Texas Congressman Makes
Comp|alntto Treasury
BANKS BORROW OWN MONEY
AFTER REFUSING TO DELIVER
BALANCES DUE, NEW YORK
FlNANCiERS LOAN CREDl.
TORS At HIGH RATE.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Assertion
was made by Congressman Garner Of
Texas today that the banks of New
York We're still refusing to send Tex
as banks the balance due them. He
declares that Texas banks placed large
amounts of coin in New York banks
just prior to The panic at six per cent
as balances against which they could
draw. These balances have not been
returned despite requests but the same
banks have loaned Texas banks cash,
perhaps their own money, at 40 per
cent. These and other fac,s We're called
to the attention of Secretary COrtelyou
who made a trip to New York yester-
day to demand three and one-half
millions of money deposited with the
bankers which he wishes to redistrib-
ute ir. the south and west.

100 MILES OF
TRAIL FINISHED
CREW OF THIRTY MEN HAS BEEN
AT WORK ON WENAHA RE-
SERvE<FOR TWO MONTHS.

More than 100 miles %of trails have
been built. on the Wenaha forest re-
serve this fall, according to Forester
Schmitz, who is directing the work.
These trails are being made eight feet
in width where there is no bad grad
ing to be done. Where they are cut
or. steep hillsideS and a great deal of
work has to be done to make them
passable, the trails are cut but three
feet wide.
While we have done well this fall
in cutting the 100. miles of trail, yet we
hope to get 100 more done before we
quit. More than 80 men have been
working on the reserve for two mon hs
and the trails are being put in good
condition. This will greatly facilitate
travelling over the reservation AMI thus
will aid the work of the rangers ma
terially.
I'VE have been working on the high
lands and as soon as snow comes we
can go down to the lower levels and
thus keep at the work for a much
longer time. 1t is possible, however We
may not be able to finish more than
so miles more this fall.
All the sheep and most of the cattle
have been taken from the range into
winter quarters. There are yet some
cattle in the canyons which will not
come out until driven by the snows
But most of the stock has been off for
some time.
The reserve is in good condition,
the grazing having been carried on un-
der the proper restrictions the past
summer, and grass is appearing where
it was thought to have been killed long
ago. Besides the trail work aid getting
things ready for winter, there is no:h-
ing being done on the reserve and lit
tie of interest will happen until
spring"

"As the result of the last fair, the
progressive spirit of Walla Wallans as

COMPLAINT BY
LUMBER DEALERS
SAY PROPOSED INCREASED RATE
WILL PUT THEM OUT OF
BUSINESS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE COM
plaint prepared by the North Pacific
Lumber association, charging discrim-
nation and illegal concert of action
against the western and northwestern
railroads, was filed with the interstate
commerce commission yesterday.
1t asserts that the Union Pacific and
other western and northwestern lines
by concert of action absolutely fix and
maintain freight rates on all~forest
products from the Pacific northwest to
eastern destinations.
1t alleges that the Great Northern
and the Northern Pacific dominate and
cOnuol the Burlington company
through ownership of Its stock; that
the Union Pacific dominates and con-
trolls the Oregon Railway & Naviga-
ton, the Oregon Short Line and
southern Pacific by virtue of owner
ship cf a majority of their capital
stock and by other devices and ar
engagements, so that there is no COM
petition between them; that the South
ern Pacific dominates and controls the
Oregon * California and the Corvallis
q Eastern companies through owner
ship Of the majority of their stock py
lease or otherwise
Rates Have Been Advanced.
II is asserted that the railroads have
advanced rates five to ten cents per
100 pounds, effective on November 1.
Oh all forest products; that the rates
are excessive. extortionate. prohibltlve
and discriminatory and that if exacted

SENATOR ANKENY
TO LEAVE SOON
WALLA WALLA'S MEMBER OF UP.
PER HOUSE GOES THE LAST
OF THIS MONTH.

According to his present. plans,
Senator Ankeny will leave for Wash
ington, d. c., some time the last of
this month. Mrs. Ankeny will accom-
pany the senator and Miss Harriet An
keny, who is visiting in the east, will
join them in the capital city.
Asked about what legislation of ma
tior.aI Importance would probably be
made this winter Senator Ankeny said
last night:
There is little, l think, of really
vital Importance to the nation to be
done this winter. 1t is too near the
presidential campaign to make any
radical changes. For this reason,
think there will be little done in the
way of tariff revision. Just what other
legislation will be taken up, l do not
know, but / think there will be little of
real Importance.
DO you think anything will be done
to relieve the financial situation
throughout the United States?" was
asked.
1T will probabIysBe too late to do
anything about the situation by that
time" was the reply. Il think by the
trouble will have passed over apd a
solution will have beer worked out by
a natural process. l consider that the
erous and is alarming only in that
people are becoming frightened with
out cause"

n. P. RELIEVES
CAR SHORTAGE
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE CARS OF WHEAT
SHIPPED.

AS the result of the strenuous ef
forts of the officials of the Northern
Pacific 10 relieve the car shortage
situation, the Inland Empire is being
flooded with cars and the grain is be-
ing shipped out in large quantities.
Last night and yesterday more thar
125 cars of wheat went from this ely
to the main line at PascO and more is
being sent out today and tonight.
Many complaints have been register
ed by grain uealers and shippers and
the Northern Pacific has made big
effort during :he past few days to re-
Geve the situation and has succeeded.
I'VE have pleLty of cars said AS
sistant Division Superintendent j. G.
Cutler this morning. The only thing
we fear now is getting too many on
hand. We have plenty for all purposes
and we viii ship on, al the wheat ord
cred in a few days"
Owing to the fact that money is
scarce lately, there has been little buy
irg going on and when the present
shipments which have been ordered
nave been made there will be a dull
ness in the wheat buying and shipping
ACTIVITY and fewer cars may be needed.
This is, Of course. providing the money
market does not loosen up and the
wheat buyers get bYsy again. The
Portland Touring Mills and other large
exporters are beginning to buy and if
the market becomes active there is lit
lie prospect of congestion of empty
box cars in the Inland Empire, for the
present at least.
