Portland, ore, Jan. 25.-One sale
iof bluestem is reported on the basis
of $1.07 a bushel basis tldewater de-
livery and still another is reported
at $1.08 a bushel but the latter can
not be confirmed at this time. The
market for wheat is very firm, but so
little supplies are being offered that
prices as quoted are nominal. While
actual transactions have Of late been
made at these figures it is hard to
say exactly what the market Is for
so many different values are being Of
fered.
The oriental flour situation is all in
tumble. A mail report from the ori-
ent states that a Portland house
which received an order for $4,000
bags of flour and who purchased the
supplies from a Minneapolis mill and
then shipped 1t to the orient via New
York has come out loser by 100000
at least. According to the advice the
IIlUtstS DuICIdStI DClltfGu ne was
buying a certain brand called Red
Dog" which is milled on the coast,
and that the sellers believed the or
der meant Red Dog flour-a low
grade made only in the big eastern
mills. The flour was turned down
by the oriental purchaser and the
court trial decided that both parties
were to blame and that each was to
stand half the loss Then the flour
was sold at auction and was purch-
ased by Seattle man and shipped to
San Francisco, where it is stated to
have lost another $4,000 for the pur-
chaser.
The market was quiet on the Port
land board of trade today with on

Potato MarIset Is F'Irmcr.

There is a firmer tone in the local
potato market and an improvement
Is likewise noted in the south. For
best shipping stock buyers are still
offering as high as 1925 at country
shipping points but this price is
somewhat above a basis where ship
ments to the south would be profit
able at this time. The trade in gen.
eraI Is not disposed to look with ia
vor on these boosted values but the
latter have given the producer re-
newed courage and he is not willing
to sell under this figure If at all just
now. While it is a fell known fact
that the present shary advance in the
potato market here is due 10 fight
between several San Francisco hous-
es, the idea prevails among dealers
In general that the decreased supply
caused by freezing here and floods in
the California river districts, will
eventually work the market a frac-
tion or two higher. Sam Broaddua,
who Is now enroute back to Portland
from Fort Worth. Texas, where he
has been several months selling Ida
no potatoes in that market, writes
the commercial editor that every pre-
diction made in this paper early in the
season regarding a better demand for
potatoes here after the first of the
year has already been fulfilled.

TOO Many Animals.

1OO MANY AHhiiuis.
Portland Union Stockyards, Jan.
25.-There was quite a tingle Of
weakness in all lines of livestock lo-
caly today except perhaps, in sheep,
ais during the past As hours and
therefore trade there with prices is
nominal.
Run of hogs was fairly heavy in the
yards over Sunday and on this ac-
count the tone was not so firm and
sales of top stuff that would have
readily brought $7.25 at first glance
last week, were today sold at prices
from 81 to $7,15 and it was
exceedingly difficult to maintain
over 81.
While this showing in the hog
market is not exactly weak, the low
er price in some instances was due to
the overloaded condition of the live
stock market in other lines. As re-
CARDS the future of hog values here,
much depends upon the attitude of
the east. For the past few days there
has been a showing of weakness there
with some concession in the pri%S but
today an advance of sc to 10c is quot
ed there This may have a stiffen-
ing effect upon local values IL per-
sisted in for a while.
Much weakness In Cattle.
Over Sunday there continued a
very liberal run of cattle in the local
yards and this has resulted in a
weaker display of prices. While 1t
may be quite possible to obtain once
in while as high as S. for someth-
Ing select in steers, it would be in
deed hard to rigidly maintain any
value over that figure and dealers
assert that prices will likely run ar
ound $4.75 for a while. The follow
Ing opinions regarding the situation
are expressed by the varius commits
sion houses at the yards.

INDIAN ATHLETE is CRIPPLED.
Especial to The Sentinel. ]

Denver. June IA graduate of
Carlisle, the hero of many a hard
fought gridiron battle and consid-
cred one of the best all-around ath-
letes in the country less than three
years ago, Samuel Morris, full
blooded Indian, was crippled for life
last night when, under the influence
of fire water" he lay down beside
the Union Pacific tracks to sleep. A
passing train mashed his right hand
so badly that amputation proved
necessary.
Morris, native of Idaho, has been
in Denver for several weeks. His
fondness for strong drink got him
into trouble several times. He has
been arrested three or four times dur
ing the past few weeks. Only last
Friday he was arraigned as vag-
rant in Justice Gavin's court The
justice permitted him TO go upon the
promise that he would keep sober.
Instead of doing so. Morris. ii ap-
pears, got drunk again as soon as he
had been given his liberty. He ad-
mitted to Police Surgeon Ackley that
he lay down beside the tracks at
Twenty-third and Blake streets and
accidentally placed his hand on the
track. He was found, weak from
the loss of blood. at = O'Clock yester-

DEATH ENDS DEBAUCH.

Richmond. Va. June i7.-Joseph
NJ. Staten, bridge inspector for the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. who
has just returned from an inspection
tour in West Virginia. tells of the
remarkable death of eight Italian
laborers on the Piney creek branch of
the road. near the town of Raleigh,
following a wild debauch with a bar
rel of beer.
According to Staten. the men pur-
chased and set up the barrel of beer
in their shack in the mountains and
proceeded to drink their fill. Later
all eight were discovered lying about
on the beds and on the floor dead.
Due to the fact that a considerable
portion of the beer was still left in
the barrel, the conclusion was reach
ed that overindulgence had not caus-
ed the death of the men.
The barrel was taken into the yard
and the beer allowed To escape
through the bunghole. None of the
beverage was allowed to be drunk for
fear it had been poisoned. A large
rattlesnake was found in the bottom
of the barrel after the beer had been
drawn off. 1t is presumed that the
snake. in its death agony, injected
enough of its poison into the beer to
kill the men who drank it.

New York, June 17.-Discussion of
the political problem confronting the
country through the development of
power of the large corporation is
made in vigorous language by Former
President Roosevelt in his article in
this weeks Outlook.
Taking for his subject The Thral-
dom of Names Mr.. Roosevelt says
it behooves our people never to be
misled by designing men who appeal
TO the reverence for or antipathy
toward a given name in order to
achieve some alien purpose. The
rule of the mob. he declares, may be
as tyrannical and apprehensive as the
role of a single individual, and the
rule of an oligarchy. whether this
oligarchy is a plutocracy or bureau
cracy may be as sordid and blood
thirsty as that of mob; but the mob
leaders usually state that all that
they are doing is necessary in order
to advance the cause of liberty, while
the dictator and oligarcy are usually
defended upon the ground that the
course they follow is absolutely
necessary so as TO secure order.-e-
