immigration Falls of.

Nothing doing has been the
condition around the immigration
headquarters at Brownsville for
some time. there having been very
few immigrants arriving at this
port lately. The falling off in the
demand for labor incident to the
financial stringency is doubtless
the cause of the very noticeable
decrease in Immigration to this Sec
ton of the country. The same con-
dition, in fact, is reported at the
great Eastern ports, where, instead
Of the usual influx of immigrants,
the very unusual spectacle has been
afforded recently of thousands of
people emigrating from this COIN
try. As many as thirty thousand
steerage passengers were taken
from New York in one week lately,
being mostly foreign laborers who
had come to this country, but had
become dissatisfied and are now re-
turning to Europe. The expedient
of raising the price of steerage pass
age, it is said, was tried in order
to check the emigration movement,
but has been of no effect. The fact
that so many mines, railroad con-
struction companies and other in
dustries have curtailed the number
of hands employed by them, some
even having discontinued opera
tions altogether until the money
market shall improve, is doubtless
the cause of this movement.

Mountain Prices for Wood.

There has been an advance of $1.bO
per cord in the price of wood In the
mountains in the past go days. A
new record was set at Kamela yes
terday when $3.50 per cord on the
cars was paid for black pine and 1910
for yellow pine and fir. There are
dozens of wood buyers at Kameia
and they are buying or contracting
for everything in sight. They come
from Walla walla, Pendleton and as
far north as Starbuck. Seven cars
were loaded out from Kamela yes
terday and six from Spring Spur. The
average shipments per day from the
two points is now about 15 cars. And
II seems that the shipments are not
for the purpose entirely Of securing
n winter stock. There Is q normal
demand for large quantities even al
this season of the year.
I'D. Casey, Of Hilgard, who handles
about one-half of the wood output
from the mountains, received yester-
day an order from Walla Walla
brick yard for 200 cords at IS per
cord. This was evidently considered
n liberal offer and would have beer
n couple of months ago. There is nc
wood in the mountains that can nov
he had at any price, with the single
Exception of white fir, which Is con
sldered the most inferior of all WOODS
But even the white fir is taken whei
no other kind is availaDie.-L'

School OF the Line"

Leavenworth, Kas., Aug. 14.-on
the opening tomorrow Of the new term
of the Infantry and Cavalry School
at Forth Leavenworth the name Will
be changed to army School Of the
Line" This school is the principal
one of the three military service
schools established at Fort Leaven-
worth. The other two schools, the
Army Staff college and the Signal
school, sprung from 1t.
This will be the third change In the
name since the school was started
20 years ago. When the school was
organized in May, 1881, 1t was desig-
mated "The school of Application FOR
Industry and Cavalry" 1t was chang
ed shortly afterward to Infantry ano
Cavalry school," There are severa
reasons for the new change in name
and one is that student officers from
all branches of the service, insteat
of only infantry and cavalry, atten'
It now.
The importance of the militar.
service schools here is increasing eacl
year. The rank of the student Off
GERS is higher than formerly. Befor
