English Financiers Plan Me-
dunn of Exchange Through
Canada.
MORGAN SENDS ST, 100000
TOCORRESPONDENT THERE
New York Denies That Cecilie's
Treasure Will Go to Ontario's
Capital for Deposit.

LONDON. August 12.-The Bank of
England has made arrangements
through which 1t will be prepared to re-
ceive gold in Ottawa and make pay
ments against it in London. It is not
understood that branch bank will be
opened in the Canadian city, but the
gold will be deposited with the minister
of finance at Ottawa.
The effect Of the arrangement will be
to provide means of remittance from
North America to London without the
shipment of the gold across the Attain
tic.
The plan is capable of extension to

be under the control, Of the enemy
1t Is understood that the $1O,OOOOOO OF
specie which made the voyage across the
Atlantic and back on board the Kron-
prfnzessin Cecilie Is to be sent to Ottawa
Deny Gold Going to Ottawa.
NEW YORK, August 12.-1t is denied
in financial circles here that the en-
tire amount Of the $40, 200. 900 and more
gold taken from the Kronprinzessin
Cecilie is to be sent to Ottawa J. p
Morgan & Co., 1t is understood, have
recently consigned s1,000,00O gold to
the Canadian capital, but other bankers
in the Kronprinzessin Cecilie shipment,
recently returned here, expressed the
opinion that only a small part of that
sum will be shipped across the border.
There were further Indications in
New York today that any movement
looking to large shipments of gold to
Canada. whether for the Bank Of Eng
land or for any other purpose, will be
unpopular in banking circles New
York bankers deem it of the highest
importance that gold be held here, re-
gardless Of foreign obligations. There
are other ways, 1t was pointed out, of
meeting our debts in London, and these,
1t was argued, should be resorted to.
Money rates and foreign exchange
were quotably easier today, but ac-
tually without material change All
time rates continued on a 6 to per
cent basis, with some offerings at the
lower figure. Exchange brokers were
doing a little more business with Lon
don, but nothing like a general move
ment in that direction is probable for
some time.
In confirming the report of the ship
ment of s1,0oo.0Oo gold to Ottawa, J.
P. Morgan & Co. said the sum had been
intended for shipment to the Bank of
England, at London, before the be-
ginning Of the war. It was diverted to
Ottawa, the firm said, because it was
deemed inexpedient to risk such a sum
on the sea at this time.

Cares for Germans in Canada.

German citizens in Canada are to re-
ceive the same measure of protection
at the hands Of the State Department
as are British subjects in Germany.
Having assumed responsibility for the
welfare of these citizens, the State De-
partment has sent instructions to all Of
the American consular officers in
Canada to look after the Germans and
Austrians there precisely as 1t has sent
such instructions to the American
embassies in London, Paris and st.
Petersburg The absence of a diplo-
matte representative of the United
States in Canada obliged the State De-

The Hague Rulings
The radio restrictions imposed by the
not in entire harmony with The Hague
conventions to which the United States
is signatory. The second Hague con-
vention on the, rights and duties of neu-
trails provides that neutral government
is not called upon to deny to any bellig-
erent the use of telephone or telegraph
cables or wireless apparatus owned by 1t
or by companies individuals.
1t also is contended on behalf OF Ger
many that the measures adopted by the
United States with regard to radio,
though intended to be wholly impartial.
are really resulting in discrimination to
the advantage of the French, British and
Russians and to the disadvantage OF Ger
many and Austria.
The State DEPARTMENTS position in this
controversy was explained by an official,
who said that another Hague proviso for
bids bellfgerentS to use wireless stations
established by them before the war on
the territory of a neutral power for pure
ly military purposes, and which has not
been opened for the service Of public mes

The evident intention OF the Germans 10

operation a violation Of the above quoted
provision Of The Hague conventions.
Censored All Wireless.
It is admitted that the censorship OF
the wireless stations most seriously az
fects Germany. which has no direct
cable communication. and is dependent
entirely upon wireless. Great Britain
and her allies can communicate by
cable or from Canada. However, 1t Is
contended for the United States that
municipal law does not permit CEN
sorship of cables. and besides. these
are not being used solely for military
purposes Moreover, the United States
has not made the censorship of wire
less discriminatory, but has censored
all wireless stations of whatever own
ership.
position regarding the wireless sta
tions is sound. both from the stand
point of municipal and international
law. and there seems little inclina-
ton to consent to the reopening OF
the German stations. at least on the
same basis as it was proposed to ope-
rate them at the outbreak Of hostili-
ties.

LEN A. MATTESON.

The body of Len Matteson, FORM
er Heppner boy, whose death was
the result of an accidental shot, ac-
cording to reports received from his
home at Shoshoni, Wyoming, where
he was engaged in the sheep busi-
ness, was shipped to Heppner and
the funeral was conducted from the
First Christian church last Sunday
morning by the pastor, Rev. T. s.
Handsaker. The body was inferred
in the Rhea creek cemetery.
Just how Mr.. Matteson came to
his death is not fully known by rel
atives here, but from the meager re-
ports that have been received it is
concluded that he was alone at the
time Of the shooting, as he said in
the note which he left before he ex-
pired, that the shooting was acci-
dental. Frank Matteson, brother Of
the deceased, and Adam Knoblock
have left for Shoshoni, where they
W III lOOh lutO tuc dudlIo VI tll6 ut-
ceased, and may be absent for some
time, as 1t is understood that Mr..
Matteson had extensive holdings in
that part of Wyoming.
Len. A. Matteson was born in
Jackson county, Oregon, almost
thirty-nine years ago. His parents
were Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Matteson.
They came to Morrow county sever
al years ago, where the deceased
grew to manhood. For the past sew
en- or eight years he had been en-
gagged In the sheep business in Wy
oming, where he had accumulated
extensive properties. He is sur
vived by his mother, Mrs. Adam
Knoblock, one sister, Mrs. Chas Full
ler, and two brothers, Frank Of

BREWER|Es WILL
CHANGE TO CANNER|ES
Yakima Brewery Will Save Thous-
ands of Tons of Fruit That Go
to Waste in That Valley
Every Year.

From the Portland Oregonian we
take the following:
MANY breweries in Oregon and
Washington will be turned into pack
ing and canning plants, ice plants
and other branches of industry when
the prohibition laws force them out
of business at the end Of next year,
says Harry c. McAllister, manager
Of the North Yakima Brewery, who
was in Portland yesterday on busi-
ness.
We already have made tentative
plans for converting our brewery into
a fruit-preserving and fruit canning
establishment" he said.
Thousands of tons of fruit 60 to
waste in the Yakima valley every
year. / believe that we can arrange
to buy this at reasonable rates and
pack it into cans. There is an un-
limited market for superior grades of
canned fruits and no market at all
for the Gull fruit that now goes to
waste in the orchards.
II believe we can handle all this
to advantage in our plant, as we can
take care of the by-products. We
are prepared to make vinegar, grape
juice and other extracts of fruit.
at is our intention to continue in
the brewing business until the new
law goes into effect January l, 1916.
In the meantime, we will perfect our
plans for utilizing our plant. l be-
lieve many other brewing concerns
in the Northwest will do likewise. "
Mr.. McAllister says that the North
Yakima Brewing Company will not
suffer severely from the effects of
prohibition. 1t has assets that would
enable the company to liquidate with
out loss even should 1t not be able to
utilize its plant for other purposes as
is proposes to do. Some breweries in
the State of Washington are hard hit,
however, he says.
