LA TOILETTE TO TURN
DOWN WISCONSIN COLLEAGUE

Washington, March 11,-When the
former but inadequate commission of
Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin
reached Washington, Senator La Fol-
lette, his colleague, refused to present
it. Now the regular commission, in
disputable and incontestible, is in
Washington. 1t is said that La Fol-
lette will decline also to present this
one.
Nor will he escort him to the vice
presidents stand on March Is to be
sworn. This will be a severe breach
of senatorial etiquette. 1t is the uni
versal rule that an incoming senator
shall be presented by his colleague
and stand with him when the oath
of office Is given. Only once in re-
cent years has such procedure been
violated.

VANCOUVER HOTELS TURN
DOWN BLACK JOHNSON

Vancouver, Z. c., March 11.-Van-
couver hotel proprietors drew the col
or line very strictly last night on Jack
Johnson, the champion pugilist and
his white wife. At the st. Francis he
was told the hotel was full to over
flowing. The clerk was very sorry,
but "really Mr.. Johnson, it could not
be helped"
The same performance was repeated
at five other hotels. Johnson took
the first rundown gracefully, but
lost his temper and as he went from
hotel to hotel, became abusive. Late
in the evening he obtained accommo-
dation at the Dominion. a down town
house.

Portland Union Stockyards, Mar. 10
The hide market, which was SC
firm and high during recent days
has turned extremely dull and in
many instances lower range Of val
ues Is quoted. Anticipation OF the
placing of hides on the free from duty
list as recommended by the congress
sional committee, has caused almost
n complete cessation OF buying in the
east and this same tone is now re-
Elected in western markets.
Wool Still Demanded.
Contracting for the coming clip of
wool continues in the eastern dist
rlcts Of Oregon and Washington and
I'm Idaho as well as at Willamette val
ley points, but the deals closed in the
latter section are small in number,
the principal objects of wool buyers
being to get most of the interior clip
so az to break up the scheme of max
ing Chicago the wool center. If the
scheme cannot be broken up the buy
ers plan to delay its effect as long
as possible.
Grain Goes Up.
Grain futures took a turn for the
better today and for the March de-
livery tthe bids were ! i5c higher at
Sl07k although holders were not
asking more than S10S, the same
proce as yesterday April mounted
the same sum higher as the March,
moving to s1.OS1a bid and s1O9 ask.
Coarse grains were flrmer with oats
sharply higher but with no change in
the barley.
Cash wheat as well as other grains,
show strength but there Is no ma
terial change in the price. Quota
tions are nominal at the best.

CANADA GETS GRAIN.
Meeting just Held in Boston to Study
Means of Relief.

Boston. March ia special ses-
sion of men interested in the grain
export trade has just been held here
for the purpose of devising plans to
overcome the growing supremacy of
Canadian ports 1t is admitted that
Boston and New York have lost a
large part of this trade, and that Mon
treal, st. John, and other Canadian
cities are the gamers by the defec-
ton.
1t Is alleged that there are two rea-
sons for this change in the routine of
grain for export. one is the existence
of the Welland canal, which provides
an all-water route from the great
lakes to Europe via the Canadian
ports. The other is the unwillingness
of American railroads to make ade-
quate reduction in rates which will
give Boston or New York an opportu-
nifty to compete on an equal footing
with Canadian ports When the pro-
posed Georgian bay canal is built it
will give Canada an additional ad-
vantage. as it will shorten by many
miles the water route from Chicago,
Duluth and Fort William to the St
Lawrence river.
Railroad Rates Figure.
Even in winter, when Boston
should get a large share of the grain
export business, high rates of Ameri-
can railroads prevent grain from COM
ing here. When the ice on the st.
Lawrence makes navigation impos-
sible, export grain must be sent to
some open port. The business does
not come to Boston, for the Canadian
roads make much cheaper through
rates.

me Of a peace oficer I knew a number
Of years ago In western Kansas. This
officer was entirely fearicss-in fact,
the kind OF chap who would have
charged hades with a single bucket Of
water To look down into the barrel
OF a gun In the other fellows hand
was ~ placidly accepted an AFFAIR for
him rs to light his pipe. He was sent
for q day.
WHATS the mattery he asked
Cowboy In that ROOM said a citi-
Een. designating the place. He's Wild
and dangerous. He's locked himself In.
and were afraid he'll break out and
do us harm
so this of,cer opened the door OF
the room aud looked In. The cowboy
had a six shooter Ia u hand and a
stick OF dynamite 10 the other and
calmly remarked that be would turn
them both loose 10 case the oficer
came into the room. The officer con-
sidered the thing for a minute. Then
he backed away and rs he did 20 re-
