WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
Receipts and Sales at Portland Union
Stock Yards.

PORTLAND, July S.-Receipts for
the week have been: Cattle 1911;
calves 291; hogs 1926; sheep 4297.
The cattle market throughout was
steady, with COWS and butcher stuff
in strong demand Calves sold well,
and smooth steers, not too heavy in
weight, sold at 1925.
The hog market was 10c to 15c
higher. with an lnslstent demand for
more at the higher prices.
The sheep run was adequate to the
demand in number, but there was a
lack of quality that characterized the
offerings, and in consequence prices
appeared weak AS matter of fact,
good sheep brought good prices, and
with anything like quality the market
was steady to strong.
Local livestock people are quite ex-
ercised over the reported damage
done to the corn crop in the Middle
West. The usual furry of the year,
as applied to corn prices, seems TO be
backed up by hot, dry weather and the
western part of the corn belt does not
look for much more than half crop.
If this shortage is definitely fiNed by
reason of a lack of timely rains,
large number Of feeders will be
thrown on the market and 1t will be
possible for farmers IN Idaho and
Eastern oregon to purchase cattle to
consume their hay. Pasturage has
been extremely poor in the Middle
West, and as a result Iowa and IlIi-
nois, which have excellent crop pros
poets, have filled their feed lots with
lower priced cattle. This may make
a more available supply for a West
ern movement.
Representative sales have been as
follows: steers, 1886 to $6.25; cows,
Sc to $3.50: calves SIS to $3.50; hogs,
s7.25; stays. S5.25; bulls 81; lambs,
$685. to Sc; wethers $3.50 to 1915.

GAME WILL BE PROPAGATED
state Warden Finley, Recently APP
pointed, Announces New Policy.

'.The policy of the State Game War
den, in the past, said William l.
Finley. recently appointed to that po-
sition, "has been characterized very
largely by policing The belief has
been general that Oregon has enough
game and that its protection is all that
is necessary AS a matter of fact.
game cannot be made abundant by
making and enforcing laws. We have
not enough game, and in spite of
protecting what we have, we observe
that there is less and less every year,
1t is absolutely necessary TO have the
influence of the people and the farm
ers in particular back of the move
ment, but, above all, the infusion of
new blood, meaning the propagation
of game, as well as its protection.
1T will be one of the policies of
the present warden to continue the
work of protection with igor and an
efficient force of deputy wardens.
Another and equally as important a
feature will be the propagation of
game The National government is
doing valuable work in restocking the
streams of the state with salmon,
while the propagation of trout is left
largely to the state. The establish
ment of trout hatcheries will be one
of our first efforts. Along this line,
it is well to state that one change in
the work will be to keep and feed
trout until they are 2 " inches long,
and able to protect themselves, in
stead of releasing them when they are
an inch in length. AS far as the funds
collected from anglers licenses will
permit, this work of Matching trout
will be prosecuted.
I'm the line of game, We intend to
introduce $50 pair of Chinese pleas
ants, direct from China. for the new
blood This will be done while the
two years closed season is in force.
In addition to protecting those we al
ready have, we will propagate new
birds We are already in negotiation
with parties to furnish 100 pair of
Reeves pheasants, to be released on
reservations that will be established
from time to time"

Robbers Loot Tea, S. D., Bank.

Sioux Falls, S. ID. - Three men
were arrested in a room yer a saloon
in this city on the charge of having
been implicated in the robbery of the
Farmers Savings bank at Tea. They
positively refused to give their names
and they have not yet been identified.
They are believed to be members of
the Daily gang of thieves, two or three
members of which were arrested in
Sioux Falls about a year ago. Two
of the men who aided in the robbery
at Tea are still at liberty.
With $642.10 of stolen money, which
the officers found in possession of the
three craftsmen, were also found
three guns of heavy caliber, some soap
and other material used by safe blow
ers.
The money recovered "a less than
half of what was taken from the bank.
The remainder of the money evidently
has been cashed or is in possession Of
the two yet at large.

CHICAGO ASSOCIATION REFUSES
MEMBERSHIP TO IA SALE
STREET NATIONAL.
TAKES CHARGE HIMSELF
No Sign Given That Institution viii
Later Be Observation-Disclosures
of Management the
Reason.

Chicago, Illinois.-Members of the
clearing house committee Of the Chi
cago Clearing House association de.
Clined TO admit to membership the La
Sale Street National bank. the insti-
tuition dominated by Senator Lorimer.
Technically there vas no application
before the committee for admission.
Upon advice, Mr.. Lorimer had refrain
ed from filing an official request. He
had, however, secured interviews with
different members of the committee
and to them presented his wishes and
arguments in favor of admission. His
arguments were without influence.
A few days ago Mr.. Lorimer went
so far as to assert that he would seek
legally to compel the association to
admit him to membership. This threat
failed to force favorable action by
the clearing house committee. The
clearing house is a voluntary organ
i%2ation.
The committee refrained not only
from voting to admit the La Sale
Street National, but also from giving
any advice which at a later date would
give the bank an opportunity to claim
recognition.
The Corn Exchange National bank,
which has been clearing for the La
Sale Street National since the latter's
organization, has served the third no.
tlce of it's intention to withdraw as
clearing house agent. The Corn Elk
change gave notice that it would not
clear for the La Sale after May 20.
At the request of the management Of
the La Sale Street National, the clear
ing privilege was extended until June
/. This gave the Lorimer people op-
portunity to make other arrangements
without being placed in the attitude
Of having been unduly thrown out.
The position of the clearing house
committee results from several bank
ing obligations, among them being the
character of loans, the character of
the management and the probability
Of improvement in a possible proba-
tionary period of six months. Mr..
Lorimer says he will take charge of
the bank, displacing C. B. Munday, the
first vice president and the de facto
manager of the institution.
The stock of the La Sale Street
bank, which was sold to subscribers at
$125 for a share of the par value Of
500, is now quoted by the bank stock
brokers at $111 bid. No formal state
ment has been issued by the bank as
to the plans for the future.

The presidents denial of the pardon
applications of Morse and Walsh does
not mean that they must stay in prison
until the end of their terms. Walsh
began a sentence of five years in the
Leavenworth ~penitentiary in January.

is eligible for parole next September,
the presidents action having no bear
ing whatever upon future application
for parole. Morse began his 15-year
term in the Atlanta penitentiary in
January, 1910, also. In denying his
application the president granted
leave to renew it after Jan. !, 1913
Under the parole law Morse would
be eligible for release in 1915.
