of the latter said they expected the price to
go up Instead of down. Walkers weekly copper
letter says Of the copper situation:
Copper is less active, out the market continues
firm. Lake IS ia cents to 10 cents pound, ana
elccJrOlytic is IiiR cents to l4aA cents A large
of lake copper has been sold at 10 cents; l
know Of 100000 pounds in lot Electrolytlc has
sold high 1888 cents. and possibly higher.
AT the present moment domestic consumers are
keeping in very close touch with the market, ana
producing interests feel very confident that things
have turned for the better permanently. one lead
ing producer says he thinks consumers are ready
TO purchase more copper now than can be supplied
from stocks in hand. He expects to get l6 cents
for the next lot he sells, and believes copper VIII
back to % cents a pound. All of the producers
seen this week report that the market has firm
tone
In view of the continued curtailment Of prOduc-
ton in Butte and other points the price OF cop
per is practically to be maintained at It's
present level, at least, throughout the remainder
of the year. As soon the stress OF the monetary
situation IS relieved there Will be a decided in
crease in the consumption OF copper, and Il would
seem that the combined production of all of the
mines operating TO their fun capacity, will easily
be consumed on a l5-cent market
