TACOMA MARKET LETTER.

Wheat-The market is holding quiet.
While the influences of European de-
velopments are the dominant factor in
influencing the speculative situation,
the effects being exerted upon export
values are not consequential as APP
piled to the local situation, for there
are no evidences of a pressure to buy,
despite the reports of war clouds gath
erng and likely to break at any mo-
ment. There is, in fact, very little
doing in the way of sales at the pres
emit moment. There is some buying for
covering business already placed, and
semblance of activity is maintained
in moving the big crow, but, aside
from the moderate business doing with
California, new engagements are not
of consequence.
With the approach of the harvest in
the southern hemisphere, Europe is in
clined to await developments and is
buying only to cover current require
ments, though the evident shortage in
the harvests will make it necessary to
make very considerable acquisitions.
while, with the distribution to Japan,
with possible development of West
Coast business later on, the trade is
not inclined to be apprehensive re-
garding the situation. Puget Sound
exports were fairly representative for
October, totalipg 1,103,329 bushels, but
there are still big holdings at the in
terror, as well as at tidewater, to be
moved.
Receipts are moderate, totaling but
42O cars during the week, while prices
are unchanged from the figures quoted
a week ago, at SIC for bluestem and
zoe for club, though sales have been
made during the week at better figures
Flour-The condition of the market
shows very little variation from week
to week. While there was a good ex
port business booked early, the condi
tlons in this department have been rela
lively quiet for some time, and ship
ments are not reaching record totals
Foreign flour exports from the Puget
Sound district during October were
267,53 barrels. The price remains
practically unchanged at $3.50 base
Patents are held at former figures, with
a fair business passing.
Feed-There are no special changes
in the market for feedstuffs. Corn i.
quoting 81 lower, at $35, and the mar
ket is relatively weak. Oats showed
tendencies toward firmness for time
but there have been no changes from
$26@27. Hay is stiu holding strong
at the recent advances, while millfeeC
is steady.

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

Butter-The butter market is
steadily going mp, on account OF
creamery receipts shrinking every
where. There have been advances in
both Washington and eastern cream
cries of from 1 to 2 cents. Indications
point to a higher market this winter
than last. At New York the market
continues exceptionally firm. There
was just enough this week to supply
the demand. The same condition pre-
walls at Chicago.
Cheese-The cheese situation is in
somewhat the same condition as that

cream brick and easterns have ad
vanced. Limburger has dropped g

Eggs-Local quotations remain un
changed and the market is steady tC

demand at unchanged prices. The
market on fancy gathered eggs
continues high and firm; the storag,
egg situation shows little change.
Poultry-The holiday demand hal
not started yet, and the only rise il
price over last week is p cent OF
geese. There is slight upward
tendency and an advance is expected
next week.
Fresh Meats-Prices remain un

Mania for Killing Boys.

Buffalo, N. Y.-Confession of at
least three murders and admission
that there are still more" is the start
ling disclosure contained in postal
cards from the slayer of 6-year-old
Joseph Josephs, received by the police
and made public here. The murder
of the Josephs boy, whose entire body,
badly decomposed, was found Saturday
in a cesspool near his home in Lacka-

Rocky Mountain
Suggestions on Window Dressing.

Perhaps no other two months of the
year offer as great an opportunity for
the window trimmer in which to show
his originality or talent as November
and December. The base of the display
is before the trimmer, he has only to
work it out. Ideas and designs for a
Thanksgiving display are numerous, so
many, in fact, that the difficulty lies in
deciding upon one that will make the
most attractive display, says Chicago
Retailers Journal.
Retail grocers should not overlook the
few weeks from now to Thanksgiving
for this work. People do not wait
until a few days before Thanksgiving
to buy goods for this day of thanks
giving. However, the best display
should be reserved until about a week
before the holiday, so that the con
sumner will Immediately conceive the
idea that it is time to buy goods fol
her table for this day.
Displays trimmed in this month
should be bright and CHEEKY, warm col
ors, for the days at this time become
rather dreary and cherries.
We would suggest as the colors fol
the background of display, a turkey
red and white, as these are strong col
ors and their combination makes then
attractive.
A winter scene is often used as ;
background for a Thanksgiving display
The floor of the window is covered will
cotton batting with tinsel sprinkleC
over this, in imitation of snow TIL,
background of the window is compose
of lunches of paper, cut about one
quarter of an inch wide. This pape
can be purchased from any firm hand
ling crepe paper or can be cut by tn
one using it. 1t is well to leave abou
quarters of foot at the top un
cut. This paper of light colors, sucl
as white, cream or drab, represent
snow, frost and icicles, and it is sur
prising to see the effect it gives a dis
play.

TAFT'S 'SWANSONc'
RESPONDED TO THE TOAST 1.-THE
PRESIDENT LOTUS CLUB
IN NEW YORK CITY.
DECLARED HIS BEST SPEECH BY MANY
Laughed at Election Outcome and
Smiled When He Spoke of Plans
Advanced by Presdent-Eect
Wilson-Sarcasm for Bryan.

New York.-President Taft sang his
'Swan Song" as chief executive of the
nation Saturday night AS the guest
of the Lotus club the president re-
sponded to the toast, THE President"
in a speech which many of his hearers
considered the most remarkable he has
ever made.
He shifted from grave to gay and
from the philosophy which he said
four years in the White House had
taught him to the discussion of the
problems which face the nation. He
laughed at the outcome of the cleo
ton, smiled when he spoke of some
of the plans of the president-elect and
touched with gentle sarcasm William
Jennings Bryan.
His chief regret, the president said
was that he had been unable to in
fluence the United States senate to
ratify the arbitration treaties with
France and Great Britain. In spite Of
that fact he asked his audience to be
lieve that he would leave office with
the deepest gratitude to the American
people for the honor they had giver
him, and with the belief that enough
progress had been accomplished in his
administration to warrant his feeling
that he had done real good for hi:
country.

these commodities remain unchanged,
with the exception of an advance of
p cent on kips. The market is steady

Fruits and Vegetables.
Apples-Everywhere the apple mar
lct is glutted and growers are having
trouble marketing their crops. The
shortage of cars has been a serious
hindrance to shippers. At New York
the receipts this week were heavy and
the market generally quiet. Local
prices are practically the same as last
week.
Cranberries-The cranberries being
sold now are of a better grade than
those sold last week, and consequently
trife higher. The demand is good.
p cent and bluestem has fallen a
cent. This is probably due to the large
crops in this country and to the pros
pect of large crops in Argentina. Heavy
holders are liquidating and selling out.
Flour-Quotation on flour remain
unchanged, with the market easy in
sympathy with the decline of wheat

Feed-Prices on feed are stiffening;
feed wheat, barley and oats have gone
up 81 per ton. This is probably due
to the heavy rains and bad roads keep

Saturday not to resign his office to
