Ely, however, realized the danger, re-

navigation is a factor that must be

it would be just as easy for an aero
plane to land on a ship as it is to de-
part, whether the ship was moving or

SEATTLE; PORTLAND
CENSUS GIVES FORMER The
LARGER POPULATION.
However, Both Cities Made Great
Gains During Past Ten Years
2S7,194 and 2o7,214 Respectively
Durand Says He Found Padding Done
by Both Cities and Made Reductions.

Population statistics of the thirteenth
census have been made public for the
following cities:
Portland, Ore, 2O7,214, an increase
of 116,7ss, or 1922 per cent, over co.
426 in 1900.
Seattle, Wash, 237, 1874, an increase
of 156, 1923, or 1914 per cent, over sO,671
in 1900.
In announcing the correct popula-
ton Census Director Durand issued
statements giving the results of the re-
enumeration made necessary in certain
districts of the two cities by evidences
of padding of the original figures.
"The original returns from Seattle
contained 24s,3s2 names, or 11,1Ss
more than the final figures" says Mr..
Durand. "This difference represents
names eliminated from various districts
as not entitled to enumeration and in
the case of one district, No. 81, the
difference between the original emu
meration and remuneration which
was found necessary.
Corrections were made in the
enumeration of Is districts out of a
total of 40. A considerable number of
other districts in which the original
returns indicated the possibility of in
correct enumeration were found to be
substantially correct.
"The original returns from Portland
contained 222,959 names, or 15,745
more than the final count, the latter
number being eliminated on a careful
rechecking of certain districts and the
entire RECOMMENDATION of two others.'
Mr.. Durand says that while it was
found necessary to eliminate a greater
or less number of names from con-
siderable number of enumeration dis
tricts in Portland, "The evidence in
dictates that in most cases the enumer-
ators were not consciously guilty of
frauds and it is also clear that the
supervisor, Mr.. Beach, did all that rea-
sonably could be expected to prevent
the padding of the census"
In both Portland and Seattle several
similar causes were found by the cen
sus bureau for the padding which led
to the recount.
A private organization in each city
in Portland perhaps more than one
organization, had slips printed contain
ing the census questions, and names
were added by generators from the
slips thus collected The organizations
in each case collected names of many
persons who "claimed not to have been
enumerated and to be entitled to emu.
meration." These slips, the census
bureau discovered, contained names of
many transients in the city and Others
declared not entitled to be counted.

Members.
Berlin.-The reichstag was occupied
Saturday with a discussion of the
speech made by Emperor William at a
provincial dinner at Koenigsburg on
August 20 during his tour of eastern
Germany.
The varied and conflicting senti-
ments aroused by his remarkable utter
ances intimating continued belief in
the divine right of kings was given
full play. The debate was bitter
throughout.
In his Koenigsburg speech the en-
peror, after saying that his grand
father had seen in himself the chosen
instrument of heaven, and so pro-
claimed that the Prussian crown was
bestowed upon him by Gods gift alone,
intimated that the convictions of EN-
peror William I and his own were iden-
teal, and added:
considering myself as the instru-
ment of the Master, regardless of pass
ing views and opinions, go my way,
which is solely devoted to the prosper
ity and peaceful development of our
fatherland.

to obtain the presidency by force, since
he was unable to do so by the votes OF

"This political movement will not ex

PRICESARE REDUCED.
ON MOST ALL KINDS OF MEAT
PRODUCTS IT'S SAID.
Wheat and Corn Also Much Cheaper
Flour Also Reduced-Chicago Whole
salers Claim Retailers Make 40 Per
Cent-Butter and Eggs Controlled by
a Trust and Hold Market Firm.

Chicago.-The packers wholesale
prices for food products now, as COM
pared with the maximum high prices
of the decade, which was in last Jan
uary, show a material reduction. The
dressed beef includes what is known as
{" No. ~ the best product. The fig
ures are for hundred weights, or in
pounds by the cent.
Beginning of the Drop.
The prices remained at the top until
well along in the spring, when the
influx of lambs and sheep caused the
first break. Cattle, which scared as
high as '$11 a hundredweight, began
to drop, and pork followed.
Wheat, which sold year ago at
Slip a bushel, is now 90 cents.
Corn, which sold at 70 cents, is now
AS cents.
The same percentage of declines ap-
plies to poultry. Chickens and turkeys
are 25 cents cheaper than year ago.
Bacon is standing like a stone wall;
it is selling retail at 35 cents per
pound, right at the top. This is ex-
planned by the packers in the state
ment that very few bacon hogs are
coming into market. The bacon hog
must be lean and the run of hogs now
are away above the average weight. 1t
is only a matter of time until bacon
must come down. 1t has advanced
from the normal price of IA cents to the
high point.
Flour to Come Down.
Flour is a dollar a barrel under the
price in January and is scheduled for
a big decline. Although the country
has raised a normal wheat crop there
is no export demand. Other wheat
raising countries raised bumper crops
and are underselling the United States
in all consuming countries. This coun-
try has 2O0,OOOO0O bushels for export
1t is going out and it is heavy weight
on the market. Wheat declined 20
cents and corn Is cents since July l.
The explanation of the onrush of food
supplies is given thus: Three years
ago prices for hogs and cattle were so
low that farmers took to automobiles
and gave up stock raising. Then came
food scarcity with record high prices
This caused the farmer to about face
and for eight months he has been rails
ing cattle and hogs as he never did
before.
Retailers Resist.
While the wholesale prices are de,
clining retailers are stubbornly resist
ing the idea of lower prices. Here in
Chicago it is not forgotten that the
national organization of butchers made
study of conditions and proved that
the local retail grocers and butchers
made 40 per cent profit on their sales
This was last spring.
Butter and eggs are trust controlled
goods that refuse to come down.
